An Explorers stratagem,

Sir Harry Johnston, the famous, ex-
plorer. once escaped from a very tight
corner in Africa by a queer stratagem.
AZ score or two of murderous natives
had surrounded his tent, Into which,
before rushing it. they sent an envoy.
The envoy was told the smallpox was
In the camp, and wretched Albino
was sent out as the awful example. In

THE ELYsElE PALACE.

Checkered Career of the White
House Of France.
The Elysee palace, situated in the
Rue Faubourg Saint Honore, Is cross
between a country house and a hotel.
It has had checkered career since its
erection In i718 and has harbored some
queer characters. Louis v. presented
1t to Nine, de Pompadour. Who knows
how many lettres de eachet went out
of the gates to imprison those who.
lampooned her? Under Louis XVI. 1t
was called the Elysee Bourbon.s Dur
ing the revolution 1t became national
property, was put up for sale, found no
purchaser and was turned into gov
eminent printing Office. During the
directoire there were gay doings In the
fine old rooms, and the merveilleuses
from sunset to sunrise. The rooms
were let to a syndicate who made a
large fortune out of the speculation.
Since then the palace has been occu-
pied By Murat, Napoleon l., Louis
Bonaparte and Queen Hortense, Alex
ander l. of Russia and the Due de
Berri. Afaer the revolution Of 1880 II
remained unoccupied until Louis Ma
poIeon made it his residence while he
was president of the republic. Nearly
all the subsequent presidents Of the
present republic have added to It. The
large glass awning seen from the Eau
bourg, called by the scoffers ''the mon
key palace was the work Of Carnot
His also is the large ballroom. The
left wing was built by Louis Napoleon
and Grevy added room overlooking
| the garden. None Of the presidents
seem to fancy its state bedroom, nor
do they write at the Louis XVI. table
