THE PIPE or PEACE.

A Mail-Carrler Has q Rather Hard Ex-
~perience With . BAD Indian.
In July, 1892, Peter Schneider, who is
now a policeman in Cincinnati, met with
an adventure which he will moi soon
forget. The Second United States cav
airy, to which he then belonged, were
in camp at the big bend of Milk river.
Schneider had been detailed mail car
rier between the camp and Fort Assini-
bone. On the way coming he met an
Indian at Clear Creek. They
exchanged the courtesies of the day,
and the redskin, with treachery in his
heart, offered the soldier the pipe OF
peace. They smoked in silence on the
roadway for a short time. The Indian
asked for a chew of tobacco. Schneider
always carried a half pound plug, and
pulled it out of his pocket. The Indian.
took his knife and cut off a small piece
from the corner, returning to Schnei-
der, not the large plug, but the small
piece which he had taken. The soldier
wouldn't have it that way, and COM
PEELED him to make the exchange. They
were still on apparently friendly
terms, however, and there was no occa-
sion for any exchange of hostilities.
Schneider asked the Indian for a nearer
trail to the fort than the one he had
been travelling, and the Indian with
whom he had smoked the pipe of peace
showed him the way. They separated,
n when Schneider had gone about
fifty yards something impelled him to
look about him. He saw the Indian in
the act Of drawing a bead on him.
Schneider protected himself by lodging
behind the horse, slung his weapon
from his shoulder and returned, the
fire of the savage. The latter fed, but
turned twice to fire.
Schneider also shot at him, and sud-
denly the Indian and his horse disap-
peared from sight as though the earth
had swallowed them. Schneider fol-
lowed, and stood Mortified at the brink
of a precipice over 200 feet in depth.
At the bottom lay the Indian and his
pony, both dead. The treacherous saw
age, in his hurried attack, had forgotten
about the cliff, and in his fight went to
destruction. Schneider took his saddle
and gun and reported the matter to his
superior officers. He has the saddle
to-day, n of the trophies of his So
journ among "the oneryest dogs OF
Gods green footstool."

This Man Never Wears Hats.

Clinton Miller, of Bradford, Pa, a
florist gardener and quite an intelligent
man, says the Buffalo Express, has a
strange hobby. He does not and will
not wear a hat. Not since a boy has
Miller worn any head-covering other
than a short, thick-growth of natural
hair.
In the summer, with the hot sun
pouring down upon his uncovered head,
Miller may be seen walking around the
town or at his work, with the utmost
serenity of manner, as if he never
minded it a little bit. In the winter
it is the same. The mercury may de-
scend clear to the bulb in the ther-
mometer, the winds may blow and the
snow may fly, but Miller never minds
it and stalks about ~bare-headed and
without an o%vercoat. The rain doesn't
feaze him, either. Nothing bothers this
man with the hobby, as far as the ele-
ments are concerned.
Miller attended the New York state
fair last year, and was an object of
great interest. 1t was very hot during
the days on which the fair was held,
and the sweltering crowds tried to keep
cool with broad-brimmed hats, para
soils, umbrellas, ETC., and Miller. with
his bare head, seemed to be the only
person IN the grounds who did not
suffer from the heat. He gives as his
reason for not wearing a hat that ma
ture provided us with a head-covering
and he says that it is foolish for a per-
son to wear a hat or any other arti-
fetal head-covering.
"You say you don't see how I can
stand it? Look at the North Ameri-
can Indian. How does he stand it. or
how did he stand it before the entrance
Of civilization, which resulted in some
of them adopting hats? See the ma
tiyes of far-off Africa and other far-off
countries, who do not wear hats. Why.
you can even see the foolishness of
wearing a big, heavy, cumbersome hat
by looking at women on the streets with
bonnets as big as a silver haIf-dime
They don't need any hat. Another
reason l do not wear a hat is that If
produces badness. II the people Of the
civilized world never wore hats there
would never be such a thing as a bald
head, unless brought on by disease. I
wouldn't wear a hat, and should be
glad to see every other man abandon
its use. 1t might be hard at first. but
they would get used to it soon, and
would be pleased with the result.

who come there on account of the pure
ness Of the air and the beauty of the
scenery.
The ancient Schloss, which was for
merly a monastery, became a private
residence in the year 1903, and in 1877
became the property Of King Maximil-
ian I. of Bavaria. The King made it his
summer residence, and generally spent
several months there every year. Now
it is the property of Duke Carl Theodor,
who has put it to a noble use, and has
made Tegernsee the center of charitable
work among the poor.
The Schloss is a large building. with
a beautiful shaded walk between it and
the lake, the church standing almost
in the courtyard behind, and with a
background of wooded hills. It is a
comfortable house, with numerous
beautiful old-fashioned rooms, which
have been rendered very homelike and
pretty by the Duchess and her daugh-
tiers.
The hospital is situated in one wing
of the Schloss, as the Duke finds it most
convenient to have his patients under
his own roof. No royal duke and Ouch

selfish lives as the Duke and Duchess
Carl Theodor of Bavaria, and if only his

very early years showed herself to be
more gifted than children ordinarily
are, and her sweetness of disposition
rendered her the favorite Of the family.
AT an early age she showed great dis
elimination of character, and had very
strong likes and dislikes, though she
did not allow the latter feeling to be
often discovered. Her great character
istic was fervent gratitude to all those
who were kind to her, and any little
kindness or sympathetic word was
thoroughly appreciated by the Princess,
even when she was quite a child, and
this charming trait she still possesses.
The first wife of Duke Carl Theodor,
the Princess Sophie of Saxony, died on
March 9, 1867, leaving him one daugh-
ter, the Princess Amalie, who married

We speak OF .sChina'' and the
"Chinese'' little thinking that tho ma
tives OF the fowery kingdom never
hear those terms until after leaving
the place of their birth, or coming in

China are not among the number.
The most ancient name of China is
Tien Hia, which signifies "beneath

is not the case with her, for she has
the sweetest and most unselfish nature,
and is always thoughtful and consid-
crate to her attendants, who are n
and all devoted to her. Her tact in deal
ing both with high and low is unfail-
Ing, and she is as great a favorite with
all the relations of her husband as with
her own family.
The Duchess has many interests in
lie, and one Of her chief hobbies is en-
glneerlng. She takes an immense inter
est IN machinery Of all descriptions,
and, what is very rare in a woman,
thoroughly understands the subject. In
appearance she is very queenly, with a
perfectly beautiful face, and lovely
eyes, full Of expression, the greatness
OF her soul showing plainly when she
speaks, but perhaps her greatest
charms are her womanliness and the
tenderness that she shows to the poor
patients when she is assisting her hus-
band IN a painful and difficult opera
ton.
She is a most tender mother to her
own children, and was an affectionate
and devoted stepmother to the Princess
Amalie, who was just nine years old
at the time of her fathers second mar
rage, and who has now two little
daughters of her own, born on June %,

having a son when the elder Prince
was born, followed four years later by
his younger brothers birth.

DUCHESS CARL THEoDoR.

DUCHESS CARL THEODOR.
the Duke of Urach on July 4, 1892. It
was not until even years after his first
wife's death that the Duke made his
second choice, a choice that has rem
dered his home life ideally happy. 1t
was on April 20, 1874, that he married
the Princess Maria Josepha of Bra
ganza, who was then only seventeen
years of age, and one Of the most beau
tiful and talented princesses in Europe.
The Duke, who is eighteen years her
senior, is the brother of the Empress Of
Austria, and the head Of the ducal
house Of Bavaria, his elder brother hav-
ing resigned his rights in order to make
a ~morganatic marriage.
No married life could be more simple
or happy than that led by the Duke and
Duchess Carl Theodor, surrounded by
their five children, three daughters and
two sons-the Princess Sophie, born in
1875; the Princess Elizabeth, 1876; the
Princess Marie, 1878; Prince Ludwig
Wilhelm, in 1884, and Prince Franz
Joseph, the godson of the Emperor OF
Austria, on March %, 1883.
The Duke and Duchess lead a very
busy, useful life, for the Duke has no
less than three eye hospitals under his
charge, which he has himself founded,
the principal and favorite of which is
at the Royal Schloss, at Tegernsee, in
Bavaria, of which We give views. The
Others are at Munich and Merau, at all
of which places he spends a part of the
year with his family. Ills Royal High

seIs- Then He Resigned Before "A Change
Could BE Made.

WAsHINGTOY. May -. - Secretary
Herbert, III Response To inquiries, has
dictated the following official statement
concerning Admiral Meade:
"At the navy department 1t Is
learned that the department had ad-
dressed a letter to Admiral Meade,
stating that it desired T. know If he
was willing to answer whether he had
or had not authorized what purported
To be an interview with him, published
in the New York Tribune and that he
had replied. acknowledging the receipt
of the letter, and declining to answer
the questions.
The facts in relation 60 the failure
Of the department to grant Admiral
Meade's request to have the Cincinnati
ordered to the New York yard instead
Of the Norfolk yard are that this vessel
was ordered to 20 to the Norfolk navy
yard for some necessary repairs rms
was done upon the recommendation OF
the chief constructor. who desired that
work which Is now scarce at bOtA
yards, might be equalZcd between the
Norfolk and Brooklyn yards. Admiral
Meade, who had selected the Cincinnati
for his flagship during the absence OF

TO hoist his flag upon that vessel upou
hosting his flag on the Minneapolis.
He afterward forwarded second
request to the departu Cut 70 have the
Cincinnati ordered to New York instead
of to Norfolk. On the day when this
later request was received, Secretary
Herbert was not IN the department at
any time Assistant Secretary McAdoO

request. as he did not think II proper to
take any action IN the matter until the

ing. when Secretary Herbert came to
the Office this matter having been
brought to his attention, he at once
summoned before him the chief con
structor. and, after couferring with him
