The Oueen's Looks Dlspleased Them.

When the Queen opened the Imperial
Institute in London recently. her sub
jects had the privilege OF seeing her
iace, a thing they have not done In
many years. The prevailing feeling was
one OF disappointment. The Queen did
not look queenly enough to safety COM
mon critics, who. having been accus-
toned by the illustrated papers and the
coiners at the mint to the idea OF a tall,
majestic woman, were keenly chagrined
to find that the actual Queen OF Great
Britain and Ireland, etc., Empress Of
India, ,tc., was q very small, wrinkled
old lady, with no physical marks Of dis
tinction whatsoever, and during the
greater part Of the route huddled up in
a corner OF the big carriage In q curious
aud decidedly ~undlgnified manne For
people who were near enough to the
grand entrance door to sec the royal
personages alight there was another
disenchantment In store. Nine persons
out OF ten are under the impression that
the Duke of York Is q fine, big strap
ping fellow. as q typical sailor ought to
be. But 1t was seen hat his royal high
ness is a short, rather weakly looking
young man, with q distinct tendency to
be podgy, and that h future wife ia
quite a half head taller than he.

to find all but one, and this he was
finally constrained to believe lost for

up. His attention happened to be at

looked like q leaf and was coming

but through all the wrinkles OF time he
discovered the beautiful features OF the

May Write Up the Colony.

MRS. ALLISON, who registers as
coming from Chicago, is looking into
the workings of the divorce colony at
Sioux Falls with more than ordinary
interest. She was in Sioux Falls a
few months ago representing eastern
papers, and while there wrote several
juicy articles on divorce cases, princi-
pally the Mrs. de Stuers, Mrs. Blaine,
Jr., and Edward Pollock cases. 1t is
understood that she is at present pre-
pairing an article for an eastern news
paper in which several sensational
cases now pending will be aired. 1t is
also rumored that Mrs. Allison has
made arrangements for a several
months stay in that city, and will dur
ing that time secure, If poss ible, a di-
vorce from her husband.

NEWSPAPERS THIEVES.
Ono of Them Arrested Yesterday Morn
ing.

The REGISTER, in common with
every other newspaper, circulating in
this city, has suffered much annoyance
In the past through the operations Of
petty thieves, who steal papers from the
premises OF subscribers and either read
them or sell them on the streets.
The loss and annoyance re-
suting OF course falls heavily
upon the subscriber, who, going to his
door in the early morning for his favor
tie paper, finds 1t missing at just the
moment when its contents are most val
liable, and likely at the only time he
has leisure for glance at the news OF
the day. In the great majority OF cases
the thieves are young boys, who make
excursions about the streets until they
have obtained several copies OF the morn
ing paper from front doors and yards,
and then hasten away to dispose OF
them, and OF late they have operated
among the SUNDAY REGISTERS sub
scri6ers on the Island very extensively.
Complaints poured into the Office from
subscribers until IL was determined an
example must be made OF some one.
and yesterday morning a detective went
to the Seventh ward. As a result he
caught James Deters, Jr., OF the ISL
and, in the act Of stealing papers, and
he was arresteds by Officer Terrill and
taken to the City Hall. He was placed
in the Lookup Keepers back office I'M
til State warrant could be prepared,
but as the door was left unlocked he
evaded Assistant Keeper Wilkie and
made his escape. His mother in
formed the police later that
she would bring the boy to the City
Hall at nine o'clock this morning, at
which time a State warrant for petit
larceny will be in readiness.
Two or three other boys are known
to be engaged in the same work, and
they are running considerable risk of
arrest and prosecution, as the REGIS
TER is determined put to stop to the
annoyance to its patrons.

A BAD sMAsH-UP.
A Car CoIlides With Buggy, and Badly
Injuries Mule.

A Car CoIlides With a Buggy, and Badly
Injuries a Mule.
A bad collision occurred about eleven
o'clock yesterday morning, between a
vehicle drawn by two mules and an
electric motor. A man named Kellar,
living in Bellaire, was driving up Eotf
street, from all that can be learned OF
the affair, with blackboard, drawn cy
two mules. At a point below Thirty
sixth street, the animals became
stubborn and stopped in the track, in
front Of an approaching motor. The
car struck one Of the mules, and knock
ed the team off the track. The animal
was thrown down, and the car was up
on it, before it was stopped. The car
was reversed, and the animal released,
when it was found that one OF the
mules legs was broken.
The mule was permitted to lie In the
street all afternoon, and crowd was
present all the time. Last night an
officer put the animal out Of its misery.
The owner was very indignant about
the affair, and places the blame for the
accident on the motorman. He threat
ened TO bring suit against the street
railway company.

Bloody Family Row.

Just before noon today Detective
Fred Bader and Officers Foster and

house of Mrs. MillingtOn, on
Avenue ID. A reporter for the
LIGHT was soon present, and
learned that the cause of the visit
of the officers, was a family row,
in which Mrs. Millington received
several gashes, causing the loss Of
considerable blood. Every effort
possible was used by the authori-
ties to ascertain what the
trouble was, but nothing
could be learned. All the
old lady would say, was "it does
not amount to anything, send for
a doctor" In one room of the
house was found her two sons. 1t
is thought that family difficulty
arose, and that in combat, Mrs
Millington was cut. She has a
cash on the face and her head is
cut. There We're no arrests, as
none of the parties concerned
would relate the circumstances.

SAM SMALL'S LECTURE.
He is Hard on the San Antonio
Saloon Keepers.

SdlOOn hScpoIs.
Travis Park Methodist church
was filled to overlooking with San
Antonians of all classes and ma
tionalities last night, to hear the
distinguished Rev. Sam Small, Of
Atlanta, lecture on the subject
"From Bar-roOm to Pulpit"
Mr.. Small was introduced by
Rev. w. w. Pinson and stepped
forward on the platform and
first viewed the vast audi
ence. He then announced his
subject. He gave clear and
thrilling account of his life, refer
ring first to the days where he, as
a newspaper man frequented
saloons and INDUCED too freely in
liquor, and then related the ptiiful
story of his downfall the pleas of
his wife, that he may become a
better man; the feeling he enter
tanned when attending in his pro-
fessional duty, one Of Sam Jones'
meetings, and then gave a
version of his conversion.
He followed this up to the
time of his entering into the min
istry. The story of his life was
thrilling and touching, and the
language with which he expressed
portions of his discourse brought
tears to the eyes of many within
his hearing.
Sam Small thought his lecture
would not be complete without
giving dab" at the San Antonio
saloon keepers, so he said among
