A SECOND MEETING.
The Earl of Stanhope nnd the Trust-
i ing Highwaymun.
One night when tin? Etui uf SHr-dope
was walking uluiu- lu (ho Kentish
lanes u lunu jumped out uf thu Lodge,
leveled a pistol mid demanded Ids
purse.
''My gooil man, 1 uavo no money
with mo," sakl Lord Stnnhnpo In hl9
remarkably Blow tones. The rubber
laid Ivimls on his watch.
"No, 7 Ionl Stanhope went on; "that
watch jou nuisL nut hare. It wax giv
en to me by 0110 I love. It la worth
.100. If yon will trust me, I will go
bnck to (.'hovelling ami bring a 100
. noto nnd place It lu the hollow of that
; tree I cannot lose my watch."
Tuo man did trust him. The carl did
' bring the note. Years after Lord Stan
hope was Rt h city dinner, and next to
blm sat a London alderman of great
wealth, n tmui widely respected. Uo
anil the earl talked of ninny things
and found each other mutually enter
taining. Next day Lord Stanhope received a
.' letter, out of which dropped a 100
noto. "It waa your lordship's kind
lo'an of this sum," raid the letter, "that
started me In life and enabled me to
havo the hmior of sitting next to your
lordship at dinner."
A strango story, but the Sinn hopes
are a strange race, and things happen
to them that never did or could occur
to other people. London Spectator.
A TURKISH LEGEND.
The Red Rose Sprang From a Drop of
Mohammed's Blood.
"A tiuly tvlLlous Turk, lool.s Ujion
the rose Willi great revennieo," said
a florist, "The ruo Is beyond ques
tion tho prettiest llowcr that blooms,
and It was lamsidered by tho Turks
ninny years before the conquest of
Grnnntla. There Is n religious legend
generally believed in throughout Tur
key that the red rose sprang from a
drop of the great prophet Mohammed's
blood. Everything beau:iful in nature
Is ascribed to bim. The Turks, there
fore, have great reverence for the
flower nnd allow It to llooni and die
Untouched, except ou stnte occasions
and for the purpose of 'raking rose
water. .
"After the coiuiuest by the Turks
they would not worship In any church
until the walls were cleansed a: d
washed with rosewater and thus purl
fled by the blotd of tho prophet. ;t
la used on the body for the same pur
pose. A Turk whose conscience h
stung by some act or deed he lias com
mitted will caress and pay reverence
to the rose to appease the wrath of
the prophet and Allah.
"With these ideas Inculcated In him
from youth It would shock blm severe
ly to see the pretty flower strewn In
the path of a bridal couple, thrown on
the public stage or banked up In hun
dreds nt a Well reception or party to
be crashed and spoiled in an evening."
Notes on 8peed,
. The maximum speed acquired by the
average person in swimming comfort
ably la thirty-nine inches a second.
While oarsmen in an eight oared boat
acquire a speed of 107 inches in a sec
ond. Skaters average from nine to
1 fen yards a second. The horse can
- gallop sis miles In an hour for a con
siderable length of time. The swift
est dog in the world, the borzoi, or
Bussian wolfhound, bag made record
1 runs at the rate of seventy-five feet In
; a second, while the gazelle has shown
-measured speed of more than eighty
' feet a second, which would give it a
trpeed of 4,800 feet in a minute If it
eould keep It up. The whale struck
vy a harpoon has been known to dive
at the rate of 300 yards a minute. A
species of falcon known as the wan
dering falcon flies from north Africa
$ northern Germany in one unbroken
flight, making the distance in eleven
v nours.
Rules of Sleep.
" Those who think most, who do most
vb,rain work, require most sleep, and
time "saved" from necessary sleep is
Infallibly destructive to mind, body
and estate. Give yourself, your chll--aren,
your servants give all that are
under you the fullest amount of sleep
they will take by compelling them to
f to bed at some regular early hour
and to rise in the morning the moment
they awake, and within a fortnight na
ture, with almost the regularity of the
' rising sun. will unloose the bonds of
'sleep the moment enough repose has
been secured for the wants of the sys
tem. That is the only safe and sufll
ident rule, and. as to the question bow
much sleep any one requires, each
most be a rule for himself. Great na-

ShUade'jlaa Record.;
Dlplomotlo.
The lata Lord Httvlle used to say
that high diplomatists had always to
be on their guard against Intriguing
women, mainly Itiisshin agents, who
would uso any wile to extract Infor
mation. Paring the Itusso-Turklsh
war, when Ktirope was always on the
vergo uf a crisis and ltusslan states
men were most anxious to know what
England would do under glveu circum
stances, a lady came up to hlin sud
denly nt a ball and said:
"I hear that the Russians have inade
a forced march and entered Constanti
nople." hoping, uo doubt, that he
would be surprised Into some Indis
creet expression.
lie merely replied:
.. "ludeed! And I suppose- the sultan
lias conferred on them the order of
the Turkish bat hi"
Tho lady continued gravely:
"And they say lu Paris that if Kim
Innd does not Interfere tho eastern
question Is settled In favor of Itussla."
"And that." replied Ills excellency,
"Is, I suppose, tho new Judgment of
Tarls."
The Raising of Rice.
The cultivation of rice extends back
Into tho dim past, and there are uo nil
llienllo records as to when It llrst be
gan. Evidence points, however, to the
Chinese having boon among the ear
liest people to cultivate. It. and such
great value was attached to It that In
(he annual ceremonial sowing uf Im
portant plants inaugurated by the F.in
Hror ('blunting so far back in the past
as 2S00 I!. C. the rice had to be sown
only by the emperor himself, while the
four other plants of Hit roiimny
mght be sown by the princes of Ills
family. In India rice has been culti
vated from lime Immemorial. It wns
Introduced at an early period Into
Syria, Egypt nnd other parts of north
ern Africa. In mure modern times rice
has been sown in Spain, France and
llaly. the llrst cultivation in the lust
mimed country being slated to have
been near 1'lsa In MilS. The plant Is
believed to have been introduced Into
America In HH7. when Sir William
Herkeley raised a crop of sixteen
bushels from half a bushel of seed.
The Waiter't Tip.
"Splitting a live dollar bill with a
waiter when you reach a hotel nnd
promising him the other pice when
you leave If well served Is a poor
game," said n veteran waiter lit 0110
of New York's biggest hotels
"A man tried It 011 mo mice, and It
made me sore. 1 took pains to serve
III m poorly, showing that I did tint
en re for his money. I was so careless
that when he was leaving he refused
me the other half. I had him sized
up for a cheap skate, so 1 pointed out
to It! in that the piece he. had was 110
good to blm as It was and offered to
buy It from 111 11) for PI. He thought
deeply a minute and declined. Then
I offered to sell my half for $.1. Soine
hov or other tills annealed to him.
uuit be bought it and seemed happy.
) I'll li;t he hasn't stopped figuring out
I jet whether he won or lost. One
thing he's sure of be didn't tip the
walter."-New York Sun.
A Gentle Hint.
A certain butcher is renowned
timing his contemporaries for the
iiinlnttiesa and originality of some of
bis remarks. On a road leading to a
neighboring parish he one day met ft
gentleman who at the time owed blm
for some moat. After a salutation the
gentleman remarked:
"That's a Hue fat dog you have. Al
exander."
"Sae weel be may, sir." was the re
ply, "for he has an easy conscience
and is oot o' debt, and that's mnir
than you or I can say."
The bint was taken, and the butcher
gol his money next day. London An
