He wrote the manager that his engine
wasn't warm enough to cook a dividend.
The manager admitted in reply that he
had been sadly put to it recently, and
that he knew his motive power was not
up to standard, but hoped that change of
scene and rest would bring out the stock
in sufficient shape to go through this
winter. He was very sorry, he said, and
would promise that the engine should be

That was easy enough. for man could

An old man was sitting in seat across

With that he slapped the leg of chap

By my side there sat week ago a
quiet man about 43 years of age, who
put his grip in the wall pocket overhead.

PRINCESS ANGELINA.

fR1NCESS ANdELlNE.
a correct report to the public or suffer
from CARRIED accounts now at large ev-
erywhere.
Since the sad story of the Princess Co.
lonna, the daughter-or stepdaughter,
rather-of my old friend John w. Mac
kay, lhave been given great big pause
a pair of them, for that matter-as re-
CARDS the union of wealthy Americans to
titled but unfumigated foreigners.
The Prince Colonna has gambled away
quarter of million francs at one time
belonging to the princess, and now she
has had to steal away from her home in
Italy with her three children to escape
him.
In this l do not wish in any way to
reflect on my own royal fiancee, who has
borne good character for over 60 years,
but she is poor and is said to be gam
bier, having spent two years recently
catching fish enough to pay the poker
debt of one evening at court.
Excuse me for appearing cold and stol-
i'd to the charms of the princess, to whom
I promised my hand in marriage so soon
as times should pick up, but aside from
being royal gambler, and sometimes
even royal flush gambler, Princess An
geline is said to allow her socks to sag in
summer time and to pause during the
music while dancing the oxford to whoop
them up.
No one knows how hate to give this
fact to the press, but royalty, and espe-
cially royalty that has demonetized it.
self and is out of a job, gives me that
tired feeling so noticeable in the spring
of the year.
Scan carefully the picture of the prin-
cess copied here from portrait now in
the Vatican. Note the low, retreating
forehead and the scornful curl of the lip.
Take man with my style of long suffer-
ing and forbearance, and you can see
that would experience hell on earth.
Regard the safety pin in the shawl!
What poor taste in a court costume!
Even in a court of oyer and terminer
that would not go! Safety pins are ade-
light; but, like the truss, they should not
be worn on the outside.
Notice the wide sweep of nostrils, de-
noting longevity and hellish temper
from away back behind the centuries.
No, Princess Angelina. If You say ap-
peal to the courts, all right, but l feel
almost certain that if I married you

to stay at home. could not love you as
person of your size ought to be loved.
l never could love woman who could
not read fine print and boil eggs.
Twas fool to ever make this promise
to the princess. She was so plain, how

THE YOUNG QUEEN VICTORIA.
Her Majesty's Actions ON Being Notified Of
the Kings Demise.

the Kings Demise.
William Nv was dead. The arch
bishop Of CsnteI bury and Lord Conyng-
ham were dispatched to inform the
Princess Victoria of the fact. It was q
warm night in June. The princess was
sleeping in her mothers room, her Gus
tom from childhood, and had to be sum-
moned out Of her sleep. The messen-
gers awaited her in the long, unlofty
room, separated only by folding doors
from that which was inhabited by the
Duchess of Kent and her daughter. The
young girl entered alone, in her night
dress. with some loose wrap thrown
hastily about her. The moment she was
addressed as Your majesty she put
out her hand, intimating that the lords
who addressed her were to kiss it and
thereby do homage. Her schooling ana
her instincts were admirable from the
first. Self possession combined with
perfect modesty came naturally to her.
A few hours later, at II o'clock in
the morning, the child queen met her
council. In the corridor at Windsor
there is picture which commentaries
the event. Never, it has been said by
an eyewitness, was anything like the
first impression she produced or the
chorus Of praise and admiration which
was raised about her manner and be-
havior, certainly not without justice.
Her extreme youth and inexperience
and the ignorance of the world concern
ing her--for she had lived in complete
seclusion-excited interest and curios-
ity.
Asked whether she would enter the
room accompanied by the great officers
of state, she said she would come in
alone. Accordingly when all the lords
of the privy council we're assem- bled the
folding doors were thrown open, and
the queen entered, quite plainly dressed
and in mourning, and took her seat for
the first time, young girl among a
crowd of men, including al the most
famous and powerful of her subjects.
She bowed and read her speech, handed
to her by the prime minister. Lord Mel
bourne, in a clear and firm voice and
then took the oath for the security of
the Church OF Scotland.
Immediately the privy councillors
were sworn, the royal Dukes of Cum
berland and Sussex first by themselves.
1t was observed that as these two old
men, her uncles, knelt before her, swear
ing allegiance, she blushed up to the
eyes, as if she felt the contrast between
their civil and natural relations. Her
manner was very graceful and engag-
ing, and she kissed them both, and ris-
ing from her chair moved toward the
Duke of Sussex, who was too infirm to
reach her.-Fortnightly Review.
