The queens coronation ring is never

"A sister of the German nursing Order
of st. John, Fraulien Eva Bose, daughter
of the Prussian minister of public instruc-
ton and worship, recently presented her
self for examination to qualify as a phar-
macist, and was successful in obtaining
the diploma. Two other nurses from the
Berlin Hedwigs hospital who presented
themselves at the same time, also obtain
ed diplomas, and all three nurses were
specially mentioned" by the examiner.
1t is announced that Mrs. Crimson
Chant has smoked a cigarette. She did
so, when detained within the Turkish

by women. In the light or her experience
Mrs. Chants opinion is certainly interest

rent effect upon feminine devotees Of the
weed is another matter.
Charlotte Wolter, the greatest TRACE
dienne of the German stage and common
ly called the tragedy queen" died in vi
emma last week. She began stage life as
a chorus girl and when she had worked
her way up to small parts, a famous critic
long since dead, abiding to her as the
long hop-pole, without talent or graceful
ness" She became famous through her
representation of Hermoine in 'The Win
ter's Tale" Wolter was a revelation in
that part and Vienna went wild about her
After that Shakespearean parts were her
faVorites and she soon became the fore
most classical heroine of the German
stage. She was happily married for many
years to nobleman of irish extraction
Earl OSullivan, with whom she lived in
handsome cottage in a fashionable su-
burb Of Vienna. Next TO her art she was
most interested in truck gardening and
her greatest pride was 10 point to the veg
etables on her table that she had raised.

southern wsr Claims.

If 1t be true, as stated in Washington
dispatches. that there is a fair prospect
that congress, in the near future, will
pass a bill making an appropriation for
the payment of claims against the govern
ment which have been adjudicated, many
people in the south have occasion for re-
tocing majority of the adtudicated
claims are southern war claims. on most
of these claims judgment was rendered by
the court Of claims many years ago, and
the owners Of the claims have almost be-
gun to believe that congress had no inten-
ton Of appropriatng money for their pay
ment. When the bill giving the
court of claims Jurisdiction of
these claims was passed it was
the understanding that they would be paid
as fast as they were adjudcated. No pro-
vision for their payment, however, has
ever been made, and when an appropria-
ton for one or more Of them has been put
in the general appropriation bill it has
been struck out in the Senate, that body
having a rule which prohibits provision
being made for private claims in general
appropriation bills.
Both senator's and representatives cam
didly admit that adjudicated claims
against the government ought to be paid
promptly, and they have no valid excuse
for the neglect of congress to pay them.
The neglect amounts, practically, to a re-
pudiation of them. This is the view that
is being taken by some Of the leaders in
congress Of both parties, and it is a
source of satisfaction to know there is a
movement to put an end to this scandal
Gus condition of affairs
The Senate, it is said, is practically
unanimous in favor of the proposed bill,
and the understanding seems to be that it
would receive favorable consideration in
the House. If such bill should be passed
the south would be made richer by several
millions of dollars.

The Cow and tn. wheeIman.

Monroe county, New York, in enjoying a
novel lawsuit that will have special inter-
est for wheelmen, says the Helena, Mont,
Independent. A young man was wheeling
along a country road when he met a COW
so suddenly that he landed on the cow S
back. and to even up matters the COW
mounted the wheel. The COW was too
much for the wheel and it collapsed; and
while the young man fell into the ditch
the COW jumped over the fence and broke
her neck. The owner of the COW has
brought suit against the young man for
damages to his COW.
The wheelman may set up the claim
that the COW was guilty of contributory
negligence. first by getting on his wheel
when she didn't know how to ride. and
second by unnecessarily jumping the
fence. But the farmer may be able to
prove by expert medical testimony that
the shock of finding herself impaled on
a wheel rendered the COW temporarily in
sane, in which frame of mind she jumped
the fence. We believe the farmer should
be fined because his COW didn't ring a
bell, and that the wheelman should be
fined for not having a cowcather on his
wheel
