MISUNDERSTANDING has its diversions
as well as its terrors and excitements.
Monsieur Tissot describes an amusing
experience III Switzerland, while de-
scending the Piz Vanguard which,
twenty years ago, was only known to
shepherds aud chamois-hunters. Now,
however, its fame is universal in the
world of travellers.
The descent was accomplished in an
hour. 1t was pleasure party, fete.
/ found myself with q gay party of
Austrian tourists, with whom speedily
became acquainted.
Arriving at the top OF great decliv-
ity of frozen snow, the guide stopped,
and asked, addressing himself to the
ladies:
Should You like to amuse yourselves
little?"
Eve should not be Viennese if we
refused. Yes, let us amuse ourselves.
The snow Is 80 delightful"
Impatient and curious, they quickly
grouped themselves about the guide.
Well, we will descend this beautiful
snowy slope in o few minutes, without
the smallest danger. Tt is only neces-
sary that the ladies should have cour-
age. This is how we proceed. Each
gentleman must seat himself, and take
lady behind him, holding her firmly
by the ankles. At my signal, you must
all let yourselves slide down. It is not
difficult, and we shall gain half an
hour"
This manner of descending, much
used in the Alps, was new to the ladies,
and seemed to them both droll and
original. Each of us seated ourselves
on an oTercoatt, folded in four, and the
ladies on their shawls, which were
drawn over their knees. At the word
of command, we set off, dragging our
companions, laughing, and utterine
little shrieks. Some awkward couples
came to grief, but not seriously, and
the adventure terminated without
further incident.
At the foot of the slope, the travellers,
a little giddy from the headlong journey,
rose, powdered with snow. and shook
themselves like water-dogs which had
just crossed river.

Patient Little Algerian Wives.

The same general rule that the wife
shall wait upon her husband seems as
prevalent here as in Algiers. At the
station we saw a beautiful young wife.
of whose pretty features I caught a
brief glimpse, as she was arranging her
head drapery. She had come to see
her husband off by the train, and not
only carried his hand-luggage to the
station for him, but stood in line at the
ticket Office while he lounged about and
smoked with his friends. After weary
wait, she carried his packages again to
the train. put them in the car for him,
and then took his preferred hand, and
bending low over it kissed it reverently.
And this was delicate choking girl,
about twenty yeas Of age, dressed in
garments of the firest texture, her
neck, arms. and ankles covered with
Jewels, while her lord and master was q
stalwart young man not more than 80
years old. Poor sisters Of Blidah -

Once more the telephone trick has
been tried--with remarkable success
this time, says the Paris correspondent
of the London Tetegraph-on the
highly respectable restaurateur who
had obtained notoriety or perhaps re-
nown of recent months by catering for
the distinguished prisoners who have
been temporarily incarcerated in the
gloomy conciergerie. Lately the
caterer supplied with food the Marquis
de Mores, who was arrested in connec-
ton with the May-day demonstrations,
and it was in the name of this very
nobleman, who is now out on bail, that
the new telephone trick was perpe-
trated.
The restaurateuf, or one of his as
sistants, was called to the telephone
Yesterday afternoon and directed to
prepare copious repast for. the Mar
quis de Mores and four other gentle
men who were to accompany him.
This order was apparently all right, as
the Marquis had dined the day before
at the restaurant after he had left the
office of the Judge dInstruction, at
whose disposal he holds himself while
out on bail. Shortly after the receipt
of the order the telephone bell rang
again, and the restaurateur was told
that box of special Havanas would
be sent to him for the Marquis, and
would be good enough to pay the mes
senger for the cigars. The reply was
"Yes," whereupon the messenger soon
appeared, carrying the box of cigars all
right as to its exterior, and received
fifty francs for the same.
In the meantime the dinners were
prepared and the shades of evening
were falling very fast indeed, but
neither the Marquis de Mores nor any
of his friends showed their faces.
CHASTITY suspicion then foated through
the mind of the restaurateur, and 8
verdant pallor suffused his countenance
when he discovered the extent to which
he had been sold" by some keen-witted
knight of industry. The brown box,
confidently supposed to contain q con-
signment of choice Havanas, was the
sepulchre of a small-sized brick,
which was carefully enveloped in the
remnants of iady's nocturnal gown.

Tender.

I was in group of newspaper men
Just after had read of q reception
which had been rendered" TO q we'll
known citizen. I wanted to express an
opinion upon the barbarous misuse of
the word quoted, and asked, to intro
duce the subject, what does tender
mean?" I received several answers,
and here they are:
!. A tender is small vessel which
takes provisions toa larger vessel out
side of q pier" came from the man who
had crossed the ocean.
"A tender to sail boat is a dingey
which follows on behind" is what the
member of the boat club said.
A tender isn't q boarding house

whose lover was taken to a war vessel

remark The case which made Tom

hopefully, they'll surely discharge us
when they discover we're not sick.
But, Pawner,,n replied Killian. sif
We're in there once we'll have contracted
that disease
Further conversation was cut short
by the entrance of Madam Lasca, who
said:
do you gentlemen now realize the
consequences of your tomfoolery? MY
residence will be summed after your
departure" adding: @Do you know
what will become Of your"
"Alas,syes!' said RULER.
A ring at the bell was now heard and
Madam Lasca fastened to open the
door.
@They come,' said RULER; shut I'll
never be taken alive. I prefer to die
by violence than of smallpox"
So saying, he grasped rapier and
posted himself in corner of the room.
Selling a sword Killain followed his
example, just as the door opened and
two policemen entered
The officers observing the determined
men, said:
in the name of the law no resist
ance. Drop your weapons and follow
us"
!" No, we'll not go, for we're not sick,
both replied, firmly.
Then we will use force"
sYou may try it! We prefer to die
here rather than to accompany you to
the smallpox hospital, where hor-
rible death awaits us. No, sir, we will
not gola
"But, gentlemen, the Debtor Prison Is
quite comfortable place to reside in.
It's nonsense to talk of death.
A person condemned to prison for
life could not have felt happier at
suddenly receiving Communication of
his sentence to only ten days, as did
those two students, when they heard
the words: @Debtor Prison"
I'VE bow our knees before the law
and will accompany you" said RULER,
bowling to the policeman.
Almost instantaneously with the words
two men entered, one of whom said:
Are the sick men able to descend
the stairs without support, Mrs.
Lasca?"
"There are no sick persons here,
replied Madam, folding her arms and
laughing.
The two policemen were utterly as
tonished; but, finally, one of them
said:
"There must be mistake some
where. The two gentlemen are in ex-
cellent health and there is nobody sick
in this house to our knowledge"
Perhaps somebody is sick in the
next house." said one of the hospital
officials, adding, come, let us depart"
And we'll depart, too" said Killian
to the policemen, aiming to escape the
hospital.
All descended to the street, and very
soon were the two students put in the
Debtor Prison.
Very seldom have prisoners greeted
their cells as did those two men, for
they felt sure that their kind parents
would not permit their long detention
in fact, in few days they were released,
and the press announced:
