FAMOUS DIR. EVANS.
The Paris Dentist who stood a Crown
Prince en- His Head.

n. c. Crawford in New York Tribune.
DIR. Evans is noted for his direct and
practical methods. He has no interest TO
serve at any of these courts, and therefore
he is trusted as few men have been trusted
in the world of diplomacy. His career is
one long story on personal services to
prominent royal personages. One of the
most notable services was rendered to the
crown prince OF Sweden while DR.. Evans
was on a visit at the wedding of the sister
of the crown prince. The doctor was asked
by an aunt of the prince if he had noticed
anything peculiar about her nephew. The
doctor answered that he had. The prince
was eccentric, and on the verge of mad
ness from pain and suffering. The doctor
saw him after the the wedding, at the aunt's
request, in the princes room. The doctor
asked him why he was SO unhappy. The
prince said: 81 am desperate and despair
ing. l have several times lately made up
my mind to blow out my brains, to put an
end to my misery. l am suffering from
the most hideous of headaches constantly,
and my breath is so foul that cannot en-
ter room without becoming an object of
loathing." The doctor glanced at him and
then said: ''Win You oblige me by stand
ing on your mead.
An aide-de-camp, who was present, pro-
tested at this disrespecffui request. The
doctor ignored him, and said TO the prince:
"Do you want to be cured!'
"God knows do" answered the prince,
but there is no doctor that can do any
thing for me. l have tried them all.
''You will oblige me- said DIR. Evans,
i'by standing on your head"
The persistant demand gave the prince a
ray of hope. He complied, and the instant
that he placed himself in this positien a
horrible discharge gushed from his mouth
and nose. The doctor said: 81 thought
so. 1 will have you cured of this inside of
a week" The trouble was an liberated
tooth, the ulceration having eaten it's way
back to the nose and created a pus cavity
of enormous size. The doctor bored a hole
through the roof of his patients mouth,
inserted tube, and so succeeded in clear
ing out and absolutely curing the diseased
place. The result was that inside of a
month the prince was restored absolutely
to health. This cure led to his speedy mar
riage. He is to-day more than devoted
| friend to the doctor.

THE NEY MYTH.
Romantic Story of the Great Soldiers
Career I'm America.

Career In America.
From the Atlanta Constitutional
The Ney myth comes to the front once
more, and this time it is elaborately set
forth in book written by Rev. James A.
Weston, of Hickory, n. C. Mr.. Weston
is an Episcopal clergyman, scholarly
gentleman, and he is firmly convinced
that the Peter Stuart Ney, who taught
school and died in Rowan county, n. c.,
in 1916, was the veritable Michael Ney,
the marshal of France, who was called by
Napoleon the bravest of the brave.
In this strangely interesting book we
are told the names and given the testimo-
ny of many prominent citizens of the Car
olinas who knew Peter Stuart Ney, and
who were satisfied that he was the great
French soldier. From all accounts the
man vas the very image Of the marshal.
He was very reticent, but occasionally
took too much wine, and then made sd-
missions tending to show that he was Mi
chael Ney. He tried to commit suicide
when he heard of Napoleon's death. He
told Colonel Houston, of Ireden county,
n. c., that when he marched to the place
of execution he found that the soldiers de-
tailed to do the work belonged to his old
command He whispered to them to aim
high. They obeyed him, and when the
volley was fired he fell, was pronounced
dead and his body was turned over to his
friends. He went secretly to Bordeaux,
where he took vessel for Charleston,
landing there in January, 1916
Now what are the facts on the other
side, The North Carolina Ney was a
school-teacher. The real Ney was q man
| of hardly any education. The North Car
olina Ney sometimes got drunk. The real
Ney was noted for his abstemious habits.
Why should any secrecy have been ne
cessarya If Ney had escaped he would
have been free and perfectly safe on those
shores. He was not obliged to remain in
exile. Amnesty was granted by Louis
| XVIII. Charles Y. and Louis Philippe,
and if Ney had been living he would have
! returned to France under the reigns OF
either of these sovereigns.
But this is not all. The story viii not

The plan suggested by the minister of
the interior of the Austro- Hungarian en-
pire of having an electric railroad run be-
tween Vienna and Buda-Pesth, with cars
leaving the two terminal stations through
out the day at intervals of ten minutes,
shows the Possibilities which this new sys-
tenn of transportation offers in the opin-
ion of those who have made something of
a study of it. The distance between the
two capitals of the dual empire is more
than $50 miles, but under what is known as
the '(zone" method, the price of passenger
transportation in Hungary has been re-
duced for long distances to a very low
point, with, it is understood, highly salts
factory financial results. 1t is thought
that an extensive system of intertravel can
be established if this method of frequent
car running is resortsd to.
When fame comes it changes things 1t
is related that q few months ago the Rev.
Howard MacQueary tried in vain to at
tract attention as writer. Everything
he sent to the magazines was either thrown
into the waste basket or returned. But
since his book began to attract attention
he has been besieged night and day by
lecture bureaus. magazine publishers and
special correspondents. Unfortunately, he
cannot lecture, on account of throat trou-
BILE, but he is o clear and vigorous writer,
and his pen will undoubtedly be kept busy
for the next few months. Before he began
to be talked about he sent to a Boston
magazine an article on ''Shelley." 1t was
promptly returned as unavailable" But
as soon as his book attracted attention, the
editor of the magazine began frantically
telegraphing to him for an article on any
subject he chose. Impossible" replied
Mr.. MacQueary, 'too busy" "oh, send
anything" responded the editor. And
when the clergyman replied that he had
nothing but the article on Shelley
which the editor had declined, the answer
was: "Send it at once and name your
price"

1t Is Used for the Purpose, 1t Is Said, Of
Depressing the Stock Markets.
NEW YORK, May 15-In regard to the
exports of gold the Post, in its financial ar
ticle, says: ''There is still an apparent de-
sire in some quarters to create a mystery
about the gold exports. The news bulletins
in the street this morning report 'one ex-
change house as saying it is an
open secret that the gold is needed by large
interests on the other side, who are convert
ing securities and property into cash as rap
idly as the markets of the world will per-
nit. Another foreign exchange house is
reported as saying: THE outward move
ment of gold would be checked if the
money rate here advanced, but this rate is
kept down by people interested
in getting the gold. When the
demands for gold are met, there is likely to
be sharp advance in the money here, and
finally this ambiguousness was condensed
in another bulletin which said: Foreign
houses and people having foreign connec-
tions were quite pronounced bears, declar-
ing the situation abroad to be worse, and
limiting at unfavorable news of Importance
liable to transpire.'
"All of this limiting and ambiguity
always have such decided depressing ef-
feet on prices of stock that it looks as
though this ambiguous news might have
been invented for that purpose"

Some months ago Mrs. Williams son
Charles stole from his sister Josephine and
attempted snicide while in cell in police
headquarters. She did not prosecute him.
The boarder French is man of fastidious
habits. He put clean handkerchief in his
closet on Wednesday night, and afterward
saw it in Charles possession. There was a
quarrel and Josephine took the part of her
brother, notwithstanding that the boarder
was her suitor. In the struggle French was
stabbed in the back and caused the arrest
of Charles. The latter was arraigned at
the Tombs Police Court yesterday, where
Josephine appeared as witness in her
brothers behalf
''It was 1 who stabbed him." she ex-
planned. ''He won't make no complaint
against me. John loves me-" She was cor
rect in her judgment. He had no desire to
prosecute, Charles was discharged.

BOSTON, May 15.-Fort Warren, on Gal
lup'S Island, eight miles down the harbor, is
being improved. On the northeast corner a
bed for heavy gun is being laid. The 15-
inch guns formerly commanding the differ
ent channels and entrance to the harbor are
being dismounted and a breastwork of 60
feet in thickness is being built. The 10-inch
guns will be supplanted with breeeh- load
ers. An immense reservoir has been built
in the center of the parade ground, from
which pipes will be laid to supply the squad
rooms. -
Work on the torpedo station is being
rapidly pushed forward The laborers have
nearly reached the outer wall bordering on
the sea, from which the tunnel for the tor
pedo wires will extend 80 feet out to sea. A
large number of shells have been collected
from the ramparts and torpedoes have been
taken from the old magazine and more safely
housed. A large force of men is at work
and it is evident that every effort is being
made to get things into shape. The officials
will give no information.
