NOT THE SAME.
Beranger's Terse and Clever Character.
ization of Victor Hugo.

DerdhSers Terse and Clever Character
ization of Victor Hugo.
A terse and clever characterization
was that by which Beranger, the poet.
summed up Victor Hugo's relation to
the great republican spirit of France.
hugo, although it is said that he was not
a republican at the very beginning of his
career, became most enthusiastic and
outspoken one. He represented the pic
torial, dramatic side of popular feeling
and became so picturesque a figure in
French politics that he could not have
failed to serve as popular idol
Beranger, who was a republican of the
simplest type, Notwithstanding his
share in establishing Louis Philippe on
the throne, denied the poets attitude in
one line.
One day, says the Contemporary Re-
view, shortly after the revolution which
overtoppled that throne, an acquaint-
ance of Beranger met him coming out
Of the Palais-BouI bon. 4 shall feel
obliged" said the poet, IF YOU will see
me home, for l do not feel at all well.
Those violent scenes inside there are not
to my taste. / am not at all well.'' he
continued, with wistful smile: Il have
been accused of having held the plank
ever which Louis Philippe went to the
Iuileries. | wish / could be the bridge
across the Channel ON which he would
return. Certainly l would have liked a
republic, but not such as we are having
III there"
He pointed to the home of the Con-
stituent assembly. You ought to be
pleased" said his friend Victor Hugo
is in the same regiment with you
Victor Hugo is not in the regiment

band"

Something of a Change.

A French paper vouches for this dia-
logue. which took place in French
assize court, as being literally true:
Why" asked the Judge of a man who
had been caught stealing provisions,
did you attempt to rob this poor
baker?"
1T was hunger that forced me to it,

AUSTRALIAN ZEE HUNT.
How the Natives Find the WeIl-Fined
Hives.


An Australian savage comes up to
an Irishman's idea of human skin, for
''he bates the bees" A native seldom
fails to get honey when he discovers
the bee he has been wathching for. The
following description of natives bee
hunt is given in Mr.. Arthur's kangaroo
and Kauri:"
Warruyallah, the chief of tribe,
went with two little nets to a small pool,
filed his II outh with water, and then
lying down, his head hanging over the
pool, he remained quiet for an hour,
apparently looking at his own reflection
in the water. Then the hum of a bee
was heard. BuzZ-z-z it went over the
pool, round the blacks head, now on one
side, now on the other, and now close
to his ear; but not a motion betrayed
the bee hunter.
But when the bee, dropping close to
the water, gave notice by the change of
its tune that it was about to sip, the
chief, with a snort, squirted the water
from his mouth over the little "buzzer.' .
Before it had time to recover from the
unexpected douche, he seized it dex-
teriously by the wings.
Then he prepared it for the chase by
fastening to it a bunch of wild cotton
with some gum. The bee was let go; it
made for its hive, slowly at first on ac-
count of its novel burden. which Inn
peded its progress and showed sign in
/ the air for the chief to follow. Over
hramble and brake went the chief ac-
companied by the men of his tribe, and
in half an hour halted at the foot of an
immense gum tree. into " hose top the
bee had gone.
The chief mounted quickly. by cutting
notches into the bark with his stone
tomahawk. In short time he brought
down quantity Of honeycomb, small
] piece only of which contained honey
The Australian bees are singles.

THE FORMIDABLE UMBRELLA.
A French Tragedian Finds 1t Mightier
Than the Sword.

French Tragedian Finds 1t Mightier
Than the Sword.
The affection of the collector for the
objects of his zeal has been amusingly
illustrated by a story told of Melingue,
a French tragedian who had mania
for gathering together great quantities
of old vestments. arms and similar an
tique apparatus. Among his treasur 5
was a beautiful and keen-edged sword
which had belonged to Philip H., son of
Emperor Charles Y.
Having worn this sword in piece in
which he was performing, Melingue
was making his way homeward in Paris
one night. The weather was rainy and
he carried an umbrella. Under his
cloak he bore the precious sword of
Philip III.
Coming around a corner, Melingue
was suddenly menaced by two sneak
thieves. lie was an expert fencer, and
knew that with the sword he could
quickly beat the rascals off. But he
said TO himself:
what! Betray to these rascals that
have such a precious possession? No!
They might be too much for me, after
all, and then they would get it. / will
keep it out of sight"
So saying, he placed his left hand on
the hilt OF the sword inside his cloak,
and with the other hand let down his
umbrella. With this as a weapon. he
assaulted the footpads with such force
and spirit that he put them to fight.
In this case the umbrella turned out
to be mightier than the sword.
