QUEEN VICTORlA'S JOKE.
She Makes a Clever Remark About Glad
stone to ascotch Girl.
New York World.1


Every year when autumn approaches
Queen Victoria has her trunks packed and
goes on pilgrimage the shrine of the late
Jonn Brown, at Balmoral. The quiet life
which her Majesty 10 generally leading
becomes then absolutely dull and greatly
exasperates her suite. From the windows
of her royal apartments the Queen can
glance at the white marble monument
on dear Johns tomb, and all her
time is devoted either the to memory Of
the" ever-lainented or the faithful
servant who managed TO crawl up to such
a high place in her royal affections. Once
in while, however, the dullest of all the
crowned heads in Europe feels dull her
self. Last year the parson OF Balmora,
who is daily guest at the royal table,
seeing her Majesty so bored. aud knowing
her weakness for everything Scotch, spoke
TO her of one of her tenants daughters.
who could dance the reel better than any
girl in Scotland.
The Young lady was ordered to appear
before her Majesty the following day.
When ushered into the Queens presence
her Majesty said: Il hear you can dance
the reel well. Dance"
There was nothing left for the young lady
TO do but To dance, and she did II so grace
fully that her Majesty's severe face almost
took on pleasant expression. =,
After the performance was over she asked
the girl if the Queen could do anything for

The young lady first hesitated, but sud-
denly replied. Indeed, your Majesty. you

Queen turned around and said: Dear

The Farmers In the south.
fNcw YORK Times

II ia generally understood that if the
third party IS TO be of much importance IN
the elections next year II must show its
strength in the South. Ii IT cannot make
n successful contest in that region this
fall--sufficient to make such States as
North Carolina. Virginia. Missouri. aud
Tennessee doubtful at least-then the
shrewdest political observers incline to the
opinion that it will only render Demo-
cratic victory in the presidential election
more certain. For 1T is plain that II the
Democrats can count on the electoral
votes of the South which they obtained in
1899. any division brought about by third
party in the North would be more In their
favor than in that of the Republicans. In
the next election there will be 4i4 electors
chosen. OF these the South Will furnish
1853. A majority will be 223, and with the
South there will be but Ga votes to be OBJ
tanned. Now, putting. aside the older
States, such as New York. New Jersey, Con
nectlcut, and Indiana, which were heavily
Democratic last year. and which would
furnish 81 votes. there are States III the
West where the Alliance is known to be
strong. and where the Democrats would be
sure TO get the most aid from third party,
that would make up the majority needed.
Take. for instance the electoral votes OF
Illinois. "a: Iowa. 49, Kansas, TO- M1chi-
gan, IA Minnesota, 8; Wisconsin, IL. Here
are ~ votes in half dozen western States,
every one of which has returned MAORI
tv Of Democratic congressman to the pres
ent House of Representatives. II is rea-
sonably certain that if there is
to be a farmers ticket in the field
in these States the Republicans will
find il harder to recover their SUI
premacy in them than the Democrats to
retain theirs. and that the chances of
the Democrats for getting their needed
Ga votes are much better than the chances
of the Republicans for reganlng the 81, all
of which they will need The facts are
clear enough, therefore, to make the de-
velopment Of the farmers movement IN
the South of the greatest interest. Last
year that movement showed good deal OF
strength there. The election Of Tillman
az Governor Of South Carolina was re-
earded rs a demonstration of formidable
power by the farmers. But now, as was
shown in our Charleston dispatches yestcr-
dav morning, there IS an open rupture be-
tween the farmers and their candidate Tor
Governor. Tillman is not In sympathy
with the third-party movement IN national
politics. He has taken occasion strongly
To denounce especially the sub-Ireasury
feature of the Cincinnati platform. The
leaders of the Alliance have accepted the
challenge thus thrown out to them. have
brought their ablest stump-speaker-Ter-
rell-from Texas. and he has invited I'LL
man to "a Joint popular discussion of the
third-party policy. The invitation has been
promptly accepted, and so we may look
forward to the real opening of the cam
paign of next year in the old southern
fashion.

THE WIFE OF JUNGLE REMUS.'
How joel Chandler Harris Met the Lady
lie Married.

In 1871 Joel Chandler Harris was the asso-
ciate editor of the Savannah Morning N0cs.
writes Annie Logan Carter In the LADIES
Home Journal and he lived at the hotel
where Miss Essie La Rose and her mother
were temporary guests. Her father was the
captain OF steamboat. ana his family
usually accompanied HIM.
Mr. Harris was an unmitigated blonde,
with red HAIR and blue ewes, exceedingly
appreciativo of pretty faces. Miss La Rose
was a handsome brunette, with beautiful
teeth and ewes TO make her smile entran-
cling; the shrugs of her plump shoulders
and coQuettish vivacity OF manner being
more eloquent than both languages her
tongue could speak. The young editor had
ewes and the dark curly tresses OF q
lovely girl at her sweetest of teens. The
poetic faculty in his humorous brain
awoke. He sought an acquaintance with
the lovely stranger-but many were the
letters, and sweet and tender the poems in
her praise from his brilliant pen before the
gentle heart was won. They were married
April Il, 1873. and lived in Savannah until
the summer of 1876. when an epidemic OF
yellow-fevcr drove them to Atlanta. Ga.
Mrs. Harris was born in 1854 near Albany,
n. Y. and is the ideal wife .of her distin-
guished husband. She makes scrap books
for HIM OF his best newspaper articles, the
reviews of his books, and sketches Of him.

HISTORY OF KISSING.
Earliest Mention of the Imported sa-
lutte " In English Legends.

Popular Science MOntniyJ
The mutual kiss of affection or passion
by the lips between persons OF opposite
sex is generally considered TO be lnstinc-
tive. Reichenbach sought to explain 1T on
the theory that the mouth was the focus
of the odic force" and that these Two
foci of opposite sexes possessed natural
attractions to each other.
The fact that the mutual kiss between
opposite sexes is not general among the
tribefs of men is abundanily shown by the
observation of travellers in the lands where
savagery and barbarism still exist. Where
il is now practiced il is not probably OF
great antiquity. In some languages. pota-
Div the Japanese, there is no word for kiss.
When, however, the kiss was introduced
TO include women. its vogue, like that of
other new inventions, was carried 10 ex-
cess. According to the chronicle of VIM
senius il was unknown i'll England until
the Princess Rowena, the daughter OF King
Hengist OF Frieslaud, instructed the IN
striar Vortgern in the imported salute.
Though the Saxon statistics are not pro-
badly exact, il is historical that IN Eng
land not many years ago II would nave
been the imperative, duty OF visitor 10
have kissed all the ladies of the household,
even without reviousacquaintance. Such
was the experience of MANY surprised lite
rary foreigners, notably Erasmus. =,
The contemporary drama shows the
usage TO have lasted into the Georgian era,
and it is TO be noticed that the perform
ance was generally called salute" some
times 1.-THE salute"

EUGeNlE'S NEW HOME.
The Ex-Empress to Reside Good Dea
in the south of France.

The Ex-Empress to Reside Good Deal
in the south OF France.
The Empress Eugene will in future live
a good deal IN the South of France. She
has lust bought for $1,000 five acres of
ground on the most beautiful spot on the
French part of the Riviera-namely, Cap
st. Martin, the tongue of land which juts
ont into the Mediterranean between
Monaco and Mentone. The price for the
situation is not high. The Empress in
tends to build villa on her ground. She
was stayIng in hotel at Cap st. Martin
when the census was being taken.
A form was served on her. She filled 1t
up in her own handwriting. which Is shaky
from rheumatism. The answers TO the DIFF,
ferent printed questions were thus hlled
In: "Comtesse de Pierrefond Marie Eu-
genie); aged sixty-four; born at Grenada.
Spain; naturalized French a widow had
one child-a son; lives on her income: of
no profession or business sojourner IN
France lives usually in England; Is travel
ling with two friends and four servants"
The dark sky of England disagrees with
the Empress. She was so glad OF the life
and brightness of the South when she went
there. 1t being her intention to adopt
Prince Napoleon's family, she. is glad not
to be far from Turin. Her relations with
the Duchesse de Mouchy. who often went
to her as person needing money, are not
what they used to be
The Empress is martyr to rheumatism,
and so helpless from it as almost to give
the impression that she suffers from a
paralytic tendency. She does not care to
stay in Paris. 1t has all grown strange and
bewildering 10 her, and there Is still
enough of what she recollects to arouse
narrowing memories.
