Krise, who is visiting bis daughter, Mrs, Jeff Brown, at Mii- roy, writes the Reporter thus : Milroy feels the paviey conditions of the times, as a hundred ar more men | from here were employed by the Stand- ard Steel Company, at Burnham, and nearly all of these are out of work. The working man’s train, which haul- ed over two hundred men from here and Reedsville to and from their work, has been discontinued for lack of pat. ronage The limestone quarries are working about half time, and with a reduced | force. The knitting factory is doing | about the same, At Burnham conditions are worse, | The pay roll which contained some five thousand names bave been reduc- ed to one thousand Many houses are empty and rents have taken a big | drop.

And the People Danced to Pay the Debts of Louis XIV. In 1712 lLouls XIV. favored the opera, then established in the first galle of the Palais Royal (there have been two), with a special mansion for the better accommodation of its ad- ministration, archives and rehearsals. This hotel is situated in the Rue Nieaise, The building was generally designated under the name of Maga- sla, whence the term Filles du Maga- gin (not de magasin), which was applied not only to the female choristers and supers, but to the female dancers them- selves. It so happened that the king forgot to pay his architects and works men. In order to satisfy them the Chevalier Boulllon conceived the idea of giving balls in the opera house, for whic idea he received an annual pension of 6,000 francs. He was pald, but the king's debtors were not, for, although the letters patent were granted somewhere about the sinning of 1713, not a single ball had given when the most mag- nificent of the Bourbon sovereigns de- scended to his grave.» One day shortly after his death d’Argenson, the then lieutenant of police, was talking to Louls' nephew, Philippe d'Orleans, the regent. “Mon- signore,” 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 peoplé must be paid, and then they'll to bellow.” “But how, monsignore?’ “Let's give the balls that were projected by Boull- lon.” Bo said, so done, and the people danced to pay hors XIV.s debts, according to Shadwell, people drank to fill Charles Il.'s coffers The ithiul m In 's service are not dull We drink to show our loyalty And make his coffers full London Saturday de h be heen Ceare as, king's most fa ibjects we Review A SERIOUS LAUGH.
