This was no hard task, for the romantic memory of iafayette had in no wiso died away among our representative cit izens This was the time wheiT duties on foreign goods were heavily imposed to raise revenue to support the govern ment. The wary French king hoped to ha 'e the duty made light upon his French silks and wines. It was probably more than a coinci dence that at this crisis the Prince do Joinville, the son of the king, made a visit to tills country, and naturally ho went to Washington. The president, ao cuatomed then, as since, courteously to receive distinguished guests, invited the French prince lo dinner For some Insufficient reason the Invi tation was respectfully declined. Very soon tiin prince returned to France. In the meanwhile tlio French government, ini or tried of De Join ville’s refusal to dine at the White House, made a great stir, litre wus an a (front to a rising power which might well lie construed into un international insult. The French sprig of royalty was ordered immediately hack to accept an invitation and dine witli the president of the United States. . In the meanwhile Oeu. Harrison had died in office and Mr. Tyler was the president. The French ambassador met • ids prince in Now York and escorted him to the capital. The invitation came, and was effusively accepted. The inexorable laws jf courtesy were thus appeased, and the gallant Frenchman, with the fail Miss Tyier on his arm, was ushered into the slate dining room. Immediately afterward lie returned to Ids frigate, which had been expressly detailed to Viring him over to take a meal. —Youth’s Companion CuHMowurv Fifthinir. The habits of the cormorant and of our native fish hawk are generally known. Their methods of taking fish are very much liko those of birds of prey. But the cassowary fishes accord ing to a method of its own. Mr. Powell witnessed Its operations on a river in the island of New Britain: i saw a cassowary come down to the “ water's edge, and stand for some minutes apparently watching t he water carefully. It then stepped into the river where it was about three feet deep, and, partially squatting down, spread its wings out, submerging them, tho feathers being spread and ruffled. Tho bird remained perfectly motion loss, and kept its eyes closed, as if in sleep. It remained in this position for fully a quarter of an hour, when, sud denly closing its wings and straightening it feathers, it stepped out on tho bank. Mere it shook itself several times, whero upon a quantity of small fishes foil out of its wings, and from amidst its feath ers, which tho bird immediately picked up :uui swallowed. Tim fishes laid evidently mistaken tho feathers for a kind of weed that grows in tile w ater along tho bonks of the rivers in this island, and which very much re sembles the feathers of tho cassowary. Tho smaller fishes hide in these w eeds to uvoid tho larger ones that prey on them. —Youth's Companion. Kel Skins for Uhpumntlsm. “Give me two large eel skins,” gsid a young woman who entered a North End drug store at tho timo a Globo man hap pened to lie quencluug his thirst at tlio soda fountain. “Eel skius!” said Tho Globe man to the clerk, when the young lady hud left with her purchase. “What does she want of eel skins:” “Rheumatism,” said (lie drug clerk. “You’d be surprised at tho number of people who uso eel skius for rheuma tism. I know an old man whose arms aid legs are completely strapped with them, and ho believe* that they prolong his life. We have more or less call for them, but I understand that up town stores don’t keep them, although otico in a while their customers ask for them. Ve get our skius of a fish dealer on At lantic avenue. He purchases them from South Boston people, who sell the skinned eels for food, and when tho skins are dried, sell them to various customers. In many of the fish stores on Atlantic avenue you will see a bunch of the skins suspended from the wall by a book. They are very oily and soft, and while I don’t take much stock in them, num bers of people have implicit faith in them. lam told that there is a German family in South Boston that sells those eel skins to various people throughout toe United States and realir.es a snug littlo Income therefrom."—Boston Globe. COLLEGE BOAT RACING. Tho annual inter-collegiate boat races are by no mean# the least interesting eventa of the commencement season. To be a victor In that great struggle of strength and endur ance, to be one of the triumphant crew, is considered more glory and a greater honor than to be valedictorian and spout one’s wis dom before a crowd of friends and alumni. This year the Yale and Harvard crows will meet on June 28 at New London on the Thames, Both crews have been in strict training for somo time past. Is training pleasure! Well! try it yourselves and And out that it is only by indefatigable energy and vigi lance that allows no detail to pass unnoticed, however slight, and by steady grinding and perseverance that they are able to make a creditable showing. But they ore willing to sacrifice a|Lpeno&Al pleasure for the sake of one short fifteen or twenty minutes rowing provided the prestige of their alma mater shall be sustained. How proud that young giant must feel after a hard earned victory to have some fairy like figure run to him flushed with excitement and Joy, throw her arms around his neck, and cry; “I knew you would win, you old dear." “Yale always wins,” or “Harvard always wins,” os the case may be. Tho girls ore stanch, loyal supporters of their college colors, be it crimson or blue. THE DAY OF THE RACE. On the day of tho race crowds and crowds of mothers, brothers, friends, sympathiser!, alumni and students fl<x:k to the sc sue of ac tion. Special trains are run, packed almost beyond endurance. But every one is happy In anticipation. Ah, but there will be many a disappointed one by night! Many a youth of sporting proclivities will look in vain for the huge wad of bills be wagered so con fidently—and, last of all, think of that di* appointed college whose colors * have been lowered to their bitterest foe, At the scene of action everything is gay and attractive. Trains of cars a mile long line the river. These are nothing more than open freight oars with temporary scats and gayly decorated with flowers and flags. Money is plenty every where, and so are tho cries; “Even money on Harvard I” “Bet you 6 to 5 on Yale!” “Put up your stuff 1” People turn to soo who It is that stands ready to back his crew so eagerly. Hero and there one a group of animated students, full of expectancy, frantically waving their money in tho nir, hoping to catch the eye of some youthful sjiort. “Hollo, Charley, what odds are you givingf* Two friends of different colleges have met “Give you 8 to 2, but you’re throwing away your money if you take me up.” “That’s all right, old man \ wo’re going to show you a few things about rowing. 11l take *6O to $40.” “Ta, tal” College boys are always confident, “HERE THEY COMEI” Ah I hero come tlio crews, fine muscular giants, every one a perfect specimen of phy- I steal manhood. Hoe how proudly they walk to their bouts, tVtmt beautiful shells they i row ini What can be more exquisite, with their delicate curvos, their sharp prows, per fect finish, and light airy beauty f They are o narrow that the oarsmen are obliged to part their hair in the middle to avoid cap siring and to keep the shell perfectly trim; so it is said. “I wonder if it is true!” says a young and pretty miss to her escort. “Of course," says he, with mock gravity. Then they laugh at the same old mom grown joke that is sure to be heard at every boat race. The cheering commences. On aU sides ore heard the “’Rahl ’Rah I 'Rah! Yale I" “’Rahl 'Rahl 'Rah! Harva-r-d!” Some times Princeton's sky rocket yeli is heard, “’Rah! 'Rah! 'Rah! tiger—siss— boom—ah I” They are not entered in the race, bnt they are standing for one of tho colleges. Colum bia, with her “Rahl’ 'Rahl ’Rah! 00-l-u-m --b-i-a!” is there. Every man tries to outshout his neighbor. The gentler sex wave their handkerchiefs and flags, the noise is deafening, the confusion indescribable. The men are In tho boats. Now they are ready. “Ready all I Give way I" “TtntY arb orr!" They are off! Wasn’t that a flue startt j “ ’Rahl 'Rah, siss-boom. ’Rah! tiger—Yale— ’Rah! Ah! Harvard." So thoy keep it up, | shout after shout. The prows of the shells : cut through the waters with a swish, the ] oarsmen bend to their oars mid pull w ith a strong, steady stroke. How evenly matched they are! “Rah! Rah!" Some undergradu ate who Ims been yielding to the itersuiislve force of mallow old King Corn hikes it upon himself to outhoot tho multitude. He keeps up his incessant “’Rah I ’Hah I" A number of min- j utos have passed; tho boats have turned the { stake; they are on the homestretch. Tugj boats and little steamers follow in their wake, so as not to disturb their course. “Yala leads!" “Harvard loads!" bursts from a thousand throats. The cry oom dowu the banks of the river and Is caught, up and re shouted by thousands of excited men. Yea, one boat leads. Tho roar crew Is rowing a strong, steady stroke, and is slowly overhauling the leaders. Can she catch her before they have finished j those hist 100 yardsi On they come liko the wind. Whistle* screech. Tho shouting is terrific. Hats go up In the air. Flags are waved frantically. Every one is seemingly crasy with excite ment, “How slowly that rear boat moves!” “Will it uever oateh the leader 1" “How that leading crew- is fagged out!" Tlieso exclamations are heard on all sides But tho men are straining every muscle, the gap la closing up. IIKFKATI VICTORY! What's that commotion! What means that cry of dismay from the crowd! Blasted hopes, empty pockets, tears and curses—yes, curses sometimes—of disappointed ones. No. 8 of the leading boat has broken an oar, over he goes, the oars are mixed, the progress of tho boat is retarded, and w-here victory seemed so certain defeat is inevitable The rear bout shoots across the line a win ner by a scant half leugth, but a winner nevertheless. Bedlam is let loose. There is a rush for the winning crew. Strong arms raise the men iu the air and carry them to their quarters. “You did nobly." Rah for us!" What a time there will to in town to night! A victorious student is a queer crea ture; money is no obftt't; it has been won easily, and it will fly away just as nicely. Champagne will flow. The horizon will turu a rich crimson color, and—drop the curtain over the weakness and excesses of the boys. In the morning many a tired voice will ex claim, “Oh, my poor head! But it was a grand victory. I wouldn’t have missed it for ten such heads," Ob, no! Where Ringmaster Came From. Ringmaster, the winuer of the Great Northern handicap, at York, England, re cently, was an Importation from Australis,, and left that country for England quietly. THE DAILY TIMES: FRIDAY.

Ho liad conceived an idea for a great classical picture, and he hired a stalwart gentleman of toil to pose for the muscu lar figure required for the center of the picture. ITo painted for days nnd days, and he thought whenever lie had his model before iiim that lie had never seen such rich flesh, tints before. And he studied those flesh tints and worked till ho had got them perfect Then ho called his brother artists in and showed them vic picture “Those flesh tints don't seem quite right. Where did you get them?” "They rich, aren't they? But they're from nature. They’re from my model.” “Well, they don’t look quite natural.” The last touches had to be given and the model had come to pose for the last time. When he stripped his torso and took his position the painter stared aghast. The brllliaut flesh tints had vanished and ho was a plain, ordinary flesh colored individual. “How's this? What's tho matter with you?” “What?" •‘You've changed your skin. It Used to bo redder than that." “Oh, that was from the red undershirt I used to wear, and I had a hath this morning.”—Sau Francisco Chronicle. Tracking Frugality. The wealth of Holland and the great commercial prosperity of that country about HOO years ago were built up by a parsimonious frugality, which for e. long time marked the character of the Dutch. This habit gave place to luxury when wealth had been secured. The clergy tim'd to rebuke the growing extrava gance, and a French writer tells how a successful business man taught his fel lows a lesson: Before retiring from business and tak ing leave of his friends in the city he in vited them to dine with him. The guests, on arriving at his residence, were surprised to see the extraordinary pre parations that had been made for their reception. On a plain oak table, covered with a blue cloth, were some wooden plates, spoons and drinking vessels. Presently two old seamen brought In dishes containing herrings—some fresh, others salted or dried. Of these the guests were invited to partake: but it was clear that they had little appetite for such poor fare, and, with considerable impatience, they awaited the secoud course, which con sisted of salt beef and gr ms. This, also, when brought in, they uid not seem to relish. At last the blue cloth was removed, and one of line white damask substitut ed; and the guests were agreeably sur prised to see a number of servants, in gorgeous liveries, euter with the third course, which consisted of everything accessary to form a most sumptuous banquet. The master of tho house then addressed his friends in the following terms: gentlemen, has been the pro gress of our republic. We began with short frugality, by means of which we became wealthy: and we end with lux ury, which will beget poverty. We should, therefore, be satisfied with our beef and greens, that we may uot have to return to cur herrings.” Youth's Comuanion. PPH c Absolutely Pure. Thin p iwder never varies.

Jum *2-tf A Famous Betrothal Over Forty Year* Ago. “I wonder how many people know that Victoria tho Good, as it has itcen I suggested the queen of England shall to ; called, when she fell in love had to do | tho proposing for herself?” said an Atuer i iconized Englishman tlm other looming. | “I was much interested in reading rt | cent' tho account of her betrothal. It j had a.ways been oX]>ectod that shty and ! tier cousin Albert would eventually make a match of it. When they were both about 19 years old ho visited England, ! but did not make much impression on tho newly crowned queen. However, | tliree years later ho made up his mind to Ia ‘now or never’ game, and with Ids | brother visited hei at Windsor castle. ; Liko more humble lovers, he was placed in a rat her embarrassing predicament by tho non-arrival of Ida luggage, and was j thus prevented from dining with her j majesty ou his first evening ns her guest For five days did Victoria study him, and then after first telling her adviser, Lord Melbourne, what she had decided to do, she sent for Albert, saying that she desired to seo him particularly. One ac count of the Affair, certainly valuable for its brevity, reads as follows: ‘What tho queen told him was that she loved him with her whole heart, and that she de sired to bo Ids wife.’ She was accepted without hesitation, as any good looking sovereign of 20 might have hoped to have been, and so they were married.”—Phila delphia Press. Th* Weight of Individual*. The average weight of a boy at birth ia seven und that of a girl a little more than six pounds. When they have at tained the full development of wan or womanhood they should weigh twenty times as much as they did at birth. Tins would make a man's average weight 140 and a w oman's about 130. Tins height of a male at birth is 1 foot 8 inches and that of a female 1 foot C inches. Fully grown, a man's height should be about three and a half times greater than at birth, or 5 feet 9 inches, while a woman should be 5 feet 8 inches. The weight of Individuals who are fully developed and well formed, however, varies within ex tremes, which are nearly as 1 to 3, while their height varies within limits which at most are as 1 to 1-8. Taking 200 pounds as the' maximum of man's weight and 83 as the minimum we would have the average of 142$ pounds. Placing the maximum weight of woman at 185 pounds and the miuimum at 70 pounds, and we get an average of 1274 pounds.— Philadelphia Record. ilia Mind Was Gone.
