The prince of Wa les is said to have
an extraordinary and accurate kuowl-
edge of the signs. colors and membership
Of all orders of merit. 1t is a matter in
which he permits no trihing, too. At a
recent state ball, a beautiful young
girl wore a glittering jeweled decora-
ton ON her breast. She danced oppo-
site the prince. When the quadrilIe
was over, he said, gently: That is d
pretty ornament. May | ask tt whom
it belongs?' To Lord Blank" said
the frightened girl; he is my fiance.
He allows me to wear it," Can YOU
unfasten it easily?" Yes, your high
ness Then may l ask you to take it
Off, and to tell Lord Blank that it
means something more than a bit of
gold and a few diamonds TO be worn
merely as an ornament, even by a
charming woman?"

The stock collar has . rival. 1t is
made of silk or satin and Veiled with
mouSseline de sole, which is shaped
like a turned down collar and trimmed
with two narrow frills OF yellow Valen-
ciennes lace. The collar is much more
dainty than the stock and is a charm
ing and becoming finish to any bodice.
Another new idea is the satin collar,
trimmed with rows of Nalenciennes
lace. Black or mauve satin collars
with yellow lace arranged to form two
points in front, are both new and
pretty. To be worn with gingham, or,
in fact, any of the cotton dresses, there
are deep collars of null trimmed with
embroidery They are made To form
yoke and epaulets, and are convenient
because they launder easily and so
freshen mp gown. Some of these
broad collars are edged with two
rows of braiding, through which mar
row ribbons are run. The effect is
pretty when the ribbons contrast well
with the color of the gown.-Chicago

taken from ancient history. An Eng

News, saying that while in Germany he
wished to have his son baptized Fran
els, but was prevented by the authorl-
ties from doing 50 on the above named
grounds He explained that Francis is
short for Franciskus, which Is in the
German calendar, and that Sir Francis

But no attention was paid to this plea.

TIE COLONEL AND THE SNAKE.
Shocking Outcome OF the Professors EK-
pertinent in Natural History


\ well-known professor of natural
history and an amateur taXidermist. re
siding in northern suburb of Chicago,
in the city to look at some South
American snakes procured for him by
a local dealer in foreign animals. The
reptiles. SAYS the Times Herald were
all that the professor desired. The
purchase was made, the snakes were
chloroformed and the professor placed
them in a blue cloth bag he had car
ried with him for the purpose. He then
went to the northwestern depot. took
seat in the smok'r, placed the bag be-
side him ON the seat and proceeded to
enjoy cigar and the afternoon paper.
On the same train quartette of Chica-
go business men usually meet for d
quiet rubber on their way To their sub
urban homes. They happened to have
their seats ON the other - D. of the aisle.
from the professor. ON the opposite
side facing the professor, one of the
players called the colonel had his seat.
The colonel il known for his weakness
for Kentucky juice and carried his us
ual allowance on this occasion. The
play started and 50 did the train. All
of sudden, As the colonel arranged
his cards, he happened To look over To
llc professor seat he was observed to
start, and was evidently disturbed
about something. This was repeated
several times during the journey, and
the colonel was playing in bad luck
and had To stand the joking of his fell
low players.
Three of the players had now reached
their stations and said good-by To- the
colonel, who had little further u
travel Suddenly peculiar hiss was
heard The professor started mp. looked
at his bag for a second and then with
practiced hand caught the head of a
snake protruding from bag.
The colonel had been an interested
witness of the incident, and = feeling
of relief seemed to pass over his face.
Turning To the professor he said: Sc
il il real live snakes. Good God, |
thought surely l had them; why in
thunder do you carry such beastly YER
min around with you?" The professor
explained the reason and that proba bly,
one of the snakes had not been suffi-
cicntlV chloroformed.
The colonel has had to stand a good
deal OF joking since then and has been
inviting his friends to his favorite dis
pensary.

Besides the original townsite, there

What came nearly being fatal ac-
cident happened this morning to Mr..
Fred Lemke. By mistake he swallowed
some corrosive sublimate. Mr.. Lemke
had not been feeling well for some time,
and this morning about 8 O'Clock went
to the shelf to get bottle of medicine,
according to his usual custom. The
medicine and the poison were in two
bottles standing near one another, and
by mistake Mr.. Lemke took the wrong
one. Without examining the label, he
took out the cork and drank about a
tablespoonful. The instant pain was
excrutiating. Mrs. Lemke hastened
to the telephone and summoned DIR.
Hollister, who administered antidotes.
II was some time before the poi
soned man could regain his speech.
He had taken about seven grains, when
| one-twentieth of grain is considered a
fair amount. This afternoon Mr.. Lemke
is considered out of danger, though still
suffering severe pain. 1t is safe to say
that after this he will closely examine
every bottle before tasting of its con-
! tents

Word From Bile. c. Nv. Rice.

Mr.. Horace Rice has just received an
interesting letter from his son, Wesley,
at Phoenix, Arizona. Wesley Rice left
The Dalles several weeks ago and went
to Arizona in hopes of bettering his
weakened health. The weather has
been extremely warm ever since his ar
rival. the thermometer ranging from
LOG to ITO degrees. Phoenix is de-
scribed as being well built place with
good business houses. The merchants
seem to be doing we'll, but the farmers
are in bad condition. Mr.. Rice took a
drive out in the country and saw that
about half the farms had ''for sale''
notices upon them. The soil is very
sandy and when wet makes the stickiest
of mud. There are great many peo.
pie in Phoenix who have come from diff
ferent portions of the country to seek
benefit for lung troubles. The extreme
hot weather has been very hard upon
them. Tropical fruits grow in profu-
sion, but the more northern varieties,
such as peaches, Strawberries and the
like. 90 not grow to the same proper
tions or attain the delicious flavor as
with us. Mr.. and Mrs. Rice 1--we about
three-quarters OF mile from the town
and pleasantly situated. AS soon as
cooler weather comes Mr.. Rice expects
to be greatly benefited, but intends re-
manning till thoroughly restored. He
gives June 1st as the time for returning
to The Dalles. His friends will be
glad to hear of encouraging reports from
him.
