Fontevrault and its abbey lie three miles
rom the river bank, the road thither pass
ing up gradually narrowing valley; with
green fields of gentle decliyity sloplng
down on either side. 1t is quaint little
city of 900 inhabitants. It's streets are
stonier than those or Belgium's capital IN
the days Of Waterloo, and so crooked that
the stranger can scarcely find his way
from end to end without guide. Along
the middle of all those not touched by the
wand Of modern progress there trickles a
little stream fed from the sloping sides, as
when, in the dark ages men first began to
build towns and dispose of springs, streams
and waste by some form OF sewage. The
diligence deposits the passenger mt little
aubergo of unknown antiquity in which
dining room, waiting room and kitchen
are ineStricably blended and If chilled

about Fontevrault were once covered with
dense forests, of which only part remain,
having given way TO orchards, meadows,
and vineyards. In these woodlands the
people of the twelfth century and probab-

TO guide them homeward it was the custom

tail, lantern-like tower of the chapel of st.
Catherine sent cheerful eaulgence TO show
the direction of the village, This little
chapel one of the most unique ornaments
of all this ancient region is treated with
no more respect than the rest. 1t has en-
tirely lost its sacred character and become
the home and workshop of a wheelwrignt.
On one side of the room, which was the
place of worship, found wheels in various

ces, including an open cupboard with the
ancient dishes set ON edge to show their

under the lantern there was litter of hay

market All this was shown me by a stol-
id youth in blue frock, the rest of the
family being absent on their Sunday hol-
iday, who considered himself amply re
wardcd with two soma.

A great sensation has been excited in
court circles at Berlin, by a rumor which
has arrived from Naples, via Vienna, that
the widowed Princess Frederick Charles
of Prussia, has contracted a morganatic
marriage with Captain Won Wogenhelm,
one of her equerries. The princess, who
is now in her 10th year, is the youngest
sister of the duke of Anhalt, and the du-
ches of Saxe-Altenburg. She was mar
ried at the age of seventeen to tho late
Prince Frederick Bharles and has four
children, one of them the duchess of Con
naught. The princess is a very clever and
most charming woman, and is highly ac-
complished.

THE PRoHIBITIoNIsTs of Allegheny
City, Pa, evidently do not believe in
keeping the church out OF politics. The
cold water people held a meeting last
week, which was opened by prayer
they then decided to send communi-
cation to every minister in the city re-
questing him to preach a sermon on
prohibition en- the Sunday preceding
election. This may be proper enough
request, but it would have been Just as
well if it had not been made. Prohi
bitionists are politicians just as much .
Republicans or Democrats are poIiti-
clans; and they get down into the dirt
of party work quite as deeply as the
members of other organizations who
are striving for Office or for the estab-
lishment of ideas or principles. The
pulpit can teach morality and temper
ance without advocating party.

As WILL be seeL by reference to a
telegram in this issue of THE HERALD
The United Supreme Court has handed
down decision, overruIing an opinion
delivered by the Supreme Court of
Illinois as to the right of State Legis-
Iature to pass laws for the regulation of
interstate commerce. The Illinois
court, it seems, held that law was
valid which assumed to regulate the
charges made by a railway which went
beyond the borders of the State. The
United States Supreme Court reverses
this decision, holding that State law
designed 10 regulate charges cannot ap-
ply to interstate traffic, as such ap-
plication would trench upon the Con-
stitutiOnal powers of Congress aud be a
damaging restriction of the freedom of
traffic. In other words, the right of a
State to regulate the carrying trade of
the State is recognized, but one State
will not be permitted to interfere with
the traffic of another. For instance, a
railway Can accept goods in one State at
whatever rate it please for transporta-
ton, and carry them across another
State into third, and the middle State
annotinterfere to regulate the charges
within its borders The question in
volved was one of State rights, and the
court has seemingly rendered decision
which protects the rights of State and
also those of the general government.

is insane now, but was sane when he
committed the crime. The consequence
is, the fellow must be tried for murder,
and if coveted, hanged. There will
be less objection to murderers working
the insanity dodge, If jurors will find
that the criminals went insane after the
killing was done.
