4 a MUSICAL GENIUS.
The Remarkable Invention OF . French
Court Wit

The Remarkable Invention OF French
Court wit
During the reign of Louis XI. of
France there was attached to his court
one Abbot de Baigne, a man of consid-
erab1e wit. The abbot was somewhat
musica1ly inclined, and delighted the
court with inventions of odd musical
instruments. One day the king, after
having enjoyed a hearty laugh over one
of these curious contrivances, and desir-
ing to battle this musical genius, com-
manded him to produce harmonious
sounds from the cries OF hogs. This
seemed an impossibility to the king,
and he prepared himself to enjoy the
discontinue of the abbot. Much to his
surprise, however, the abbot readily
agreed to produce them. All he re-
quired was a sum of money, upon the
receipt of which he declared he would
invent the most surprising thing that
was ever heard.
He secured the country and secured
a large quantity of hogs, trying their
voices as to pitch and quality, and
finally, having fully satisfied himself,
he arranged the animals In o sort OF
pavilion richly decorated. The day OF
the trial arrived, and the king and his
court entered the pavilion prepared for
something, but greatly in doubt as
to the success of the abbot with the
hogs. However. there were. the hogs,
sure enough, and much to the surprise
and daliOht of the king fhey commenced
to cry harmoniously and in good tune,
rendering an air that was fairly recog-
nized
The abbot had arranged a series OF
stops that were connected with the
hogs, and upon pulling one of them out
caused spike to prick the hog it CON
nected with, making him squeal his
note. The rest was easy, for pull ing
out the different stops he produced khe
tune. The king and all his attendants
were highly delighted with it.-Eaar-

.sIt is Just possible that we may need
something of the sort If we get into

two of the chambers, he put it back
into the right hand pocket of his jacket.
We had, during this time, been fol-
lowing the guidance Of Toby down the
half rural, vi1la-lined roads which lead
to the metropolis. Now, however, we
were beginning to come among contin-
nous streets, where 1aborers and dock
men were already astir, and slatternly
women were taking down shutters and
brushing doorsteps. At the square
topped corner public houses business
was just beginning, and rough-loolsing
! men were emerging, rubbing their
sleeves across their boards after their
morning wet. Strange dogs sauntered
| up, and stared wonderingly at us as we
passed, but our inirnitable Toby looked
neither to the right nor to the left. but
| trotted onwards with his nose to the
ground and an occasional eager whine,
| which spoke of hot scent.
We had traversed Streatham, Brix-
| ton, CamberWeI1, and now found our
selves in Remington lane. having
borne away through the side streets
| to the east of the Oval. The men
| whom we pursued seemed to have taken
a curiousIy zigzag road, with the idea
| probably of escaping observation. They
had never kept TO the main road If a
! parallel side street would serve their
turn. At the foot of Remington lane
| they had edged away to the left through
Bond street and Miles street. Where

for sympathy in his embarrassment.

and tried to break into run. could
see by the CLEAN in Holmes eyes that
he thought we were nearing the end of
our journey.
Our course now ran down Nine Elms
until we came to Broderick & Nelson's
large timber yard. just past the White
Eagle tavern. Here the dog, frantic
with excitement, turned down through
the side gate into the inclosure, where
the sawyers were already at work. On
the dog raced through sawdust and
shavings, down an alley, round pas
sage, between two wood-piles, and
finally, with a triumphant yelp, sprang
upon large barrel, which still stoop

been brought. With lolling tongue

"Now, what could Jonathan Small
do? He could only continue to keep a
secret watch upon the efforts made to
find the treasure Possibly he leaves
England and only comes back at inter
walls. Then comes the discovery of the
garret, and he is instantly informed of
it. We again trace the presence of
some confederate in the household.
Jonathan, with his wooden leg, is ut
terly unable to reach the lofty room of
Bartholomew Sholto. He takes with
him, however, rather curious asso-
ciate, who gets over this difficulty, but
dips his naked foot into creosote,
whence come Toby, and six-mile

aged Achillis tendo."
ssBut it was the associate, and not
Jonathan, who committed the crime.
.Quite SO. And rather to Jonathan's
disgust, to judge by the way he
stamped about when he got into the
room. He bore no grudge against Bar
tholomew Sholto, and would have pre-
ferred If he could have been simply
bound and gagged. He did not wish to
put his head in halter. There was no
help for it, however. the savage in
stincts of his companion had broken
out, and the poison had done it's work:
SO Jonathan Small left his record, low
cred the treasure-box to the ground,
and followed it himself. That was the
train of events as far as can decipher
them. OF course as to his personal ap-
pearance he must be middle-aged, and
must be sunburned after serving his
time in such an oven as the Andamans.
His height is readily calculated from
the length of his stride, and we know
that he was bearded. His hairiness
was the one point which impressed
itself upon Thaddeus Sholto when he
