''While in Paris a short while ago.
said traveller recently, according to
the Washington Post, sit occurred to
me that IL was fitting act to make a
pilgrimage to the tomb of that illustri-
Gus Frenchman dear to the hearts of
all American patriots, Marquis de
La Fayette. / asked number of peo-
pie before [ could find anyone to en-
tighten me as to the spot, but after re-
peated inquiry ascertained its location.
The grave is situated in old Paris,
within the grounds of a convent that
the ancestors of La Fayette founded,
and where repose the remains of many
of the French nobility.
''The first thing that attracted my
attention in connection with the hero's
tomb was that above it foated a silken
flag, bearing the Stars and Stripes. 1t
seems that good many years ago an
American gentleman left in his will a
sum of money to be used for the special
purpose of keeping an American flag
forever flying above the grave of La
Fayette. 1t has done SO without inter
mission from the day the will went
wear of the elements one flag becomes
unserviceable, new one straightway
takes its place. Through untold CEN
turies the emblem of the country
which in its early struggles for liberty
had his beneficent aid will wave above
his ashes"

Two American bicyclers, Allen and

meeting with Chinaman in the heart

them by addressing them in the purest
English. ''He was one of that party
of mandarins' sons which had been
sent over TO our country some years
ago, as an experiment by the Chinese
government, to receive a thorough
American training. We cannot here
give the history of that experiment, as
Mr.. Woo related .itAhow they were
subsequently, accused of cutting off
their queues and becoming denational-
lied, how, in consequence, they were
recalled to their native land, and de-
graded rather than elevated, both by
the people and the government, be-
cause they were foreign in their senti-
mentS and habits; and how, at last,
they gradually began to force recogni-
ton through the power of merit alone.
He had now been sent out by the gov
ernment to engineer the extension of
the, telegraph line from Su-chou to
Urumtsi, for it was feared by the gov
ernment that the employment of for
eigner in this capacity would only in
crease the pawer for evil which the ma
tives already attributed to this foreign
innovation. The similarity in the
phrases telegraph pole and dry heaven
had inspired the common belief that
the line of poles then stretching across
the country was responsible for the
long-existing drought. In one night
several miles of poles were sawed short
off, by the secret order of a banded
conspiracy. After several decapita-
tions, the poles were now being re-
stored, and labeled with the words:

a fur collar reaching high enough to
cover the head and face. Over all this
she had sheepslkin reaching to the

sheepskin she wore dacha, which is

On my feet were stockings made of

How They Are Utilized in Making Fine
Shoes for Ladies.
Speaking of the fashions brings us to
an odd discovery which has recently
been made. There is small shop on
the other side of the Seine, in the Rue
des Ecoles, which deals exclusively
with the secondhand boots of the men
who work in sewers. These boots, says
a Paris letter, are furnished by the
state, and come half way up to the
thigh, and each man is allowed a new
pair every six months. When new they
cost nine dollars; when sold second
hand they realize the modest sum of
fifty cents; but as at least six thousand
pairs per annum are sent to the Rue
des EcoleS it makes quite a booming
industry.
The leather of these boots is, SO to
speak, tanned by the alkaline and
greasy water in which the sewer-clean-
ers SO perpetually paddle, and they are
eagerly sought for by the great
Parisian bootmakers; for this leather.

of iron; but that was heavy and clum-
sy, so finally the ingenious dealer hit
upon this substitute, to the delight of
the sewer-cleaners, who realized a
modest sum. and the content of the
fashionable DooJmaker, whose shoes

Gathering In Tennessee.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, March l9.-The
Hon. ". C. T. Breckenridge delivered q
lecture at the Gospel Tabernacle in this
city on the night OF June . last for the
benefit OF a local charitable institution.
He had been to Lebanon, Tenn, where
he delivered IN address to the grad.
uating class OF Cumberland University
aud gave the lecture here without any
personal remuneration.
At the conclusion OF his address, Col.
Breckenridge was presented with q very
large and beautiful basket of flowers.
In return for this compliment, he made
q highly ornate and touching speech,
taking occasion 10 say in a pathetic
name that he had no wife to whom
he could give them, This circumstance
has been wildly recalled by the revela-
ton that Colonel Breckenridge was
secretly married to Mrs. Wing April %,
1898, more than q month prior to the
date Of this ap parcntly Unnecessary
declaration.
