snmn Quaint Hotels.

The hotel that stands out the most prominently in my recollection Is one in IauiQue, where, even while you are sitting at the dining tables, vendors come in from the streets to sell you food. At this same hotel they have two charges for baths-s shilllngs If you Insist upon clean water and about 4 shIllngs if you are willing to take a second turn at the tub.
 Another instance of a quaint hotel is in the town of Africa, fin Peru. Here they are using at the present time the hull of an old American man-Ot-war, which was taken inland by a great tidal wave many years ago and has since been fitted up as hotel and Is In great demand.-London Answers.

Grants Graceful Act.

When General Grant was in Japan the emperor invited him to cross the imperial footbrIdge near the palace at Tokyo, across which none but those of royal blood had ever passed. General Grant accepted the invitation and walked beside the mikado until they reached the center Of the bridge Then he stopped, profoundly saluted the en- peror and said: Your majesty, I have come SO far to show you that am not insensible to the honor you would do me. but cannot violate your tradl. tons. Let us return the way we came" It was a graceful act, gracefully done, St Louis Globe-Democrat

In 1865 there went to Paris a young Belgian named De Groof, who was fully convinced that he had solved the problem of aerial flight He did not succeed in interesting French experts, but later ln England met with some encouragement Finally, in the pres epce of a large crowd De Groof made bis attempt His machine was attach ed to balloon, and after reaching a height of 4OOO feet he cut himself loose. The machine fell like a stone and crashed down upon the rough pavement of Robert street, Chelsea with a sickening thud. De Groof was dead.-New York Tribune.

the record OF Dix was good the Demo-
