A Dairy.Maid,s Disaster.

: Among the brilliant coterie of beauties
that surrounded the Prince of Wales at
Brighton in the early part of the present
century was Lady Haggerstone, whose
charms had at first sight attracted the
admiration of Florizel. But not content
with the general admiration which his
Royal Highhess was disposed to grant
to all pretty women, her ladyship was
ambitious to completely captivate the
heart of the heir apparent. Accord
ingly a fete chdmpetTe was announced to
come off at her pretty=little villa near
the Spa, and her ladyship was determined
to charm the Prince by assuming a rustic
dress that would have satisfied the taste
of Vatican. At her residence she had
a miniature farm-yard and three pretty
little Alderneys. When the Prince
with his friends and attendants had ar
rived the fair hostess came forward from
a side wicket, dressed as a milk-maid,
for the purpose of making syllabub for
the Prince. She had silver pail in one
hand and an ornamental stool in the
other. Thus equipped she tripped
along, with ribbons flying from her
dainty little milking-h hats that hung on
one side of her graceful head, and the
smallest little apron tied below her lace
stomacher, till she came opposite his
Royal Highness, to whom she dropped q
carefully studied, bewitching rustic
curtsy. Then passing lightly over the
beautifully plated straw her tucked-up
gown showing her neat ankle as wen as
her colored stockings, she placed her
stool and pail conveniently for use.
Leaning against the flank of one of the
crossest-looking of the Alderneys she
was about to begin her pretty task; but,
not relishing this new and strange COM
panion, the animal at once commenced
kicking out, upsetting stool, pail and
milk-maid, and then trotting coolly away.
Lady Haggerstone rose, covered with
confusion, and beat a hasty retreat into
her little dairy, whence she did not
emerge again that day.-London Society.

The California Pioneer.

The old forty-niner, or Spring-of-ffty
man, is an interesting Californian. He
can generally impart great deal of his
tory of his early and thrilling experience
in the State. He is not scarce by any
means. It is not always exactly clear
when he came here, but the fact of his
being here now is sufficient. He hasha
his experience somewhere; and If one
will listen he will not wait for a hint to
tell it. "The days of the Vigilance Com
mittee," began one of them, "were hap
py, peaceful ones to me. We were filled
with hope, and we had enough gold dust
in our bags to dazzle US, and to make Us
uneasy as to how we should spend it.
Gold dust was coin in those days There
were some mighty mean men then, and il
the Vigilance Committee had not been
formed, it is hard to say what would have
become of us The men who composed
that committee were noble men, full of
courage, of moral strength and character.
One could count on them every time
They meant business from the word go.
They were fair, too. When q man was
accused of certain crimes, he was allowed
to bring in his witnesses, but the trial was
secret If he had sufficient evidence in
his favor, he could go; but, as matter
of fact, the evidence was pretty slim.
Their work was quick and effective.
There were Casey and Yankee Sullivan.
They were q perfect terror. Law was of
about as much consequence as an Egyp-
tian mummy. Things became better
after the committee had done some hang
ing. When they told q man TO leave the
city within twenty-four hours, he asked
no questions, but skipped out lively. 1t
was really q peaceful time after that. We
felt safer on the streets and in the mines,
with our pockets full of gold, than we
would to-day. Talk about respect of the
law. The law of the v. C. was regarded
with more respect than the law Of Moses
One day a miner came to town with
1000 worth of gold-dust. He had 1t in
an OLD coat Was he afraid of being
robbed? Not he. Going into restau-
rant to get his dinner, he simply threw
the coat, with the dust, on the sidewalk.
No one dared to touch it. IF any one had
interfered with it, a rope would have
been around his neck inside of twenty
four hours How we work now for few
cents or dollars Money was plenty
then, and the best goods in the world
came to our market Merchants in New
York and in the other Eastern cities sent
the highest-priced goods they had, and
they always sold them. Those were flush
times How often / have seen the bar
tender take q pinch of gold dust for q
drink or cigar. ALI he could hold between
the index finger and thumb was consid-
cred enough for a good drink of whisky.
You can use nickel now; but, bless you,
I've seen the time when anything from
hens egg to plug of tobacco could not
be had for less than a dollar. Do you
know the property ON which the Lick
House stands? Fine property that;
worth heap of money now; but / saw
the day when it went for q barrel of
whisky."-Cor. Chicago Journal

the telegraph has brought the account
of a great Socialist meeting Sunday

A POLITICAL NEW YEA RS
BENSON.

There is all item that comes over
the wires this morning told III very
n.atter-oifact shape in tho Assoc-
ated Press dispatch s-that sounds
too quantity beautiful to be any thing
else than kind of New Years ben
ison-a sort OF New Years greeting
to the coantry at as an Rs,ur-
aDce that the virtue of political hon
esty ia not an unknown quantity IN
this great and gIarious nation. AS
tho story goes one Mr.. Buikley WAS
the rep ubican nominee for Governor
eft Conn ecticut. when the votes were
counted il was found that the demo-
crsts had polled just few more
votes for their gubernatorial csudi-
date than had been cast for Bulkley.
But the republican managers In Con-
necllcnt vowed that they knew q
trick or too AS cnte as even the pro
duct of the traditional wooden nut
mOgs or hickory hams. They found
that in New Haven and one or tive
other towns the democrats had used
n peculiar kind of ballots known
there as "black ballots" We have
no details about these ballots-prob.
ably they were distinctively peculiar,
though not mayhap more 40 than the
quser-backed ballots that true repub-
licans used 20 vote in Texas elections,
in the reconstruction era. Here was
hook on which to hang doubts, and
the alert republican returning boards
quietly counted out these "black
ballots' and they reversed the demo-
cratic majority. But now comes Mr..
Buckley, and on New Years day he
stands up and aYows that for one. he
has "sworn on from this species OF
/ political Jugglery; that he does not
want nor will he accept position
which the electors, black or white
ballots, evidently did not intend bo
should hold and he therefore accepts
his defeat. We presume all this story
is true II isn't the Associated Press
or sOmobody has canarded ma
all, and a very laudsbe New
Years gift is lost to she country.
For, to be candid, in these DAYS of
political unscrupulousness, partizan
e1pedients and party zeal such a
course is not without it's merits. The
Connecticut mau could have held the
fort, with legal technicalitics as embra.
sures, ramparts and bAstions, but he
prefers TO be morally right. lie de-
serves happy New Year and per
haps an election sometime in the
