Tho Late Queen of Holland,

Sidney Hyde gives the foilo wing ac-
count of his first visit to the lato Queen
of Holland. Upon our fir st formal
audience wo were received in ono of
the State Departments, a fino salon,
hung with rose-colored satin and CAV
with gilded furniture and wax candles ;
but when wo were asked "to tea" it
was In her own private parlor that tho
Queen entertained us, charming
great room, with tropical plants grow
Ing In tho windows, and a grand piano
at ono end. Books and ornaments were
scattered about, and cabinets of curlosi-
ties stood against tho wall; easy-chairs
and little tables went wandering COM
fortably about tho floor; and a general
air OF home-likcness porvadea tho spa
cious apartment, whose walls were
hung with interesting pictures, filled
with associations to tho student of his
tory.
One evening, when wo arrived, we
found the Queen reading Kinglako's
Invasion of the Crimea," In which
she was greatly Interested. His dra-
matic characterizations pleased her
particularly, and above all the hits at
her late uncle, Nicholas Of Russia, who
as the writer observes, tried hard to DO
gentleman; but underneath all his
superficial polish still lay tho "gypsy
INSTINCT" which prompted him on
occasion to do some mean act.-
Inspired by our interest, ,theQueen DRIFT
cd into various personal recollcctions
Of her visit to Napoleon ILL.,, and re-
lated little anecdote Of the Prince
Imperial when ho was about six years
old. 1t seems that the Emperor had a
troop Of boys Of the Princes ago under
drill, and the Prince himself was one
of the regiment; and one day, when
the Queen was questioning him lightly
rs to what he meant to do II. the world :,
he replied bravely, In true Napoleonic
fashion, Madame, l shall be SOL
der" "But you are 80 little," said her
Majesty, "they cannot make you an Of
ticer; you will have to be private al
ways" "Pardon, madame," said the
little fellow, making military salute,
"je suis dcja caporal." The Empress
Of the Frenoh Hor Majesty thought
woman Of excellent parts, but over
whelmed with all sorts OF frivolties
outside Of horself. ".Thero Is 80 much
to do" SAID the Queen naively, "I
wonder how she ever gets through 1t
all. 1t was one tumult from morning
till night. could not have endured
It," At Osborne, whore she visited
Queen Victoria, she was oppressed by
tho dullness and formality. She
thought the Queen Of England per-
son Of extraordinary information, but
tho slavery of etiquette which sur
rounded her was uncomfortable. From
this very slavery it was tho desire Of
the Queen Of Courcanale to deliver her-
self, and her own life was ono OF Wig
orons action and intelligent effort. She
rose daily at seven walked, wrote, and
read at fixed hours, corresponding with
half the savants of Europe on matters
Of literary and scientific interest. Sho
drew around her all the intellectual
people Of her court, accosting them
without formality or pretenslon, inter-
rogatlng them, enjoying their different

Through Il Tran Door.

The proprietor Of store on W
street was looking out upon the rain-
be-drizzlcd streets and figuring that
he wouldn't make cent during tho
whole afternoon, when hard-up look
ing stranger wet to tho hide, walked
softly in and took Il seat in Il chair.
"Any thing to lhy ?" asked tho mer-
chant.
The answer was n lonesome shake of
the head.
"Bad weather to day.
Another weary shake replied.
After five minutes OF silence, the
stranger got up and began walking tho
store. The trap door leading to the
basement was up, and in ono of his
turns he went down cut OF sight like a
bag of shot. The merchant called out
when it was too late and he ran to tho
trap and poered down tho dark stairs
with tho cxpcctlon of seeing corpse
on tho collar bottom. Instead OF that
tho strange man appeared on tho stairs
ana ascendcd without help. He was
covered with dust from head to foot
and his coat split up tho back, and tho
merchant fastened to say:
81 am very sorry, indeed. I forgot
the trap-aro you much hurt?"
"My frlend," replied the stranger as
he turned around and extended his
hand, 'you have been tho means of
saving mo Shake hands with mol''
The merchant thought tho tall had
mado lunatic, but he shook and tho
man went on: "Fivo minutes ago was
half drunk and desperate. had
about made up my mind to murder
some one and then jump into the river.
That fall has given mo new and better
ideas. From this hour am new man,
with better life before mo Shake
again ~
"Ah--ycs-vcry STRANGE" etammer-
cd tho merchant as he shook, and tho
stranger said as he stood in the door:
81 thank you from the bottom Of nv
heart for leaving that trap open! Wife
and children shall bless your name and
| can never forget you'll Goodbye, sir
ten thousand blessings Heaven keep
you n It's care - Us ls,
The merchant puzzled over the case
for a long tlme and then went down
the cellar and found evidences that the
stranger had ooolly jumped down there
rolled In the dust, and during the brief
moment secured about his porson5 four
dozen pocket knives and a package OF;
Of gloves. Then there was another
"shake,"

Albert Brown, uncle of George A. Land
phere, the man who was murdered at Crow
Greek, arrived last night from Virginia,
Union county, in response to q telegram in.
forming him of the. assassination of his
nephew. 1t was Mr.. Browns intention to
60 to Grow Greek and ecover the remains,
and bring them away, but he has decided
that such a trip would bs useless at this
season Of the year and will wait for cooler
weather. The authorities at Fort Thomp-
son have been requested to hunt up the
body and bury it and they will doubtless
comply with the request. 81
Mr.. Brown says his deceased nephew. was
. young man of very little experience in the
ways Of the world. this being almost bis
fret venture away from home. He had
gained, from the perussl Of dime novel
literature, an exaggerated idea of life on
the frontier, and, like many q mistaken
youth, had an ambition to participate in the
scenes pictured so glowinRly in this dam
aging class Of fiction. Mr.. Brown was 10th
to let him depart with the Beebe party and
was at one time almost persuaded to per-
emptorily forbid it. He finally yielded,
against his better judgment, and the boy

TO THE PUBLIC.

The public have learned something Of
late with regard to the serious and extern
sive adulteration Of one of the most import
ant articles of domestic use, namely, Vine
gar, and are justly incenscd that there are
men so base and unconscientious as to man
%ufacture a positive poison. which, under the
name Of "pure vinegar" is in daily use in
thousands Of families, hotels and eating
houses, to the great detriment of the general
health. 1t is something truly startling to
be informed that more than one-half the
vinegar in the market and in general use 10
more or less injudiciously adulterated and
rendered unfit for human consumption. But
there is no question as to absolute purity of
the vinegar offered by John Glab, of Du.
buque, Iowa. The public can use it with
the utmost confidence as to its freedom
from mineral. acid. etc. 1t is both clear
and of fine color and favor. This vinegar
can be obtained of Frank Hefner, Capital
~street, Yankton, who is agent at this place.
A large stock of the various grades always
on hand, and I would respectfully invite
the public to visit my warehouse and ex-
anime these fine v~inegars, and I am posi-
tive that they will then buy no other.
We can refer you to Jacob Max, Blatt &
Buerdorf and A. Kaiser, who have all tried
it and will have no other.
Yours truly,
