A POPULAR PRINCESS.
Alexandra OF Wales in The Kole ct Gran


Alexandra OF Wales in the Role Of Grand
mother.
Whatever the fccliug Of Eugii8hlncn
about other members of Queen iv-
toria's family, there is only one scnti-
ment toward her daughters ;n-layv, the
princess Of Wales. Not long ago the
princess became q grandmother, and
recently she has had photograph
taken, in which she appears holding
the baby in her arms. This little great
granddaughter OF Queen Victoria is
the child of the duke and duchess of
Fife, and the curious fact about the re
cent photograph is that i'll it the prin-
cess looks Il very little older than she
appears in a similar photograph when
the mother of this baby was an infant
in the princess arms.
Another representation of the prin-
cess of Wales which Englishmen great
ly admire is Il statue begun by Prince
Victor, of IIohcnlohe-I. angenburg, and
left unfinished when he died. 1t has Just
been completed. In it the princess ap-
pears in u scholars cap and gown, with
a roll Of music in her hand. Probably
no features have ever been sculptured
and photographed oftener than those of
this royal lady, and the reason is not
that her face is beautiful alone, bnt
that it also expresses goodness.

THERE are prisoners and prisoners in
England, it would seem. Such is the
conclusion to be drawn from Home
Secretary Asquitts reply to an irate
commoner who wants to know why
such extraordinary privileges have been
granted to the Dowager Duchess of
Sutherland, who is temporarily residing
in Holloway Jail. According to the
home secretary, the English prison act
provides that first-class offenders
against the laws of the realm shall De
allowed all the privileges which the
dowager duchess now enjoys. This
must be taken to mean, of course, that
the blue plush furniture and the tapes
try to match in the dowager duchess
boudoir are not only not against the
law, but are provided for by it. If this
is as the home secretary puts it, the law
is very kind to titled offenders in Eng
land.

THE deadening nature of debt has
been shown again and again in the coal
regions of eastern Pennsylvania, where
a miner sometimes works for ten years
without receiving any cash pay ment,
because some disaster has brought him
in debt to the company store. Mine
owner and miner share the financial
risks of mining, and it sometimes hap
pens that an accident will place beyond
the miners reach thousands of tons of
coal which he has cut with months of
labor, but for which he could not draw
full pay until it had been delivered at
the breaker. While he was thus busted,
he lived upon credit at the company s
store, and the disaster left him deeply
In debt. The effect upon many men has
been to make them utterly indifferent
to their future, and at least one mine
owner, recognizing the evil results of
such conditions, makes it rule to dis
charge a miner who is hOpelessly in
debt. The discharge clears his score,
and many men thus relieved of their
burdens depart from the coal regions
with their little belongings to begin
anew elsewhere, armed with the cour-
age that hope alone can give.

Here is a touching story Gf trucl OF
conju%2l affection among the birds
taken from the Poster Lloyd: a few
days ago 4 fancier found the dead body
of male p.%con lying on the floor OF
The pigeon house. The female bird
'das Nci0chcn,' was sorrowing at the
sight Of the corpse. He threw the dead
bird into the yard and the female i'm
mcdiat>ly Jew after it, and took her
stand & its side. lie moved the body
several times, out of curiosity, and
each time he found the widow flew to
the spot and kept close to her dead
mate. At last he shut up the female,
and buried the little corpse. Half an
hour afterwards he again set her free,
when she flew about restlessly from
spot to spot, as if in search of the
missing body. For the next four days
she left her food untouched, and on
the fifth day she died, "a striking ex-
ample, as the writer says, of wife's
love among animals"

THE English and Irish people are ex-
cited over what they believe to be an at
tempt to assassinate Gladstone. A
dangerous crank is under arrest and
many things appear to bear out the be-
lief that he would have killed the pre-
mier if opportunity had offered. But
the grand old mans life work has not
yet been completed; until it is, let us
hope he may be under special providen-
tial protection. His taking off at this
time would retard home rule by a gen.

PENSION FRAUDS

Judge Lochren, the democratic COM
missioner of pensions, takes charge of
the pension bureau this week, with the
full knowledge that he has undertaken
the task of his life, and by far the
hardest job that will fall to any bureau
chief under the present administration.
He fully shares President Cieveland's
ideas that the United States pension list
should be a role of honor, and from the
start 1T will be his earnest endeavor to
make it so.
No soldier lagelly entitled to a pen
sion has anything to fear from Judge
Lachren; it is those who are drawing
pensions without any legal right to
them that are in danger from the new
administration of the pension bureau.
The roll is to be gone over carefully, as
rapidly as possible, without neglecting
the current business of the office, and
the rascals, when found, are not only to
be dropped, but wherever it can be done
they are to be compelled to repay the
money they have illegally drawn from
the government. In this good work
Judge Lochren will be glad of the CO.
operation of every good citizen.
If any citizen in any part Of the
country knows of any man who draws
a pension without being entitled to it he
should at once communicate with Judge
Lochren, giving the facts as far as he
knows them, in order that an official
examination may be made. 1t is be-
lieved that the old soldiers themselves
will aid In this work as soon as they be-
come convinced, as they soon must be,
that only the frauds are in any danger
of losing their pensions.

A pllnd mathematician.

An extraordinary instance of sue
cess, in spite of being sorcly handi-
capped in the race, has, says the
Sketch, lately occurred at Berlin at
the university in the Prussian capital
student named Max Meyer, of the
age of twenty-seven, propounded with
such brilliancy and intellectual power
his thesis on the differential calculus
that the examiners hailed his prowess
with acclamation, and at once pro-
claimed that he was deserving of q
special degree as doctor. The point OF
the story lies in the fact that Max
Meyer is blind, and has learned. tc
read by touch alone. Perhaps the
most notable parallel to his case is
that of the late Prof. Henry Fawcett

SIX W0RKMEN persisted

NARROW ESCAPE OF oTHERlNM

diary-Twenty Workmen who BOARDED
There Caught in Their Beds-List of the
Dead.
BURLINGTON, Iowa, May IAN old brick
tenement house at No. 800 jefferson street
was destroyed by fire and six of its inmates
burned to death early yesterday morning.
The lodging house was conducted by a
Mrs. Julson. She and young servant
girl named Maggie Bailey were the only
women in the building. The dodgers were
of the poorer class of laborers and mechan-
les, about 20 of whom occupied the various
rooms up stairs. The building was a YER
table fire trap, consisting of winding hall
ways and dark landings, some of the rooms
being without windows. So quickly did
the fire spread that the unfortunate victims
were caught like rats in a trap.
The names of the dead are as follows:
Michael Hines, a transient lodger.
Michael Lee, of Chicago, a stove moulder.
John Morgan, stove moulder, residence
unknown.
f. G.. Schumann, carpet weaver.
Joseph Swendler, of Burlington, a plas
terer.
Charlie ---, a boilermaker, supposed
co be from Chicago.
All We're burned in a shocking and al
most unacceptable manner.
Maggie Bailey, a servant, slept in {
room just back Of the office down stairs
The fire started in her room. She says sh'

However, if Cornell should challenge the
