CbiWtgo tltey had the luck to get jobs
with car loads of horses, and arrived
In, New York .without having sjicnt
any inouey I to speak of. After reach
ing Xew York they huntt-tl around for
some way to work their passage
across the Atlantic, and with lack sjtill
with them, they secured iassage on
the big freighter Minneapolis, paying
for their ride -by eariug for horses.
They were ten days at sea, and ar
rived at Tilbury dock, twenty-six
Utiles from Iomlon. lu lirsi-rate shaiH-.
and with nearly all of their $H Intact.
Tliejr siM'Ut a week in Ixndo:i. visit
ing it'll the: principal places of amuse
ineiit awl litany historical spots, and
then, they struck ut for Paris. When
It came to getting across the channel,
they found themselves up. against it
for' the first time. There was but one
way to get to the French capital, and
that was to pay out-the. cash, so they
paid their fare, $(Jd apiece for the
round trip. They arrived. In Paris
with a few dollars, not a friend with
iu 3.000 miles, and no knowledge of
the French language. They could not
make themselves understood, and
when they arrived at the cxiHsshloli
grounds they sient nearly the whole
of one day twfore they could gain -admission.
Tltey found an Englishman,
who showed them where to go. or
they could never have got inside of
the exposition. They -did not .'encoun
ter more than a dozen Americans
while abroad. They. lived very cheap
ly In Paris, confining themselves to
two meals a flay, ami then they went
back to Tilbury dock, where the ship
Mihneaitolis was still riding at anchor.
Before quitting tlie ship they had par
tially arranged to work" their way
1 tack 011 that 1oat. ami. their luck still
witli them, they were engaged at ouce
for service on . the return trip. The
boat had been in port, eleven days.
Keyes was employed as sculleryiuan.
ami his business was to wash the pots.
taus. ami other kitchen utensils 011
the big freighter. When he was not
busy scrubbing dirty pots, etc.. he was
compelhtl to peel potatoes, of which
alxmt eight bushels were consumed a
day. Young Donaldson was cast as
the ship cook's mate, or cook's helis-r.
He -had. to work in a room that was
as hot as an oven, within a few feet
of a huge tank of ! soiling. water, ami
the heat nearly used him up for a few
days. Put he got used toit, all but
getting up' iu the . morning at 3:.'!
o'clock, which was tlie usual hour for
going to work for both the young men.
"We had tlie worst luck arter we
got back to Xew York." sahl Keyes.
"We neethm a little money., and it bad
been sent to us. but we didn't get it
on tune, vv e hail a few very serious
hours, but hot once were we compelled
to go hungry. We came from New
York to Chicago 011'. our stock con

can imagine what it was to cook .and
clean for them. .The liremeii were Ihe

Among the. veterans calmly living
out their heretofore stormy lives in
the quiet, silent gardens of the lnva-
lifles. one of the best known is tlie
agctfPere Deny ltoch. who is a great
favorite with members of the imper
ialist party aud whose isersoiiality is
doubtless familiar to many readers of
Mainly About People, as tlie custo
dian of XaiM.leon's tomb. This gallant
old grognaitl. who, styles himself, gran
diosely. "Orderly oT hit majesty the
King Xaisoleoii I.." but who in reality
was only a sergeant in the Yoltigeurs
de la tiarde, makes a great isoiut of
never missing the annual service in
memory of the Prince Imperial to
which I refer.
So, the other day, he made his ap-IH-aiiince
at the Church of Saiut Au

of the Invalides, withj. the exception
of the usual headgear. Iu place of
this he proudly wore his enormous vol
tlgeur shako, with the Imperial ea'gie.
