A CURIOUS fact noted in connection
with the epidemic of grip still preva-
lent in London is that it has almost
wholly spared mem bers of the dramat
and musical profession. Inasmuch as
such persons do not enjoy any advan-
tage over the rest of the community in
the matter of hygienic surroundings,
the most likely explanation of their
exemption is that the constant use of
the vocal organs tends to fortify them
against the Judgment of the grip germs.

A Burst Of ROYAL Temner.

King William Ill. Of the Neither
lands, who died a few days ago. was
in his best days a man Of fri9itfnl
temper. The person who excited him
above all others was the lank, phIeg-
matte Thorbecke, who left the desk of
a Utrecht professorship to become Il
minister OF state. The king expressed
his contempt for Thorbccke by always
addressing him as Sir Professor" In
1870, while William was drifting
swiftly toward an alliance with France,
in order that he might avenye the
wrongs all Dutchmen feel they have
sustained at German hands. the PRO
fessor" was selected to convince the
king that his people would not support
him in such a course. Thorbecke en-
tered the kings bed-chamber with his
hands behind him on the morning of
the day of the decision.
Good morning. Sir Professor. What
is the news?' asked the king.
Nothing special, sire; only the peo-
pie of The Hague are talking good
deal Of nonsense" said Thorbecke,
with diplomatic deliberateness.
"Humph! Concerning my minis
ters?"
mo, sire,'' droned on Thorbecke.
concerning YOU"
Concerning meP" shouted the king,
'and what, 0 honored professor, con-
corning me?"
Sire, I hardly wish to repeat it,
II
Enough! l wish to hear it.'
well, sire, the people of The Hague
say you are as crazy as loon"
Bif! Like a shot the short, heavy
body Of the king bounced from the bed
10 the floor. Purple and speechless,
he caught UP a great silver inkstand to
throw it at Thorbecke. His hand be-
came entangled for moment in the
bed curtains. Thorbecke strobe up to
him, thrust down his keen white face
to the level of the kings eyes. and said
in tone of icy indifference:
'.And if you strike me with the ink
stand the people OF The Hague will be
right"
The king dropped the inkstand in
the curtain that had caught it and
glowered at the professor, who has
tened to pile reasons on reasons WHY
the Netherlands should remain neutral
during the Franco-German war. A
few hours later, in the presence of all
the ministers. William III. tore into
bits aud stamped on the declaration of
war which he had all but forced on his
unwilling subjects.
