The Story of a Bracelet.

Did you lose this?' inquired a little girl of some strangers who were picnick- ing near Cypress Point, on the seventeen mile drive out of Monterey, as she held up pretty gold bracelet It was during the Chautauquan assembly at Pacific Grove, in 1887, that a party was made up of those who took part in the lectures feature Of a visit to the Ancient City by the Sea. To come to Monterey without making the trip would be'on par with person going to Saratoga and not drinking at the mineral springs, or spending a vacation at Coney Island without enjoying surf bath. In re- sponse to the child's question gentle man stepped forward and took the orna- ment, which he discovered bore the name of one of the young ladies stopping at Fl Carmelo, together with the further description that 1t was presented to her by admirers during her en- gagenent at the Haymarket theatre, London. An inquiry as to whether any thing had been lost brought a negative reply, but tho gentleman, after giving the child some slight reward, carefully consigned tho bracelet to his pocket, re- serving a pleasant surprise for the even- ing, and all were appraised of the fact that something would occur after supper which would make at least one heart beat for joy.
 The trip home was made without special incident. and at last the looked for time arrived when one of the litter ateurs present, who had been appointed to perform the duty, called on Miss Eleanor Calhoun, the talented young Californian, and returned her lost keep sake, which, it then became known, she dropped the year previous while lunch ing at the same spot, and there it had lain hidden in the sand to be turned up by an unknown child's foot during the owners next visit.-San Francisco Bull letin

Keeping Their Records.

Paris has hitherto been regarded as the paradise of faux manages, and quite a number of foreigners of distinction have been until now accustomed to allow themselves a latitude of conduct which would not have been olerated anywhere else. No less than half a dozen we'll known English noblemen, and an equal number of ladies of the highest rank, having been living there for several years past in what the church unlzindly describes as "a state of sin." Of course, they do not darc go near the embassies, but the ladies in question know and visit each other in the most braZen manner
 Moreover, as far as the men went, whom one met in their salons, they were the best and most amusing to be found any where, ranging from the Prince of Wales down to the most impertinent ''attache" :"
 All this has now been put an end to by the decree sof the French govern ment, proclaiming that all foreign resi- dents shall register their names, domi- ciles, and other indiscreet particulars at the prefecture de police before the close of tho year. Unfortunately, these reg while it has hitherto been possible for the relatives of the delinquent ladies to wink at their more or less prolonged escapades, it will no longer be practi- cable to pretend to ignore their miscon- duct once it figures in black and white on the public registers of the French police. Those agreeable salons in which the chic, wit, and gauloiserie of the French grande dame werc blended with the beauty of face and figure of the Englishwoman of birth and breeding will, therefore, have to be closed, and the presiding deitics will be forced to migrate to Brussels, or to some other equally tolerant capital.
