PRINCE FERDIvAND's DILEMMA.
A lettering Throne ana Not a
Friendly Power to Sustain 1t.

iotterinS Throne and Not a
Friendly Power to Sustain 1t.
Our readers do not need to be told
that we have never entertained any
exalted regard for ''the Cobuger." We
confess, however, to have thought he
had more worldly wisdom, if not good
feeling, than he has seemed to show
himself possessed of during the last
few days.
Prince Ferdinand is still at Carlsbad
drinking the waters which he refused
to the ailing and prosecuted Maker
of Bulgaria
1t is difficult enough to imagine what
his higness means by such conduct. Is
it callous insensibility to the tragedy
which has been enacted before his
eyes, and for which he is morally
responsible, or simply that incom-
petence to understand what the situa-
ton demands which seems to dog the
path of Bourbon princes? Surely it is
not cowardice? On can hardly imagine
crown accepting the throne of Bull
garia. But why is the prince not at
least going to Stambuloff's funeral? If
his absence does not point to a lack
of moral if not physical courage. it is
not easy to say what does.
Perhaps his head is turned by the
reception of the Bulgarian deputa-
ton at Peterhof. A pretty scene that
is, as the semi-oficial Vienna Press
says, NStambuloff murdered, and the
Metropolitan Clement posing as the
representative of Bulgarian
Does Prince Ferdinand really think
that recent events have given him a
stronger hold on the car and Prince
Lobanoff, and that they mean TO re
cognize" him? All the signs go to
show that he is likely to lose his
throne first. A few years since Lord
Salisbury declared that Gin the char

securities that the eastern question

drawing-room twice a day. In the
evening he wears silk slips of differ
ent colors covered with lace, and shoes
to match. 1t is quite a source of
amusement TO the jewellers in York
house, where its parents live, that the
baby is far more affable to its father
than mother. Indeed, the little fell
low already shows likes and dislikes.
When Mrs. Gladstone recently called
he assaulted her with infantile vio-
lence, and notwithstanding all the
coaxing entreaties of his nurse, dealt
out blows with his tiny fists. Mrs
Gladstone laughed heartily, and tells
the story as capital one to her
friends. Baby, by the way, is still ac-
companied on his walks by a police
man.

said:
"All summer long my studio has
been beseiged by an army of girls who
were evidently infatuated by the life
supposed to exist in studios and so
pleasantly described in Trilby. They
all want to be Tribes and said they
sought work as models. But What I'M
der heaven do l want with a lot of
giggling girls, languishing women, who
were old enough to know better, and
most of them with faces which it
would be agony to paint?
Sometimes as many as a dozen
would call in a single day and always
when the light was just right for my
work. 1t took little time to dispose
of each one and many valuable mo-
ments were wasted [ marveled at
first at the great number of models
out of work and for a time attributed
it to the hard times. Then 1 remem-
bered that all OF the boys were busy,
so hard times had nothing to do with

about the plague and l found that they
were all suffering from it. The next
time [ had one of the pests call on

NEW YORK, Aug. SO.-The artists of
the metropolis are suffering from a
strange plague. It's all on account of
the poor, wornout, bedraggled Trilby,
too. BY this time nearly all the rest
of humanity has recovered from the
storm of Trilbyism, and, having passed
through the fire, can laugh with glee
at the writings of the knights of the
brush who are mainly responsible for
the perdition of the little girl.

Queen Victoria has taken a great
fancy to Nine. Calve, the famous sing

days at Osborne house during the

about the most difficult pose any
model ever attempted and carried
through successfully was that of the
girl who posed for Diana on the top of
Madison Square garden. To stand on
one foot and hold the hands in the
position of an archer is something aw-
full. OF course the Diana model was
aided by many little device-like strings
suspended from the ceiling for holding
the hands and arms in position. Nei-

more than are skilled physicians or eX-
merit electricians. They must all study
and work and earn success.

O'Brien claims that one Of the first
requisites of the successful detective is
q retentiVe memory. The man who can
pick out some popularity in the APP
pearance of another and store q pic
ture of il away in his brain shop is a
valuable officer to have on the force.
An incident in the career of O'Brien
shows the utility of this quality.
Here, it might be said. that O'Brien in
the old days, when Byrnes was his
chief, did not sit around waiting for
assignments from his superior. sHe was
always touring about the city looking
for anything in his line of business
and the fact that he had carefully cul-
tivated his memory for faces enabled
him to make numerous arrests, which
a less studioUs officer would have
passed over.

the Mayor declared the old board ad-

to make few remarks. He said he
hoped the new board would be able to
complete what the old board had left un-
done. One matter that needed attention
was that OF proper milk inspector. A
garbage cr2matory was needed, and the
law against driving open garbage wagons
through the streets should be enforced.
The city was sadly in need of pest
