IN vICTORIA'S CAR.


while wild flowers and ferns and plants
hang loosely from the inches in the
walls which once re-echoed the excited
cries Of the brutal crowds who assem-
bled within them.
Another. interesting monument of
sixteenth century architecture stands a
few hundred yards away. This is the
Franciscan monastery and church,
perched picturesquely upon an eyrielike
crag overlooking the broad valley OF
the Paillon. The frontage gains addi-
tional solemnity and charm from the
shadow Of the splendid grove of lex
trees-perhaps the most magnificent
specimens extant-in which II reposes.
On the portico is a fresco, Illustrating
the dream Of Pope Innocent I'LL, as he
beheld st. Francis supporting the fall
ing columns of the Lateran church, and
which resulted in the request for the
foundation of the Franciscan Order be-
ing granted.
The queens chosen residence stands
upon the colline which constitutes the
first range Of the triple ridged shield of
mountains which shelters Nice from the
cold north winds. Far behind stretch
the snowclad peaks of the Maritime
Alps, with Mont Gros and Mont Cbauve
standing out In bold relief and strongly
equipped with modern artillery for the
protection of the port against invasion
from the sea. Then a second range of
hills, with upland hamlets perched here
and there upon their prominent points,
their olive-clad sides interlaced by a
maze Of milk-white roads, and net
work Of mule paths winding their way
through shaded valleys of flowers re-
lieved here with fairy grotto and there
with sparkling spring. Then the gen.
tie slopes Of Cimiez, st. Maurice and
Brancolar, covered with orchards of
oranges and lemons. and decked with
wide spreading palms and semi-tropical
plants, with coQuettish villas nesting
in their midst-in noiseless hooks
where the wild mistral and the ice cold
winds of the north never dare to come
to shake down the leaves or to shrivel
up the flowers. Here the sun reigns
supreme In perpetual glory.
Tie building occupied by the queen
was originally erected by Mr.. Coleman,
who owns villa close by. Some yesrs
ago 1t was turned into Vitali's private
hotel, which Mr.. Port, the present pro-
prietor. enlarged TO its existing propor-
tions of sixty-eight bedrooms. The
Grand hotel stands near the main road,
already described as running through
the ruins of the Roman arena. but 1t
lies hidden from the highway, and Is
just far enough away from noisy Nice
to insure to the queen that privacy
which must be sine qua non OF an7
residence taken for her abroad. Tas
attention of her majesty was drawn to
the Grand Hotel de Cimiez by Miss Min
ME Cochrane. one of her maids Of honor,
who spent some time there two years

NO. 40.

In 1894 the queen paid visit to Flor
ence, for which she is said to have
great affection, because of the princt
consort's love for the city on the Arno
While at Florence her majesty was Wis
tied by the king and queen of Italy.
Last year, as this, Cimiex was Sc.
lected by her majesty for her spring Wis
1t to the continent. The charms of this
romantic suburb Of Nice have been
sung for century or more. ever since
Smollett discovered what was then a
poor, miserable little fishing town OF a
few narrow, tortuous streets runnig up
the side of the Chateau Hill, with plenty
OF dirt and unsavory smells about the
houses, and plethora of sunshine out
of doors.
Mounting the white, winding road
which runs up the gentle wooded slope
behind the town, you come to Cimiez.
The residence, the Grand hotel, stands
400 feet or more above the glittering
waters Of the Mediterranean and amid
surroundings of the profoundest Ais-
toric interest. Long before the
Phoceans founded Nice on the seashore
Cemenelum was standing boldly on the
height above as Ligurian oppidum.
Witnesses are abundant in the shape Of
big blocks Of the ancient belt, still lying
around.
The most important of the remains
OF the Roman occupation is the amphi-
theatre, which stands in bold, pictur-
esque massiveness within few yards of
the queens hotel. Its solemnity and
grandeur are, however, spoiled by
an act of profanity which was voluntar-
lily committed when the high road was
driven straight through the center of 1t.
The rows Of seats, once capable of hold
ing 5000 spectators, still stand in
among the ruins; but the arena, into
which poor slaves were once turned to
fight for their life's blood with wild
beasts, is now growing thick with grass.

Fad FurnIshinr Buiiness.

Not the least benefit of new scientific
theories and discoveries is that they
furnish occupation for people who have
sothing to do but to take up the fad OF
the hour. They can experiment on
things, or make excavations, or col
lect something's, and, if they make no
valuable discoveries, they have at
least been out of the way Of busy peo-
pie who have work to do. In this re-
spect the Roentgen ray is said to be of
untold use. Everybody who has moth
ing else to do is engaged in the alb
sorbing and harmless pursuit of pho
tographing his bones, or a penny in q
pocketbook, or something of the kind.
One OF the most ardent students of the
y ray is Queen Amelie, Of Portugal,
who has taken the subject up with en-
thusiasm. Queen Amelie is addicted
10 lads, and, as her last mania was the
study OF medicine which she practiced
at the risk of their lives upon the
court, her fad for experimenting with
the Roentgen ray is regarded with
great delight by her loyal subjects. 1t
Is even said that it is gratitude for
having diverted his royal spouse from
the amateur practice of medicine that
has induced King Carlos to invite
Roentgen to the court at Lisbon, where
he is to receive a high decoration for
his discoveries.
