IN sPAlN's CAPITAL.
Msdrid L. Not . Great Place, But It H.
Homc Good POsnte,

Some Good Pointa.
The city of Madrid is one of the minor
capitals of Europe architecturally, and
the environment provided by nature
for such monuments as it possesses is
none of the best. says Harper's Maga-
zinc. The surrounding Landscape is
monotonous and bare. The few parks
are pretty in themselves and the famous
promenade, known as the Prado, is
broad and pretentious; but these at
fractions are insufficient to counterbal-
ance the shabbiness OF dusty, ill-kept
streets and dwellings in dull, monde
script style. Life in Madrid is rendered
diverting upon occasions of public re-
joicing by the presence of the court,
otherwise it is the same as in other
large modern cities, like New York or
London, only not SO bright. The bull
ring alone may claim to be better man
aged in Madrid than anywhere else.
This and the ball game called pclota,
which was brought recently from the
Basque provinces, are tho only impor-
tant national spectacles, old and F.
turesquc institutions, which survive III
the center of Spanish political life.
There is little in Madrid itself, then,
which makes it u temptation to wander
from the highways of European travel.
Very few of the buildings ard collec-
tions, aside from the great museum, are
worthy of capital city. The most
that can be said for the royal palace,
an enormous building designed by q
Piedmontese architect, Sacchetti, is
that it has more simplicity than was
usual in the late renaissance period
from which it dates, and that under
one of the ravaging skies of which
Spain is prodigal in spring and summer
it has regal dignity which is i'm
pressive, if the purely artistic features
of the scheme are not.
OF the armory attached to the palace
it is possible to speak more cordially.
1t contains fine collection of antique
mail and weapons, finer, 1 think, than
either of those at Turin and Paris. 1t
has the virtue, moreover, uncommon in
Spain, of being very well arranged.
The academy of San Ferdinand has
some good pictures by Murillo, and by
a much later man, Goya, who is always
the royal palace there is an equestrian
bronze of Philip w., by the Florentinc
Tacca, which is in measure compare
BILE with the statues Of Verrocchio and
Donatello.

STAYED A NOES VENGEANCE.
How q Professor In q Military School
Cooled the Hot Headed Students,

How q Professor In . Military School
Cooled the Hot-Headcd Students.
In the winter of 1sGo-6l the majority
Of the students at the Virginia mill
tary institute were secessionists, while
the people of the town were almost
unanimously for the union. One day,
says the San Francisco Argonaut, two
of the students came back to the insti-
tute much worsted in fight with the
villagers, and the whole school re-
solved on vengeance. Selling their
guns large number of the boys start
ed toward the town. On their way
they had to pass Prof. Jackson's house.
and he came out just in time to inter-
cept them. Jackson stepped on o
horse block in front of the house, and
just as the foremost Of the students
came abreast of him he called out in
his most commanding tone: "Hslt!
front face!' Almost instinctively they
obeyed, and after waiting for the
stragglers to come up he said in his
mildest tone: "Well, young gentlemen,
where are you going?' One of the men
explained in a very excited way that
two of the boys" had been maltreated
by the villagers, and they were deter
mined on revenge. WELL" said the
professor, that may all be very well,
but whom have you for q leader? You
can't go on an expedition without a
leader" They had not thought of
that, they said. ''Well, suppose lead
you?' said Prof. jackson. Nothing
would suit them better. "All right"
said the professor, "but before we
start we must get little better organ
ization." To that end he marched and
countermarched them, wheeled them
up and down the road, and. in short,
carried them through all the evolu-
tions necessary for his purpose, which
was to cool them of. That being ac-
complished he halted them before the
horse block, and, having lectured
them, he wound up by advising them
TO go back to school and be good boys
And this they did, after giving three
cheers for Prof. jackson.
