KINGS AND QUEENS.
A Good story or the German EmDe-
ror and other Royal Gossip.
From = Floreneo Letter.

From Florence Lstter.l
A short time ago the Queen of Italy
in the course OF q railway journey
stopped at a certain station and Was met
by the Mayor and municipal big wigs in
oil the glory of their robes of honor.
An elegant luncheon had been provided,
but the royal appetite was uncertain,
and the Queen requested tho OBJ
sequious deputation to get her a
glass Of wine, which was all that she re-
CURED. This was promptly brought, but
while drinking it a drop fell from the
glass Oh to her travelling dress. She at
once sought in her pocket for hand
kerchief 10 remove the stain, but the
worthy Mayor. whose daily vocation be-
hind the counter had possibly accustomed
him to tho purposes for which ladies'
seek their pockets, misunderstood the
motion Of the Queens hand. He sup
posed she WAS reaching for her purse,
and murmured, humbly, but earnestly
"Ah, no, your Majesty. l assure you
it is all paid for.
From a Berlin Letier.l
Stories Of the German Emperor are
always abundant, often uncompliment-
airy, and not infrequently apocryphal.
Here Is one which seems to have rather
better credentials than usual. One day,
1t runs, he invited a young lieutenant,
who is an excellent either player, 10 din
ner. The imperial family dimes at ,
o'clock, and after dinner the officer gave
a little concert on the either TO their
Maiestes. Toward 4 o'clock be asked
permission to retire "WhY SO
soon ?" graciously asked tine En-
peror. "Sire," replied the Ieuten-
ant, u return to my garrison tomor-
row, and [ have promised my sister to
come and say good by this afternoon at
her pension-nat" " You are a good
brother; but before You go you must
take coffee with us" Twenty minutes
later the lieutenant went with his sOye-
reign into the drawing when whom
should he see but bis sister sitting next
10 the Empress and surrounded by
three or four little princes. Like a
good German housewife the En-
press herself poured out the coffee for
her visitors. The conversation, varied
by music. was prolonged TIL tho eve
ming. when the Emperor said TO the two
young people that mo would like 70 keep
them to supper; Offering his ann 10 the
girl, the Emperor led the way into tho
dining room, while the impress follow
ed with the brother. IL Was Il very sm-
pie meal which was placed before them,
consisting of dish OF vegetables and 90
piece Of roast meat But 1t appeared
that it Was rather moro elaborta than
usual. for the amiabie Impress said
laughinely: You must not think that
we have always such luxurious suppers.
u is only when We have visitors that we
ara SO Qrnnd.
