The Crown Princes Children.

The prince, who is as witty as he is affabe
and good natured, is famous for numberless
smart sayings in official and private inter-
course. A few of the numerous jeux desprit
attributed to him will show the bent of his
81 tightly and high principled mind. When
Prince William, his eldest son, was sent to
school at Cassel, the head master of the
gymnasium inquired whether the future heir
to the German crown was to be addressed
royal highness by the teachers. ''Good
heavens, no." exclaimed the judicious father,
''do not burden him with heavy title all
his age. He will be oppressed by the weight
of it early enough in life, l can tell YOU
And so Prince William was you'ed Ito imi-
tate German phrase, like the other young
men, and had his full share of the schools
labors and discipline, as well as oil the rough
handling religiously dealt to new corners by
the elder boys What knowledge of life
German princes are able to acquire by thus
early mixing with their equals in age, if not
in rank as matter of course stands them i'll
good stead in later years.
Some time anterior to this instructive little
incident, Prince Henry-then a small boy, at
present an intelligent captain in the I'M
perial navy-objected to his ordinary ablu
tions in the morning. Finding him refrac-
tory beyond her powers of persuasion, the
crown princess reported the young offender
to his father, who took his measures without
saying much about it. On the following
day. as the boy came home from his drive,
ne complained to his father that the sentinel
at the door had not paid him the usual
courtesy of presenting arms. ''Of course
not" was the reply. ''Prussian sentinels do
not notice unwashed boys" Never again
did crestfallen Henry refuse to be led up to
the useful basin,--Berlin Cor Inter Ocean.

A Cafe in Munich.

If one enters the cafe THAT is, one in which
no meals are served at 1 o'clock, he will
probably find the place empty, the walters
and mattresses Longing about, OR else ar
ranging with q loud clatter the cups, saucers
and spoons on the little marble topped tables.
Near the door are hung up the files of the
papers for which the cafe subscribes.
English, French and Italian papers are to
be found almost everywhere, Austrian and
German papers in abundance of course, and
occasionally one runs across a stray New
York paper. On entering, one takes from
the hook the paper he wants, or else asks a
waiter to bring it to him. Then he sits down
at one of the tables, and Immediately a
waiter, with pot of coffee in one hand
and similar pot of boiled milk in the
other, rushes up and asksi "How do you
wish it?' Your preference for strong or
middling stated, he pours out your portion
with great skill and exactness Then pick
ing up your paper you sip your coffee and
watch for arrivals. A glass CT water accom-
panies the coffee, and with this one supply
you may stay as long as you please and read
all the papers in the room. The first arrivals
are generally elderly gentlemen, who like
their coffee Immediately after dinner As
they generally come to the same cafe regu-
larly, the wal ters soon know them and bring
them, without being asked, the accustomed
paper. These old gentlemen run through a
goodly number of journals with practiced
eye and then depart-one cup Of coffee being

Invalid Visitors in California.

But it is hard to decide whether the man
who comes out here sick and goes home well
OF the man who comes out here well and has
such good time he goes home sick is the
most effective advertiser. OF course, we
really make more money out of the sick
people than out of the well ones. We may
lose on the well ones. Hospitality is expen-
sive, whereas doctors and drug stores and
delicacies suited to sick people are all pro-
ductive Of pecuniary profit and bring money
here. We give them climate, of course, but
climate does not cost anything, however valu-
able health may be to them.
There does not seem to be any improperly
in sending i'll big bill to a sick man. He
comes cut ready for it and he expects to pay,
Yet he has no fun and precious little comfort
when he is i'll. But when a fellow is well
enough to go down in the office of hotel and
kick about the extras everybody seems anx-
ious to make him comfortable. A man who
is well and has a good time comes back again.
A man always returns to the place where he
had a good time; but man who has gotten
over a serious attack of sickness here is liable
never to want to come back. And there are
after all great many more well people who
want good time than sick people who want
to find q recuperatiye climate. Perhaps it
would be better to drop our cry about the
climate and make our motto "a Good Time, y

Lees Attack at Gettysburg.

Gen. Slocum commanded the right of tho
Union line at Gettysburg, having his head
quaters on Culp's hill. In speaking of Get
tysburg Gen. Slocum said:
SIT was undoubtedly the greatest battle of
the war. Gen. Meade said to me on the field
that if Lee attacked him at certain point
he would beat him. 1t is singular fact that
the attack was made in just the way that
Meade wanted it, and Pickett's charge was
delivered at the very point that Gen. Meade
indicated in his conversation with me- was
somewhat apprehensive regarding the result
of the fight, fearing a successful flank move
ment by the enemy. If Jackson had been
there this would undoubtedly have been at
tempted. "-Brooklyn Eagle

know that deep within your heart OF hearts
You hold me shrined from common things,
And that my step. my voice can bring to you
A gladness that 10 other presence brings.
And yet, dear love. through all the weary day
You never speak one word of tenderness.
Nor stroke my hair. nor softly clasp my hand
Within your own. in loving, mute caress.
You think. perhaps, should be all content
To know so well the sacred place hold
Within your life, and so you do not dream
How much long to hear the story told.
You cannot know, when we two sit alone.
And tranquil thoughts within your mind are
stirred.
My heart is crying like tired child
For one fond look, one gentle, loving word.
1t may be, when your eyes look into mine.
You only say. How dear she is to me!''
OH could but read it in your softened glance
How radiant this plain old world would be!
Perhaps. sometimes, you breathe secret prayer
That choicest blessings unto me be given,
But il you said aloud, God bless thee, dear"
should not ask greater boon from heaven
But should you say. Through thee my life is
sWeet,'
The dreariest desert that our path could cross
Would suddenly grow green beneath my feet
Ills not the boundless waters ocean holds
That give refreshment to the thirsty flowers,
But lust the drops that, rising to the skies.
From thence descend in softly falling
showers,
What matter that our granaries are filled
With all the richest harvest's golden stores.

But famished stand before the close barred

In that true love which crowns our earthly
lot,

For loves sweet tokens and receive them not

Strong Drink.

For thirty-fve years, says Cardinal Man
ming, I have been priest and bishop in
London, and now approach my eightieth
year. and have learned some lessons, and
the first is this: The chief bar to the
working of the Holy Spirit of God in the
souls of men and women is intoxicating
drink. I know of no antagonist to that
good Spirit more direct, more subtle. more
ubiquitous, than intoxicating drink.
Though have known men and women de-
stroyed for all manner of reasons, I know
of no cause that affects man, woman. child,
and bone, with such universally of steady
power as Intoxicating drink.

A Moorish Scribe in Tangier.

One day passed scribe or writer, seated
upon the ground with pen and inkhorn, writ
ing letter for another Moor beside him, who
was debating the contents. l thought it
would be a pleasant thing to send a greeting
to my friends beyond the sea in pure Arabic,
but on my return a few minutes later the
scribe had disappeared. One thing did not
see in all Tangier, and that was eye glasses
Or spectacles. They may be worn, but failed
to notice any. Across the little street from
our hotel was a schoolroonl, presided over by
a gray bearded Moor, seated cross legged
upon the floor, surrounded by twenty or thirty
little boys from to 10 years Of age Some
had states and some had books, but all were
studying and repeating, each for himself in
loud sing song tones, verses from the Koran,
all the time swaying their little forms to and
fro. This was the only method of education
that we saw. The Jews, however, have
schools for their youth, where the boys are
taught English and French. The Spanish and
Arabic are the languages generally spoken
by the people.-G. P Gates in Boston Trans

Difference of Opinion.
Stl1dants of hunanity arc never. at q loSe

Students of humanity are never at loss
for subjects on which to exercise their pow
ers of mental analysis. Here, for instance,
is Anthony Chabot. of Oakland, Cal, who
endowed many charities, but declined to es-
tablish home for INDECENT old men upon
the ground that man generally owed his
indulgence to laziness or bad habits. He gen
erously enriched charities for women and
children. however. On the other hand, Nine
Boucicaut, Partisan philanthropist, left a
home for old men, giving as a reason that
old men are the most helpless of creatures,
while old women manage to get along some
how. All of which goes to sustain the phi
losophy of tho man who remarked that it
was blessing everybody didn't think alike,
as in that case every body would fall in love
with his own wife--New York World.

There were never so many books in the
world as there r now, and never were
mankind so gregarious. In fact, now, a
thing of privacy is almost unknown, and
hardly conceivable; people live under one
another's noses, and looking down one
another's throats. The newspapers tell
all that is, and are accused of telling even
more. sometimes. The windows of our
bedrooms are at the mercy of passengers
in the elevated trains. If distinguished
man Is i'll, we pass u days and nights at
his bedside, and watch the operations of
his physician and surgeon; If there hap
pens a war at the ends of the earth, it is
fought at our own hearthstone, and the
map of the scene of the conflict is drawn
oil u dining table. The obscurest muir
derer or swindler is our familiar compan.
ion, and we discuss the domestic affairs of
European ~sovereigns as confidently as
those of u nex door neighbor.-Julian

Who do | think are the most successful
smugglers? Tit sleek faced, moon eyed
Celestials, most emphatically. There is
no portion of a vessel or it's cargo sacred
or safe from the manipulations of the
%rascals. They have the deadly drug
plated in their queues. quilted in their
clothing, packed in the cork soles of their
shoes, and tucked away in the soft, cling
ing folds of their silk handkerchief.
They have false bottoms and sides to their
camphor wood trunks, false bottoms to
their cooking utensils. and they are false
all the way through. They will construct
material to resemble coal. fill the interior
with opium and place it in the coal
bunkers until all suspicion is allayed and
the steamer discharged; they construct
tin boxes to fit around masts and cover
their deception with false mast coats well
calculated to deceive the inexperienced
eye of a landsman. They will store it
away in boxes of tea, cover it up with
preserved ginger. and have it they will.

In the Cause of Science.

A man went down from Paris to
Auteuil a few weeks ago, and, hiring a
room in a secluded part of the city, shut
himself up in it with a quantity of provi-
sions. He stuffed the kevholes with
paper, pasted pGrcr ovel the window
panes, and in otnr ways manifested a
desire for secrecy Efter he had remained
there several d the inhabitants told
the police about him and the doors were
burst in. 1t was then found that he was
inoculating three terriers with his own
blood in order to ascertain whether a bite
that he had received from n dog was likely
to prove fatal. He explained that he was
experimenting in the cause of science, and
expected to discover some means by which
every man could be his own Pasteur.-

The Very Useful Cont.

Pennies, so long despised in the south
and west, are now demanded by those sec.
tions so eagerly that the Philadelphia
mint, the only n manufacturing minor
coins, cannot keep up with the demand.
Three million pennies were made at the
mint last month. but If double that num-
Der had been produced it is probable they
could at once have been placed in circula.
ton. With the influx of common, vulgar
copper pennies in the extravagant west
and the aristocratic south. there is a drop
in the general prices, particularly of small
articles. This, while benefiting the buy.
ers, will also do good to merchants by in.
creasing consumption to a very decided
extent. Pennies are very good things.
particularly if one has enough of them,
and their widespread introduction all over
the United States. though rather late in
coming, now seems assured.-Trade Re-

and second class, roof cheaper; first class
fare 10 p~fennings, or less than A cents
from end to end of the route. and 10 pfen-
nings for shorter distances. The horses

Catching Monkeys with Beer.

At Darfur, in Africa. the monkeys are
said to be so i~nordinately fond of a kind
of beer made by the natives that the bev-
erage is used by treacherous man as a
means of capturing their u~nsuspecting
relatives. Cans of beer are placed within
reach. and when the convivial monkeys
have become so thoroughly inebriated
that they fail to know the difference be-
tween the man and the ape the negro
takes the hand of one of them, in all good
fellowship, and leads him off. The others
naturally follow him, and so good-by to
their liberty.-Once a Week.

Drift of Ocean DerelIcts.

Everett Hayden, of the photographic
bureau, in a recent lecture before the
Franklin institute, gave some interesting
data concerning the remarkable drift Of
ocean derelicts. For example, tie ship
Ada Iredale caught fire from spontaneous
combustion, was abandoned, drifted 2,423
miles in eight months, was towed into
port and continued to burn for eleven
months longer; then was repaired and
made into a handsome bark, which is
doing good service in the Chinese trade.
Another vessel drifted 1881 miles in eight
months and ten days.-New York Tribune.
