There is a good story told of one of the
 bloated bondholders whose wealth dates just far enough back to keep him outside the pale
 of the 7aouJelLe elite, but no more. He had
 built himself big plate-glass mansion, with
 silver oor-handles, set up carriage, and
 kept "Waiter man" to open the door. This
 did well enough for 8 year or so, but finally
 the old mans soul grew weary. His aristo-
 cratic sensibilities had expanded beyond his
 power to give them scope in this simple
 minded town, so, of course, he and the old
 woman packed up and went to Europe.
 Hitherto he had contented himself with
 monogram, but when he got to London he
 saw the best people had crests and notices on their carriages and note paper. So he went to a celebrated advertising heraldic stationer, and commissioned him to get him up a coat of arms regardless of cost. The shopman was bit of wag in his way, and took. the old fellows measure at glance.
 What you want is crest and motto, sir,
 said he politely. ''I guess so," replied the old chap; ''what the big bugs here have on their carriage doors" Precisely, sir, " said
 the man; we'll fit you up one in the latest style" He was requested to call next day and see the design, and promptly went. The crest was a mailed arm holding a dagger | sssonaething uncommon" 7" the heraldry man l said-and the motto, Semper nO6ilis omnibus
 6enignals which means, he explained, trans lating freely, Always noble and kind to
 everybody" The old man was delighted. | s'Now, the latest style of printing nottoes, 7" pursued the stopman, Sis in initializing the words after the fashion of the old Roman
 motto: lSersatus populus que Ronaants. which
 the ancients abbreviated into s. P. Q. R. Of course you'd like yours done like that, sir ?"
 Most assuredly," assented the old fellow l with renewed delight and he forthwith or l dered couple of reams of note-paper, and envelopes to match, stamped instanter, ln gold and silver and every known hue. Well, he and his wife used the stationery a month
 or so, writing to every one they could think of, to show how ''toney" they had grown,
 when one fine morning, while studying with
 more scrutiny than usual the beauty of the decoration, it suddenly dawned upon him that
 the caption of the sheet to which he had been daily and hourly afixing his valuable sigma
 ture was nothing more nor. Jess than s. N. O.B.

GCorEe6pQndence Of the London Times
 Nothing can more surprise those who come here for the first time, and who regard the closing of the gaming tables as "a blazing question, :" than the utter apathy of the in- habitants If asked what they think about the suicides which are said to be of frequent occurrence, they reply that they never hear of them. Nowhere are suicides so carefully and successfully concealed. So thorough is the mystery surrounding them that skeptics declare them to be the inventions of malevo- lent and imaginative minds. An influential native of Monaco told me that, granting the statements to be well founded, the propor- ton of suicides to the population of this place, for the time being, is not greater than. that of Paris or even Nice. He added that when spectators lose money and commit suicide in Paris no one proposes to close the bourse nor, when the same thing occurs in Nios is it proposed to close the clubs there. The pist of his views was that, as regards the present case, suicide is no argument and on this point am not disposed to disagree with him. An impression generally prevails that the gaming tables here are as accessible to the public as those of Baden, Wiesbaden and Hamburg were in by-gone days. The truth Is that no person is admitted without card that no inhabitant of the Principality of Monaco is admitted at all, and that admit tance is also refused to the inhabitants of the department of the Maritime Alps who are not members of the principal clubs. It is true that the difficulty in procuring a ticket is not great; but it Is quite as great as to procure one to enter the Casinos at Aix in Savoy, TrouviIle and other French watering places, where every opportunity is provided for losing money at play. For those who do not game there are many enjoyments to be had here free of cost. A reading-room, well

Siberia overrun With Mice.


 After all the Czar is not to have it all his own way in Asia. While dull world has been imagining that the English government WAS taking no steps to prevent that consum- nation, the whole edifcs of the Russian em- pire is, it appears, on the point of collapse With an amount of sstuteness that does him every credit, Lord Ripon has kept silent on the matter, but the Calcutta EnsiSltflsH at last lets the cat-or rather the mice-out of the bag. These are England's allies in the grand work of staying the course of Russian aggression. Afghan help might be treacher- ous, not to mention its costliness. Persian aid does not count for much the Chinese would probably not appear in the field until a few years after the struggle had terminated. As for the Turcomans what bribe have we to offer those predictions people compared to that blissful footing of India which Russia could dangle before their eyes? An ally had plainly to be looked for in some new quarter, and almost without the looking this kind friend has already appeared. Our Calcutta contemporary reports that countless myriads of Indian mice have made their way to Southeastern Siberia, plundering granaries and destroying crops wherever they go. On they march, relentless, remorseless, through Fergana, through Seniretchausk, and right up to the shores Of Lake Balkasch. The af frighted people know not wkat to do to stem the devastating deluge, and even the daunt- less Russian warriors turn pale when the cry goes forth, ''The mice are coming!" Rome was saved by geese perhaps history will hereafter relate how the English empire, af- ter being very nearly lost by human geese, was saved by mice.

 ''how any reform Republican can vote for any of their nominees except Rawle.

Her turn has come at last. Let her make the most of it." Senator Mitchell says: ''So far as am concerned, do not propose to in dorse this (Cameron's) way of running the party affairs in Pennsylvania.

 How pleasant it is to gaze on the innocent amusement of happy childhood! There is little Johnny playing beside the newly-paint- ed fence.

The proceedings of the Pennsylvania Re- publican convention showed that Cameron no longer entirely owns the party in that State, but they were not satisfactory to the Independents who, it is said, will nominate a separate ticket. Wharton Barker is report ed as saying that the Independents will put 8 ticket in the field and strain every nerve to defeat the Republican machine candidates. Mr. Francis B.
