Jpcitferit of the War of 1870 Recalled, When Bravery Amounting to Fool hardiness Was Exhibited to Litt'e Purpose. Great bravery Is rarer on a retreat than cn a charge, for obvious reasons; J the excitement and thrill of attack is men lacKmg, and the necessity or haste in order to get away is often real. This fact makes interesting an incident related concerning a soldier in the army of the Rhine in the war of lcT0. A battery of mitrailleuses had made a stand against the advancing Ger mans near Metz. It was on the ISth of August, in the brave fight made by the division of General Picard. The fire of the enemy was terrible, and seemed to be sweeping away the whole French division. In the midst of the final firing of the French, prior to their inevitable re treat, one of the mitrailleuses ceased to work on account of th sticking of a shell in the barrel. A lieutenant looked about for something with which to remove the shell, and a soldier of fered him his pocketknife. The lieu tenant had just removed the she 1 when the order came to fall back. In the ecu fusion the officer dropped the soldier's knife on the ground. When I 1 Ihev bad withdrawn n littlo dicf-m-if'P the soldier came up to the lieutenant and said, saluting: "Will you please let me have my knife Duke cf Wellington's Oreier Prevented World Knowing Abut' Result Avsi i:.t BAf'TISM CF FIRE Po- Mcci i errnyi.; cf Waterloo sitlon on Fidi cf Bsti'3 is When Still.

"It isn't the value of the knife at all," said the soldier. "I'm just fond cf it, that's all. I brought it from home. . If you will permit, I shall go back after it." "In the face of this fire and the ad vance of the enemy?" "Yes, sir." "Well, if 3ou care as much as that for a pocketknife it must bo pretty i dear to yoa. Go on!" j The soldier started back. Shot and j shell were flying; the enemy were j rear, somewhere in the gloom of tho be overwhelmed.

The paintings of Raphael, Titian, Paolo, Veronese, Rembrandt and Rubens were carefully packed and shipped to Brest. There they could, if necessary, be put on shipboard and taken from the country. It was not so easy to save the pieccc of marble statuary, for their weight and fragility made them difficult to handle; but the French determined j that the famous Venus of Milo, at j least, should not fail into the hands J cf the Prussians. So they took her down from her ped- I 1 1 1 1 -1 -I - I tsuu anu idiu iier m a catiiet careiuny padded and wrapped.

In front of the papers they built another wall. Here the Venus j of Milo remained, much to the distress j of those patriotic Parisians who did I not know where she was and suppoced j that she had been stolen, through tho '; siege of the city by the Germans "and ; through the disorders of the eommuno. One day the prefecture caught lire- ! and was pretty completely destroyed. j The distress of these who knew that I the Venus was concealed there can ; be imagined. As soon as the fire was extinguished they hastened to the sink- i ing ruins and after some digging found the casket, buried in heaps of dirt and stones, but uninjured.

"Just the same, though, I am going to cut out the en dearing names." "You have never gone and called him endearing names!" "That is just what I did do." "Oh, Flossie! That is such a mis take.

The day she arrived Saphir's paper contained the an nouncement : "An empty carriage drew up to the hotel entrance and cut stepped lime. Eernhafdt." The actress threatened all sorts cf dire things, but the worst was yet to come, for when she announced that she was learning to play the flute, Sarhir came back with: "lime. Bernhardt is learning to play the flute. In order to distinguish the instrument, she has decorated it with a blue bow." P.ut it was as an impromptu wit that Saphir shone. Once when ho I turned a street corner he bumped into a stranger. "Donkey!" thundered tho stranger.

This 21st day of January, 1915. Gir Edward Grey an Ann!:r. Sir Edward Grey, England's man of the hour, minister for foreign affairs, caused John Mcrley to say 20 years ago: "That young man will go far- he will be prime minister some day." He is fifty-two years of age. and, curiously enough, despite the position he holds, his only book is not a work of international diplomacy, but an au thoritative treatise on fly fishing. Sir Edward was educated at Oxford and at twenty succeeded his grandfather in the baronetcy. As a very young man he was as fond of tennis as of angling, and won the amateur cham pionship of England. At twenty-three ho was elected to the house of commons. Legend cf the Lincoln !:np. Have j'cu ever heard the story of the "Lincoln Imp?" Listen, and I will tell you about that wicked little sTjrlte. In the eastern part of England there is a quaint old town named Lincoln, or Linclum, as it was called in olden cays. This town, which is hundreds of years old, is built on a hillside, and what do ycu think is cn top of that hill? A beautiful cathe dral! One day, a long time ago, the devil let loose somo cf the little de mons to piny. One of them thought it would bo great fun to get into the cathedral and make mischief. So he slipped away from the others and en tering the church he ran down the aisles, and after tearing up the prayer books he broko the two great candle sticks which were on the altar, and did ever so many other wicked and naughty things. Suddenly he heard the sound cf music! It was the organ playing and the choir singing for ves pers. The music enchanted the little devil and he remained quiet for so long a time that he finally was turned to stone, and there he has stayed ever since. Ycu may see him to this day, perched high on the columns cf the choir. This is the legend cf the Lincoln Imp." The Churchman. r'o Li'rrsry Cc-pie.? Y. incut Them.
