Formally Which Compile de Paris Exaets
OF His Guests.
The royalist ladies do not like the
idea of having, when invited by Comtc
and Confess de Paris ON visits of three
days to Stowe, to bring six dressy
dresses with them. says London Truth.
Three of the toilets are to be worn
in the daytime at the rate of one day,
and three in the corresponding even
ings. The entertainments at Stowe are
not very entertaining, and the royal
lists have made up their minds that
nothing short of war disastrous to
France can bring royalty back again.
Those who would stand the best chance
of being invited are generally hard up.
A due whose name was great deal as
ISOLATED with that of Due d'0rleans is,
for instance, unable just yet to clear
off bill of about five hundred pounds
to tradesman. A duchess of tip-top
position in the 0rleanist ranks mot
Duchess d Uzes) is so dipped as to be
unable to marry her daughter she find
ing it impossible to repay sums of
money that she spent belonging to the
young lady, who. still being minor. can
not sign paper which would cover her
grace from being sued by afuture SON

point, still more influential grandame

money off the son-in-law Of great

- and O'Clock Wednesday night The
fire caught in back room in some man
ner unknown. Several buildings nearly
caught fire, but prompt work saved
them. The loss is about $500; the in
surance about $500. Mr.. West is a
country trader with fair stock. The
family of David A. Rowe lived over the
store; and had only time to escape with
out getting out any of their furniture.
They will feel their loss keenly. During
the fire James A. Rounds, who lives
near the store, went onto his roof to
keep it from getting afire In some way
he slipped and fell to the ground, cut
ting his head and stunning him. His in
iuries are not thought to be serious. Mr..
West was absent at the time of the fire.
THE POST OFFICE.
The general feeling at West Baldwin is
that George G. Dow will get the post
office. He won in the caucus by four
votes over VIM. C. West and is reported
to have Kimball Eastman and the ma
chine on his side. The West people still
insist that their man should have it.

jay GouId's Wealth.

Jay Gould's millions are subject to
more ups and downs in the world
than is the average lot OF man. When
he died he left stocks valued at
so, 900, 900. These securities increased
in value rapidly until Jan. 20, when
the Gould estate was worth Ia the
market $4,000, 900 mole than when Its
creator died. But all that profit and
several millions more besides have
been wiped out by recent events In
Wall street. When the market closed
on June 3, the Gould trust securities
were worth SG,0O0.000 less than on
the day Jay Gould died. Eyen that
was better than their condition a
month ago. On May ., the Gould
block Of Western Union, Manhattan,
and Missouri Pacific was worth about
sGl 200, 900, or $1,000, 900 lees than on
December 4, when Mr.. Gould died.
The zigzag Of the Gould millions In
these few months makes an interest
ing study in figures. Taking go, Ooo, 900
a. basis, it is seen that the estate
has touched a. high one as S82, OO0, 900
and as low a one as SGl 900, 900, a
fluctation OF SCI, 900, 900.

Fed His Enemy TO Ants.

\ story OF terrible revenge taken
by Herbert l.. Drummer, II Russian
American, on his rival in love, comes
from Nicaragua. Drummer went 10
that country from New York three
years ago and when the revolution
broke out ne wa- made colonel OF
insurgents. Trouble began when he
was introduced TO the daughter OF
General Santagua. The dashing
youth reused the jealousy Of Col
Perlotte. one Of the young woman
admirers, and bitter hatred sprung
up.
\ desperate hand to hand encoun-
ter was the prelude and Perlotte was
decidedly worsted Several days ar
terward Perlotte. with Il band Of
soldiers, Kidnapped Drummer aud
put him bound in II cave. Only the
betrayal Of Perlotte by one OF his
troopers saved Drummer from dying
lingering death.
Every one expected that Drummer
would shoot Perlotte on sight, but he
did nothing, biding his time.
One night, while going his rounds,
Perlotte, was suddenly seized, bound
and thrown into cart driyed by
Drummer. He was then taken into a
section OF the country Infested with
fierce black ants, which build large
mounds.
Il am going to stake you down and
let the ants eat you said Drummer,
as he cut the cords on Perlotte's legs.
Four stout stakes were taken from
the wagon and driven into the ground
around one Of the largest ant-hills,
and then the colonel was stripped 10
the skin.
Perlotte screamed, cursed and
prayed, but all ia vain. The poems
dragged him TO the stakes and kicked
the ant hill to pieces. In an instant
the writhing victim was covered with
the terrible ants and was being liter
ally eaten alive.
Drummer remained long enough 10
make sure that his enemy was dead,
aud then, lesping on his horse, he
made his way to the coast and es
capped to New York Oh u calling yes
