Nothing has been heard of Princess
Chimay for long time, but probably
this is due to the fact that her do
nestle troubles are now at an end, and
that her husband has forgiven her for
her indiscreet adventures with the
Hungarian gypsy Rigo. The prince and
princess are now in Paris, and the
last that was heard of the violinist
Rigo was to the effect that he was
somewhere In Africa. Photographs of
the princess are no longer on sale
either In Paris or Vienna, and big
sums are consequently offered fer the
picture Of her as she appeared on the
Partisan variety stage.

A. r. Julian was preacher at Chad
ron, Neb., three years ago. In the es-
timation Of his flock he was doing
good work, but was unable to reach
his own ideal Of what pastor should
be. Therefore he bought newspaper.
which he ran in vigorous, clean style
for over two years. And now, feeling
confident that his editorial experience
has left him better fitted for pulpit
eering, he has sold his paper and will
re-enter the ministry.

SOME FRISKY kids"

Laramie has a number of small boys
they recognize in themselves far ore
importance than do their parents or
the public. The schools are not far
enough advanced to teach them any
more, the family household is not con-
Quoted exactly to their liking and they
are not given the freedom which their
enlightenment warrants.
Yesterday two of these kids, aged
about IL and IA respectively decided
that a wider field was needed by them
and concluded that Denver would be
about the proper place to let their light
shine forth. Accordingly they arose be,
fore the sum-. gathered together a few
old clothes and with their packs on
their backs staretd for the Colorado
o'clock in the morning. After walking
about four of the 100 miles first one
began to show signs of weakness and
then the other, until finally they found
themselves homeward bound. They ar
rived at their homes about 8 o'clock
in the morning, cold, tired and hungry
enough to clear out an ordinary cup
board. The dust and dirt which had &C
cumulated on their, faces gave their
"physiog." the appearance of the foot
hills they had just passed through, as
the warm tears had cut ''gullies'
through the sand" 1t is safe to say
the next time they run away they will
stay at home.
There are also some boys about iowa.
even older than these youngsters, who
have come to the conclusion they are
marksmen and nearly every night they
may be heard out on the streets or in
the alleys shooting cats and doing 9th
er practice work with 90 rifles and re,
volvers. This is dangerous work and
even If they do not injure anyone they
may get the wrong cat some of these
evenings and as their identity is
known they may have something to re.
greet.

JEFFRIES-SHARKEY

The coming of the Jeffries- Sharkey
pictures will no doubt tend to revive
tie discussion as to the merits of the
decision in the great fistic encounter
between the two men. There is one
thing certain, these are the only real
pictures and they give the entire TWEEN
ty-five rounds. After they have been
seen, people will be able to decide fol-
themselves whether Referee siler's de,
cision was a robbery or not. The pic
lures are pronounced the best repro
auctions ever made. They are exceed
ingly clear; there is none of that sud
den jumping from one position to an
other, and the figures and details are
depicted with fidelity. The pictures tell
the story, it is said, in a graphic and
thrilling manner They show when
either of the fighters or the referee has
something to say-in protest of what
ever may be the cause-and the play OF
the muscles. feints, leads, counters and
jabs are all plainly portrayed. One can
see the blows that brought blood and
the resultant flow of "claret." Sharkey
gets the same hard wollop in the ear
as he got in Coney Island and the bat
tie takes on the same sanguinary as
poets Immediately following, and JEFF
fries gets the same smash in the nose
that caused him to bleed freely.
The pictures will be shown at Man
ager opera house tomorrow night.
