Cost of English Royalty.
From the London Truth.

From the London Truth.
The chancellor of the exchequer went ont
of his way recently to explain how little
the monarchy costs England. The crown
lands, he said belong to the sovereign and
produce S2o6o,0oO per annum. The queen re-
ceives instead of this revenue 81 925 600 and
the rest of the royal family 81, $50 600
Therefore the total cost of monarchy tc
the taxpayer is s925O00. The entire calcu-
lation proceeds on the erroneous assump-
ton that the crown lands are the private
property of the sovereign. This they are
not. They originally formed a portion OF
the general revenue of the country. out OF
which came the maintenance of the SOW.
ell gn.
That abject fiunky. Lord Butte. wishing
to curry favor with George Ill inserted in
the civil list act which was passed on that
monarchs accession remuneration by him
OF the crown lands. and this renuncia ton
by sovereign of what he did not POSSESS
is the basis of the theory OF these crown
lands being the private property of the &C.
cupant of the throne.
According, therefore, to Sir Michael
Hicks Reach's own figures, monarchy costs
England s2.9S5, o0o. The real amount is
however, much higher, for there are num-
berless expenses incidental to the instisu-
tior which he does not include. The hard
fact remains that in France the President
receives 100000 per annum. and fulfills
with decent splendor all the duties of the
head of the state, whilst with England the
monarchy costs nearer one million pounds
than one million francs. A defense, there
fore. or monarchy on the ground of econ
omy hardly holds water.

PARIS. June 16, 1897.
The Grande Monde of Paris now fills
the Bots and Champs Elysees with such
richness of color and form to vie with
the very blossoms of nature, and the sea-
sons fashions have been positively desig-
mated at the "Concours Hyppique." the
Partisan horse show, and very recently by
the Grand Prix or Derby.
The dresses this year are particularly
pretty and becoming, the keynote seems
TO be simplicity. but it is the simplicity
which requires absolute perfection and ex-
quisite "raffinement'' which means the
study of lifetime to the couturier.
The best dressed Parisienne avoids glow
ing colors and affects a somberness which
IS sometimes none the less coquettish
striking. All the colors of this season are
neutral and soft; there are above ali the
mary shades of the fashionable gray, like
bleu-g girls, c&pucn, the darker gray of the
monks yestment, and mauve-lavender,
delicate combination of lavender and pur

In a recent lecture before the Royal So
cIety Lord Kelvin INDICATED the correct
ness Of Volta's early theories in relation
to contact electricity. He showed that
when n zinc plate and copper plate are
brought into contact with one another and
then separated one ives charged with pos
tive electricity and the other with mega
tive. He further demonstrated that this
was not due to oxidation by air or the
moisture of the atmosphere. as is stated in
the text books Of the day. Lord Kelvin
exhibited several other experiments Illus

of dissimilar metals. and showed some
curious properties possessed by uranium.

an electrometer and touched by a plate of

duced. gradually changing past zero to
negative. He also demonstrated that the
rays given eff by uranium in a dark room

could offer no solution of the mysterious
