One woman. Power.

AS a matter of fact English sover-
eigns have rarely taken any active part
In politics since George Ills time but
they still could do some very astonish-
ing things IL they chose. The queen
could dismiss every Tommy Atkins in
the army, from the commander-in-chief
to the youngest drummer boy. She
could dishand the navy In the same
way and sell all the ships, stores and
arsenals TO the first customer that came
along. Acting entirely on her
own responsibility, she could declare
war against any foreign country or
make present to any foreign power
of any part of the empire. She could
make every man, woman and child in
England. Scotland and Ireland peer
of the realm, with the right, in the case
of the males who are Of age, to seat
in the house of lords. With a single
word she could dismiss any govern
ment that happened to be In power and
could, 1t is believed, pardon and liber-
ate all the criminals In our jails.
These are few of the things the queen
could do If she liked; but 1t is not nee
essary to say that her majesty never
acts in matters Of state except on the
advice of the government for the time
being.--New York Recorder.
Blackfoot news. (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1891-1902, 1896-01-25

The queens annual trip 20 Scotland
costs her $4,000. The following are
few Of the precautions she orders for
her safety and comfort in travelling:
The Official whose sole duty consists In
managing the queens journeys makes
the announcement to the manager Of
The railroad over which the queen In
tends 10 travel, and with the manager
lies the responsibility for tho queens
safe transportation. To this end all
traff,c Is suspended and the lines kept
clear: TO every station-master along the
line a notice is sent, the receipt OF
which must be acknowledged by the
next train back, and also In the uaiiy
returnn, and woe betide the tndividuai
Who fails to do this. In addition to
these precautions. plate-layers are sta-
toned the whole distance along the line
A. s,sht OF each other. and they signal
nv hand. SO that railroad accidents are
practically impossible. Heads OF sta
,,ona must be in attendance as the
,ovai train passes, and locomotive IN
spector accompanies the engine.driyer.
A apeed OF forty-five miles an hour Is
maintained. During the queens recent
,,,rnay 10 Scotland she stopped AT
p.rth for breakfast and an hours rest.
The station platform was enlarged, car
neted and hung with crimson cloth;

lighting a Candle when Anything IL
put Up for Sale.
The French mode of conducting auc-
tons is rather curious. In sales of i'm
portance the affair is placed in the
hands OF notary. who, for the time be-
ing, becomes an autioneer. The auc-
tioneer is provided with small number
of wax tapers, each capable of burning
about Ave minutes. AS soon as a bid Is
made one of these tapers is placed In
full view of the interested parties, and
lighted. II, before It expires. another
bid is offered, It is Immediately extin-
guished. and fresh taper placed in its
stead, and SO on until one fiickers and
dies out itself. when the last bid be-
comes irrevocable. This simple plan
preyents all contention among rival bid
ders and affords reasonable time for
reflection before making higher offer
than the one preceding. BY this means,
too, the auctioneer is prevented from ex-
eroising undue influence upon the bid
ders. or hastily accepting the bid of a
favorite.

The Rev. J. Henry Wiggin. formerly

society established in New York in

name be dropped from the membership
Of the New York society"
Mr.. wiggin discredits the claim to
a venerable Oriental origin which is
advanced by the American adherents
of the faith. He characterizes Nine.

North Huron, N. Y.--(Special.) o. n.
Sum Of this city had nearly become a
physical wreck through excessive use
of tobacco, and his brother -in-law, SON.
in-law and father-iI-law were also in
Ill health from the same cause. The
four men all began taking No-To-Bac
at the same time. and though repI e.
senting great differences of age and In
trinity, they have not only been elsiicly
cured Of the tobacco habit, but are now
in the best possible physical condition
The quartette are proud of the result
and recommend Eo-To-Bac with the
greatest enthusiasm. Hundreds of to.
bacco users are following the example Of
the Sum family.
