Hers, the number and size of which in
dictate the wealth and position of the
family, are, in the case of Loredan
palace, numerous and painted with
the Spanish colorS, red and yellow.
Before the death Of his first wife,
with whom he had not lived for many
years, Don Carlos led a life well-cal-
culated to give the goSSipS plenty of
material for their scandals. He seemed
to enjoy making his eScapadeS public,
and even the Venetians, who are by
no means prudish, were shocked.
Don Carlos first wife and the mother
of his children was Princess Marguer-
tie, daughter of a murdered king.
She was called queen "by birth and
by her goodness of heart" She was a
fair woman, with soft blue eyes, and
most gracious manners.
We read of her dressed in black, go
ing to the hospitals from bed to bed
among the wounded, saying: They are
all mine-for they are all Spaniards-
whether for US or against u.s." She
had a double sorrow, grief for her lost
throne and misery for her own wrecked
life.
Since his marriage to the Princess
Bertha de Rohan, a rather pretty and
stylish young woman, descended from
the ancient sovereigns of Brittany, he
has apparently led a most exemplary
domestic life. He is often seen bath
ing on the Ledo, and going UP and
down the canal in penny boat in
most democratic manner In their gon-
dola he and the duchess seem almost
loVer-like both sitting under the shade
of the duchess parasol.
Notwithstanding this apparent demo-
cratic simplicity, they exact from their
friends and acquaintance courtly
homage when they receive" The
duchess royal hand is extended to be
kissed, and her manner could not be
more ceremonious if she were reigning
queen of Spain. Perhaps she is prac
ticing that she may be able to receive
in good form when she does come to
the throne-if she ever does
It is said that the duchess is jealous
of her position and Will have no one
forget it. Some of the Venetians whose
pleasure it is to call upon her. object
to being reminded OF their remissness
when. for some reason, they have not
gone as often as her court etiquette de-
rnands. When Sir Henry Laird settled
in Venice he and Lady Laird left cards
for Don Carlos and the duchess at
I,oredan palace. What was their sur
prise to have their cards returned to
them with a message to the effect that
people calling upon royalty wrote their
names in the visitors book, and did
not leave cards as they would upon
ordinary people.
When Don Carlos and the duchess
were in Egypt a few years ago they
went about seeing the sights" like

CATHEDRAL OF TOLEDO.
Completed In the Year of the Discov,
cry of America.

Stephan Bonsal, late of the American
legation in Spain, contributes to the
last Century an article on Toledo, the
Imperial City of Spain,' with illuStra-
lions by Joseph Pencil. Mr.. Bonsal
says:
To the right, beyond and beneath us,
rises the great basilica, the Christian
shrine, built upon the foundations of
many strange temple, and upon cor
ner-stones that We're consecrated to
long-forgotten creeds. 1t rises out of
the low-lying swamp land and rears
its lofty spire far above the citadel
that crowns the rock-bound height. But
it is incomplete and far from perfect.
After all the centuries that have pass
ed over it, and all the generations of
men who have in their. little day Ia
bored upon it, we must accept il as a
true picture of human aspiration and
endeavor, always striving and strug-
Cling, and never attaining. The first
cathedral church of st. Mary erected
here of which a record has reached us
was consecrated toward the close of
the sixth century; but even the care
less and superficial excavations which
have been made beneath the cathedral
in recent years disclose the fact that
here there was place of prayer long
before the Christian era dawned.
The present edifice was completed in
the year of the discovery of America
The first view of the bold outlines of
the mighty pile in unfortunately i'm
paired and interrupted by the surround
ing buildings. But if we patch togeth-
er laboriously the partial views and
glimpses we obtain, we shall see that,
unlike any other Spanish shrine, the
Toledo cathedral equals, if it does not
surpass, in majesty of construction and
impressiveness the greatest cathedral
of France.
About the high altar are grouped, ac-
ccrding to dynasties, the alabaster
tombs of the old kings and the new
kings, and the heads OF puissant houses

kaps. He has an Independent and ad-
venturous spirit like his father, and is
quite as gallant. He has lately been
at Nice, on leave of absence, GONZALES
cling from a serious attack of pneu-
monfa.
The prince is a great favorite among
his comrades; the more so as he is
very circumspect, and, whenever there
is talk of an uprising in Spain, ''sits
has given him to understand that he
will forfeit his good will and good
opinion if he should, while a Russian
officer, take part in 2zSbellion against
q country with which he (the czar) is
on friendly terms.
Don Jaime is very fond of Vienna,
and he cannot understand why the i'm
perial family and Viennese court should
have shown so much ill-feeling and ag-
gressive dislike for him. He intended
to serve in the Austrian army, but
their dislike made life-there intolerable
for him. He appears to be quite happy
and content, although his father allows
him but $4,000 per year.
Not so very long ago Don Jaime
donned the disguise of a gray wig and
Spanish cloak and travelled all through
Spain In several places he aroused
the suspicious of the police. On one
occasion in Madrid he came face to
face with the young king and his
mother, a situation which it required
great presence of mind and GOODNESS to
face without detection.
When Don Jaime heard of his sisters
elopement with Count Folchi, a penni-
less artist a cripple and a married
man, he obtained leave of absence
from his regiment, and went to the
Spanish frontier, hoping to catch the
couple on their way TO France, and to
kill the count; but he missed them and
they still live to repent their hasty ac-
ton. Don Carlos was naturally very
much cut up over this escapade OF
Donna Elvira's. He addressed a COM
munication to his followers, announc-
ing that his daughter was dead to
him and asking them to pray for her
miserable soul" He would have moth
ing to do with her, Notwithstanding
Donna Elvira wrote to him from Bar
celona, imploring his pardon and max
ing excuses for her conduct by saving
that since his second marriage she had
found life intolerable with her step
mother, the duchess. Neither this let
ter, nor the fact that the wife of Count
Philippe Folchi had obtained a divorce.
so that the count was now free to mar
ny his daughter, had any effect upon
Don Carlos; he had buried his daugh-
ter and would not have her resur-
rected.
Not long since, the adherents of
Philip, Duke of Orleans, celebrated his
35th birthday by a mass of thanks
giving for the birth of the king" as
they are pleased to call him Accord
ing to a chronicler, the climax of the
affair was reached at the church when

that all the needs of a large floating
population is provided for in the lava-
tories, the barber shops, the lunch
rooms, the retiring rooms, the smoking
rooms, the emigrant rooms, the cab
mems and bootblacking rooms, the soda

DON CARLOS AND HIS CAUSE
Personal Account of the Spanish Pretender and His
Family

Don Carlos, the pretender to the
throne of Spain, may at any moment
become a prominent parsonage in the
affairs Of that country. He lives, as
ne has for years, in Loredan palace,
on the Grand canal, Venice, where he
and his wife, the Duchess of Madrid,
keep up a senli-royal state. The two
ladies-in-waiting upon the duchess live
within the palace, while the gentlemen
in Don Carlos suite club together and
live in a mess, just. as officers in the
army do. The well-known penurious-
ness of Don Carlos is such that any
one attached to his suite must live on
as little as possible.
Loredan palace stands on the corner
Of the Grand canal and San Pho, a
smaller one, running at right angles
with it. There is one room, called the
armory, which is filed with flags and
trophies of the Carlist wars. The royal
arms appear over the door and on the
heavily draped, black gondola belong

Fate of the Spanish Armada.

The last Century contains an article
on THE Spanish Armada" by William
Frederic Tilton, with an introduction
by Captain Alfred T. Mahan. Captain
Mahan saws:
The fate of the Spanish armada
stands conspicuous among the great
catastrophies of war narrated by his
tory. According to the estimate of the
Spanish captain Duro, who has been
a close student of the records in his
own country, out of 100 sail of which
the armada was composed When it left
Lisbon on May 80, 1888, 63 We're lost. OF
these only nine fell in battle or in inn
mediate consequence thereof, although
the injuries received in the various ac-
tions in the channel doubtless contrib
uted to the ultimate shipwreck of
many. Nineteen were cast away on
the Scottish and Irish coasts; 80 disap-
peared altogether. OF these last, it is
possible that some of the smaller
classes of vessels may have reached
port, and that the fact passed unnoted;
but of the forty-odd larger vessels
which never returned, the probability
is that those whose fate is unknown
persisted at sea.

once accomplished the purpose of sep
arating the local from the through traf-
fic. The arrangements of the tracks for
the express trains, which run in on the
second floor, differs little from that of
an ordinary station. In the basement
however, the arrangement is unique.
There are but two. tracks, one in and
one out, forming a large and nearly
circular loop. By means of a switch,
second auxiliary loop is formed inside
of the first. Thus there is a continu-
Gus passage of trains through the sta
ton, which gains for it all of the facili-
ties of a way station, while it is at the
same time a terminal. The time or
| dinarily lost in backing out of station
to make room for other trains in
changing a locomotive from one end to
the other, in turning over the backs of
seats and other minor necessities of
the same nature, will now be saved.
The double loop will hold Il three-car
trains. 1t would be possible for one
suburban train to depart from the sta
ton every minute and yet allow each
train to stay five minutes on the loop
to unload and load. During the work
ing time of the day, or from a. m.
until midnight, this would mean the
dispatch of 1850 trains. Adding the
capacity of the express floor, the gem
eral capacity of the station might be
reckoned as 1000 trains a day. Nor is
this suburban schedule of one train a
minute to be considered very wild, for
Boston ranks as the second city in the
country in traffic of this nature, and
the depot will even now be operated
at the rate of $50 trains a day.
The loop tracks are sunk foot be-
low asphalt platforms, which are capa-
BILE of holding $4,000 passengers at one
time. The steps of the cars are quite
on a level with the platform. Between
the loop tracks is an electric conductor,
or third rail, lying ready for the con-
templated change from steam to cur
rent. The idea of the management was
to provide for the motive power of the
future, be it steam, compressed air,
electricity, or what not, but the actual
placing of this third rail seems to indi-
cate that in railroad circles the electric
current is expected to be used. In fact
the Nantasket beach division of the N.
Y. N II. & H. railroad is already oper-
ated by electricity. In the New Haven
yards the same company is using sew
eral electric engines. and is said to con-
template equipping the entire road with
third rail conductors. At least this
station will be quite ready whenever
the road is so equipped.
The way out of the basement for the
trains is through two-track trench or
cut, lying on the left side of the main
tracks. The basement itself is not en-
tirely below the sidewalk In fact it is
depressed SO that the same number Of

people, old acquaintance, visit him
also; for he lived many years in
Brighton, where his father, Don Juan
of Bourbon, died. He speaks English
and takes great pains to make himself
, agreeable to visitors.
Whenever the king and queen of
Italy visit Venice, Don Carlos and his
family must leave tbs city, or at least
not be in evidence. Since he must be
received with royal honors or not at
all, he cannot be seen while they are
there, for King Humbert is friendly to
the young king of Spain, and etiquette
does not allow him to recognize the
pretender. When it is not convenient
for him to leave the city, Don Carlos
shuts himself up and makes RE
treat" as it were, until the Italian
royal family have departed.
Don Jaime of Bourbon, the only son
and heir of Don Carlos, was educated
at the Vienna Military academy, and
is at present serving as a captain in
the Russian army, practicing against
the day of revolution in Spain, per-
