Spring is late this year with US, ana
we have as yet had only a few mild
days calling forth the sleeping vege-
tation; but on Thursday the sky was
clear, and the cutting easterly wind
had claimed down. In the morning a
grand review was held in the parade
grounds near the Castle of Rosen-
borg, and in the afternoon the King
had a le06e at Christiansborg. From
these parts Of the programme the
Royal ladies were excluded, and the
fluctuations brought to the King by
his nearest relations and the Court
had a strictly family character. The
Royal family dined with the Heredi-
tary Dowager Princess, daughter of
the late King Frederick VI, and con-
sequently granddaughter of that |
unhappy Queen Caroline Mathilde,
now a venerable, but still hale lady |
in her 87th year. For the night inyi-

"Uneasy Rests the Head That Wears .
Crown"

A thorough investigation of every por-
ton of the Winter Palace, in st. Peters
burg, having at length been completed,
and the police authorities having salts
fed themselves that no danger of an
other attempt upon the Cars life within
the walls of his town residence is at pres
emit to be apprehended, he now resides
in the palace again, sleeping, however,
in a different apartment every night.
The life actually led by the Russian En-
peror in his magnificent abode is pitiably
dismal. No nourishment, either solid
or liquid, that has not been tasted in his
presence by some official parsonage ever
passes his lips. His bath is examined
every morning by the medical officers of
his household before he ventures to use
it, and he seldom approaches stove or
fireplace, lest some explosive material,
concealed among the fuel, should have
been secretly introduced into it. Before
he retires to rest, his bedroom and dress
ing room, as well as the apartments
contiguous to them on the upper and
lower floors, are submitted to rigorous
inspection. His Majesty appears ex-
tremely nervous, takes no interest in
State business, and exhibits indifference
to the military details which heretofore
constituted his favorite occupation.

pluck. They learn the habits of fami-
lies in houses they propose to plumber,
and then. while the family is at dinner,
will climb up the stone coping of the
front door to the second-story window,
enter there, and rapidly go through the
rooms, taking everything of value they
can reach. and departing as they came.
They are always young fellows,
athletic, agile, and generally are desper-
ate characters. Most of them are good
looking, and they aim to get information
of the habits of the families they mark
for robbery by forming acquaintance
with the nurses and servant girls, either
at the area gates or in the parks, when
the girls are sent out with the children.
Troy Dennis was one Of the boldest OF
this class, and came to his death while
practicing his nefarious work. He had
Just robbed one house in Madison ave-
nue., and was climbing up to the second
story window of another when the ILL
secured coping over the door fell with
him, and in some way, as he and the
stone came down together, his head was
undermost, and was crushed. He lived
only until he was carried to Bellevue
Hospital. That famous robbery of Moore,
the gun-maker, of 5000, 900, was perpe-
trated in that way by Troy Dennis and
Q. Carr. Carr committed suicide by
taking poison on Sound steamer.
"What is the most dangerous Grim

That depends on how you mean

those who attempt to interfere with him
or who seek to arrest him, your third OF
fourth-class burglar; the ignorant brute
who relies only on force, and has q NOR
bid dread of arrest, is the worst. But i
you mean dangerous to the community
at large, by reason of his greater capaci
ty for crime and ingenuity in evadins
punishment for it, by all odds your sobel
criminal, to whatever class he may be
long, is the worst. You will find at tn,
top Of every class of criminals few wh'
drink nothing stronger than seltzer wa

they are the terrors. There was William
Gray, the bond forger, who was brough
back here from Europe by Captain Keal
year ago last July. His father was TO
years Chaplain of the United States Sen
ate. He was well educated, had tn
most charming manners and APPARENT
, correct life, and never drank even 81
of wine. That was how he came to b

where not required, such as, /" The King

. sentence is rendered extremely ludi-
crous. A gentleman says he lately

gan his discourse thus: "My friends,
you will find my text in the First Epistle
General of Peter, fifth chapter, and
eighth verre: The devil he goeth about
like roaring lion, seeking whom he
may devour.' Now, my brethren, for
your instruction, have divided my text
into four heads. Firstly, we shall en-
deavor to ascertain who the devil he
was. Secondly, we shall inquire into
his geographical position, namely.
where the devil he was, and where
the devil he is going. Thirdly, who the
devil he was seeking. And fourthly and
lastly, we shall endeavor to solve q
question which has never yet been
solved-what the devil he was roaring
about"

Fashions and Fancies in Wall Decoration.

The tendency in colors is gradually to
leave the olive tints and shades and to
tend toward the light, warm browns that
are styled coral in England, but which
are unlike any corals except those wide,
branching kinds called sea-fans. This
color is seen at its best in the English
flock papers, which, in spite of all inno-
vations, are almost as much used now as
they were a score of years ago. The
patterns are more elegant than those
formerly employed, being vines or sprays
of leaves so closely interviewer as almost
to cover the ground, but producing an
effect that is much richer than that OF
plain color. These papers are pro-
duced in every conceivable tint, so that
il is possible to match them to any dec
Grafton or furniture. Brocade and cash
mere and tapestry papers are shown IN
GREAT variety, and are remarkable for
the skill with which the pattern is
brought out, so that it is visible from
any point, instead of only being appa-
rent to person who stands IN exactly
the right place, as are many of the de-
signs in which the figure is outlined in
gilt. The grounds are in gold chemi-
callv treated so as to present great
many different tints; in silver made to
assume very delicate green, and in flne
salmon pink that looks like satin. The
figures are vines in dark shades con-
trasting tremendously with the ground
and in looking at them it is hard to be-
lieve that each leaf is not separately
tinted by hand instead OF being the re
suit of many successive printings. Il
must be understood that on these paper
no machine work is possible. Those
who have examined piece OF flne Dor
dering or a roll of paper may have no
ticed that along the uncolored edges
there are small dashes of color apparent
ly without meaning, and destined to b
cut off or hidden. These dashes are tn
registers that mark the limits OF tn
blocks used in printing on the prepared
ground, and as twenty impressions ar
Sometimes needed to produce pattern
some rolls of paper have to De handie'
and dried scores of times before they a.
finished. The gilt and silver ground
are allowed to season year before tho

An exquisite youth of New Haven
took home from party q pretty girl,
who promised to go riding with him on
the following Thursday (the first of
ApriD. She had been introduced to
him, for a joke, as Miss Brown, and had
left him at the gate of genuine Mr..
Browns residence, he supposing it was
her home. Mr.. Brown has six fair
daughters, and when the youth called
there on the festive first with beautiful
horse and stylish buggy, to take "Miss
Brown" out riding, and failed to recog'
nize any one of the six as the lady with
whom he made the engagement, he felt
like just the biggest April fool in these
United States.

The choice some people make OF
matrimonial partners is hard to under
stand. A young Maine farmer married
highly cultured Boston girlwho didn't
know the first thing about housekeeping,
but had devoted her youth to the study
of geology and mineralogy, and when
he took her home, instead of attending
to household duties, she went roaming
about the farm, and soon discovered on
her husbands land gold mine worth
$40, 900. You can't always tell how a
match will turn out.

LIME As AN INsECrIDE.-Freshly slaked
lime. well dried, is very useful for destroying
many Of the pests that attack plants, and In
most cases it may be used quite freely with
out danger Of injudng anything but the In
sects. The asparagus slugs that often APP
pear upon the young shoots in spring are
readily destroyed by liberal appncatons ..

driving away various kinds Of flea beetles
that infest cabbage and caulinower plants,
slugs upon cherry and pear trees, cut-worms
and similar insect pests found In almost every
garden and orchard.
