TWO UNFORTUNATE PRINCESSES
THE INFANTA JOSEPHINES LONELY DEATH
PRINCESS EVANHE'S JEWELS.

From The London Globe
The life and adventures of two unfortunate
princcsses are going the rounds of the
salons The first, the Princess Josephine. be-
longed TO the reigning family Of Spain, and de-
scended in direct line from King Charles ~.
She was aunt Of King Alphonso XIII, sister-in-
law Of Queen Isabella, and sister OF King Fran
els. Fifty years ago she one Of the most
aduated princcsses Of the Court of Spain, and
by her numerous qualities seemed destined TO
become q Queen. But fate wlled otherwise ana
her life one Of poverty and oblivion. The
beginning Of her decadence was her marriage
with certain Pole. the Count Gurowski, which
took place at Dover in ISL The union dis
pleased her family. and rupture followed.
The Count died in 1887. leaving her almost pen
ness. She then came to Paris, where she lived
On q small pension from the Spanish Govern
ment Two years later she took lodging in
a humble hotel in the Rue d'Antin, where she
died a few days ago.
She rarely spoke of her family. save to obtain
credit from the tradespeople. She knew that
the nogh bors were not ignorant of her royal
birth, and that sufIiced her During the last
years Of her life she grew very cOrpulent, and
never left her room. where she spent her days
in drinking. She was a deadly enemy Of re-
ligiOn. One day, on being asked why she,
Spanish Princess, did not go to church, she re-
piled: "Oh, no. the bare idea Of seeing a priest
especially a Spanish one, is obnoxious to me"
For some time little court graVitated around
her. Dukes and counts with doubtful titles and
empty purses partook Of her generosity, and ate
and drank till the early hours of the morning.
But her resources We're soon exhausted and the
grand seigneurs ceased honoring her with their
presence. Solitude now reigncd complete in the
poor dwelling of the Infanta. who. wrapping
herself 40 in he, sorrow remained mute and

afraid of death, and would call in of her

ore morning she fell down and broke her head

summoned, and ordered her to keep her bed.
but all in vain: she never recovered. She was
conscious to the last, and repeated several times

Motel who closed her eyes. She was buried the
next day, and among the mourners was the

RAILROAD MEN ON 1907"
SOME EXPERT CRITICISMS OF K1PLING'S
ENGINE STORY


The recently published story Of Rudyard Kip
ling entitled ".007." in which many of the char
acters are locomotives, has attracted consider
able attention in railroad circles and many pro-
fessional railroad men agree in crediting the
author with unusual knowledge of railroad
usages technical terms and mechanical matters.
Much of the conversation in the story is carried
on by locomotives Of various types which meet
In a round house, where .O07, IAN eight-wheeled
American loco" becomes acquainted with

you can't expect a writer of jungle stories
to be letter perfect in railroad matters" said an
old engineer, Especially if the writer Is an
Englishman and the railroad matters in his
stories are American He tries hard to appear
American, but in the first sentence in which the
engine with the impossible name IS referred to,
he shows his English. No one on this side OF
the water ever refers to an engine as loco,
and the author never once uses the word engine
in his story. If Kipling's '.OOI' had been written
for England or the Colonies, it would have been
perfectly proper to refer to a certain style of
engine as American in build, but in this coun
try we have only American locomotives, and no
practical railroad man in the United States uses
the word 'bogie' when speaking Of truck
These errors show that Kiplng is like Sulvans
tar and:
In spite Of all temptations,
To belong to other nations
He remains an Englishman.
"If he had been reared in this country or had
\ore than a bowling acquaintance with railroad
people he would not have spoken Of an engine
as he and he would have chosen some other
decoration than pea green with a red buffer
bar for one of the most conspicuous Of his col
lection Of 'ocos.'"
Edgar Van Etten. general superintendent Of
the New-YOrk Central and Hudson River Rail
road says ct is one Of the best railroad stories
ever read. Many writer's try to write similar
tales but they usually fail when they strike
technical points; hut Kipling has made none Of
the usual blundcrs, and his story would be most
excellent from the railroad mans point Of view.

Now, a cabOose, every one knows, is the car
at the end Of a freight train, and no one ever
saw a caboose and parlor car hitched as Kip
ling describes His satire on the yardmaster is
simply delicious. 1t may be a little overdrawn,
but it shows that officer to be an unlimited
