King Oscar and the Pope.

An amusing story of the manner in
which his holiness was greeted by King
Oscar of Sweden when he visited Rome
is told by one of the returned pilgrims.
On approaching the pontiff King Oscar
extended his hand. a good son of the
church would, of course, have knclt and
kissed the pope's extended ring-Pro-
testant monarchs have before now bent
the knee to the pope. But King Oscar,
grasping his brother monarchs" hand.
shook it warmly, and then, STOPPING
down, embraced his holiness, kissing
him etfusivcly on the check. The pope
was as much amused by this irregular
form of greeting as the bystandcrs were
Mortified.

tackled which has made his name known
throughout two continents. He first
attracted worldwide attention by open
ly charging that the gun-makers who
supplied the German army with rifles
had grossly swindled the government
and that the fighting weapons of the
army were absolutely useless
These statements caused profound
sensation, but Ahlwardt was unable to
sustain his position and was convicted
of libel and imprisoned. A few days
ago he again made himself conspicuous
by declaring in the rcichstag, of which
he is a member, that large sums of
money belonging to the government
had been dishonesty paid to certain
Hebrew SPECTATORS during Bismarc<'s
occupancy of the chanccllorship The
explosion OF this bombshcll fairly shook
the German empire, but Ahlwardt again
failed to sustain his rash statements
and was laughed and Missed out of the
rcichstag. In the judgment of many
the man is slightly unbalanced.

THE PENSION PROBLEM
Suggestions OF a Solution of tho vexed
and Varied Question.


and Varied Question.
WASHINGTON, April 21.-One of the plans
for solving the problem of tariff reform
which is being urged upon President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle is the
issue of treasury certificates bearing n low
rate of interest to cover the pension ar
rcars. Tho actual annual value of the
present pension list is about sl25, 00O, 900,
but S40000,00O to S50,O0O0O0 is added to
this by the granting of new pension certifi-
Gates.
Mr.. Edward Atkinson, of Boston, and
Professor David A. Wells, of Connecticut,
are inclined to the view that these arrears
are not n legitimate charge upon the tax
list of the present, and that they might
properly be funded into certificates, re-
deemable after short term at the pleasure
of the government and issued in small de-
nominations. The great fiscal problem
would then become comparatively simple
The internal revenue receipts of them
selves almost meet the ordinary expendi-
lures of the government, outside of interest
and pensions.
