died in 1876, leaving a fortune of SO.
900 Lospis dor in Paris and 100000
thalers in the Venice mint. His heirs
for some unknown reason did not
draw the money from the depository
in Venice, SO at the end of the last
century Napoleon found it still UNI
touched and appropriated it to, the
use OF his army. For the last thirty
years the descendants OF ThierNhaye,
been trying to find q way of reeover-
ing the 100000 thalers with interest.
Recently they all mes in Cologne, and
resolved to send their lawyers to,
Paris to move tbs French govern
ment to pay over an indemnify. 1t,
was said that the French chambers.
had already considered their claims
and advised tho. governments to pay

The face of Dick father would have

At first he shook his head obviously,

more favorablv it struck him. Pres

"Of course it will work." said Dick
with confidence, and the next day

Dick had some difficulties to over

shattered the lower tree to atoms

sudden end. But he soon devised q

One Wayto Court Accidents.

I saw an odd sight recently. A
small row boat was floating doUn
the East river inst below He'll Gate,
and in it was a German family, con-
sisting of the head of the household,
his wife, his sister and four children,
ranging all the way from seventeen
to six. They all had on their bath
ing suits, and were jumping off the
boat and scrambling back again
with the greatest lee. It was a won
der to me that they were not all
drowned, for not one OF them could
swim over two hundred yards at
most, and the tide was running fully
five miles an hour, carrying them and
the boat along together, but they
sputtered and splashed around in the
water, and seemed to enjoy it iln-
mensely New York Star.
