St. Bartholomew Fair opened annually on August 24, the feast of the saint, and continued fourteen days. it wi great annual market of the Kingdom and the-ebief-cloth-fatr of the world. The shows were not discontinued until 1850, and of late there has been an effort toward the revival of the histor- ie exhibition, Sports and pastimes of the most brutal and: vulgar, nature marked the early fair, and its dedica- tion to a saint was hardly in keeping with its character, so far as its am- usement features were concerned. Sandwich was for centuries the scene of an annual observance of the festival, as the people of the place looked upon St. Bartholomew as thelr patron saint -and-deliverer- It was through his intercession, say the legendary accounts, that the city was saved from being looted by Eustace the monk, a famous pirate of the thirteenth century. This Eustace is sald to have become proficient in black art at Toledo, which in those times was-a centre for instruction in the mysteries of magic. He made an alliance with tho devil and became a black monk at Saint Saumer, where he cauesd great consternation in the monastery by making his fellow monks fast on feast days and feast on fast days, and to. perform ceremonies in honor of Satan. On the death of his father, a peer of Boulogne, Eus- tace became a nable, but was soon forced to flee the country. He became a pirate, with a fleet of thirty gelleys, and plundered Guernsey, Jersey and Normandy. On St. Bartholomew's Day he entered Sandwich Harbor, where the inhabitants prayed to St Bartholomew to come to their relief. Eustace had made his ship invisible, according to the old chronicle, but through the aid of the saint one Crab- be was enabled to board his vessel and cut off-the head of the dreaded buccaneer, Then a terrible storm arose and-destroyed the pirate fleet. In the midst of the tempest the good folk of Sandwich saw a man with red gar- ments, and heard a voice saying, I am Bartholomew, and am -sent to assist you, fear nothing. The people of Sandwich then built a hospital and chapel dedicated to St. Bartholo- mew and a custom was established which required that every twenty- fourth of August be observed by a solemn . procession of the commons, each member carrying a taper in his hand to be offered to their savior. GENTLEMAN FROM ALASKA 1S. JAMES WICKERSHAM, 55 TODAY -In-the House of Representatives at Washington there are five mn who J possess all the privileges and rights of membership in that body except for the trif ing detail of not being permitted to vote, These are the del- egates from Alaska, Porto Rico, Ha- wail and the Philippines, the latter sioners.

Mr. Wickersham is a native of Til-, having been born fifty-five years ago at Patoka, In that State. His early education was of the com- mon school variety, supplemented by a course of law reading which en- abled him to pass the examination and be admitted to the bar at the age of twtnty-three. In the ea he trekked westward toward the Pa- 1cffic, seftling In the State of Washing- ton, where he speedily won recogni- ton and was elected probate judge of Pierce County and city attofney of Tacoma, and later a member of the Washington State House of Repre- sentatives.
