WAS THE AQUIDABAN sUNK2

New YoRK, April IS, 1894. No confirma-
ton of the report that Admiral Mello's form
mer flagship, the Aquidaban, was yesterday
morning sunk by President Peixotos torpedo
boat Gustave Sampaio, off Desterro, has
been received as yet either by the Brazilian
Consul or by local firms interested in that
country.
At the Office of the Brazilian Consul the
report is received with much hesit-
ancy. The Consul cannot understand
why, if the Aquidaban was the day before
yesterday surrendered by the insurgents, the
Government would deliberately proceed to
sink her. Either the repor that she was sur
rendered or the report that she has been
sunk, the Consul thinks must be untrue.

A GREAT TRANSFORMATION.
How a Forest Was Removed for
Louis XIV,s Benefit.

Louis XlVsg BENEFIT.
Louis XIV. once remarked nnpatiently,
in the hearing of the Due d'Antin. super
intendent of the royal buildings, that he
hoped some time forest, which he always
disliked because it obstructed one of his
fayorite views, would be cut down.
Unknown to the King the Due d'Antin
had the trunks of all the trees in the OBJ
jectionable forest sawed through near the
ground in such a way that they still stood,
though slight pull would bring them down.
He removed every evidence Of the work and
fastened ropes to the tops OF the trees and
concealed more than l 200 nsen in the forest
to manage the ropes at signal from him.
D'Antin knew on what day the King would
walk in the wood, and planned his work ac-
cordingly. The King took his accustomed
promenade, and as usual he expressed his
Sentiments about the hated forest.
ssYour Majesty, the forest shall be removed
whenever you like, said D'Antin.
s'Indeed," said the King, then wish that
it might be done at once.n
At that moment D'Antin blew a shrill
blast from whistle, and to the utter amaze
ment Of the King and the royal party the
forest fell as if by enchantment. Erchdnge.
