BLUE LAWS IN EUROPE.

Liberal Germans Prohibited From
Whistiing In the Fatherland.
The enforcement of the Sunday closing
law in New York city has caused a great
deal of talk about ''btue laws" Infringe
ment on personal liberty" sc. In reality
the slight Inconvenience to a portion of
that city's population amounts to nothing
compared to restrictions on personal lib
erty in SOME other countries Pcarsons
Weekly cnumerates number of instances
of such "bue laws" among them being
the following: No fewer than sixty-eight
persons in Berlin were recently nut ON
trial on charge of lese majeste, their Of
fence consisting of having spoken in an
uncomplimentary fashion of the Emperor's
Song of Aegir," a musical composition
about which his majesty is inordinately
sensitive.
AT Dresden young soldier, who had but
recently Joined the oolors, has been con
demned to four months close confinement
in cell for having been caught whistling
in one of the streets of the Saxon capital
Whstiing, Indeed, seems to be dangerous
diversion in Germany, for ii was not so very
long ago that the hall porter of a fashion
bic hotel in Inter den Linden, at Berlin,
was brought before a magistrate and con-
dcInned to a fire, with an alternative of
imprisonment, for having whistled to
summon a cab for guest at the hcstlery.
After all, this is only in keeping with the
strict laws which prevail in that essentially
music loving ard music making country,
Prussia. People are not allowed to play or
sing in their own apartments after ten
O'Clock, except with the express consent of
their neighbOrs. They cannot keep on their
premises any furrcd or feathered animals
addicted to nocturnal utterances of sounds
that murder sleep. In the south of Austria,
especially along the shores of the Adriatic,
tue daisy is regarded by the authorities as
the emblem of disloyalty and OF that great
revolutionary association known as the
Italia Irrcdenta," which aims at the res
speaking provinces. The reasons why
this particular flower has been adopted
by the Irredentists is because its continental
uame is synonymous with that of Italy's
still charming and popular Queen, Mar
guerite, and because this it is so abundant
that ii is within the reach of even the most
poverty stricken peasant. At the present
moment there are men and even women
undergoing imprisonment in Trieste and
elsewhere whose only offence consisted
in their having worn buttonholes and cor
sage bouquets of daisies.

MISS MARTHA CUNNINGHAM.
A Young Poetess Whose Fame Is
Taking Shape Steadily.

Martha Cunningham, the young poetess,
whose fame is so steadily taking shape, and
who has been compared, even by some ofour
severest critics, TO Browning, has accom-
plishments that are not confined to the field
of poesy She has, first, what all women
prize above all things, and that is genuine
beauty, and she speaks French, Italian and
German with fiuency. She is also harpist
of exceptional power, her execution being
something notable for woman who has
just passed her teens. She was at school
abroad for six years, in Paris, Berlin and
London, and has Travelled over Europe, be
sides spending several months in the Holy
Land. All this, for a woman who has not
yet gotten beyond her twenty-first mile
stone, is a little unusual, even in this age
of rapid development. One of Cardinal Glib
bons' last acts, before embarking on his late
foreign trip, was to write to Miss Cunning
