what Parisians Dine Upon.

Paris is no longer the gastronomic paradise
that it was of old. The Parisians dine on the
architecture of set Dishes on damask linen,
on the brillancy of the glassware, on the flow
ers that are ON the table, on the white cravats
of the walters, but ON butter at 80 cents
pound, and on ordinary wine from the wine
shops round the corner, on fish with the bones
painted in bistre on the fillets by one of those
mysterious and ingenious artists whose spec

ventor of this industry was one named Cha
pellier, who invented the trade of painter of
turkeys feet" He had noticed that the poul-
terers lost largely on stale stock. The sign by
which the staleness of a turkey, for instance,
is betrayed in the increasing paleness of the
legs and feet Chapelier invented varnish
to tone up the color. His successors have in

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Nov 28-Commercial
circles in Milwaukee are shaken to their very
foundation by the failure Of the old firm Of l.
Newbauer & Sons, wholesale and manufactur-
ing clothiers, at 1856 and 1913 Broadway, which
has braved tie financial storms and vicissi-
tudes o' business cares covering a period of
thirty years. An assignment was made yes
terday to George Tracey. who Immediately
filed his bond in the sum Of $4,000. The
assets are placed at s125,OOO, while the
liabilities are utterly unknown, proba-
bly, crowding close to 100000. The down.
fall was caused by bad debts, de-
probation in stock and the extreme dullness
of the season. The principal creditors reside
in Milwaukee and New York, and none but the
preferred creditors are as yet known, as twelve
days are given in which to list them The
largest Of tie preferred creditors are: Mil

noon that the failure was in measure due to
the populations of A. Herischeine, formerly
bookkeeper, who succeeded in robbing the
firm of large sum.

Christine Missions Tenor.


The association of Mr.. Abbey's new tenor,
Theodore Biorkshen, with Christine Nilsson is
not devoid of romance. He is a young Swede,
aged %, and very good looking. When the
prima donna was last in Stockholm she was
followed wherever she went by a crowd, which
would gather in front of her hotel in the hope
Of catching glimpse of her Among those ad-
mirers one young man was conspicuous for his
assiduity, and Nine. Nilsson at last became
quite annoyed at the persistent attention Of
her young worshiper. One evening she
found herself being serenaded, and she could
not fail to be struck by the clear tones of a
tenor voice which rose above the rest Send
ing for the singer she discovered that this
tenor was none other than her young admirer.
He belongs to good family in Stockholm,
being the son of the governor Of the castle.
When quite boy he vowed, in the name Of
his country-woman, Christine Nilsson, to
devote himself to music; and, though destined
by his parents for the nav. "e underwent, at
his own expense, a course ~ 'ingihg lessons
Nine. Nilsson was so attractH by his voice
and enthusiasm that, taking him under her
patronage, she placed him with one Of the best
masters In Paris.

they could manage. The lesson of such cases
is not to attempt too much, but to keep to

The Case Continued Again---When
and Where They Were Married.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 24-When the case Of
D. R. Hale was called in the municipal court
word was received from the district attorney
that he was still engaged in cir
cult court and could not be
present to conduct Hale's prosecution. Under
the circumstances, the court granted contin-
uance till tomorrow. Hale was not present
in court but was represented by his counsel,
Mr.. J. R. Mckinney. The latter expected to
have his client released as soon as the exam
ination can be reached, as he says that there
is not particle of evidence against the man.
A correspondent at Kenosha telegraphs
Douglas r. Hale was married to Emeilns
G. Bender by the Rev. Thomas Bell,
of the Episcopal church. This settles the
fact of the marriage, and also tends to
confirm Mike Weavers statement that
the woman never was married to him, 1t 10
still question, however, as to what has be-
come of her first Observation-Disclosures
whether he is alive or not. 1t is two years
since he was heard from somewhere in the
territories and it is a charitable presump-
ton to suppose that he is dead, and
that the last marriage is consequently all
right As was stated the other day, Mrs.
Weaver applied for divorce from Mike
Weaver on the 25th of July of last year, and
the bill, which was filed in Chicago Is still
pending There has not been time enough
for her to get divorce from Weaver or any
body else, if one were necessary, i'll Wisconsin
or any other state, and the presumption is,
therefore, that her relation with Weaver was
of such character that it really didn't re-
quire the aid of the law to break the bonds

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 24.-Among some interviews

one of the principal establishments in the city,
He said no matter what the cause of the de-
moralization was, it was highly probable that
free trade fears might be an cement
in it The chief point to be consoles ed
was how to adjust the cost of manu-
facture to the market price of the pro-
duct and leave a margin of profit He be-
ieved the first place to begin was reduction
both in the cost of labor aud the amount en-
ployed. A careful consideration of the sub
ject of both employer and empioye would
accomplish the one, and the intro luction of
labor-saving machinery would secure the
other. reasonable tariff is of course neces-
sary, he said, and must be maintained; but all
the tariffs i'll the wOr,d will not help the iron
trade or iron manufacturers if it is g ping to
cost the market price OF ton to make a ton.

Aged and HOnOred.

Dem0rests Monthly.
1t has been well remarked that there is
mellow splendor in the sunset Of Victor Hugos
life which has seldom been accorded to great
men in their decline. The great Frenchman
has led noble life-one full of useful activi-
ties He is the first poet of France, if not of
his age; while as writer Of romances and
constructor of dramas, he is unequaled by his
contemporaries He is now quite old, but his
life is as active as ever and full of kindly
charities. He recently gave a hundred
children, most of them orphans, banquet
at Ysules, where he presided himself After
the dessert, he made the following charming
little speech:
"My dear little friends At Veules am your
guest. Receive me- and listen to me, as
Jennie and Georges, who are now absent. re-
ceive and listen to their grandfather. Look
upon me as they do, for l have a grand
fatherly affection for you all, and you should
return love with affection. Love your parents
and when you are older, love France, who
is the mother of us all As YOU
are young, weak, poor, you have a right to
our tenderness. At the Sale d'Aisle to begin
with, and at the school afterward, you will
learn and with time accomplish the progress
necessary to good education. You bear the
weight of life, and already the weight of many
of the duties attached to life But to-day we
shall not think about them. We have met
here to be glad, and to enjoy ourselves, and to
eat and drink together. Remember this here
after as feast of love, and, whenever you see
an orphan think of the old man who now in
vites you to be happy and who blesses you be
cause you are little children, poor, and or
phans."

nounced the author of the overthrow of the
