General Miles’ Opinion

Wasuincton, October 2.—At a recep- tion given to General Miles last night he is auoted by a local newspaper as remarking of the suffering of our troops in the field: “Those who say that these men sickened and died because they wished to, those who blame the soldiers and officers of our army for the disease and death that devas~ tated the camps and thinned the ranks of our army, those who asrert that our sol- diers suff>red through their own fault, in- sult a quarter of a million of the bravest men that ever carried arms beneath the sun. These men did not suffer and die because they liked it, and whoever says they did insults our army and the men who officered it. Itis an affronttoreason. I have nothing to say of the blame for the death of those brave men.”

Ayimer, Que, Oct. 2.—The town of Aylmer, besides baving been during three years the cradle of infancy of the noted singer, Madame Albani, is likely to pro~ duce anotber musical prodigy in the per- son of Mary Jane Mousseau. Incredible as it may appear, this young lady, who is but tour years of age, has already developed musical gifts which, because of her age, may be regarded as phenomessl Te daughter of poor parentage, her father being Silveo Mousseau, at one time & la- borer, already she has mastered all the leading ebords on the piano. Having demonstrated her wonderful, gifts about one vear ago, her father invested his last dollar in purchasing @ piano for this pro- digy. Now she is capable of repeating

STANDARD OF EXCELLENCE

Asa rule the mountaineer of Ken- tucky is not a gastronomic connoisseur, and the visitor at his table ig quite as likely to hear dried apples referred to as ‘‘fruit’’ as he isto find any other kind of fruit on the table. Occasionally, however, one of them is sufficiently for- tunate to get away from his fastnesses, and living temporarily down in the blue grass has an opportunity to acquire some Virtues not otherwise obtainable. It was such a one I caught up with one morning in June along the ridge of the Oumberlands.

‘I’m looking for a place,’’ I said after a few preliminaries, ‘‘where I can stop for a week or so while I look up some timber I have in this neighbor- hood. Do you know of any?”’

“There ain’t much uv that sort eround here,’ he replied, ‘‘exceptin you go to Mount Pleasant, an I reckon that’s too fer. But hol’ on,’’ he broke in with a sudden thought, ‘‘thar’s the Widder Tackett. She axed me yistidy to se@ Rome uv you folks at the mill and tell ’em she had a place to sleep and eat two er three men ef they wuzn’t too pertickler.’’

‘Is it a pretty good place?’ I in- quired thoughtlessly.

The young man’s face flushed.

‘*Well, I reckon,’’ he said with some emphasis. ‘‘She’s goin to be my moth- er-in-law come next September.’’

**Oh, I beg your pardon,’’ I bastened to explain. ‘I only asked to know if she had good eating. Some of that we get in private houses even in the cities, you know, is not the best in the world.”’

**Oities be derned,’’ he said witha fine feeling. ‘‘ Yer ain’t never tried the Widder Tackett’s pie yet, mister, an yer want to keep still till yer do. Ain’t nothin like it nowhere, no matter what kind uv a pie she sets afore yer. It’s all ne plusibus unum, an no mis- take. Why, I’m tellin you that I sot down to one uv her pies last week, dern ef I recomember what kind it wuz, ef Iever knowed, an I wuz eatin right into it like a hot shovel goin into a snow pile, an Bill Rogers acrost the table frum me called mea liar, an I never said a dern word to him tell I had plhm e’t my pie and got my teeth picked. Dern my buttons ef I did, colo- nel.’’

T uid not like to inquire further into the mystery of what happened to Mr. Rogers after the last taste of the pie was safely housed by my informant, but I made a fair guess and went on to see the Widow Tackett concerning |oard and lodging for one man for one week. — Washington Star.

STORY OF A HAT.

Revealing the Secret cf Its Two Trips Around a Table.

A number of literary men were at oné time gathered in a well known chop- house in New York. The conversation was of course brilliant, and the repartee sparkled with mirth and wit. During a lull in the talk the door slowly opened, and an old southern darky, grizzled with age, poked his head in and then slowly drew his body in afterhim. A waiter started to eject him, when one of the gentlemen cried:

‘*Wait a moment. Let’s see what the old boy wants.’’

The darky bobbed up to the table where this gentleman sat and held out his hat. Throwing a wink to his neigh- bors, the gentleman took the hat and, making a show of placing something into it, passed it on to the next man, who did likewise. The hat made a tour of the room, to the puzzled wonder of the darky. The last to receive it sol- emnly handed it back with a polite bow, saying:

‘*There, sir, don’t you think you have something to be thankful for?’’

The old darky looked solemnly around the company ard, mechanically taking the hat, he said:

‘*(cen'men, Ize indeed glad dat 1 got eben de hat back!’’

‘The reply was so thoroughly enjoyed by the company that tbe darky left the piace a rmuch richer man thin when he bad entered ** -—Uexcae Cite World.

The Cunning Fox.

The sagacity of the fox is most won- derfnl. It is related that he is tor- mented by fleas, and when the inflic- tion becomes unbearable he gathers a mouthful of moss and slowly walks backward into the nearest stream until ouly the mouth is left above the surface of the water. The fleas meantime take refuge on the moss, and when the fox is satisfied that they have all embarked he opens his mouth, and the moss drifts away, while the wily fox regains the bank, happy in freedom from his tor- mentors.—Exchange. .

A Good Show at the Academy.

The large audience at the Academy last evening enjoved a great show. “A Trip to Coontown” is certainly a mirth-making production. It is something everybody enjoysand there is nothing about it to offend the taste of the most exacting People laughed till they fairly cried last evening, and they did so because they could not help themselves. “A Trip to Coontown,’ is just what its name implies. The performers are genuinely colored, but many take them for the imitation. There is not a great deal to the plot— just enough to find room on which to hang a de- lightfal programme cf songs, dances, etc. The music is particularly fine. The visi- tors to the city doring the week can con- gratulace themselves on having this fine show to amuse them. Crowded housee will likely be the ruleall the week. An- other large audience is assured for this eveninig.— Halifax Chronicle.

THEY GAVE THE BALLS

In 1712 Louis XIV favored the Opera, then established in the first salle of the Palais Royal (there have been two). with a special mansion for the better accommodation of its administration, archives and rehearsals. This hotel is situated in the Rue Nicaise. The build-. ing was generally designated under the name of ‘‘Magasia,’’ whence the term ‘Filles du Magasin’’ (not ‘‘de maga- sin’’) subsequently not only to the fe- male choristers and supers, but the fe- male dancers themselves. It so happen- ed that the king forgot to pay his archi- tects and workmen, In order to satisfy them the Chevalier de Bouillon conceiv- ed the idea of giving balls in the opera house, for which idea he received an annual pension of 6,000 francs. He was paid, but the king’s debtors were not, for, although the letters patent were granted somewhere about the beginning of 1713, not a single ball bad been given when the most magnificent of the Bour- bon sovereigns descended to his grave.

One day, shortly after his death, d’Argenson, the then lieutenant of po- lice, was talking to Louis’ nephew, Philippe d’Orieans, the regent. ‘‘Mon- seigneur,’’ he said, ‘‘there are people who go about yelling that his majesty of blessed memory was a bankrupt and a thief. I’ll have them arrested and have them flung into some deep under- ground dungeon.”’ ‘‘You don’t know what you are talking about,’’ was the answer. ‘‘Those people must be paid, and then they’!I cease to bellow.’’ ‘‘But how, monseigneur?”’ ‘‘Let’s give the balls that were projected by Bouillon.”* So said, so done, and the people danced to pay Louis XIV’s debts, as, according to Shadwell, people drank to fill Uharles L's coffers:

The king s most faithful subjects we In 's service are not dull. We drink to show our loyalty And make his coffers full. Review.
