English Girls Abroad.

[TOm Tue SATURDAY RENEW.
American girls are much more popular abroad
than ours, and for an obvious reason. They are
more continental In their tastes They live for
society, dress, Irritation. Our young women,
IKE their fathers and brothers, are profoundly
denb0rg visited heaven, he found that the Eng
lish there kept very much to themselves. So
do our c0untrywomen abroad. They have
plenty of interests apart from society," They
bOtaniZe, they work, they play lawn-tennis as
II they meant winning sets, not hearts. They
carry hammers, they explOrse fossils, they dig
up bits OF primitive man. they collect sea-
beasts, they even study the peasants
and their patois. They regard foreign
young men as beings Of another
species, no more manageable than
monkeys. For all these reasons they do not
dress to please foreign young men. They wear
big-nailed boots. hideous sunshades, and when
very Alpine and pedestrian, seem chiefly to r0De
themselves in seedy old listers Sealskins and
water-proOfs limit their ideas Of costume. They
wear out their old things. Occasionally they
introduce esthetic dresses to Q foreign popula-
ton which never heard of Mr.. Wilde It is
amusing to observe the hOrrOr-stricken curiosity
of foreign town when the first peac0ck-blue
pair of pufied sleeves is pr0menaded through
the street. All these signs of the cold and in
sular Indifference of the British fair make her
unpopular on the continent. She is not think
She is taking her pleasure manfully, after the
manner of her race. Thus, English girls seldom
marry foreigners: and, IL marriage be ssadvan-
tageous," then for English girls Mr.. Flowers
saying holds true. Marriages of mixed races
and opposed religions seldom come to very con-
spicnOus good. 1t is better to be s'endoga-
moua" within the nationally.

A Miners Disagreeable Alternative.
From the New York Tribune
While working at his mine near Tres Alamos,
few days ago, John Lyons. OF Tombstone,
Arizona, suddenly found himself In most un-
expected and unpleasant situation He had put
IN blast. lighted the fuse, and just reached the
top OF the shaft when te beheld four mounted
Apaches rapidly approaching. Mr.. Lyons hesi-
tated an instant, and then dropped behind q
neap OF rocks at the mouth of the shaft. At
tnat moment the blast exploded and volley of
stones ana debris flew into the air with thun-
dering report. The Indians, who had made sure
oI tneir victim, were SO amazed and terrified at
a,,S nIacul0us interference, that they wheeled
a M sahoped away, screaming like fentis, and
Mr. lyons. who had not been struck by q single

The Old Mill.
Och Maggie, acushla,
You've made me half crazy,
Wild your 'witchin' blue eyes
And your face like daisy.
Just the blue Of the skies
OF June g in your eyes,
And your heart-breakin' mouth
Is rose from the south.
Shure the bee, If he sees YOU
What Pm sayin' Is true
VIII take toll Of your lips:
TITS such honey he sips
And I'm thinkin' it's taste
He'll be showin'-the haste
Faith wish he'd stale just bit of the swate.
And give poor hungerln' fellow trate.
Do you mOind the old MILL
Where you sat on the sill;
While the sitting white meal
Crowned your hair like q veil.
And your chakes kept colorin' and blushin'
up so,
Till they looked like two roses Just peepin, thro,
snow.
So fOind that the bliss of.snatchin' a kiss.
Was more than mortal loik me could resist
Och! that picture so sweet shure it never can
fade,
Twill tighten me steps as they 20 down LIES

And whin me old feet totter slow on the hill
The last picture before me will be the old mill.

A Tragic Game of Poker.

I remember one time when we were on our way to New Orleans on Mississippi river steamboat. Bill and I set up a game in the main saloon. The play used to be kept up pretty much all day, and sometimes we would win or lose several thousand dollars Tn day. The game was at it's briskest in the evening, after dinner, when most of the boys were more or less full of wine, and were some- times very heavy. We'll, one night we were just going to sit down to the table, the lamps vera lighted md two new decks. of cards were broken, when little fellow, with big moustaehe, who said he was a Kentuckian, asked to join the game, as he wanted to learn it. He showed big roll of money, and we assented thinking we had caught regular sucker. We hadn't been playing half an hour when Bill, on the strangers deal, got four kings pat, and started of by raising the pot $1OO, the ante being $50. The pool mounted up to over $5, 900 before the draw, and, much to his surprise, Bill simply called the first bet of $500, and the hands were then shown. The stranger had scarce time to lay down four aces on the table when Bill raised one of his coat tails in his hand, and discharged the revolver through the pocket The stranger threw up his hands, half rose from his chair, and, with a moan, fell for ward on the table, knocking over the lamp, and then tumbled back on the floor stone dead. Of course the excitement was tremen- dous revo1vers were drawn, and general panic ensued. Bill never lost his nerve for 8 second Says he: "Gentlemen, just let me explain this little matter. That man held four aces, and here is the one I discarded from my own hand. I never saw deck of cards with two aces of spades, and I'll swear that the deck was all right when I counted it at the beginning of the game, and so will my friend here (meaning me) And if you want any more evidence, look here :" and with that he yanked of the Kentuckian's false moustache, and who should the stranger be but Chipper Jim, noted skin and despera- do. We made up a committee to chuck the body overboard One of the queerest parts of the whole business was when we came to count the stamps; the half of it was counter felt money.

 continual demands for mortgage loans the Credit Foncier has now in preparation

 preceded the crisis at the commencement of the year just closed.
 Probably most people look upon the inhab- itants of Madagascar as uncivilized heathen
 but this view is all very wrong, according to one of those inhabitants who recently lectur- ed in London. He found Tananarivo, the capital, to be really splendid city, with magnificent public buildings. The house he lodged at was as good as any in London, and there was Roman Catholic church which would not disgrace Paris The Prime Min ister, who was curiously enough husband of the Queen and almost the most intelligent, astute and clever man he had ever met, oc- cupied a splendid official residence The Premier knew precisely how far he could ad- vance in the path of civilization. and where to stop. No outside people could so well control the Malagasy as the present Prime Minister. During the Queens reign of ten years he had publicly abolished idol worship and embraced Christianity The nobles of the land as well as the mass of the population were now Christians. The Premier was an educational reformer and had established numerous schools. He had abolished ''trial by poison," a superstitious rite which used to decimate the country. It was intended to make the Queen de factO as well as de .jatre the mon- arch of the island, and it was a great pity that any disturbance should come to the ex- isting state of things. Among other benefi- cent changes which the Prime Minister had wrought was the abolition of the introduc- tion of slaves from Africa. He did this with one stroke of the pen, and in doing it he did away with what might be called the ''mate- rial wealth" of Madagascar. A man had be- fore been considered richer or poorer in pro- portion to the number of slaves he owned natural anxiety prevailed that country l which had so far advanced in civilization 1 Ihould not go back
