A Night of Fear.
BY GEOKQE n. cox.
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.
A fews days ago was"school children's
day admission 10 cm s," Every young
ster In the. city and for miles around,
whether they saw the Inside of a school
house or not, were present, black and
white alike, and If they didn't have the
necessary where-witha!, climbed the
fence, crawled under or over tho style
well they got there anyhow, and in good
shape. Onco Inside, the police forco
were helpless. Hundreds got on tho
roof and only the 'persuasive, -Influence
of the fixe department could bring tbem
dowu. They yelled "ruts" at the for
eigners, and pulled the tags off of ex
hibits generally. It took 4 policemen
and your correspondent to keep tho
newspaper exhibit from becoming a total
wreck, and then wc were only partly
successful. Tbey took possession of.
the skating rink and musucrn, andj
tried to pusu each other into the pond i
where six big alligators are kept, Tha
only thing tbat quieted tbem was'

RAD FORM.
Mrs, Doodlcbnrc attends a fashionable
church, and last Sunday a real warm,
human Methodist preacher filled the
pulpit, and fdled It pretty full. After
tho sermon, Mrs. D. was talking to an'
other lady about It.
"Did you hear that old woman over
In the corner say 'Amen,' when Dr. B.
finished ono of bis appeals?" she tsid.
"No, I don't believe I did," was the
response,
"Well, I did, and It made me real
ncrvons "
"Why should it? She wouldn't do
any harm."
"Oh, do, I suppose not; bnt calling
out tbat way during servico Is so very
religious, you know, and at our church
It Is miserably bad form for anybody to
be religious
She had reached her carriage by this
time and the conversation ended.
