most terrible hardships and braved many
deadly perils he finally discovered him
one day perched upon tree. He cut Off
his comb ard returned triumphantly:
Very well said Solina. Now must
have the hair of this Moorish king"
This king was man of colossal figure
and extraordinary strength. The most
valiant warriors could not look upon him
without feeling of terror. But the
prince, desirous OF pleasing the beautiful
Solna, challenged this redoubtable king
to mortal combat. He threw himself
against him, sword in hand. and received
severe wound. He rushed forward
again, and a second time he was
wounded. But his ardor was unabated.
He continued the struggle, and at last
he reached his terrible adversary. He
plunged his sword into his heart, cut off
his hair and carried il to Solna.

That was, indeed, difficult task.
Among so many million fishes, how could
he discover the one without scales?
But the prince was resolute. He be-
gan To fish and he fished the whole of
that day and the next day, and FOR weeks
and for months. The time assigned by
Solina had nearly elapsed, but he still
sought the wonderful fish with marvel
Gus patience. The evening before the
day which would end the three years
came at last, and, in his net, he discov-
cred wretched looking little fish, and on
examination, he found it was fish with
out scales. He carried it to Solina, who
said

you must ask the consent of the king,

The prince sent ambassadors to the
king, but presently thoy returned in a
great rage.

in5ultingly. He declared that he did not
understand our mission. His daughter

Is mocking us. Let her be cast into

Poor Solina was again locked up
without knowing the reason why.
She took her little bell and rang it vio-

cried.

And by its magic power. in spite of

prison and conducted her to her parents.
At sight of her the king and queen saw
they had been imposed upon. The
farmer and his wife confessed their de-

She married the prince, and they both
loved together happily to good old age.

Four locomotives to be run by soda,
which takes the place of fire under the
boiler, have been built i'll Philadelphia
They are for service on the streets of
Minneapolis, Mimi, where steam en-
gines are forbidden. The engine is about
sixteen feet long, entirely boxed in, with
no visible smoke stack or pipes, as there
is no exhaust or refuse. The boiler is of
copper, S4 1-2 inches in diameter and 10
feet long, having tubes running through
it as in steam boilers. Inside the boiler
will be placed five tons of soda, which,
upon being damped by jet of steam,
produces an intense heat. In about six
hours the soda is thoroughly saturated,
when the action ceases.
A stream of superheated steam from Il
stationary boiler is then forced through
the soda, which drives out the moisture,
and the soda is ready for use again. The
exsaust steam from the cylinders is used
to saturate the soda, and by this means
all refuse is used.
These engines are the first of their
kind that have been built in this country.
They will have the same power as those
used on the New York elevated roads.
Soda engines are used in Berlin and
other European cities very successfully,
and they also traverse the st. Gothard
tunnel, under the Alps, where the steam
engines cannot be used because the tun-
nel cannot be ventilated so as to carry

1t has been understood for some time
past that the mightiest sovereigns were
beginning to grumble at the expense of
their imperial and royal progresses. BY
dill accounts, ind ed, it is so enormous
that the most lavish must be staggered
when the bills are llid before hi.n. The
public has been told that the young en-
pcyor of Germany disburscd C40,000 in
presents of one sort or another among
the courticrS of st. Petersburg, leaving
mis- expenses ard "incidentals" aside {;
while the ear was yet more liberal. We
learn, therefore, without surprise, that
his imperial majesty is thinking twice
and again before accepting the invita-
tion to visit Greece at the time OF his Sis
ters marriage. Toll would be taken at
several points on that journey. II the
German monarch passed through Vienna,
oven though he did not stay at any cap
ital on his route, there would be deputa-
lions of welcome from the Austrian,
the Servian, and, doubtless, the Bulgar-
ian courts. II he took steamer from
Trieste, much more from Venice, the
king Of Italy would not fail to send a
galaxy of notables to do him honor And
the attentions, as we learn, signify a
rain of gold boxes" diamonds and
jeweiled orders. Then there is the Greek
court, and, above all the sultan. For the
latter visit of such Importance would
mean something like bankruptcy, and
this. fact supplies a magnanimous ex-
cuse for dropping the whole scheme.
The German emperor is checked by the
promise of such superb hospitality at
SCamboul as his Turkish brother cannot
afford. And he saves all pockets by
abandoning his notion.-I 7ndon Stan

A Courageous Young Woman.

A daring act has just been performed
at Montlucon bya young woman of 10
Nademoiselle Jobard, who is the daugh-
ter of cafe keeper. She had manifested
a deep interest in Pezon's menagerie
since it's arrival in the town, and it ap-
pears that the lion tanner, either through
pure fun or because Mademolselle Jobard
made light of his exploits among the
wild beasts, defied her to enter the
largest of the dens with him. The chal-
lcnge was accepted with light heart,
and all Montlucon turned to witness tho
spectacle.
Punctually at the time appointed the
daughter of the cafe keeper appeared on
The carpet attired in her best, and escorted
by Pezon she entered tine cage amid the
plaudits Of those who had assembled in
the vague hope of witnessing her demoli-
tion. Mademoiselle Jobard was slightly
nervous at first, but after few moments
she walked around tho cage with Pezon.

by the sudden vision OF herd OF ibex,

German srsaioaments I'm psris.

The Paris medical authorities are at
present conducting q crusade against the
sesqutpedalian nomenclature OF certain
chemical coneoctlons and medicamenta
which come from Germany. Among these
commodities are Antipyrine, Phenacetine,
and Sulfonal, which are manufactured
successfully in Germany, and after hav-
Ing been duly tested and analysed by
French chemists take place In local
therapeutics, being eagerly purchased by
Parisians, who are much given to the as
sumption of doses and stimulants at the
present moment. AS it has therefore
been found as impossible to boycott"
the "enemy's" drugs as 1t was to close
the market against his beer the medical
authorities of this metropolis have turned
their attention to the labels of the leu
tonics philters and potions. French peo-
pie will be allowed to convert their inte-
riors, as usual, into receptacles for all the
drugs in the German laboratories, but
they will take their medicine under Gallo
names
After all the medical authorities are
right for it appears that the familiar An
tipyrine has been christened by it's Ger
man manufacturers with the name of
"Dimethyloxquinzine." Another Greek
derivative of equally "learned length and
laundering sound" is used to denote Sui
fonal. In order to save the delicate Jaw
bones OF French ladies who require these
medicaments the learned academy of
medicine has proposed that doctors in
preparing their prescriptions for patients
should use the French or ordinary mans
Of the foreign drugs, and that chemists
should furnish them to customers in the
same way, taking care to write the sci
entific appelation of the medicine in their
books. 1t is thus hoped that the max
illary members of French patients will
be spared, and that the German origin
of popular drugs will be concealed as
much as possible.

Even in the court gossip of newspapers
published in different European countries
we find the pathetic hints of human love
and suffering which prove all men to be

Queen Christina. OF SPAIN we are told,
st the time of her marriage was an an
gular, hard-faCed, repellant woman,
whose manners offended those who ap-
preached her. But her passonat desire
that her baby son shall inherit his faith
er's throne has altered her whole char
Rcter, She is gracious and friendly; has
acquired fine tact, and her manners are
now as charming as they were once
unpleasing. She has subiugated tn
naughty grandees of Spain, and made them
loyal to their little king by her direct
personal influence alone. Every day Is
new battle for her boy; and so far she
has won every battle.
The czarina of Russia, several months
ago, with her husband ANA children, was
in a railway train which was wrecked by
conspirators. For some time she
thought her oldest boy was killed. The
result was that for time her mind was
affected; the dead boy was constantly
before her.
The empress of Austria, 1t is rumored,
owing to the suicide OF her son, has lost
her reason.
The queen of Sweden has long been an
invalid from some obscure disease. She
Is extremely fond of mnsic, and her hap
, pest hours are those when her sons sing
to her.
The most touching story which comes
out of the court surroundings Is that OF
the duchess OF Cambridge, aunt OF Queen
Victoria, who has just died at an ex-
tremely old age. her son, who is over
seventy years old, invariably came twice

her with family gossip. He never left

Many people are apt to think of roy

"a plan is on foot" says a correspon-
dent of New York paper, Ito make an
addition to Chicago's Lake Shore drive,
which, If carried out, will give this city
one of the finest and most extensive sys-
TENS OF boulevards and drives in the
world. The present idea is to extend the
beautiful drive which runs along the
lake, through the handsomest portion
of the north side and through Lincoln
park. This drive now stops at the north
end of the park. The new plan, which
Is well under way, is to extend it as far
north as Lake Bluff, twenty-five miles
north Of Chicago. This section Of coun-
try is by far the prettiest in the neigh
borhood. The fiat shores of Lake Mich
igan gradually slope upward until at
Lake Bluff they assume the shape OF al
most perpendicular banks, rising to a
height of 100 feet, and showing the
waters of the lake far below. heavy
rowth of timber stretches to the west,
while at other places it is broken by deep
ravines that open up unexpected
glim pses " the lake through the dark
foliage. The new drive will run along as
close to the lake as possible, and
through the villages of Evanston, High
land Park, the new military post, Fort
Sheridan, and Lake Forest"
