Turner and Dunlop Have
Been EXtradited.
Magistrate Turns Them Over
TO New York Officer.
Probability of a Very Lively Con-
test Over the Reward.

LONDON, May s.-The extradIrIon Of
William Turner and William Dunlop, the
two men arrested here ON the charge of
having stolen jcwelry valued at $50, 900,
from Mr.. i. Townsend Burden, of New
York, was granted at the Bow street
police court today by the chief magis-
trate, Sir John Bridge.
Mr.. John ID. Lindsay, assistant district
attorney of New York, sat on the beuch
beside Sir John Bridge, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Burden and Detective Sergeant Frank N.
Ivanhoe, the special agent appointed by
Governor Morton to bring Turner and
Dunlop back to the United States, were
present in court.
Counsel for Turner tried to show that
his client did not know of the robbery
and that Dunlop was really the guilty
man. The magistrate, however, over
ruled this plea and granted the extradI-
tion of the prisoners. Counsel for Dun
lop said he did not desire TO address the
court.
MIR. Burden, in conversation with a
representative of The Associated Press,
said Ii was not necessary for him to re-
main any longer in London, and so he
would leave for the continent on Monday
next. AS TO the reward offered for the re-
covery of the iewelry, concerning the right

the Scotland yard men and Streeter, tue
Bond street jeweler, TO whom some Of
the stolen jewels wereofiered. Mr.. Burden
said the matter would be settled in New
York, when he obtained possession of the
jewels.
L he detectives were asitcd why the
prisoners were able 10 leave New York
with the jewels and said that Mr.. Burden
seemed afraid TO adopt vigorous measures,
as the men had no previous criminal
record. Consequently, it was added, the
New York detectives we're unable to arrest
and search the two suspected men. Mr..
and Mrs. Burden will sail for New York
ON Saturday, May %. ------------ssss.s

BEFORE AUSTERLITZ.
Napoleon Spent the Night Observing
the Army and the Enemy

The evening and night were not ones
of repose for Napoleon nicely poised
combinations need careful watching
For time the uneasy but confident
emperor passed from watch-fire to
watch-fire, encouraging and observing
his own men. With noisy enthusiasm
they besought him not to expose his
life on the morrow, and promised to
bring him a suitable bouquet for the
anniversary of his coronation. For a
time the whole camp was Illuminated
with eXtempOriZed torches of hay But,
though excited, the troops, as we'll as
their general, were confident; they I'M
derstOod his casually uttered but care
fully considered words, which passed
from mouth to mouth: while they
are marching to surround my right.
they will offer me their flank" For a
time, also, he rode in the darkness to
rec0nnoiter the enemy's position, and
being convinced that no movement was
to be made before morning, he re
turned to his tent about three and slept
until dawn. He has been charged with
having for the first time shown coward
ice at Austerlitz. This is because in a
proclamation he promised not to risk
his life, as his men had requested, but
only in case they did their duty. and
kept his word because they kept theirs.
Bonaparte the division general, and
even Bonaparte the first consul, had led
his soldiers where danger was greatest
but Napoleon the emperor, having Won
his stake, had 70 need to take such
risks; having more to lose, he now for
the first time used the ordinary caution
OF man whose life is worth that of
many common men. 1t was only what
every great royal and imperial general
is accustomed to do.-Prof. w. M.

SWITZERLAND'S MILITIA.

If the change could be made from the
true militia of the Swiss type, a long
step towards enduring peace would be
made. In a military system of this
nature the soldier and the citizen would
be Identical when put IN the field; the
men would take with them that quality
OF the household which makes the Swiss
soldier an admirable home guard, but
not to be considered for distant aggres-
sive warfare. In such condition the
military motive in it's dangerous form
would speedily die out; all danger OF
it's leading to wars of d political nature
could be left to the ever-lncreasing de-
NelOpment of the domestic spirit, that
uumor which makes men very willing
W sacrifice for their ideals, but exceed
Ingly indisposed to die Tor purposes
which they do not value. II the armed
forces of governments should be
brought to the admirable state IN which
they are established in switzerland, the
discreet philanthropist might well be
satisfied to go no further. In the eX-
listing conditions of society, and, for all
we can forsee, IN any hlgnly organized
society whatsoever, there will always
be need of using we'll organized force
to restrain the large part OF the popula-
Ion who are willing to seek their ends
Uy violence. There is no other way to
retain the good which has been won,
or to win that which is before us, save
by the law, and the sanction of the
l..w is in strength. 1t is a sense OF
this truth which goes far to justify the
existence of the great standing armies
in the minds of many judicious persons,
who fail to see that well organized
militia can be made as effective in at
tanning the same valuable end.-Prof.
~. S. Shaler, in North American Re-
view.

ONE OF CLEOPATRA'S RACE.
A Dreamy Eyed Beauty Arrayed in
Silks, Gold and Jewels

Her eyes are the long almond eyes
possessed by all the heroines in Ara
bian Nights" and her hair is as black
and fine as any onyx that went to the
making of Solomon's temple; her lips
scarlet as pomegranite blossoms. In
her face is the mysterious, sensuous
charm of the Oriental woman-that
charm which has more depth and
meaning than the French woman's fir
tatiousness and the Spaniard's coquetry,
an attraction which does not seem to
be making an effort to attract at all,
but is simply there, and one feels it's
potency. She dresses with marvellous
effectiveness draperies of gold about
her loins, silk garments studded with
jewels and belted about her waist, with
a girdle of brass inlaid with turquoise
and coral. Draped from her shoulders
and over her graceful head are wonder
full silks from East India-fabrics so
fine that one could almost draw them
through a needles eye, yet large enough
70 fall from her bando of sequins to
her tiny feet where the bangles jingle
about her ankles.

To the qualities of the old-time
southern grand dame the terrapin girl
has added the buoyancy and policy of
a broad, cosmopolitan life AS for her
beauty. that has been immortaliZed
many times over. Any old gentleman
OF Virginia or Maryland and many
others. indeed, of other southern states,
will recall now, with a flush of pleas
ure on their wrinkled cheeks, the love-
illness of some Baltimore maid. Among
these, perhaps the most famous beau
ties OF ante-bellum days were the two
Misses Carey, Hettie and Constance,
both of them tall women of superb
proportions, with great brown eyes
that matched in color the abundant
beauty of waving auburn hair.
An exceedingly dainty Christmas
gift consists of six handkerchiefs made
of the sheerest, silkiest linen lawn.
One of the handkerchief should be
very pale blue, enc of very pale pink,
one of lavender, and The others pure
white.
The hankerchiefs should be hem
stitched by hand, and in one corner of
Zach the initials in fac-simile of the
person for whom they are intended
should be embroidered. The white
handkerchief may be edged with a mar
row frill of valenciennes lace, but the
cclored ones should have no adorn-
ment but the hemstitching and the
initials.

AMERICAN CAVIAR.
You Must Lay in a Supply for Those

So to 81 pound in Astrakhan, and
sir &c this years output is but very
small it will become very much dearer.
Although many people have tried to
explain the small quantity of this years
output with various reasons, the only
reason which the practical Russian will
admit is the surgeons do not want to
be caught. The October catch was so
poor that the Russians expect to be
out of caviar before Christmas. Europe
is, however, alive to the fact that Amer
can caviar coming from the United
States, more particularly from Cali
fornia, Washington and Delaware, is
to be had in large quantities. A pound
of this American product brings about
81 in Hamburg, and in it's present ap-
pearance and taste differs but very
little from the Russian product. The
only safe means of distinguishing the
origin of the caviar is its color, which,
in the American, has a brownish ap-
pearance, while the gray pearls of the
Russian caviar are preferred by the

AN INDIAN TALE.
Just a Little Idyl of the Wild Woods
and Music

The grandmother, whose name
meant sweet wild singer, was patient
woman, and also remarkably indus
trious and active. Although she had
already lived through fifty years of
hardship, she was still wonder to the
young maidens in the art of embroid-
ering with beads and porcupine quilts.
She showed no less enthusiasm over
Hakada than she had felt when she
held her first born, the boys father, il
her arms. Every little attention that
is due to d loved child she performed
with much concern and devotion. She
made all my little and scanty gar,
ments and my tiny moccasins with a
great deal of taste. 1t was said by all
that l could not have more attention
had my mother been living. She was
a great singer. Sometimes when Ha-
kada awakened too early in the morn
ing she would sing him something like
the following:
Sleep, sleep, my boy; the Chippewas
Are far away-are far away.
Sleep, sleep, my boy; prepare to meet
The foe by day, the foe by day!
The towards will not dare to fight
Till morning break-till morning
break.
Sleep, sleep, my child, while still It's
night;
Then bravely wake-then bravely
wake!

His passion for writing had never
been extinguished since the first rude
beginnings of childhood. Although he
never learned to spell, he did eventually
learn the secret of that concise and
masterful style which characterizes so
much of his voluminous correspondence.
The thirty enormous volumes of his
letters published by a commission under
the Second Empire, though giving most
of what he wrote before 1904, are for
the remaining years of his reign little
more than scanty selections obsequious-
ly and ingeniously. chosen to increase
his fame and hide his faults. But from
these and from the testimony Of con-
temporaries the astonishing extent and
the exact character Of his occupations
are clearly shown.-Prof. w. NJ. Sloane
