PARIE, Oct. 28.—A remarkable story is going the rounds as to the real animus of the tremendous demonstration in Maich, 1885, against Miss Marie Van Zandt, the | American singer. M. Goron, formerly a high official atthe Prefecture of Police, declares that the memorable and offensive atiack upon the singer was engendered by the followers of M. Ferry to counteract an iniended demonstration against Lim by Radicals and Socialists aiter the disastrous defeat of the French at®Lang Son, Annam. M. Camercarse, the Prefect of Police of ine day, was consulted as to how to pre- vent the intended demonstraticn against 1he unpopular M. Ferry, and according to M. Goron he suggested a monster demon- stration against Miss Van Zandt. Ali the available detectives and theatrical claques were sent to the Opera Comique 10 howl at and hiss the American singer.

From .amana. LONDON, Oct. 29.—The Daily Chronicle this morning prints a sensational tele- gram from Bombay, which says: There is much speculation here as to the rea<«ns for the witharawal of the sec- ond batiaiion of the Royal Irish Regiment from Samana to Rawal Pindi. It is asserted, on one hand, that the men sulked at the critical moment and refused 10 marc: furiher. On the other nand, Colonel Lawrence says that two comranies were at the front with the other iroops on the day in question, while the remaining companies were retired on order ot a siaff commander. Thi= latter statement is contradicted from headquarters by the assertion that the order was to advance and not to re- tire. When tbe entire batialion was withdrawn General Sir Yeatman Riggs gave us a reason that it was saturated with malaria. A medical examination was demanded, and it developed the fact that 85 per cent of the men were quite h althy. Commenting on this dispatch the Daily Chronicle says: “Evidently somebody ha- blundered, and the case is one that de- mands inquiry. It is a singular fact t: at while there are numerous Scoich bat- talion- on the northwest [ndian frontier there are only oue or two Irish bat- talions.” .

There is no other valor in the world that even stands comparison with that displayed by the woman called upon to protect her children from violence. There is noweapon that a woman will not wield and no danger that she will not dare.

When it comes to appraicing the val- ues of big lumps of prdperty in the bus- ness center ot the town there is almost as much difference among real estate men as among doctors when a disease is to be diagnosed. The value of the lfick House property is a bone of contention among the appraisers of the Fair estate that Las set ail Montgomery street a-talking, anua as many different opinions on the subject nave been advanced as there are drinkson Klondike. : ;‘L\e three men who cannot agree offi- cialiy upon this item are Richard V. Dey, G. L. Bresse and E. A. Lei h, who were appointed by Judge Slack almost a year ago to ascertain just how much James G. Fair left his chitdren. Now 1t happened that a short time previous to his death the milliona‘re invested heavily in down- town busine:s property, the Lick House being ore of his principal purchases. lx;x,; purchase prc2 was the trifling sum of $1,250,000 cash. Many other lots were bougut about the same time, but they were small affairs compared Wwith the Montgomery-street hostelry, and althou the three appraisers have aplit to a more or less extenton the vaiue of all of thece purchases, it is probabie that their x-epc:‘x»x would have bern made to the court lo: a2o only for a trifling difference of $2: 000 in the worth of the Lick House. Pretty nearly every real estate dealer in the city has been cailed upon for a: opinion, and it seems that the property as a money affair is somewhat of a con- undrum to house and lot sharps in general. It is understood that of the three ap- praisers Leigh and Bresse are of the opin- 1on that the Lick House is worth all Fair paid for it, if not more. Both are real estate dealers, and of course 1t may be that they care to see no depreciation of prices of property. Dey on the other hand, it is said, does not believe the Lick House is worth within $250,000 of the value Leigh and Bresse put upon it, and thus it _goes proportionately all along the line. In fact, it is said that witbin the last few days in adding up the various items of the immense estate the three ap- praisers are at vsnrinm(:)ooozo the extent of a sum exceeding $1,000,000. Next to :hga Palace Hotel the Lick House covers more land than any business building in the city. ————— To Suggest a Site.
