1t VIII Hasten the Downfall of Royalty
in ENGLAND

LONDON, December 15th.-No one not actually
in the British Kingdom Just now can 6pprecia
the enormous present. and probable political eff
feet of the developments in 1.-THE West End
Scandals as they are called 1t is the almost
universal expression that they may and probably
will result i'll upsettiDg not only royalty in the
Kingdom, but the rule of the privileged classes
as well. In other words, that they will end in
bringing about speedily a republic upon the
ruins of the present monarchy and the House of
Lords.
The fact that Prince Albert Victor, the eldest
son of the Prince of Wales, and therefore heir
to the British throne, is connected with the
scandals, either personally and criminally, as
freely charged, or as officially admitted, by the
connection with them of his intimate friends,
of cour.e makes their political effect most mo-
mentous. 1t is the opinion of every thoughtful
man in the Kingdom that when the scandals
are fully inquired into by Parliament and all
the frightful details become public property,
either Prince Victor viii be deprived of the
suceession-a proceeding almost impossible OF
conjecture-or that Queen Victoria will be Off
cially declared the last monarch of Great
Britain, and that republic will Immediately
succeed her death
That this proceeding will be quite feasible
and could be accomplished without disturbing
the peace of the -untry is believed and openly
discussed everywhere. The Prince of Wales is
quite sensible man and as closely in sympa' by
with public sentiment as was Dom Pedro in
Brazil and he would be as ready to gracefully

The Influenza Attacks the Rich and Poor
in Palace and Cottage.

LONDON, December 15th.-King Alfonso has
the influenza. In st. Petersburg, where the dis
ease was first detected it still RACES with dimin-
ished force. Quite number of Grand Dukes
are suffering from it, while the British, German,
Turkish, Chinese and Persian ambassadors are
confined to their rooms.
In Vienna the disease first appeared in the
hospital and laid low the professors, doctors and
nurses and then attacked the patients. Thence
it spread to the Opera House, dimned the lus-
tire of local stars played havoc with the chorus
and utterly spoiled the ballet, TO- nobody could

so far escaped, but the Russian and British En-

many's military attache, Major Won Dimes, is in
doleful condition.
IN Berlin. the victims include the famous
Professor Virchow. In Rome the disease has
overtaken and Frustrated the Russian Prince,
who fed from st. Petersburg to escape it.

writing from Anacoca, Vernon par

| wish to give your readers a
history of the manner in which /
managed to raise three bales of
cotton from two acres of ground.
First-The land was old pine
land, which had been 10 cultivation
Cor ten Of twelve years. and the
crop raised on the land before the
present crop was oats.
Second-In the management OF
the land I, in the first place, took
a shovel pillow and run the rows off
Al feet apart. I then filled this
furrow with fertilizing from the sta.
sbles and rakings from the tramp
yard, bedded out on that aud then
planted it first Monday in April.
Third cultivated it as follows:
When it was large enough to work
/ ran q scooter pillow around it and
chopped it oat to q stand. After
this | used the scooter fastened to
q solid sweep. and whenever the
middIes became grassy or needed

the wet weather, that was all the
cultivation that it received.-N. O.
