A few days ago. a young man, a stud, ent, and, to be precise, a son of the De partment of Tarnet-Garoiinc, born at ilontaubin, having the good looks and accent peculiar to that locality, entered tho omnibus running from Madcleln to the Bastille, In Paris. At the station of the Passage do 1 Opera a passenger with a high color.and carefully dressed, uneasy In the stylish garments he wore for tho llrst tlme,scat ed himself beside tho student. Glittering charms hung from his watch chain, and ho had on his arm a handsome and grave young glil, whom he installed In front of him upon tho last seat remaining vacant. The passenger, so brand new In ap pearance, did not seem to pay any at tention to the trip, but applied himself Bolcly to staring at the other passongors striving to niaku their acquaintance or recognize them, Atter a repeated ex amination uf everybody In the omni bus, he suMcnly turned toward his neighbor, and slapping him on the kneo with his broad, firm hand, exclaimed: "It's nstonlshlng how well I like you!" liven though ono Is from Montaubln, and has brought from his crovince an opinion in regard lo Paris that prevents him from being amazed at anythlng.onu cannot be slapped on the knee and spoken to In this way without giving a atart. "i don't understand," said the stud ent. "Tell him, girl," resumed the man with the charms, addressing his daugh ter, "tell him I liko him, and perhaps ho will un Icrstand better." Tho young girl blushed, hung her head, confused, supplicating, and tho student then perceived that she was very pretty. "How can I serve you?" he demand ed In a softened voice of his neighbor. "All right, I'll explain," said the man with the new garments. "To-morrow night I have a house-warming. I said to myself as soon as I saw you that you should be there. Ob, no ceremony with me, you needn't come alone if you're afraid, A young man so eomme Uaut can havo only agreeable friends. Select half a dozen of them and bring them with you. It's agreed upon, isn't It? Ilcrii's my card." The young man was greatly embar, rassedj every eye was fixed upon him The people in tlie omnibus laughed and whispered, I he only way to escape from tho dilemma was to accept tho card and get out. Onr hero of Montau bln did not wait for the vehicle to stop, bnt leaped from the omnibus. That evening at the table d'hote In I the Latin quarter, the yomig student re lated his adventure, and displayed the card he had received. ' Let's go I" "No I we won't." Thev wrannled over ilm Oil DY ForP matter for an hour, and .it last conced ed that the next night seven of them, In evening costume, should go to the ad. dress given. It was not In a common stret. The house had an appearance of a chateau, Through a magnificent Iron gate they caught a glimpse of the lawn of graveled walks. Our young friends feared they had made a mistake entered timidly. A lackey In grand Hvcry Informed tllcm that It was tho right house, and, after having conducted them -up the white marble steps, Introduced them in to a salon ablaze with light, balmy with rare flowers. "Complctel" cried the host, on per ceiving his acquaintance of the omnibus and his six companions, "I was cer tain you would come, youth is not dis trustful. Now you are here, you won't get away easily." "There's my mother, a good old lady, who has had her day; there Is my wife who Is now having her's; there's my daughter, whoso day has yet to come, A fine family, are they not? and they don't turn up their noses at pleasure, cither." "It's singular," added the master of tha house, "that though I sent out at least three hundred Invitations you are tile first to arrive. But It is not yet nine o'clock. They will come they will come. Meanwhile, will you take a little refreshment?' They warmed up slightly while re freshing themselves. The young men found tho mansion 'delightful, the re freshments of the best. While they were sampling the lunch several persons arrived; men of respectable appearance, and ladles who could not but he respect ed. When dancing was proposed It was Imperative to Invito those sorcer esses; tho seven young men were tha sole persons who really could dance. There was but ono young and fresh face, that of the daughter of the house. She smiled with a sort of sadness that Increased minute by minute. "Poor young men," she seemed to say, "they have fallen Into the trapl Others would not have allowed them selves to be caught by It," They danced until midnight. The three hundred Invitations had produced only fifty guests. The punch was strong, the danccuscs were strong, energy was demanded tlie students and the hcioof the fete displayed It. At midnight, how ever, they wished to withdraw. The host barred the way. "Not If 1 know it 1" cried tho niastct of this elegant den. "Supper's ready; you must sup!" Tho supper was for three hundred .mouths; the hcoic Idea of attacking it 'with their small numbers speedily ex cited tlie courage of our young men The seven companions took their places In tho festal hall. They drank, they laughed. However, at ono o'clock, when the omnibuses stopped running, the guests again strove to withdraw. The old gen tleman and tho old ladles were per mltted to depart, but the arm of the host made a new barricade before the young men. "You shan't go," said he, In a louder voice than ho had yet used. ".Yon would be robbed on the way hornet You are fatigued; so am I; let's go to bed! Your chambers have been pre pared." At once, and In splto of appearances. our young friends stared at each other with a certain fright. Tho ambuscade was undeniable. What were they to do? Our rash heroes consulted each other. accepted wllh good grace, demanding only, before ascending to their apart' menis to sieep, permission to take a turn in tho garden and smoko a cigar. This favor was accorded them; tho jailer pushed his Irony so far as to oiler them some excellent Havana cigars, which they lighted with hypocritical gratitude. Once In the garden they ran to the gate. It was fastened. Impossible to awake the concierge ho was without doubt an accomplice in the proposed crime. They concluded they must make their escape with the same unanimity that they had concluded tho night before to go to the rendezvous. They, therefore, searched the garden for a tree that might help them to scale tho wall, They found one. It seemed to have been planted there expressly against the wall, with branches that stretched over into the street. They climbed It one by one, and af. tcrward let themselves slip down the wall. But, unfortunately, thrco ser geants do vlllc, who chanced to be on the spot, received the young men In their anus, refused to believe tho In credible story they stammered out, searched them, found very little money I upon them, were nevertheless suspici ous of them, and took the seven rash fellows to the station house. Next morning, when our sevon stud ents were taken before the commissary of police, they wero surprised to recog nize in that magistrate one of tho sup per guests, the husband. of one of the venerable, ladles. "ParWeut is it you, messieurs?" cried the commissary, laughing, "now did you happen to get into the station bouss?" They were then compelled to confess the suspicion, the terrors that had pre sided over the sca,Ung of the wall. Al most choked with merriment, tha com missary gave the following explanation: The Individual who had invited them 1 , to his hotuewarralng eolrte was an lion- ' est omnibus conductor wjy had just in , herited 2,000,000 francs tbat an uncle, j formerly a broker, bad made at the' I Bourse. "It Is not astonishing," added tha I commissary, addressing the young man who had introduced the rest; "it is not ) astonishing, therefore, that ho should glvo his lavl'.ittonj in an omnibus!" "Ah! if his daughter had not Jjocn so prottyj" responded tho bewildered son of Montauban, 'Parbleul ne wished to And a hus band for her!'! "Do you think he will retain any ani mosity ogalnst us?" "Ho vrlll laugh over tho affair with you." I know not If this story will termlnato with a marriage. It is possible. At any rate, the young man from Montau. ban now remembers that his father was a former chef of the perfecture of Tarn-ct-Garonnc chief cook and thinks that circumstance suillclent to warrant him In accepting as his father-in-law an omnibus conductor, who is twice a millionaire, and who Introduces people into his house by stratagem. SouthernJExposition. Special to the Carbon Advcate. Louisville, Oct. ,10 18S5. Before another quarter of a century rolls around, the school-boy when called upon to enumerate the great cities of the United States, will begin Chicago, New York, Louisville. In classifying this city as the 3rd city of tho Union twenty-five years hence, your corre spondent throws himself liable to have his judgment brought into question by some prophets who have, not enjoyed the experience I havo the past three months. Before the first of August I looked upon Louisville as a very good town, but only when one becomes ac quainted with the elements of work and natural advantages can he speak know ingly. Louisville Is familiarly known as the "Falls City," becauso of the great rapids or falls In the river here, which gives 3" feet of a head in a dls- tauco of 2 1-2 miles. This alono places her In a position which makes competi tion in manufacturing, for tho South especially, out of tlio question, and accounts for tho fact that there are now- over 1800 manufacturing concerns, great and small, lacotod hare, which glvo employment to 37,000 people. Again, If you tako Louisville as the center, and draw a circle every point of which is 300 miles distant from this city, you will Include over 11,000,000 people. This gives her a greater population within 330 miles tu draw from than any other city In the U, S., and accounts for the hundreds of thousands who annually attend thcSouthcrnKxposttlou, Thora are 33 papers published In Louisville; nine colleges and academies, Including nearly every denomination, aru located In this city. Last month she celebrated tho fact that this Is the largest tobacco market in the world, over 130,000 hogsheads of loaf tobacco, representing $10,000,000, has been marketed here the past twelve mouths. Eight hundred thousand dollars has been paid the government for tobacco stamps by factories in this city, and the liquor distillers havo contributed $S,2o0,000 toward the support of Uncle Sam during the same time. With these facts before lura the reader will understand why tho Southern EX' position is always a success when other similar institutions are always run at a loss, and he will not be surprised that tho management have announced already that on August 26th. 1886, the Southern Exposition will reopen, and that already a large amount of space for 18S0 has been taken by the exhibitors nowprcsent. The greatest activity among exhibitors now Is occasioned by tho near approach of the granting of awaffis by the judges and their selection. If you want to see the "best side out" of any exposition, at this particular time you can find everything lovely. Between some lead ing engine, thresher, binder, reaper, mower, and plow men, tho competition Is very close. The Avery Plow Company, which at New Orleans lost every award competed for, and sunk 1,000 in a bet with the Hall riow Co., arc doing all tbey can here to wlu, but fine carpets and rich paint don't make a plow or deceive a competent jury. Quite a number of new exhibits have been placed within the past few weeks and entered for competition. These exhibits only show In competition, and figure if they don't get the prize they won't be out as much as if they had been here tho wholo term. When an award is granted by the management of the Southern Exposition, you can depend upon it tbat there Is no waiting months and years before, the medal is received. The awards given at New Orleans have sever been issued, and never will, as the management is broke and havo no money to pay for the same.
