The Story of "a Bracelet.

"Did you lose this? inquired 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. 1t was during
the Chautauquan assembly at Pacific
Grove, in 1887, that a party was made
up of those who took part in the lectures
to enjoy the ride, which is the great
feature of visit to the Ancient City by
the Sea. To come to Monterey without
making the trip would be on par with
a person going To Saratoga and not
drinking at the mineral springs, or
spending a vacation at Coney Island
without enjoying a surf bath. In re-
spouse 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 it was presented
to her by admirers during her en-
gagement at the Haymarket theatre,
London. An inquiry as TO whether any
thing had been lost brought negative
reply, but the gentleman, after giving
the child some slight reward, carefully
consigned the bracelet to his pocket, re-
serving 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

How IL Was Named.

Have you ever heard why the little
burg of Upper Alton, Ills, has the nick
name of Pie Town? 1t took that queer
name in very peculiar way. Along in
the summer of 1864 humber of society
people from st. Louie were invited by
some Upper Alton people to go there
and spend a day in social sports. The
invitation was not without a reminder
to the guests to bring up supply of
things for the inner man. When the
time for luncheon came. it developed the
fact that every person had brought a
goodly number of pies. not n single per-
son having loaf of bread. The party
made the best of the impromptu dinner
without bread At the close of the pie
feast one of the number suggested Pie
Town as an appropriate nickname for
Upper Alton. and the little village has
carried it ever since. st. Louis Globe

Keeping Their Records.

Paris has hitherto been regarded as the
paradise of faux menageS, and quite
number of foreigners of distinction have
been until now accustomed TO allow
themselves n latitude of conduct which
would not have been olerated anywhere
else. No less than half dozen well
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 unlindly
describes as IA state of sin OF course,
they do not dare go near the embassies,
but the ladies In question know and visit
each other la 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 of the French govern
ment, proclaiming that all foreign resi-
dents shall register their names, domi-
Giles, and other indiscreet particulars at
the prefecture de police before the close
of the year. Unfortunately, these reg
listers are open TO public inspection, and
while it has hitherto been possible for
the relatives of the delinquent ladies TO

on the public registers of the French
police. Those agreeable salons in which
the chic, wit, and gauloiserie of the
Freuch grande dame were blended with
the beauty of face and figure of the
Englishwoman of birth and breeding
will therefore, have to be closed and
the presiding deities will be forced to
migrate to Brussels, or to some other
equally tolerant capital.-Town Topics.
