PRINCE HENRY OF eNBURo
He Dies on the Expedition Against
the Ashantees.

The death of Prince Henry Maurice
of Battenberg, son-in-law of Queen
Victoria, which occurred recently, as
the result Of swamp fever contracted
while ON the military expedition OF the
British into Ashantee, West Africa, Is
q severe blow to the Queen, who was
deeply attached to him, and the Prin-
cess Beatrice, his wife The prince was
u fine-looking man and Joined the ex-
petition in search of fame, being mill
tary secretary to Sir Francis Scott, the
general in charge. Soon after entering
Ashantee he was stricken with swamp
fever and was sent back to the coast
to be conveyed to the healthful island
of Madeira. He died on the steamer
that was conveying him there.
Prince Henry was born in 1858 in
Hesse Darmstadt, and was the issue OF
a morganatic marriage. In 1880, he
married the Princess Beatrice, young
est daughter of the Queen and her ia
vOrite child. The rest Of the royal fam
fly and the nation at large opposed the
union, but the Queen had her way and
furthermore expressly SIIpuldteU tudt
the princess should never leave her
side. Accordingly Prince Henry be-
came one of the Queens household,
and attended her ma jesty on almost all
occasions At the time of his marriage
he was only drawing $500 a year as
lieutenant In the PruSsian army; but
the Queen had parliament confer a
dowry Of $1500O0 on Beatrice and an
annuity Of $4,000. On this the prince
and his wife were able to get along
The prince was further ennObled and
had offices conferred on him. Neverthe
less the English people never took kind
ly to him, though he was really a good
and cOnSiderate man. 1t was to change
the feeling toward him that he Joined
the Ashantee expedition. He sought
fame and found death. The prince
leaves four children, the oldest of whom
is 8 years Princess Beatrice is 80
years old and has been always popular.
She Is a musician of note.

Proud of His A@e.

The oldest white man in Sonoma
County, California, William Blackman,
died in Healdsburg last week, at the
age of 100 years and three months. He
was especially anxious that it should
be known that he did not die of old
age. Pneumonia cut his life short and
there is little doubt he would have lived
some years longer in the natural course
of events. He was very active and
healthy up to the time he took cold.
He smoked and drank intoxicants in
his early life, but abandoned both hab-
its half a century before his death.

FROST, FROLIC AND BUSINESS,


The winds over frozen ponds and lakes,
over snOw-felds of plains and open coun-
try. is heavily charged with frost and fine
particles of frozen matter. 1t is the most
penetrating way for chill to set in. Sud-
den warmth, sudden chill, and severe
colds. Girls and boys skating, driving for
pleasure or business, and men at work
atield know the difference in temperature.
Yet the youngsters skate away and with
mouth open laughing take in dose OF
surethroat. Drivers and workmen throw
aside wraps and all know the next day
from soreness and stiffness what sudden
chill means. Now the best thing to do
when housed is to rub well at once with St.
Jacobs Oil. If you do, you will not have
sorethroat; or if you are stiff and sore, it
will cure by warming the surface to throw
out the chill.

From the New York Journal.
One of the latest tricks is to photo
graph a living head on a plate. The de-
fusion Is merely a Photographic one. Pho
tographs taken in this way snow the
head of a living person resting on plate
which forms part of the furnishing of a
dinner table The object is not at all
greWsome. In fact. II preserves an abso-
lutely Efelil1e appearance. The contri-
vance for bringing about this remarkable
delusion is so simple that any one may
arrange it, 1t is only necessary to re-
move the central leaf Of an ordinary ex-
tension table, and 10 provide a Plate or
pan cut away so that L may be cOnVen-
iently placed around the neck. The per
son 10 be Photographed is seated under
the table so that the head appears just
above the table top. The cloth and the or
binary dinner set are then arranged in
the usual way. The head is put through
a hole in the cloth and the plate or dish
is placed closely about the neck. OF
course, the delusion is heightened by the
camera. Any one would recognize the de-
ception at a glance, but the camera sees
1t with more partial eye. Pictures made
in this manner have often been extremely
The Trick of photographing a fly or an
ant in such way that II looks like some
gigantic monster of prehistoric times is
also very simple. The eye estimates sizes
wholly by comparison. We judge the size
of unfamiliar objects by comparison with
more familiar ones. The moon, for eX-
ample, appears very much larger as It
rises above the housetops than when IL
is directly overhead. 1t is only neces-
sary to set a miniature church about an
inch in hight beside an ordinary fly in
order to show in the photograph. at
least, a strange( fierce animal as large
as a cable car The camera by repro
ducing only the two objects, makes t i'm
possible to estimate the actual size OF
either of them This same principle has
been applied successfully in photograph

Dentist. to study conversations.
From the New York Journal


The dental profession in Vienna has
formed a novel society, which proposes
to instruct it's members in the art OF
pleasing conversation, garnished by light
anecdote The theory of this is that the
patients undergoing long and difficult dem
tai operations need to be amused and
entertained.
recited the fact that the modern race Of
dentists were giving altogether too much
time and attention TO the scientific side OF
the profession, and not doing enough TO
attract and interest their clients. Careful,
persistent and thorough work, II went on
to say, is one thing, and 1t is highly nee
eSsary that no operating dentist shouG
forget that the patient in the chair has
none of this kind of stimulus, nothing
whatever TO interest him, and is general
~ suffering besides. The real dentist
should be able to do his work deftly and
quickly, and at the same time. by clever
talk, keep his patients mind off of the
operation
Hitherto the dentists from the moment
they began their course of study, have
set their attention severely upon practi-
cal science and have given no time al all
to the lighter side of life. The. greater
number of them are hard students al
ways, and they let the frivolous side Of
the world so in their pursuit of knowl-
edge.
This has given the American dentist
who has settled abroad in the eontinet-
al towns opportunity to work up large and
hourishlng practices, merely because they
have taken pains to be interesting to their
patients and have amused them What
the Niennese society proposes to do it TO
start classes in the art of conversation,
and to get the staid scientific men in the
way of chatting while their hands are
employed in doing the most delicate work.

MONROE DOCTRINE.

Taking up the Islands of Cuba
and Hawaii, in his notable speech
in the Senate, Mr.. Davis showed,
says the report, the consistent and
persistent course of the United
States in applying the spirit of the
Monroe doctrine to these islands.
1t had been invoked in the case of
Cuba whenever England or France
had sought to get foothold there.
In the case of Hawaii a resolution
had been passed at the last session
ofCongress declaring that the United
States would not look with favor
OH any foreign intervention in the
affairs of Hawaii. The Senator
referred to the animosity of the
debate over Hawaii, and to the
effort to restore the Hawaiian
throne. If it was proper to pass
such a resolution as that relating
to Hawaii, why should question
be raised as to the policy of a firm
protectorate and enunciation of the
disposition of the Monroe doctrine
to the pending difficulties?
