_ YOUNG RECTOR ADMIRED
VESTMENTS OF BISHOP.
A story which has been going the IU

chester, N. Y., according to a dis- v
h in the New York Tribune, has o
au·ed a great deal of amusement at p
tlp. expense of a widely known and t
well liked young clergyman, whose po
Oition as rector of one of the richest r

The tale is told as follows: A well

a short business trip to a suburban I

S.There is a movement on toot for

tages. The movement of the society
seeking millionaires to Washington -s
quite as interesting a sign of the times
as is the jadgira of men of wealth to
N4w York. Indeed, when a millionaire
has sold his stocks, bought bonds with
the honey and has no duty more fa
tiguing than that of scissoring cou
pons, he naturally goes to Washington
as the next phase in his social met
empsychosis. The reason is plain,
Washington has a society in which
breeding and brains play a part, and
a society of that kind is distinctly su
perior to one like that of New York,
where money is the criterion of social
position.
It has somehow come to be a fash
ion for millionaires to have homes in
New York. A palace built there is
conspicuous and gets its owner talked
about. It is a convenient eyrie from
which to descend upon Wall street.
Furthermore, it is to be supposed that
'millionaires find one another's society
especially congenial, since it must be
conducive to ennui for any of them
to be surrounded only by men who
think and talk of little sums instead
or big, round, modth-flling millions.
So the millionaires flock together in
Fifth avenue and keep one another in
countenance to the best of their abil

tened through the darkened church to
the apartment indicated. The door
was closed, and, without giving its
occupant time to answer his knock in
person, he opened the door and en
tered.
His astonishment and entertain
ment may be imagined when one
reads that he discovered the young
rector arrayed in the complete vest
ments of the absent bishop, stepping
sideways and back before the long
pier glass, with the aid of which the
clergymen were accustomed to as
sume their robes. The vestments
were somewhat too long, the visitof'
said, but they became the young wear
er admirably. What conversation
passed between the two, or whether
the bishop noticed any change in thd
manner in which he had done up the
vestments, has never been divulged',
but the story, as it appears above, has
been told as too good to consign to
oblivion.
If there were no fault-finders we

DINING AT SARATOGA LAKE
Mosquitoes See to it That the Guests
Are Kept Busy.
I went to a modest farmhouse of
a place where I had ordered lake flshb
and frogs' legs, says Julian Ralph in
the New York Times. I saw within a
quiet family party headed by John A.
McCall: and in the next room a mer
ry group around John W. Gates. I
knew, therefore, that if I had made
a mistake I was in some company that
was excellent as well as some that
was accomplished. My place was
without upon the porch, and my
neighbor was a young lady with a
cocktill.
I noticed a strange agitation of the
lady'd, knees. They were working up
and down like pistons of an upright
engine. I studied the case, and dis

with his old ballats, skull and cross
bones and similar "gabions" (as he
called them) in his little study in
George's Square. But, on reflectign, I
think that the date of the legal deal
ings of the traitor Murray with Mr.
Scott (I have seen the actual papers)
was earlier in date than the move to
George's Square. The pavement of
College Wynd, not of the square, must
have rung to the fall of the historical
teacup.
Scott dwelt longer in no one place
.than in George's Square,. a place little
1 altered, and worthy of a visit from
the pilgrim.
Scott was about three years old
I when he went to his kinsfolk at Sandy
Knowe. The view from the tower
, takes in Melrose, which he made im
I mortally famous, and Hume Castle, so
I renowned in Border wars. Here the
1- child learned to read, studied Hardik
i. nute, made friends with sheep and
Il shepherds, and took that romantic ply
which made him the Border minstrel
- and historian.
n After his marriage Scott rented a
Ia house in South Castle Street. Its in
d terior does not repay a pilgrimage, nor
n is much to be said about the house
t. in North Castle struet, where he lived,
it when in Edinburgh, till 1826. In the
,y summer, after his wedding, Scott at
ie first rented a cottage at Lasswade, on
m the Esk, six miles from Edinburgh. At
to Lasswade Scott edited "The Border
d Minstrelsy," and composed his, own
A. early ballads.
jn In 1804 Scott rented Ashestiel on
in Tweed.
il. Ashestiel, between Elibank and
MELROSE ABBEY.
Yair, is some four miles from Selkirk.
The house, part of which is an old peel
tower, stands on a very steep wooded
bank, above Tweed, and through the
grounds runs a brawling little burn,
immortalized in "Marmion." At As
hestiel were passed the poet's hap
piest years. Here he had "grand gal
lops upon the hills when he was think
ing of Marmion."
From the Duke to the hind he knew
and was beloved by everybody.
Ashestiel, with its woods heather
clad hills and Tweed, then full of
trout for which Sir Walter used to
angle, and with the hearty society of
the Forest, was an ideal home for
Scott. And all the while, in his study,
looking out to the south and the wall
of woods, was a huge old invalid's
chair. When at Abbotsford, Scott was
stricken by paralysis, this chair was
lent to him, and now it is again at
Ashestiel Just twenty years were to
elapse between the flitting from
Ashestitbl to Abbotsford, and the flit
ting of the arm-chair to that new villa,
the scene of so many joys and hopes
and honors, the cause of so heavy a
ruin. "How Fortune jests with us,"
wrote Bolingbroke, when Queen
Anne's death broke the web of in
trigue and dashed down the airy
castles of ambition. Thus Fate "sat
there and smiled" in that ancient arm

The Passing of Wee William.
A number of years ago. when "the
vogue for verses in obituary notices
was at its height here in Philadelphia,
a brief "poem" was turned over the
counter in one of the local newspapers
that staggered even the callous clerk,
who refused to insert it unless it ware
approved by the editor-in-chief. That
functionary refused, but preserved a
copy of the verse, which was:
"Our dear little Willie
As fair as a lily
The Lord for him sent
And we let him went."

In Defense of Claret.
We learn that his majesty the king
al received the offer from various wine
nce merchants and growers of the Bor
the deaux district of a thousand bottles of S
claret, or more if so desired. The
iful bottles.were not to bear the names of
and firms or owners of vineyards, and the
bs. gift was simply intended to com
memorate the coronation. It is stated
that Lord Pembroke, in his reply, re
gretted that claret was not used in the t
hospitals of the country, but all the
same he thanked the wine growers
who had made this generous offer. It
may be true that claret is not used in
British hospitals, but is there any rea
ison why it should not be-any reason
so cogent as to cause this excellent
gift horse to be looked suspiciously in
the face? Claret, by which we mean
and sound Bordeaux, such as this wine
Wtt would have been, is an excellent and
rife, wholesome drink, and we-think that it
is a thousand pities, from- every point
of view, that the generous and kindly
