The .KinS of Rome.n

What became Of Napoleon's son is a
question often asked. as little mention
is made in history of the young prince,
the desire of his fathers life, who was
born March 20, 1911, amid great rejoic-
ing in Paris and hailed as the king of
Rome" In January, 1914, Napoleon
embraced his wife and child for the
last time. and this really ended the
reign of the little king "who never saw
his kingdom" He was reared in the
Austrian court under the name of Duke
of Reichstadt and grew to be hand
some young fellow and quite brilliant
scholar. He had one short year of mil
itary life and then contracted pulmo-
nary disease, from which he died in his
twenty-second year. He worshiped
the memory of his father and always
spent the anniversary of his death, Ju-
ly %. in his own rooms He is buried
in the Carthusian monastery Of Wen
ma, which is the Austrian Westminster
abbey.

From the time we first got on board

Atlantic, had we heard means, cries
and rumblings coming from below, and
as soon as the captain and crew were

of, when there arose a hot blast as

overpowering In the hold were 300
human beings. gasping, struggling for
breath, dying. their bodies, limbs and
faces all expressing terrible suffering.
In their agenizing fight for life some
had torn or wounded themselves or
their neighbors dreadfully; some were
stiffened in the most unnatural posi-
tions

She Rode Free.

A woman who had come out of the
west, where she had been a COW girl on
a ranch, was boarding a car in this
city recently. She had just placed her
foot upon the step and was preparing
to take another step to the upper plat
form when, with furious step live
ly" the conductor pulled the strap.
The car jerked forward, and the west
ern woman swayed back for a minute
then just caught herself in time to pre-
vent a bad fall upon the cobbles.
She confronted the conductor with
angry eyes-eyes that had looked IN
disnnayed into those of mighty horned
monsters of the prairies.
What do you mean by starting the
car before l was on ~ she asked.

A Jolly Funeral.

An italian octorsnamed Louis Cor.
tusio, who died in the eighteenth cen.
fury, left some curious instructions as
to the manner Of his burial. This gen.
tleman, by his will, forbade his rela.
tons to weep at his funeral on pain OF
being disinherited and appointed him
or her who should laugh the longest
and loudest the principal heir and leg
atee. Not stitch Of black was to be
displayed either in the house in which
he should die or in the church in which
he should be buried. They were bott
to be strewn with flowers and green
boughs on the day of his funeral In.
stead Of the tolling of bells lively mu,
sic was to accompany his body to the
church, and 80 minstrels were to march
with the clergy sounding their flutes

girls clothed in green, to each of whom
the testator bequeathed a sum Of mon
ey for her dowry. Lastly, no one In
the procession was to wear black. AL
these orders were absolutely carried
into effect.-Household Words.

New York. s1aveship.

When New York city owned a slave.
ship is told in an article in Pearson's
Magazine. The greatest impetus was
given to the slave trade by the act of
parliament of 1854, which legalized
slavery in the North American colo
MES. This does not mean that slavery
was unknown in what is now the
United States before that time, be-
cause as early as 1920 Dutch man-of-
war landed and sold 20 African ne
groes at jamestown, Va.
In 1926 the West India company i'm
ported slaves from the West Indies to
New York city, then New Amsterdam.
The city itself owned shares in slave
ship, advanced money for its fitting
out and shared in the profits of its
voyages. This recognition and encour-
hgement may account for the astound-
ing fact that in 1850 slaves formed
one-sixth of the entire population of
New York. The general prevalence of
slavery is shown by the fact that at
this time there were 81 slaves in New
York's small suburb of Brooklyn, and
that in London itself there were resi-
dent 10000 slaves.
Slaves were at that time publicly
dealt in on the London exchange. No
wonder the traffic in human flesh was
a recognized commerce, and that in
III the English alone sent to Africa
1872 ships equipped for the trade and
with a carrying capacity of Alag
slaves per trip.

Growing Matches.

The Belgian artisan spends his lei
sure in a very curious manner. He
keeps a special cock for Growing, and
the bird which can outcrow its fellows
has reached the highest pinnacle of
perfection. The mode of operation is
to place the cages containing the roost-
ers in long rows, for 1t appears that
one bird sets the other off Growing. A
marker appointed by the organizers of
the show is told off for each bird, his
duty being to note carefully the num-
Der of crows for which it is responsible
in the same fashion as the laps are re-
corded in bicycle race. The custom
airy duration of the match is one hour,
the winner being the bird which scores
the highest number of crows in the al
lotted time. A great number of these
competitions have taken place In the
Liege district, and In some cases heavy
bets have been made on the result.

The First EARLY Evening Paper

The plan of this Paper not being
generally known, the Proprietors most
respectfully take the Liberty of sub
hitting the following Sketch of it to
the perusal of the Public.
The Noon Gazette will be regularly
published every day at Twelve o'Clock
and will contain all the actual news OF
the Nine Morning Papers. cautiously
and faithfully selected from them. Ev.
cry Species of Misinformation and I'm.
truth will be guarded against with the
utmost care, and the Communication
of real authenticated Intelligence only
will ever be the grand Object of this
Print.
Besides the Advantage of having all
the News of the Nine Morning Papers
comprized in one, the Noon Gazette
will contain a Postscript with every
Article of important Intelligence that
may arise on the Morning of its publ
cation, so that as well as a universal
Morning Paper, this Print will be
found little, If at all, inferior to any
Evening Publication.-From The Noon

In an air in the opera of Norma
the theatrical censor went so far as tt
cancel the word liberia" liberty and
substitute for it the word "lealta'
loyalty. - Signor Ronconi, the
famous baritone and a great public ia.
vorite, having, in the ardor of his role
forgotten the above mentioned emenda
ton, was imprisoned for three days In
order to refresh his memory.
Not long after, singing the line in the
"Elisir d'Amore" describing how q
peasant enlisted, 'Vende la liberia, 81
fe soldato" Gle sold his liberty to be q
SOLDIER, he waggishly altered 1t to
"Vende la lealta, 81 fe soldato." This
variation in the text was received with
lively applause by the public, who al
ways warmly welcomed anything that
savored of political opposition.
The next day the poor singer was
summoned 10y the head Of the police to
receive a reprimand for having said
that loyalty could be Sold" to which
Ronconi replied by observing that a
few days before he had been taught in

Belaying His Jaws.

Shark stories, with some reason, are
commonly received with incredulity. A
well authenticated anecdote, however,
Is told of DR.. Frederic Hill, an English
surgeon of distinction.
A man fell overheard in the Indian
ocean and almost into a sharks mouth.
Hill. who was standing close to the
rail. grabbed Delaying pin and with
out hesitation jumped to save the
sailor.
The great brute was just turning on
his back to bite, when Hill drove the
Delaying pin right through both jaws.
Both men were got on board again un-
harmed.
Perhaps that fellow won't want an
other toothpick. Has any one got a
clean shirt to lend? This was my last"
were the only words of the rescuer.

DANGEROUS Etiauette.

Old world privilege and restriction
reign supreme in Spain, where there is
a law that no subject shall touch the
person of the king or queen.
Alfonso XIII nearly suffered a Sc
we're fall from this rule in his child
hood. An aunt of his made him a pres
ent of swing. When he used 1t for
the first time, the motion frightened
him, and he began to cry, whereupon a
lackey lifted him quietly out Of it and
so, no doubt, preserved him from fall
ing.
The breach of etiquette, however,
was fragrant and dreadful. The queen
was obliged to punish it by dismissing
the man from his post. At the same
time she showed her real feelings on
the subject by appointing him imme-
diately to another and better place in
the royal household.
In another case queen of Spain
nearly lost her life in a dreadful way
owing to this peculiar rule. She had
been thrown when out riding, and, her
foot catching in the stirrup, she was
dragged. Her escort would not risk
interference, and she would have been
dashed to pieces but for the heroic in
terposition of a young man who stop
ped the horse and released her from
her dangerous position.
AS soon as they saw she was safe
her escort turned to arrest the traitor
who had dared to touch the queens
foot, but he was not to be seen. Know
ing well the penalty de had incurred
he made off at once, fed for his life
and did not stop until he had crossed
the frontier.

Straw Hor.esboes

Straw is put to strange uses in ia
pan. Most Of the horses are shod with
straw. Even the clumsiest of cart
horses wear straw shoes. In their
case the shoes are tied around the
ankles with straw rope and are made
Of the ordinary rice straw, braided so
that they form sole for the foot about
half an inch thick. These soles cost
about half penny per pair, and when
they are worn out they are thrown
away. Every cart has stock of fresh
new shoes tied to the horse or to the
front of the cart, and in Japan 1t was
formerly the custom to measure dis
lance largely by the number Of horse
shoes it took to cover the distance. So
many horseshoes made a days jour-
ney, and the average shoe lasted for
about eight miles of travel.

Not long ago very fat spaniel was
introduced into the house where a fox
terrier had always been the master.
The latter was told, however, to be-
have well to the newcomer and not to
bully him. So the two seemed fairly
friendly and in the end got in the habit
of taking short rambles together.
However, the fox terrier was evident
ly of thoughtful disposition and on
one occasion came across a bank, or
wall, which was easy enough to leap
off, but there was greater difficulty in
returning. The fox terrier sprang
down the bank and enticed his heavy
companion to follow, with the result
that the latter could not get back, while
the former, by reason of his greater ac-
tivity, was easily able to do.
Now the terrier saw his opportunity,
returned home and cruelty left his COM
panion lamenting. Never did the for
mer seem happier or gayer than on
that day when he had once more the
sole run Of the house, and he sulked
when later on the spaniel had been
found, assisted up the wall and brought
home
Since then the fox terrier has repeat
eddy got the spaniel down the same
place, with the usual result, and seems
to glory in his mischievous act. Wheth-
er the 'fat dog" will learn to avoid
temptation to such ramble remains to
be seen.-Buffalo News.

How Mask. Are Made.

Paper masks are made by doubling
one sheet of a specially prepared pa
per, wetting it and holding it by hand
over face form. 1t is then dried by
artificial heat. Openings are cut for
eyes, nose and mouth, and it is painted
and decorated by hand as desired.
Wire masks are made by stamping a
piece of wire netting about a foot
square over face mold in a large ma
chine, inclosing the rough wire edges
in a narrow strip of lead. Then it is
painted. The painting is done by hand
in oil colors.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
