WITHOUT A COUNTRY

a Monarch Who Has Abandoned All Esis
 Possessions.
 Milan. the former king or oervla, oc- cupies at the present moment tho most extraordinary position which lt IS possible to conceive, saya the New I Ork Recorder. He has abandoned not only all his rights as member of the reign ing house of Servia, as well as his prop erty, honors, and dignities in the king dom, but he has even renOunced his citizenship and undertaken never again to set his foot in the country. There IS some talk of his becoming naturalized as Russian, but he has not done So yet, and accordingly he is just now without any nationality or civil status of any kind. He is without what the French describe as an etat civil, and is, to all intents and purposes, an outlaw, since he possesses no legal rights of any kind whatsoever. He is the most home less and abandoned of creatures, and his position is so abnormal that the emperor of Austria has deemed it necessary to deprive him of the honorary colonelship of the Austrian regiment of infantry which he has hitherto held and to remove his name from the Austrian army list. It is the first time that a king has ever placed himself in such predicament as that of the ex-mOnarch of Servia, and it is to be hoped that it will not constitute precedent.

A HOUSE OF GLASS.
The Queer Idea of an Eccentric French
 man.

At the city of Dinard in the depart ment of Ille-et-Vilainc, France, there lives man distinguished both for his originality of ideas and for the fullness of his money bags, says the Chicago Herald. He has been speaking and teaching for long time upon the ne- cessity of men beginning to lead lives of greater purity, so that they need not be afraid of having all their deeds un- der the incessant supervision of socie- ty. He is himself willing to submit to the trial and wants to find others to do the same He has determined to have three-story house built all of glass. A dwelling of such transpar- ency would not only allow its inhabit- ants at all times a splendid prospect in every direction upon the beautiful country surrounding the place but also expose the minutest details of the daily life of the people in the house to the inspection of the entire city. The originator of the idea has found an architect willing to build the house on condition Of payment in advance. But there is no renting agent that will take the agency for it. If it is to be lodg- ing-hOuse for bachelors, they say, they may be able to do something with it, but they cannot find a female, they think, that would consent to live in a glass house. Nevertheless, the old gentleman is determined to realize his i1oa

She Had Two Thousand Descendants and
 Saw Her Sixth Generation.
 Mrs. Annie Roush has died at Letart, a few miles from ParlIersburg, W. Va, aged nearly 106 years. It is thought, says the Washington Star, that she was the head of the largest family in the world and the only woman in this country who lived to sec her sixth gen. eration. Mrs. Roush was born at Mor- gantown, Pa., June 4, 17S4, when Washington, Hamilton and Jefferson were planning the constitution. Her father was David Sayre. In 1891 Mr. Sayre started west and settled above Pomeroy, on the Virginia side. Here he resided several years, finally moving up the river and crossing to where Lc- tart now stands. In 1902 Annie married Henry Roush and was the mother of thirteen children. The first child, Sarah, married Thomas Coleman and be- came the mother of twelve children. The next, Elizabeth, married Henry Wolf and had sixteen children. The third, Lydia, married a MT. McClain, and after his death married John Wag- OlIC1' Au ID t4ha CttS II 1lCI CIl1AClICu Iiltib Mrs. ROush could trace her descent to the sixth generation The fourth child, Annie, had an ...u dozen = children.

AimoE i-Eyed California Merchants Doing
 Without E3igi;-Priecd VVl,ito Labor.
 Tie Chinese have discovered another way of competing with white men. For years tha merchants in Chinatown, par ticalarly those manufacturing cigars a1i clothing, have employed white men at largo salaries t0 drum up interior trade. The merchant, realizing the strong feeling against his countrymen, knew that it would be hard for him to do business personally with white ner- chants. Many of the interior mer- chants, while they were ready to pat ronizc the Chinese firms, did not like the fact known, and when Chinaman dressed in his national costume called upon him he was inclined to avoid be- ing seen with him. With the white drummer, however, the San Francisco Call says, it was different. The latter could register at any of the hotels, and, after selling a man bill of goods, could invite the customer to drink or take dinner with him, an invitation none would accept from a Chinaman.
 4 few months ago, however, the Chl- nese merchants began to dlSchargc their high-salaried white drummers and travel on the road themselves, or filled the vacancies with their own country men. Little Pete, of jury bribery fame, who is heavy producer in Chinatown, was one of the first to inaugurate the new custom. He fitted Chinese em- ploye out in American clothes, fur nishcd him with well fitted wig and sent him out on the road. The venture was a success, and Little Pete soon found his business progressing as we'll as when he employed the white drum mer
 In his American dress the general ap" pearance of the Chinaman, which is so objectionable to the whites, was almost hidden. In this attire, and with no queue visible, the interior hotel keeper made no objection to him, and he was therefore allowed to extend the same business courtesies to the white custom CTS as the white drummers.
 Other Chinese firms soon adopted the new custom and now there are nearly fifty disguised Chinamen, travelling up and down this state as drummers. The presence of numerous Chinamen wear ing wigs and American clothes has been noticed lately in this city, but few could explain a reason for it.

FRENCH CONVERSATION.
Interchange of Ideas Is Prevalent in the
 Household.

Interchange of Ideas Is Prevalent in the
 Household.
 Children being nearly always at table in France, and conversation often being animated among their elders, they hear q great deal that was never intended for them, and they get a sort of -educa- tion in effectiveness by mere example, says Gilbert IIamerton, in Forum. They make little use of this in the presence of strangers during boyhood or girIhOod, but it bursts out afterward when they get to a talking age. It is recognized by custom that when a family is in pri- vate every one has Q right to talk or not as he pleases, and silence being permit ted, the taciturn will take advanfaoe of it; still nothing is more national in French life than talkativeness at meal times, even when the family alono is present. This docs at least keep rp 4l,a national power of talking though the mill wheels Of conversation have ire quently very little grain to grind. Talk of this kind has some use as a s{imulat- ing exercise Of the lighter faculties. which in other countries are often left unexercised. The merits of it are its facility of expression and it's ample choice of language; the defects of it. in France, may be included under the enc head of insufficient or inaccurate infer nation.

FOREIGN PAPER MONEY.
0ank Note Currency of Various CountriC
 in the Old and New Worlds

OaHk Note Currency of Various Countries
 in the Old and New Worlds.
 The bank of England note is five inches by eight in dimensions, and is printed in black ink on Irish linen Eater-lined paper, plain white with ragged edges. The notes of the banque de France are made of white, water lined paper, printed in blue and black, with numerous nythological and ale gorical pictures, and running in denom- ination from the twenty-five franc note to the one thousand franc. South Amer icGn currency, in most countries, is about the size and general appearance of American bills, except that clnna- mon brown and slate blue are the pre- vailing colors, and that Spanish and Portuguese arc the prevailing lan- guage engraved on the face. The Ger man currency is rather artistic, accord ing to Golden Days. The bills are printed in green and black. They run in denominations of from five to one thousand marks. Their later bills are printed on silk fiber paper.
 The Chinese paper currency is in red, white and yellow, with gilt lettering and gorgeous little hand-drawn devices. The bills, to the ordinary fnancier, might pass for washing bills, but they are worth good money in the fowery kingdom. Italian notes are of all sizes, shapes and colors. The smaller bills five and ten Tyre notes-are printed on white paper in pink, blue and carlnine inks, and ornamented with finely en- graved vignette of King Humbert The one hundred ruble note of Russia IS barred from top to bottom with all the eolors of the rainbow, blended as when shown through prism. In the center, in bold relief, stands a large, fnely-ex- ccuted vignette of Empress Catherine I. This is in black The other engrav- ing is not at all intricate or elaborate, but is well done in dark and light brown and black inks. The Australian bill is printed on light-colored thick paper, which shows none of the silk fiber marks or geometrical lines used in American currency as a protection against counterfeiting.

gave the Bank the inside trade on

that to prevent further exposures he
issued an order that the employees of
the Treasury Department should

Thus it goes. Democrat making
