sovEREIeEs DINING IN A STABLE.

In Chantilly are the remains of what
was once the most magnificent palace in
France, with the celebrated stables OF the
Prince de Condo. The palace was one of
the finest residences in Europe, but the
Chateau d'Enghien, the Chateau Bourbon
and the Tennis Court are all that remain
of that pile of buildings once so superb
and so much admired. The stables, the
most elegant and eommodious in Europe,
suffered little at the time of the revolu-
ton; very few of the sculptured orna-
ments were injured by the destructive
mob they were all illustrative of subjects
of the chase, but the greater number were
placed high up out of reach, and thus es.
capped the fury and rough treatment of the
people, who, while respecting the seulp-
tured bears, stays, horses and dogs, made
sad havoc of all the ensigns OF royalty and
power. The shields and armorial bearings
then destroyed have been replaced, but not
so the famous leaden statue which sur
mounted the dome; it was thrown
down and cast into bullets. This
fine building contains stables, ken
uels, coach. houses and a riding-school.
The first are truly magnificent. Over the
center rises a circular dome with gallery
round its base at great height from the
ground, into which open the grooms' apart
menys. On either side of this building
runs the avenues OF the stables, right and
left in a straight line. On one side were
the stalls of eighty English hunters, ali
carefully and cleaniy groomed; on the
other sixty carriage horses from Flanders.
When the allied sovereigns were in Paris
after the fall OF Napoleon, they visited the
Prince de Condo at Chantilly. The Prince
had the center hung with curtains, SO as to
shut out all sight of the horses, and other
wise ornamented it. Therein he enter
tanned the sovereigns at sumptuous ban
quet. Alter dinner the Emperor Alexander
told Condo that it was the finest banquet
ing-room he had ever seen. The Prince re-
piled that His Majesty was only in the
midst of his stables and among his horses.
The Emperor would not believe it. Condo
gave a whistle in an instant the curtains
were drawn aside and displayed l40 horses
standing in their stalls with a groom In
livery at the head of each. The Emperor
was as much astonished as he was gratified
at this sight.

WHO WILL BE TEHIR KING.

Apropos of the Jews, l heard story
the other day that admirably illustrates
their intense belief in their future. 1t was
told me by poet A few years ago was
visiting at the house Of in New
York, and there was brilliant company
assembled there. 0ae evening there was a
reception, and among the people who came
was gentleman of such noble mien, such
lofty features such a superb and digniied
presence, such a placid serenity, such q
manly beauty in every line of bis face and
person, that as he moved in the crowd |
couldn't turn my eyes away from him. He
seemed to hold me with spell. | think
he was the handsomest man l ever saw it
wasn't merely physical beauty it was
spiritual beauty as well. HIS whole face
was radiant with the "solar light" He
had very dark eyes-large, Oriental eyes-a
eonine mass of black hair, and was full
bearded. I was SO fascinated by him that
l hardly felt like talking, but after a while
found myself seated beside a charming
Jewess, Miss 4, young womsn full
of enthusiasm for her race, and proud 10
talk of it.
"Ob," said she, " the day is not far dis.
tant when we shall go back to Jerusalem.
We are accommodating wealth and power
that We may bring them together there
and make it like the city of dream. The
great bankers, the Rothschilde, and the
rest will bring their wealth there, and we
shall rebuild the temple with their treas

things. Our blood makes good leaders.
Beaconsfield is Jew, Jules Simon is a
Jew, and there is Hebrew blood in Gam

what nights we might rise if the foot of

promised-your God and mine.'
''Then, said the poet, you'll choose

No, no, we have our King. Our King
must be of the lineage of David
''And can you find son of David after
all these centuries ?"
"Oh, yes it is part of our religion to

a setting straight OF genealogies at every
week of week.yesr (forty-nine years.. We
know where to find our King-he is al

"And where is he now?' asked the
poet.

FaE BULL AND THE PATENT GATE.

Mr.. Wigwam is a farmer residing in
Drumore township, Lancaster county,
Wis, and recently one of those agents
that infest the country came along and
tucked of Oh him az automatic gate. The
gate was so arranged that the weight OF a
person approaching it would cause it to
rise, and when they had passed under it,
down it came. This gate was painted red,
and the day after 1t was put in position, a
cross bull, owned by MIR. Wigwam, dis
covered it. A bull, somehow, has q rooted
antipathy for that hue, and this animal no
sooner discovered the gate than it made a
rush to gore it. OF course, as the bull ap-
preached the gate, his weight caused 1T TO
Use, and he passed under it, and his failure
TO hit anything solid seemed to affect him
about as it does a man to 90 up dark
stairway, and when ne has reached the
top thiak there is one step more,
and step for Ii, and bring his
foot down go hard that it makes
the sole Jingle as if slapped by single,
ana leaves the print of the boot on the
floor. When tie bull recovered a little
and looked back and saw the gate, which
had come down in its original position. he
couldn't quite understand how he had
passed it, ana what had happened, and he
stood aud thrashed himself with his tail,
and thought of it for a minute, and then
tried it again. Same result. Bull more
puzzled than ever and awful mad. Another
trial. Bull only succeeds in roofing his
nose in the ground. Bull almost delirious
with rag. Wigwam who is watching
him from the house, in the same condition
with laughter The bull evidently made
up his mind to hit the gate or die in the
attempt, and he tried the thing seven more
times, and yet the gate stood there every
time, when he looked back. Then having
wrenched himself and scraped the hide
off his nose, and got quite out of breath,
the animal became discouraged and drew
aside and merely watched the gate. But
Wigwam, hadn't had enough OF the fun.
He took a mirror, and went out and
climbed upon the gate, and caught the sum
light upon the mirror, and flashed it in the
bulls eyes TO madden him. 1t did. The
bullrushed once more at the gate. Wlgwam
expected the gate to rise up with him and
let the bull pass. But his weight held the
gate down. The bull hit the gate square.
Wigwam was knocked forty feet and got
his eyes and mouth full of dirt and was
badly skinned. The mirror was shattered.
And the bull caught his horns and one foot
IL the gate, which broke from its fasten-
ings, and he went madly careering about
with it on his horns, struggling to release
himself, and Wigwam didn't dare go to his
rescue, and was too much hurt to do any
thing anyhow, and finally the bull, tearing
up everything in his reach, threw himself
and broke his neck. Loss, S301. Wig
wan lays all the blame on the gate agent,
which. perhaps. is natural.
