ASrccaOie MANNERS ana Success
From the London Truth
Lord Palmerston once said TO friend Of
mine, who, as young fellow, was patronized
by that statesman, Never forget that much
neglected road to success is agreeable manners.
The man or woman with agreeable manners
will make Roadway in the face of the worst
difficulties. Every one is against the disagree
able people, whose best chance lies in secluding
themselves as much as they can" Emperor
William might ponder with advantage on these
words of Pam. Not having secluded himself,
but gone to Vienna and Rome. the allies Of his
grandfather there would gladly slip from
their alliance with him. The old emperor
and the Emperor Frederick bore their great
positions with simplicity and sweetness. Will
liam III. hears with impotence all opinions that
do not march with his own. and is arrogant in
putting them down. He has made the emperor
franz Joseph bristle up. The Italians were
unfavorably impressed by him. From whom
did he take his bad manners? His father was
such a nice, good fellow, and SO knightly! The
old grandfather was courtesy itself The EN-
press Frederick is not insolent or naughty.
neither is Augusta, who attaches but small inn
portance to her imperial rank and whose ideal
of life is intellectual and ladylike Bohemianism.
My theory to explain the bad conduct of VIII
liam III is that he has too much Saxe-Coburg
blood in his veins. The queens manners, when
she is In good humor, are pleasant But when
she is not-well, don't venture to say how she
struck me on a public occasion on which saw
her in sullen mood. cannot conceive how
anyone could have ever liked the prince con-
sort, there was SO much ice in his demeanor.
The duke of Edinburgh and his uncle Ernest
are both surly. Old King Leopold inspired
repugnance to all but Saxe-Coburgs and Baron
Stockmar. The duchess of Kent was the best
Saxe-Coburg that ever lived, and the most
agreeable. she being free from affectation, and
throughout life good soul, though in some
respects q masterful woman.

Things a Baby Can Do.

From the Indianapolis News.
What baby can do is explained by give
Talents of Women" new work just pub
lished:
A baby can beat any alarm clock ever invent
ed waking family up in the morning.
It can make more genuine fuss over a simple
brass pin, than its mother would over q broken
back.
1t can fall down oftener and with less provo
cation than the most expert tumbler in the
circus ring.
Give it chance and II can smash more dishes
than the most industrious servant girl in the
country.
1t can choke itself black in the face with
greater ease than the most accomplished wretch
that was ever executed.
1t can keep family in a constant turmoil
from morning till night and night till morning
without once varying its tune.
1t can be relied upon to sleep peacefully all
day when its father is away at business. and
cry persistently at night when he is particu-
larly sleepy.
1t may be the naughtiest, dirtiest, ugliest
most fretful baby in all he'world, but you can
never make its mother believe it, and you had
better not try.
1t can be charming and model infant when
no one is around, but when visitors are present
it can exhibit more bad temper than both Of
its parents together.
1t can brighten up house better than all
the furniture ever made, make sweeter music
than the finest orchestra ever organized; fill a
larger place in its parents breasts than they
knew they had, and when it goes away it can
cause a greater vacancy and leave a greater
blank than all the rest of the world put to-
gether

fore this license was issued another couple ap-
peared and procured a license bearing the

monies. These suggestions were accepted and

Haussmann and His Boulevard.

n0088m8uu
Psris Dispatch to the London Daily Telegraph.
The resolution lately passed by the NUM-
cipal council to change the name Of the Boule-
ward Haussmann to that Of the Boulevard
Baudin" has caused as much indignation here
The change is not yet an accomplished fact, for
the councirs decision must be ratified by the
government before it can be carried into effect
That it should have received, however, the ap-
proval Of the majority of those who are sup
posed to preside, in q special manner, over the
interests Of Paris is perhaps the most startling
Of the many proofs which the council has given
of its political fanaticism Of late years. Baron
Haussmann served the cause Of the empire, it
is true, but much more did he serve that of
Paris. As project of the Seine he was the in
stigator and director of most of the great
works of public improvement which during the
last thirty years have SO changed the face of
Paris that those who only remember what the
city was in the reign of Louis Philippe would
hardly recognize it now unless they kept to the
old quarters which have been allowed to re-
main pretty much what they were then; but
the Paris that is known to the ordinary
visitor, and to which he owes his most
and beauty of this city, is precisely that part
which will always be associated with the name
Of Haussmann. whether or not the municipal
council be allowed to paint it over at the cor
ners OF one OF the boulevards planned by the
imperial project of the Seine The only peo-
pie who can consistently question the utility of
Baron Haussmann's work are enthusiasts for
the preservation of old buildings irrespective
Of public health and convenience. An exag-
gerated respect for antiquities cannot, how
ever, be laid to the charge of municipal coun-
cilors. They have no sentimental or artistic
veneration for narrow, crooked streets, gabled
roofs and overlapping stories. Logically, they
should honor Baron Haussmann a distinctly
modern man, who did much to obliterate the
traces Of the past by doing away with the tor
tuous, narrow streets and the old houses that
linked the present to the times when kings
were everything in France and municipal coun-
cilors nothing. Baron Haussmann's name has
only been given to a single boulevard This in
itself is small honor to a man who was instru-
mental in the construction of the Boulevard de
Sebastopol, the Boulevard de Strasbourg, and
the whole quarter OF the Arc de Triomphe,
only to mention a few of the great street inn
provements of modern Paris due to his clear
judgment and great energy.

DROPPED HIS REvoLvER.-Edward G. Woody,
young man who lives on the canal road, came
theater. When he started to leave after the
performances were over a loaded revolver
dropped from his pocket When he got out on
Pennsylvania avenue Officer Boardman arrested
him. He left $40 collateral for his appearance
This morning. when the case was tried in the
Police Court, Woody told the judge that he
only carried the weapon when he came to the
city at night, because the road leading to his
home was dangerous one and he needed
something for protection. The judge warned
him that if caught again with a revolver he
would be fined. This time his personal bonds
were taken.
