Louis Fleischer, who returned from Sonora day before yesterday, states that large excursion of Ilcrmosillo people went to the Hacienda of Don Juan Luken. last Saturday, the object of the trip being the celebration of the saints day of Mrs. Matilde de Luken. There were about sixty per sons in the party, and were accom- panied by Campodonico's orchestra.
 Shortly after the arrival of the pleasure seekers a grand feast was spread for them by the hostess. The remainder of the day was spent in dancing and riding about the hacienda being one of the most picturesque spots in Sonora for the latter pleasure. The orange orchard especially is one of the finest in the state. In the eye- ming Yaqui Indian performed the national dance, which MT. Fleischer describes as follows
 "The pascola dancer was shoyered with money by the spectators, all of which he picked up with his mouth, a certain Isidoro was so enthusiastic over the dance that he cried "buen corazon' and leaping into the arena gave the performer an 'abrazo." During the stay of the party at Ll Labor MT and Mrs. Luken, who are well known for their generous hop- tality, did everything in their power to make the fiesta a successful one and that they succeeded goes without say lng.

The international bimetallic com.
mission sent over to England and Europe
by President Mckinley has met the ex-
pected rebuff in England. The CON-
mission is headed by Senator Wolcott
and consists Of that gentleman, ex-vice
president Stevenson and an inconse-
~quential gentleman from Massachusetts,
all appointed by President Mckinley.
They have oeen across the water about
eight months waiting most Of the time
for a reply to their advance made to the
British government foI a united effort in
favor Of international b%imetalllsm. Lord
Salisbury now replies that the govern
ment OF Great Britain is not able to re.
open the India mints at present. He re.
grets the governments inability to accede
to the proposals Of the American com.
mission, Great Britain having as great
an interest as the United States and
France IN securing a stable par exchange
for gold and silver.
Under these circumstances" con-
tinued Lord Salisbury, "the British
government does not see the deslrability
OF an international monetary conference,
but will be pleased to consider any other
practical suggestions from the United
States"
Lord Salisbury encloses with the note
a copy of the statement of Sir J.. Wes-
land, head OF the financial department OF
India, which was under discussion at the
meeting of the cabinet council last
Saturday and which takes strong
grounds against the reopening OF the

SYNOPSIS.

Gerald Rayburn, a romantic young
American travelling in central France,
comes to the town of Clermont- Fcrrand,
in the department of Puy-de-Dome named
after the mountain so called. He finds at
the same hotel two American girls, MISS
Miriam Lowell and friend, from Boston.
He is attracted by Miss Lowell and en-
deavors to make her acquaintance, but
she and her friend ignore him. He desists
from the effort and devotes himself to
sightseeing. He makes a pedestrial trip
to the top of the mountain, Puy-de-Dome,
and sees the young ladies there. He learns
at an inn al the foot of the mountain that
they have driven over and intend to walk
back by a short cut down the mountain
which meets the Clermont-Ferra road
further along. Rayburn starts home and
comes TO a detail of soldiers guarding
part of the road across which artillery
target practice is soon to take place. He
is told to hurry along. Reaching the guard
at the other side, he realizes that the short
cut by which the young ladies are to come
leads into the dangerous section of the
road. He asks the French sergeant to
send word to them or to let him go back
and warn them. The sergeant refuses to
do either. Just then Rayburn sees the
young ladies coming along the road in
front of the targets.

INGERSOLL'S QUEER FEE.
Was Paid Counterfeit $1,000 Bill,
but Afterward Reimbursed.

About the time Colonel Ingersoll went
to New York the gambling element
along Sixth avenue and from Four
teenth to Thirty-second street had
many cases to try. At Jake Smiths,
who now keeps saloon at the corner of
Twenty eighth and Sixth avenue there
one night congregated about twenty
professional counterfeiters, card sharps,
green goods men and the like. They
discussed attorneys, and when the night
was over they had agreed to band to-
gether and to employ lngersOll to defend
them when legal defense became neces-
sary. The first case given the lawyer
was one in which a man named Coul-
son was charged with counterfeitins
81, 600 notes. Coulson had been arrested
and a spurious bill of the above denom-
ination had been found upon his person.
Colonel Ingersoll appeared for him.
The chief prosecuting witness was a
man named Jordan, a kinsman of Col
| Onel Jordan of the New York subtreas-
| ury, who was an expert in detecting
| counterfeit coin. Colonel Ingersoll held
| the $1,000 bill in his hand. He would
! lower it, raise it again and then place
it in such a manner as to catch every
| angle of the eye.
| MI. Jordan you say lllS is counter
| feit?" asked the colonel in very
serious tone as he held the piece Of pa
| per in his hands. The reply was in
the affirmative. Then he lowered his
hand that contained the bill between
his knees and asked; "Do you mean to
say this bill is counterfeit?"
Mr.. Jordan thought that the colonel
had changed bills on him and replied:
| mo, | didn't say anything of the kind.
"Then, your honor" said IngersOll
addressing the judge, Il move the case
| be dismissed" and before the prosocu-
tion could make a counter move the
| defendant had been discharged. AS he
started from the courtroom Coulson tolG

subtreasury for change it was stamped

Then, before the lawyer had time t
speak, $1,000 in bills was thrust into
his hands and Couson walked rapidly
