Once again England nervously is dis
cussing the possible exhaustion of her
coal supply, which forms the backbone
of her commercial supremacy. Leon
ard Courtney, as president of the Sta
tistical society, this week more than
confirms Prof. Jevons' view that the
supply will be in peri! within All or
dinary lifetime. The output for 1896
actually was 30 per cent. less than it
would have been If the rate of progress
in Jevons' time had been maintained.
While the British output has Increased
less than 2h times since 1850, the
American output has increased tenfold,
while the American cost of output has
greatly increased. This confirms the
Spectators belief that America soon
will: occupy position Of unchaIIcnged
supremacy in the Industrial world
England must adjust herself to n
smaller output Of Goa. and iron, and n
readiustmeht Of vocations. =.
"Tf," adds the Spectator, English
supremacy be destroyed, it will be not
through the failure OF coal, but through
incapacity to keep pace with tbe electric
development In America and Germany"

LOUIS PHILIPPE IN EXILE.
When a Poor Duke He Wanted to
Marry an American Girl, But
Her Father Objected.

A merchant prince was great man IN
cid Philadelphia-a far greater man
than the master of little school, even
though it were the most select in the
city-even though the teacher were an
eXiled French gentleman of royal blood,
duke of Orleans then, King Louis
Philippe in after years.
The story of how the princely school
master courted the charming Abigail,
daughter of Thomas Willing, is re-
lated with new detail in a recent num-
heT of the Ladies' Home Journal.
Dressed in his best, and probably, not,
withstanding that ne was modest and
sensible young man, little in fear of an
unfavorable response, the exiled prince
called on the American merchant and
asked him for his daughter. There was
perhaps, more pride than humility in
tie answer he received:
"Sir, should You ever be restored to
your hereditary position, you will be
too great match for my daughter; if
rot, she is too great match for you"
So the poor schoolmaster went away
disappointed, and, although only his
position" and the lady's appear to have
been considered by the hard-hearted
parent, it is probable that if Mistress
Abigail had not agreed with his opinion
she would have made her influence felt.
As it was, Louis Philippe married
Princess Marie Amelie, daughter of the
king of Naples, while Abigail Willing, of
Philadelphia, who might have been
queen of France, became plain Mrs.
Richard Peters.

POLITENESS FOR NOTHING.
The Gallant Action of . Man Brings
Only Humiliation at the Hands
of 4 Proud Woman.

A stylishly attired woman was seen
walking down Washington street the
other day, attracting considerable at
tcntion By her fine figure and graceful
carriage. Men turned to glance after
her and women managed to see the
sweep of her skirt and the cut of her
Coat behind out of the corners of their
eyes without turning around at all, a
habit most women have. At all events
The woman was stunning and young

the object lay and stopped down to get
it. At the same instant ragged Italian
vcman made grab at it, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
The young artist got it ano the wom-
al got it, and both were determined to
retain his hold. After some words on
.he subject, during which the artist felt
like fool, he conquered and rushed
frantically down the street, where the
stunning woman could still be seen. He
was breathless when he overlook her
but, lifting his hat politely, he said:
Il saw you drop your purse, madam
and take pleasure in returning it to
YOU" Haughtily the woman looked al
him. Really, sir, you are very kind,

She was not young woman and she did
not look strong. There was quite a
Jam of vehicles in the street, motor cars,
wagons and bicycles, and she seemed a
little timid about risking the passage.
As she hesitated a man came up Bond
street and paused beside her. He was
a well-dressed man and carried heavy
cane. which noticed he used constant

Sir said the lady to him, can | ask

A BOY HERO.
The Pittsburgh Youth who Fought
at Manila and Met Ad-
miral Dewey.

One of the heroes of the battle of
Manila is a 13-year-old boy, who is
popularity called Boots" by his com
rades. Boots lately returned on tic
transport City of Para, and has had the
distinction of having had personal in
terview with Admiral Dewey, who gave
him free trip to Hong-Kong on the
olympia because of his services in the
siege of Malate and the fight before
Manila. He is the boy who came from
Pittsburgh with the regiment. The
men smuggled him aboard the trans
port, but he had hard luck, as he fell
down the hatchway on the third day
out and broke his arm. He was ali
light when Manila was reached, and ID
the trenches before Malate he carried
water and ammunition and paid no at
tention to the bullets. AS he said
There was no chance to dodge 'em
they came so quick" He was among
the first to enter Manila with a cap
tured Spanish rife, which he brings
back with him. On August 13 he
learned that the Olympia was to go to
Hong-Kong, so he determined to make
the trip. He boarded the ship and
asked to be shown to the admiral's
cabin. Dewey was sitting at table
with the captain of the ship.
Boots" said: II salutes and saws:
Admiral, l want to go to Hong-Kong,
and he says, pleasant like: Well, my
boy, you come aboard and Wen take
you -
He was 13 days on the Olympia,

accompanied as u rule by a servant.

masses of white drapery, which make
her look like d walking bundle, and in
front of her face she arranges large
black scarf embroidered with blue, red
and white flowers. 1t falls low III front,

as any blind man, Servants aud other
women of the lower classes wear
pieces of black crepon wound tightly
round their faces, leaving just a slit
for their eyes to peep through, ano
they are equally muffied up in white
Graperies. Seen from distance, they
might be men with masks or thick
black boards, as in Arab countries it is
by no means easy to tell a man from
woman at first sight. The older and
uglier woman is the more prudish she
seems to be about covering up her face,
which, after all, is rather considerable
on her part. Even the greater num-
her of negresses wear the yashmak,
but the Bedouin women never do. In
deed, | am told that in the interior
there is one Arab tribe whose men
wear wells, and whose women GO abou,
with their faces uncovered. These are
probably the new women" of Africa.

Feathers for Fashion.

Manufacturers of artificial birds buy
directly from the farmers and make up
their stock with no particular regard
for the accurate representation of
species. just at present the birds in
fashion for mourning hats are small
black parrots, and there are no such
birds in nature A fashion is in vogue
to match the costume in the plumage of
the bird trimmings, and manufacturers
use their best art to supply the demand.
Sooner or later this fashion will be the
means Of establishing regular farms for
the production of feathers for millinery
purposes

Kitchen Magazine gives as the opinion
OF dentist that the poor teeth of chill
