4 Princciy Host.

One of the most lovely of Alpine
health resorts is Bad-hreslth, hamlet
Of some half dozen houses built by the
side of a spring of mineral water. The
charm of the resort Is not, however, due
to its loneliness, nor to its healing
waters, but to the fact that its landlord
is Prince Ludwig of Bavaria, courteous
host, who in his management of the
place combines n lucrative business with
a most generous charity.
The prince, the eldest son of Duke
Macmillan and the brother of the en-
press of Austria, surrendered to his
younger brother, Karl Theodor, all his
rights as the head of the family, because
he wished to marry a lady of inferior
social position, with whom he had fallen
in love.
The marriage proved to be a happy
one, and to this day, though more than
thirty years have passed since they were
united, the princes manner to his wife
is more that of lover than a middle
aged married man. They have no chill
dren, and live for the greater part of the
year in a simple suite of apartments at
Bad-Kreuth, where. according to a
writer in The Cornhill Magazine, she diff
fuses brightness and happiness around
her, and he shows how prince may
earn an honest livelihood, and be the
first, not to receive, but to render aid.
The whole of the health resort belongs
to the ducal family. The servants are
theirs, and the entire management of
the place is under Prince Ludwig's SUI
perintendence. He ia his own butcher,
brewer, dairyman and baker.
During June, July and August Kreuth
is filled with southern Germans. who
pay literally for their rooms and board,
and make these months the princes
harvest time. During May and Septem-
Der the prince receives no paying guests,
but fills the house with those he calls his
friends" They are those who are too
proud 10 asS for charity, but need little
help-cfiicers depending upon their pay,
university students, poor professors,
struggling literary men and artists.
Two or three hundred Of these
"friends" are housed, fed and tended at
the hotel during May and September as
carefully as the wealthiest guests, and
that, too, without its costing them one
penny. IL at the height of the paying
season q room is left vacant, some poor
invalid Is invited to occupy il, and no
one can tel from the manner Of the host
or his servants that the new arrival is
not a millionaire.
Prince Ludwig never forgcts a face OF
a name, and has a pleasant word for
every ono, whether n paying guest or q
friend" His manner Is the same to ALL
the sympathetic greeting Of n courteous
host and the kindly greeting of n well
bred man.

FINALLY BECAME A WRECK.

Some of the Quakers who saw him be-
came much interested in the boy, believ-
ing him possessed of a noble gift, and
desired to have charge of his bringing
up. He was accordingly ;spprenticed to
Frankfort tanner, but he attracted SO
much attention, and SO many called at
the shop TO hold conversation with him
that his master became annoyed and
tried to discourage such curiosity. The
boy, therefore, began to shun questions
as much rs possible, and seemed by de-
grees to lose his singular gift. He drifted
into bad company and eventually became
a wreck.
Ills mother never allowed him TO take
any money for answering questions, be-
lieving that his visions were God given,
and that it would be wrong to turn them
to account pecuniarily. Wives whose
husbands had long been missing and
were supposed to have been lost at sea
or persisted in accidents, and others
whose relatives had disappeared would
come to him for information. OF those
still alive, he would tell how they looked
and what they were doing. On one oc-
casion a man asked him in jest who had
stolen his pocketbook, and was much
taken aback when the lad replied:
''No one; but you stole a pocketbook
from another man when in a crowd"
And the historian Of the boys wonder
full deeds states that such was the fact.
This is about all there is of the strange
narrative, which. like Sam Weller's love
letter, ends SO abruptly that the reader
wishes it were longer.-Pittsburg Dis

A BOYS SECOND SIGHT.
REMARKABLE GIFT OF A BOY WHO
LIVED HALF \ CENTURY AGO.

Found I'm " The annals of i'hiiadeiphia.'
He Saw His Father Chasing "a Jug-The
Incident of the Stolen Pocketbook-The
Seer Eventually Becomes "A Wreck.
Looking over Watson's ANNALS of
Philadelphia. published in 1880. came
across a remarkable story, which cannot
fail TO be of interest both locally and
generally, even at this late day. The
author says:
1.-THE good people of Caledonia have so
long and exclusively engrossed the fac
ulty of second sight that it may justly
surprise many TO learn that we also have
been favored with at least one case as
well attested rs their own. refer TO the
instance of Lii Yarnall. of Frankfort.
Whatever were his first peculiari,ies, he
in time lost them. lie fell into intern
perate habits, became n wanderer, and
died in Virginia, young man.
This remarkably gifted person was
born in Bucks county, Pa, and came
with his parents TO the vicinity Of Pitts
burg. The account of him contained in
the narrative before mentioned is in sub
stance rs follows:
When YGrnell was living near this
city, being then child only years of
age, as he was sitting i'm the house one
day he suddenly burst into fit of al
most uncomfortable laughter. His
mother asked him what pleased him SO
much. The boy replied that he saw his
father (who was not at home) running
rapidly down the mountain side, trying
to overtake a jug of whisky which he
had let fall The jug rolled part way
down the declivity, but was caught by
the old man before he got TO the bottom.
When the father reached home he con-
lirmed the whole story, to the great sur
prise of ell. after this the boy excited
much talk and wonderment in the neigh
borhood.

Verree, with other Quaker relatives OF
acquaintance from Bucks county
Verree, 70 test the lads miraculous
power, asked him various questions anC
among other things inquired what wa'
then going on at his own home In Bucks
county The boy described the house
which he had never seen; stated that i
was built partly of logs and partly o.
stone; that there was a mill pond in from
of the house which had recently beer
drained, and concluded with a descrip
ton of the people in the house, and O
two persons. man and woman, wh'
were setting on the front porch.
When Vorree reached home he in
quired who had been at his house at TIN
day and hour he had held his converse
ton with young YarnaI. He Learned
that there had been a shower at the time
and several of the field hands had gon
into the house to escape the rain: tn
persons on the porch had been faithful.

hair. AS to the mill pond, the men ha'
drained it in order To catch muskrats. II
short, every detail given by the boy wa
proven to be accurate.
The habit of the young seer, whel
asked to exercise his singular faculty
was to hold his head downward, oftel
closing his eyes. After waiting for som
time, apparently deep in thought, h
would declare what he saw in his visions
He was sometimes found alone in tn
fields, sitting on a stump and crying
On being asked the cause Of his grief h
said he saw great numbers of men en-
gagged in killing each other. Although
he had never seen q battle, a ship or
cannon, he described military and nava
battles as if he had been an actua
