NAMED In the parlor. When Christina
re-enteFed the room she advanced to her
/ mother showing an engagement ring on
/ her finger and said In French, 81 have
/ the honor, madame, to present to Won
my future husband" and Alfonso GAL
lantiy kissed the hand Of his future
noOther-in-laW.
Christina and Alfonzo we're married
with high pOmp at Madrid. The wed
ding dinner was eaten on the vigil OF All
souls Day-and this was considered nm
lucky. She was presented to the Mad
rIenOs on q high holiday. There were
hne displays Of chivalrous galiantrv.
She was mistress at the Palaeio Real.
All the grand rooms which had been
furnished for poor little Mercedes her
predecessor, were refurniahed Tor her.
An American wrote OF her: 'sIf Christmas
laugh were not pleasant and communi
ca1Ve, her hair golden fleece and her
complexion transparent and beautifully
tinted, she would be plain, for her cheek
bones are prominent, her nose rstrousss
and wide at the nOstrjls, and her mouth
TO much eZpanded.Shs has The Magyar
taste for external sPlendor aef court,
II she can have her way, viii be lively
and magnificent, which would suit the
present generation Of grandees. She is
a very devout Catholic, and expected TO
one. Her voice is good, and she
eau MARBLE with exquisite feeling q senti-
mental lied, or provoke laughter by her
drou rendering of a comic song. 1t VII
be very nice for Don Alfonso to have q
wife who has gypay and garcounct
side to her character"
This was written In 1879. Alas, and
alasl the gay girl so happy, later on 30
beloved, is now a saddened widow, with
a distracted kingdom before her Of which
she Is regent. She is described now as
TALL, slender. aristocratically formed.
Without being decidedly intellectual,
she is clever. With the pride Of her
race, she has never made her
self popular In Spain.

Present sPhasesE OF the VFsman Problem
Popular Science Monthly.
OF late years this question of WO-
mans work has passed into another
phase, and the cruZ now is, not so much
how they can be provided with work ade-
quately remunerated, but how they can
fit themselves for doing it without dam
age to their health and those interests
Of the race and society which are bound
up with their Wsll-being. This is the
real difficulty, both Of the higher educa-
ton and Of the general circumstance
surrounding the self-suppOrt of women.
For the strain is severe, and must be, if
they are to successfully compete with
the stronger, both in
mind and body, IN intellectual grasp and
staying power, In the faculty of Origi-
nation, the capacity for sustained effort.
and In patient perseverance under ardu-
GUS and it may be distasteful labor.
But the dream and the chief endeavOr
of women now is to do the same work
as men alone have hitherto dOns-Which
means that the weaker shall come into
direct competition with the stronger
the result being surely a fOregone con
clusiOn. This is the natural consequences
of the degradation by women themselves
Of their own more fitting work; so that
a female doctor, for the present, holds a
higher social position than does the resi-
dent gOvsrness, while a telegraph girl
may DO a LADY, but a shop-gir can not.
For weI-paid intellectual work a good
education is naturally Of the first necea-
sity, and the base on which all the rest
is founded. Wherefore, the higher edu-
cation has been organized more as a
practical equipment than as an outcome
Of the purely intellectual desire OF WO-
men to learn where they have nothing TO
gain by it. For all this, many girls go
to GirtOn and Newman who do not
mean to practically profit by their edu
catiOn-girls who want to escape from
the narrow limits of the home, and who
yearn after the neutrality-suspicious. Of
college, ie-girls to whom the unknown
is emphatically the magnificent, and who
desire novelty before all things; with the
remnant of the purely studiOus those
who love Learning for it's own sake only,
Independent Of gain, EILdOs, freedom, or
novelty. But these are the women who
would have studied as ardently, and
with less strain, IN their own homes;
who would have taken longer time over
their education, and would not have hurt
their health and drained their vital eneE-
gies by doing in two or three years what
should have taken five or six; who would
have gathered with more deibeEati0n,
not spurred by emulation nor driven by
competition; and who, with energy SUI
per-added to their love Of knowledge,
would have made the Mrs. Somervilles
or Carolina Herschels, the Miss Burneys
or Harriet Martineaus. Of history. But
such women are Dot many; voluntary de-
votion, irrespective Of sslf-interest, to
art, literature, science, philosophy, being
one Of the rarest accidents In the history
Of women-as, indeed, must needs be IL
they are to fulfill the natural functions
Of their sex.

INTERFERING FOR THE ANARCHISTS.
The French Petition for Mercy.


Paris, December IN. Rouget, secretary
of the Paris munici pal council, has forW ard
to United States Minister MCLane, the
petition adopted by the council on NOvem-
Der 9TH, asking for his lntercessiOn with the
governor of Illinois IN behalf of the con-
demn6d Chicago anarchists. MCLan6 sent
the following reply: 'As the petition is
destined for the governor of Illinois, and
made with the object of sparing human life,
/ will not refuse my assistance If you per
5Ist IN demanding IT, but allow me to inform
you that IN the present case 1t is useless.
You can address yourself direct to the
executive of Illinois, who alone has
the power Of granting q pardon. With
out raising any objection to the accomplish
ment of your wishes, 1 beg you viii rest as
suEed that capital punishment is applicable
ia no state of the union to political Otfenses.
1t Is precribed only for OdIOus Offenses
against the public veal, such as murder and
rape committed under aggraVatllg ClrCuLn-
stances and reconciliation. In political
matters there exists IN the United States
moderation which even profound disagree
ment is pOWerIess to alter. In the discus
siOD of great political and social problems
touching the welfare Of the workers We pro
coed with such liberty, showing q spirit of
fraternity and tolerance which renders ViO-
leuce ineXcusable, and always prejudicial to
its authors. When majority prOuOunces
every one submits. If this great principle
of giving expression to the wilt of the ma
jOrity which forms the basis OF American
institutions be ignored, social order, formed
On liberty and fraternity, collapse and
society falls once more into chaos" Nc
Lane at ROuget's request, consented to
transmit the councils petition to Governor
Oglesby.

The department of state has received a
dispatch from the United States consul at
GOres DakO, in Senegal, Africa, announcing
the death in battle of King Sauna Lambefal
OF CayOr. The consul says that the king ap-
peared at IIYOmane, IN CayOF, with nuU-
Der of followers under arms for the purpose
of collecting a tribute to which he believed
himself entitled by treaty. The demand for
tribute was met with a refusal by the luhaOl-
5auts of the place, Whersupon some of mis-
followers began to piliage the town. The
merchants and traders telegraphed for aid
to the government of st. Louist0Wu under
French protection. The government sent
captain of the army and twenty five soldiers
to the scene of the trouble with instructions
to accommodate matters. Arriving at
IiVOmaus, the troops found the merchants
and travellers beleagured- A WOrdy altsrca-
ton followed between the troops and the
kings followers which was ended by the lat
ter, who fired several shots, killing a soldier.
A charge was ordered, and after a brief but
fierce engagement the natives fed, leaving
twenty dead on the field. They soon re-
formed however and made another stand
under the lead Of the king, but the latter
after a sword combat with the French lieu
tenant lasting twelve minutes, was run
through the body and killed, WheEsupOn his
followers gave up the battle and escaped in
to the interior.

Novel Waesr.

Denver Times
Animal Forks has recently been in
dulging In a novel exhibition. Some
one offered to lay arwsger that a burro
belonging to a local character could car
~ a load of 500 pounds a distance Of
800 yards. The offer was accepted by
an incredulous person. The day for the
trial was set, but before the experiment
came on the whole surrounding country
had grown interested, and people vent
for miles to see the exhibition. Excite
msnt ran high, and bets increased &C
cordingly until, if we may accept the
statement OF the La Plata Miner, there was
no less than $4,000 up on the outcome.
The load consisted of lead ore and base
bullion. When the pack was In place
and the donkey was given the word to
move he walked OF with as much ease
as If entirely unloaded, and arrived at
his goal without apparent difficulty.
If the load had been in wood It would
have been three times as large as the
tough little animal. If an ordinary
horse could carry as much It would walk
away with at least ton and half. Colo
RADIO produces many wonderful things,
but surely tie burrO is not among the
least wonderful Of her wonders.
