The modern ten and fifteen-cent

own fields and not to be interfering as
yet, in spite of their enormous sales,
with the prosperity of the older and
more costly ones.

LEGATION.
-Tennyson would not talk about his
poetry, but once intimated that he re-
garded the lode on the Death Of the
Duke OF Wellington" as containing
more inspiration than some of the 9TH
ers. He once said that he did not ex-
pect much of the Charge of the Light
Brigade" and was agreeably surprised
at its reception.
Don Marcantonio Colonna, head Of
the family, who is hereditary prince
assistant to the papal sea, performed
his duties for the first time at the re-
cent celebration of the anniversary of
Pope Leo's coronation. Until his
fathers death last year, Prince Colon
ma held an Office at the court of King
Humbert; he was obliged to give up
all relations with the Italian court on
assuming his hereditary charge.
Prince Bismarck, although an old
man and a man of the world, has not
quite lost his naivete. These is some
thing refreshing about his statement:
During my diplomatic career tried
to stick to the truth. Now and then
was obliged to deviate trifle from it,
| and that was very painful to the old
