Ay OFFICERS Z" NESS

A writer in LippiFcsti's says: at
CHANGED one day in 1870 business took
me to Monaco, and arrived in that cap
ital on the anniversary of the birthday
Of the reigning princess. The little town
was decorated with flags and banners;
'Te Deum' was sung in the abbey church,
and after high mass q review Of the army
took place in front of The castle, on the
Grand Place. Now happened TO be well
acquainted with the captain, who, the
instant he saw me watching the manpu-
vres, took the opportunity 10 come oven
and invite me TO dine with the officers
that evening, when they were to be re-
galed at q banquet at the expense OF the
princess, of course accepted, and was,
at about four in the afternoon, taken over
the guardhouSe, which is exquisitely
clean and neatly furnished. and Contains
q handsome chapel, q billiard-roOm, and
n well-supplied reading-room. Dinner
was served at five o'clock. and very
good one it was. The dining.room had
been in days of yore the refectory of an
ancient convent, and the men sat at two
long white wood tables placed facing
each other in the centre OK the chamber,
while the officers were accommodated
with O table to themselves at the top OF
the room. During the repaSt good deal
OF jcsting went on, tOaStS were drank,
and wine circulated freely. Some hot
heads among the youngsters began to
turn, and it became pretty evident that
it was more prudent TO consign the men
to the barracks than TO allow them to 60
out after dark through the town. The
colonel consequently gave the captain a
hint TO that effect. 1t soon got noised
about, however, and when the colonel
retired TO his private room TO smoke, his
key was suddenly turned from without
and he was locked in. The same thing
happened TO the captain and myself.
Presently the mostawful noises rcsound.
ed throughout the building; the army
was in q state of INSTRUMENTATION. Some
dozen young fellows came up to the
coloners door and declared that they
would not release him unless he granted
the extra leave which was theirs by right.
Furious was the gallant colonel, and 10
lessso my friend the captain. They swore
terrible vengeance, but The army cared
little for their threats, Over each door
throughout the whole building is cir
cular window, just large enough for a
man to put his head through. Wishing
TO see what was going on, | got up on a
chair and looked out Down the corridor
was q tide of upturncd, excited faces.
Out Of the next loophole to mine appeared
the infuriated face of the colonel. Pres
emily some bright wit in the lower part OF
the house was inspired with the brilliant
idea of firing off a gun. This decided mat
tiers, and making terrible effort the
colonel burst open his door, and rushing
down the corridor with drawn sword,
soon intimidatcd the rcvolutionists. By
and by the captain and myself weSe re-
leased from durance vile, and before
twenty minutes elapsed the revolt was
over. Decided a. was the action Of the
colonel, it was as kindly Us possible. He
treated his men as they deserved-like
unruly boys-lockcd them up for the
night, and promised them Ii. liday when
they were good"

The man also made signs which Jones

set the man at work with greater vio-
lence, and for the next halI hour they
stood in the hall, gesticulGting and twist

and, in an outburst of passion, exclaimed

Lake, on the Sierra Nevada range, 5000
feet above the level of the sea. The spot
on which il is situated is full of gold, and
in 1865 there was a great rush thither.
1,200,0 600 feet of the land being taken ur
in the SUMMER of that year. BY Spring
of the next year, California had become
perfectly wild over the golden prospects
of the region, and during May and juno
not less than 4,00O people found their
way up there, and real estate went up like
a kite, sixiy-by-eighty lots bringing from
$1,000 to S2,5C0 4 stock board was
formed, and the bulls and bears made the
wilderness hideous with bidding for the
stock of the various companies. Ovei
5000 was spent on these rocks, which
never yielded more than 800, 600,
though they were full Of gold, and town
of 600 houses was built. The trouble was
with the ore, in which there was some
substance that would not yield TO the
usual processes, and, in addition, the
snow was not unfrcQuently twenty-five
feet on o level, terrible storms being COM
mon in June, ell at once the people saw
that Nature had played an awful practi-
cal joke on them, and they abandoned
the town so prcciriiately that recen
visitor there, walking on snow-shoes
through the streets on a level with the
second stories, looking into the windows,
saw the furniture standing just as theo
cupants had last used it.
