A DIPLOMATS DE1UsIoNs.

Brandy at the Bottom of Count Persianis
Insanity.
From Modern Society.
''Great scandal has been caused in the dplo-
matte world by plenipotentiary of one of the
great European powers being obliged to be shut
up in me 1laisOn de Sdnte in Paris to be cured
of that terrible malady, 'delirium tremens
This diplomat, Count Persani of noble Italian
origin, and Russian Minister at the Servian
Court, had rapidly been promoted in his diplo-
matte career, and would, no doubt, have
reached the highest rank in the same if unfor-
tunately he had not had the misfortune to
drink like fish. When he was at Belgrade he
was never to be seen with clear head, and one
day one of the Servian regents, Touchanovtch,
went to see him and found him crying like a
child. My grandmother is dead said he, sob
bing. The regent began Offering consolation.
No exclaimed the diplomat. Il do not cry
for her; cry because my grandmother died be-
fore l was born and | never knew her.
''Another day he was called suddenly into
the presence of Queen Natalie, who had some
| thing to communicate to him of the greatest
importance. 1t was impossible for the Minister
to avoid this visit and he was obliged to go to
Her Majesty in a deplorable state. He did his
best to keep quiet for few seconds, listened
gravely to the accusations against the King,
which had such somnferous effect on the
diplomat that he actually fell asleep, and,
worse, dropped down suddenly full length at
the feet of the Queen. Natalie at once com
menced screaming, the servants in the ante
room ran in frightened, and to their astonish-
ment found the man full length ON the ground
in position very undgniied for person of
importance. For the last few months his health
has been greatly affected. He has been subject
to strange hallucinatons, wishing to fight the
Austrian army with his brandy bottle. The
doctors tried in vain to separate him from this
terrible enemy, but the Count would listen to
nothing, asserting that it was only cognac
which gave him any ideas"

1t Was John the Cane-Dropper.


From the ST. Louis Republic.
The rector of fashionable Episcopal church
has very attractive daughter, who is receiving
devoted attentions from young gentleman
whose first name is John, and who is promi-
nently identified with the Baptist denomination,
and, in fact, is known to all his friends as one
of the most enthusiastic Baptists in the city.
Last Sunday night he gave up the pleasure of
attending the services at his own church for the
greater pleasure of the society of the clergy
mans daughter and accompanied her to church.
They were late, and entered the church just as
the young lady's father was announcing the text
of his sermon. The clergyman's family pew is
very near the front of the church The couple
had gotten about half way up the middle aisle
when the young man unfortunately dropped his
cane, which struck one of the pews and attracted
as the young man was making an effort TO re-
coverhis cane the young lady father announced
his text, which was, sit is John the Baptist; he
has risen from the dead'' A general litter
spread overthe congregation, and the gentleman
was so badly ratified that as he entered the pew
he created another noise by tripping on the
kneeing stool and almost falling, just as the
clergyman repeating for the second time
the text, at is John the Baptist; he has risen
from the dead" The congregation could con-
troll their feelings no longer, and several of them
fairly laughed out aloud. The clergyman
stopped to see what caused the unusual merri-
ment. He took in the situation at a glance and
he too laughed, and it was several minutes be-
fore the congregation became sufficiently rever-
ential in their behavior for him to proceed with

The Deadly Corset.
From the Argonaut.

From the ArgOnaut
Hitherto we have been told that the vices in
troduced by white men are depopulating the
South Sea Islands, but now it appears that
white women are responsible for the rapid de-
population of New Zealand. When female
missionaries went among the Maoris they in
sisted that the Maori women should wear cloth
ing The latter could not be induced to over
come their prejudice against skirts, but, dis
covering that the missionary women wore cor
sets, they decided that the latter was garment
not wholly devoid of merit. The result is that
every Maori woman now goes about her daily
work neatly clad in a corset laced as tightly as
the united efforts of half dozen stalwart war
riors can lace it. Being unaccustomed to tight
lacing, the women are dying off with great
rapidity, and the repentant female missionaries
now regret that they ever asked their dusky
sisters to consider the question of clothing.

ArtihcialIy Scented Flowers.
From the N. Y. Star.

From the n. Z. Star.
The one objection to the chrysanthemum is
the rather unpleasant odor that belongs to the
flower under normal conditions. Ingenious
foriculturists, however have obViated this to
considerable extent by chemical treatment of
the growing plant. Instances are common
nowadays in which chrysanthemums, as well as
other flowers, are perfumed artiicially by be-
ing immersed in some fragrant extract But,
really if person has an especial liking for
some particular odor, as heliotrope or lily Of
the valley, why should he not have his chrys-
anthemums, sunhowers, or hollyhocks breathe
forth these odors 1t is true that the odor of
the heliotrope coming from the sunfower might
seem a trihe odd to the horticultural stranger,
but we have effects in our garments and in our
architecture no less absurd.

THE HELPFUL CRAB.

How They Come to One Another's Aid
When in Trouble.
From the Nineteenth Century.
Some land crabs of the West Indies and North
America combine in large swarms in order to
travel to the sea and to deposit their spawn, and
each such migration implies concert, co6pera-
ton, and mutual support As to the big mo-
lucca crab, (LdnluluS,) was struck lin 1882 at
the Brighton Aquarium) with the extent of mu-
tual assistance which these clumsy animals are
capable of bestowing upon a comrade in case of
need. One of them had fallen upon its back in
a corner of the tank and its heavy, saucepan
like carapace prevented it from returning to its
natural position, the more so as there was in the
corner an iron bar which rendered the task stiH
more difficult. Its comrades came to the rescue
and for one hours time | watched how they en-
deavored to help their fellow-prisoner. They
came two at once, pushed their friend from be-
meath, and after strenuous efforts succeeded in
lifting it upright but then the iron bar would
prevent them from achieving the work of res
cue, and the crab would again heavily fall upon
its back. After many attempts one of the help

force the same pushing and lifting of their help

more than two hours, and when ON leaving we
again came to cast glance upon the tank the
work of rescue still continued. Since saw that

by Dr. Erasmus Darwin, namely, that ''the com

Even that old standard, Gas stock, begins to

past week marked considerable decline from
those noted month or so ago. During the
summer the price paid reached $50, and more
recently sales are quoted at S4S, and it was
thought that a lower range would hardly be
reached. But the downward tendency of the
whole list was calculated to carry Gas along

ate committee on public buildings and
grounds has taken action on the bills for
public buildings introduced by Senators
Squire and Allen OF Washington. The
committee recognized that the chief cities
of that state were entitled 10 buildings,
but did not believe it was policy TO make
an appropriation for the sums called for,
but the best method was TO provide sites
first and trust 70 the future for money and
buildings.
The committee decided TO report in
favor of 500 600 each for site for public
Falls, and 5o,o00 for site at WalIa
Waila.
Representative Wilson is OF the opinion
that this viii not be satisfactory, for the
reason that IL may prevent getting what is
desirable public buidings-at some of the
cities.
