MOLONEY Al' MONACO.
THE EXILE SPENDS A DAY THERE
AND HAS AN ADVENTURE.
A Fine Dinner end n Diversion at the Gam
ing Table—No Money and no Pan-
port—lie Makes Ulmself Known
and Is Allowed to Depart.
Hew Tort Strr.
Hr. J. J. O’Dooohue who returned from
Europe last week, met “Billy” Moloney
several times in Paris. Billy looked well
and seemed to be stouter than he was when
he acted as go-between for the boodle al
dermen and the Broadway railroad men.
The following instructive incident out of
Billy’s travels on the continent is told by
Mr. O’Donohne as it was narrated to him
by Mr. Moloney himself:
From Paris, where Mr. and Mrs Moloney
had gone from London after a brief so-
jonrn, Billy Moloney shaped his ronte for
Switzerland. There a-e many attractions
within the compasB of a day’s excursion,
and the point was debated between Mr.
and Mrs. Moloney as to which they should
find visit. They might go to Marseilles, or
while away the 'hours among the orange
trees and chestnut groves of Florence, or
take a peep at the wicked place Monaco,
where, according to the latest advertisement,
“tbo management shrink from no sacrifice
to render it ms delightful ns possible to
visitors.” Poetry, scenery and natnral
wonders yielded the palm to wickedness,
and Moloney finally decided on Monaco.
The excursion is short and cheap. Mr.
and Mrs. Moloney went to Nice, and from
there got to Monaco in half an hour. Al
though not given to calculate bis expenses
too nicely, he thought himself wonderfully
clever when he took five twenty-frnno
pieces out of his traveling bag after break
fast and said to Mrs. Moloney as they were
about leaving the hotel at Nice, he sup
posed that would do for the <iav. Mrs.
Moloney supposed alro that it would.
The cost of Mr. Moloney’s dinner would
have made a very satisfactory addition to
the dail revenue of the potentate in whose
dominion it was discussed. But they are
infinitely too polite at Monaco to present
the bill immediately the ‘debt is incurred
One cannot run away without piling, and
besides, yon have cig>trs and coffee, and so
forth, to add to tho score before you
leave, so the pleasure ui p*>-
ing is reserved till that moment No
one ever saw a high stake plaved for with
out an inclination to try his luck as others
did. Let a stranger wntoh the fluctuations
of th« Minn at Monaco for ten minutes,
aud, in spite of himself, ho becomes inter
cited, and if ho has any money in his pock
et the chances are he wtil make more or less
of it before he leaves the spot
Billy Moloney was no exception to most
of the people who visit Monaco, and con
eluded ti try his luck at the gambling ta
bic. Be cared little about winning or los
ing when he threw down a twenty-franc
gold piece on the table. He cared nothin*
about the result when the croupior raked
it into the tinker's heap, nor did he seem
E irtioulnrly elated when, after repeating his
at, the coiu returned to bis possession. But
ho was amused by tbo process, and so
was Mrs. Molonny, who stood beside him,
and who, after two or threo alternations,
woman like, gavo her advice, which Billy
followed. Having at oue time won about
a handled franc*. Billy found himself at
the end of a quarter of an hour with
waistcoat pocket entirely empty.
“Have you any money with you my
dear?' ho asked hia wife.
Not a franc,” was Mrs. Moloney'
“Two, then, if yu want, aud the whole
lot of it. Does that make any difference?”
“To us, indeed, and also to those who
dine with empty pockets.”
“But L tell you,” retorted Billy, “ I had
money when I came here.”
“That’s a story. Others have told the
same tale; it occurs quite frequently. Have
yon any acquaintances here? ,f
“No, I don’t know a soul in the place.”
“That does not astonish me Ho I thought
in the beginning. You probably have a
passport, if yon i re au American?”
Billy owued he bad no passport
“Is it possible for yon to have a name?”
maliciously suggested the Frenchman.
Billy said be had—his name was William
Moloney.
“Very good; perhaps related to the Mo
loney a of Cork.”
“For that matter,” said Billy, “I am re
lated to the Moloneys, bnt what difference
cuu it make to you whether I pay your
bill to-night or to-morrow. I am staying
at tho principal hotel at Nice. It’s getting
late and if we don’t go now we shall miss
the last train. That reminds me, by the
way, that I didn't got a return ticket my
dear (turning to his wife ) Your waiter
here can go with us to tho depot, pay for
onr tickets and accompany us to Nice.”
“Eh!” exclaimed the head waiter,
should like that. I shall pay your tickets.
* shall accompany yon! Not much!”
“Now be so good,” said tho director
attend to me. You couio bore two entire
strangers. Yon dine, you amuse yourself,
aud you intend to go off without paying
your bill. 1 demaud your passport. You
say you have none. I ask your name. You
say William Moloney. Then again you de
sire even this waiter’s money for your re
turn trip. All this makes it clear to mo
that you appear here for a bad purpose,
And what am I to do? Louis, send for the
police.”
At intimation, which gave a turn to
the affair that looked rather serious, Mrs.
Moloney said: “Surely there can be no ne
cessity for this. Yon cannot suppose that
we are swindlers. Have you notning about
you, my dear, to give this person to keep
till we send over the wretched sum we owe
him? There is your .watch; let him hu*e it
till to-morrow.”
Billy took of his watch, aud while brnd
ing it to the director, whispered something
in ills ear. The director started back with
out taking the watch, and the next mo
ment ho and Billy w^re shaking bauds.
“Here couio tho police,” shouted Louis,
tho head Waiter.
“There is no occasion for his prrsonce,
said tho director. “I brg Mr. and Airs.
Moloney’s pardon for the inconvenience ]
have caused them. To-morrow, Air. Mo-
louey, 1 u ill have the pleuaure to wait on
you at Nice, when you can return this
trifle.” (Heoffered a twenty-franc note us
he spoke.)
With u few compliments and “Bon soil'
tho director followed Mr. and Mrs. Moloney
to the door.
“What on earth wes the cause. Bill, of
the sudden change in this man’s behavior? ’
linked Mrs. Molonev, as toon ai'they had
entered the railroad car.
“I told him who I was, that I was a ref a
gee and cf our trouble ut home. Ho bad
read ot it in the French newspapers und re*

looked round the table to see if by chance
there was any one he kuew from whom he
could have borrowed what he wanted, lint
the people there were all strangers to blm,

panned occasionally to observo th» differ

never once oc.urred to him.
An honr or two having been pissed in
this way, Mrs. Moloney, who begun to. feel
rather tired, suggested that it was time (or

“By all means," said Billy, “let's go!”
Tbit was more easily said than done, a
slight impediment to their departure occur
ring in the shape of the head waiter of the
establishment, who, with s smiling face,
approached Billy, and making a bow pru-
sented a paper, on which, in minute
hieroglyphics, were traoed the interesting
panieman for the dinner which Mr. and
lira. Moloney bad consumed tout uay, aud
which came to exactly *7.75.
‘•By Jove!" exclaimed Billy. M ho glanced
at toe bill, “I had forgotten all about this.
I havn't a cent left. What's to be done?"
The expression of his face in this dilemma
must have been very comical, for Mrs.
Moloney—ao Billy stated—bunt ont laugh
ing.
“jo much for turning gambler,” she
said.
“What am I lo do?” repeated Mr. Mo
loney, losing full at the head waiter.
“Monsieur will p *y his bill,” replied the
head waiter, rather puzzled at the question.
“It it quite correct.”
“1 don't diapnte a figure of it, but, nn
luckily I haven't got an} money.'*
"Eh!” exclaimed the be at waiter, begin-
nieg to look ngly. "Why do you
without money?''
“1 had money enough when I cams here,
retorted Billy, ‘hat tho fact is 1 loaf it all

The head waiter shrugged his *L(it
