FISH-CATACAZY.
THE DIPLOMATIC SCANDAL.
THE STORY TOLD IN TWO WAYS

Done up in Rhy me by the Lon. Cour Jour
FIsH-cATACAzY-THs ROMANCE OF THE
BEAUTIFUL RUSSIAN.
There was young lady named Berwick,
The pret,icst girl in all France;
She married Count who was no count
An Italian she met at dance.
Count F--won her love just d. 4sy
As rolling himself off log,
But soon he went gambling and drinking.
And lee her the life of dog.
Then rushed in a Russian Count quickly,
And snatched her away from her Iume
She loved the bold Russian direct v
they took departure from Rome.
They never stopped once, it is writer,
10 get the all-hoalng divorce
In Russia folks always Ike such things
As really matters OF cOUrsc)
Then they, having read Horace Greeley.
st out FOR the glorious West;
They rented and went to housekeeping,
With hcuse-iiles aud ants like the resi-
/ They afterwards rushed back to Russia
And back /" the grand Russian Court
/ he 81 ,rina grand;y rec" we'd them.
And didn look down on their sort.
Twas thus that the Count Catucazy
And the wife of the or nary Count
Got on with their matters right smoothly
Thing went like Davidson fount.
At length the bold Count Ca,acazy
Again Travelled owe: the sea;
lie went rs great uan from Russia
To the Court Of Ciys,c, II. &.
And Mad. Cat. of course he went with him
To the Court Of the rc,iccut Grant;
No doubt they We're loaded WITH pr, ,cnts.
Whatever such things may have meant.
Al the head Of Grants principal business
Was party named Hamilton Fish,
Ana few things in Washington happened
That Ham. Was not into the dish.
This h,h WIS the sort they call g. dish,
He'd W I On he'd married correct,
And Mr,. t,sh listen ID to eos,ips,
Who somehow d been led to suspect
They told her rs how they had heard IT,
That female from Russia WAS bad
Shed gone IRON her previous husband
Ana "ougnt to be cut - she had.
The virtuous wife Of Grants great man
w shocked at the horrible tale.
And up went her propcr Cd .tril,
From her nose migE have hing tin pail.
Al that time the Joint II Oh commission
HAD come on from London to dine.
And all The b e fl as aud Little
Were doing their darucurstto shine.
And thus it was clearly the province
or Mr.. II. Fish to give uut
The fat hat he'd give b.. dinner,
Al such and such tim', without doubt
he dinner came Of at the time set,
And all the gre It crpo wrIc there,

Coal dust furnaces are coming into

The process of electro plating with
nickel is being applied to many pur-
