Among the guests who followed the royal
pair to Italy after the wedding in Cannes
were the Crown Prince and Princess of
Roumania 1t was the Prince Ferdinand
who was so passionateIy in love with
the beautiful and cultivated Elena Vacar-
esco. the intimate friend of2Carmen sylvia.
and who, with the adopted queen mother,
pleaded so ardently for his union with the
poetess. However they did not succeed,
for the reason that Ferdinand not being
the son of the king and queen, but the
nephew and adopted heir TO the throne.
it was not thought expedient- that the
future king should be united with a per-
son of less royal lineage than himself.
Although Elena Yacaresco was slightly
older than her lover, the two were
strangely suited to each other. and Car
men sylvia has never quite recovered from
her disappointment that the match was
not allowed to take place.
Elena has remained faithful to her love,
and devotes herself wholly to the intellec-
tual pursuits, spending the greater part
of the year In Florence and Rome. study
ing and writing. and she is one of the
best authorities living upon ancient Latin
manuscripts. Some of her verse Is ex-
quisite, and from out the realistic and
overstrained productions of today. 1t is a
delight to come across poetry of such
delicate and at the same time strong
and pure type as hers.

Speculation is still rife in Germany and
elsewhere as to whom the young Queen
Wilhelmina of Holland is going to choose
for husband, and some say now that
the lucky individual may be quite an
other man than Prince Bernhard Henry
Of SAKE Weimar, whom rumor credits
with being the chosen one. Some say that
Prince Harold of Denmark stands a bet
ter chance. Possibly. indeed, the young
queen herself does not yet know who
pleases her best. Besides she is not
quite so independent about this matter as
she would probably like. as the Dutch
parliament has to give its consent in the
premises, and without its ratification the
marriage contract would be null and void
AS large portion of the people of the
Netherlands are perennially afraid of
alleged desires on the part of Germany to
annex Holland, a groom from that coun-
try, even if he happened to be the grand
son of a Dutch woman, would not COM
mand the undivided approval of the people
of Holland. In the matter of money the
young queen will be, however, much more
independent of the Dutch parliament than
was Queen Victoria at the time of her
marriage, for Queen Wilhelmina is very
wealthy in her own right and as the
head of the house of Orange her income
is so large that her revenues as the queen
of Holland-S00.000 Dutch guilders Cor
about $3.50, ,000)-will not,,cut a large figure
with her. If she should, therefore, pick
out a poor man for husband, such as
is Prince Harold of Denmark, for in
stance, she need not, unless she choose,
bother the Dutch. Parliament for her
husbands ''appanages; at all. Another
point that interests German people good
deal is the question whether she would
confer on her consortJthe title of king,
as Queen Isabella of Spain did. and as
Maria Della Gloria of Portugal likewise
did. But the Hollanders are a stubborn
and politically cautious race, somewhat
like the English: hence their queens hus-
band may become another .'prince con-

Although the marriage of Ferdinand
with the daughter of the Duke of Edin-
burgh and Saxe-Coburg-Gotha was cele-
brated under circumstances which did not
augur any great amount of happiness or
domestic tranquility. yet the two prin-
cipals expecting not much in the way of
affection from each other-for the bride
was also very much in love with one of
her cousins-haye managed to proceed
along their way in greater accord than
many apparently more favored pairs, and
their two beautiful children are constant
bond of interest between them. The prin-
cess, like her mother, is very domestic.
and occupies herself with all that per-
tains to good housewifery. She made
sensation in Florence two weeks ago at
the races, for, being of the delicate blond
pink and white type she furnished a
strong contrast to the dusky beauties of
the south.

SPANISH AND CUBAN NAMES.
How Some of Those Now Often
Heard Are Pronounced

Heard Are Pronounced
For better understanding of the pro-
nunciatfon OF the Spanish names given
below. says the New York Tribune, IL will
be well to mention few of the important
peeuliarities in the sounds of the Spanish
consonants. The letter ''j'' in Spanish has
it's nearest English equivalent in "h, % al
though 1t is harsher than that letter. and
IS like the German gutteral "ch- 1t can
be obtained approximately by breathing
strongly in the throat. trying at the same
time to pronounce the English n The
letter g, when followed by .'e'' or IL
J Is pronounced in the same way: but In ali
other cases Is pronounced like .'g' in
Co. The Spanish '.h'' is not sounded at
all. Ii Is pronounced like ''Ils'' in bill
lion. and m like "ni'' in pinion In the
pure Castilian. which is the language of
the court and of the most highly educated
classes in Spain, the letter &C. when fol-
lowed by ''e' or - and the letter 'sz"
always are pronounced like "th' in thick
AS these consonants occur frequently they
give this purest form of Spanish a pecu-
larry soft and melodious sound. But In
many parts of Spain this '-th'' sound Is
never heard, the letters &C. and -'g'' be-
ing both pronounced like the Elngish a.
The latter custom also prevails through
out Cuba and Porto Rico. and In all the
countries of South and Central America
where Spanish is the general language.

all the names OF places in the West In

The different Lines OF work about the
mills may be classified about as follows:
Picker men, carders and ring spinners,
who are mostly women and children;
mule spinners, men and boys; Wrappers
women; slashers, men; web drawers
women; weavers, mostly women; finish
ers, both sexes. The highest wages
earned are by the picker men, who get,
ait the best, $l1 to S12 a week. From this
the scale goes down to 10 cents day OF
ten hours.
The total school enrolment OF chill
dren is nearly 5000. There are two pa
rOchial schools the st. Mary's and the
French, about 600 children attending
the two. The attendance at the other
schools is put at about 5000 at the out
side, leaving 1,4O0 children under school
age unaccOVnted for.

boxes are used for seats, a board along

least openly, in future. Tom Ellis, who

was State Printer, was discharged last
week by State Printer Parks. Ellis
claims that this was done for political
reafOns. Parks frankly admits this, but
claims that he had right to do so,
because Ellis was given the position by
Hudson simply because he has always
been a strong Republican. The Typo
graphical Union considered the matter
at Its regular meeting Sundey, and
passed the following resolution:
Resolved, That this union condemns the
praetice that has heretofore existed of
employing and discharging men in the
State printing Office for political rea-
sons
The union, OF course, recognizes no
political party, and 1t is strong enough
to enforce this regulation in the future.
