AN ARCHDUkE'S COLONY.
His Efforts to Lead the Gypsfes to the
Ways or Civilization.

His Efforts TO Lead the Gypstes to the
Ways OF Civilization.
Archduke Joseph of Austria is little
less eccentric in his tastes than the
Archdulze Johann, who married IL cho-
rus girl and became a sea captain, or
the Archduke Heinrich, who sacrificed
his royal honors to wed an opera singer,
The Archduke Joseph's inclination,
however, turns him to gypsies rather
than to actresses, and his writings on
gypsy traditions, gypsy music and
gypsy customs have secured for him
high place in the folklore literature OF
he checkered A7lstro- Hungarian en-
pire.
The archduke's latest manifestation
of his peculiar fondness for gypsies is
an attempt to domesticate them, says
the New York Sun. He got permission
from Emperor Franz Joseph to form
gypsy colonies, and to try to teach
them the arts of agriculture snd indus
try, and thez, built sixty little cottages
for as many families on his Alesuth es-
tate in Hungary. About two weeks ago
he corralled gypsy caravan and led it
to his uninhabite village. He chose a
strapping fellow of twenty FIVE for
chief, or mayor, and had married to him
bv the pastor of Alesuth the prettiest
girl in the caravan. The archduke
himself gave the girl away, and a
friend was the best man. In the subse"
ouent festivities the archduke appeared
in the full attire of a gypsy chieftain,
and, according to custom, as the man
who gave the bride away, led the we'd
ding procession with wreath of flow
ers on his head and bamboo stick
wrapped with gray cloth in Ills hand.
Each family in the new village has
cow and pony and quarter of an
acre of ground. The archduke is about
to erect a factory near the village, at
which all who are not thrifty enough to
support themselves without day labor
may find employment. Should the col
ony prove success other caravans are
to be captured by the archduke and To-
Gated in similar surroundings. His pur-
pose is to lead into ways of comfort and
civilization the great horde of wander
ing folk who pass all their time in mi
grating in picturesque caravans from
one end of the Austro-H Hungarian empire
to the other.

THE EMPEROR OF ETH.PolT.
An Enlightened Prince Who Can Work
and Who Prays Two Hours Daily.

An Enlightened Prince Who Can Work
and Who Prays Two Hours Daily.
Count Pietro Antonelli, member of
the Italian parliament, who has spent
several years in Ethiopia and has been
sent many times as Italian ambassador
to Emperor Menelik, has given an in
teresting account of that monarch in
recent issue of the Riforma Of Rome,
says the New York Tribune.
Menelik, says the count, who was
married to the Princess Taitu in 1888, is
now forty-eight years old. He is a man
Of medium height and powerful body,
with dark-brown skin and coarse al
though not irregular features. He is
not naturally cruel and the signing of
.death-warrants often makes him sor-
rowful and reflective. He understands
his people and is able to gain their love
and rule them wisely.
Although he now bears the title OF
emperor of Ethipoit, commands an
army of one hundred and thirty thou
sand men with sixty thousand guns and
displays at times oriental splendor, he
is not ashamed to subject himself to
physical labor. He saws wood. makes
house models and superintends the con-
struction of buildings. A short time
ago a. terrible disease carried away
many of the oxen, and Menelik and his
courtiers used rakes and spades in order
to prepare the fields for the reception
of the seed.
He worked also three months as a
stone-mason on church which he Or
dered built not long ago. He under
stands the main facts about railroads
and steamships and the principles OF
telegraphy. He would gladly acquaint
his people with the technical advances
in science and the arts, but his advisers
will not consent to it.
Since the early sos, adds the count,
Menelik has kept UP his connection
with Europe. In mercantile affairs he
is the equal of experienced tradesmen.
In diplomatic matters he well under
stands the art of prolonging the discus
sion until he has reached a decision.
One who has to carry ON business with
him nust be observant and attentive.
The emperor takes great interest in
European newspapers. He is fond Of
talking with Europeans, also, in order
to increase his knowledge of Europe.
He always receives Europeans in a
friendly and fattering manner.
AS rule the emperor breaks his
nights rest at three o'clock in the
morning. He prays then for two hours.
From five o'clock till seven he dictates
letters to his secretaries. Al seven
O'Clock he receives his ministers and
visitors of Importance and listens to
their reports of the state of the empire.
He gives his orders for the day after
the reports and makes his appoint"
ments. During the day he also finds
time to regulate watches, draw architi-
tectural plans, give medicine to the sick
and take care of his army.

A Persian Mode OF Punishme emf.

An extraordinary punishment is now
in vogue in Persia. 1t was introduced
by the present shah with a view to put.
ting a stop to the petty pilfering that
had had unbridled sway for hundreds OF
years. 1t consists in taking the culprit
through the following course OF
sprouts and is said to be very effectual.
especially when it has been applied to
n guilty of the third offense:
The first time a man is caught in the
act of stealing he is "bastinadoed" (beat.
en- on the soles of the feet with an iron
rod and made to sign a paper declaring
that that will be his last offense. If he
forgets this when the soles of his feet
quit burning and tries it again, the sec
ond offense calls for the amputation of
his right hand. If he is still obdurate,
and goes at it left handed, the third and
of curse last resort is decapitation.-

Many Languages in German CoIonie,

The Germans are trying to count the
languages that are spoken in their colo
NAL possessions. In east Africa they
have found fifty languages. in southwest
Africa, twelve; in Cameroons, twenty:
IN Toga, five OF six. The figures do
not include a large number of dialects
which are almost equivalent in some
cases to another language. The Ger
mans have no idea yet how many Ian
guages are spoken in their South sea
possessions. but they have thus far
counted fifty. Their missionaries and
agents are hard at work reducing the
languages which are most used to writ
ing and making dictionaries of them

WHEELING ON THE WALKS.
Col. Burlington states His Reasons

men Using the Bridges.

Coi' numn9tOn states His Reasons
Tor His Recent Order as to wheel
men Using the Bridges.
Col. A. R. Burlington has replied to
the petition of tri-city wheelmen relative
to his recent order prohibiting bicycle
riding on the sidewalks of the Rock ISL,
and bridges and island. In his letter
upon the subject Col. Burlington says:
There is no disposition to curtail any
privilege heretofore enjoyed, ON the con.
trary the inclination exists, where con,
sistent with other interests, to extend
them.
In the matter of bicycle riding, it is the
rule everywhere go far as my knowledge
extends. to confine it to streets and road
ways, for the obvious reason that the
safety of pedestrians demands it. The
rule therefore established here but con-
forms to the common judgment.
Are bicycle riders, of either sex per-
mitted to ride on the sidewalks of Rock
Island or Davenport? If not, why should
any one expect to do so on the island
bridges and sidewalks on which citizens
of both places, including women and
children, are privileged to, and do walk
constantly, as well as the residents of the
island.
The island roads and avenues, as well
as the sidewalks, are superior to those OF
the cities and country in the vicinity and,
therefore. much better adapted in both
good and bad weather for bicycle riding
This fact appears to be overlooked. ard
makes the rule excluding riders from
sidewalks seem hardship.
The bicycle is just as noiseless, its ap
proach either in front or rear of pedes-
TRANS equally unheralded as to time. here
as elsewhere. and its speed certainly i.
not lees; on the contrary the privilege o.
riding on the island has been abused BY
racing, but this has not been the cause O.
the order, which as above indicated, il
based on the common practice and judg
ment
