A KINGS HEART FOR SALE.

II seems almost impossible that even in
France such an incident should occur. 1t
Is, however, the fact that the heart OF
him who was king of France during the
period which elapsed from the execution
Of Louis XVI, on January 81, 1898, until
June 8, 1895, is offered for sale in Paris.
One would think the authorities would
step in to stop such CHASTITY auction,
but there is no sign Of interference. There
appears to be no valid reason to doubt
that the relic in question is the heart Of
the son OF Louis XVI and his queen.
Marie Antoinette, the lad who stands in
French history as Louis XVII. The
story Of the poor little victim OF cruelty
in the name OF liberty is well known. He
was put 10 charge OF shoemaker named
Simon, who treated him with abolute
brutality. For six months after Simon
had surrendered his charge the child was
kept IL solitary confinement, deprived OF
exercise and OF needed medical attention,
and when relief came at last. through q
revival OF humane sentiment in the
breasts OF his prosecutors, 1t came too
late. The little boy, then about 10 years
Of age, was Silent and listless, his body
deyoured by disease and his mind wasted
with misery. Notwithstanding kindness
and excellent medical care the child pass
ed away in the prison where be had lin
gered through a wretched existence OF
several years. During the autopsy which
followed the leading surgeon, q celebrated
practitioner named Pelletan, saved the

woxEs complain about the Columbia

WOMEN complain about the Columbian
stamps because they are so large that it
takes great expanse OF tongue TO sup
ply the moisture. The idea OF using
postage stamps to commemorate the dis
covery OF America did not originate in
the brain of Uncle Sam, for the Argen-
tine Republic issued memorial stamps on
the 18th day OF October, 1892, which OBJ
served by word and picture the landing
Of Columbus. These stamps were issued
for the one day and then withdrawn.
They are now valued by philatelists at

ARTzONA'S CLIFF JEWELLERS.

In his reprt the secretary Of the interi-
or the governor Of Arizona suggests that
within the limits Of that territory may
yet be discovered solution Of the most
interesting problem connected with this
continent. The governor believes that
an investigation among the cliff and cave
jewellers Of Arizona would establish their
connection with the early Asiatic races,
and he recommends that commission
shall be appointed by congress to make
the proposed chronological research.
Without raising the question Of the
feasibility Of acting on the recommends
tlon, it may be said that the settlement
Of the identity of the mound Builders"
would prove OF great interest to American
scholars and to the American public gen.
orally.
Traces Of the existence OF these people
and even Of their great power and num-
bers abound in nearly all parts Of the
country. From the Alleghanies west to
the Rockies, and from the Gulf far into
British America, tho remains Of ancient
Notifications, sepulchers and affairs are
found in numbers. Beneath these have
been discovered human skeletons, pipes,
pottery and various implements OF war
and husbandry, relics Of race long ex-
tinct before the first white man set foot
on the shores Of the new world. The
traditions OF the natives whom the first
settlers found in possession Of the country
told practically nothing Of their prede-
cessors. The remains Of the Mound
Builders have left behind them go to
show that they practiced the art of agri-
culture as we'll as Of the chase, that they
made a coarse kind Of cloth, were quite
skillful in the fabrication Of ornaments
and utensils, and were superior in all re-
spects to the fierce and nomad;c tribes
which succeeded them.
1t is believed that they were peaceful
people, but were compelled to build the
Notifications whose remains exist rs de-
Tense against less civilized but more
warlike race, which probably occupied
the mountains and roamed az hunters
over the unoccupied plains. The Mound
builders we're at last apparently overcome
and pressed southwark towards the Dor.

been their original home. In this region

him. He afterward placed the relic In
brandy.
When Louis XVII came to the throne
after the overthrow of Napoleon, Pelletan
offered the heart 10 the king for entomb-
ment at st. Dennis. The king took no
notice Of the offer, whereupon Pelletan
sent the relic to the sacristy Of archbishop
OF Paris. The next revolution came 10
July, 1880, when n mob plundered the
palace OF the archbishop, and DIR. Jules
Pelletan, son of the surgeon who had
performed the autopsy, rescued the heart
from destruction at considerable personal
risk. The relic is now brought to public
auction as part Of the assets Of his es-
tate. Jules Pelletan having recently died.
The incident recalls the fact that a
number Of persons have claimed TO be
the real Dauphin, as the unfortunate
child is generally called, grounding their
claim on the story that the prince was
taken out of prison surreptitiously and
another child substituted. If this story
is true it is singular that the smugglers
did not succeed in taking the child to its
royal ..or imperial relatives beyond the
frontier and receiving the large reward
that would have gladly been paid. The
authorities Of the first French republic
certainly seem never to have entertained
any doubt as to the identity OF the prison
er Of the Temple.
There have, however, been various
sham Dauphins. One of these was
young man called Hervagault, the son OF
tailor, who ran away from home and
pretended to be Louis XVII. He was
entertained in genrious fashion by people
Of royalist tendencies and received also
large contributions Of money. Napoleon
was then in power, and Fou che, the
minister Of police, caused the arrest OF
Hervagault, who was first imprisoned as
q swindler and afterwards as lunatic,
and died in 1872. One Mathurin Brun-
eau, the son of a maker Of wooden shoes,
also caused some stir by his pretensions,
and our own country had q pretender in
the person of the Rev. Eleazer Williams,
. missionary among the Indians, who
sincerely believes that he was the Dau-
phin, on grounds which have led many
others, even to this day. to place faith in
his claims. The most persistent of these
pretenders was one Herbert, who
called himself Duce de Normandie,
and who had the effrontery to protest
against the accession of Louis XVII, to
the throne. Herbet spent much Of his
life in prison, which appears to have his
chief point Of resemblance to the Dauphin.
He appears 10 have had dupes even down
to his death in 1853. A Prussian named
Naundrf also gained some notoriety by
his claims to be heir to the throne OF
France. Naundorff was merely swim
dler, and not self deceived, as some. and
perhaps all, the other claimants were
He succeeded, however, in deceiving
others, and the noted French statesmen,
M. Jules Favre, appears to have had
some confidence in his pretensions. There
is, however, no real ground to doubt the
unhappy fate Of the child born amid splsn-
dor and amid the gloom OF the Temple.

until James W. Murphy, another keeper,

New YORK, April 20. A special to the
Evening World from Sing Sing says Muir
dsrers Thomas Pallister and Frank W.
Rohle, both under sentence of deatn, have
escaped from the condemned coils Of Sing
Sing prison.
The discovery was made at J:f0 thi3 morn
ing. When Guard Glyun entered tao con
demned cell building as usual at that hour
he was astonished at discovering the two
night watchmen locked in murderors' cells.
When the guards were rees sed they told
n remark Ia Die story. Guard Hulse s6.d that
at O'CLOCK last night he passed supper in
to Palhster. The condemned man thre "
handful of pepper into tne guards eyes.
Huise was blinded and Paliister rIlshed on
him, took his revolver away from him and
under threats OF death forced HulGe into
bis (Palistor) cell, Gtst taking his keys away
from him. flo then locked Hulss in tho
cell of murderer Frank Kohle.
Tue two murderers then unlocked the
cells OF Carlyle w. Harris and murderer
Osmoud They invited these two TO escape
with them. Both Harris ana Osmond re-
fused the offer 10 escape. Folister aud
Rohle waited till o'clock, when Guard
Murphy came on duty. AS Murphy entered
the corridor,
Pallistor Presented Ills PISTOL
at Murphy's head, and taking his keys away
from him, locked him in Ronle's cell. Pal
listor took Guard Huse's shoes aud cap
away from him aud put thenl on himself.
Threatening to kill the guards il they
made an outcry the Two murderers climbed
TO the top OF tho cells aud knocked Off the
scuttle in the roof. In this way they got
on the roof, climbed down into tho yard,
and made their escape, whether by the river
or over the walls was not known this morn
ing. The terribly stormy night facilitated
their escape
As soon as their escape was reported
Warden Brown sent out his men TO scour
the country. Ii is supposed that Pallistsr
had been saving the perpsr given him daily
with his meals with the object OF escape in
view.
Both escaped mon were dressed in dark
quits Of prison made clothes not the regular
convict dress. Rohle wore slippers, fails-
ter had on the guards shoes and cap. 1t is
believed that Rohle is bareheaded. Palister
ard Rohle carried with them the two reyol-
vers they took from Hulse ana hiurphy.
Pallister murdered Policeman Adam Kane
at Grand street and South FIFTH avenue,
New York, aud Rohle killed eu old man
named Paulsen in his Hester street apart
ment.
After hearing oil the particulars Warden
Brown suspended Keepers Hulse, Murphy,
Maber and Flynn. Mahsr and Flynn were
supposed to be doing guard duty in and
about the death house. They say they
didn't hear anything of the escape till early
this morning and did not hear Murphy and
Hulse calling for help when they were lock
ed in the cells.
This is reported by the prison officials as
strange and the conduct OF Mahsr and Flynn
will DO thoroughly investigated. Harris in
talking 20 the keepers afterward, made
much of his having declined to leave his
cell, and it was suggested that the affair
might have sons weight with the governor
in the appeal tar executive clemency.

New NoRK, April q. - r. G.. Dun &

Thus outside reports reflect conditions ex-
isting prior to the lar-' ehipments OF gold
while the markets her. ye boon declining

Reports from other cities show extensive
embarrassment from severe storms and
tie back ward spring, wlth some signs Of
shrinkage Of trade from other cau.es. Bust
ness at Boston Is quiet, retail trade in dry
goods moderate. Print cloths lower and
other cottors easy. Few new orders are
seen for Woollens, though mills are still
busy. The tardy spring makes clothing
quiet, and the advance IN ahoes retards
buying.
The building trade is eotive and the de-
mand for lumber large but sales of wool
ara moderate. In textile fabrics mills are
still busy with Old orders but the new de-
mand is at present slender. Collections
