OF the German Emperor, which he has en-
joyed for many years, and to the influence of his
wife, who has been popular with the Royal
household of Germany since the present EN-
perOr ascenGed the throne. She is the daughter
of a New-YOrk grocer who came to the metropo-
lis from Connecticut. When he died his widow
and his daughter, Mary Esther Lee, went to
live in Stuttgart The daughter was an attrac-
tive young woman and gained access to the
best society there. In Stuttgart she met
Prince Frederick of Schleswig-H -Holstein, who re-
nounced his title to marry her. This was
in 1864. The Prince was seventy years
old and his bride was twenty-siX. They made
trip to the Holy Land, and there, six months
after the marriage the Prince died, leaving a
fortune to the young widow OF about 81 100000
Soon after the death OF Prince Frederick the
Emperor of Austria made his widow a Princess
in her rgh' under the title of Princess Won
NOer. From that time she became a conspc-
uous figure in Europe, but in political rather
than social circles. She is credited with having
brought about the marriage between the Ger
man Emperor who then Prince William of
Prussia, with the Princess Augusta Victoria
her grand niece by her first marriage, in the
face of the protestations of the young Princes
mother The Princess Won NOer became the
Countess Won Wadersee two years after the
death of her first husband. She is six years
younger than the Field Marshal, and despite
her snowy hair she is still considered a beauti-
full woman.

had it's origin as far as the English navy is con-
cerned with the cross. but in this country,
where we still salute the quarterback, the salute
is intended for the flag and for the officer. The
sailor salutes instinctively when he reaches the
quarterback and the officer returns the salute
When the man sees officer he salutes just

IMPORTANCE OF PERSONAL MUSTER
The personal muster is also a survival of old
customs in the United States Navy, but it is
considered necessary. 1t insures correct rating
for the crew, and it gives the officers an oppor-
tunity to become acquainted with the men
There is no chalk circle for our men, but once a
month the men are compelled to appear on deck,
and when the clerk calls their names, to step
from the ranks and give their rating. On my
ship the ceremony is simple. In response 10 the
calling of John Smith a man steps forth, says,
First class fireman. sir salutes and falls In
line and files past. On some ships the com
manding officers have the men appear IN groups
-6remen engineers, first class seamen, etc.
each by themselves But the personal muster is
not unnecessary, for although the books show
the names they do not give the mans features
and he NAV be rated wrongly on them.
..PiDing the sides is also an old custom
which is still in vogue, despite the fact that
officers go aboard and leave ship by stairway.
When a guard of marines receives an officer the
mining is dispensed with but when there are no
marines to give the boarding or departing ofhcer

there shall be eight boys for an officer who is
entitled to a fifteen gun salute. six boys for an
officer entitled to eleven guns, four boys FOR a

senior officers entering boats last still prevails.

the result that the upper part of the glass fell

Short Line Earnings.

Salt Lake Herald says: The earn
ings of the Oregon Short Line for
the month of February, as issued
by Auditor F. w. Hills yesterday,
show total increase in comparison
with the same month of a year ago
to the amount of $40, COS, l6, the
figures for these months being
1858, 1880 and $48I, 1904 re-
spectively.
The big strides which the Short
Line has been making lately toward
becoming a prime factor among the
western roads can readily be grasp
ed when a review of the business of
the past eight months is taken into
consideration. During that period
the estimated earnings of the road
have reached the handsome figure
of SIS, 623, o8O.79, against that Of
81, 075, 1904 between July ], 1898
and Feb. %, 1899, or gain of
$647, 43O. S8. Present indications
still point to further big gains as
the season progresses.

The Two Points of View.

Two walking advertisements OF O
cheap clothing house met on Broad
way the other day. The one was
dressed as q court jester. He walked
with mincIng step down the middle OF
the street, balancing his staff on his
thumb and seeking to attract attention
by his comical attitudes. The other
was plain Sandwich man." His
somewhat dwarfed. body was boxed
in almost to his feet by the swinging
boards on which the words Of the ad-
vertisement were stamped. He stood
alone on the curb us the jester passed.
Their eyes met. No look of recogni-
tion came to them.
But in the lines about their mouths
their feelings toward each other were
expressed. The jester seemed to say:
81 pity you, Mr.. Sandwich man! You
are sohumble and commonplace and in.
significant. attract the crowd" The
look on the face Of the sandwich man"
was clearly translated. 1t was that

Device to Save the Swarm.

had varied experience as to saving
the escaped or escaping swarms. Some
are: sure to get away the best one can

a piece of board, say 10 or 12 inches
square, bore nine or ten inch holes in
it, and in each Of these holes stick q
corncob.. Get light stick Id to IL feet
long, insert one end in this board, and
when your bees swarm elevate these
cobs. and carry 1t around among the
bees where they seem to be thickest,
and they are quite sure to settle on
them. Then you have only to empty
them down before the already prepared
hive. You see, this saves climbing into
trees, cutting of limbs and lowering
them down, which needs a careful
hand. and even then, for one cause or
sanother, they are Jared OFF, and the
work has to be done over. This scheme
Hsimplfhes matters, is very practical, is

This DOG Died Heartbroksn.

"Toots," the beautiful black collie
dog, whose young master. Albert
Serle Johan, ended his life three
weeks ago, at Evansville, Ind, be-
cause he thought his sweetheart had
fitted him, Is dead Of broken heart.
After the young mans body had been
buried the dog was kept closely ut
home, and when allowed to leave
would dejectedly make the rounds OF
the haunts of his master when alive.
Charles Johan, the dead boys father,
tried to carry out his sons last re-
quest to "be good to Toots,' but the
collie became more llstless each day.
until one day last week he went out
in the back yard, where he used to
romp with his master, and, turning his
sharp muzzle skyward, he gave. vent
to weird, dismal half-bark and half
cry, and dropped over dead in the
grass-Indlanapolis Sentinel.

Improving Hard Soil.

In the field which sowed to clover,
there was q. corner that was so dry
and such stiff clay that 1t would not
produce either grass or grain. When.
ever it got little dry it would become
SO hard that no crop would grow on 1t.
i used it for setting my corn stover
on last spring and there were few
shatterings left on it in the spring.
When 1 sowed my clover I scattered
seed over that patch, as well as the
other part of the field. noticed that
the clover grew better there than on
any other part of the field. I am of
the opinion that such land may be
made to yield good crops by scatter
ing q thin coating of straw Of other
rough fodder on it and sowing to
clover. The mulch will hold moisture
sufficient to grow clover, and the
clover crop and tie mulch are both in
clined to loosen the soil and cause 1t
to hold moisture afterwards.-A. ].
