Diplomatis Dowucd by u Kitten.
We remember to have seen distin-
guished diplomatist. trained to hold his
own in tho courts of kings. and never at
q loss to get oet Of an embarrassing posi-.
ton or to meet an act Ct rudeness by a
rapier thrust OF wit, utterly put down
by o small black kitten. The diplornatist
had been playing with the kitten, but he
went too FAR. Instead Of making fun for
the kitten he made fun OF her, and this
she was quick To sce and to resent. De-
termined TO mark her sense of. his con.
duct, she at once put stop TO the game
and calmly but resolutely placed her
small person in froat of the man Of cere-
mony, wrapped her tail neatly round
her toes, and gazed mt him with an ..ir Of
plying contempt.
1t was an electric moment, and tia rc5i
Of the company watched with palpitat-
ing eagerness the struggle for ascend.
ency. II proved, however, an unequal
contest After few moments of regard
which told more of sorrow than Of anger,
the kitten deliberately began to wash her
little black face, stopping every now and
then, paw in hair, to give n look of faint
surprise, mingled with disgust, ut her
antagonist. The situation speedily be
came ridiculous, but not for the kitten,
and in a very short time the diplomatist
had evidently admitted himself beaten.
The kitten then rose, walked to the
window and placidly gazed ont Mt the
landscape, every curve in her back show.

characterized the incident that had just

A Story Of the Paris Commune.

The commune was also sublime. A
prisoner, n man, had been taken with
arms in his hands. imprisoned, and con-
demned to death. His wife made heroic
efforts to save him, and succeeded IN
securing the sympathy OF a man who
had influence in these times. Her hus-
band was saved from capitalpunishment
and was condemned to transportation.
Left alone and abandoned, without
resources, she had formed an intimacy
with the man who had saved her hus-
band. After living for years with this
lover, to whom che was deeply attached,
she besought him to apply for n pardon
for her husband.
Although he felt he was destroying
her happiness and his own, he did 30.
The husband returned full of love for the
wife who had saved hi n from execution
and procured his liberation. On the
way home, however. he learned the
truth. He changed his name, disap-
peared, and lived In hiding for many
years. Then, when divorce became pos
sible In France, he wrote to his wife:
apply for divorce against me; I viii
do all can to secure one for you. Marry
him and be happy" Sublime. Mr.. De
Blowitz, in Harper's.-

''On one farm In Mexico I saw
enough Of the luxuries of Life produced
to make any man happy" remarked
Mr.. c. 8. Wood, Of IA Paso, Tex.
The farm was not as large as some
farms 60 in Mexico, bat IL was, to use
q slang phrase, sumner I don't
think the mind Of man could imagine
a vegetable product that could not Do
produced on that farm. At any rate
l saw growing there coffee, sugar, rice,
potatoes, rye, wheat. oats, corn, Der.
ries. cabbage, tomatoes, apples, banan-
N. cocoa figs, cochineal and q dozen
other products.
ION the upper end OF this farm you
could find gold, silver, sapphires, onyx
and other precious stones. Some Of
these articles were not produced In
quantities large enough to pay to mar
ket them, but they were all found
there and all at the service of the OWL
er of the land. Oh, suppose the farm
contained 10000 or 10000 acres of
land. but 1t extended through all tenn
peratures and elevations" - Kansas

Then they all rose up, and, standing

At certain seminary for young Ia

At all the state dinners and recep-
tons given at the executive mansion a
sage palm Is displayed that once be-
longed to George Washington, and
decorated his entertainments at Mount
Vernon But there the old interest Of
the White House stops The visitor IL
shown this room and that, and places
where some christening, marriage or
death gave interest to spots here and
there, and he Is shown some Indifferent
portraits. But the house bears every
where the features OF brand newness
and not Of famous oldness.
The reason for this Is that the White
House Is the victim Of a vulgar desire
to have everything new. The same
vulgar ruthlessness pervades the Capt.
tol and every department building in
Washington. In place of committing
a new president to an ancient house
filed with objects of historic interest, 1t
has been the custom to clear out every
thing that belonged to tho past, and as
Ear as possible to set mp the new execu-
tive family as though they were going
to housekeeping for the first time
