is going the rounds in Berlin and Paris,
about Count Herbert, son of a certain iron
Prince, who is suppose to hold the des-
times Of an empire in his hand, and beau
tiful German Princess, wife Of a high
court dignitarY. The count left Berlin
suddenly the other day, as it was supposed
on diplomatic mission. At the same
time the Princess disappeared also, and
her husband obtained permission to re-
tire into private life. Detectives have
just discovered the fugitives in Italy. AL
though the Iron Prince has given Count
Herbert positive orders to come home,
the latter refuses to comply.

A decision was rendered by Judge Mel
son yesterday in the case of Mary West
phal and others, against II. j. Ludlow,
in which action was brought to enforce
payment of 1926 for goods sold.
The defendants claimed that they had
met the Indebtedness according to basis
of settlement formerly agreed upon. They
set up that plaintiffs had accepted note
for the amount named, payable by one
John Call, Jr., and that owing to negli-
gence the note was not presented until
the latter had become insolvent. The
court held that plaintiffs were not re-
sponsible for any event that might follow
the maturement of the note, and judg-
ment was rendered for the sum claimed.

CHICAGO, March 12.-The scheme to

the relief of the city suffering ten years
ago engraved on the new building in a

Legal Railway Decisions.

An interesting decision was made by
the Supreme Court of Georgia in favor
of the Georgia railroad. This was a suit
for $4,000, brought by Owens under
these circumstances He was the holder
of through ticket, bought in Balti-
more, from that place to Atlanta. He
boarded the train in Augusta. Conauc-
tor James b. Johnson took up his ticket,
and gave him a stop-over ticket, allow
ing him to stop over at one point.
Owens protested in writing, claiming
that he had the right to stop as often as
he chose. He boarded the train next
day at Barnett. Conductor Walsh then
took up his ;" stop-over ticket. This
left him without any ticket. He board
ed the train next day at Union Point,
when Conductor j. b. johnson told him
he must pay his fare or get of. He re-
fused to do either, whereupon johnson
put him off, This suit was then brought
for 100000 damages. The jury found a
verdict for the railroad.
The Supreme Court of Kansas, in the
case of animals killed by railroad trains,
held A railroad company is not guilty
of negligence in failing to protect the
swine in a township where they are per-
mitted to run at large, and it appears
from an agreed statement of facts that
hog was killed by the negligence of the
railroad company in such township, and
it further appears that the negligence of
the owner in permitting the animals to
run at large, in violation Of the statute
laws, contributed directly to the injury
the negligence of the defendant was
Offset by the negligence of the plaintiff,
and the owner of the animals could not
recover for the loss.
The Supreme Court of Georgia de-
cides that, in suit against railroad
for loss of goods shipped over it's line, it
was competent for the defendant to
prove by the agents of connectingroad
delivery in good order to it; and. al
though the witness may never have seen
the goods, they may. testify from the
books of their company, proved to have
been made in the usual order of business
and to be accurate. Also that, when
writing is shown to be lost or beyond
the jurisdiction of the court, secondary
evidence Of its contents is admissible.

EngIand's Last Annexation.

The Island Of Rotumah has been
formally annexed to the British En-
pire as an integral portion of the FIJI
group, forming part of the West
Indies of the Pacific" The island is
some thirteen miles in length, by four
or five in breadth, rising in gentle,
well-wooded slopes from the sea to the
range of hills forming it's backbone,
and having al elevation of about 600
feet. The lower lands are fertile, and
yield large crops of vans, taro and
bananas, while the hills to their sum-
mits are thickly studded with cocoa
nut palms. The greater part of the
interior of the island is either so COW
cred with scorise as to render any
attempt at cultivation out of theques-
ton, or walled in and surrendered to

chief source of wealth to the natives.

A Growing COuntry,

The London Times, in the course of a
long article reviewing the wonderful
progress OF the United States, as shown
by the last census returns, says:
A nation has never exhibited a mere
magnificent picture Of material progress
for ten years. Since 1870 more than
11,500,000 have been added to the popu-
lation, at q rate of 80 per cent. increase.
Except China and Great Britain and
Russia, no Government can count more
subjects. In the number of citizens
moved by similar impulses, and recog
nizing common ends, the British empire
itself yields to the great republic. Fifty
mlllions.of human beings in q land like
America more than match the S6,000,-
600 Of European and Asiatic Russia.
The 425, 900, 900 Of China are not to be
compared with them as force among
mankind. The growth of population
may generally be understood to imply
the growth Of wealth and resources. AS
each census in European state indi-
Gates numerical advance, it may for
the most part be inferred that fresh
means of support have been made avail
able. When, however, every successive
census in the United States reveals an ex-
pallsion by bounds and leaps, faith in
the instinct of human nature not to
multiply beyond the power Of existence
is scarcely needed to reassure anxiety.
The granary which is to feed the new
millions which have come, the millions
which are to follow, piles its stores for
the whole world to certify them. Each
added American citizen has not to search
for thelivelihoodn nature hides somewhere
or other for all its children. He is born
or imported with his inheritance labeled
and allotted. He has but to 60 west, or
north, or south there it is awaiting his
advent. European populations, even
the home population of Great Britain,
it must be acknowledged, have rather in
their decennial polls look of boys
growing out Of their clothes. An elbow
or an ankle is sure to be seen betraying
want of proportion between past re-
sources and present demands. On the
other side of the Atlantic there is a
magazine Of clothes warranted to fit all
ages and sizes. Good soil is crying out
everywhere for its owners to come and
possess it. !"

Height Of Clouds.

The height of cloud may sometimes
be measured In the same manner as the
height of any other inaccessible object,
by simultaneous observations of its di-
rection at two stations. More satisfac-
tory results may, however, be obtained
by ascending in balloon and noting the
height Of the barometer at the instant of
entering cloud, and again when emerg-
ing from it, the barometer affording the
means Of computing the corresponding
attitudes. In mountainous countries we
may sometimes determine the height of
cloud by comparing it with peak of
known elevation near which the cloud is
carried by the wind.
The height of clouds is very variable.
and their mean elevation is not the same
in different countries. The stratus cloud
often descenes to the earth's surface. In
pleasant weather the lower limit of cum
ulous clouds varies from 5000 to 5000
feet elevation, and their upper limit
from 5, 900 to IL, 900 feet. Cirrus clouds
are never seen below the summit Of
Mount Blanc, which has an elevation of
Is, 744 feet.
Clouds are sometimes seen above the
summit of Chimborazo, which has an ell
ovation of 81, 424 feet. Gay-Lussac and
Glaisher, In their different balloon as.
cents to the height Of $4,000 feet, saw
cirrus clouds which appeared considera-
bly, above them. 1t is estimated that
the greatest height at which visible
clouds ever exist does not exceed ten
miles. 6

quite believe the story that they have

cepted the offer. All he stipulated for

4 Significant. Story.

A wealthy banker in one of our large
cities, who is noted for his large sub
scriptions to charities, and for his kindly
habits of private benevolence, was
called on by his pastor one evening and
asked to go with him to the help of a
man who had attempted suicide -
They found the man in a wretched
house, in an alley, not far from the
bankers dwelling. The front room was
cobbler's shop; behind it, on a mis-
cradle bed in the kitchen, lay the Door
shoemaker with a gaping cash in his
throat, while his wife and children were
gathered around him. ..,,.-
/. "We have been without food for
days" said the woman, when he re-
turned. "It's not my husbands fault.
He is hard working, sober man. But
he could neither get work, nor pay for
that which he had done. To day he
went for the last time to collect debt
due him by a rich family, but the gen.
tleman was not at home. My husband
was weak from fasting, and seeing us
starving drove him mad. So it ended
that way" turning to the fainting, mo-
tionless figure on the bed.
The banker, having fed and warmed
the family, hurried home, opened his
desk and took out file of little bills.
ALI his large debts were promptly met
quarterly, but he was apt to be careless
about the accounts for milk. bread, etc.,
because they were so petty.
He found there bill of Michael
Goodlow's for repairing children's shoes,
$40. Michael Goodlow was the suicide.
It was the bankers unpaid debt which
brought these people to the verge of the
grave, and driven this man to despera-
ton, while, at the very time, the banker
had been giving away thousands in
charity.
The cobbler recovered, and viii never
want friend while the banker lives, nor
will a sman unpaid bill ever again be
found on the bankers table,
No man has a right to be generous
until his debts are paid and the most
efficient use of money IS not alone in
almsgiving, but to pay literally anu
promptly the people whom we employ.
