KING AUMBERT'S BIRTHDAY.

To-day is the forty-tifth anniver-
sary of the birthday of Humbert 1,
King of Italy, which event is being
officially observed by the Italian
Consul, Mr.. +. A. Schaefer, by the
display Of the national flag at the
Consulate and at his residence.
The respect and popularity in
which King Humbert is held by his
nation, in justice to his enlightened
views on popular government and
his well known qualities of head and
heart, make every well-wisher the
advancement and national consoli-
dation of the Kingdom of Italy, hope
and pray that his life may be pro-
longed for many days to accomplish
the task before him.
This anniversary has in latter
years been more generally observed
in foreign countries, particularly
where italians have settled in larger
numbers, and we understand that
the Italian Government favors this
sentiment and has officially called
the attention of its Representatives
and Consuls abroad to this fact.
1t is q coincidence of note that
King Humbert's father, Victor EN-
manuel II, Of glorious memory, was
born on the same day of the month,
% years before, j. e., on the l4tl
of March, 1920.

B oArsp aRMaMsNrs oF EUROPE.

II is no exaggcration to speak Of
the European Continent as an arm
ed camp. From some returns which
have been prepared for the informa-
tion of the Austrian War Office we
get an idea of the marvellous rapid
ity with which some of the States
can now mobilize thcir armies
and rush them to and across
their frontiers. In the event
of war breaking out suddenly, or
absolutely without any warning,
what could Germany do? In seven
ty-two hours she could have 230,-
600 men, fully equipped, on French
soil; and at the end Of seven days
this number would be increased to
100000. She could in three days
put l20, 900 men upon Russian soil,
and in the same space of time she
could plant 100, 200 in Austria.
What could Austria do? She could
in three days carry 10000 into Rus
sia. Russia is not 50 well prepared
for rapid movement; but it is calcu
lated that she could bring TO the
Austrian frontier in three days 25,-
600 men, and by the end of seven
days 10000. France is already
well prepared for rapid movement;
and she is about to increase her
railroad facilities in the direction of
the northeast. Already she could,
it is thought, carry 100000 men TO
the frontier in three days and 700,-
600 within a week. When the new
arrangements shall have been COM
pleted, the calculation is that these
figures will be increased to 100000
and $4,000, respectively. OF
course, calculations may fail and ac-
cidents mar the success of the best
laid plans.
Ii is reasonable to conclude that
the cost of these vast armies must
be something fearful. The annual
cost of the whole is estimated at one
hundred and twenty millions of
pounds sterling (S600, 0,000.)
During the last seventeen years the
preparations for the great war that
is yet to come have cost the Powers
not under fifteen hundred millions
sterling(S7 800, 900, 900. )Such state
of things is disgrace TO the Chris.

A LESSON FOR G0SSlPS.

Last week very funny incident
occurred in one of the street-cars.
Several ladies were talking in rather
3 loud manner about preachers and
their wives. After indulging in this
sport for some time, they finally
came to speak of the wife of one of
the methodist churches prominent
pastor of all kinds of things were
said.-somc truthful, others the
boldest maginations. Ali said they
had never seen the lady but
heard she was = blonde, and all said
they would like to see her. All in
the car enjoyed the talk, none more
so than the lady talked about, who
happened to be sitting opposite
them. When she arrived at her
destination she pulled the bell to
stop the car, and having sense of
the ludicrous, went to the gossipers
and said: Ladies', you have ex-
pressed a desire 10 see me. Here
am. Let me give you piece of
advice. When next you gossip in
q street-car, don't do it in such a
loud manner, as it may be heard by
some one who will not enjoy it as
hugely rs / have. Good day. The
gossipers showed great astonishment
and chagrin, while the other passen-
gers laughed immoderately at the
proceedings Baltimore Ameri-
can.
