fell far behind in a great many other

An Up-to-Dnte Prince...

Princess Laetitia, dowager duchess Of
Aosta, is one of the most cheerful and
up-to-date OF European princesses, but
she has had the misfortune all her life
TO be kept much in order. She was
brought up with extreme strictness by
Princess Clothilde, though occasionally
she broke out and openly rebelled.
Princess Clothllde insisted on her wear
ing her hair parted in the middle and
brushed smoothly behind the ears, a
fashion she objected to much. One day
it was untidy and she was sent to her
room to do it over again. When, how
EVER, she came down to dinner It was
found that she had cropped 1t as short
as boys. Although she is now over 30
and widow, she still drives her ladies
in waiting to despair by her hayward
ness, and particularly by her passion
for bicycling. Instead of being content
to cycle in the privacy Of her park, the
duchess insists on riding about the pub
lie roads of Italy and the Riviera. The
house OF Savoy Is noted for it's strict
etiquette, and Italian court duennas
look on Princess I.aetitia with grave dis
approval as the Instrumentation of the
royal new woman.--Chicago Tribune.

SILVER IN SPAIN.
An object Lesson which Popocratio
Promoters of Cheap Money
should study.

As an awful example Spain Is not
without her usefulness to the cause Of
progressive enlightenment. Her inhu-
mainly has served the purpose Of arous-
ing modern sentiment to the inevitable
overthrowing Of her inquisitorial insti-
buttons. In addition to this and similar
sins held up to public execration OF q
disgxsted world, she has others. In
her plans of finance the popocratic pro-
moters Of free silver heresy have an
object lesson well worth needing. She
stands before the world country de-
voted to a silver basis and committed to
rotten paper currency. Gold Is at a
premium, while the paper Is practically
worthless outside of Spanish territory.
Neither Spanish paper nor silver will
purchase munitions of war, and the
Bank Of SPANS alleged gold reserve has
been drawn on heavily for this purpose.
The people who have not seen any form
of money but the well-nigh worthless
have taken alarm and are making
frantic efforts to exchange it for the
deprecated silver, knowing that they
cannot obtain gold for it,
In order to save herself from threat
ened panic, she orders the expectation
of silver stopped, but even that will not
save her. Her unstable financial condi-
ton but illustrates that, while enlight-
cned nations have revised their none
tary systems upon sound basis,
medieval Spain, in her ignorance, has
clung to her silver standard, with ruin
as an inevitable result.
Without money she cannot war, and
the money she can command is worth
less outside her own boundaries. Even
there it is debased and deprecated
substitute for n current exchange.
Among the lessons of this war this
should not be without its salutary eff
fect.-Cincinnati Com mercal Gazette.

AN INTERESTING CHOIR.
One mt Lead Hall Chapel, Near York,
England, sings Only Once
Year.

About mile from the village of Tow
ton, near York, there is an exceedingly
interesting and curious old church,
known as the Lead Hall chapel. tits re-
marlcable for several reasons, chiefly
because of its age; its small size, prob
ably it would not seat 90 people alto
gether; It's main fittings, and lastly, be-
cause of its curious choir.
To understand about this choir IL is
necessary to review little OF the his
tory Of this famous old place of wor-
ship. There are two theories rs TO its
origin. Ii is most commonly believed
that this chapel is the one known to
have been built by Richard III. in 1461.
II is claimed that the yearly services
now taking place In II are survival OF
those that were formerly ordered for
the purpose of praying for the souls OF
the good Christians who fell in the great
battle. Another supposition declares
this chapel to be attached to the old
manor house Of the Tyas family at Lead
Hall, and that the memorial chapel OF
Richard III. has long since disappeared.
1t is obvious, however, that, II this
were the case, service every six
months would not greatly edify the peo-
pie in their spiritual life!
Having thus explained the chapeTs
history, we may go to the choir. There
are two services yearly held at the Lead
Hall church-one in April and another
in October. There is, therefore, no reg.
uhr body Of choristers, but on such oc-
casions choir is made up from the
chief singers in the neighboring towns,
who are under the control, for this pur-
pose, of well-known musical professor
in Yorkshire. The majority of the men
and boys who make up the choir are
drawn from York and Leeds. They re-
ceive stated fee for their days services
and ore provided with refreshments.
The regular service of the Church of
England is used. The congregation at
these services often does not exceed half
dozen people, or half the size of the
choir! The vicar OF neighboring
parish conducts the services.
Those who maintain the theory of the
chapers origin in the time of Richard
III. declare that the king made grant
Of money for the holding of memorial
services, and that II Is for this reason
that two services n year are regularly
held.-Sunday Reader.
