Court Of. the French Republic.

brac, belonged to Nine. Dubarry. Faure
delighted in this gay decoration. Per-
haps NJ Loubet will get used to it, Or
he may not expect to stay in the Elysee
long enough to make a change worth
while.
There is another salon, somewhat
smaller, in which Nine. Carnot re-
ceived every morning the officer dor
dominance with whom she arranged the
order of the day. Mile. Lucie Faure
transformed this salon into a gorgeous
bOudoir, not entirely for herself for
it was here that she received the DANES
and damsels high up in the patriotic
League of the Children Of France, of
which she was honorary president.
Properly speaking, these are the only
private rooms on the ground floor Of
the Eiysee Nine. Faure had no part
in them Like a good daughter, Mile.
Lucie, aged a. relieved her mother Of
great deal of responsibility.
The Faure family occupied four bed
rooms. OF these the president used
two; the great south room, where the
lar RUN pduOul lOOh sun DdllIo, IC "
cupied in winter to profit by the sun
light. Then, as the summer came he
fed to a cooler, smaller room, quite
simple in its furniture, with a small
brass bed and an immense bath tub.
The bedroom of Nine. Faure had been
previously occupied by Mines. De Mac
MahOn and Grevy. President and Nine.
CarnOt occupied it together Mile. Lu
Gle Faure arranged for herself suite
Of three rooms, a large toilet room,
with smart bathtub and an ultra pri-
vate bOudOir, charming in detail. She
chose furniture in the style of Louis
XVI, the woodwork in sage, white and
gold. Her writing desk belonged to
Marie Antoinette. These three rooms
had been previously occupied by Ern-
est CarnOt, the son of the president,
who used the bOudOir as his study. NJ.
LCubet having two sons, the feminine
choice of furniture in these rooms will
have to be modified.
1t was only when he came to his own
bedroom, in the south room, that the
new president revolted. He did not
object to the delicately beautiful Louis
XIV. wood carving of the cOrniCes and
pillars, doors and panels, but it did
not take him long to order out the lit
tie gimcrack lacquered tables, carved
and gilded chairs, great bed which was
the regents own, and the light-hearted
Fragonards whose scant draped Shep-
herdesses smiled with such provoking
malice President Loubet is from the
south, and he can stand a south eX
posture even in the summer time. This
bed chamber which is like two large
rooms thrown into one, has become his

is used as the ballroom, and because
of it's resemblance to certain iron con-
structiOns in geological gardens, is
known as the Monkey palace. The
rest of the ground floor of the Elysee
has, happily enough, really an i'm
pressive effect This is due chiefly to
the care of NJ. de Gourlet, man OF
taste, whose advice with regard to fur
niShing and decoration is worthy of
attention. The carpets and wall hang
ings are particularly pleasing. Some

the walls and the ceilings is remark
able throughout. The grande sale, in
which banquets are given, is a gor
geous relic of the second empire. The

mired state rooms in the pure empire

Different Papas,

A North Omaha lad of seven win
tiers recently committed an offense
against the parental rule and was
called to account. The little fellow
prevaricated about it. you should
not tell me a story, son." said the fond
papa. That only makes the matter
worse. George Washington would not
tell lie, and when he confessed to his
papa that he had done wrong his papa
forgave him and did not punish him"

Progress of the Telephone.

Mr.. w. H. Preece, president of the

in a recent address, said that speech is
now practically possible between any
two postoffices in the United Kingdom.
Theoretically it is possible to talk be-
tween London and every capital in
Europe, and the British postoffice au-
thorities are considering the submer-

MYSTERIOUS ELEcrRolD.

Francis Rychnowski, a mechanical engineer of Lemberg, Austria, has dis covered a strange and very subtle mat ter, which he has called "electroid, because of certain affinity with elec- trictty Electroid. produced by spe- cial apparatus built by the inventor, Is obtained by the dissolution of certain matters under the influence of the electric current.
 It makes noise, and at the same time a refreshing scent and cool breeze are experienced. This discovery induced MT. Ryehnowski to make a machine capable of refreshing the air to such a degree that those present during the experiment had the feeling that the window was open, although this was not the case. Electroid is a very subtle matter, but it seems to be a fluid, and it can be gathered and preserved; while %alling on plate it reflects in a shape of shining sheayes. The com mission appointed 9y the Austrian government to inyestigathe this dis covery reported that, under the infiu- ence of eleetroid, plants grow rapidly, and the buds of flowers unelose while one is looking at them Electroid An initiates microbes, and thus preserves organic matter These are physio- logical influences of electroid.
 Among mechanical phenomena the commission reported that the influence of. eleeroid is not stopped even by brick wall and glass; that it attracts solid bodies and makes them shine like moonlight-it makes them move and attract other bodies; finally, that it acts on photographic plates and pro- duces sharp and distinct lines, such as were formerly possible only with a very powerful lens. The conclusion of the commission was that MT. Rych- nowskrs discovery will play a great part if applied to industry, as is the case with the discovery of his country man, Jan zczepanik-Londca Sketch.

PIGEONS OF LONDON.

or all the common sights of London none is more interesting than it's pi- geons, which bring a suggestion of old-world stateliness into the turmoil of the city. There is a particular flock for most all the big buildings of Lon don, and they are to be found all oyer the city. A curious fact observed fa that the birds on the east side of huge building have nothing to do with those on the west side, while the bird residents of the north and south sides keep quite as much to themselves.
 The birds live a glorious life, for everybody pets them. The judges of the law courts feed the pigeons, not scraps, but gra!n and such things as birds like. Dozens of clerks in the law yers' offices scatter food for the birds daily in Kings Bench walk, while the keeper of coffee house reIigiously brings bits of broken bread for his feathered friends.
 One of the prettlest sights is to seq the pigeons which live on the British museum. There are half dozen read. CTS who make a practice of feeding tbs birds and the pigeons will abandon strangers who come with full hands for their old friends, even when they appear without food The eabmen are great friends of the pigeons, which seem to realize these men are good friends to cultivate, for rarely is there one who will not scatter a handful of grain from the horses nosebagA

A MAD MoNARcH's FREAK.

6ing of Bavaria Found Pleasure In
 Frightening Horses to Death.
 "At the time the malady of Ludwig IT., the mad king of Bavaria. was at it's worst, he gave orders that thirty of his finest horses should be put in the best condition possible for a race" writes Prof. J. H. Gore in the Ladies' Home Journal. When the re Dort came that no further improvement could be made, he had them brought into an open field where every conceivable form of noise-making device had been stationed. The horses were tied to posts and the king from an elevated stand gave the signal that started the flare of trumpets, the booming of can non, the firing of bombs and other out Iandish noises. The horses reared plunged, struggled to get free and. fin ally, breaking loose, started in the widest gallops from this bedlam. But toward whatever corner of the field they fled they were stopped by noises just as terrifying and sent to another quarter to be frightened again and again, When the horses became too tired to run well the king found the spectacle uninteresting and ordered the orgy to cease. By this cruel freak the royal stables lost a number of their most valuable animals"

r-ont,in ulth ths boys.

An old veteran of the civil war, Col Gunson, irascible in his manner put generous at heart, was much annoyed bv the boys of the neighborhoed, who nersisted in climbing upon ard run ming over the flat roof of his barn. all unpretending structure sloping toward the alley, and easily scaled from the asnbarrel.
 The colonel threatened and scolded but to no purpose. He strung barbed wire along the edge of the barn, but the boys wrapped old clothes around it and climbed over it. He chained " savage dog on the roof and tEe poys made friends with the animal and stole it.
 In desperation. he smeared tar all over the roof one day, and the boys were temporarily balked, but before they had decided upon plan for cir cumventing the colonel 1t ehaneed that a teamster. in driving through the al ley one hot afternoon, lighted his pipe and carelessly threw the match up on the top of the barn. with the result that the roof was ablaze in an ln- stant.
 The boys happened to be playing in the alley. Quick a a flash they sprang to the rescue. With buckets of water brought from horse trough in the back yard across tine alley they clam bered up to the edge of the roof, and fought the flames so successfully that they put them out before the wood had time to catch fire.
 Boys" exclaimed Col Gunson, who arrived on the scene in time to witness the triumph of the impromptu fire brig ade, and was full of generous enthu- siasm, tomorrow I shall cover what's left of the tar with sand, strengthen the supports of the roof and you may play on it all you want to hereafter. You've got the right stuff in yout'
 The colonel was as good as his word. but VIII 1t be believed d?-such Is the peryersity of boy nature-that after he had turned that roof over to them for a playground, not a boy in the neighborhood ever set foot upon it again.
