arrival of the Albany train, Tuesday
morning, a lady, accompanied by a
colored man, dismounted and crossed
the arcade to the omnibus of one of
the first-class hotels. The lady enter
ed. and the man attempted to do the
same, but was taken by the arm by the
colored porter, who said, "You can't

driver. "But the lady is my wife!''
Il can't help that; I run this bus.

The miscegenationist took the deck,

An Old.Time Story.

GILES dc Laval was a wealthy and
powerful noble, owning several castles and
much landed property near the city Of
Nantes. lie had served with distinction
in the army during the reign of Charles
VII; had fought side by side with Joan
Of Are, aud had won the baton ofa Mar
shall After the war he retired to his
estates and plunged irto the life of de.
bauchcry then prevalent among the
Frcpch nobility. Church music was at
that time greatly in vogue with the high.
er classes,and every wealthy baron almost
had his paid body of choristers, who al.
ways accompanied him on his visits. De
Retz shortly announced his determination
to hire o band of fsuch choristers, and sent
out his servants among the peasantry with
orders to procure as many boy singers as
possible. For some time they were sue,
cessful; but the parents soon became
alarmed at finding that their children new
er returned. About this time an old
woman, whore face was always carefully
concealed by hood, made her appear
ance in the environs of Nantes. When.
ever she met with child alone or un.
protected, the old hag would either compel
or coax it to accompany her to the castle,
and none Of these little ones were ever
seen again. The frightened peasantry
now attempted to conceal their children /;
but tho servants Of the Marshal frequent.
ly appeared upon the scene and carried
the poor little things away by force.
Numbers of children Of both sexes disap.
peared in this manner, and the terror in
which the wretched people were held by
the mobiles at that time is well-ilustrated
by the fact that the parents dared not
complain. This state of affairs continued
for fourteen years. and might have con.
tinued much longer but for a happy
combination of circumstances. The Duke
Of Brittany. who had never borne any
good will to De Retz, happened to pay a

afternoon and more miserable was when

swept away by an act of his own siu and
folly.
That night he slept not wink. On
the following morning, pale and shaking,
he started to 60 away from his home

he was met by Cartwright's clerk, who
handed him sealed packet.

THE SECRET OF BUTTER MAKING.-A
correspondent Of the Springfield Repulll-
can gives some interesting details Of The
dairying at model farm, "Longvlew,
at Enfield, Ct, saying "In DR.. Grants
dairy, as soon as the butter granulationS
appear, few quarts of cold water are
poured into the churn for the dasher to
play upon, and also to facilitate the sep
aration of the butter from the buttermilk.
By means Of wooden ladle the butter
is removed from the churn to the oak
working table, whers also by means of an
oak octagon lever the buttermilk and
water are rolled out. The bare hand is
not used In the butter. Salt is then
worked in, for some customers only
quarter of an ounce to pound OF butter,
and the salted mass is placed in 4 close
frkin and carried into spring room to
be cooled and reworked into balls the
following day, In the final working q
sponge wrapped in linen napkin is used
to absorb the moisture. Some butter is
damaged by not working enough and
some by working too much. The true
mean is believed to be when the white
liquid ceases and the limpid water begins,
If all the water is worked out the butter
will be tough, waxy and lose its delicate
