W* uy aiul peconquest of

f! France by the

'f. : power of his sim-

' J pie personality A were incidenta

unparalleled In the history of the world. The nations allied apainat him were ready to commit any crime In order to rid the earth of his presence, and the rulers of his own people hated

him with the vindictive Intensity of weak and cowardly rivals. Living, he was a specter present at all the royal banquets of Europe. Though cooped up In faruff Elba, he still haunted the palaces of his imperial foes, more dreaded than an army with banners England declared that he must to Isolated from the civilized world upon the barren, lomtly rock of St Helena. while the French Bourbons wanted to turn him over to the mercy of hired asaaaeins and lie done with it. All this Napoleon well knew. Reports tvere also brought to him at Elba by his sister I’ltuline nnd by the agents of his personal cause remaining in France that the Bourbon king, whom the bayonets of the allies had foist.d upon the throne, was drawing upon his reign the hatnd of the French people; that the republicans were on the point of revolt, and that the old soldiers of the empire remembered the absent man of destiny with undisguised admiration and regret. In tlte crisis ho decided toes cape from Elba and return to hi* throne with no following but his bodyguard, without an elaborate conspiracy or any attempt to summon force to his aid. The knowledge that he would escape was Impart.al to a few, but the details of his plans remained ha-ked in his own breast On the night of Feb 9®, I'H. the Princess* Pauline gave a banquet at Eiiia, nnd Xn|K>leon chatted freely until a late hour, then retind to his chamber with two of his intimate counselors, Bertrand and Uruot. “We leave the island tomorrow,’’said he when they were alone. He then commnnd.d that all vessels in the harbor should be seized during the night, and the guard embarked In the morning. At that moment the British naval officers were preparing a (lis t to patrol the sea around Ellin, nnd Talleyrand was cons pi r lug with Austria to have the terrible prisoner abducted nnd carried to some distant land whence return would tie Impossible. Napoleon’s private brig, the Inconstant, nnd three small merchant vessels were filled with the guard, who knew nothing of the enterprise la-fore them. When the little Ilotllla was out of sight of land. Napoleon called ntout him the slender laalyguard which he had selected to save him on the landing front la-ing collared by the gendarmes and said to them, 1 We are going to France; we are going to Paris ” The soldiers shouted: “Vivo la France! Ylve leinpereur!” That

was the first test

The day following tills announcement, when hundnsls wen* in the dangerous secret, a French man-of-war was sighted liearing down on the meager flotilla. Napoleon ordered his lajdygtutrd. the Poland ers and grenadiers to doff their hats and crouch behind the ship's bulwarks out of sight. He remained beside the commander of tin* Inconstant, nnd when ’ho stranger drew near enough the captains of the two vessels exchanged news through their speaking trumpets. The last question of the Bourbon captain was after the health of the Imperial prisoner of K.llia. At this Napoleon snatched the trumpet front Its owner and called out, ‘‘He is marveloush

well.”

The next day a 74 gun ship was sighted, and s<ime of Napoleon's aealous followers wan Us 1 to draw her into ambush nnd seize her for future use. This temptation the emperor frowned upon at onee. His plan was fixed. He would not swerve from It. The landing of Napoleon upon a lonely beach In the gulf of Juan was simple enough and devoid of thrilling incident Before embarking he ordered the guard to replace the cockades of Elba In their caps by the tricolor, which they had retained upon their persons its relics since the ban ishment. He Also Indited a short appea to the garrison soldiers In the departments through which he was to pass. It was In the name of the guard, not of the emperor. and ran: ’*Soldiers, the*drums are la-ating to arms. We are on the march. Come and join us—join your emperor and our eagles. You an* summoned to the honor of setting the lirst example. March with us to win hack the throne, the palln ilium of our rights.” A bivouac was laid near Cannes, and the peasantry was startled with the np paritlon of the emperor again In France. One of them, a veteran of the wars, inisted upon la-ing taken Into the service of his old general. All this w.is apparently child's play, a holiday parade to end In a IxitiAiastic show of vab i-y.nd reciiptuiv of the whole party. There was the dethroned and dis-

such—who. Inspired with an old gttiagc against the base, cruel, tyrannical usurper, as he was so frequently defined, would avenge themselves and France by one unerring rifle shot? Two hundred thousand Bourbon bayonets hedged the road to Baris when Napoleon took uphis march by way of Grenoble. On the route the people arose and overwhelmed him with demonstrations of Joy and affection. The police wen* cowed by these manifestation*, the Bourbon officers overwhelmed. The peasantry gathering In million* would have been eager to escort him to Paris and place him on the throne by sheer physical force, but he dismissed them, and when they pointed out the strong garrisons and form Idahle arrays of tnxiiis on the way he only said: "Those whom I meet will range themselves on my side. The more numerous they may be the more will my success be assured ” The appmaches to Grenoble through which the party must pass were guarded by #, 000 soldiers led by a Bourbon partisan. General Marchand. The troops were posted In a defile, with a mountain and lake on either flank. Cheered by the huzzahs of the peasant throng gathered hy the roadside shouting, ‘-Vive Beinpereur!” Na poleon tr*itt«*d calmly to within 10o paces of the bayonets forming a wall In front of him, dismounted, and, with his arms erossed upon his breast In token of submission to whatever fate the soldiery should mete out to him. advanced alone upon the ready rifli*s of the troop*. He stopped In front of those bronzed hen a** and stood there as the deification of their beloved France. The commander ordered them to fire, and ev cry rifle butt leaped firmly to the shoulder The man of desfiny again advanced, tin covering his breast as he did so. until he stixal at the muzzles of the pieces. Then hy word of mouth, through the soldiers In front of him, he nddn-ssed the armies of France: "Soldiers, if there be one among you who would kill his emperor, let hint do It. Here I am ” Then* was a brief and deathly silence A musket dropped muzzle downward, and that was a signal for thousands to fallow. A voice in the ranks, shaking with emo tlon, cried out, “Vive 1’etnperjur!” and in an instant the army became a mob. mingling with the peasantry and greeting Napoh-oti as a monarch reston-d To one veteran of Italy and Egypt Napoleon said. “How could you have the heart to nim a musket at your little corporal V For an answer the old man sounded the ramrod of his piece on the bottom of the barn-1 to show that it was empty and said signifi cantly, ‘’The rest are the same.” The entry to the city of Grenoble was made with the armed battalions of its gar rison marching aa escort to the grenadiers of KIIml Napoleon nddn-ssed the soldiers, peasants and townspeople who thronged about him and promised a restoration of 1 their full rights.

On quitting Grenoble Napoleon dismissed his volunteer escort nnd advanced as la-fore with the little bodyguard of Elba. The s«-cno8 were repeated at every army post. The Bourbons vainly attempt<■*1 to suppress the astounding tidings at Baris. Napoleon'* known adherents were arrested by wholesale. At Lyons regular soldiers and national guardsmen number ing tens of thousands were concentrated with orders to crush Napoleon. Wine was distributed freely In the name of the Bour bon lauds XVIII, but the soldiery onlygot merry on it, and In their cups filled the streets with erics of "Long live the little cori>oml!” Even tha per.tonal Iwdyguard of the commandant, composed of gentlemen sworn to lx- true to him, gave way to the enthusiasm and joined Napoleon's followers. The guards at the bridges abandoned their posts to a man; those stationed on the t-tn-et liarrieades tore away those ob structions and hailed the dethroned etnpemr as he r*xh* along in triumph. By the time Napoleon hud {Missed Lyons the whole of France was in an uproar Towns nnd cities vied with one another in their zeal to pronounce for the man of destiny.

We know of one instance where a gentleman, some years ago, was erecting a large residence by the day and did not have any idea when ho commenced what it was likely to cost, nnd long before the structure was completed he had paid out over $80,000 and was so disgusted with it that he would not keep any further account, and today this house, which cost so much money, could be duplicated for $10,000. This is what we call bad management. However, as times are at present, there is likely to be but very little of such. It is reasonable to suppose that any one without building experience who undertakes the erection of a building In this way—unless there are special circumstances governing the case—will have to pay for the knowledge he will gain. A business man wants to know, after his ideas are put into a tangible form, how much all thi^ will cost In dollars and

English Miner Terribly Assaulted by a

Crowd of striker*.

Mt Pleasant, Pa., Aug. $6.—Peter Finnstone, an English miner, was attacked yesterday by a crowd of striking Slavs, knocked down with a club and repeatedly kicked. Before leaving their victim one of them cut the unconscious Englishman across the head and through the nose. Another striker almost severed the left ear, barely missing the jugular vein. The terrible kicks Finnstone received over the heart will probably

cause his death.

Doings In Congress. Washington, Aug. 25.—The Democratic senators gave up all hope of making speeches or passing the bill to correct the alcohol schedule, and under agreement with Republicans passed a few unimportant bills and confirmed some nominations to which there were no objections. Resolution for adjournment Tuesday was adopted, as also by the house, the latter body did nothing important. Both adjourned until Monday. .

Monmouth, Ills.. Aug. 25.—Considerable excitement has been created in this vicinity by the finding of an extraordinarily large vein of coal six miles from this city. While boring for water the workmen passed through rook at a depth of 100 feet and then into the coal vein, finding a nek bottom below and making it very practicable to mine. Mrmplil* Tax SchiiiImI Grows Worse. Memphis, Aug. 25.—The deeper the grand jury probes the worse the delinquent tax scandal grows. Indictments have been returned against 24 of the most prominent cotton firms in the city charging them with failure to pay taxes and doing business without a license. The amount of revenue out of which the state and county have Ix-en defrauded now amounts to more than $2,000,000. Contention In Suasion Four San Francisco, Aug. 24.—When darkness dosed upon the fourth day of the Democratic state convention a platform had lteen adopted, a state committee appoiuted, and a candidate for governor nominated in the person of Congressman Rudd, but nothing more. At the night session the ticket was completed. Arrented For Murder and Robbery. Pomeroy, O., Aug. 25.—Hiram Jones of Thomasville, (ia., was arrested lien* yesterday on the charge of murdering and robbing of $'<1,000 an old man of Thomasville last February. Jones came here iii .Tutu* and married Miss Ella Dawson, a respectable young lady. He is reported to have wives elsewhere. I'henouiPiml Sc»o Voyttgr. New Yolk.

And no one who starts out with the intention of spending $4,000 in the erection of adwclltngand winds up with three times that amount will 1*--likely to think ho has used much judg ment nnd will try to shift the blame on some one else.

Olii Tillies, Old Friends, OKI Love. There are no days like the good old days— The days when we were youthful; When humankind were pure of mind And speech and deeds were truthful; Before a love for sordid gold Became man's ruling passion. And before each dame and maid became Slaves to tno tyrant fashion. There are no girls like the good old girls— Against the world I'd stake ’em— As buxom and smart and clean of heart As the Lord knew how to make 'em. They were rich in spirit and common sense. A piety all xupporlin. They could Lake and brew and bad taught school, too. And they made the likeliest courtin. There are no txjys like the good old boys When we were boys together; When the grass was sweet to the brown hare

feet

That dimpled the laughing heather; When the pewee Ming to the summer dawn

Of the bee in the billowy clover.

Or down by the mill the whipjioorwill

Echoed iris night song over.

There is no love like the good old love—

The love that mother gave us.

We are old, old men, yet we pine again For that precious grace—(dud save us. 8o we dream and dream of the good old times, And our hearts grow tenderer, fonder. As those dear old dreams bring soothing

The patter of little feet.

The sound oi a door that is opened

And voices soft and sweet,

A whisper and then a silence, \et I know hy tiieir merry eyes

Thc-.V are plotting and planning together

To take me by surprise.

A sudden rusli from the stairway,

A sudden raid from the hall.

By three doors left unguarded

They enter my castle w^ll.

They climb up into my turret. O'er the arms and back of my chair.

If 1 try to escape, they surround me—

They seem to be everywhere. They almost devour me with kisses. Their arms about me entwine, Till 1 think of the bishop of Bingen in hU mouse tower on the Khiue.

And will m»t let you depart.
