An Albino Deer.

The geological manuals Will tell one
that the deer of the Rocky Mountains
is red in summer and gray in the late
fall and winter. They will say nothing
of white deer, with pink nose and pink
eyes-albino deer. Yet such deer have
been seen from time to time in the west
ern part of Colorado, and, at last, one
of the taxidermists Of the city is going
to mount one.
The deer in question will be shipped in
few days to Hugo Todenwarth's in
Latimer street, opposite the city hail.
1t was killed last winter, on Pieance
Greek, in the White River country, just
before Christmas, by F. S.Wells, the son
of the Wells of the Wells ranch, known
throughout the country. 1t is three
year-old, with every hair white, except
parts of the legs. The nose was pink
when the animal lived, but has faded
now to a pale brown. The parts OF the
legs not white are a grayish brown,
passing gradually into white above the
knees.
r. w Wells, a brother of the man who
shot the albino deer, and assistant at
Todenwarth'S taXidermist shop, says
that he saw white deer on Pieance
Creek seven years ago.
Il had lived in the country years be-
fore l saw it. But when l did, l had left
my gun five miles away at home and
did not get a chance to shoot. Later in
the year l heard that a hunting party
had shot a white deer. 1 have little
doubt that was one l had seen a few
months earlier and had been unable to
get. l never heard what became of
this one. The one which is now COM
ing to us will be mounted and probably
sold to some museum or collection. Mr..
Todenwarth is in correspondence with
several now who are anxious to possess
such a curiosity. denver Post.

GERMAN EMPRESS POPULAR.
How She Looked When She Led
Her Regiment in Review.

If Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany is not
winning the favor of his subjects as
successfully as some might wish, his
wife Is. The Germans love her, in the
first place, because she is Of their race,
and secondly because she does not air
the same notions that her 'conSecrated
and halloWed'' husband is in the habit
of doing. An American woman who saw
the Empress and her regiment in re-
view before the Emperor confessed 1t
was a beautiful tableau. After long
lines Of men and officers went by there
was a sharp flourish of bugles and
eight splendid men on gray horses, in
white uniforms, flashing hemlets and
cuirasses, rode rapidly into view. -Four
We're in front and four behind the En-
press, who rode alone. Her horse, bril-
die, saddle and habit We're pure white.
Over the breast Of her silver lacing rid
ing jacket a row of medals cleaned,
a sash of the royal order was draped
over one shoulder, two long white os-
trich plumes streamed backward from
her little cooked hat, and in one white
gloved hand she held shining drawn
sword. There was a spontaneous out
burst of applause as she went swiftly

it all, and saw, too, she said, the fiery
young Emperor's face relax for a mo-
ment, as well it might, at the sight of
his wife's graceful figure, her smiling
face. and her perfect control Of the ami
NAL she rode.
Nowadays, that there are no more ba-
bies TO claim her hourly attention, and
most of her boys are at school, the EN-
press goes with her husband on near
w all his tours about Germany. and at
every unwilling, ships launching, mill
tary review or dedication she takes a
small but attractive part. 1t was in
the City of Hanover, not long since
when the royal pair unveiled a statute
the same day a big German steamer
was launched. Arrangements were
made that by pigeons news OF the
launching should be- sent the Emper-
or. In white. az usual, the Empress
stood alone and rather conspicuously
while her husband reviewed the BODY
of troops. All at once q flock OF white
and gray pigeons swept over the heads
OF the crowd, not to their home loft,
but directly to where the Empress
stood. and settled fiuttering and COO
ing. on her shoulders, arms. and hands.
The pretty sight was too much for the
sentimental Germans, who fell to cheer
ing vigorously. Chicago Chronicle.

I Two bits from the "Cornhilrs Pri-

some anecdotes of an ordination exam

of was that of my neighbor at -, who

work. But his device did not take in
the local tradesmen who assisted at

painter, and is sure of dying before his
boom is over, let him write his name in
every book.
