VICTORIA AS A CHILD.
Rnminisccncos of I lie Composer oi
" Knthleon Mnvournoon."
lYof, l'\ Niehollg Crouch, com
poser of "Kathleen Mavourneen,"
recalls reminiscences of the younger
days of Quern Victoria. I [o was an
attache of (lie royal family »s a mu
sician, having been a member of the
royal household band. Prof. Crouch
says he. remembers Queen Victoria
when she was seven or eight years
old.
"The room in which the rehearsals
of the hand toolc place," he said,
"was located so that persons from
many apartments in the palace could
enter it from all sides. More Vic
toria and her cousins romped and
played, and she was as free as any
child on tlie streets of Hultimore.
Site looked like a healthy country
girl, pretty and innocent. Her
mother was the most queenly woman
that ever walked. The ladies of tiie
household frequently came into the
rehearsal room with the children and
listened to the music. Victoria was
very fond of music. Mrs. Hender
son, a cousin of mine, who married
Oeorge Henderson, a page in the
royal family, was Victoria's teacher
on the piano. Victoria studied faith
fully, and was a lino performer on
tlie piano when a girl. She'was af
fable and extremely graceful.
"I continued as Yeilnist, in || 1( >
queen's band for some years, but the
reform bill, passed in tie- early Hit's,
I think, abolished the private house,
hold band of the family. 1 located
in Devonshire, but, was summoned
to Tiomlmi to (liny the 'cello at the
coronation or Victoria. Sir
Oeorge Smart, who conducted, was
knighted for Ids musical ability. The
most st riking scene at tlie coronation
was the entrance at Westminster
abbey of the duchess o'f St, Albans.
She had formerly been an actress,
had married Coutts, the bunker,
and after his death was wedded to
the duke of St. Albans. The press
and the people discussed at great
length whether she should be admit
ted to the coronation. She demand
ed her rights as a duchess, and con
sequently could not be- debarred.
She entered alone, and her jnugnili-
cent stage effect and self-possession
as she walked up an avenue of
armies In file was one of the grandest
sights of the day, Tim duke of St.
Albans wus grand falconer of Eng
bind, and the duchess was one or
the most ladylike pet-sons ever born.
"I was summoned to London again
ns u singer at, tlie marriage of Queen
Victoria to Prince Albert."
The professor came to America in
1849. He says be is eighty-seven
years old. Ills memory is stocked
with incidents of ids early life in
England and bis subsequent life in
this country, including bis military
service during the late war. He is
engaged In writing bis reminiscen
ces, and frequently writes short
poems. Prof. Crouch lias composed
a number of songs beside the world-
famous air of "Kathleen Mavour-
ncon."—Baltimore Sun.

THE OOLOMEL'3 TODDY.
THE EYE OF THE NEEDLE.
A Dream Solved a Hard Problem for
Elias Howe.
Elias Howe almost beggared him-
self before lie. discovered whore, the
eye of the needle of a sewing machine
should be located. His original idea
was to follow the model of the eye at
the heel. It never occurred to him
that it should be placed near the
point, and lie might have failed alto
gether if he had not dreamed lie wus
building a sewing machine for a
savage king in a strange country.
Just, as in Ids actual waking experi
ence he was rather perplexed about
the needle's eye. He thought the
king gave him twenty-four hours to
complete a machine and make It sow.
If not- finished in that time death was
tube the punishment? Howe worked
mid worked, and puzzled and puzzled,
and dually gave it up, Then ho
thought lie wus taken out, to be exe
cuted. He uotleod that the warriors
carried spears thub were pierced
near the head. Instantly came the
solution ol tlie difficulty, and while
the inventor was begging for time
lie awoke. It was four o’clock in tbo
morning. He jumped out of bed,
ran to Ids workshop, and by nine
o’clock u needle with an eye at the
point had boon rudely modeled.
After that it was easy. This is the
true story of an important incident
in the invention of the sowing ma
chine.—Philadelphia Tiroes.

A Northern Man Who Didn't Know
What It Was.
Tlie famous Indian champion, Mr.
Byudinot, introduced me tc> a plant
er, whose two cabins, side by side,
and joined by a single roof, formed
the most picturesque home that I
saw on that splendid river. I was
introduced as plain “Mister," but
that, wouldn't do down there.
“Col. Ralph," said the planter,
“enjoy this yer boundless panorama
of nature. Feast yo’ eyes, sail, on
tlie beautiful river." Then aside:
"Wife, set out the mixin’s In the
back room.” “Col. Ralph, you are
welcome to sliure with us this grand
feast of scenery and nature’s orna
ments, but, sah, 1 think my wife has
set out something—just a little some-
tiling—in the house. I dun’no what
it is, sah, but if you find it good I
shall be delighted, sah.”
So wo went into the back room
with this other Col. Mulberry Sel
lers, and there on the dining table
stood a bottle, a bowl of sugar, three
glasses and spoons, and a glass
pitcher full of spring water.
"Serve yourself to a toddy,
colonel," said my host.
"I’ll watch you first," said I. “I
don't, know wliat a toddy is.”
“Don't know what a toddy isY”
said the hospitable man. “Why,
sail, that does seem strange to me.
Hack in gruu'ole Virginia, sah, wo
children were all brought, up to it,
sail. Every morning my reverend
father and my sainted mother began
the day with a toddy, sah, and as wo
children appeared my mother pre
pared for each one an especially tem
pered drink of the same, sob, put
ting, I regret, to say, a little more
water in mine than the others, be
cause I was the youngest of tbo
children."
As he spoke he dipped some sugar
into Ids glass, poured in a little
water (sufficient tomakeaslrup when
the two ingredients were stirred with
a spoon) and then emptied in an
Arkansas ‘’stiffener" of whisky—a
jorum, ns the English would say.—
