The Golden Rose

The "Golden Rose, which the Pope for merly gave only to the senators of Rome
 but which is now conferred upon the princes and other dignitaries of the church as mark of the highest distinction, was conferred only upon women of royal blood, and is unattainable by all others As the Order of the Rose is placed upon a golden stem about a meter high and Is contained in receptacle made of silver, it cannot be worn as orders usually are at all but is regarded as a show piece. Its value varies from $2,500 to $12.00o. It is com monly considered an order for royalties

 This is also the case with the gold and silver cross of merit of Austria, the order of the house of Ernest of Saxe-Meiningen, for artistic work, and the Order of Merit of the Bavarian Crown. Lately, Prince Regent Luitpold of Bavaria conferred the gold medal of this order upon Sophie Kaul- bach, wife of the celebrated painter, for having saved a young man from drowning at the great peril of her own life. King Humbeft of Italy also lately conferred the bravery medal upon woman of Rome, Miss Piermattei Gentle, aged seventeen years. who came to the rescue of woman attacked at night and saved her from mur- der at great risk to herself. There is in Italy no order exclusively for women.

Warrington. June 9.-The activity and
frequent exchange of communications
between the war and navy departments,
eliminating in visits by Acting Secre-
tary Allen, Admiral Sicard and Captain
Crowinshield in person to the war de-
partment yesterday, led to the belief
that either the United States troops
were actually embarking at Tampa or
that the movement is about to begin
The officials, however, where not abso-
lutely ignorant themselves as to what
was going on at Tampa. We're all under
an injunction delivered by Secretary AL
ger himself to keep the troop move
ments absolutely secret. There were in
timations that took away in a measure
the disappointment occasioned by this
attitude, to the effect that once the
troops are ashore there will be con-
siderable relaxation Of the rules now so
rigidly applied relative to the giving
out Of information as to the army's
| movements.
There is considerable mystery con-
| corning the cutting of cables running out
| of Cuba and the continuance of cable
| service from that island. 1t was posi-
lively established yesterday that the
French cable running from Santiago tc
| Cape Haytien went out Of service last
Friday and remained out of working
condition until Saturday. During the
twenty-four hours interruption the ca
| bic company was unable to carry any
| business over this line. There is little
| doubt that the interruptiOn was dI,
to the work of the cable cutting shiT
sent out by General Greely. But the
mystery Of the affair is that the French
cable began working again on Saturday
How this came about is beyond explana
tion by the best cable experts. The
French Cable company is as much IL
the dark on this point as are the au
thorities here.
