THE NEW EMPRESS OF RUSSIA.
A Young woman of AmfabIe Dispo-
sitiOn and Domestic Habits.
Ne,o York Tribune.

The Princess Dagmar, as the Empress
is still called in the land of her birth,
grew up with her sister Alexandra, now
the Princess of Wales, at the Danish
Court with very modest surroundings.
The Queen was an excellent mother, and
sought to develop in her daughters the
woman in preference to the Princess. 1t
used to be said at the capital that the
Princesses were made to help in making
their own dresses, and that the furniture
in their common bed room was covered
with inexpensive calico. A story of the
naive admiration expressed by Princess
Dagmar on being shown the wedding
trousseau of one of the noble ladies at
court, and her longing wonder whether
she would ever herself own 'such hand
some things" was told with a touch of
sympathetic pride by the people of Copen-
hagen, with whom the two Princesses
were great favorites. Dagmar had won
her way deepest into the peoples heart,
however. Her sweet disposition, the
winning grace of her manner and the
perfect freedom with which she, like
her sisters (and indeed the whole royal
family, moved among all classes of the
people were well calculated to gain for
her an affection that followed her to her
new home and found expression at her
wedding in a score Of ways that touched
the heart of the Princess profoundly.
At every subsequent appearance at her
fathers court she was received by the
people with enthusiasm that even en-
braced her husband, despite the rumors
of his sinister character and violent tenn.
per that from the beginning had threat
ened to make the match an unpopular
one. The Czarewitch apparently took
kindly to this popularity, and when
at Copenhagen mingled freely with the
pOpulace. His bluff, soldierly way
soon found favor, and when
Dagmar's children, in little killed suits
and with dark hair banged" over their
foreheads, began to be seen about the
park at Fredensborg, ''grandpapa's"
summer palace, the reconciliation to the
foreigner was complete. The people of
Copenhagen, among whom the Princess
Dagmar moved, liked to compare her
virtues with those of the beloved Queen,
and at her departure for her Russian
home the fervent wish followed her that
she would prove in truth q Veritable
Dagmar-a "harbinger of day" to the
unhappy people whose Empress she was
some day to become. She was not a
handsome child, her features being
clumsy, though pleasing; but she grew
into very beautiful woman. like her
sister Alexandra. In every print -ahop in
Copenhagen pictures Of her and her hus-
band, with tAaif children, are for sale.
The children have little of their mothers
looks, but bear strong resemblance to
their father.

The Negro ExOdusters in Kansas.

Inc Negro EXOQuSters In Kansas.
Several small parties of negroes from
the South having recently arrived in
Kansas, an earnest effort will be made
by that State to stop this exodus move
ment on the ground that Kansas is al.
ready too full of colored people. With
this purpose in view, Colonel John M.
Brown, a colored man, who has inter
ested himself in the exodus from the be.
ginning, and who is well known among
his people, has been sent to st. Louis.
Cairo and other points to meet the rein
gees as they come North. present the
exact situation to them. and, if posi-
bic, lnauce them to stop in some OF the
older States not overCrowded with lahc;.
but where there IS really a demand for
workmen Of all k;r16 -
.n the intention of making a dis
tlnction OF the newcomers, and for the
purpose of supplying whatever demand
pay 1e made this year from any part of
the North for laborers, a national asso-
citation is to be formed, with headquar-
ters at Cairo-that being considered the
most favorable point for an intelligent
direction of the movement, as most of
the exodusters make their first stop there
on the way from Tennessee, Mississippi,
Kentucky and Louisiana
The exodusters who came to Kansas
last year have mostly settled in towns to
themselves Thus, Tennessee Town,
which Joins Topeka on the south, con-
tains none but negroes. Alabama is an
other negro village that has recently
sprung up on the Kaw river.
In many localities the negroes began
last year the cultivation of cotton; par
ticularly in the Labette and Neosho val
leys, but the season was very unpropi-
tious in consequence of drought, and the
Kansas cotton crop was largely failure.
More than 1900 acres, however, were
planted in cotton in the counties in which
the negro exodusters settled, and fully
500 bales produced. Next season a much
larger acreage will be planted. Some of
the Louisiana negroes also talk of trying
sugar cane.

LONDON, March 26-The loss of life by
the burning of the Opera House at Nice
has been pretty accurately ascertained.
There does not seem to be any foundation
for the statement that a number of foreign
ers are missing. The Opera House was
very old building, which was rebuilt by the
government about fifty years ago. The
stage fittings were of the very
lightest material and the scenery was
painted on paper. When the fire attacked
these they burned with great rapidity, The
building kad only two doors, one leading to
the pit and boxes, and the other to the gal
leries. The latter was only four feet wide.

AN IMPORTANT ARREST:

years old, and draught horse belonging

generally unsuccessful .unti last Friday
when young man was captured near
Galesburg, that proved to be thief, and
from this arrest it is believed others will
follow, that will break up the gang and
stop the thieving. The Galesburg Register
says that the fellow who was arrested came
to that city and tried to sell fine horse
He had been to several horse men, but
failed to strike a bargain, and finally tried

he had anything to trade The man re-
piled that he had three year old mare
colt outside that he would like to trade.
O'Connor then brought out little marc
not worth more than $15, and asked the
stranger how he would trade his animal.
He replied that he would ask SIS to boot
This was rather good bargain, as the
mare the stranger had was worth from
1926 to $3.50, and led Mr. o'Connor to
suspicion that the animal was stolen. He
then asked the man where he got the mare,

THE TRIGGER.

The success of the Geneseo sportsmen at
the Chicago tournament, is still the theme
of the press of that town. The Republic
referring to the matter says:
"The Geneseo sportsmen who participa-
ted in the state tournament at Chicago all
got home on the evening train last Sunday.
They met with more than their usual sue
cess, and, counting the diamond badge
worth 81 900. they took prizes to the
amount of 81, 500. Chicago felt sure of
keeping the diamond badge, and had about
one hundred men entered in the shoot for
it. But luck and good craftsmanship took
it from them 1t is evidently conceded
that Geneseo boasts more and better marks
men than any other place in the country,
and some of our boys propose to pick eight
men and shoot against any other eight men
in the world for 81, 900 side, and the
proposition find no takers This offer is
still open and bars no man."
Rock Island has few good shots, some
of whom can, when sufficiently nerved,
drop a straight ten birds with reasonable
regularity, and there ought to be material
enough here to select team to 90 to
Geneseo and try turn with the sports up
there
