NAPOLEON Ar sr. HeLENA.
His Views on the Precautions Taken
TO Prevent HIS Encnpe.

to Prevent HIS EHcnpe.
One OF the extracts from Dr. O'Afea-
ra's ST. Helena diary in The Century
records .Napoleon's views on the pre-
cautions taken to prevent his escape.
He spoke anew about escaping and
said that II he was inclined to try il,
which he was not. there were 30
chances In 100 against his effecting ii.
But" said he, this jailer every week
imposes new and vexatious restrictions
upon me, just as II was in a place
where I had nothing to do but to step
into n boat and be away. When / was
at Elba, it was different. 1t is true
that while one lives there is a chance
of escape. Although ironed and chain
ed down, inclosed in a cell Of stone and
every human precautlon taken against
possibility OF It, still there is chance
of escape, and the only way to prevent
It Is to put me to death.
This is the only sure way. Let him
put me 10 death. and all uneasiness on
the part Of the European powers, Lord
Castlereagh himself and his govern
ment viii cease. No more expense
then; no more squadrons TO watch me
or poor soldiers, fatigued to death with
pickets and guards or harassed with
carrying burdens up those precipices'
am sure those poor devils have rea.
son to hate me and wish my death
They must, however, be conscious that
the fatiguing duties imposed upon
them are unnecessary and vexatious
as the sight Of the island must con
vince every one but a suspicious cog
llone that escape from it was nearly
impossible unless, as l have said be
fore, that while there is life there is
chance, if attempted.
where could 80 to, allowing that
} got out of the island? Every place
could arrive at would find enemies Il
seize me. This governors conduct vii
soon be known In England and Will no
procure him any credit there. Thos

unnecessary rigor with which l an
treated and their opinion of 1t. Th

PARIS EXPOSITION PRICES.

Vague reports of threatened extor-
ton on the part of Parisians to be
practiced on those who visit the Expo
sition have been current. Full confir-
nation has been found. A handbook
and guide issued by the Cyclists Tour
ing Club, OF Great Britain, an organi-
zation corresponding to the League OF
American Wheelmen, gives exact in
formation. Its list of Paris hotels gives
two price lists-one the ordinary rates
and the other the special prices which
are to be charged after April IA, when
the Exposition is opened. From this
list it appears that hotel whose or
binary rate is $3.50 a day now expects
81 a day, and another asks $50 instead
of S2.40. The lowest rate given is 81
a day for ordinary accommodations
The actual hotel rates are about 90 PEI
cent. in excess of the rates the hote
keepers have been won't to charge
These would indicate that a persor
can live in Paris during the Exposition
for about SO a day, allowing So for hi
meals. Most of the Americans IL
Paris have advised their friends not L
hurry to the Exposition. If the hote
keepers fail to receive the rush OF Wis
itors they expect, the rates in hotel
and restaurants will fall quickly. De
/ lay in visiting the Exposition is al
the more advantageous inasmuch a
the correspondent of the Tribune de
clares that the buildings are still un
finished, and a large proportion of tn
exhibits will not be in place for som
| weeks. At the Worlds Fair, in Chi
cago, 1t will be remembered that ther
was more to see in August than 4
June, and it will be so in Paris.-Chi

THE RI1rsH1NG BONNET.

A New York millinery house has had
an inquiry for "blushing bonnets." In
asmuch as It was the first inquiry of
the kind. and as they did not know
what under the blue canopy a blush
ing bonnet was. they instituted q care
ful search to find cne. The result is
interesting. even from a sordid COM
mercial standpoint. The "blushing
bonnet is known in London, and Il
may have had its origin there, though
a London authority thinks the credit
ought to 30 TO Paris. lt Is any kind
OF a bonnet with a little spring and
metal clasp hidden behind flowers, and

the bonnet is bent forward. with that

There are in Montana sapphires OF
beauty and value. but they have never
been as systematically worked as have
been the sapphires of the orient. True,
they are light in color, but they have
more brilllancy than the Asian sap
phlres and often exhibit dichorism, or
double color. under different lights.
The supposition that a sapphire should
be dark blue is possibly responsible for
the slowness of their acceptance IN the
market. but as a matter Of fact sap
phires are not Of necessity blue; they
are green. yellow. purple, white, and
when they are red we call them rubies,
for the ruby and sapphire are identical
