toward favor with the emporer rather than with the empress; and have worked in public interests with the czar rather than in intrigues with the czarina.
 Prince Michael is the handsomest of the Cantacuzenes He is 2S years old, of stall wart build being as tall as the prince hus- band of Amelie Rives, and is broad should cred and athletic. He is typical Russian and was dipped in the icy tide at the age of three months, through which ordeal he lived, and by means of which the strongest of the Russian babies are made absolutely impenetrable to cold and fatigue.
 The prince was a school fellow of the young czar and immediately upon the lat ter's accession to tho throne he was prom ised an appointment The softest places in the Russian diplomatic service are the posts of Egypt and to Rome, the latter be- ing more desirable because of the religion, which is not diametrically opposed to the Church of Rome. It Is said that the only difference between the religion of Rome and that of Russia is that the Russians place the czar at the head of the pope. But the Russian priests deny this and assert that there are other theological differences. However that may be- the post of Rome is considered a very desirable one, and when Cantacuzene received his appoint ment he was considered a lucky leffow and a large farewell dinner was given to him by the principal club in St. Peters, burg.
 The Cantacuzene family is very wealthy one. It's estates are unencumber- ed and are so situated that they yield an income to every male member of the fami- ly sufficient for his support. Prince Mich aels income is said to be $10,0O0 of our dollars, a very large sum in Italian l1ras

the first sergeant accosts him, and raising his hand in salute, stands erect. "Well," says the lieutenant, recognizing the salute.
 The sergeant drops his hand by his side. Captain Clarke presents his compli- ments and requests that you take charge of the company tonight, as he is sick and Lieutenant Bell is in New York" "All right. Form the company, serg- cant.
 While this is being done Reginald lights the inevitable cigarette and walks towards the locker, where he keeps his sword ana belt.
 He buckles them on hurredly and takes a step forward, treading on someone's toe as he does so.
 "Oh, beg pardon' he says, looking up. "It was my tsupid carelessness," and them "Why Miss Myrtle. What in the name of all that's wonderful are you doing here to-night?"
 She does not notice his question, but says: "You combination of dudes and tin-horn soldiers are painfully inconsiderate, to say the least.
 Now, look here-"he begins furiously, but she interrupts him.
 Your soldiers brave are waiting for you"
 She is right, and with a glance at her, half pleading, half indignant, he is gone, while Myrtle, WnO mas come to the armOry with two of her girl friends to witness the drill, returns to her seat by them. She is more interested in tfs handsome young officer than she likes to admit to herself and she Is nearer to loving him than she realizes as he walks proudly to where the company, drawn up in line, awaits his pleasure.
 The first sergeant salutes.
 "The company is formed, sir he says '7ake your post" says Reginald, as he is handed a note by an urchin.
 Giving the command "at ease" he hur- riedly opens it and glances at the sigma ture. It is from the colonel commanding his regiment. He reads it hurriedly and calling his men to attention, reads it to them:

reached his majority being but twenty, stands six feet in his stocking feet and is muscularly and symmetrically formed.
 In addition he is the popular young sec- ond lieutenant of the local military com pany, for they all admire their handsome iunior commissioned officer. Outside the armory he is "Reggy,'' one of the boys but inside he is Lieutenant Marvin, and his commands, given always in a mellow. but vigorous tone, are promptly responded to.
 As he walked down town tonight, on his way to the regular weekly meeting Of his company, he is thinking-a trife bitterly. The thing in a nutshell is this: lie is heels over head in love with pretty Myrtle Denning, the acknowledged belle of the town, and, while she does not seem to be indifferent to him, she will not give him much hope. Not that she has positively refused him, for his courage has not yet warranted him in making a formal pro- posal

 Sykes is a burly thicklipped negro who has been incarcerated only to-day in the jail charged with the diabolieal murder of Mrs. Lee an old widow, living in the outskirts of the little city. There is noth- ing but circumstantial evidence against him, as there was no eyewitness, but that is very strong and the populice is intensely excited. There are open threats of lynch ing-in fact it is feared that it will be at- tempted tonight.

and Russian roubles, quite enough to keep the wolf away from the door of Julia, Princess of Cantacuzene.
 There has been a great deal Of gossip about the dover which Miss Grant will receive at her marriage. Her father, Brig adler General Frederick Dent Grant, is far from being rich man. He has only his officers pay to live upon and the income from certain small holdings. It is said that he received something from the sale of his late fathers book, in the prepara- ton of which he was very influential, but it is doubtful if his income exceeds $25,000 a year; and it is certain that he is not among the multi-milhonaires. His only son, Ulysses third, Is now at West Point, and his daughter is constantly with Mrs. Potter Palmer; but with no social obiiga- tions he has always been known as one of the honest poor public men of this coun- try.
 It is whispered that the dover which goes with Miss Grant will be bestowed by Potter Palmer and that the sum will be the interest upon S100,000. Of course set tlement is absolutely necessary, when 8 foreign marriage is arranged, and 1t is on- ly natural that the Palmers should settle 0 considerable amount upon the young woman whose past they have so carefully guided
 Another word with regard to the Can- tacuzenes. Years ago General Grant be- came acquainted with the father of the present prince and a warm friendship sprang up between them; something simi- lar to that which existed between the late general and Ii Hung Chang.
 When Mrs. Potter Palmer went abroad in the interest of the Worlds fair she took letters of introduction to the Cantacuzenes and was entertained by them in Russia. After her return a correspondence was kept up, and Mrs. Palmer has frequently quoted the ladies of the Cantacuzene fam. fly as being very delightful women. So Miss Grant has always been familiar with the family by name, and the sudden friend ship which sprang up between herself and the prince was one of longer growth than

 Prince Michael the Happy Man.

Newport is hoping for big wedding Mrs. Potter Palmer does not say that it shall not have one and it is expected that Beauleu, the Waldorf Astor villa which the Potter Ralmers have taken for the summer, will be the scene of the most magnificent wedding of the decade.
 Deaulieu has been occupied by the cal win s. Brice family for several seasons at the rental of $15OOO a season. Last year the Potter Palmers looked for a cottage that would be large enough for their en- tertainment, but could find nothing that quite suited them But this year they have taken Beaulieu off the hands of the Brlce family, who arc in mourning and will entertain layishly.
 Mrs. Potter Palmer, who Is responsible for Miss Grants career in society, has no daughter of her own and since the bring ing out of her niece four years ago, she has put her forward in society as though she were her own child, Miss Grants mother is the sister of Mrs. Palmer, who was before her marriage to the western millionaire in 1871, Miss Bertha Honore.

He is q dude. There is no denying that fact. He wears his curly, light brown hair parted in the middle with rigid precision, surmounted with a hobby skull cap. He smokes cigarettes necessarily, and carries an immense cane. In fact the only thing lacking is the fact that he does not wear glasses.
 But then Reginald Marvin is not the sickly, effeminate being that dudes usual- ly are. On the contrary he is a prominent member of the Acme Athletic club, and regular attendant at all it's meetings. He is, furthermore, one of its most efficient members. Reginald, or "Resgy," as the boys familiarly call him. has not quite

HOW DIFFERENT FROM TULSA.
A Good Word Even After Defeat
Asked 10 Souse Again.

The last OF the three games played
by the Mercaniile> and Ninita boys
resulted in a score of 10 in favor Of
the Ninita boys, who put up a good
game and played ball as they never
played before
Wednesday was the Mercantiles
day OF and the game put up by them
was not up TO its usual standard as
all the boys were too anxious TO get
the ball and not anxious enough to
make few good hits.
All in all the game was one Of the
best OF the season and the big crowd
OF 1000 people had a chance to see
some really good playing.
The crowd was very quiet and not
once was the game interrupted by
them. The umpires also proved very
satisfactory and their decisions were
always right.
The Ninita boys while in our city
have gained, by their good manners
and gentlemanly conduct, a whole
host of friends, all Of whom prOnOun-
ced the boys perfect gentlemen, and
who are happy If the Mercantiles must
lose 4 game that it goes to crowd OF
gentlemen and not gang Of tOughs
who win their games by foul means.
The Mercantiles, and IN fact all OF
our citizens put forth every effort to
entertain the boys while in our city,
and from the expressions made by the
Vinita boys they have surely had
most pleasant time.
Come again boys, you'll be treated
right.-AurOra Argus.
