King.

1t is King that the assassin's hand
has struck down at Mona, King who
in a reign of twenty-five trying years
never failed in any kindly quality. Fear
less in the face of disease as on the battle
field, just, nerciful a fosterer of the arts
of learning, placing the welfare of Italy
above the fortunes Of his house, Hum.
bert |. deserved even more than his re-
markable father the surname, il re ga
lantuomo. In the breaking down Of
regulations of the leaders of all political
parties the people of Italy have come to
look upon their King as the one man
who stood for something stable and
who might possibly extricate them from
their difficulties.
Humberts task was a thankless one,
with little promise of glory. Coming to
the throne when the first flush of enthu-
siasm over a united Italy was fading
and the material losses were becoming
evident as the price which the former
independent states had paid for union
overshadowed by the fame of his father
and of the other makers of the new Italy,
Humbert l. was obliged to guide his
country through its bitter and costly
experience of how hard it is to undo the
wrongs and omissions of centuries in a
few short years. AS to the wisdom of

rIr. Davis's Impressions of President
Kruger.

Ny first meeting with President Kruger
was very brief, and l learned little from it
of him then which has not been made ia
miiar to every one. Mr.. Rietz brought
me to his house and we sat on his porch,
he loading and reloading his cavernous
pipe the while and staring out into the
street. The thing that impressed me first
was that in spite of his many years, his
great bulk and height gave you All i'm
preston Of strength and power which
was increased by the force he was able to
put into his abrupt gestures. He gesti-
culated awkwardly but with the vigor
of a young man, throwing out his arm
as though he were pitching quot, and
opening his great fingers and clenching
them again i'll menacing fist, with
which he struck upon his knee. When he
spoke he looked neither at the State Sec
rotary nor at me- but out into the street,
and when he did look at one, his eyes
held no expression, but were like those in
Jade idol. His whole face, chiefly, |
think, because of the eyes, was like
heavy waxen mask. In speaking his
lips moved and most violently, but every
other feature of his face remained abso.
lutely set In his ears he wore little gold
rings, and his eyes, which were red and
scared with some disease, were pro-
tected from the light by great gold
trimmed spectacles of dark glass with
wire screens.
So many men had come to see him and
to ask him to talk on a subject for which
the day for talk was past, that he had
grown properly weary of it all, and be-
fore could ask him for the particular in
formation hoped to obtain, he said, 81
say what l have said before, we are
fighting for our independence" He kept
repeating this stubbornly several times,
and then more specifically saying, They
are two hundred thousand, we are thr-

nary Cruy.

A pretty little legend belongs to the
family of Lord Fingall. One of the most
distinguished members was Sir Thomas
Plunkett, Lord Chief Justice of the King S
Bench in Ireland. While a student he
was walking one day in the Temple Gar
dens and saw a beautiful girl washing
clothes in the river Thames and singing
a plaintive Irish song. He recognized it
as "The Lament of Mary Cruy' and re-
called the fact that the wife and daugh-
ter of Sir Christopher Cruy, of Rath-
more had been deprived of their estates
by relatives after the death of Sir Chris
topher. 1t occurred to young Plunkett
that the singer might be the daughter,
and he asked her if she were Mary Cruy.
She answered affirmatively, and the
student impulsively offered his services to
regain the lost property. He was sue
cesstul, and eventually the clever and gen.
erous lawyer married the heiress whose
rights he had regained.

The Dandelion Not a Pest.

Writing of the dandelion, which Henry
Ward Beecher named. "The Golden
Prophet" and which James Russell
Lowell apostrophized as Dear common
wayside flower" the writer of the Lowell
Citizens "Stories of the Street" says:
"Some one said the dandelion was an
ugly pest. Perhaps it is. l wonder if he
ever studied the pest; il he noted the in
telligence it has, or the use it serves.
First comes the flower with its wonder
full ingenuity and blooms for the day.
Then what happens? The flower closes
and droops to the ground where the
seed is terminated. Meanwhile the stem
is growing and then it slowly rises until
in tops the grass. Then the sepals fall
and the fluffy ball is disclosed in all it's
downy beauty, Then the wind sweeps
it bare and it's mission is performed.
Pest! 1t is not so much of pest when
it is served in a cool salad or as a plate
OF greens; or did you ever relish drink
of dandelion beer, or cup of dandelion
coffee? 1t is an article of food and were
it eaten more plentifully, it would not be
the pest it is"

The Italian Anarchists.

President Carnot of France was killed
by an Italian anarchist at Lyons on Sun
day, June "a, 1894.
The Empress Elizabeth of Austria was
killed by an Italian anarchist in Geneva
on Saturday, September TO- 1898.
Humbert, King of Italy, was killed by
an Italian anarchist at Mona on Sun
day, July 20, 1900.
Two of the most excellent rulers of Eu-
rope, and the admirable and inoffensive
Austrian Empress have fallen as victims
OF this society of Italian anarchists with
IN six years. The murderers 60 about
their work deliberately and the man who
IS to kill king or the president OF a re-
public is selected by lot.
1t they are allowed to go on with their
terrible work they will doubtless kill all
the most eminent rulers of the world.
Fou' or FIVE more victims during the next
ten years will require them to kill the
German Emperor, the Prince of Wales,
the Gar of Russia, and the Emperor of
Austria. 1t is evident that no royal or
imperial life is even fair insurance risk,
with such a society in successful opera
ton.
The Italian society of murderers
seems to be a we'll organized body and to
do its business in very business-like
way. 1t has been customary heretofore
to detect and punish the members ofsuch
societies. 1t is about time to have the
proper methods taken to deal with the
organized anarchists of Italy. Money
Will buy their secrets and law making

with death would tend to diminish their

his course, and whether greater man
might not have found better way,
opinions must differ; they cannot as to
his whole-soulcd devotion to his country
and his task. One brave act, as knight
ly deed as history records, he was able
to do. When Naples went wild with
superstitious terror in the cholera epidem-
ic of 1884, King Humbert went
staight to the city and side by side with
Cardinal Sanfelice, exposed himself to
the plague in the hospitals and in the
foulest slums, day after day, till the peo-
pie took heart again. That Italians can
never forget. :
Whatever motiveimpelled his wretched
murderer to slay, his act has deprived
Italy of her main stay. 1t will be long
before she can give her new King the
confidence that she justly gave King

Thew Saw TennySOn.

A new story-new, that is, to the pub
lic-is told in recently published diary
by Sir Mountstuart E. Grant Duff. A
party of Americans, he writes, once went
to Freshwater to see Tennyson, but, as
might have been expected, were refused
an audience. AS they departed discon-
solately, they encountered Mrs. Cameron,
a friend of the laureate and expressed
their disappointment. Come with me, "
she said, and took them directly to the
poet, whom she addressed thus; "Alfred,
these American ladies and gentlemen
have crossed the Atlantic to see the great
British lion, but have found only a bear!"
The laureate could not resist that, and
they had pleasant fifteen minutes visit.

$1,043,525,117. You doubtless under
stand how these estimates are made, viz
by adding each year the output of the
minis and the imports of domestic coin,
and by substracting each year the ex-
ports OF domestic coin, the amount re-
coined and an estimated amount for the
consumption in the arts and manu-
features. The Government holdings on
May amounted to 1926, 9S9,371, and
the amount held by the national banks
attheir last statement was $195, 1898
These two items constitute the gold in
sight, and together amount to 1922
759, 243, leaving about 100000, 900 to
be otherwise accounted for. 1t is, of
course, not correct to say that this en-
tire amount is missin G from the country
as it is known that state banks, trust
companies and similar organizations at
all times have share of their regular
ready money i'll gold, and that corsd-
cradle amount is in general circulation.
1t has been held, however, by some
writers that the amount of gold outside
the treasury and national banks cannot
possibly be so great as the sum named,
anu Indl therefore lue treasury estludte
of the total stock is manifestly erroneous.
This office and the sub-treasury in New
York are engaged in an effort to check
the figures that have been made from
year to year. Mr.. Muhleman is going
carefully over the figures for exports and
imports, and an effort is being made here
to check the figures for consumption in
the arts and to obtain such information
as may be available as to the sums car
ried out of the country by travellers and
not reported to the custom houses. The
inquiry has not proceeded far enough to
warrant any statement of results"

The greatest fortune any mother can
bestow on her child is a healthy body
and happy mind, and with this great
fortune every mother may endow the
child if she will. The child's stock of
health is what the mother supplies. The
weak and worried woman has a very
slender stock of health to bestow on
the baby.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
makes mothers healthy and happy. 1t
does away with the misery of morning
sickness. 1t strengthens the nerves,
gives the body feeling of buoyancy,
makes the mind cheerful, gives vigor
and elasticity to the organs peculiarly
feminine, and babys advent to the world
is free from danger and painless.
