French AristocratS.

p. g. HduertOn IN tile atlantic.
Those who really belong to the French
noblesse are IN no danger of losing their
birthrigbt of aristOcratic consideration
for any degree OF poverty that does not
make a decent appearance impossible,
and that does not compel them TO engage
in some mOney-earning occupation. The
gentry and their descendants have no
prejudice against decent aristocratic
poverty, but they have the genuine old
aristocratIc prejudice against work. They
despise all wealth that Is not inherited,
and value only the results OF the labOrs OF
the dead. Even literature and the fine
arts become degrading as soon as they
are lucrative, a sentiment quite opposed
to the general modern opinion in France.
A French gentleman wanted 10 let me
country house, and said, with an air or
conscious superiority: lit would be quiet
and convenient for the prosecution OF
your--your industry" All the forms of
trade are despicaOle tor aristocrats, and
when they hear of family that has been
in trade they say. with an air of gentee!
ignorance about the nature OF the bust
ness: ''Ils ont vendu quelque chose"
Their manners toward shopkeepers are
often unpleasant, and exhibit degree OF
mOrgue that is peculiarly irritating to a
Ereuch tradesman. They seem TO think
that because they want something that is
the property OF the shopkeeper they are
his natural superiors and above the usual
French forms OF ciyility. Sometimes this
excessive morgue Is liable TO make mis-
takes. A very proud warehouses had
gone, with friend, to make an excursion

THE SAMOAN ISLANDS.
Ex-Consul Greenebaum Tells Why
The American Flag Was Hoisted.

From The San francisco Erdnliner,
The steamer Mariposa, which arrived
in this city on Saturday morning, had on
board several distinguished guests, anon .
whom were the Hon. George W. Merrill,
Consul General from the United States to
the Hawaiian Islands; George S. Bates.
of Delaware, Special Commissioner OF
the United States to Samoa, and b.
Greehebaum, ex.Consul General OF the
United States to Samoa.
Mr.. Greenebaum was seen last even
ing and stated that he had returned
from the Samoan Islands not in obedi.
ence to any command from Washington
but In accordance with an agreement to
the governments of America, Germany
and England, in effect that all Consuls
should be withdrawn from Samoa on az
count of the recent trouble in the islands,
the result of which was the raising of the
American flag in Apia.
The cause OF the trouble in Samoa"
said Mr.. Greenebaum, was that Ger
man man-of-war appeared in the hartor
OF Apia and the Admiral, instead OF pay
ing mis- respects to King Maliteoa, the
recognized sovereign of the islands. after
few hours stay steamed to the head
quarters of the rebel chief, Tennessee, l.
teen miles below Apia. The conduct of the
Admiral alarmed the King, and he came
to me and desired 10 hold consultation
on the subject. / called his attention to
the article in the treaty between the Sa-
moan government and the United States
which guaranteed tAe protection of the
latter government in case of disagree
ment with other powers. | told him that
he was in the same position as mer-
chant w hn had nn06 hnnE aOnOnpf hu Z
no cash, and who had preferred credi-
tor willing to help him to tide over his
temporary difficulties. | told him that il
he transferred his business to the United
States government he would be protected
until a settlement between the powers
could be effected. | further told him
that II he would accept my proposition
would guarantee that Germany would
| not gobble him up. He agreed to my
my proposition. and on May II
hoisted the American flag, after which |
notified the other Consuls Of my action in
the matter, of which they fully approved.
AS soon as | had hoisted the American
| flag the German Admiral concluded that
| things were becoming serious and he i'm
mediately lett. Since that time there has
not been any trouble in Samoa"
During Consul Greenebaum's absence
from the islands the governments of Ger.
many, England and the United States
agreed TO withdraw all the Consuls to the
| Samoan Islands. and commissioners were
appointed to visit the islands and inves-
| tigate as to the cause OF the trouble
George S. Bates, OF Delaware, was APP.
pointed by the United States government,
| Gov. Thurston, of the Fiji Islands, by the
English government, and Imperial Ger.
man Consul Travers was appointed on
behalf of Germany. The commissioners
visited the islands separately, and will

is THE BILL A COUNTERFEIT .?
Agent Drummond Seizcs MIR. Stew
arts Painting OF IA Bank Note.

From the Neto York WOrid.
Theodore stewart has had on exhibition
at his John street saloon for six months
past an oil painting Of Il five dollar bill.
1t rested on the cigar stand in an ex-
quisite guilt frame, on the lower rim Of
which, in raised guilt letters, was this
inscription: "a Queer Counterfeit" 1t
was painted on Mr.. Stewards order by
william M. Harnett, the well-known
artist, whose "After the Hunt" is daily
admired by thousands in the warren
street resort. "a Queer CounCerieit' has
deceived bankers and experts by its
fidelity TO the detail and by the accuracy
OF the signatures upon 1t. Many persons
believed that IL was a tiye-dolar note
pasted 10 the board, although by order OF
Mr.. Stewart the artist painted sections Of
1t at time, exhibiting the work III its
successive stages OF development.
Tuesday afternoon Special Agent Drum
mond, OF the Treasury Department, walls
ed INTO Mr.. stewards place. II have
come tor this picture" said Mr.. Drum
mond, pointing to the oil painting. Mr..
stewart at once came from his private
office, with his lawyer, Counsellor Dos
cher. Mr.. Drummond explained the law
to Mr.. stewart, aud said 1T was viola
ton of the law, under the revised stat
utes, 10 print, engrave. photograph or
make in any way fac-simile OF Federal
hank note. He also said it would be neces-
sary for him to send the painting TO WASH
ington for the OPINION OF the secretary of
the Treasury. Mr.. Stewart acquiosced,
the painting was cut from the frame,
and was forwarded to Washington the
same afternoon. At MIR. Doschers sug-
VestiOn q receipt was drawn up and sign
ed with the names of Agent Drummond
and w. Wickbam smith, Assistant
United states Attorney.
MIR. Stewart said later that be appraised
the value OF the picture at $1,000. He
was surprised at the proceedings, but
was willing to have the matter tested.
A decision is expected to-day. There are
four of these oil paintings IN existence,
one In philadelphia, one IN Brooklyn, and
Mr.. Stewart owns two.
