cues His Cat.

LoSnoS, July l6.--The Gar will leave
Copenhagen in about ten days it 10
said TO visit the Grand Duke George IN
the Caucasus. The grand duke is un-
dergoing . remarkable course of treat
ment for = pulmonary disease which
threatens 10 prove fatal. He sleeps,
eats and reAds in rooms with ali doors
and windows open 90 that even on the
coldest days he - constantly IN strong
draught. The unique theory OF his
physicians is that by this course Of
treatment the germs Of hrs disease are
killed by exposure, or carried away.
The grand duke, however. has as yet
failed to improve sufficiently TO lend
much credit TO the new mode OF treat
ment. Upon the Cars return TO CO.
penhagen from the Caucasus it Is said
he will begin arranging for the Berlin
visit for which Emperor William stipu-
lated when he consented to meet the
Car in Kiel.
Early in the morning. few days ago
the guards in the park OF Castle Fred
ensburg saw a door leading 10 the gar
den burst open and the Gar shouting
and gesticulahng ran out in slippers
and shirt sleeves. An attempt at 40.
sassinatlon was the immediate conclu-
sion and the guards ran to rescue, half
Of them Fastening to the Cars apart
ment. The Car explained to the as
tonished guards that as he sat at his
window he saw the dogs chase the cat,
the favoritc pet OF King Christian, into
q corner, and fearing delay would be
fatal, ran TO the rescue.

MINIATURES, July 16.-The E. p.
Allis company of this city is now CON-
plotting plans for monster engine to
be used at the worlds fair. The ma
chine will be one Of the largest ever

feet in diameter and III feet inches in
breadth. The engine will be Of nearly
5000 horse power, though its full force
will not be exerted, as it is only ex-
pected to run two Westinghouse elec-
trical generators of l,000-horse power
each. 1t is expected that the plans will
he finished in few weeks AMI that by
fall the work on the engine will be
nearly finished. The engine will be
one of the largest ever made, far cclip-
sing the bag CorlIss engine which at
