A Royal Welcome,

The description of Prince Nikolaus' re.
cent return from St. Petersburg to his
loyal subjects in Montenegro reads Ikea
leaf from a medimval chronicle. The
princeling had made visit; in the Rus
sian capital for the purpose OF letting
the czar4 Of all the Russians pat him on
the back. After according the prince
ling the proper amount of embracing,
bullying and feting, which usually takes
place between big and little sovereigns,
the car started him home on the 'impe-
rial yacht Greif. The princeling landed
at Cattaro, mounted q horse, and, with
few of his most important officials,
rode off toward Montenegro, while his
family and attendants followed in car
riages. At the border a vast crowd of
his subjects awaited him. As soon as
he came in sight they shouted and
cheered and thanked God that he had
lived to come back to them.
~ just on the boundary line the princeling
dismounted, uncovered. made the sign of
the cross three times and prayed. Every
one in the vast crowd before him did the
same, At the close of his prayer the
princeling put on his hat. Every one in
the crowd did the same. Then the prince.
ling shouted:
"God help you, men of Montenegro"
'Welcome is your return, o prince!"
answered the crowd.
"How goes the world with you, o
brothers" asked the princeling. "What
is the news in my beloved Montenegro?
How is your health? How are the crops!
Does the drought again threaten them?''
While the crowd were answering these
inquiries the carriage of the royal family
crossed the border. The shouting and
we'll wishing which had greeted the
princeling were repeated. The Princess
Militia was received with the loudest
cheers of all, and many of the men in
the crowd kissed her hand, the first
hand they had ever kissed in their lives,
for in Montenegro it is customary for the
women to kiss the hands of the men,

Ex-Empress Eugenie's Poor Health.


The ex-Empress Eugene, once the gay
and dazzling sovereign lady toward
whom tho eyes Of all Europe were
turned, is said to be more than usually
infirm this season, and spends great
portion of her time in silence and med
itation, whether she is lodged in her own
home or is visiting at the mansion of
some friend. When her fits of gloom
come on she is capable Of remaining
sleepless, speechless, without eating,
drinking or noticing any one around
her for twenty-four hours at time. Per-
suasion and persistent attempts to bring
her to sense of her surroundings only
make her case worse.
1t is as if she were communing with
the dread phantoms of her past, and as
if they held her attention to the exclu-
sion Of all other things in the universe.
When the fit is over it may be succeeded
by one Of devotion such as only Spanish
women can go through, devotion which
seems to leave the very soul PROSTATE.
The remnants Of her wardrobe, which
she was allowed to remove from Paris in
1876 and 1877, produced much of the
fortune on which she lives today and the
money which she has expended on the
splendid imperial mausoleum. OF furs
alone, at the time of the empires down
fall, she had $4,000 worth deposited
with the crown fur keeper. and others
worth as much more with intimate
friends. It has been estimated that the
Empress Eugene possessed at the time
of the empires greatest grandeur $780,
600 worth of furs.-Paris Letter in Phila-
delphia Press.

other. The apparatus was in very bad
condition in consequence of this haste,
but still all the tests were interesting.
The first trial made was that of train
moving on. a single track and protecting
itself in front and rear by means of the
danger signals. AS the brush, connected
with batteries, touched the conductor of
the signal apparatus, danger signs were
instantly shown in the front and in the
rear of the train. The experiments were
especially interesting owing to their
graphic character and to the clear and
vivid explanations of the inventors. One
of the advantages of this autocratic sig
nal is that if anything occurs to the bat
teries, throwing them out Of order, the
signals instantly show danger and the
engineer is at once warned either of the
approach of train in a certain block, or
Of great reason for caution in his move
ments. Experiments were also made il
lustrating the manner in which train
on a single track could protect itself in
front and in rear, and how train on a
double track could protect itself in the
rear. r III. ss ~ .E,>..N -,
The most novel test, however, was one
where the approach of two trains on the
same track was shown, and their stimuli
taneous protection in both front and
rear. As the two trains rapidly neared
each other, the danger signal all at once
flashed up in front of them, and they
were quickly brought to standstill,
thus preventing a collision. Then as
one or the other train would move away,
the signal would give notice to the other
to come on, and they could thus be
worked in. the neighbornood Of eacl,
other with perfect freedom.
The inventors, Messrs. T. D. Williams
and J. s. Lacock, Of the Western Union
Telegraph company, were met yesterday
by railroad men and electricians, some
OF whom expressed the belief that the
invention would revoIut utionize the signal

Cougled Up q Watermelon Seed.

SOuSueu Up u "3CeruelOH SeeO.
On the 18th of June last, Walter, the
little 4-year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. T.
Fl. Reynolds, while eating a piece of
melon, had the misfortune to have seed
lodge in his windpipe. Medical aid was
called in and the doctors did all in their
power to dislodge the troublesome seed,
but without avail. A surgical operation
was considered, the doctors fearing that
the seed would be drawn down to the
lung. which would result in an abscess.
But it was finally thought best to leave
nature to take its course. The boy was
greatly troubled by this foreign body in
his windpipe, and the father, to encour-
age him in his efforts to cough it up.
promised him gun if he should expell
the seed and bring it to him. Last Sat-
urday, Mr.. Tom Reynolds led red fox,
which he has around the farm, and told
the boy to come with him, that they
would have G chase. The dogs were put
on the track, and away the father and
son went on foot, following the feet
footed and musical mouthed hounds.
Finally tho bog coughed and exclaimed,
"Papa, give me that gun; here is that
watermelon seed" Sure enough, he had
expelled it. Walter has experienced
great relief since and his parents are re-
ieved Of great anxiety.-Albany (Ga.)

In view of the controversy in the
field Of political economy which is
rife in our land, we consider the fol-
lowing extract from the Kolnische
Zeitung to be Of special interest:
'There is a department. of legis-
lation which formerly was wont to
elicit much vehement parliamentary
strife, but which, during the session of
the Reichstag just closed, occupied
very little Of its time. This is the
tariff question. This would warrant
the conclusion that the objections on
this ground are constantly losing in
force, and that the opponents Of the
policy Of protection have less inclina-
ton to be ever tinkering at the
existing tariff. The only attempt
which was made IN this direction was
the proposition to take the duties Of
grain; butt failed completely, where
by il appears that even this phase Of
the question can not serve any longer
to keep up the agitation, The said
proposition, proceeding from, the

ais, had its first reading At = poorly

After Modoc had made his famous victory
and won the silver cup that was worth $3.50.
and golden opinions worth very much more
IN value, there was strong desire among
the gentlemen riders, members of the Dumb
lane club and others to meet the owner of
the winner, who is no other than Miss Car
