his wound was fatal and he expir-

The strange conduct of Mrs.

Krupp's Kingdom.

When Prince Napoleon visited
the Krupp works at Essen, he ex-
claimed: "Why, this is State

fleet on the possible umbrage the
fact would give to some govern
ments. As matter of fact the

the Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe,
who married Princess Victoria, the
sister of the Emperor William.
The kingdom of steel and iron,
governed by a monarch without
crown or sceptre, who holds in his
hands the prosperity and means of
livelihood of his dependents, is a
region more thickly populated than
four or five of the small adjacent
municipalities. If the furnaces of
Essen were suddenly extinguished
$1,000 workmea, $4,000 women,
children and aged people would
probably starve, and this grand to-
tai of $4,000 human beings recog-
nizes the sway of one man, their
master and the descendant of the
founder of the works.-New York

The Steam Man.

The Scientific American'calls at
tention to the "steam man." 1t is,
in few words, a steam machine
formed like a man which walks
though what the special use Of it,
if not a mere toy, is not shown. 1t
is the invention of Mr.. George
Moore of Canada, and is said to be
powerful enough to pull ten ordi-
nary persons in a wagon. In NOV
ing it initiates the motion of the
human body exactly, the action of
the hip, knee and ankle being most
natural. The speed, however, is
not more than four or five miles an
hour. The boiler is in the body.
and is heated by gasoline; the en-
CINE is just below the boiler and
capable of 5000 revolutions per
minute. From the engine the ex-
haust pipe leads to the nose of the
figure, whence the steam escapes
when the machine is in motion.
Through the head the smoke Aue
is carried, and the products of COM
bustion escape from the top of the
helmet. The steam gauge is placed
by the side of the neck. The skirts
of the armor open like doors, so as
to give free access to the engine.
The main body of the figure is
made of heavy tin.

Buried Treasure.

CITY OF MEXICO, June IA few
days ago some old and musty doc
uments were found here by which
it was learned that treasure, con-
sisting of jewelry and gold coin,
amounting in value to 100000,
had been buried on Pepetua street,
in this city. The documents bear
official marks and state that the
wealth was secreted be orders of
the Emperor Macmillan. The
discovery of these documents pro-
duced a sensation, and preparations
were at once made for unearthing
the treasure. Only a small portion
was recovered, when work was
temporarily interrupted by a flow
of water into the cavity.

BLoUNrs SUCCESSOR.
Judge sneed o. Tennesses to be
Minister TO Hawaii.

WASHINGTON, June At is re-
ported here tonight that President
Cleveland has decided upon a sue
cessor to Mr.. Blount in Honolulu
Blount, it is claimed, has repeat
edly asked to be relieved. The
appointment will probably be
made tomorrow. Rumor has it
that Judge Sneed of Memphis is
the man selected for the pest, dou-
bly, important in view Of the grave
questions that may arise within
the next three years. Mr.. Sneed
has many admirers in Washing
ton. He is a warm friend Of the
President, and his appointment
will give satisfaction here.
MEMPHIS, June At is re-
ported tonight that a telegram was
received this afternoon by Judge 7.
1T. Sneed from Secretary Gresham
stating that the president had de-
cided to appoint him minister to
the Hawaiian Islands to relieve
special envoy Blount. The ap-
pointment will probably be Off
cially announced tomorrow. Judge
Sneed is one of the ablest lawyers
of the Tennessee bar, having for
many years been a member of the
supreme court, he enjoying q lucra-
tive law practice before the State
and the United States supreme
court, and is regarded as one Of the
best constitutional lawyers in the
country. He is an expert inguist,
profound thinker and scholar,
and as an orator he has few su-
periors. Judge Sneed is at his
country home, and could not be
interviewed tonight.

the finest wines and liquors to be had
in that market, also all the modern
improvements now in use in all first
class bars in America, such as the
rapid safety filter, the only one in
the Hawaiian islands, the result of
which must be seen to be appreci

He DWELLs ON RUSSIA AND
THE SPANISH INQUISITION.
But Bis Clients Are Not Allowed
Bail Just the Same, and the
Case Goes Over.

The three alleged conspirators,
E. B. Crick, Archibald Sinclair and
T. B. Walker appeared in the dis
trict court on Saturday morning
for the preliminary hearing. The
court room was well crowded with
people from all walks of life, who
were anxious to get a glimpse of
the three men who, it is claimed,
were to do up the government in
short order.
The defendants were arraigned
in the prisoners dock, but they
looked very tame. A night in Jail
appeared to have a very chilling
effect on their revolutionary
minds, Everybody in the court
room seemed to be worked up to a
fever heat, and when the case was
called there was long pause.
Finally Attorney General Smith
read the complaint which charges
the three defendants with con-
spiracy. After reading it he
asked for a continuance until Tues
day or Wednesday, giving as rea-
son that the prosecution was not
ready to go to trial.
This statement brought Charles
Creighton to his feet. Creighton
appeared for the defendants. He
declared that his clients were en-
titled to hearing at once or else the
court should allow the three men
to be liberated on bail. He scored
the Provisional government and
compared it to Russia and the days
of the Spanish inquisition. In a
loud harangue he claimed that the
attorney general was the grand in
quisiter. He closed his remarks
by opposing any continuance I'M
less his clients were allowed bail.
J. A. Magoon, who appeared in
the interest of Sinclair, said that
he thought the defendants were en-
titled to an Immediate hearing or
else the judge should allow bail.
The encouragement, who APP
peared to be the ONLY cool man in
the room, reminded the court that
the question of bail was left to his
discretion. He and his colleagues,
in the executive council, thought it
best not to allow bail in the case,
and the court could not order 9TH
erwise.
After some talk in which Creigh-
ton said he had not been allowed to
visit his clients, the court an
nounced that according to the law
it could not grant bail, and as for
the continuance, it would be
granted. By consent of both sides
Wednesday morning was named as
the time when the hearing would
come up. During Saturday after
noon Mr.. Creighton was notified
that he could see his clients alone
whenever he so wished.
There was a rumor current yes
terday that another arrest for con-
spiracy had been made. 1t proved
to be unfounded. Fridays arrests
have had one good effect on the
royalist faction, as the heretofore
loud-spoken ones are keeping very
quiet, and on Saturday supporters
of the defunct monarchy hied them
selves home or elsewhere.

How to Be Agreeable ?

Everybody wants to be popular.
And to be popular one must be
Agreeable.
How shall it be accomplished
In the first place, never forget
yourself.
Bear always in mind that you are
first and other people second.
Take care of No. l."
Consult your own convenience in
everything.
1t Is no matter who Is inconven-
fenced, if you are only satisfied.
Don't put yourself ont to consider
other peoples feeling.
Let them keep their feelings out
of the way if they don't want them
trifed with.
In society always take the lead in
conversation.
If you want to say anything, say it
never mind whom it hits.
They needn't take it il they don't
deserve it.
It doesn't matter who else is talk
ing, Just you say your say; you have
as good a right to talk as anybody.
If you have an idea promulgate it
at once; if you let it alone too long
it might get lonely and depart for
ever, and the world would be the
loser.
Talk continually Fill all the
pauses.
1t is wicked to allow valuable time
to RI INTO waste.
Interrupt always when you see fit.
1t teaches people to hurry up and
not be too long winded.
If a person is telling an interesting
story, smile knowingly all through,
and Just as he has reached the dem
ouement, exclaim
"Oh, 1 heard that story years
ago !"
1t will prevent the narrator from
feeling too important, and it is your
duty to always cultivate a spirit Of
due humility in-your neighbors.
If anyone tells anything partleu-
larly striking, just you 60 to work
and tell something a little more 80.
Try and not be beaten.
In conversing of absent friends,
never permit yourself to descend 70
mere gossip.
Let others thus demean them
selves, but do you keep silent and
when when any individual whom you
do not quite like is mentioned draw
your face, smile family and heave a
sigh.
Signs in such a case speak volumes.
We would rather anybody should
preach our degenerscy from the
house tops than to sigh over Us.
When people begin to sigh over
you, you are pretty nearly undone-
Follow faithfully these few simple
suggestions, and If you fail Of being
one or two things is certains
you were either born too early or too
late, and the world is not in a condi-
ton to appreciate you.
