Ages When ROYALTY Married.

A glance at the pages of history reveals
the fact that early marriages have long
been the fashion among royal personages.
Here are few instances: Queen Victoria
was married when she was scarcely twenty
one, and the Prince of Wales espous ad
Princess Alexandra before he was twenty
two.
The emperor of Austria took to wife the
radiant Elizabeth of Bavaria when he was
not yet twenty-four years old. The pres.
ent czar of Russia was twenty-one when
he gave his hand to Princess Dagmar, OF
Denmark, who was two years his Junior
King Humbert of Italy was twenty-four
at the time of his marriage to the fair
Marguerite of Savoy, then a girl of only
seventeen.
The present king and queen of the Bel.
gians were aged eighteen and seventeen at
the time of their wedding. The late king
of Spain, Alphonso MI, was very little
older when he formed his brief, bright
union with his charming cousin. Mercedes
He was only twenty-five when he married
his second wife, the present queen regent
And it was at the same age that the pres.
ent emperor of Germany was united tC
Augusta Victoria of Schleswig- H olstein.

Rudolph of Austria was twenty-five at the
date of his union to Princess Stephanie Of

IT will be of interest to the many Rock
Island Methodists to know that Bishop
Hurst, formerly of Des Moines, is to be
again married. The exact date is not
fixed, but the happy event will take place
during the coming autumn. The pros
pective bride rs Miss Ella Agnes Root, of
Buffalo. y. Y. Miss Root is the daugh.
ter OF Francis 81. Root, one of the lead
ing capitalists of Buffalo, and the bene-
factor OF the Syracuse University, CT
whose board of trustees he is the presi-
dent. Mr.. Root is 8 member OF the
Methodist Episcopal church. and the in
timacy between his family and that Ct
Bishop Hurst has been of long standing.
Miss Root is an accomplished musician,
both vocal and instrumental, and has
Travelled extensively to Europe, where
she acquired 8 thorough education in
French and German.

Having run with a companion.

Four we'll dressed young men who had
evidently been looking around town board
ed a Sixth avenue train just before dawn
few days ago. Three of them were wide
awake and bubbling over. The other fell
low was exceedingly gloomy and possessed
of wild desire for sleep. He twisted him
self up in a corner and in two seconds was
snoring musically away with his mouth
wide open.
His wide awake companions seemed to
think that his appearance was not so funny
as it might be and they proceeded with a
will to remedy this defect. First they
filled his hat ribbon with old envelopes and
advertising cards and then made bouquet
Of a newspaper which they stuck in his
coat lapel.
The other passengers became interested
in the case by this time and they set out to
aid the good work. One man found piece
of string with which the sleeper's mus
tache was tied to his umbrella, and an
other man contributed rubber band,
whichwas slipped over the snorer's wrists.
The brakeman entered into the spirit of
the occasion also and showed one of the
roysterers how to collect some SCOT from
the lamp shades. This SCOT was rubbed
over the young mans nose and ears with
pleasing effect.
The quartet was due to get off at the
One Hundred and Sixteenth street station,
and the three wide awakes rushed out as
soon as it was reached. They only aroused
their sleepy friend as the train started off
again, when they hammered on the win
dow next his head and danced like luna
tics on the platform.
The expression of added gloom that set
tied on the victims face as slowly and
painfully he unstrapped his hands, united
his mustache and threw away his decora-
tions made the spectators shrek with glee

The Future of the Blue Grass Region

The Future of the Blue Grass Region
What is to be the future of the Blue
Grass region? When population in the
United States becomes much denser, and
the pressure is felt in every neighborhood
who will possess it, One seems to see in
certain tendencies of American life the
probable answer to this question. The
small farmer will be bought out and will
disappear. Estates will grow fewer and
larger. The whole land will pass into the
hands of the rich, being too precious for
the poor to own. Already here and there
one notes the disposition to create vast do.
mains by the slow swallowing up of con-
hguous small ones. Consider, then, in
this connection the taste already shown by
the rich American in certain parts of the
United States to found a country place in
the style of an English lord. Consider,
too, that the landscape is much like the
loveliest of rural England; that the trees,
the grass, the sculpture of the scenery are
such as make the perfect beauty of park;
that the fox, the bobwhite, the thorough
bred and the deer are indigenous.
Apparently, therefore, one can foresee
the yet distant time when this will become
the region of splendid homes and estates
that will nourish taste for outdoor sports
and offer an escape from the too wearying
cities On the other hand, powerful and
ever growing interest is that of the horse
racer or trotter. He brings into the state
his increasing capital. his types of mon.
Year after year he buys farms and lays
out tracks and builds stables and edits
journals, and turns agriculture into graz

A Bachelor Who Enjoys Moving.

The whims of "old maids" are proven
bal; as a rule, however, they are rational,
erring on the side of primness 1t takes
an 'old bachelor" to release himself from
all conventional notions and achieve eccen-
tricity. Such a one is an old New Yorker
who has passed his life in fashionable
boarding houses. He is restless, and tires
of one after certain time, in a couple of
years perhaps if it is an especially good
one, in a week if there is nobody around
the board who interests or amuses him,
and he moves at short notice.
His manner of moving is unique and
original. Trunks bother him to pack and
lumber his room SO he has had for years
two sacks made of sail duck with slip
string of rope Irvine at the opening. Into
these he lays his belongings-boots, shirts,
pipes, books, with his dress suit on top
ties up the mouths and sends an express
man for his luggage" Simple as can
be-" he says. Never lost thing nor
spoiled anything; send the dress suit to
the tailor's to be pressed, and there l am;
easy, cheap and convenient. All nonsense,
time and money wasted in packing boxes ~
