How the Prince DIED

have recently had very interest
ing interview with an English gentle
man who was present in Zululand mt
the time of the death VI the prince inn
perial. and who knew the young gen
tleman well. besides being personally
acquainted with all the details of the
catastrophe. says writer in the Phila-
delphia Telegram. He was not much
impressed by the character and msn-
ners of the Inflated asrince himself.
describing him to me IS Il very full
f'edgcd specimen Of the most Obnox-
ions type of a fast young Partisan So
cietv man. Besides which. he was i'm
pressed with an overwhelming idea Of
his own Importance, and insisted
always on taking the command Of
every expedition in which he was in
cluded.
The fatal fray in which the unfortun-
ate youth lost his life owed its whole
success for The Zulus to the fact of the
princes party being taken by surprise.
Everybody ran away on tse Sudden
attack of the savages. and It was ewing
to a broken girth that the prince failed
to make his escape with the Others.

in the attack. and they all belonged to
one family--a father. his three sons
and son-in-law. They stripped the
body of their victim. leaving nothing
behind but gold iocket suspended
around his neck. and which the -ulus
thought contained charm.
Nv informant told me that. for him.
the most trying part OF the whole BUSH
ness was the interview which the
Empress Eugene insisted upon having
with him after he returned 10 England.
She asked the most minute questions
about the princes death. being espc-
eially anxious TO know if the fatal
wounds were not dealt him in front.
But. unfortunately they were all in
his back. Then she wanted to be told
that he had died fighting for England
and the Englshman was compelled TO
assure her that such was not the case.
But at least, Mr. ", YOU can say it

SCIENCE FOR DISEASE.
sssnding on the Border Land Of Medical
Discovery.

We are standing to-day on the bor-
der-land of vast unexplored region
in the domain of life. Ii seems To DO
a region rich in the promises of benefit
to man, when after patient toll we
shall have learned more OF the re-
lationships of these tiny organisms to
one another and to higher forms. The
richest harvest garnered hitherto in
this domain has been the power to
understand the cause of certain dread
human scourges and thus 10 stay their
progress.
In the face OF threatened epidcmics
of Asiatic cholera, we stand to-day
fully equipped with IL knowledge of its
nature, which surely enables us TO
hold it successfully in check. The
surgeon can to-day undertake with
just confidence of success such opera
tions for the relief of suffering hui
mainly as would have made the hearts
of his elder contreres stand fairly still.
Many of the so-called accidents OF
maternity have largely lost their
vagueness, and with this their power
to harm. The great cloud which for
SO many years has hung low over the
heads OF the children of tubercular
parents has at length begun to roll
away. The terrible epidemic scourges
of former times no longer haunt the
Imagination. Man is not in these days
a serious seeker for the fountains of
perpetual youth, nor may we justly
long for earthly Immortality. But we
now sce-dimly, but at last-that We
may lay larger CLAIM at least TO our
allotted threescore years and ten if we
can but learn TO cope with or to hold
at bay those unseen enemies which
have robbed Us already of far too many
lives.
Little by little we are learning that
| prevention is better than cure, and that
prevention is possible in large num-
Der OF those diseases which have
claimed their victims hitherto unchal-
lenged People have always taken it
as "A matter Of course that certain
number OF persons must sicken and die
of such diseases as typhoid fever and
| diphtheria; but we know to-day that
these diseases can b. largely limited il
only proper care be taken in destroy
ing the waste material from the sick.
We know now to just what we must at
tribute the widespread requirement OF
tuberculosis, and that proper cleanlj-
ness in streets and houses and all as
sembling places. would greatly curtail
the number of its victims.
Still, again. these delvings in the
unseen world have brought up at least
one shining moral nugget, which, when
beaten into words, means something

ADJUSTMENTS IN BAVARIA.
Quaint Ways in Which the People OF That
Country Enjoy Themselves.

As TO amusement you may trust
Eavarian not to be behind in that, says
the National Review. The men meet
almost nightly in the different inns and
beerhouses, according TO their status
in the local societies, whore they have
talk, singing, music, etc, the large
glass mugs of beer at their side bong
constantly replenished. The beer is
fortunately light, but the amount drunk
Is serious expense, and much more
than the men usually can properly a.
ford. Besides these nightly gatherings
there are different clubs or societies
that meet at certain times at one or
other OF the inns for an evenings
amusement, some OF them under the
patronage of the priest. In many of
them the women join, but the women's
chief entertainments are kunkl, or
spinning parties, at home, and very
coy and picturesque these spinning
parties are.
The great feature in a Bavarian sit
ting-room is the large porcelain stove
that stands out into the room, and that
is usually lit from the passage outside.
Round this stove bench runs, making
a delightfully."- warm seat the back be-
iny The porcelain stove. But besides
this stove, in the older houses, there is
in the wall hole with chimney,
where a peculiar sort OF pine that
burns brightly without sending out
sparks, Is burned at night for the pur-
pose of light only.
In olden times, when such Injuries
as lamps were unthought of, it was
often the only means OF illumination.
Some still use them constantly; others
keep them only for festive occasions.
a man generally the wag or story
teller OF the parity sits beside it to
keep it replenished. The women have
their spinning or knitting, and
the men sit in tho darker corners;
and there are always some TO sing songs
or tell stories or keep the fun going
in some way. One such scene espec-
tally occurs tc me.
Imagine an old. dark paneled room.
In her armchair close TO the stove, in
the full light of the blazing pine wood,
sits the handsome old hostess, in her
picturesque costume, busy with her
spinning-wheel. A young woman with
wheel is in an opposite corner.
Three daughters knitting and guests
sit in a circle, more or less, the light
| playing on she varied faces and time
worn furniture as bright freight alone
can. One man has guitar and two
girls sing Tyrolese songs. At last
schnapps of different kinds (sort OF
cheap liqueurs) and delicious coffee,
with homemade cake. are handed
round, and the evening ends with
hearty farewell greeting.

GREAT GUN s.
How They Are Made and What They Cost.

The forging of the immense gurs is
Il most interesting process. The rifed
guns of the present are made by re-
enforcing the tube with rings and re-
peated layers of steel called jack
which are fitted one over the other
over the original tube or barrel 81 the
gun. The jackets or hoops must fit as
closely to the guns as if forming an in
tegral part of its composition. The
only way To get them on is, of course,
by heating, and thus enlarging them.
When they cool, they fit snugly. 1t is
evident that the exact size of the jscket
and ring when heated SO that it can be
put in its place must be n matter Of the
incest mathematical calculgA;n. The
coarse powder now used .Vlkes such
havoc with the rihing of the largest
guns that one hundred charges are
about all that can be expected from
them. The jackets and rings can then
he removed, and fitted To another tube.
The various parts OF gun are not
put together at Bethlehem. but are
sent to Washington, to department
OF the Arsenal called the assembling
room, where the tube is rified. and the
gun is finally completed. A steel gun
of the largest calibre costs about 500,
600. The ordnance of our modern
navy is therefore one Of the most costly
items for which Congress is expected
10 display patriotic generosity.

CATHEDRAL ARCHITECTUR
How, the Great Church OF Rome Was
Built Of Butter.

Built OF Butter.
The cathedral is first found to per-
lection in the thirteenth century. but
it is more elaborate in the fourteenth,
says the Philadelphia Ledger The
tenth century was an important epoch
in the history of cathedrals. 1t was
the general belief at that time that the
end Of the world was approaching and
a falling off in building activity is no.
ticed in consequence. After the be-
ginning of the year 1000 A. ID. a gen.
eral sense Of relief is shown in the
building of new churches. The erec-
ton of church was convenient
means for the expression OF thankful
ness. The founding OF monasteries,
especially of tho Cistercian order, led
also TO this phenomenal activity. An
illustration Of this progressive spirit is
seen in the tower OF the Rouen cathe-
dral, which was built of butter.
mean by that that the people of Rouen,
by giving up butter in Lent, paid for
ii from their savings.
The sculpt re OF cathedrals, which
was SO eXquisitely carried out in the
middle ages, contained means for
teaching the bible in days when books
were almost unknown. This is well
shown in the statues OF Christ. At
that time it was more than u symbol;
it was sign of the living spirit.
Then, too, the cathedral was more
than q church and was not merely u
religious place. 1t was the one super
lative place in the city-the center Of
learning and of the community. Our
modern churches have deteriorated, az

DELIGHTFULLY."- SURPRISED.
The Home Of Daniel Jolly the Scene o
Gaiety.

The Home of Daniel Jolly the Scene Of
Gaiety.
The home of Daniel Jolly, the popular
milk dealer who resides at Buck Hill, was
the scene Of a happy gathering Sunday.
About this time last year Mrs. jolly con-
ceived and executed the idea of giving
her husband a surprise party, so Mr.. jolly
concluded to retaliate this season, and he
accordingly sent out invitations to all his
friends. The response was hearty, and
Sunday witnessed a iovial assembly of
one hundred. A delegation was present
from Cleveland. North Industry was rep
resented by a dozen or more, and about
twenty-five Cantonians enjoyed the occa-
sion by their presence. Mrs. Jolly was
surprised completely. The guests all en-
tered heartily into the spirit Of the occa-
sion, and the generous hospitality extend
ed them made the event one not soon to
be forgotten. As the dinner hour ap
preached tables were spread upon the
shaded lawn, and feast set out that was
a triumph in the culinary art. Especially
in this line was the hospitality OF Mr.. jolly
and his family made manifest, and the
manner In which those present partook OF
the esculent repast was a sure token OF
thorough appreciation. General sociabil.
ity prevailed all afternoon, and music ad.
ded additional charms in the way of en-,
tertainment. The event was in honor OF
the thirty-eighth anniversary of the birth
of Mrs. Jolly, who was the recipient oi
many beautiful presents, among them an
elegant rocker and set of spoons.

Koch served papers on him in a
suit for divorce brought by his wife, Mary
