been frequently recorded that he was the
man who, having lost 100000. at Madame
Barucci's one night, paid up without moving
muscle or turning a hair. This sort of
thing, however, could not go on forever.
The Count de Casa Miranda soon found
himself at low tide. He was practically
stranded in Paris, of which he had been one
of the golden youth. In these trying cir
cumstances the count remembered that he
could write, SO he took to journalism and
made good living out of it. The late Au-
relien Scholl perpetrated one of his notori-
Gus puns over the metamorphosis of the
dandy hidalgo into a brilliant scribe of the
boulevards. Proofs that is to say, trials,
have corrected him. said the celebrated
wit of Tortoni's, who only died the other
day, and he is now correcting proofs him
self" Better days dawned for the journals
tic count when Alfonso XII assembled the
Spanish throne. He called to Madrid,
and became secretary to Senior Canovas del
Castillo. During the Franco-German war
the Count de Casa Miranda had correspond
ed for Spanish papers, and being marked
by Prince Bismarck he was arrested at
Versailles and sent to Mayence, where he
underwent a term of Imprisonment, and
succeeded in escaping after a time. The
count wrote a good deal for the Gaulois,
and also for the Epoca of Madrid. The an
nouncement of his death has been communi-
Gated to the Countess de Casa Miranda by
her stepdaughter, who is now at Cambo,
where she nursed her father in his last H.
ness.

RoME's HAUNTED HOUSE.
That Ghosts Walk in Viale
Della Regina.

Rome Correspondence of London Chronicle
Much excitement has been aroused in
Rome during the last few days over an al
gina, inhabited for years past by an old
couple and their sons. Nothing abnormal
occurred until the present week, when
heavy thuds began to proceed from the
walls of the room, as though struck by In
visible hands Then ornaments were dashed
with great force from their brackets on
to the floor, and smashed into fragments
1t is said In the newspapers that the
youngest son, aged fifteen, had scarcely re-
tired to rest last night when he was dragged
by the feet round the room by these I'M
seen influences, which afterward extended
their plan of operations to the FORTRESS
lodge. hurting a flat-iron that lay on the
bed at the unfortunate womans head, in
the presence of several friends. Two car
abineers attracted to the house by the cries
of the inmates proceeded to the boys bed

upon touching which they received Sc

suffering from the effects.
The phenomena then ceased for the night:
but today the house has been visited by
hundreds and such as gained admission

dance of candles.q while hat-irons. fresh
figs, oil cans. and pepper boxes played at

Ticklishness.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
'Why is II that one person is ticklish and
another isn't?" asked a man who is fond of
the unusual thing. 81 have often wondered
why men were differently constituted In
this way, and have never seen any salts
factory answer up to this time. Some men
cannot stand to be- touched in the side
Others cannot stand to be touched on the
knees. They steal sugar according to
the nursery legend. and will simply have a
fit If you should scrape the ends of your
fingers over their knees. The bottom of the
foot and the palm Of the hand are tender
places with other people On the other
hand there are men who are not at all tick
lish. / have seen tests made with straws
about the ears and neck without any sort
of disturbance. The subjects. too were
reasonably sensitive. l cannot say that
they were not thin-skinned to some extent.
for I know many Of them were. But thew
were not ticklish. AS a rule the man whose
skin is thin is the tickltsh man. but there
are the usual exceptions to this rule I
suppose it Is matter involving the ner-
yous constitution, an d II persons are un-
usually ticklish 1 guess 1t is due to the fact
that the sense of touch is more keenly de-
veloped at the particular parts of the body
which are peculiarly sensitive. I can ac-
count for the vast difference in persons in
this respect in no other way. 1t Is simply
a question of highly developed sense of
touch"

TITLED DOMESTICS.
Persons With Royal Blood Are Not All
Idlers.
From the London Express.

From the London Express.
The romantic story of Princess Helene
Zulukidse, who is working as a bricklay-
er's assistant in Odessa, is by no means an
uncommon one. correspondent who has
studied the curious phases Of life In east
ern and central Europe reveals some aston
ishing facts.
1.-The fact that a princess should be COM
PEELED to seek such livelihood" she
writes, els by no means so startling an oc-
currence as might be supposed In many
parts of the continent the fathers title is
inherited by all his children. and there are
several villages in Austria, Poland and
Russia in which all the peasants are legit-
imately descended from some princely an
cestor. They are legally described as
princes in all official documents, and on
leaving their homes many Of these peasant
princes find themselves sadly hampered by
the burden Of high-sounding title.
''They cannot get rid OF the titles, how
ever. as they are purely personal Ones and
not marketable commodities, like 80 many
in Italy and Portugal, and by the police
without showing his papers, in which his
rank. age and occupation are stated. Need
less to say. few people are willing to en-
gage a workman of legally far higher rank
hardship came to my personal knowledge
recently. The newly married French wire
of wealthy Russian noble was about to
engage Russian maid at st. Petersburg,
when, on seeing the papers, she discov-
cred that the girl was princess ana
member Of a weil-known but ruined fam
lily.
1.-The girl had been vainly seeking EN-,
ployment for months, but the lady declined
to engage her.
ION reaching her country seat however,
the lady discovered. to her Amusement,
that the housekeeper was countess the
henwife a princess while the Iarm pallln;
blacksmith and coachman were possessed
Of titles equally imposing: AS their homes
were situated in the vicinity OF my friends
estate, their real social position as little
rmers and peasants was well known.
Had they sought employment elsewhere,
however, they would, in all probability. like
the Princess Zulukidse. have quickly sunk
to the lowest grade Of society"

INGENIOUS FLIM-FLAM.
A Scheme That Has Puzzled Even the
Up-to-Date Barkeeper.
he New Orleans Times-Democrat.

From the New Orleans Times Democrat
ne thing In the way of flim-fiam now
ana the real thing" said an old detective,
is away ahead of any of the old tricks
know anything about. 1t has been worked
but once in New Orleans. as far as know
and II it has ever been worked in any other
place do not know anything about it. The
business of finding a pocket book. Spring
ing the pigeon, as It is called: the lock
trick, which, by the way is one of the
snoothest of the whole list and all the
others are cheap and clumsy In comparison
with the clever scheme that was worked on
downtown barkeeper a few evenings ago
1t shows one thing, and that is that the
criminal classes are quite as active mem
tally and otherwise as men who are en-
gagged In the decent callngs Of life They
are probably more active mentally than the
men who are ground into narrow grooves
because of ceaseless toiling in an effort to
Keep the wolf away. The new flim-fam
scheme is wonderfully simple and is
worked with paper money A 81 and a IS
Dill are needed. OF course, bills of higher
denomination could be used, but the two
men who worked the trick here used the
bills of the first DENOMINATIONS 81 and a
70 Dill. 1t Is worked in this way: One of the
men will write in thin lettering on the
pack of the s. bill what is supposed to be
list of his laundry. For instance in this
way: One shirt, two collars two pairs of
cuffs. He will go into a saloon when there
is a rush on in order to further minimize
the possibilities of the barkeeper's detecting
the scribbllng on the bill, and will call for
a drink.
The money is put in the drawer. the man
gets his drink and his change and walks
out Directly his partner walks in, calls
for glass of beer and tenders a 81 bill in
payment. The barkeeper throws out 95
cents in change. You made a mistake old
man. the purchaser will say; I gave YOU a
s. bill A polite wrangle follows. The fell
low is insistent. says he only had one piece
of money, and that a 81 bill, and he re-
members to have jotted down a list of his
laundry on the back of it. He calls for the
boss, tells him of the dispute, and asks him
to if he has a s. bill with zone shirt
two collars two pairs cuffs written on it
