not wheeled about.
The carvings are highly elaborate

stories about the symbolic nature OF
the carvings, and a shilling viii pro-

The continental monarchies have
been far more liberal in providing
throne chairs for their sovereigns than
the English people. This is, perhaps,
because only British royalty must give
an account of how its subjects money
is spent.
Emperor William, upon assuming his
prerogatives, gave orders for the con-
struction of two elaborate throne
chairs. One was for the emperor of
Germany, the other for the king of
Prussia. Hardly was the working of
making them begun than the young
ruler changed his mind and decided
that the paternal seats would do.
The present imperial throne chair Of
the empire of Germany seems never to
have been intrinsically appraised, but
one hundred thousand dollars is hard

and its present appurtenances have
cost. Its design is symbolical of the

On that portion of Fifth avenue,
above Madison square, in New York,
which is almost entirely given over to
trade, the unusual spectacle has been
frequently presented, during recent
years, of a woman, as well dressed as
the average woman who walks on
Fifth avenue, with glistening stones
on her ears and at her throat, bending
over and carefully examining the con-
tents of garbage cans which stand on
the outer edge of the pavement.
She is not looking for what the rag
woman seeks, however. She gives her
attention only to those cans that have
been set out by milliners and dress
makers. She carefully asserts such
bits of lace, feathers, silk and the like
that she encounters. The crowds troop
ing by do not concern her, as handful
after handful of culled scraps are
stored away in her satchel.
She is middle-aged and so neatly at

the subject of thrones is appropriately
dense, in spite of the fierce light poet

Thus Queen Victoria's subjects, to
cite the leading nation among mon

take her seat in a trinity of thrones.
As queen of Great Britain she occupies
the chair upon which fortunes have
been spent and which, hidden beneath
cloth of gold and elevated upon dais
of four steps, lives in the history of
human glory as the throne of England.

HIS Career.
Fon. Edwin Full Uhl, of Grand Rap
ids, Mich, who succeeds Josiah Quincy
as assistant secretary of state, is said
to be especially fitted for the position.
There was some surprise expressed by
his friends when he accepted the posi-
ton, as he had declined another as
sistant secretaryship paying larger
salary in the spring. Mr.. Uhl is about
forty-five years of age and has for ten
wears been leader in the democratic
party of Michigan. He has been mayor
of Grand Rapids for two years, but
never held any other Office. though re-
garded as in the list of eligibles for
senatorial or gubernatorial honors.
The new assistant secretary of state
is a country boy. His parents are
