A CHICKEN FOR ONE.

A Pigmy for Epicures Now Served by
 Paris Eestaurateurs.
 It is generally conceded that small bird makes very dainty meal for one person, ard II must have been a source of regret to mary that it was seldom possible tn obtain chicken just large enough for one man with moderate appetite. The difficulty has now been removed, in Paris at least, says the New York Journal.
 Many Paris hotels and restaurants are now introducing as a novelty into their menus what might be described as lone man, one chicken" Everyone who understands anything of the appe- tite of man understands that he likes best to tackle bird single-handed With the ordinary fowl this was, of course, impossible, so the ingenious chef proceeded to develop, or rather curtail, the spring chicken, and now three-months-old bird is served to each guest, just as though it were quail or blower. That there is any stability in the body of so young and tender chicken can hardly be admit ted; but the novelty has been greatly appreciated, especially by Americans in Paris, and there is already a demand, and a great one, for hedgling barn. doors.

Kleptomania.
doors.

To believe French writer, there are
 no fewer than four thousand women
 caught every year in stealing during their shopping expeditions, a habit eu- phoniously styled kleptomania. The number of titled ladies seized with this strange malady while examining the fashions of Paris, he tells us, is incred- ible. Among the most recent culprits were Russian duchess, a French countess, an English duchess and the daughter of reigning sovereign. As rule, these distinguished offenders are let off on the payment of a round sum for the relief of the poor; when the shoplifter is known to be rich, the sum extracted rises to as much as ten thousand francs. The police authori. ties consent to this sort of conformation.

CARPETS WERE UNKNOWN.
How the Fourteenth Century Mansions
 Were Furnished.


 Carpets in the fourteenth century were unknown luxuries, says Good Words. but the fashion of strewing the apart ments with rushes was being gradually abandoned. Rushes were still used in the retainers' hall, but for the better rooms sweet-scented herbs and fragrant twigs were usually employed.
 In the fourteenth century windows were apertures filled with glass so as to admit light, but to exclude wind. The walls also were frequently hung with cloth or tapestry to protect the inmates of the room from the many currents of air that penetrated the strong but bad ly built walls. We learn from various ancient documents that it was the duty of the serving men and pages to sweep out the principal apartments, but as the use of water is rarely mentioned, damp and fragrant leaves and twigs must have aided not only in collecting the dust, but also toward refreshing the at mosphere in such costantly closed rooms, fresh air being only admitted through the doors opening on to the battlements or balconies.
 From old inventories at Thurleigh and elsewhere we ascertain how scant- fly furnished were these ancient man. sions, although they seem to have been abundantly supplied with fagons and drinking cups in gold, silver and finely engraved pewter, besides an infinite number of black jacks or cups made Of leather.

Keeps Up an Industrious Racket During
 Absence of WOrkmen.
 A man fell from the housetop in the city of Aberdeen, and was brought into hospital with broken bones. He was asked what was his trade, and replied that he was tapper. No one had ever heard of such a thing before, says the Amateur Emigrant; the officials were filled with curiosity; they besought an explanation. It appeared that when a party of skaters were engaged upon roof they would now and then be taken with fancy for the public house. Now, a seamstress, for example, might slip away from her work and no one be the wiser, but if these fellows adjourned the tapping of the mallets would cease, and thus the neighborhood would be advised of their dereliction. Hence the career of the tapper. He has to do the

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

A French Tragedian Finds It Mightier
 Than the Sword.
 The affection of the collector for the objects of his zeal has been amusingly illustrated by story told of Melingue, a French tragedian who had a mania for gathering together great quantities of old vestments, arms and similar an tique apparatus. Among his treasures was beautiful and keen-edged sword which had belonged to Philip H., son of Emperor Charles V.
 Having worn this sword in a 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 II.
 r Coming around corner, Melingue was suddenly menaced by two sneak thieves. He 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 flight.
 In this case the umbrella turned out to be mightier than the sword.

 But in This Case New Heroine Was
 Worked In.
 Young story-writers are apt to begin literary career by telling, in some form or other, the story which follows. But it must have taken a real genius to make COW the heroine. This particular story is attributed by the Philadelphia Times. in which we find it, to Texas locomo- tive engineer.
 The engineer was running his train at full speed, when, he says, his atten- tion was attracted by COW which seemed to be coming straightdown the track to meet the train. He put his hand on the valve and puffed out three sharp whistles.
 every step, and acting altogether in an unusual manner. As much from curi- osity as anything else. the engineer slowed up and sent the fireman ahead to see what was the matter with the COW. No sooner did the COW see that the speed of the train was slackening, and that the fireman was going to investi- gate, than she turned and ran straight back down the track, stopping now and then, looking over her shoulder and switching her tail as much as to say: Come on!''
 The man followed, and by and by saw the COW stop short at high trestle. Going up, he discovered another COW which had got herself fastened in the trestlework squarely across the rail.
 As soon as the animal was released, the two cows lost no time in scampering away.

 When he taps for only one or two the thing is child's play, but when he has to represent whole troop it is then that he earns his money in the sweat of his brow. Then must he bound from spot to spot, reduplicate, triplicate, sextuplicate his single personality, and swell ard hasten his blows, until he produces perfect illusion for the ear, and you would swear that crowd of emulous masons were continuing mer- rily to roof the house.

She is now teacher in the academy of which her husband is principal.

But, notwithstanding they are now in tn |city itself, there are few lots for sale vet at prices corresponding with the "Sound Money Doctrine" of President Cleveland and his cuckoos, which means that kind of dollar which will buy two dollars worth of property. These lots are near the new elec- tric car line which is now in operation. The lots are in the city and their occupants do not need to ride into town, but the presence of electric street cars is popular and adds market value to the property. Inside of five years this will be business property. Buy lot now for residence and when

THE ITALIAN CRISIS.

The Ministry Compelled to Resign-Con-
tinued Dlsorders-More of the Slaughter
of the Army at Adowa.
ROME, March 6.-The Crispi ministry
has fallen beneath the storm of anger
at the administration policy in Abys-
sinia and the terrible massacre at
Adowa. which has convulsed all Italy.
In the chamber of deputies yesterday
the premier announced the resigna-
tions, and their acceptance by King
Humbert. The fierce Indignation of
the populace is not satisfied, although
the reports from Africa are less alarm
ing than heretofore. The neighbor-
hood of the chamber of deputies
has been scene of tumult
and uproar all day, and last
night a bowling mob still has
possession, shouting: "Down with
Crispi," Death to Baratieri" and
similar expressions. The agitation
was as threatening as ever and during
the course of the evening the rioters
smashed numerous windows. Almost
everywhere excited crowds were parad-
ing the streets and the police had
great difficulty in dispensing them, as
is shown by the reports of many con-
X
Der of arrests were made. The disturb
ance has been greatly increased by
the calling out of the army re-
serves of the class of 1872, which calls
80, 900 additional men into active serv-
ice. The great majority of these re-
serves are married men whose families
will thus be deprived of their chief or
only support for an indefinite period
Thus at Milan and other places serious
rioting has occurred when the reserv-
ties were preparing to obey orders,
and in'many cases they have been pre-
vented by force. The war Office has
admitted that ''at least $50 Italian
officers were killed at the battle of
Adowa, but the officials still refuse to
admit that over 5000 men were killed.
They say, however, they believe"
$500 Italian troops and 5000 native
troops in the Italian service were en-
gagged (7,0O0 in all), and "that nearly
Rlr' the artillery, ammunition and sup
plies fell into the hands of the enemy.

NEW YORK, March THE World
prints an authentic statement of the
policy of Spain as to Cuba from Prime

which the speeches at Washington naturally

The situation now is one of extreme delicacy.
Indeed, cannot define how far it is possible
for the government of Spain to permit amicable
and careful mediation of a foreign power, how
ever honorable and DISTINGUISHED it may be,
without mourning the grave risk OF being ac-
cused of submitting to outside interference,
pressure and dictation in the midst of a
civil war. The United States is a great
power, and until it recognizes the
object and encourages the aims
of the insurrectionists in Cuba, it is
friendly to Spain. After the recognition of
the belligerents in Cuba by the United States,
it would be impossible for the government OF
Spain to accept the good Offices of President
Cleveland, or to permit any Intervention what

THE CARE OF VETERANS.

The InspectOr-GenerAPs Interesting AM
nual Report on soldiers Homes.
WASHINGTON, March 9.-The speaker
has laid before the house the annual
report of the inspector-general on an
inspection of the several branches of
the national home for disabled vo1un-
teer soldiers. Financial affairs are
found to be in satisfactory condition,
considera BILE surplus remaining at the
end of the year. The average number
of memb ers cared for during the last
year was 16, AIT, which, the report
says, nearly equals the COM
bined strength of our infantry
and artillery. The number of per-
sons cared for has increased at the
average rate of 799 per year and the
institutions are greatly overcrowded.
Many of the inmates at the time of in
spection were sleeping on the floors, in
attics and easements and in other
places not intended for sleeping pur-
poses. A system of outdoor relief is
recommended, the cost of such relief
not to exceed the amount expended
upon actual inmates of the institution.

A Con f1ict Between Gendarmes and an
Anti-American Mob at Bilboa.
MADRID, March 1O.-The turbulent
element in the city of Bilboa, which
created disturbances Sunday, con-
tinued to defy the authorities yester-
day and made violent demonstrations,
in spite of the armed threat of the
gendarmes. Disorders were renewed
near the American consulate, and a
determined effort was made to reach
the building where the consulate is
located. The gendarmes showed equal
determination in frustrating this at
tempt and succeeded. But this was
not done without serious collision
between the mob and the gendarmes,
in which 20 of the former are known
to have been injured. Nine of the
gendarmes were also injured. With
this rebuff, the mob drew off, But the
inhabitants of Bilboa are still in a tur-
bulent mood and the police authorities
find it necessary to take every precau-
ton to guard against injury being
done to the United States consulate.
