A ROMANCE FROM AFRICA.

The story Of . Trsssurs-Ingsnious ana
Nay BE True.
Englishmen are pedatory creatures.
and the London papers do not hesitate
to express annoyance because the expe-
dictionary force recently sent against
King Prempeh found at Coomassie
only a meager number Of gold orna-
ments, and hollow ones at that, say0
the New York Times. The value Of the
loot taken from the royal palace" was
only about $4,000 and made a poor
showing when exhibited in London, AZ
compared with the results Of ore 'ous
raids. Now a correspondent writing
from Accra tells story which II true
"a very large "lf"-will make the
British officers wish they had not left
the Ashanti capital quite 30 soon. He
says: Some years ago slave girl OF
SURPRISING beauty-of the Ashanti type
bein entendu-had the misfortune to
attract the tickle fancy of chief,
whose head wife tolerated no rivalry.
To reproach q husband 10 generally
useless; in Coomassie 1t 10 dangerous.
The lady. wise in her generation, fore
bore to risk her head, but sent for the
executloner and caused the ears and
lips Of the too fascinating maiden to be
removed. rendering her such an object
as can only be seen in savage king
doms. History does not say II the ex-
pedient answered the purpose OF re-
storing the chiefs wandering affections
to their rightful owner, but the slave
girl developed, not unnaturally, into
a woman with an undying thirst
for revenge. Lately she sought an
audience with the governor, and
she informed him that the real
treasure Of the Ashantis lies buried
some fifty feet below the soil, in dis
used shaft Of mine near Coomassie.
and readily undertook to point out the
spot. Digging is being vigorously car
ried on. already more than fourth OF
the depth has been cleared, and should
the treasure amount to anything like
the rumored value, the cost of the ex-
petition will be fully betrayed, making
the Ashanti war record one. as not
only bloodless. but free Of COST"

SOME WORLDLY WISE SUGGES
TONS.
FOR WON EN-

Always hold your skirts in the left
hand. 1t leaves your right hand free
to hold your purse.
In walking along crowded street
keep to the left. The men always keep
to the right. You may thus run up
against many new faces.
Talk to your women friends just az
long as you want to on the platform OF
the street car before getting of. All
the world loves to hear woman talk, and
it doesn't mind being kept waiting in
the least.
FOR MEN.
Should nice girl at smart dance
cay to you: "Come! Let's sit on the
stairs,' don't let the glamour OF the
drawing room distract you. Do as the
nice girl bids. The stairs lead from one
story to another-or else am no Kip.

Fire Was AutomaticnII, E,ttngui.hed

a small blaze occurred in the basement
of the War. State and Navy building the
other day which, if 1t had not been oppor-
timely checked might have led to serious
consequences in the big government build
ing. The blaze started in the paper vault,
under The front entrance facing on Penn
sylvania avenue, and is thought to have
resulted from a lighted cigarette stub.
Fort unately, however. Commander Baird.
In charge Of the buildings. recently put in
an automatic device for putting out fires,
and as soon as this blaze got well under
way the device opened a fire plug which
drenched the burning piles OF paper and
soon reduced the blaze to a smolderng
debris, which was readily taken care of.
