Russian Realty Regulations.

Princess Hohenlohe, the wife of the
governor general of Alsace-Lorraine,
inherited from her uncle, Russian
general, estates in Russia worth SO,-
900, 900 or 4O,0O0,oOC rubles. Under the
Russian law foreign non-residents can
not hold property, and the princess
was compelled to sell her estates at
once. She asked the czar to grant her
little time, as the financial strin-
gency, which prevails in Russia as we'll
as in this country, has made real estate
hard to dispose of. The czar, how
ever, for political reasons, refused to
grant the extension and the poor wom-
an was able TO realize only beggarly
pittance of Is, 900, 900 OF 20, Oo0, 900 rubles

Certainly we don't"
81 want to know whether you fasten
one hand in the victims hair and brace
a knee against his throat, and then
draw his tooth as though you were

''Why, that would be murder; YOU
feel no pain at all"
That's what the dentist told me

whether you use jimmy to draw a

whether you will replace, free of

REFUSED A THRONE.

The Heir Presumptive of Austria Thrown
Over for Young Lieutenant.
Some time ago, says Vienna Letter
in the London News, it was believed
that the heir presumptive to the Aus
trian throne, Archduke Francis Ferdi-
nand, would marry his Bavarian cous-
iE's daughter, Princess Elizabeth. 1t
is now heard that the idea existed, and
was much favored by the emperor, but
the young princess frustrated these
plans.
More than year ago she began tc
look approvingly upon handsome
young lieutenant, Baron S.. The
young officer began by riding past her
windows couple of times day, then
he obtained a room with windows
facing Prince Leopold's palace. In the
winter, at court balls, the lieutenant
danced oftener than any other with the
princess, and in the spring lawn tennis
brought them more together still.
All at once the young officer was
transferred to a regiment stationed in
Alsace; and this seemed the tame end
of romantic story. But in the sum
mer, when Princess Elizabeth staid
with her emperor grandpa at Ischl, she
is supposed to have used her time so
well that the emperor promised to
make the baron a prince, to give him
some landed property, and to allow the
happy couple to marry if their love
was proof against time.
The princess is nineteen, pretty, per-
fectly natural, and very sweet-tem-
pered. That she should have preferred
union with the man she loves to the
certainty of an imperial throne will
not ALLEVIATE the sympathies of those
who know her and love her for her
natural prace
