One of Ludwig's Whims.

Among the follics not generally
known committed by the Gcmented
King of Bavaria, was the erection of a
circus on the first floor of the royal
palace of Munich. The ceiling was
made to initiate the skies at night time,
with the moon and stars, lit up from
behind by electric lights. On the walls
were series of colored frescoes re-
presenting various country scenes, in
Guiding an Italian capanna, French
auberge, and Swiss chalet. The mon
arch and his guests, twenty in number,
first went to the theatre. They then
returned to the palace and supped.
About two in the morning the king Or
dered his favorite charger, and, mount
ing, invited his friends to follow him.
Their horses were brought up, and, as
soon as they were all in the saddle, his
majesty rode off into the circus. The
royal party galloped round the ring
several times. The king stopped, de-
scended, and tapped at the door of the
capanna. Suddenly the door opened as
if by magic, and a crowd of persons
emerged from it. They We're dressed in
the different country costumes of Italy,
and bore baskets of fruit, cake and
wine, of which the guests partook.
During the repast an invisible choir
sang Italian airs. accompanied by a
brass band. His majesty again mounted
his charger, and followed by his friends,
rode round the circus once more. He
now knocked at the auberge, and
French peasants came out with more
wine and eatablcs, which the poor
guests, already surfeited, were bound
to consume rather than offend their
eccentric host. The magicians here
executed favorite French songs. The
same performance was gone through at
the chalet, and then the king, at half
past four in the morning, abruptly
withdrew, leaving his companions more
dead than alive.

The ingenious but incredulous and OBJ
stinate people, the Chinese. cannot be
induced to believe that we make car
wheels and other things requiring the
tenacity and durability of steel out of
paper. But they ask you to believe that
they nave made cannon out of silk and
that it is efficient artillery, of which
single camel can carry dozen batteries.
Thackeray's spinster, who thought there
were few things which could not be done
with cut lowers. would hardly have
deemed them suitable projectiles.

He Could Run the Whole Train.

On a Bay City train coming into De
troit was great big bulk of fellow,
with voice deep enough to shake the
foundation of house and disposition
to eat somebody up. He got into
trouble with three or four men in the
smoking car, all of whom left it to avoid
trouble. This encouraged the man in
the belief that he could run the whole
train, and he was observing that he had
come down from the lumber camps to
sniff the fresh air and start a grave
yard or two when brakeman, who had
caught on quietly, took a seat beside
him.

The brakeman acknowledged that he

"Say. how would you like to step out

The brakeman rather liked the idea.

because you might get hurt p
He had scarcely spoken when the big
fist rubbed itself against his nasal
organ, but something more than words
followed. In about second he had the
big man by the throat and damned into
a corner, and there he held him until
the man who wanted to go into the
graveyard business turned the color of
a horse-plum, exhibited all the tongue
he had and made signals that he would
even sell his shirt to bring about an
amicable settlement of affairs.

"Y-yes."
With that he was released and for a

The Annropriations.

There was meeting of the city government
committee ON appropriations in the Mayors room
at the city building yesterday. Col c. B. Merrill,
in behalf of the school board, asked for an in
crease over last year of $4,000 in the appro-
priation, SIG 900 to be expended for the erection
of new school building in the western part OF the
city. Alderman Sawyer, chairman of the commit
tee ON Streets sidewalks and bridges, asked for an
increase of $4,000 in the appropriation for the
work of the committee, on account of the expense
caused by the ice storm, the heavy rain storms OF
the past year, and the grading of A, and
Streets The committee also include in their esti-
mate the cost of steam roller for matchmaking
the streets. Ex-Mayor Walker and Mr.. Smith, for
the commissioners on cemeteries and public
grounds, asked for an increase of from $4,000 to
$4,000. The total amount asked for in excess OF
last years appropriation is 100000
Mayor Chapman said it would be impossible to
grant so large an amount in excess of the last ap
preparation. He said that it is the settled policy
of the city not to increase the rate of taxation
when it can be consistently avoided.
