Al One Time His Emotion So Great

That a Glass of \Vine \Vas Handed

Him—Unkindly Stated That the '

Russians are Getting “Tear .

Copyright, 1893, by the United Press.)

PARIS, Oct. 19.—-Tha Russian fetes are a
plentiful source of amusement: for foreign-
ers. It has been humorously suggested
by Anglo-Saxon onlookers that Admiral
Avelan was selected to sit France on ac~
countof his emotional endowments and
his singular facility of bringing tears to
his eyes.

According to French newspapers, Ad-
miral Avelau, on one day‘ in Toulon was
eight times profoundly touched and five
times visibly moved, besides having sev-
eral fits of uncontrollable sobbing. One
emotional correspondent describes himself
as moved almost to tears four times in the
course of the morning, while he frequently
noticed that among the people around him
every eye was humid.

The manual of. Franco-Russian con-
versation hawked about the streets of
Toulon and Paris leaves no contingency
icglected as regards expressions of patriot-
ism or passion. It contains ten formulas.
of invitations to alcoholic drinks of vari-
ous kinds.

The Soleil, describing Admiral Avelan’s
reception at the town hall in Toulon,
says: “The admiral showed such emotion
that the mayor invited him into a private
cabinet and handed him a glass of cham-
pugne. The admiral, still trembling
with emotion, spilled a few drops of the
wine, whereupon Madame Adam, who
happened to be present, cited the
French proverb that to spill wine
when about to drink . was a. sign
Of good luck and a plentiful harvest,
and she therefore hailed the accident with
joy. Admiral Avelan pressed Madame
Adam’s hand, unable to speak, while two
great tears trickled down his face and
dropped upon his uniform.”

The papers are full of such stuff, and in
the general excitement little notice is taken
of the deaths of Marshal MacMa‘hon and
M. Gunod, which, occurring at any other
time, would have plunged the whole nation
into grief as effusive as in the present
inaudulin joy. \

The call for national subscriptions to
defray the expenses of the Russian fetes
has not been responded to with any special
enthusiasm. It is stated that only about
200,000 francs, in the aggregate, has been
subscribed, although the hat has been
shaken and passed around unceasingly.
One paper went so far as gravely to pro—
pose that the quarterly rents that fell due
on the day of the arrival of the Russians
at Toulon, be remitted throughout France
as a token of the country’s joy and grati-
tude. This was not without a. suggestion
that mpst of the money thus freed be ex—
pended in feeting “our dear allies.”

It is unkindly stated that the Russian
officers themselVes are not particularly en—
thusiastic over the celebration, and are
tired of feasting and eternally hearing the
Marseillaise and the Russian hymn. They
would like Paris well enough to amuse
themselves in their own way, but it is
different when they are there on show
duty.

The city is still en fete, and the crowds
that filled the streets yesterday have been
augmented to-day by a steady influx of
visitors from all parts of the country.
The streets are crowded with people in
holiday costumes, and everywhere the
greatest gayety prevails. _

Admiral Avelan and his staff occupied
the forenoon in making official visits.
Their meeting with Gen. Loizillon, minis-
ter of war, was especially cordial.

Everywhere the Russians went they
were the recipients of hearty cheers from
the well dressed crowds on the streets.

Negotiations are on foot, through Ad-
miral Avalon, with the 'view of having the
Grand Duke Alexis go to Toulon to re-
ceive President Carnot officially on the
occasion of the president’s visit to the Rus-
sian fleet on Oct. 27.

Now or “Gun?
Oil the wall of an ancient minster,
In a. rare old English town,
From one of its outer towers
A dial looketh down.
Whereon appears a legend.
And thousands of passing men
Have read in the centuries olden
Its warning—“Now or When?"

Still dwellers within the city,
And strangers from lands afar,
As they con the striking motto,
Fore‘cr exhorted are-—
Do it mom or noon or even—-
By those words none fail to ken
The present is yours; that only
Is certain—“Now or When?"

That others who ne'er in person
May the dial quaint behold
Shall yet its message ponder:
Its story here is told. .
Host thou ought thou wouldst accomplish
By deed or voice or pen?
This moment is thine; no other
Art thou promised—“Now or When2"

An Undiscouraged Farmer.

I met a jolly farmer in a lovely western vale,

A man of fertile fancy that was never known
to fail,

Who, when I told of hailstones seven ounces
full in weight,

Said he had seen twelve-ounce ones back in
eighteen sixtyvcight.

And when I spoke of fish I’d caught, in certain
foreign rills,

That measured twenty-seven feet from narra-
tive to gills,

He said, with brow unrufiied and a. manner
frank and free,

That he had caught them twice as long in
eighteen sixty-three.

And then I spoke of having met a. fellow in Ber
lin

Whose mouth was large enough to get three
large potatoes in;

.Whereupon he wished Jim Hankinson-his
cousin—was alive;

He‘d seen him hold six apples in his mouth in
sixty-five

It seemed to make no odds to him how I’d ex-
aggerate:

He’d always go one better; soIthought that
I’d narrate

How with an ass’s jawbone did the mighty
Samson slay -

Ten thousand of his foemen—just to see what
he would say.

He listened most intently, with an ever-broad-
ening smile,

\As though he were a person that had never
heard of guile;

And, when I’d done, he told me that he knew
my tale was true,

For Samson’s self had told it him in eighteen
sixty-two.

Love and Hard Times.

I said: “The times are hard. and bread is dear
when work is not,

And sad, indeed, is poverty. and lonely is its
lot;

And faint the gleam of silver is, and far the
gloom of gold;

The chilly winds are blowing. but the hearth at
home is cold.”

Then one climbed up and twlncd her arms—her
little arms, so white!
Around my neck. and softly said:

to-night!”
And as she cuddled close to me—the Winsome
little witch !—
The times were hard no longer, for her love had
made me rich!
—Frank L. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution.

The Dinner Horn.

Ain‘t I glad that I wuz born? :

Now, I tell y’ what it is,
Angels’ harps don’t stand a. Show
When that horn begins to blow.

Don't I quit the pesky plow
Kind 0’ mighty suddin, now,

' When I hear the welcome sound
Echoin’ from the woods around!

Gosh! them burstin' ’taters sweet,
J es’ like warmed-up snow to eat!
And them fritters thick and brown—

Hi, thar, boys! quit droppln' corn—

A Philosopher and His Family.
His mind was in a perpetual spasm
About the cause of protoplasm,

And w’en ’twas caused he longed to know
Jest what it was that made it grow.

He longed to know just what it was,

The cause behind the primal cause.

Just what was Chaos made of. and
Upon what ground did Chaos stand?
He wished to know what 1!. could be
When in the shape of nebulae.

And what was nature’s underpinning
‘Fore it began in the beginning?

He longed to know how it began,

The much-debated Fall of Man,

What language Eden’s 01d snake talked?
And if upon its tell it worked?

And if we’d landed high an' dry

Had Eve’s old apple hung too highl

Ho tried to find some one to tell

Of the “lost tribes of Israel."

And ’twas the problem of his life

To find out who was old Cain’s wife.
And just how much the world would gain
Had Abel lived, instead of Cain.

But his coarse neighbors wished to know
How his poor old wife could sew

Enough to buy him clothes and food

And feed seven children—hungry brood.

' They were dull-minded creatures, so
This simple thing they longed to know.
—Sam Walter Foss. in Boston Globe.

Little Demand Now for Colombian
'HalfLDollai-s and Isabella Quarters.

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-—About 500,000 Col—
umbian half-dollars are stored in the
vaults of the sub-treasury here awaiting
orders for their disposition from‘Washing-
ton, as the public does not seem particu-
larly anxious to acquire possession of
them. 1

Up to a recent date they were mar-
keted at a dollar each by the fair authori-
ties, but just prior to Chicago day they
could be had for that sum with a hand-
some badge attachment thrown in.

There have been rumors of the ‘with-
drawal of the coins now stored by the
government, but nothing definite is
known.

Those who have already bought souve-
nir coins seem to hold to their treasures
closely. Hardly any of the coins came
back to the subtreasury, in the ordinary
course of business. It is possible, how-
ever, that some may have found their way
into the banks and been there exchanged
for the ordinary legal half-dollar.

Beside the Colombian hall-dollars there
are a good many Isabella quarters yet 1y-
ing untouched in Uncle Sam’s depository.
They are not bulky, however, and it is
probable that whatever may be done with
the souvenir coins the Isabella quarters
will be allowed to remain in the office.
