It was in 1884 that Mr. and Mrs. Bent
began their work together by making
explorations along the shores of Greece.
The next year they went through the 22
Cyclades isles and carried a good many
relics back to the British museum. The
year 1885 was partly spent in Sancos,
Patmos and other islands of the Grecian
archipeiago and 1886 in Egypt, Rhodes
and Karpalthos. In 1887 they went back
to Egypt, visiting Thasos, an island near
Thrace, where they found some valuable
statues, which were stolen from them on
their homeward journey by the Turks.

John R. Proctor, the New United State*
Civil Service Commissioner.
John R. Proctor, who has lieen ap
pointed to fill the vacancy in the United
States civil service commission, occa
sioned by the summary removal of
George D. Johnston, is a native and resi
dent of Kentucky, and up to a year ago
had filled the position of state geologist
rfor a number of years, retiring finally
because of the failure of the legislature
” to make an appropriation for the support
of the office. His services in the geolog
ical survey of the state were very valua
ble, his, reports being everywhere recog
nized as models of accuracy and his geo
logical and topographical map consid
ered the best ever made. During the
past summer %Ir. Proctor has been act
ing as a judge in the department of
mines at the Columbian exposition, and
he was selected to write the report on
the coals of the world, which is still in
course of preparation.

the coal and iron fields of Edmonson and
Grayson counties, attracting public at

about that time he made the first ex
periments in photography by magnesium
lights in the Mammoth cave, a process
which he and a fellow experimenter
patented, and from which he derived a
royalty for a considerable period.

Mixing the Fees.
An amusing incident has just come to
light anent the recent marriage of a
prominent young railroad man to an
up town belle. As is usual on such oc
casions, the arrangements, including
tbe financial end of the transaction in
hearts, were left Jo the best man, him
self a well known club man and a
cricketer of local repute. The story
that is now going the rounds, and which
is creating considerable merriment,
deals wholly with the part played by
the latter young man. By some unac
countable contretemps the youth in
question delivered to the organist the
magnificent sum of SSO, while the shock
headed youngster who supplied the
wind for the instrument was gladdened
by the gift of $lO.
When it came to the clergymau, how
ever, the lavish expenditure previously
made had so depleted the nuptial funds
feat only $2 remained. With unblush
ing effrontery and perfect sang froid
the best man tendered the two plunks
to the dqminie, whose feelings can bet
ter be imagined than described.
The the wedding was
the most the season, while
the shock who supplied the
wind characterizes!, us “ hot stuff. ” It
would be interesting to know what the
clergyman who tied
about it. —Philadelphia Record.
Navigation of the Dead sea.
At length the Dead sea is to be navi
gated, and two sailing boats, one rather
large aud heavy for cargo and the other
smaller and neater for passengers, have
just been conveyed from Jaffa to Jeru
salem by rail and thence to the Dead sea
by road. The boats belong to the sul
tan, as does also the Dead sea, which
forms part of the crown property, and it
is Abdul Hamid’s intention to turn to
good account the salt, bitumen and sul
phur that abound there.
