TWO AFRICAN MONARCHS.
Experiences of Traveller in Daho-
mey and Porto Nova

M Paul Mimande has recently paid
a visit two dusky potentates ruling, un-
der French control in West Africa, and
gives q description of his experiences
in "r,'IIlustration. Aqo-li-Aqbo, the
King of Dahomey, according to the
writer. is a decidedly antipathetic per-
sonage. His majesty is a large, stout
negro. with a broad fiat nose and a sly,
treacherous expression. On ceremonial
occasions he wears a sort OF toga OF
white cloth and a pasteboard helmet
covered with some spangled material.
This costume, though sufficiently ao-
s,rd has the advantage of being SIM
pie and inexpensive. Aqo-ll-Aqbo IS
vain and fond of display; but unhappiiy
the royal purse is depleted, and ne cam
not crafty his luxurious tastes. Too
poor to maintain the royal stables, he
has been obliged to abandon driving
about in the berlin which his predeces-
sor enjoyed. and in his mortifcation
hit upon a happy expedient which is
chara cteristic He caused small We
hicle TO be built, something like the
wagons in which peddlers hawk their
goods at country fairs, and. in deficien-
cv Of horses. conferred upon his Min
isters the honor of dragging it. The
Ministers play their part to perfection;
they trot along rapidly at an even
pace, ard. the drive over, resume their
posts as the confidential friends and
advisers Of their sovereign. Aqo-l1-
Aqbo has had the honor. NJ. Paul Mi
mande declares. Of realizing practically
for the first time the conception OF the
chariot Of state, which has hitherto
been REGARDED as merely an abstraction.
The King of Dahomey has three hun
dred wives. and lives in the old palace
Of Sambodji. which formerly witnessed
so many human sacrifices, the very
walls only a short time ago being gar
nished with skulls. He has no longer
any power either to behead or cruelty,
and contents himself with smoking,
drinking and courtship.
Toffa, the King of Porto Nova. is a
much more wealthy and powerful mon
arch Indeed, since Solomon. it is a
question whether he has had his peer.
Teffa has a full treasury, five hundred
wives ard concubines ad libitum, who
never address him save on their knees:

his approach. and children more num-
erous than those Of Priam. He is q

The saloon, il would seem, never
knows when it is we'll off. In Oakland
it has just put on foot a scheme to re-
duce the license tax for retailing liq-
uors from $1G0 to 500 a quarter, and
an ordinance to that effect has been in
Thus, TO effect a paltry saving Of some
ST a week, the Oakland saloon throws
a brand into the community that will
sometime, sooner or later, result in the
kindling of a fire that will scoroh the
saloon to the bone, and make its friends
curse the hour of their shortsightedness.
The present rate has prevailed in Oak
land for eight years. In that time the
city has grown and prospered greatly,
and the saloon has shared in it all. Ii
not. it has been because of undeserving-
The rate prevailing was agreed upon as
a compromise between those who in
sisted upon a very high license, and
those who wished a very low one.
The $500 year was looked upon as
sufficient 10 check the growth of low
places and insure an income to the city,
commensurate with the cost visited
upon the community in police manage
ment alone, by reason of the existence
OF the saloon. This latter influence, al
ways restless, always asking more than
it can secure, now proposes to upset
the compromise and restore an order
Of things which was deplorable. If we
mistake not, the wiser and better class
of saloon men are opposed to the move
ment. They are conscious that the
higher license is really beneficial TO
them. They know that the speculative
element hope by reduction of the Ii
cense tax in one of the chief cities Of the
State TO make a breach in the wall of
regulation that viii contribute to a
scheme at the next Legislature for
law stripping communities of the right
to regulate license affairs in their own
way. The plan will not succeed. No
one who reads the signs of the age fails
to see that the saloon is no longer the
legislative power it once was. 1t will
not succeed in establishing uniform IL
cense in California. The people are not
proposing to break down the wall of
local defense with which the law now
equips them in the matter Of regulating
"the Liquor industry" If the Oakland
saloon men will be advised, they Will
drop the proposition they are pushing
there instantly, and thank their stars
that they are able to get out of it so
easily. The Oakland Enquirer" is not
at all extravagant in expression when it
characterizes the new movement as
Outrageous, foolish, uncalled for and a
boodling scheme, intended to put local
self government in Oakland in the same
pillory in which the Infamous pool
room council stood two years ago, a
mark for the scorn of all decent peo-

spades, with small but keen, piercing
eyes. and is very subtle and intelligent.
When he appears in his royal costume.
splendid robe embroidered with gold,
a. helmet with a tufted plume, his arms
loaded with bracelets and his breast
starred with amulets, he produces an
extraordinary and very contradictory
impression-that of grotesqueness COM
bined With real dignity.
Toffd's palace is a handsome wooden
structure, not unlike the country seat
of well-to-do middle-class English
man. A long avenue of trees leads up
to it. and the inclosure in which it
stands is surrounded by a wall, with an
immense entrance gate which, for the
most part, is Hospitality open. 1t is
evident that the King is beloved by his
subjects and is in no fear of anarchists
and dynamiters. His manner of re-
ceiving European visitors is novel. Tof-
ia sits upon his throne in the recep-
ton nall surrounded by his councillors
and Eiembers of the household. The
foreigners are introduced. A bottle of
champagne is brought, and the three
principal officials of the kingdom come
forward to open it; one takes the bot
tie, the second the corl1screw and the
third the glasses. Their faces are
grave; they feel the responsibility of
their important Office. When the glasses
are filed the King rises. This is the
supreme moment; the courtiers pros
trate themselves face downwards; his
majesty clicks his glass with those of
his guests and they drink in silence.
The ceremony over, Toffa resumes his
seat and strikes the floor with his cane,
the signal for the courtiers to rise. On
hearing it they start up, swapping their
fingers like castanets.-Public Opinion.

1t seems that it has never dawned
upon the intelligence of the autocratic
theatrical managers who have resolved
that California shall have no more first
class dramatic attractions at their
hands, that if they had been wise in
their day, and have made the schedule
of their admission prices reasonable,
that the masses of the people might
have witnessed the performances of
high-class companies, there would have
been more money in the managerial
strong box, and broader and better ap-
probation of the artists, and of the en-
terprise of the managers in bringing
such attractions to the coast. A great
actor once said that he never had any
fear of a verdict rendered by the great
masses of the people, if he could only
reach them. He feared injustice and
non-appreciation very often when his
managers shut out from his entertain
ments all but those who could come or
remain away regardless of the cost of
admission. If the managers desert Cal
ifornia because not enough ducats flow
into the treasury, they are themselves
largely to blame. They have preferred
a few people at a high price to a multi
tude at a reasonable one.
