ENGLISH DIFFICULT TO LEARN.

Few Frenchmen Can Pronounce tn. Lam
guaEe Without an Accent
The Frenchman, past or present,
who speaks English especially well and
does not pronounce English names
with an accent that is peculiarly
French is very are indeed. President
Felix Faure now holds the honors
throughout all France for his excellent
English, and Englishmen resident in
Paris, as well as the public men of
London, who have opportunities of
knowing, say that he quite equals Ma
poleon III. in his fuency a rAnglaise.
M. Faure, in fact, is the first Of the
presidents who has been able to pro-
nounce English well. Theirs, MacMa-
hon. Grevy and Carnot had a very i'm.
perfect knowledge of that language,
and Grevy was especially weak, not
only in his pronunciation but in his
handling of English verbs. This is a
curious fact, and a rather instructive
one, when 1t comes to be recalled that
nearly all the last kings of France
were good English scholars.
Among French statesmen Baron de
Cource1, the present ambassador Of the
French republic at the court Of st,
James. has a fine grasp of the language
of the country to which he Is accred'
tied. This diplomat showed this in q
most marked manner during the meet
ings Of the Behring sea fishery arbitra
ton, in which he took a prominent
part. ~Clemenceau, the editor and dep
uty, has the reputation Of speaking the
best English in France, and severa
times during his visits to London he
has addressed deputations Of British
workmen in their own tongue, being
able to make himself amply under
stood by the most ignorant a pres

taught to realize the need Of a
good education, and are usually
the most diligent and persever-

the children of well-to-do parents
certainly have a right to the

parents.
The child has a right to q
place of his own, to things of his

have some relation to his size,

NOT AN INTERNAL MACHINE.
Only = Harmless Little Ring Clieking ON

Only y Harmless Little Ring clicking ON
satchel Lock
& dynamo which furnishes the cleo
trio light for one of the passenger trains
between Chicago and Omaha on the
Milwaukee road was the cause OF an
interesting episode in the sleeper the
other night, says the Chicago Times
Herald.
a stranger Of rather mysterious
aspect got On at Elgin OF a w%est-bound
train. He had a queer-looking satchel
with him, which he pushed under the
seat. When the porter came to make
up the berths he put the satchel on an
adjoining seat.
Presently he paused in the midst of
his bed-making, and, fixing both eyes
on the satchel, stared at it. His orbs
seemed to grow as he did so. Finally
he cautiously approached the owner
and said:
Excuse me, sab, but has you got any
kind OBJ clockwork In dat grip, sah?"
The stranger looked at him for a mo-
ment with evident surprise and replied
that he had not.
"Well, excuse me, sab, but dey's
c1ockwork round dis vicinity some
where, sab, and seems to me it bettah
be looked up. I've hearn of dem things
goln' off,"
BY this time two or three other pas
sengers and the conductor had come
up, and became interested in the situa-
ton. The ticking was distinctly audi
BILE and seemed to come from the ''in-
wards" of the grip. The stranger
seemed to be as much interested as
anybody, and remarked that his wife
might have put in the bedroom clock
instead of his collar box. He opened
the satchel, but investigation into all
it's recesses failed to solve the mystery.
AS he closed it up the ticking began
again, and everybody was more puz-
zled than ever until the conductor no
ticed that the little ring which is at
tached to oil satchel locks to assist in
opening was swinging to and fro with
the vibrations caused by the dynamo
and so produced the regular "tick-tick'
which had alarmed the porter. Then
everybody laughed, and the porter went
on with his work,

Boys Composition on Sailors.

The following is declared to be the
work of a pupil in an English elemen-
tary school: 'Seamen are what we call
sailors, and captains, and training ship
boya. The sailors you see in the streets
are nice little fat men, with red and
brown faces. They ware boys coats
and hats, and their trousers are too tite
for hem up above and too wide for
them do 1n below. It makes them feel
very riled. Sailors don't ware collars,
because their necks are SO thick; and
they always have their boots blacked
for fear the captain might see them
around a corner. They don't carry
their best close in boxes, but they ty
them up in big red and blue handker-
chiefs, just like Christmas puddens.
Sailors are very fond of their mothers
and sisters, and you nearly always see
them taking them out to walk. The
reason why sailors like to get drung is
becose it makes them roll about like as
If they were on the oceant."

CAT STOPS A MONKEY FIGA

w
sImians Hear the Feline Spit aud Lose All
Combativeness.
A battle royal between monkeys took
place one afternoon recently, says the
New York Journal, in the window of a
downtown animal importer, to the
great delight of all who could crowd
near enough to the scene to see the
conflict.
Six young monkeys were playing in a
cage behind a big plate-glass window.
Suddenly the monkeys took it into
their heads to scrap. They sprang at
each other in the widest way and hair
few at a lively rate.
There was no apparent reason why
the creatures should have gone at each
other, but go at each other they did. A
Donnybrook ia ir was notin it compared
with the way these monkeys plugged
and chewed each other. Each one
seemed to be for himself and against
all the others.
The crowd of men and boys on the
sidewalk yelled with excitement for
several minutes.
Finally a boy who is employed at a
neighboring restaurant appeared with
a big gray and black cat in his arms.
LET me get near the window" he
cried, land I'll bet my cat will scare
the life out OF the whole lot of them
monkeys"
The crowd let the boy through. The
lad held his Thomas cat up to the glass,
and instantly Mr.. Cat Strengthened out
his whiskers and commenced splitting.
That vas enough.
The gang of monkey fighters heard
the splitting and quit. Their fury was
quieted in a jiffy, and they jumped to
the farthest corner of the cage with a
unanimity that was as pronounced as
their mutual aggressiveness had been.
