TRICKED HIS PREMIER. ~
Pitt Was Quiok to Act, but tha King
Got Ahead of Him.
On Jan. 10, 1806, Dr. Mannera-Snt
ton, bishop of Norwich, was firing a
dinner party In bis Windsor deanery
when bis butler Informed him that a
gentleman wished particularly to see
him, bnt would not give his name.
"Well, 1 can't come now In the mid
dle of dinner,” said the bishop.
"Beg pardon, my lord, but the gen
tleman is very anxious to see you on
Important business,” and the butler
was so urgent that the bishop apolo
gized to bis company and went out
The gentleman who would not be de
nied proved to be King George 1IL
“How d’ye do, my lord?’ said he
“Come to tell you that jrou’re arch
bishop of Canterbury—archbishop of
Canterbury. D’ye accept—accept! Eh,
eh?’
The bishop bowed low In token of
acceptance.
“All right” said his majesty.
"You’ve got a party—see all their hats
here. Go back to them. Good night”
Next morning Pitt appeared at Wind
sor castle to Inform his majesty that
Archbishop Moore had died the day be
fore and to recommend the bishop of
Lincoln, Dr. Pretyman, for the vacant
primacy.
“Very sorry, very sorry, Indeed,
Pitt” said the king, “but I offered It
to the bishop of Norwich last night and
be accepted. Can’t break my word.”
Pitt was very angry, but the deed
was done, as tbe king meant It should
be, and so Dr. Manners-Sutton became
archbishop of Canterbury and held the
great office for twenty-three eventful
years.—Chambers' Journal.
OUR NATIONAL GAME.
Baseball as Now Played Is Essentially
American In Origin.
Some authorities trace baseball to
an old English ball game called “round
ers," which dated from the eighteenth
century. “Rounders" was played In an
open field marked out by a five sided
figure, the points being called bases,
first to fourth and borne bases. The
“feeder" (modern pitcher) stood In the
middle of the pentagon; the bats
man ran the bases and scored a run If
be made the circuit without being put
out, but be was retired If a bit ball was
caught on the fly or on the first bounce
or when be was struck out by having
the bail thrown at him while running
the bases.
“Rounders” was played In this coun
try before the Revolutionary war and
baseball possibly was an outgrowth of
it, but If so it was a long time coming.
The game as now played is essentially
of American origin, through the differ- '
ent stages of two old cat, three old
cat, four old cat, town ball and bull
pen.
The Washington Baseball club, the
first known, was formed In New York
In 1843, and the first regular code of
rules was drawn up In 1845 by the
Knickerbocker Baseball club of New
York. The first national association
was organized In 1853, and the first
convention of baseball financiers and
managers was held In Philadelphia In
1887, about 500 organizations being
represented.—Philadelphia Press.
An Indulgent Father.
The Duke de Richelieu one day-vis
ited his son. who was a student In the
University of Paris “Do you need any
money?" be asked In the course of the
conversation.
"No.” said his son. “I still have 20
tools from last month’s allowance."
On bearing this the duke took the
boy’s purse and, banding It to his serv
ant, said: “There, John, are 20 louts.
My son. the Count de Fronsac. presents
them to you. Go and drink his health.”
But to bis son be said: “Young man.
remember that you are the son of the
Duke de Richelieu. Be more generous
with your money.”
How many youths In college today
would Uke to have so thoughtful a
father! _
Living on a 8alary.
living on a salary Is a more or’lase
precarious form of existence, but It Is
not always wise for every man to g»
Into business for himself. Some men
are not fitted for that responsibility,
and there are a great many fallnres of
men who strike out for themselves
without sufficient backing of capital or
experience. However, if you never
save any money out of your salary you
will never get ahead financially. Yon
always will be the tall of another
man’s kite, always stoking to keep up
■team In the boilers of somebody else's
business.—Rochester Sentinel.
Two Old Customs.
One of- the oldest customs In the

an equally aged custom Is promising
to hand over the precious metal or oth
er commodity next week.—Louisville
