Philadelphia Times.
The Archduke Macmillan, shot in
Mexico about the end of our civil war,
was in his younger days famous as a
singer and player on the guitar. While
travelling around On foot, a pastime
which was passion with him. he would
occasionally stop along the lonely road
and sing song or two or play some
charming air.
QOnce while thus engaged he was
heard by number of peasants. who,
quite ignorant of his identity, listened
to him with rapture and applauded him
with vIgor. ''If you come to the inn,"
said one of them, with that voice and
that touch, can promise you a good
glass OF wine, if not little more"
Falling in with their humor, Maxi
milan accompanied them to the village
tavern.
Here he rendered several choice
melodies with such skill and taste that
he had. so to speak, his audience at his
feet, and, though the tavern vintage
was not of the best. he drained glass
after glass with his new-found friends.
Finally he announced that he must

him determined to do so he took his hat
and went round among the auditors col
lecting fair sum, to which he added
something himself, and offered it to the
archduke.
Seeing the honesty of the motive, he
took the coins and put them in his
pocket, thanking them for their ap-
probation and Kindness. At that mo-
ment the village squire, who knew
Maximilian, happened to enter. Seeing
the crowd around him. and not knowing
the cause, he called out:
'Stand back, you clowns! Don't you
know it's the Archdnke Maximilian,
your prince?'
The tavern keeper fell on his knees
in his fright, and thinking his money
generosity was the crowning infamy OF
which he had been guilty, he asked that
it be given back.

heartily. Its the first money that has

WINNIPEG, Sept. .E.--President Fisher,

and gave assurance that work would be
started at once on the Winnipeg dS Du-
luth, for which a local charter has been
obtained. and he hoped some material
progress would be made before the
winter set in. Surveyors would be sent
out at once, and tine road located with

with him on his trip surveyor for that
express purpose. So soon as the line
was definitely located grading would be
commenced and prosecuted as vigor-

The amount of work that would be
done. however. would largely depend

was neglected. But she knew how to
play the Greek hymn. Whenever his
ma iesty returned from the baths she
struck it up.
/, Ii there is an air the king hates more
than another it is that one. He has had
to listen to it many times every day at
Athens for twenty-seven years. When
ever he goes to casino, concert or
opera, the orchestra gives him several
bars. In short. it is to him so feartully
hackneyed that it CRATES on his nerves
it, when it is being played, he cannot
think of something else, and thus shut
it out from his ears. But the profess
siOnai beauty stumbled, and got SO IN
volved in false notes that he could not
be deaf to her performance. He lost
his temper over and over again. and
sent message after message to the land
lord to beg that he would silence her
pianoforte. This the landlord feared
to do, as the lady spent money far
more freely than the potentate, and
drew to the hotel rich fools, who paid
for poor champagne as though it were
Widow Cliquot's best. The affair was
arranged by Greek from MarSeilles
making the acquaintance OF the lady,
and confiding to her some of his mai
esty's defects. One of them was born
hatred OF music, which he thought noise.
and the other taste for frumpish Ger
man women, who never painted, kept
quiet, and had not soul above knitting
and darning stockings. The beauty
changed her tactics accordingly. His
majesty was no longer bored by the
Greek air, and | should not wonder if
he sent an order to the diplomatic per-
son who induced his fair neighbor to
shut up her piano.

KANSAS CITY, Sept 1.-THE crippled st.

teurs, was beaten two games to-day in
style that made the fans grow weary. The
Kansas City boys did as they pleased with
the ball, and after pounding out as many hits
and runs as they thought would do to make
good average, they simply played with the
opposing team and shut off the games Both
games were featureless, as the pitching of all
four of the pitchers was very rank, and the
fielding of the visitors was simply farcical.
Meekin was especially poor at first base, and
missed nearly every ball thrown him. He
went to bat with listless air, and did not try
to hit the bali. In the seventh he hit an
easy one for a home run to the corner of the
field. Score:
