the guide pointed out faint green tinge In
the yellow sage brush and said 'Toh," which
means water" but it did not mean that
there was any water there; it only meant
that somewhere up the mountain near by
there had recently been water and might yet
be.
SO we climbed half a mile or more-it was
like riding up mountain of crumbling
chalk-and underneath a large cliff found
two holes scooped out by Indians hatchets,
containing gallon or so of water to each,
the water almost blood warm. Our horses
drank it in few minutes, it filled again,
and so by long waiting we got enough for
them and to fill our canteens, and once more
reached the bottom of the mountain and
struck into the desert Five hours more of
toiling across sand brought US to another
faint green stripe on the landscape, and by
signs and few words tie guide indicated
that three miles up the adjacent mountain
there was a spring that usually contained
water at this season of the year. But as we
turned up the canyon we met a small band
of Navajos driving before them their little
herds and to the guides question they re-
piled that the water was dIied up to one
single puddle, and that was Hohkawah Ri

goats had been bathed in it for month The
animals drank with shifts and brute protests,
and swallowed few mouthfuls, enough to
keep me sick for the rest of the afternoon.
We Travelled on till s1ndown, and another
faint green tinge on the landscape was
crossed, and the guide intimated that there
was water somewhere up the red and arid
looking mountain side. We toiled upward
for thousand feet, to point where lime
stone rift broke across the sand mountain,
and there we entered sort of cave and
found a pool of cold water.

DoINGS OF ROYALTY.

The Prince of Wales, though many
times a colonel, is obliged to pay more
attention to his regimen than his regi-
ments.
Queen Christina, regent of Spain,
while at San Sebastien spent much of
her time in driving spirited four in
hand team harnessed to an English
break.
The shah has fallen in love with the
portrait of Nine. de Pompadour. A
Persian magnate in Paris has been
charged to collect all the books and other
documents he can find about her, with
whatever pictorial images he can hunt
up, and send them on to his sovereign.
When the Austrian emperor saw the
review at Spandau while visiting the

time that the smokeless powder which
was used with such effect had been in
vented by an Austrian apethecary and
offered to the Austrian government but
had been declined.
Prince Henry of Prussia, the kaiser's
brother, is the idol of the German naval
service. He is the "Unser Heinrich" Of
the navy, just as his imperial father
used to be the ''Unser Fritz" of the
army, and countless stories are told to il
lustrate his good nature, his devotion to
his profession, and his physical proves.
Princess Louise Of Wales bore three

Fife, and after the wedding breakfast
she was Duchess of Fife, the queen hav-
ing created her husband Marquis of Mac
duff and Dukeiof Fife.
