 The Princess Louise of Wales real ly fell in love with tho Duke of Fife, or. rather, tho earl. as he was then, when she was a little girl She was not pretty child. and her birth had been a disappointment to her par ents. who had wished for an heir to the English throne. The earl. who was her senior by some l5 years, was a good nAtured young fellow. and. feeling sorry for the little girl, used to show her great deal of amiable attention, smuggling bonbons into tho nursery and beg ging her on from her lessons when there was something pleAsanter on the tapis. In return the little prin- cesSs lavished her childish affection upon him and used Co make him presents of impossible pieces of fancy work done by her own fin gers.
 As they'grew older Nshe continued to adore him and totmakc penwip- CTS and pinoushiOns for his birth. day. but which diffitAsncs prevented her from presenting'wh tho time came.

 ed It to Their Lawyer.
 When western lawyer of distino-
 tion was once visiting a strangO
 town, he volunteered tO defend two
 men charged with stealing boat.
 The men were found in possession
 of the boat and were suspected of
 being prisoners reoontly discharged
 from a neighboring penitentiary.
 They were frank enough with
 their counsel to own that they were
 discharged prisoners, and they said
 that they had taken the boat merely
 10 aid them in their journey They
 professed tO havo no money, and
 the only things found upon their
 persons were ohild's picture boar ing an afectiOnate inscription. lit tle arrangement of hooks and wire apparently for hanging up the pic ture, and a Bible inscribed From Mother to Harry" One of the pris- oners was willing to go upon tho stand and swear that they were not discharged prisoners, but the other declared that he was 6 Catholic and as such had conscientious scruples against perjury. So neither was put upon the witness stand. The defense was mainly an appeal to the jury in the name of the Bible found upon one of the prisoners and so effective was the lawyers plea that many os the jurors wept as he pictured these virtuous and pennileSs young men tempted to borrow the boat in order that they might reach home and kindred The result was the prompt acquittal of the prisoners
 Soon after the verdict was given the lawyer had a private conference with his clients, and on their oOn- fessing that they had S30 between them he asked for S25 for his ser vices They admitted the obligation, but begged time for payment They owned that they were burglars and earnestly begged for the return of the property taken from them. The lawyer had it in his possession, and he begged his clients to tell him it's special value They promptly show cd him that the queer little device seemingly for hanging up the pic ture was really a set of skeleton 1 keys As to the Bible-why, Bible l was an excellent thing to havo on hand in case of arrest, and this par ticular Bible was valuable for other purposes, as one of the lids contain cd a secret receptacle for a set of delicate burglars tools
 The lawyer ended by accepting the promise of his burglar friends as to sending him his fec whom they could spare the money, but he in- sisted upon keeping the Bible and the skeleton keys, though they pleaded hard, especially for the for ner. He had returned home and almost forgotten the burglars, when ]ne day he received a letter inclos- ng the amount of his fee and say ng that this was part of the first money that his late clients had earn d. This last word was significantly When some months liter the lawyer and his family were away from home, he re- ,eived letter saying that his house lad been entered by burglars and ransacked for valuables The lawyer returned to find that the ,Ouse indeed had been turned tOpsy urvy, but none of the valuables vas gone One thing, however, was missing. the Bible of his burglar lients, and he recognized in the their handiwork. - New Tork Sun.

prove whether or not am right in my
conclusions
Now, If these material streams are inn
pinging themselves against substances
toward which they are directed 70 Is nat
ural that some effect should follow the
contact. II Is not unreasonable to say
that organs and tissues NAV be affected.
We often read in reports m De by exper-
imentalists that human hair has fallen
out from the effect Of frequent use of the
ray and / have myself noted that effect
in my experiments.
II have also noticed that. when working
with highly strained bulbs. 1 frequently
experience a sudden, and sometimes even
painful. shock in the eye. Such shocks
may occur so often that the eye gels in
famed, and one canot be considered over
cautious If he abstains from watching the
bulb too closely. These shocks are 10 me
further evidence of larger particles being
thrown Off from the bulb.
IF these conclusions, which seem TO be
forced on me by the experience coming
from experiment are correct. then Il may
be that the rays have an effect on bacilli.
Indeed, Prof. Roentgen himself has an
nounced IT as his firm belief that bacill
can be destroyed by the rays. and his ex-
periments warrant his conclusions. Yet
We must walt patiently to hear from those
who are investigating in this direction be-
fore formulating scientific conclusions.
The theory of material particles, con-
tinued Mr.. Tesla. "and the theory that the
rays affect the human system are borne
out by my own further experience in the
laboratory here. BY exposing the head to
a powerful radiation strange effects have
been noted. For instance, ind that there
is a tendency to sleep. and the time seems
to pass away quickly. There is a general
soothing effect, and ] have felt a sensa-
ton of warmth I'm the upper part OF my
head. An assistant experienced identically
the same sensations as myself
Should these remarkable effects be YER
flied by men with keener sense of obser-
walton, shall still moro firmly believe in
the existence of material streams pene-
trating the skull. Thusit may be possible
by these strange appliances 10 project a
suitable chemical into any part of the
bOdY."

Another most interesting member os the

that the Atlantic cable would prove a

IN the forests or the northwest piles Of
glass insulators and other reminders OF
this abandoned enterprise.

Up in Maine when the people hear any

Only Arthur Sewall could have origin

In Maine. And they are ever so much fun

talking, a manner that Is the very wit
of silence.
AS a humorist he belongs to a type
found only in Maine. He originated the
prevailing sarcasm in the state con-
corning inferior ships He was shown

THE weeks wash must be pretty big
when they need that"
His rather celebrated piece of satire
concerning the way to build a snip
arose from a symposium of ship builders
on the best method of putting a boat
together. The remark was made in Bos-
ton at a committee meeting about three
years ago.
"In order to build a ship" said Mr..

When the ship carpenters in New Eng

father of their trade in this country, he

There were loud laughs and cries of

against the Atlantic ocean. They won't

Mr.. Sewal resembles Abraham Lincoln

A DRUMMER's JOKE.
Why Farmer jackson Chased His
own Horse Into the Road.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer.

from the Cineinnatl Enquirer.
LaVreneeburg, Ind, July ia farmer
named Jackson residing eight miles north
of here, came TO town yesterday to see
Deputy Prosecutor Miller and lodge pc
culiar complaint.
Jackson is tho owner Of a valuable
white horse that he permits to pasture in
field near the public road. Friday even
ing jolly drummer driving to Lawrence
burg in buggy, met a couple OF painters
returning to town in an old spring wagon,
with several buckets Of black tar paint,
left from a job OF roof painting they had
just finished. The parties met opposite
the field where the white mare was quietly
grazing beneath the shade of big tree
near the roadside. Thinking the drummer
was some well-to-do farmer the painters
asked him If he had any work IN their
line.
The jolly drummer. noticing The white
horse, began to laugh and answered: yea
/ can give you a Job My wife is always
wanting me to sell this white horse ana
buy her a black one. Now, / will give you
men a couple of dollars II you will paint
the animal black, and then / can play a
great joke on my wife by telling her /
have got her horse of the color she so
much desires, and won't she be surprised
when II becomes perfectly white again.
And the drummer laughed louder than be-
fore.
The painters accepted the proposition.
and soon converted the milk-white steed
into a coal-black charger covering II COM
pletely with a heavy coat OF the ebony
colored paint. The pretended owner paid
the 81 and drove away, laughing lmmod-
erately at the trick. The unsuspecting
painters left, and a few hours later the
farmer visited the field to get his horse
but was greatly amazed to find what he
supposed was another animal In the pas
ture in its stead. Believing the shiny
black beast belonged to one of his neigh
bors he let down the fence and drove the
animal out into the public highway, and
with a club sent II cantering away Then
he resumed a search for his white horse,
but in vain. After a night of worry.
caused by the impression that his horse
had been stolen, he offered a reward for
the return OF the animal John Albin
found a strange horse wandering about
his premises yesterday, and put II in
pound. After examining the animal for
descriptive marke to mention in the adj
Vertisement for an owner, he discovered
that the horse was naturally white but
had been made artihcially black by paint
and brush. This discovery led to the fur
Their fact that the brute belonged to his
neighbor, Jackson, and was the missing
animal for which he had offered a reward
When the annoyed owner learned OF the
matter, and heard the story of how two
unsuspecting painters had been paid by
stranger to paint his white horse black
for the purpose Of playing a Joke, he be-
came furious, and determined to punish
somebody, but he can't find the drummer
and probably will never know who played
the trick.
