PUNY GERMAN PRIScELrNes.

Much dismay has been caused through
out Germany by the well authenticated
reports that the children of the emperor
OF Germany, instead Of being the healthy
little fellows that everybody imagined
them 20 be, are. on the contrary, exceed
lngiy delicate and affected with the same
peculiar kind of ailment as their fathers
uncle, Leopold, Duke of Albany. the
youngest son of Queen Victoria. The lat
ter II may be remembered, was so pc
cul1arly constituted that whenever he got
the slightest scratch or wound hernorr-
hage would result and weeks, and even
months would pass before the cut or
abrasion healed. The same thing is the
case with the young German crown prince
and his brothers. The smallest injury be-
comes at once a matter OF extreme gray
1ty. Although the kick which Prince
Eltel, the second and best looking son of
the emperor, received nearly six weeks
ago from his pony was very slight, the
little fellow is still confined to his bed.
This is not astonishing when it is borne

is a most unhealthy class. while that of
Prussia is even still worse off. Emperor

POSTAL BUSINESS.

The growth of the postoffice business Of
the country has been amazing. At the
close of the revolutionary war there were
only 10 postoffices in the United States.
At the beginning of the civil war there
were 1856. and five years after it's close.
in 1870, there were 1892 or about 100
fewer, the only step backward during the
history of the postofIice department. BY
1880 the upward rise had started again in
full force and the number of Dostofffces
in the country reached AZ, 600. There are
now COCO postoffices in the United States
and the number is constantly being in
eased.-Boston Journal.

that MaceO was not betrayed to the

AT San Pedro, near Havana, the party
had to pass along a roadway on one
side of which was stone wall. A COM

stationed behind it. General MaceO and
young Gomez were in advance of the
rest of the party. Suddenly the rifle

Lower California. His work takes him
over much of the northern part of the

watching me every second. He dropped
his blankets, but kept hold of his rifle.
Then he asked me for something to eat.

his looks. l asked him what he was do

to be out in the hills without any grub,
