ANNIE KLINE, the daughter of Mis-
sissippi planter, became somewhat famous
during the war as a rebel spy, and was
once sentenced to death, but finally
liberated. Her family lost all its wealth,
and she subsequently went to California
having married William Townsend. In
San Francisco she started a mandatory
of wax flowers and did very well until,
in an anti-Chinese riot, her estsblishs
ment was burned. A suit against the
city for damages failed, and at last
accounts she had disappeared, with her
daughter, leaving letter indicating that
she meant to kill herself and the child.

STANLEY AFRIoANUs is sgain at the
head of an exploring expedition and on
his way through the Dark Continent"
He has enlisted many of his old followers
at Zanzibar, paid them advanced wages,
and promised them a visit to Europe
when their journey is over. The expe-
dition is provi ded with a steam launch,
a large cutter, and many pierced iron
plates. These last are doubtless to serve
as projections to boat crews when navi-
eating the lakes or rivers. 1t is sup
posed that the destination of the party is
the Congo, but it is probable that the
great tributaries of that river will be
more objects of search thsn its main
channel, which has already been traced
out. The enterprise is at the expense
and under the auspices of the Belgian
government.

father teIegraphed to Paris that Louis
had received his baptism of fire."
After the collapse of the second empire
at Sedan, he was taken to Chislehurst,
England, where he remained in retire-
ment. The prince received high honSrs
in the examination at Woolwich acade-
my in 1875, ard soon after the war in
Zululand began he was seized with 8
desire to participate, and joined the
English forces. It has been the dream
of the Bonapartists that in time the
prince imperial would ascend the French
throne. His death will materially affect
their projects and cannot fail to exert
considerable influence on French poll
tics Avalanche.

MORE persons are now employed in
the mills of Paterson, New jersey, than
ever before. The greatest expansion is
in the silk industry. To-day there are
in Paterson not less than five hundred
looms owned by practical wesveTs, and
operated under their immediate super
vision in rooms, gsrTets and sheds. and
every place where a loom can be worked.
Whole families thus find employment in
their own homes; the men do the most
difficult part, and the women and chill
dren assist. The price of labor in the
town has advanced, and common lab II
ers are scarce at $1.25 a day.

Mr.. WILLIAM R. SMITH the curator
of the Botanic Garden at Washington,
is a stalwart champion of the English
spsrrows. He says that they have not
troubled the other birds in the garden,
with whom they are in the most friendly
relations. Before the introduction of
the sparrows it wss impossible to make
an elm tree flourish in that city. Now
the streets planted with elms are the
prido Of Mr.. Smith and his associate
foresters, who regard the elem as the
most thrifty of the eighty thousand
trees which they have planted.

THE telegraph has announced the
death of the son of the late emperor
Napoleon, who several months since
joined the English army in Africa. He
was killed while Teconnoitering in sd.

France, was twenty.three years olJt

What American Girls are Taught.

What American Girls are Taught.
Philadelphia Record.
The new-fangied twist which the school
teachers are imparting to the rising gen
Grafton in the pronunciation of certain
words, the language of an aged citizen
who rises to subject, is "sgiu nstur and
sense, and nothing like the way they
taught fifty years ago"
Having fished his sideSbOard collar
from the depths of an old black stock,
where it had gradually sunk under the
weight of perspiTstion, this old fashioned
citizen, who had climbed up five flights
of steep steps to be interviewed, began:
" My youngest darter said TO me the
other day Pa, Is Bostoug as large as
Philadelphia ?'' Boston, my child said
l. B-o-s- ton il not. Then I laughed
What are you lOffiug st, pa said she.
Then / began 10 rile right up. Sez I
Sarey, who told you call it BOstong,
and who taught you to say loff for laugh.
ingP My schuie mOster,' Gays she.
Then I hesved out a word that they
don't teach children in school, and be
gan to cross examine her. " Why, sir,"
and here the old gentleman began to
wipe the ooziDgs from his corrugated
brow, Why, sir she called Baltimore
Baltimore; nalf, as though it was hoff !;
and went over string of words that
would have made an old-time teacher
boom around a schsOl house with q
rattan in a manner not appreciated in
thi. day by fancy kinds. The members
of the board Of education can talk till
the crack of doom, and no doubt they
will, but they couldn't beat it into my
head, or aay others fellow who went to
school forty years ago, that Boston is
Bostong, or laugh is loft" Having said
this, and pune he'd q score of imaginary
holes in the floor with his cane, the out
ragged father brsced up his collar, and
climbed down the stairs again.

ALTHOUGH the ftulip manis" in Hol-

just Think of it, Girls.

Lucy Hooper has often given the Eng
lish ladies a severe csstigation for their
utter want of ''style." II is q jubiect of
which she seems never to grow weary.
She goes for them again in recent let
ter to the Boston Gazette:
Shade of our ancestress Eve, surely
you wore your iesfen girdie with more
style and grace than do these, your
British descen iants, their tieebscks and
their Jackets. WHAT is the matter with
the women-they are clothes~blind-
style blind evidently, as some unfor-
tunates are born colOr-blind. The more
they try t. dress the woTse they fail in
the attempt Lately st a splendid Lon
don ball 3 lady appeared in custom Of
gray and black silk and cashmere with
high neck and long sleeves reaching TO
