A Curious appointment.

The appointment of eH-King Milan as
general in chief OF the Servian army is
assirncd to a curious cause. King AL
cXandcr's mother, eX-Queen Natalie. it
seems, set such a pace in dress and
court festivities that the Belgrade hus-
bands could. not stand it. They re-
monstrated with the king, and, as the
surest way to keep Natalie outtof' the
capital, her spendthrift husband was
invited back.
