Startled Queen Marguerite.

A strange incident occurred during the re-
cent festivities al Rome in commcmoration
of its capture by Gen. Cadorna twenty-five
years ago, and which has found no mention
in the newspapers, yet which considerably
alarmed the Queen. 1t seems that while
driving back TO the Quirinai palace after
the inauguration of the Cavour monument
the carriage in which King Hunbert and
Queen Marguerite were seated was suddenly
stopped by an infantry captain. who rushed
toward the Queen with both hands in the
air
As the King, fearing an attack upon his
consort, arose to place himself before her,
the man exclaimed: "Mercy. your ajcsty.
mercyi You who are the first woman of
Italy. For the love of God, abolish yiyi-
section, which is the curse of the country.
Have mercy upon the miserable heasts,"
The King made some angry exclamation
about the respect due by the officer to the
uniform he wore and permitted him to be
led away under arrest by the cuirassiers es-
corting the carriage.
Subsequent investigation showed the man
to be Marquis di Chiara, subject to fits of
temporary insanity since a sunstroke re-
ceiyed in Africa. The Queen, remember
ing the attempt to assassnate her hus-
band at Naples, when her dress was
prime minister. was so alarmed by what
she feared was going to he a repetition OF
the event that she was unable to take any
further part in the festivities, either on
that day or the one following.

JACK HIGGINS

ALICE NEAL.

Jack turned red, then white, as he looked
at the names. and then glanced at me.
do you suppose she lives there now?"
he asked.
I'm sure 1 don't know replied; ''bue
let's ask some one
Several persons passed, but all seemed in
a hurry, so we went into a store across the
street and inquired Yes, Tom Neal and
his sister lived there Did we know them?
Indeed! No, his sister was not married;
some fellow off in America Tilted her, So
they said.
We'll, Jack" said l. after we came out
I'm not a matchmaker, but if, as you
say. you've always had a warm affection
for Alice. why don't you begin again?
1t isn't too late
Jack blushed to the roots of his hair and
said he should never go there after having
been shown the door.
Jack and l lived together at the same
hotel. and daily spoke to him of going TO
cali us a friend. At last, the day before
he was to return to New Orleans, got him
down near Meals home. We passed it six
or eight times, and began to feel foolish
at promenading up and down the street.
Once we stopped in front of the gate and
he put forth his hand to open it, but drew
back like young sohoolboy. Then told
him that had had enough of such fooliug
and that when we approa ched again we
would have to go in. We came up, Iopened
the gate and pushed him forward up the
steps.
Heavens, governor " he gasped, '.ring

Tom Neal came to the door and greeted US
warmly.

We began to chat of old times a nd shortly
Alice came down stairs. She was the same
girl we had known, only matured. 1 felt
sure that she had seen US before we entered,
for she was dressed in her loveliest. She
met Jack not quite like sweetheart, but
very tepderly.
1t did me good to tell them of Jacks diff
deDce and what a hard time had to get him
to come. They were little displeased that
he did not come before, and when we said
something gaboutsailing, g,Aliceexclaimed:
ssailIng! What! Are you going back?"
Yes" returned Jack, demurely, II start

Alice hummed to herself a moment. then
going to him and taking his hands In her

"Well, 1 don't purpose that you shall go

INCOME TAX AGAIN.

Representative Hall, OF Missouri, Has In
troduced Bill to Amend the Cons titu.
tiOn.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9-Representa.
tive L. S. Hall, of Missouri, who was
one of the most active advocates of the
income tax feature of the Wilson tariff
bill, is determined not to abandon the
fight for an income tax law. AS re.
suit of a careful inquiry into the SUBJ
ject, an amendment to the constitution
has been prepared and introduced by
Mr.. Hall. II is to be known as the
Sixteenth amendment, and is as fol.
lows:
All taxes, as well as duties, imposts and ex-
cseS, shall be uniform throughout the United
States; provided. that all capitation tax shall,
and any other tax may, be apportioned among
the several states according to their respective
numbers counting the whole number Of per-
sons in each state, excluding Indians not taxed.
Such an amendment would remove
from clause 2, of section ?, and clause
T. Of section 0, of article /, of the con-
stitution, the inhibition against the
imposition of direct taxes" unless
levied according to the population in
the respective states, the supreme
court having held that income tax was
a direct tax.

New YORK, Dec 7.-R. G. Dun & Co. s

excessive indulgence of appetite for

In nearly every branch stocks, not yet

a producing force, largely exceeding
the present demand, puts down prices,

for larger demand. For the present
the springs Of new business are run

orders to keep most Of the works en-

SEED GRATuiTlES.
Secretary Morton Explains why FREQ Seed
We're Abolished.

Secretary Morton Explains why Free Seed
We're Abolished.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-Actinp under
an opinion rendered last summer by
Attorney.General Olney, Secretary OF
Agriculture Morton has practically
done away with the time-honored sys.
tenn of seed gratuities to the public
through members of congress. He re.
jected all bids made for furnishing
seeds to the public and in October last
practically abolished the seed division
OF the department. Since then mem.
bers of both houses have been plan.
ming to take action to compel him to
carry out the law according to their
Interpretation of it, which was made
plain in the course of long debate by
the house.
In anticipation of a congressional
request for an explanation which was
initiated by Mr.. Baker, of New Hamp.
shire, the secretary of agriculture had
printed circular explaining his course,
which is being distributed to mem bers
The circular quotes the attorney-gen.
erals opinion that the law contem.
plates the use Of seeds rare and not
common to this country, and also the
secretary's order closing the seed di.
vision.
1t is not yet apparent what action, if
any, will be taken by congress to have
its intentions in making the appropria.
ton carried out, or whether any action
is taken. MIR. Picker. of South Da.
kota, is one Of the mem bers who thinks
that the failure to distribute seeds has
injured his constituents, and he called
on Secretary Morton to discuss the
matter, but did not receive any as
surances which gave him hope
that his quota of seeds would be
forthcoming. He speaks very strongly
of the secretary's course, saying that
the intent of the law was explicitly
stated in the debate which preceded
its passage, and that the failure of the
executive branch of the government
to carry it out is plainly illegal.
Mr.. Pickler and the other members
holding the same views are somewhat
at loss, however, to provide any
method Of coercion by which they can
compel the department to furnish
seeds. They say that the next appro-
priation bill will contain a seed clause
so ironclad that there will be no pos
sible loopholes by which their allot-
ments can escape them. but they great
ly fear that this years seeds are not
to be secured.
Secretary Morton has been very plain
in his statements to members He
says he believes that the seed distribu-
ton is an unconstitutional form of pa
ternalism and does not intend to be in
strumental in it if he can help him
