CAPTAIN JOHN SMITH.
A Da ring Ycung Adventurer With ? |
Thrilling Career.
Captain John Smith of Willoughfoy, .
Lincolnshire. was the man to whom
the juco.-- of ih.' tir-t English perma
nent settlement iu North America was
direct ly dm- Though only twenty-six
; when the expedition <ailod with him
on board, lie had already enjoyed such
a succession of thrilling experiences as
was the lot of few men even In the ad
venturous age of I'liziiMh. At the age
of slxt. i :i lie had entered 011 a military j
career in France aud the I.owCountries.
In 180O he sought service against the
! Turks, who were .heH at the height of
their power and had only lately censed j
: to threaten Vienna Itself. On the way !
i to the easi he was thrown overboard j
j as a Huguenot and was rescued by a
pirate, from whom his Inexhaustible
I resourcefulness enabled him to escape i
1 after a time. He then entered the Aus- ]
rrtan service and soon signalized him- '
? self by 11 series of brilliaut exploits. '
One of these, the defeat of three Turk
ish champions in single tight, earned :
him his well known coat of arms,
"three Turks' heads in a shield." from
Slgisuioml Buthiri. prince of Trausyl- ?
vaula. Later he was taken prisoner by j
the Turks and owed his escape to tbo
Interest with which he Inspired a Turk
ish lady. "Whatever might happen,"
as Gardiner say-:, "he was always able
to turn it to account. In the worst dan- I
gers he knew what was the right thing
to be done."? Londou Outlook.
: PRECOCIOUS JOHN DAVY.
Childhood Incident of the Author of '
"Th# Bay of Biscay."
An interesting anecdote of the youth |
of John Davy, who composed the fa- I
mous song "The Bay of Biscay," shows
Ihow decided and precocious wus this
musician's aptitude for the art he ultl- .
mately practiced with artistic If not j
I financial success. Johu Davy was born
I near Exeter in 170o. At the age of six 1
i be evinced a passion for music, which
he sought every means of gratifying.
He was In rt-aut of a musical Instru
ment and determined to provide him
self with one of however rough a na
ture. So from a neighboring smithy
he purloined twenty to thirty horse
shoes. From these he selected as many
ss formed 11 complete octave and. hav
ing suspended them in an upper room,
amused himself by Imitating upon
tliem the chimes of th? neighboring
church of Crediton.
By these and other means he obtain
ed a knowledge of music which some
thirty years later enabled him to pro
duce many dramatic pieces and such
songs as "Just I.Ike I.ove." "The Death
of the Smuggler" aud "The Bay of
Biscay," only the last of which has re
mained iwpular.
After twenty years' work in London
Davy d icil in St. Martin's lane 111 1S24.
He was buried in St. Martin's church
yard.- London Chronicle.

time by Colonel I tester Kay, to make
his purchases. The amount was GS

u one dollar bill, change being scarce
In the store, as was ofteu the ease dur

passed him some slips of paper with
figures on them to ei|u:.l the amount of
change due. <; I looked at the slip,
then at the clerk, and slowly said.
"What's all this':" "Why, that Is what
we are giving for change now. When
you get one dollar's worth, we will re
deem them." replied the clerk, aud
Gil went out. A day or two after
this occurrence Gil went to the
store again for some tobacco. The
clerk passed out the plug, and Gil
put Ms hand Iti his pocket, pulled out
