Himself Arrested.

Nel ,, Tribune: A Philadelphia real e. nan, when going through a vacant house the other evening to see that all was well, heard a slight noise behind him. Turning slightly, he saw the form of man. As the broker was not armed, he did not like the idea of meeting a burglar in com at and, besides, he is very timid, so he rushed to the door and fumbled with the lock; all the time yelling at the top of his lungs. When he had got the door opened he looked back, and then saw that the Burglar" was really his own reflection in the large drawing-room mirror He had no sooner made this discovery than he was seized by two policemen, who were attracted by his screams, and it took nearly a half hour for him to explain that he was not a house breaker himself

pucat and Other coronets.

The coronet of a duke consists Of alternate crosses and leaves, the leaves being a representation of the leaves of the parsley plant. The princes of the
 royal blood also wear similar crown. The state headgear of a marquis con sists of diadem surrounded by flow CTS and pearls placed alternately. An earl, however, has neither flowers nor leaves surmounting his circlet, but only points rising each with pearl on the top. A viscount has neither flow CTS nor points, but only the plain cir clet adorned with pearls, which, re gardless of number, are placed on the crown itself. baron has only six pearls on the golden border, not raised, to distinguish him from an earl, and the number of pearls render his dia- dem distinct from that of yiscount.

With the rise of the camera and the increasing desire of the people to see what they are reading about, new and great industry has sprung up in tie United States The dimensions of that part of the business which devotes itself to securing cures of public men and events are marvellous. Ten years ago worse than poor wood cuts constituted the only means Of placing before the reader the idea of the scene transpiring. To give faiut idea of the change 1t may be remarked that at the White House the other day, when the final ceremony of clos ing the war with Spain took place. no less than three leading photog- raphers were present. More, to the scandal of Minister Cambon and his fellow officials, the whole matter was delayed some minutes because the men at the machines were unable to prop erly adjust their screens. It must not be understood that the president ac- tually sat with a pen in his hand or that Cambon was held in the act of signing it to let the photographers catch up. But, nevertheless, the whole affair was delayed some time in order that the American people might see just what was happening.
 It IS common thing nowadays for the big magazines and newspapers to send expert photographers to Wash 1ngton for the express purpose of talk ing a series of snap shots of promi- nent United States senators and repre- sentatives and other celebrities of the national capital At the same time standard views of the public build ings, officers of the president and the various cabinet officers are taken in stock for use as future occasions may require. h fact, the library of a modern newspaper is supposed to con tain a photograph of practically every man and woman of prominence in this country, Europe, Asia and Africa, as well as special pictures of foreign capitals and others representing spe- cial views of private life at home and abroad
 To a woman belonged the honor of being the pioneer of this work. Miss Frances Benjamin Johnson, of Wash ington, really began the business of developing photographs to such a state of perfection and completeness as to have them used in place of pen and ink sketches. Her pictures were first used in magazines as lilustra- tions for descriptive stories about ten or twelve years ago, and since then she has steadily improved in her crt until she Is now recognized as prob ably the best amateur photographer of portraits and interior house views in Washington. Her. skill is perfected to such high degree that when but one photographer is to be present during an important government function she is usually selected.

II mean that ] once heard, many

These friends treated the matter ~
. jest. but there is really sense and
truth in the saying that beauty in later
life, in either man or woman, is de-
pendent upon character far more than
upon form or color. Ii is common ex-
p~rience for young woman TO say:
How fine looking Mrs. Is. She
must have been beautiful girl." And
to hear the reply: NO. she was not
nearly so good looking in her youth as
she Is now. Her beauty has developed
with her years" Add il may have been
