About a month ago when the city council voted to nave Main street with A Day with the Wlnemalcers of Argen teutl Picturesque Scenes That ArtUts Delight to Dwell Upon The frwonu and Their Merrymaking. The commerce of wine being so large an item in the financial prosperity of France, is a question worthy of study, and for that pur pose I started for the little village of Argen teuil, the spot nearest Paris where the vint ago may be seen- in all its charms. There are, indeed, many charming qualities to the gathering and transportation, the sorting and pressing of the grapes, the manipulation of the wine and the festivities connected with a successful vintage. See this line of, peasants widening dowa among the low growing vines. They come from a longdistance back in the country, and will stand at the corner of the highroad, as we read of their standing 1,800 years ago, waiting "for some man to biro them." Old men and women, young men and children, in charming faded blouses and handkerchiefs; in great woolen sabots, or with no shoes at all. Glad enough they are to earn the forty. or thirty, or even twenty cents a day which is paid for their labor. Before daylight they began to assemble, and at 6 a. m. the patron appears. lie en gages them in order, tosses them a pruniu; knife and hotte (high wooden basket, carried on the back), telling them, none too kindly, to "Go! serve!" and they are off to the day's labor. It is indeed a subject worthy of the en thusiasm given it by the French artists. In the salon one may see half a dozen vintage pictures in the same room, and I do not won der at it now, having seen the ever changing compositions at Areenteuil. The rough whito walls, the tender green of the vines, with the dark tones of the grapes, the faded garments of the laborers those Cue peasant types with the sunlight over all, and tbo musical "chantonner" of the work ers keeping time with the cutting of the vines, lend a charm indescribably fascinating. Later they begin the passage from the fields into tho town. There is no restriction as to to the means of transportation, although the largo vineyard owners provide then own carts, drawn by the great Normandy horses, festooned with trailing vines artistically ar ranged about the harness, for in France the meanest peasant has an eye for the beautiful. County Clerk Robinson Contests. As intimated by the IIkkai.d several days ago, J. M. Robinson to-day, through his attoi ii y.i, Ramsey & Gniiig filed a complaint iv ilh the county Judge against Bird CM'.' l.luld the republican county clerk fieri, claiming fraud on the part of Judcri of Klection, especially on the part of 1 he democratic, board at Louis ville, vhn were especially engineered and mailed by W.

The fantoccini, introduced by Manager Sanderson, was wonderful and was continually applauded. The scenes from Ilumpty Dumpty were amusing and the entertainment closed with the great decapitation act by Allison Knee. They will repeat their entertainment to night and to-morrow night, ami give a matinee to-morrow at 2 p. m. Sympathy for the Suffering. AY hue the Lincoln council are repos ing in the arms of the law at Omaha, they are receiving calls and sympathetic letters from all quarters. The sheriff has yieleled up Lis parlor for their benefit "hottes" arranged in wheelbarrows and handcarts or a donkey laden with sacks up to Li.j ears and a "go as please" line of men ; women ancl children bearing the fruit in every conceivable manner in "hottes," in baskets, in bags, ill pails and wooden bowls, in boxes and buckets of tin, on their heads, their backs, their shoulders, between them in twos and threes and dragged along in boxes on the ground. As they enter town they disperse in the direction of the different cellars and presses. There are any number of processes of wine making, and as many methods of pressing the fruit as there are owners of vineyards, but almost every peasant has his little vine yard, and much of the wine is made in their own cellars, flere they return to first prin ciples, the men treading the wine press and stained from bead to foot with the red liquid. There they use the latest inventions for wine rnakmg. The great vats, holding!, 200 quarts, whirl rapidly by steam beneath the counter movement of a ponderous disk of stone; the noise of the gushing grape juice is like that of a small torrent, spouting from a tube on the right, and the dry masses of pulp ejected into a trough for the purpose on tbo left, everything moving in regular order noisy, ugly, labor saving. Thus modern invention takes the poetry out of old time customs, and I turn away disgusted to seek a less modern atmosphere, a more congenial example of the good old fashioned wine press. One may trace to its source the purple red stream that trickled down between the great stones of the village street. It will lead per haps to more interesting fields, and in this quaint old village one may wander at will unmolested into every nook and corner. There is a strong odor of crushed grapes as, following (hp colored stream, I turn into a vino covered court, At one end stands a thatched shed full of the largest casks I ever saw. Here, sitting on an overturned hotte, a measure of new wine beside him, sits the proprietor of the establishment, smoking a long china pipe. 'Has monsieur ever heard the chanson of the croconsf' Abks the proprietor, offering a mug of wine. -'Is mnieur acquainted with the vintage? Will he attend the'mercy mak ing this evening?" I accept with alacrity. If monsieur has interest in the wine press he Something Cheap. . Felt s1mj lis 5Sc. worth ??m: Felt si i jx-is, l";itlu r .sole HOc. j ue u. m u n nwi'i worm si. ;:.

November, 18 1887. I follow the direction indicated and potnp upon a neat box bordered court, a white' cottage, pvery window of which is filled with delicious flowers. At the back is an evenly planted vineyard, where I catch a glimpse of the white cap and spotless apron of madams, who is skillfully clipping buncoes of grapes into a large basket. JNear her stands the patient little donkey who will bear the fruit to her original wine press around the corner. This is a truly unique process of wino making, and I stand watch ing tho rich purple juice ooze through the sive into the pail below in rapt wonder. This and many presses I studied that day at ArgenteufL" The wine J drink now in Paris has a more agreeable flavorredolent of the happy association and the impressions caught during vintage time.
