The emperor Of Germany has received
recently SO many letters from children
begging far presents of vssni us kinds
that he has issued through the minister
Of instruction TN order to tie pubIie
gchoolteaehers to discourage the writ
ing Of srcii letters b. pupils. except IN
cases of necessity. In one mail, q few
days ago, his majesty received four let
tiers from Berlin school children. One
wished new violin to take The place
Of her old one. two desired sewing ma
chimes. and q fourth asked the dear
Herr Kaiser to give her 20 cents to
buy coal. His majesty sent one Of his
officers to see the various families be-
fore answering the requests.
The child who wished money fer ccal
was found TO be the tlaughtercf q widow
who had little or nothing. a large load
of coal was sent TO her, as well as q
present III money. The musical child
was ordered to q professor who was to
give her lessons, and if she showed
talent she was to receive the neyy violin.
One of the children who asked for the
seNlhg lnacnlHe Was iOunu TO belong TO
well to do family. She was told not
to repeat her otfense. The other little
one, however, received promise Of a
sewing machine on condition that, when
she finished her schooling, her record
proved her to be deserving Of a present
from her emperor. William II might
deplete his purse if he undertook to re-
ward all petitioners 50 literally as these
three Berlin Correspondence.

Kyosai would not badge. Kato there

next The artist paid him visit, this
was produced and lauded to the skies.
Kato declared that the daub was the

protested that it was a worthless com
terfeit. Finally he rushed away i'll a
rage, while Kato rubbed his hands at
the success Of his ruse.
Confident Ct the resalt, Kato invited
some friends for the following evening
and related to them the device he was
employing. They waited for the advent
of Kyosai, and at last, but not until the
small hours Of the morning, he appear

he threw toward the hest, at the same
time asking III an angry voice whether
Kato still persisted in attributing the
other picture to him. The collector, de-
lighted with the success CT his plan and

A Modern Greek Hero.

Some OF cur famous athletes may
think republics ungrateful when they
compare their treatment TO that Of the
Greek who won the recent foot race from
Marathon to the stadion. Nothing, .
says the correspondent CT the London
Chronicle, illustrates the character CT
the modern Greek so much as the ex-
traerdinary attention shown to the win
ner Of this race. He has been treated as
sort Of domigod. All his sayings are
duly reported; he has been escorted III a
carriage by a detachment Of troops.
When he walks i'll the streets, crowds Of
respectable men and women follow, and
the king Of Greece has not only shaken
hands with him, but both he and his
father have been invited to the palace.
Private individuals have given him
large sums of money; wine dealers, gro
GERS and numerous other tradesnen have
offered to supply all his requirements
for year free Of cost, and a barber has
been reported as having offered to shave
him and cut his hair fer the period Of
his lifetime free of cost -
