CAME BACK TO BE SHOT.
A Touching Story About a BOY of tn
French Commune,

A Touching Story About q Boy of the
French Commune.
The order had been issued to Paris In
1871 by the new republican authorities
that Communist Insurgents who were
taken with arms in their hands should BE-
put to death Immediately. The order
was being releutlessly executed. when,
In the garden of the Elysse Palace. a de-
tachmeut of republican troops Came upon
a small band of insurgents. Among
them was a boy Of fifteen years. SILL in
short trousers.
The band was conducted to a larger
party OF communists destined for execu-
ton. On the way inc nfteen-year-old
broke out from among his companions,
and placed himself in front of the colonel
who commanded the escort. Making the
military salute with a good deal Of grace,
he ga i'd:
"Mister, you're going to shoot me. l
supposed"
Certainly, my lad" said the colonel,
taken with arms in your hands, it's all
up with you. That is the order."
'All right" said the boy; .'but Sc e
here: / live in Miromesnil street. where
my mother is concierge in u house.
She'll wait for me If / eon't come home,
and she'll worry a great deal. I Just
want to go home and quiet her q bit, you
know; and then again, I've got my watch
here; I'd like to give 1t to my mother, so
she'll have as much as that, anyway.
Come, colonel, let me run home a little
while. l give my word OF honor I'll come
back to be shot"
The colonel was struck with astonish-
ment at the boys demand. IL also began
to amuse him a good deal.
"You give me your word Of honor, eh.
that you'll return in time to be exc
cuted?n
My word of honor, misterip
swell. vel" said the Colo mel, sthis
young scamp has wis as well as assur-
apce. A rather young rebel to shoot , tool
Well. his assurance has saved him. Go
home, boyl''
The youth bowed and scampar ed of.
"The last we shall see Of him." said the
Colonel.
Halt an hour passed by; the Colonel, who
was now Indoors in his headquarters, had
forgotten, in the press OF his terrible bus
mess. all about the boy whom he re-
garded as having been definitely set free
But all at once the door opened and the
boy communist popped In.
Here l am, misterr' he exclaimed. 'I
saw mamma, told her, gave her ths
watch, aud kissed her. Now Pm leady.u
Then the colonel did what perhaps none
but a rough soldier would have done. He
rose. came over to the boy, seized him by
both ears. led him thus to the door and
kicked him ont of 1t, exclaiming:-
"Get out, YOU young brigandi Get back
to your mother just as quick as you camp
With a red face the officer returned TO
his chair, muttering to his companions as
he waved his hand toward a party of the
condemned insurgents.

A Pro nd Indian Princess.

It is told of the beautiful Princess
Ahmadee Of India that when she was
first brought to England she refused to
allow herself to be presented to Queen
Victoria. saying. to the horror Of her at
tendants, that the caste of her race for
bade her to look upon her interiors. 1t
was only byspersistent entreaties that the
proud little beauty could be induced to
obey the Qteen's summons to Windsor,
and eyen When she did deign to confront
her majesty nothing could induce her to
offer the slightest token of respect for the
sovereign pf the people who had depozed
the hereditary rulers of India.
AT first glance one might well be
surprised at the little aemblRnce OF an
Indian p~rincess In the sstire, II not the
