Mnnich has been invaded by an enor
mous army of butterflies. - Millions of
the species known as "nonnenschraetur
linse" attacked the city a few uights
ago, attracted, as is supposed, by the
brilliancy of the electric lights. The
walls of the houses before which elect i ic
lamps were fixed . were literally covered
with the butterflies. In several place
they forced their way through the door
and windows and flattered around v.
lights. In the Cafe Kaiserhof and thu
Loewenbran-Keller the intensity of tiie
light fascinated such swarms of the but
terfly "nuns that the devotees of Kiuc
Gambrmas found their huts and clothe
so Vhickly coated with the intruders that
they hurried oat and left the invaders in
IMjKsession. In some places the lamp
were darkened by the mass of butterflies
clinging around them. St. dames G.i

A g-xl story of General Sheridan wai
Kid me the other day by a Mexican
gentleniiu, an intimate friend of ths
srreat northern soldier in his lifetime.
One day, calling on the commander of
the army at his office in Washington, hi
found him at his desk, his feet incased
m slippers and his shoes democratically
placed on top of the desk. While the
general was apparently absorbed in some
writing, the Mexican gentleman, who
thought some servant had left the war
rior's shoes in the wrong place, took his
caue and gentlv deposited the shoes on
the door
The next day the Mexican gentleman
called again on Sheridan and found him
at his desk, shoes on top as before. The
plite resident of the tropics began once
more removing the shoes to the floor.
when all at once Sheridan roared out:
'Don't you do that again, sir! You

a gentleman looking at me intently
Soon he addressed me, saying, 'Excuse
me. general, but aren't you afraid of
catching cold?" 'Why, sir, no, not that

Well." said the gentleman, it is very
damp and you are going about in your
shpiiere!' I tell 3-ou, sir. said Sheridan.
addressing his Mexican mend, "you
made me ridiculous. It is my habit, sir.
to put my shoes on my desk where I can
not fail to see them, so 1 may not forget
to put them on. and, confound it, sir.
