A TRIBIJrai FROM BOSTON. An Old Huron Boy's Testimony to Our Late Queen. Mr. James Johnston. of West Wa- wenosh, sends THE STAR a letter he received from a former Huron boy, now In Boston, whose parents are well known in this county. As Mr. John• ston well observes, "this eloquent tribute to the unanimously rick now• ledged merit of our late lamented sovereign but truly voices the senti- ments of Britieh subjects in all parte of the world." In his letter the w•ricer says : jUv dear friend. Mr. Johnston. - 1 write you a few lines. to inform you that, although the British flag is not the one floating over our city, yet the Stara and Stripes are at half utast, and 1 sympathize with you in our C0111111011 sofrow. The long lines of wires have carried the message throughout the habitable earth, "The Queen is dead," and the world mourns. There is sorrow in every land ; prince and peasant, royalist rind repuleres t, and races differing in complexion and in creed are linked together by a cons gr ref. At the heart of humanity theta is a greet eon. that seeks to ex• press itself in lender tributes to her memory. Around her coffin in stately march, moves t he Queen's grenadiers ; around the sot Id sweeps the Queen's fleet, and through the Queen's streets the Queen's soldiers shall bear her remains to their last resting place. Her reign has been one of righteousness. per'sun- sivenesss and rectitude. Her moon trent is the British Empire. whose boundaries are world-wide, and whose people rejoice in the possession of free dow, intelligence and the old Saxon spirit of conquering energy. and future generations will, more than the present. regard the Empire as her memorial. Her reign wire like the dawn of a beautiful morn, and has become as n beautiful morn after the reign. Victoria was n Christian woman with the weight of E npires upon her shoulders. She received her tuiH stun from God, and from her throne pro- ceeded i r nsne s and coed .d a rule of r hteo e ti hmnnge to God. • When Lord Russel's ultimatum in the Mtteru and Slidell affair. which would, If allowed In go into effect.. have caused hostility between Great Britain and the United States, the Queen raised her hand and refused to sign and bade hint pause, and begged the noble Lord to wait, and with her clear vissiun she saw that the English speaking peoples have everything to gain ny peace among themselves. The Queen is dead—"Long live the King." May he be true to the nsnte Edward, descending from Edward. the name of the eon of Alfred: 1 cru glad that, i was born under the British flag, with such a noble monarch t,o uphold it, and to yon, as one of the active supporters of the Queen's policy, i Lender tnv tribute in her behalf.

A WILL CASE,—The case of Hayter vs. Peck, which was t.rieci in Toronto recently, arose out of the adulinistre• tion of the estate of the late Henry Johnson, of Stanley. The plaintiff - were Joseph Hayter and Jane John 8071, the grandchild' en and legatees, and the defendant John Peck, the surviving executor of the will. In 1883 Mr, Peck had passed his accounts Before Judge Torus, who had road. the usual order allowing Mr. Peck Ihr te,tll commission for future, in addi- tion to past., work ata cer (tin perceut- nke.

I, a correct Engildhman, In a small Parts salon au premier,wee hold- ing a skein ot wool, which a halldeome American giri, who didn't seem to con- sider an introduction necessary„ was deftly winding, chatting all the time with a frankness that didn't give me a chance to say a word. "You do that rather well for a man' she went on; "goodness knows how I should have fixed it alone. You don't look much like an angel dropped in, but that's not your fault A little slow. Oh, my friend, 1f you please. There!" She tucked the ball snugly into a little traveling case, put her hands up- on her waist 'and straightened her back; then looked me in the face in the friendliest manner. 1 felt it me duty to speak. Now, Mies Holiday, If you can be ceremonloue for just a minute, I'll in- troduce myself. Braithwaite was um able to come to -day, so he asked me to make his adieux, to give you thla packet, and to say you were to be very kind to the messenger, who was his friend." "Candy! Th lovely man!" said Miss Holiday. "Ye I've heard a great deal about you, d when we've finished packing, tog, 111 good and motherly to you. Now, Mr. Haskell from London, you'll be kind enough to help me wltb this trunk." Miss Nora Holiday was a magnifi- cent girl. "Alors, mon ami, you shall put those cotton gloves for which I gave 2 franca next the little packet you're not to look at Now that traveling pillow and those slippers. These books—and there! I guess the lid won't close now. Do you mind?" I knelt upon the lid, which, after seg• eral attempts, we succeeded in catch- ing, and Mise Holiday arose, with • handsome flush on her face. "There," she said, "ft's just too bad of me to make you work like that, but you've been very good, and you shall have some tea and some of Mr. Braltlr walte's candy." By this time I was in no burry to leave. This young lady from Salt Lake, with her frank, free manners, her intuitive breeding, was like a pine laden breeze, of which one involuntar Ily breathes deep, and American slang, after all, was no worse than I had been accustomed to hear from erre' proachable Englfeh ladies. We sat down on either side of the table to a most successful and discus- sive tea. I took my cue from her con- versation, and found I might be as um embarrassed as she was. She spoke of Cairo. t didn't ktfow Cairo. Oh, but 1 ought to. That, I said, probably exclaimed my ignor- ance. Oh, but I must, she replied. I subjected myself to Kismet; did oho Intend to remainlong? in Cairo "All the winter, I guess, If the men will let me.They're a terriblelot0 t y men, They think every American girl has heaps of money. They lust worry you to death." I clothed myself In ignorance, and asked In what way? "Oh, they make no secret of It" she replied, laughing. "They have embar- rassed estates, or 'scutchoons that need regilding. They want money. They offer you a mine of affection— but they get no affection of mine." "Then you anticipate being asked shortly to share five centuries of title and a decayed ,castle somewhere in poland?" "Oh, no," Miss Holiday replied. "I always tell them I'm a Mormon, and entail a score of mothers -In-law. Of course, it isn't true; but they know I'm from Salt Lake, and that putt them off." "And will the bearer of a score of gnarterings be afraid of quartering e score of mothers-in-law?" I asked. "There is no question with mothers - In -law," M1sa Holiday retorted, paus, Ing as she opened Braithwaite's box of candy, and making a little moue that passed like a ripple round her mouth and was lost In the smile that fol lowed. "But the funniest thing," she eon. tlnued, "was an old Dutch connt,whose estates had been flooded. He wanted to pump them out, or something. Well, he asked Cottle McClellan and Edna Stacey, and they said they weren't rich enough. Then he came to me, and I had to tell him I'd just started a scheme for transplanting oysters ta- to Salt Lake, and that till the pearl harvest came, I was hard up. That broke hem right up, and he told them all at Shepherd's I was mad. Well, after that i swore I'd never let a man propose to me at Cairo again." "But if one day Cupid came to Cairo?" I asked. "Then 1f I were at Cairo, i should be e -opt at home," she replied. Now, if Wee Nora Holiday thought she cored match Elle so easily as that she was mistaken- 1 had been a bach, elor long enough to know my own mind when the time 'came; and that the time had come I knew as well as 1t it had been proclaimed to me by gpecial revelation. li whim came into my head.

Nobody has ever satisfactorily account- ed for the popular partiality for odd num- bers. "This la the third time!" exclaims Falstaff, on the occaaloo of a meats in his relatloue with one of the merry wives of 1Yindeor, t I 'kops good luck Iles In odd numbere; they say there's a divinity in odd numbers, either in satlrity, chance or depth." And It Is scarcely necessary to say that the belief Is much older than Sir. John Falstaff. Three, seven and utile appear to bave been the favorite cumbers all the world over. The ancient, bad three fates, three furtea end three graces; Neptune'. trident had three prongs, Jupiter's thunderbolt three Corks, and Cerberus three 'heads. We hare three estates of ,the realm. a man who accepts q bill has three days' grace, and three persons congregated together may make a riot. Shakespeare was well swam that be must hive neither more nor less than three wttchea In "Macbeth" and that the brindled eat must mew thrice, and our popular folklore Insists upon three tnerry ¢m, three blind mice and three wise men of Cotham. Three meals • day is the usual scale of feeding, Of ■ more mystical character than three Is the figure seven, or, at any rate, It has a larger number of religious apple• cations. Noah had seven days' warning of the coming of tbe, flood, pud when It came be took fowls by sevens and clean besets by sevens Into the ark; 'the ark touched on Mount Ararat in the seventh month, and after seven days a dove was sent out, followed seven days afterward by another. In Pharaoh's dream there were seven tat and seven lean kine, which Joseph Interpreted to glean seven years of plenty and seven years of fam- ine. At the destructlpn of Jericho sev- en priests bore seven trumpets seven days, and on the seventh day they walked round the city seven times, atter which the walla tell. In the apocalypse almost everything is seven, except the number of the beasts. There are seven churches, seg en golden candlesticks, seven lamps be- fore seven spirits, the book with seven seals, the Iamb with seven horns and sev- en eyes, seven angels with seven seals, seven kings, seven thunders, seven thou- sand elaln, the dragon with seven heads and seven crowns. sereu angels bring seven plagues, and there are seven vials of wrath - In merely secular matters seven occurs frequently enough. We have seven won- ders of the world. seven champions of Christendom, seven sleepers, seven wise men, seven planets, seven deadly sins, seven ages of than, and our ordinary leases are made for coven or • multiple of seven years.. But however mystically significant three and seven iney be, they cannot lay claim to any sock peculiarities as are the property of the figure nine. That the ancients had nine.muses. pine rivers In the internal regions, a hydra with nine heads and nine gods for Lars Pursena to swear by, or that In modern times a cat has nine lives, that it takes nine tailors to snake a moo, or that possession Is nine points of the law. are facts that pale into insignificance after one has once sat down with pencil and pnper to investigate some of the special peculiarities of the figure nine. For imitates, if you mut ('ply nine by any other number you will find thnt the figures composing the prod- uct when added together will always amount to nine. Thus: 0x2-18 and 1 }1-8, 8x 8-27 and 2+7-0. O x a - 81 end t + e - 9. and so on to any extent On arriving at 11 times 9 we find wkat appears to be an exception, for the digits of 09 equal 18. But It will be observed that 18 Is a mut tiple of 9 and, moreover, that the figures composing It add np to 9. Another pe cutlarity ot thio Agora le discovered by taking any numbet of two figures of which the first figure Is of greater value than the second, &vat -stag these figures and then subtracting the nember thus ob tamed from the prlgine) number. R'hat- erer figures we may take, the result will always be 0 or some multiple of 9. The smallest possiblenumber of two figures of which the first ,figure Is larger than the second Is 21. Reverse the figures. and we get 12. Subtroct 12 from 21, nnd the remainder is 9. The largest similar number is 98. Reverse these, and we get 80. Subtract 89 from 98, and again the retnnlnder is found to be 9. Or let us take a case Io which 9 coat bines with the mystic 7. Tbc number 05 Is not divisible by 9. But It we odd 7 to It. either in front when it makes 7059, or in the middle, when it makes 675. or nt the end• when ft makes (167, we shall find that every one of these numbers is dives Me by 9. It is not every number which can thus be dealt with. end the render mny And en evenings entertelnment In trying to puzzle out the reason why. An example of s higher number may be civ en by wny of a little assistance: 890,573 Is not dlvlsible by 9, but If the mystic 7 be added to It, either 1n front, where It raises the amount by 7,090,000. or In any other position, each on. of the eight various amounts which may thus be ob talned becomes divisible by 9. The fact con be verified by any child who has mastered the first four rules of arithmetic, but the espisnallon of It 1a another matter. To Senior Wranglers or even to Junior Optlmes there may be nothing very myetertous about an this. And It may be that It any of ss would only pot himself through a course of the higher algebra, digest the Integral eaten lus and master s few 'muslin/ treatises on the theory of ditferenees eft thnt now seem. so perplesina in the matter would become as d9'o sr the multiplication t• Ile.
