Welded ais SLAVE.
The Khedivs d Egypt Falls In
Love with His Favorite
Circassian.

Cairo, Feb. 19.--The Khedive sign
ed marriage contract with is favor
ite slave TO-DAY in the presence of the
Egyptian Ministers. This act consti-
tutes marriage to the slave, and
there will be no public ceremony.
About ten or twelve years ago the
Khedive's m ther purchased several
Circassian slave girls as upper SER
wants for her children later on. These
CIrcassians were then mere children
and have since been brought up in the
Palace. On the accession, one of thest
young women was attached to the APP
partments of the Khedive, in oder 10
watch over his wardrobe. The KEN
dive took great liking to her, but for
some time she did not be ONE his con-
cubine, decling to enter into that re-
Iation with him. But when the Khe-
divah, the Khedive's mother, went to
Constantinople last year, and a mar
riage with some Turkish Princess was
talked about, the Circassian held out
no longer, seeing that her only hope
of advancement was to become en-
ceinte to the Khedive, and thus, if a
sou was a result, she could claim her
marriage, and the proclamation of her
son as Crown Prince.
When the Khedivah learned of the
relations existing between tho Khe-
dive and the Circassian, she was very
angry, but upon her son asking her
forgiveness, and stated that he wished
to marry the girl, she relented and
gave him her blessing. 1t is thought
that the Khedive will marry the girl
who is three or four years older than
himself, before the birth of the child,
in order to insure its Legitimacy, as
there was some doubt as to whether
legitimacy could be affected by mar
riage after birth, the girl not being
the slave of the Khedive, but of his
mother. According TO certain of the
best authorities, the Khedive cannot
acquire the property of this slave, as
his mother has no power to sell or give
away any slave, such being contrary
20 the Egyptian slave law. The
rther members of the Khedivah fami-
Iy are furious at the situation of af-
fairs, as they fondly hoped that the
Khedive and his only brother, Mo-
manned Alv, might die chiIdless
The woman with whom the Khedive
contracted marriage to-day has been
known in the Harem as Lady Ikbul

LOST AT SEA,
Swift Destruction Awaits a Sunk.
en- Vessel at the Bottom of
Old Ocean.

In looking at the oceans, the mind
almost instinCtively turns 10 the fate
of the ships which found their resting
place upon their floors. If the reader
were appointed to inspect the bottom
of the drained sea, he would be sure
to look at once for some remnants of
his kind, overwhelmed by storm and
battle. a.
Fancy has depicted these vessel
thickly strewn over the bottom Of the
sea and at times as hung in the depths,
unable, on account of the density OF
the wafer, to find their way to the
earth. But all we know of the condi-
ton Of the deep leads us to believe
that the sunken vessel finds its way
quickly to the foundations of the sea
IN few hours at most it reaches its
everlas ing grave and is ready for The
swift destruction which awaits it's
torn.
AT the stroke of its fall it must il
part sink into the Ooze, which every
where is deep Quickly the creatures
of the sea, who by long existence in
fields where food is scanty, have
learned TO avail themselves of every
chance of subsistence, seize upon all
the organic matter which fortune has
sent to them. Even the masts and the
other woodwork will shortly be non
eyCOmbed by living species aud weigh
ed down by encrustiug forms. Thus
before long the masts will fall and the
decks will share in the ruin.
If the reader could traverse the field
whereunto came the shot-riddlrd ships
of Trafalgar, he would probably, says
writer in the Youths Companion, he
surprised at the slight effect they
would make on the landscape. Each |
wreck would most likely appear as a
low mound of debris, in which it would |
be difficult to trace the semblance of
the stout craft which waged the great
est sea. fight of all time.
Ships of European people have been
for centuries finding their way to the |
floors of the ocean. Probably over a
hundred thousand vessels have met |
this fate since the time when our race
began to find its way around the
world. Yet by far the greater part of
these have fallen upon the shadows
near the shore, where the swift cur
rents and rapidly moving debris are
likely to aid in their destruction ana
burial.
How swiftly they disappear in these
conditions may be judged by the ex-
perience of diver who has sought for
sunken treasures. Almost invariably,
after hundred years or so has pass
ed, they find that the craft is quite
lost to sight. Far more money has
been spent in such explorations than
has been won from them.
Curiously enough, the most perma.
nent records of mans empire of tn
seas are being written in the ashes
from the coal-fed fires of the steam
ships. This waste is in its nature in
iestructible, and the mass of material
in any one year to the
ocean floors is to be reckoned by the
million tons. In time all the great
ship routes will be paved with this
debris, which will be built into the
rocks, to remain as the most enduring
physical monument of mans sway
upon this sphere. ]

SEES GREAT FORTUNES
IN CHINA.
Senator Higgins Putting Hi
Friends Onto What He
Thinks Good

We hear good deal of talk IL
Washington about the great era Of
railroad building that is to appear H.
China following peace between thai,
country and japan, says Washington
dispatch to the Chicago Herald. Sen
a,or Higgins, OF Delaware, has bee'
telling Senator Brice and other friend
in the cloakroems that the next gresI
opportunity to make fortunes is to be
in China. "That country will soor
enter upon the greatest scheme of
railroad building the world has ever
,een," said Mr.. Higgins. "The lead
ing men in China, hear through pri
vate sources, have become convinced
Japan is whipping them because they
lack railroads, and because they havt
never gone in for European improve
ments as have the Japanese. III
whipping the Chinese japan has rem
dered the Chinese great service. The
Chinese hate the Japanese intensely,
and up to this time have looked down
upon their Eastern neighbors as Ali
interior race. They have poohpoohed
the efforts of the Japanese to introduce
Western methods, and In the sublimity
of their conceit have said poor Japan
may need the help of the western
devils, but China, never. IF fanny other
country had whipped China the peo-
pie of that land would not have been
reused from their conceit, but to be
numerically trouced by Japan, which
they have so despised and reviled be-
cause of its adoption of Western ideas.
has oricked the bubble of pride. The
first result of this change of sentiment
is seen in the restoration of Ii Hung
Chang to his former dignity. L pre-
dict that after the war is over that
great statesman will again become the
real ruler of China. The result of
this war is a,vindication of all his eff
forts to moderniZe China. His ideas
will prevail at last, and as soon as
China RECEIVERS herself she will enter
upon scheme of railway building on
vast scale. Think of the possibilities
Of land with 400,000,000 of people
and practically without railroad
There will be the place to pick up
franchises, to float big schemes, to
make great fortunes. Railroads will
pay in China. 1t will cost but little to
build them, and as soon as the first
prejudice of the people is worn of'tbey
will become greater travellers. In its
eagerness to introduce railway sys.
TENS the Government will grant rich
subventions. Railways will bring in
their train many other modern ideas
and devices. Mark my words, China
is going to be the richest money-mak-
ing country in the world during the
next fifteen. or twenty years, land unless
miss my guess Americans will he in
the midst of it with their contracts,
their sales of iron and steel, their de-
vices and inventions. 1t is pity we
can not open the Nicaragua canal i'm
time to make the most of this great
opportunity"
