WHY KING LEOPOLD CAME TO LONDON.
The King Of the Belgians got through an enormous
amount Of hard work during the week he spent in
London. The object Of %Leopold's stay among us was
neither to arrange a marriage between his daughter
and the Duke of Clarence, nor TO make a'tour Of the
northern ports in Sir william Msckinnon's yacht,
but was simply to consult Lord salisbury and Others
about the latest phases Of the Congo enterprise, In.
Guiding the attitude Of America in regard 10 the pro-
ceedings OF the Brussels Conference. Besides dining
twice with the Prince of Wales. once as host and once
as guest, he received a large number Of visitors.
PRINCE N%APOLEoN'S E
The funeral OF Prince Napoleon was hurried through
with almost indecent haste, in order that 10 attempt
might be made to carry out his testamentary In
functions about civil burial. SO great was the eXpedi-
ton displayed that it was rot TIL the cumbrous collin
reached the inner vault at Superga that anybody
recoIlected the necessity Of opening it for the identi.
fcation of the body by the authorities. The scene was
a gPucsome one, and. as decomposition had already
set in, the niche in which the body was placed was
Immediately closed.
PRINCESS MARIANNE BONAPAirES CAREER
SO much excitement had been occasioned by tho
death of Prince Napoleon. that the demise OF Princess
Marianne BOnaparte on the same day. almost at the
same hour, received comparatively little notice, al
though her husband, Prince Lucian. the savant. still
lives among pathological trcatiscs, Canine monuments
and Napoleonic relics, in Norfolk Terrace, Bayswater.
Tho late Princess was a woman endowed with con-
siderable strength Of character. Sixty years ago, as
the beautiful daughter Of the sculptor Concileti,
she was wooed and won By the second son Of the
Prince dc Canine. who took her 20 live in the paternal
house Of the Bonapartes at Ajaccio. The marriage
proved unhappy, and forty years ago the illassOrted
couple separated. the Princess Marianne meeting the
most tempting offers 10 consent to a divorce with tho
words. The name Of B0naparte is worth more than
the largest fortune She never saw her husband
again, but continued TO inhajit the second story over
the show rooms Of the Maison Napoleon, where She
died at the very moment that priests and politicians
were s%quabbling about the dying heir to TIE Napoleonic
tradition at Rome.
Marianne 800 francs a month. ard visitors at tho
Mai,on Napoleon were ACCUSTOMED to speculate con-
ccrGing the identity OF the comely old lady whom
they occa, ionally saw in the garden.
LORD R~OSECEEY'S RETURN TO PUBLIC LIFE.
The return Of Lord Rosebegy to public life may Is
expected after Easter. lie has been told by his
colleagues that his presence in the House OF Lords is
very desirable. Lord Granville is out OF health: Lord
Kimberley has no weight or authority: and the result
i, that Lord salisbury never meets with even a whisper
Of criticism in rho Upper House. The opposition know
that The supremacy If the Prime Minister in the Upper
House IS unas,ailable but they desire at least to
have there a clever, effective critic.
= MARROW ESCAPE FOR MIR GLADSTONE.
Mr.. Gladstone's trumphal visit to Hastings Lad
nearly a very dramatic termination or his return to
the station, for the p0Stilllon who was conducting his
carriage. whether overcome by his emotions al tho
events Of The day or by more potent cause>-presumably
the latter. a, he was subsequently fined for drunken.
ncs>-mistook the distance in driving through one II
the triumphal arches, and nearly upset the carriage.
Mr.. Gladstone. who was accompanied By Mrs. Glad
stone and by Lady Winifred Gardner, the new Eceria
Of the Glad,tOnian party. was tossed into the laps Vi
two ladies and somewhat shaken and surprised. lie.
however. quickly recovered himself, and, the carriage
being eNtricated from its somewhat pcg1lous position.
the procession reformed and proceeded safely to the
station but onlookcrs said that it was near being a
bad accident to mar the harmony OF the day. No
mention was made of 1t IN the papers.
THE LABOR COMMISSION.
II is daily becoming more and more evident that tn.
Labor Commission was appointed none too soon. TITO
progress OF various labor bill, in Parliament has made
IL clear that intimate, authoritative knowledge Of ths
details Of the branches OF Industry to be dealt with by
the Legislature Is absolutely necessary. There IS no
doubt, for instance, that fuller knowledge OF local
sentiments would have considerably aided Mr.. Matthews
and sir Henry James in their Factory bills. Lord
Dunrayen's WORKSHOP bin also evoked some o~utspoken
criticism from the nailmareTS OF Birmingham and the
Black Country. The best intentions on the part Of the
mover sink into noncntity in the eyes OF a master OF
trade mysteries, who is offended by transgressions only
TO be avoided by an expert in the minutlac OF the craft.

the chief indignitics 10 the Bishop were offered.

from the operation lie underwent a week ago, WHICH,

To be about and 10 get away TO the south OF EhsIl1~
for a change.
