brother James II. The latter was such
n dismal failure as ruler that he was
deposed, his daughter Mary and her
Nassau husband, William, succeeding
to the throne, although his sister Hen
rietta Anne, seventh child of Charles
l., was next in line of succession. 1t is
from this sister that Princess Mary,
the present queen of the Jacobites, is
directly descended.
Princess Mary, who, in the course of
time, will be queen of Bavaria, has no
unfriendly feelings toward the 'usurp-
ing" Victoria. She is happy wife ard
mother, and occupies one of the pret-
tiest palaces in Munich, a city poted
for its magnificent public buildings.

government is denounced for plunging
the country into war with the South
African republic.
IIc,e at home the Jacobite agitation
is looked upon as a joke, but as some of
its leaders have succeeded in cnlisting
the services of two or three otherwise
sane American correspondents in their
agitation ii might be well to state that
the "rightful' queen of the Stuart con-
tingcnt is a charming German prin-
cess who takes but little stock in the
pronounciamentos of her deluded fol-
lowers.
Queen Mary ". of the Jacobites is
Princess Mary Theresa, wife OF Prince
Ludwig, heir presumptive to the
throne of Bavaria. She was born an
archduChess of the ancient house of
Austria -Es te- Modena. She is a direct
aeccndant of Mary Stuart, James I.
and the Inflated Charles J., who was
2ecapitated by order of Oliver Crom-
wei. After the collapse of the lord

to enter into any sort of "entangling
alliances" and conspiracies. The pres
ent king of Bavaria, Otto, is crazy as
a March hare; the prince regent of the
kingdom, Luitpold, is a very old man,
and it is only a question % q few
months when her huSbanS Prince
Ludwig, will be ruler OF the s}avarian
kingdom and the head of the Wttels-
bach family, one of the oldest and most
distinguished of royal houses.
The London legitimists claim that
the princess is ready to stand up for
her rights" whenever good opportu-
nifty shall arrive; but as she has a sensi-
BILE husband and is surrounded by adj
visers who care more for the welfare
of the house of Bavaria than the inter-
ests of n band of political fanatics in
a foreign land, it is safe to presume
that the call for Jacobite uprising
will not be issued in our day. At any
rate, the Hanoveranians who now
share the spoils of British royalty do
not seem to be quaking in their boots.

keep the property intact as kind Of
historical charge, purchased it for S15,-
coo and has just erected brass tablet
over the main entrance setting forth
the fact that the house had been
founded by the hero of Tippecanoe.
How long the old property will thus
be preserved for the public is, of
course hard to tell; but a movement
is now on foot to have some society or
other take charge of it. 1t has been
suggested that the Daughters of the
Revolution enter into negotiations
with Mrs. Hall for the purpose Of OBJ
tanning control of the house and re-
furnishing its empty rooms. 1t is be-
lieved that in the course of time it
might again become an inspiration to
patriotic pilgrims, as it was back in

Moreledge, an actor, who last winter
held up" two restaurants and a sa-
loon in the center of the business dis
trict single-handed, in order to get
money sufficient to put his company
on the road, was found guilty in the
circuit court here Friday and SEN
fenced to 25 years in the pententiary.
His career, as portrayed by witnesses
in this case, showed him to be a ver-
liable Mulberry Sellers"
He was one of the original promo
ters of the Topolobompo cooperative
colonization scheme and he promoted
a scheme to dam the Missouri river
at Bismarck, S. d., and to divert the
entire flow of water into a gigantic
ditch that would flow southward
through Nebraska and Kansas and
have lateral bitches that would irri-
gate the whole western part of the
state. There's millions in it," read
letters written years ago by More
ledge and which were presented in
court yesterday by his attorney in an
effort to prove the prisoners insan-
ity.
Another scheme projected by More
ledge was to revive the Ancient Order
of Magic, and still another was that
to build big cooperative apartment
house that would cover several blocks.
James y. Finlay, who was Indian
agent in Pine Ridge, S. d., in 1850,
during the uprising of the Sioux In
dians there, testified about how
Moreledge made big" money there.
Moreledgc was there with d photo
graphing outfit. After the battle of
Wounded Knee, Gen. Brooke issued an
order that no one on the agency
should go beyond certain line, be-
cause the Indians were in great num-
bers and very bloodthirsty. That
night Moreledge was missed and a
search was made for him. The next
morning he came into camp. He had
spent the night on the battlefield of
Wounded Knee, taking fiashlight pho
tographs of the dead soldiers and In
dians, and he afterward had these
pictures copyrighted and made a
great deal of money selling them.
Gen. Brooke had to Danish him from
the agency because of his recklessness
and disregard of orders.

The phlegmatic Dom Paul Kruger

great reputation as a joker among his
people in the Transvaal. His humor,
however, tends toward the practical
order. Here is an instances Half a
dozen back-country Beers had come to
Pretoria to see the sights, and, with
characteristic familiarity, paid the
President visit during his early cof-
fee drinking hour. Later they were
shown over the Government build
ings by the President in person. In
one of the rooms an electric lamp was
burning, and as they were passing
out Dom Paul, with his hand on the
button, asked them to blow it out
from where they stood. Then one
after another drew a deep breath,
blew out his cheeks and sent out
tremendous puff, but all in vain; the
light did not even vince. Then the
President babe them look at him, and,
putting out his cheeks, gave a strong
blast, at the same time slyly turning
off the current. The visitors were
amazed, and as they left the building,
one who had been more observant
than the rest remarked: loom Paul

energy that the Siberian Regiment
