aeaux s...c- . ..iiiat terrible conAagration is
now raging in that city. 1t broke out in
the lower quarter of the city near the river,

of Saint Michael, which was built in 1860,
the Church of Saint Paul, which was built
by Jesuits in 1916, and the Church Of the
College Royal, in which is the tomb of
Montague, are all said to be in danger
from the conhagration, as we'll as the Grand
Theater and Theater Rationale.

Prince Jerome Napoleon, the Palais Royal,
and on the other by series of luxuriant
cafes and restaurants.
At stated times band of musicians,
employed by the municipality of Paris per-
formed in the gardens, and the disturbance
last night was caused by the refusal of this
band to play the Marseillaise Hymn, which
was demanded by portion of the visitors
in the garden.
After repeated demands upon the musi-
clans for the performance of this air, rush
was made upon the music stand by por-
ton of the populace, and the musicians
found themselves in danger of being rough
ly handled
The Police arrested number of the ag-
gressors, and after some time quiet was re-
stored.

IMPORTANT FROM ZULULANp,

LONDON, Aug. 22.-The War Office has
received dispatched from the Cape of
Good Hope, stating that the military situa-
ton in South Africa is still unchanged.
The Standard has received dispatch from
its correspondent bearing the same
date as the official dispatch to the
War Office. The Standards correspondent
states that King Cetewayo has informed
Col. Crealock that he will accept reasonable
terms of peace, but he will not consent to
any terms which involves his deposition as
Monarch, or that would bring upon him
any humiliation. King Cetewayo is still
in command OF formidable army, and the
desertion from him of few of his chiefs
still leaves him in possession of resources
which makes him dangerous foe.
Foreign Flashes.
Joseph Octave de Lipierre, Belgian his
torian and antiquary, is dead, aged seventy

Sir John George Shaw Lefevre, Vice
Chancellor Of the University of London, is

Judgments of the Military Tribunal
against number of Nihilists have been
published. Five men were sentenced to be
hanged, one woman sent to Siberia, and
twenty-five other prisoners sentenced to
ten years penal servitude.
The authorities decide that the evidence
before the court-martial in Africa does not
justify the conviction of Lieutenant Carey.
The findings of the Court are accordingly
quashed. Carey retains his rank. He is re-
leased from arrest to-day. The sentence of
the Court was dismissal from the service.

Two boats rocked on TIE river
In the shadow Of leaf and tree,
One wa. N love with the hGrbor,
One was in love with the sea,
The one that loved the harhor
The winds Of fate ou;boce
But held the other, longing,
Forever against the shore.
The one that rests on the river.
In the shadow OF leaf AMI tree,
With wisttul eyes looks ever
To the one Jar out at sea.
The one that rides the billow,
Though sailing far and fleet.
Looks back to the peaceful river,
To the harbor safe and sweet,
One frsts against the quiet
OF the moss.grown shaded shore
One sighs that it may enter
That harbor nevermore.
One wearies OF the dangers
OF the tempest's rage and wall;
One dreams. amid the lilies,
OF far.off snowy sail.
OF all that life can teach US
There's nought 80 true as this:
The winds Of fate blow ever;
But ever blow amiss.

Ned went up to II house about half u
mile off, and got some hemp twine.
While he was cone the rest of us cut
crotchcd stakes to res. the guns Ill, and
set them in the ground round the hole.
Five guns were set pointing into the don.
When Ned came back with the twinc

cross-lines ran round sta ke to the trig-

1t was nice job to fix them, and q
rather cfitical one when it came to put.
ting the lines on the triggers. The guns
were then cooked. Each one had been
loaded as heavily as we dared to load it.
BY the time we got our guns set it
was fairly dark, and we went off home
as fast as we could. Early next morn
ing, before either George or | was up, o
boy from the house where we got the
twine came in. The family had heard
the guns go off late in the evening. AS

down and looked over the top of the
crag, and had seen the old wolf down on

We were soon out of bed and down
by the crag; and sure enough the old
pest, that had done SO much mischief,
lay stretched out there, not kicking, but
stone dead.
She had gone some fifty fee1 Or more
from the mouth Of her den, though both
her fore.legs were broken by buck-shot,
and bullet had traversed the whole
length of her body. Three Of the guns
had been discharged when she tripped

She was great bony, gal,nt, long
beast, the very embodiment Of rapacity
and tierceness. From muzzle to the tail
she measured but an inch short Of five
feet. We received a bounty of eight

How an italian Struck Gold.

Four years ago two young Italians. .left
Naples for California, hoping 10. better
their fortunes. They arrived within the
Golden Gate with just enough money to
convey them to the mines in the interior.
They were advised to 60 to Downieville
and seek work in the Sierra But,es mine,
where a large force was wanted. On their
journey one fell sick by the wayside and
was taken in by kind-hearted farmer.
The other pushed ahead and finally
reached the end Of his journey in safety.
He failed to Obtain employment on the
ground that he neither understood mining
nor the English language After receiv-
ing numerous rebuffs, he Started to re-
turn to the lower county again. At a
point between Loganville and Downievlle,
and ten miles from the latter place, he
became so weary, footsore and dishear-
tened that he began to wish himself back
in sunny Italy once more among the vinss
and olives. He grew teversh thinking
over his trials and tribulalions, and stop
ped at spring 10 lave his head and mois-
ten his parched throal. Cattle had been
that way short time before, and with
their feet stirred up The lrnpid water un-
til 1t became thick with mud. The ltal.
ian scooped out basin in one side Of the
shallow spring, and waited until the de.
bris should settle 10 the bottom that he
might slake his thirst and bathe his brow.
BY and by the water became as clear as
a crystal, and he stopped over 10 quaff Of
it. As he did 50 an astonishing sight
burst upon his vision. The bottom Of
the spring was strewn with bright, yellow
PARTICLES that glttered in their watery bed.
With all his ignorance Of mining, Ae knew
he had found gold. He scraped up a
handful Of dirt. and took from i! four or
FIVE dollars worth Of coarse and fine
pieces Of gold. With them he rushed
exciledly to camp where lived some Of
his own coun.ynien and offered to give
them an interes. in his find. He told the
story Of his discovery but they we're in.
credulvus. saying that some miner had
stopped at the spring to drink and lost
what was found. from his purse. One Of
them, however, who was more kind.
hearted than the Others, sympathized with
the stranger, and volunteered TO help pros.
pect the claim, although he had no con.
fidence in developing a permanent or
profitable one. The frs. day they panned
out seven hundred dollars. Since then
they have worked it constantly and on an
extensive scale. 1t has paid handsomely
from the first. Last year they took ou.
$4,000 and sold one.quarter interest
for SEC, 900 more. l, is no. vet fully de

and drifting processes. This story reads
like romance; still there never was a
truer one, as everybody around Downie.
