Prince George OF Greece, who is with
out a doubt the strongest royal per-

him TO double up a poker as means
of demonstrating his muscular power.
On one occasion, by means of patent
arrangement, he raised nearly shout
der high at the same moment over 20
members Of his family including, we
believe. the Princess of Wales her
self. Prince George Of Greece is no
mean successor to the Russian en-
peror. He, too, has made good use of
his strength on more occasions than
one. 1t is his passion to visit exhibit
tions Of strength and wrestling
matches incognito, and there take part
with less aristocratic pugilists and
men of muscle in the various encoun-
ters. On one occasion he was attack
ed in a low district of Athens by a
party of fierce rOughs who meant his

quite able to defend himself against
the odds, but even managed to put
the whole band to flight by judicious

WAYS OF TURKISH CENSORS.
Violation of Their Rules Brings the
Most Exemplary Punishmeut.

It is we'll for those having business
with the Turks to have a good under
standing of the laws and regulations
in force in the sultan's domain if they
would avoid trouble. An honest Ger
man merchant met with a sad adVen-
ture a few weeks ago on account or
something which he had not dreamed
of-violating the laws of the Turkish
censor. The German was in the porce-
lain business, and the only thing that
he ever thought of writing was entries
in his ledger. But he got an order
from a Turkish merchant for 25,0OO
coffee cups. and he filed it, and
straighway he became violator OF
literary laws He had packed up the
coffee cups in old German newspapers,
and that settled it, The Turkish CEN
sor seized the whole shipment. He in
sisted on reading each newspaper, and
only after he had become convinced
that there was neither intention nor
danger of smuggling insults of the
sultan or of his harem into the coun-
try of the prophet was the shipment re-
leased. Now the German is wonder
ing whether. if he packs his next ship
ment in straw. the Turkish censor will
hold it up as being reflection on his
mental furniture. Chicago Chronicle.
