that spring will soon be- with us with all

The Austrian Succession.

BERLIN, Feb. 9.--In the lower house in
the Prussian diet to-day the emperor's
civil list passed q second reading after
debate In which the progressive party en-
phatically protested against increasing
the imperial allowance by 8, 500 900 marks.
They had no difficulty In proving that the
wealth of the imperial family is al
ready. enormous, the emperor. having
nue. " Of 1880 600 ~ marks, ark i" but also
other resources from his family domain.
Hofkammer, which administers the do
mains. Is charged with the care of the
crown edihces, forests and lands. The
collection of rents for lands are 50 exten.
sive as to require division into seventy
seven stewardships, each comprising q
number Of foremen. The supporters OF the
bill could not show any necessity for the
increase of the imperial income. They
rested their demand upon the argument
that as the emperor's funtions and work
was increasing his revenue ought to be
enlarged.
The state of the health Of the emperor
is again delicate. with the renewal of Sc
we're weather. His ear troubles have been
aggravated. DR.. Bergman has been ape.
cially summoned three times this week.
The emperor rises at o'clock. He
makes bis children share his own severe
regime. The princesses are aroused at D
o clock and often breakfast with their
father at 6 80. Their lessons begin at z
o'clock.
The crown prince has Just obtained his
first grade In the army, having been ap-
pointed gefreite,. a position similar to
that OF corporal. He has now his own
suite of rooms and household. Twice
daily he is instructed In military drill
with his brother. He is allowed one and
one-half hours daily for play.
BERLIN, Feb. 9-In discussing the
Austrian succession 'he press expresses
the opinion that the emperor Francis
Joseph will recognize the validity of pro-
visions of praRmatic sanction, that only
in the case of total extinction of the male
line. shall successor devolve on female.
VIENNA, Feb. 9.-The Vienna court

Joseph avoids the succession difficulty.
The Archduke Francis, the presumptive

quietness and obscurity. The emperor de.

And now comes joe Crabbe who ex.
presses wish to be buried with Vic
Trevttt on Mamalouse island below The
Dalles, but he can never get there. As
the burial place OF the Indians IL is sacred
to their Names, II is their Walhalla
and from thence they enter the happy
hunting grounds where there Is no rain OF
hail or any snow. AL! Indians buried
there have this peculiar advantage, as
is we'll known TO the old pioneers and
others acquainted with them. Many,
many long years ago, long before the
snort Of the locomotive or the piercing
screech of the steamboat wriste awoke
the echoes of the ''boundless woods where
rolls the Oregon" two men sat upon q
rock near The Dalles, on calm summer
evening, discussing the future and its
dread mysteries. Mamalouse island was
before them. Their topic was the abode
of future bliss beyond the grave. This
naturally led to still graver thoughts. and
problem. These men both were well
acquainted with st. Peter, the keeper OF
the gates of paradise, and knew him to
be q good hearted saint, overhowin9 with
kindness to the old pioneers, many oi
whom any one more strict would never
have admitted within the gates These two
men we're Vic Trivett and George Kuaugs.
As they sat and thought the seriousness OF
the situation vastly impressed them. AT
last George spoke up; Vie" said he,
I've struck it," "Well," says Vic."

is the idea As all the Indians buried on
yonder island go to heaven for sure. what e

agreement with you here: Whichever
of us passes in his cheeks first, the other
agrees that he shall be buried on this
island. You see one white man might
sneak into heaven along with the Indians,

arrangement was consummated. Vic

Tho Monster OF Mono.

The Homer Index says il has universally
been believed thai no creature of any kind
can exist in the waters of Mono lake: but
Judge MattIy explodes this notion. Last
Sunday he saw strange creature Topping
about 10 the shallow water near the shore.
The thing seemed to open and shut like q
spy-glass, at its longest It was about six
feet In length and two feet in diameter.
IL resembled an enormous leeca more than
anything else. and apparently propelled
itself by drawing in air and forcing it
out behind. When inflated 1t was egg
shaped and sat upon the water like q bell
buoy. No Aippers or fms of any dcscrip-
tion were visible, nor anything that re-
sembled mouth. The orifces through
which il evidently inhaled air could not
be seen. The judge descNbed il as dis.
