Bucklin & Holton's meat market was
entered by some light-fngered per-

Thought It Was the Monkeys,

| A diamond necklace was possessed by
Nine. Geoffery de St. Hilaire, the wife of the
famous French naturalist. 1t was one of the
chiefest of her ''contentments," as Hindoo
women aptly term their jewels One day
madame missed her necklace. There was
terrible turmoil in the house, and all the
servants down to the foolish. fat soullion,
were suspected, but in turn proved their
innocence At last 1t was remembered
that NJ de St. Hilaire had pet monkey,
and on Il search being made in the 'glory
hole" of the quadrumane the precious bau-
BILE was discovered hidden away with
white satin shoe, several cigar ends, pen
Gil case and deeomposed apple.
The renowned naturalist camly observed
that he had frequently seen the monkey
playing with the necklace "Why did you
not take it from him?" Indignantly asked
his sponge, u thought it belonged to him."
replied NJ. de St. Hilaire. He evidently
thought there was nothing nonnatural in
an ape possessing a diamond necklace as
his personal property.-San Francisco Ar

Making Embroidery by Machine.

An embroidery machine that would in
crease the number of stitches, aEd with
less labor has been the effort of inventors
for nearly fifty years. Some fifteen years
ago IL machine, the ''Schffii,' was invented
and worked by steam. 1t produces, how
ever, only low class of goods of inferior
quality. The product of this machine is
usually known as "Schiffii goods" OF
'Schiffii embroideries. A little later other
and greatly improved steam machines for
fine embroidering were invented, but failed
to enter into general use, fattering as were
their prospects. For seventeen years the
firm of i4aurer Brothers, at Arbon, on
Lake Constance, have been striving to
solve the problem of rapid, perfect acting
embroidery machine that will increase the
steam production, lessen the labor and
even improve the quality of the goods. It
is believed that the desired object has been
at last obtained.-Cor. St. Louis Globe

Where Would He Get the Barre,se


Although the people in the northern part
of Georgia have the finest soil on earth for
raising vegetables, they stick year after
year to cotton and corn and import vege-
tables at heavy cost. The country is de-
veloping rapidly, and the manufacturing
towns springing up give an increasing
market for all kinds of stuff called ''gar-
den truck" but the farmers go placidly
along in the footsteps of their fathers, and
raise cotton and corn whether they make
money or not.
why don't you plant potatoes?" said a
recent arrival from the north to farmer
who was complaining about the small
profits Of cotton growing.
"Oh, can't raise no pertatoes," said the
man despondently.
"Why not?" persisted the northerner.
you have Lots of land just right for pota-
toes, and you can get one dollar a bushel
for them right here in town. Why, man
alive, you can get five dollars u barrel for
all you raise"
''No use talkin," said the farmer; ''can't
do it noways."
"Well, but why not?"
"Why, yo' see boss, where'd | get the
barrels?"-New York Herald.

The Surrender of the Commune.

Next day (May %, 1879 it was gen.
orally known that the "Versaillais," as
they were called had entered the capital.
Then opened the gloomiest page in the
history of France. On one side were
the vandals of the commune, doing their
best to burn Paris to the ground, muir
dering innocent hostages, unchaining all
the horrors of civil war; exhibiting all
the heroism, every act of ferocity and
cowardice, into which human nature when
unrestrained will rush. On the other
side were the troops, irritated by the
struggle, humiliated by the duty that
had fallen upon them, exasperated
by so many horrors. Torrents of fratri-
cidal blood deluged the pavement of the
great French city. While the struggle
was going on, there could be seen arriv-
ing at Versailles, escorted by the soldiers,
gangs of prisoners, the savage rabble
who had plundered and spread confagra-
tion, and who, in blind obedience to
their leaders, had committed unparalleled
acts of barbarism. They arrived on the
great Place d'Armes, under bright and
broiIing sun. The persplration ran from
their faces, blackened with gunpowder
and dust. Their clothes were in tatters,
smelling of smoke and petroleum. There
were women, with features distorted by
hatred and anger; precocious children,
casting stealthy look around them; and
old men, crushed by defeat, with patches
of clotted blood on their white hair and
boards, marking them out as apostles of
revolution. Some, who had been jolted
amidst the lumber heaped on the carts,
were taken out and put fiat on the
ground. They lay, stiff and motionless,
with their eyes wide open and staring,
as if, after long fit of madness, they
had lost all consciousness of an outer
world. The captives were separated into
groups, and sent to improvised prisons,
where an attempt was made to shelter
this army of disorder. They had added
shame to defeat, who had with fire and
sword ravaged Paris.-Harper.
