THE EX-QUEEN OF MADAGASCAR. 4 Kem.irka.ble Woman, Wlio Goes Harefoot ix I In Worth Got7es. The defeated queen of Madagascar, Ihe third largest island in the world, is, ; according to the London Woman, one of | the most interesting women of the mo- j tnent. It is true that she has lately been I in troablo, but it seems now that the chivalrous French govern merit will j leave her almost as well elf as ever. Her J majesty's great charm lies in the orig- ! inality of her manners and of her habits ! of life. She wears $5,000 Worth dresses, and gees about in them barefooted. She j chews tobacco and drinks champagne all j day long. She imports perfumes from ; Paris, but uses palm oil on her hair, j Many similar illustrations of herorigi- 1 naiity might bo given. Her great passion, j however, was the acquisition of Worth | dresses. She wore them everywhere, no j matter how injurious to them the occu- j paucu SDU \Vil3 m w, Visitors saw her majesty sitting on tho : floor of her palace busily transferring a meal of rice, oil and chicken to her mouth with her fingers, and incidentally spoiling a magnificent Worth creation i of silk, velvet and lace. The revenues j she derived from her unfortnnm e peo- j pie were sufficient to purchase her all > the dresses she needed. Sho scarcely approved of all tho vexa- ' tious details of civilized feminine dress. ; For instance, corsets, stockings and shoes formed no part of her wardrobe. "When her majesty crossed the street on a wet day. the foreign residents of her capital were treated to a spectacle which amused them, but which the natives gazed at with awe and reverence. Under these circumstances it may be imagined that her majesty was very much pained when she had to go to war with the French, the source of all her finery, ? But they proposed to annex her country, j and she had to make a stand, the ha- | rangucd her people in the streets of her capital, Antananarivo, and told them it j was a holy war, and made them swear ! to follow to the death. At, tho first en- | counter with the French they showed themselves uselc-ss. .Now, after a march into the interior of Madagascar, during which they suffered terri bly frem disease and other hardships, the French have arrived at Antananarivo, the capital. At first the queen fied to the forest. Her supply of Worth dresses had been getting low, and she was in rags. On this account, probably, she has come to terms with the French. It is announced that she will be permitted to reign as queen under French protection, but that her husband, ! who is likely to be more dangerous to their interests, Will be banished from the island. The queen will have money enough to buy a reasonable number of dresses. She is good looking, having regular features, without negro characteristics, and a light brown complexion. Translators and Translations. The translator is reported to be badly paid by the publisher, and this, to the general reader, naturally suggests in- i fericrity in the nature of his wares. Ho is generally ranked among the unskilled workmen who hang about the market place of literature and are glad of odd jobs. If this low estimate cf the translator's services were confined to the general ! reader, it would matter comparatively j little, but it is unfortunately too often | shared by the translator himself. There J are cf course conspicuous exceptions, bat j for tho most part the industrious writers j who "do into English" much cf the [ continental fiction read in this country ; would themselves readily disclaim any ! very close resemblance to Goethe's noble ! portrait of tho "interpreter of the ua- i tions" whoso office, "whatever may be said of the inadequacy cf translation, is and remains one cf the greatest dignity and importance." With the dignity of their office they are not concerned. They cro ignorant of its importance, and the result is that foreign authors are constantly presented to us in a garb soslovenly that no company that was not serenely indifferent to the quality of liter- j urv workmanship would admit them at all. Those who have given their attention to this matter have sometimes wondered why, in so benevolent a world, no one has yet attempted to organize a society for the prevention of cruelty to foreign authors. These persons do not indeed always belong to the class described by philanthropists as deserving, yet the wrongs inflicted on them and the innocent helplessness of their attitude should surely appeal to some generous soul.? Macmillan's Magazine. "Total Loss of Memory. A very curious instance of those sudden and total losses of memory which raise such perplexing and appalling problems as to the nature of the personality of man is reported this week from Brighton. While sitting on the sea front a woman felt something break in her bead. She thereupon became unable to tell her name, address or anything connected with her past life. She is at present in the Brighton workhouse, her continual cry being, "Oh, shall I get my memory again:" Her clothing does not contain a single mark or initial whereby she might be identified. .She is a respectably dressed woman, apparently fairly well to do. The following is her description: Age about 50; dressed neatly in black; appears to be a nurse or companion ; well educated; wears a wedding rivirr rv We hold, and it seems to us are bound to hold, that the notion of a life beyond the grave which will not be endowed with memory of this life is tantamount to annihilation. But if the state of this poor woman is permanent, then she has already suffered a sort of annihilation, though of course death may revive her lost faculty. Still, if she goes on living she will in effect be another person, and aow are these two personalties to be linked and reconciled: In truth, the ahole thing is cue of the most soul shaking cf mysteries.?London Spectator.

( hhbhhbhhhhbhhh A CHICAGO VIGNETTE. The Clerk's Excuse A be at the Sick liaby Is Investigated by the Manager. Eo liad been in tho habit cf unceremoniously absenting himself from the office for two cr thrco dajs at a stretch at varying intervals for abor.t a year, and at last tbo manager got mad and sworo tip and down that ho wouldn't stand it any longer. "When he comes back this time," said tho manager, rumpling his busby gray hair with one hand while he brought the other fist down on the stenographer's desk with a bang that made the typewriter keys rattle, "I'll dock him for every minute that he has been gone. I'd discharge him on tho spot and bo dono with it, hut he's a good worker when he's here and I like him and will try to put tip with this hit and " ? * j m:ss way 01 coming uiuuuu iui ?? while longer." That was on Monday. The clerk didn't chow np till Wednesday at noon. "What's been tho matter?" asked the 1 manager, pushing his glasses down over tho end of his nose and eying his employee severely, The man took his place at tho long table and commenced slowly pulling on his black office sleeves. ''Tho baby has been sick again," he said gravely taking up his pen and bo. ginning to write. "I'm sorry," he said, "bnt please bear in mind that the next time you go off this way you will lose ycur wages." The man's faco seemed to take en another degree of paleness, bnt ho answered calmly, "All right," and went en writing. It was six weeks before ho staid away Omn l,n wis onno Urn vlwUiii UL1KI illc?u I 1XUU mw ? v days. Ho came back on a pay day. Ilis face was sallow and Laggard and his eyes were sunken and red. "Baby been sick again?" asked the Manager, with a facetious little smile. "Yes," was the quiet answer. "She was worse than usual this time." And tho clerks grinned and made up their minds that ho had had a high old time that trip. Six dollars woro deducted from his salary to offset the pleasures of that lit* tie spree, and tho manager thought that such summary punishment ought to bring about a pretty effectual reformation. But it didn't, At the end of three weeks he staid away again, and although his salary was again diminished at tho same rate, ho tock another self appointed vacation within a month. When he sent a note around the fourth time after tho docking process commenced and accounted for his absence by the same old pica that tho baby was sick tho manager made up his mind that ho would investigate things. "I'm goiDg over to his hcuso and straighten this matter cut," ho said to the stenographer between sentences of tho letter ho was dictating. "That child isn't sick any more than I tun, and uot half as much so, and I'll catch him faco to face in his trickery. If I go over there and find him drunk, as I suppose I will be pretty sure to do, I'lldischargo him so quick ho won't know what his name is." The stenographer said she thought that was the only way to fix him, and right away alter mucn i:e started xor me South Side to hunt up his delinquent employee. The man lived in the third flat, and by the time the manager had puffed and panted himself up the two long flights of stairs he was enraged with the world in general and his clerk in particular for putting him to so much trouble. The clerk himself opened tho door and let tho manager in. liis coat was off and his eyes were swollen and his hair was pushed back in reckless confusion. The manager tapped his cane emphatically 011 the hardwood floor as a prelude to the coming lecture and said with a testiucss that was made still more bitter by suspicion: "Well, sir, I did happen to find you at home, didn't I? How's that babyV" 1 Tho man held out his hand with a gesture of entreaty. "Hush!" he said, with a quiet dignity made strong by grief. "She's dead. She died just an hour ago.''?Chicago News. South African Joys. A correspondent writes from Johannesburg : "Money can be made here, but the conditions are terrible. Talk about South Africa's being a health resort or general world's sanitarium! Rubbish! It is only the very strong, those with sound constitutions, who can survive, in Johannesburg, at any rate. The terrible things here are the dust storms.

A brave, battle seared comrade is laid to his rest, 'Xeath the blue, sunny skies in the the land he loved best. Where the sentinel pine their lone virgils will keep. As they watched o'er the place where the soldier's asleep. Where the wild flowers bloom and the song birds will sing, And the valley's sweet lillies return with the spring. Where the leaflets around him sweet music will make, As the zephyrs pass lightly and wind harps awake. Where the snow flakes above him in winter will fall, Aud will veil with their whiteness the gloom of the pall. He sleeps his last shep, for the warfare is o'er, And the trumpet will call him to battle no more. Ia i he years that are gone, he was brave in the gray, For his banner did wave in the heart of the fray. Aud at last it went down 'nerth the sulphurous rain, Bat he waved it aloft and replaced it again. On Manassas' red plain, in the Wilderness wild, Like the Spartans, at death, he triumphantly smiled.
