Not long since a lady was passing

engaged in the most earnest converse
ton, arguing and insisting, and had

proclaimed himself ruler OF Jne isianu
of Trinidad. His agents in the United
States began to rally recruits around
the royal standard. Currency and post
age stamps were printed, laws were
made and a navy was secured in the
shape of axolling and bowling old bark,
which, when not employed in the de-
Tense of Trinidad's solitary port, carried
the mails over to Brazil.
1t was halcyon sort of an existence.
The royal subjects did not have much
to do except fish. No ships but those
in distress ever stopped there. Those
that stopped were more distressed than
ever over the circumstance. King
Hickey was and is Buddhist, and he
tried to pattern the kingdom on the
principles of the gentle Guatama. He
instituted the ''Order de Chevaliere"
for his subjects, and ordered supply
of gay golden crosses, with which to
recompense letters, arts, science and
industries.
There were not many letters to recon-
pense They came about once every
two months from the mainland. As for
arts, there was very little to be OBJ
served, except the art of digging bait
and prospecting for turtles eggs.
Science was at like discount, and as
for industry, it was away below par.
But the kingdom waxed happy for all
that, and almost every body wore cross,
even if he had nothing else to wear.
The kingdom of Hickey fourished
like a green bay tree, until, if rumor is
true, the blighting hand of England
was laid upon it.
The next news from the little king
dom of Hickey will be awaited with
anxious interest by many people in
New York, and the work of procuring
subjects for the self-made king which
has been going on in this city will be
stopped until some definite information
is received.
Aside from his monarchial undertake
ing, Baron Harden-Hickey is a most in
teresting person. He is descendant
of one of the families that fed with the
Stuarts to France. He is something of
a rover. During his life he has been
poet, novelist, journalist, duelist, SOL
der and sailor He has felt the pangs
of poverty, though at present he is very
wealthy. He was educated in the col
lege of Jesuits at Namur, Belgium, and
afterward at Leipsic. He entered the
military school at st. Cyr, where he re-
NAMED for some time. He afterward
devoted himself to writing and pub
lished many novels and poems.
Three years ago, while in New York,
he met and married Miss Annie Flagler.
1t is probable that England, if she
has really taken the island, bases her
claim on a previous colonization which
occurred over hundred years ago.

Rise and Fall of the King
dom Of Hickey.

There are well-defined rumors float
ing around in diplomatic and other cir
cles that the homemade island king
dom of Baron Harden-Hickey, away
down in the South Atlantic ocean, has
been gobbled up by England, says the
New York Herald.
The rumor does not state whether or
not battle was fought, and nothing
whatever has been heard of King
Hickey's standing army, whose name
is said to have been Jones. 1t is posi-
BILE that the standing army took to its
heels in the face of the tremendous
naval demonstration which England
always makes when she confiscates lit
tie kingdoms. At any rate, the story
is that the kingdom of Hickey is no
more, and that the royal cross of st.
George floats over the island.
By all the laws of nations the king
dom Of Hickey should still belong to
Hickey. He saw it first. He planted
his flag there year ago and proclaimed
himself monarch of all in sight, wheth-
er surveyed or unsurveyed.

Here is the history of the kingdom Of
Hickey. You can read it and form your
own opinion:
In the first place, Baron James A
Harden-Hickey is a son-in-law of the
Standard Oil millionaire, John II. Flag
Ter. He was born in California forty
one years ago, has been Partisan ed
itor, was exiled from France on account
of a rather badly drawn cartoon, anc
came to the United States.
1t was on one of his many voyage
that the baron discovered his future
kingdom. Take a map of the wore
