abandoned him. He could not keep the
king without aid. When he had discovered
that StanisIaus was inclined to be clement
he had accepted his clemency, and the
king had kept to his word. However erro-
neous Stanislaus' political opinions and
practices might be- he at least had not lied
in this; was ever, as far as he was able to
be, the good friend Of those who supported
him. At least Count Kolinski declared that
the man was greater than the opinion"
II these declarations were influenced by
fear, I am sure that Count Kolinsld. had
good, prudent reasons for his conduct. At
least l have very vivid picture OF the
strange scene between king and conspira-
tor, Of the rainy night in the wood. fear
I have not made the scene SO clear as the
account Casimir Pulaski gave of the adj
venture that began with the abduction in
the street of the Capuchins.
On the last night of Casimir Pulasd's
life, as have said, he told me this. The
morrow was to bring the fatal assault be-
fore Savannah. Possibly the whole scene is
moro vivid to me on account of that
memory For Count Pulaski, although we
most excellent captain, as his achievement
in the southern department showed
That he served with US at all was en-
tirely due to the adventure of which have
given a poor enough description, and in
which. although it led to his Punishment,
heard many stories to the contrary, have
no reason to doubt the strict truth Of this
statement. for in my own experience ever
found Cashier Pulaski a man of his word.

many a good appointment, and I doubt

he had not had claim to the Scottish earl

us because they had titles. Two of these

I hotel waiter. The man was finical in
the extreme. and the exactitude of his or

was somewhat Of judge of human nature,
nasmuch as he had served breakfast to
many men.
Breakfast time is invariably when you get
down to the bedrock of mans true dispo-
stion. 1t Is too early in the day and he IS
too close to nature itself to have put on
the little friils that he begins to assume
along about II O'Clock. At all events, the
waiter understood and took his order re-
specially, even servilely, without losing
his own estimate of the man..
The man had morning cough, and sip
ped ice water as he gave his order.
Bring me a pot of Coffee he said. "And
mind, it must be hot-hot and strong-don',
forget to have it strong. And sirloin
steak, rare; remember. have it rare, and nc
fat. 1 can't bear the sight of fat in the
morning.
"Yessir, yessir. No fat" replied the
waiter.
And bring me some dry toast, hot, mind
you; not toast, and have it made from stale
bread. don't want it toasted outside and
soggy within. Now, don't forget that"

waved the trees and swept their faces. The

HARD TO HANDLE.
In Timidity the Giraffe Greatly Re-
sembles the Deer.

In Timidity the Giraffe Greatly Re-
sembles the Deer.
From Leisure Hours.
The greatest living example Of the giraffe
that has so recently been added to The So
ciety's collection arrived in England during
the exceptionally hard winter. and, al
though cooped up in a roughly built box,
seemed at the end Of its long journey but
little the worse for 1t, and day after 1t
had been in its house, fed heartily, and
seemed perfectly well and sound. It is a
peculiarly handsomely marked specimen
much darker in color than any that have
previously been brought to this country
All that we have had have come from the
northern half of Africa, and are known as
Nubians; this one comes from the south.
When 1t first came, it had on headstall
with a rope halter. This, it was felt, 1t
would be wise to take off. and we hap
pened to be present the morning 1t was
done. On paper it seemed an easy thing
to do-just take 1t of; but with a risky
and timid creature like the giraffe 1t was
hard work for three strong men. First,
they had to get a rope round the leather
headstall. then the moment that was done
the creature pirouetted round and round
and twisted the rope about Its neck and
legs so that the keepers were In the utmost
alarm lest in It's frantic struggles 1t should
seriously damage itself At last they I'M
wound the rope and endeavored to pull
the CRATES high head down to such a
level that they could get at it: but time
after time. just as the victory seemed cer-
tain, it suddenly slowed away, twisting the
cord again and again around its neck. AT
last, however. they did succeed. One clev-
er cut with sharp knife and the whole
headstall fel. off, and the creature bound
ed away with flying heels, much to the
danger of the three men.
Mr.. Windhorn, the Cape farmer who
caught and brought 1t over. described how
he feared it would hardly live, as it was
so thin and emaciated when he got 1t, but
it soon took to feeding and got into better
condition. He had long ride after 1t and
caught 1t with a lasso, which he is an
adept at throwing.
1t is very curious how timid these crea-
lures are about certain sounds. Noisy
sounds, like a man walking by with hob
nail boots, 1T does not notice; but lady
coming in with hardly more sound than the
mere rustling of her dress, makes 1t stare,
with pricked ears and eyes distended. We
remember well after the terrible explosion
of gunpowder on a barge on the neighbor-
ing canal, asking the keepers of the giraffes
of that day how they had taken it, and he
tice they took at all. They jumped to their
feet, but almost at once lay down again
when they found nothing had happened
But" he added, "if I was at night time
to creep along that gallery in my socks
quietly they would be so scared that be-
lieve they would dash themselves to bits~
They fear the lurking foe, and big bang
scares them less than a faint, rustling
sound. They are in that very deerlike.

He had a bouquet in his hand-a bouquet

as he fourished his club.

ment and in the enjoyment of q reputa-
ton that is in the past. One is Freder-
lex Tennyson, now near his ninetieth year,
who has carried his art into old age, and
is even now preparing a volume for pub
lication. The time was when he seemed
to be a greater poet than his brother AL
fred, but the Laureate long ago left him
behind in the race. Another is Mr.. Aubrey
de We're, whose father, Sir Aubrey de Vere
was friend of Wordsworth, and whose
poetry is in some sense a Renaissance of
the Lake poets" He has written largely
on Roman Catholic subjects, but his work
has been better adapted for small circle
than for the multitude. The third is Mr..
Philip James Bailey, who sixty years ago
was famous the author of "Festus,"
but who has so died out of recollection
that few of the present generation have
ever heard of him. Once he was rated
far ahead of Browning in public estima-
tlon, and his admirers claimed that he
would leave Tennyson out of sight.

No mongrel ticket urged upon a voter
with the plea that II Is non-partisan can

Nothing could be a better illustration
OF a "mongrel ticket" han the list OF
self-styled independent Council candi-
dates in the First Ward.
Someone representing Mr.. HOWARD
o. SrURoEs, Mr.. HENRY W. COOKE and
Mr.. ELISHA ii. HOWARD, who are mug
wumps, approached the Hon. JOHN III.
MAoUIRE, who is a f~actionist Democrat,
aud keeps a modest rum shop on wiclsen-
den street. Tho representative OF the
mug wumps asked MAGURfE under what
circumstance he would vote for his eli
ents, and MAGuRE promised his support
IL he could have two Democrats associ-
sted with the nugwump on the ticket.
The representative agreed to that, and
MAoUIRE named Mr.. CHARLES COTTON
SEED NICHOLS and Mr.. SAM BULLOCK.
The mugwumps knew that the level
headed Republicans wouldn't support
them, and the MAoURE people knew
that the respectable Democrats wouldn't
vote for him. Hence the combination
which illustrates the meaning OF the
term "mongrel ticket"
1t may also be said to illustrate the
tendencies OF the so-called ''reform"
movement in this town. Mr.. CHARLES
