with the brush wickups and cloth or

PARIS. Aug. 27.-In spite of the popu-
lar impression that prevails in many parts
of the old world that princes of the blood
are constructed of different clay from ordl-
nary folks; that their royalty Is semlsacFec
sn its character, and that, theoretically at
any rate, they can do no wrong, the TACT
remains that they are just as human, just
As weak under temptation and Just as
s,rone to err as the remainder Of mankind
This being the case, the question naturally
nrises as 70 how they are punished when
they misbehnVe themselves. OF course
do not refer to princes Of tender years, for
we all know that the emperor Of Germany
is accustomed to repress the exuberance OF
his eldest three boys by vigorous spank
ings, and that Queen Victoria on ore
memorable occasion, when her S-year-oid
grandson, George, now duke OF ork, hao
perpetrated some piece Of rudeness at din
ner. ordered him 10 stand in the corner.
Neither Age Nor Rank Can Save Them.
The scions Of royalty whom 7 have in
mind however, are those VINO have passed
beyond the age Of being spanked, Of being
stood up in a corner by their grandnas and
of being sent 10 bed in disgrace. These
are usually disciplined by confinement to
their apartments, coupled with temporary
deprivation Of their swords. This pun
tshrnent is known IN French as aux ar
rets. " while in Germany it is styled stu
benarrest 1t is very frequently infict-
ed. and many of the absences Of royal per
sonages from public festivities and state
functions which are attributed by the OF
fetal court journals and by the daily
press to indisposition are due, on the con-
trary, to some such penance rs this.
Neither age nor rank can save princes
from this form of discipline, and l have

newspaper man replied. THE Cunari feet

aggregate $50, o00 The other sources of
income from the ship. such as freight, the
mails, the steerage and the bar. amount to
almost as much again. The clear profit of

smashing Crockery.
"That's very interesting the journal
ist put in, but do you happen TO know
the enormous expense involved in break
age on a single voyage? In rough weather
particularly the crockery broken would
supply an ordinary village for year. The
chief steward just told me that on the last
passage TO New York his crockery list
showed breakage of 800 plates, ESQ cups,
43S saucers, 1918 tumblers, 200 wine
glasses, 81 decanters and 90 water bottles
That breakage alone cost more than $500.
And yet, pooh! What's that TO a COM

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-Ex-Mayor Hewitt
of this city is one of those men who have
taken intense interest in the remarkable
and ominOus developments that have been
made in all parts of the country during
the past year Mr.. Hewitt is now nearing
20 years of age, but his intellectual powers
seem to be untouched by the years that have
passed over his head, and he seems to be
even more public spirited now that he has
retired permanently from public life than
he was when he held conspicuous office.
Having nothing to ask of the politicians,
he seems to be girded by that moral cour-
age which at times fails even some of the
ablest men in public life. BY a single i'm
promptu speech, made not long ago, he
caused the Chamber of Commerce, the
most conservative and influential asSocia-
ton of business men in New York city, to
turn back on its proposed action and to
support a policy with respect to vast IN
foreground railway system in New York

made, it had been opposed Not for many
