 FRINGE OF MONACO
Has Made sood Terms for Himseis
 with the Casino Company.

Ten years have elapsed since Prince Albert ascended the throne of the Grimaldi amid pageant which re- called the middle ages, says the Gen. tleman's Magazine. The reigning sov- ereign, who is 51 years old was ed- ucated as naval officer, aad has served in both the Spanish and French navies, taking part in the Franco Prussian war Of 1870. Tn England he ography; In France he has lately mads himself conspicuous for his letter to Mime. Dreyfus; at home he is regard ed as very shreWd man of business, who has made excellent terms for him. self with the Casino company. So far the most important event of his reign has been the renewal of M. Blanc's original concession, which would have expired in 1913, for a fefsher period of fifty years from that date. This new privilege will have cost from first to last million sterling in hard cash paid to the prince; an annuity rising every ten years, till it will reach ~ LOV,OOO III Ll6 ldSL atC1uCt INV opera house, to cost GSf oO0, and, as B recognition of the artistic tastes ef the prince, sum Of E1,000 for each of ten special representations at the theater. He also receives, as may be seen from the balance sheet of ths company for last year, an additional grant of G20,000 for his law courts
 police and army of seventy-five men and is also large shareholder in the concern. Besides all this, the Casino pays for public works and roads, light ing, the water supply, the official wash house, the state baths and the loss on the postoffiee, while, true to the religious character of Monaco, it gives grants to the bishop, the clergy and the conyents. Tn short, the contem- porarY history Of Monaco is simply that of the Casino and the descendant of the Grimaldi is that very modern product-tlle aristreeratie fHancier.
 NEW USE FOR COAL DUST,

NEW USE FOR COAL DUST.
Somebody Apparently Selling It Widely
 in Place of Antimony


 in Place of Antimony.
 A rural chemist has accidentally dis covered curious case of adulteration, or, more accurately. of substitution in the matter of a drug commonly sold in pharmacies, rural and urban. The drug is the tri-sulphide of antimony, commonly known as black antimony. The chemist in analysing a patent remedy discovered that the Ingredients nearly correspehded with those in formula furnished by the Agricultural department but that coal dust had been substituted for black antimony. Struck with this discovery the chemist obtained twelve samples of black anti mony, most of them from druggists in his own neighborhood, but one from New York, of these, only one was really black antimony; the others were coal dust, coal dust and chalk or coal dust and sand. There is no reason to suppose that the druggists knew of the substitution, for there would be little profit in the deception unless 1t were practiced on large scale; but il seems plain that some manufacturing chemist is selling a worthless substi- ute for black antimony. Indeed the substitute may be sent out from more than one factory, for while the dozen samples tested came from the eastern coast, the remedy in which the sub- stitution was originally detected came from the west The New York drug gist who sold sample of the substi- ute does business in fashionable quarter where there is considerable demand for black antimony on the part of grooms and coachmen, who use 1t in the preparation of condition pow ders for horses. Two other druggists in the same neighborhood do not keep black antimony. One of them keeps what is known as red antimony, which Is chemically identieally with black antimony though different In appear ance Red antimony is a product Of chemical precipitation, while black Antlmony Is natural product found ln many parts of Europe. in Nova Scotia aad Nevada.

ORIGIN OF THE SLED.

 Where snow Is Unknown.

Seems te Hav0 Come from a Country
 Where snow Is Unknown.
 Dr. Karutz, an original scholar of Lubeck, has jast completed some val. uable Investigations relative to the in- vention of the sled. After long study he comes to the conclusion that prim. itive man probably arrived at the idea of the sled from seeing trees slip and slide down the mountains. In Madeira. for instance, where there is never any snow, sleds drawn by oxen are used Just as they are in the Philippines It Is development from the idea of a man dragging burden along the ground, when it was too heavy for him to lift it up and carry 1t. He at first hitched his dog to the deer that he had just killed and both dragged 1t toward the cave or hut in which they lived. When he saw logs slide down the mountain side the idea of using smooth logs that would slide over the ground easily when drawn by himself or one of his animals was the next step in the development of the sled. Primitive peoples like the Malays of sne Philippines, and the unprogres. sive peasants of Madeira, still use the sleds invented by their ancestors thou sands of years ago. In countries where ee and snow are found 1t is probable that the very fact of man slipping on the ice showed some inventive per. son that there was an easy way to carry what he wanted to transfer from one place to another, and so first pull ing branch along over the frozen snow instead of carry ing it, he thought or putting other things on the branch he trimmed off the twigs and leaves that caught in the stumps and other trees, and the beginning of the sled had come. The joining together of two logs, and shaping them were only steps Ill the perfection of the earliest method or transportation which antedated the invention, of wheeled vehicles by many ceI turies.-Detroit Free Press

Attorney Cornelius Smith yesterday
explained to a Tribune reporter the
grounds on which he and his colleague,
Attorney James p. Mahon, base their
petition for writ of habeas corpus to
secure the release of Richard Little,
which was presented Tuesday, to JUS
tice McCollum, of the Supreme court,
at his home in Montrose.
When the appeal from the judgment
of the local court was taken to the
Superior court the appeal was allowed
to act as a supersedeas, and upon the
filing of the proper bond, Little was
released.
The Superior court decided against
the appellant and Little was again
Jailed. At the first opportunity, Attor-
ney John It. Lenahan, of counsel for
the defense, filed a motion in the Su-
preme court for permission to take an
appeal from the decision of the Super
ior court. This motion has never been
heard from, and the Supreme court has
taken its summer vacation.
The defendants counsel contend be-
fore Justice McCollum that while they
went to the rounds to make q motion
for permission to appeal, such action
was not necessary, the appeal being
a natural right by reason of the fact
that a constitutional question was in
voved They expected the motion
would be disposed of at an early date,
by reason of the fact that the defend
ant was in Jail, but for some cause the
matter was left untouched.
When the Supreme court adjourned
n few 6aVg GiOpa wit bOit baUipo no Sca1
upon the appeal, the defendants coun-
sci resolved to withdraw from their
former position and proceed under
habeas corpus proceedings, just as IL
the appeal was being entertained by
the Supreme court, instead of simply
motion to appeal being pending, a
position which they could fairly as
sumo, they claim, because of the de-
fendant's inherent right to an appeal
and the fact that the appeal was to all
intents and purposes filed.
Their right to assume this position
being admitted, as they trust Justice
McCollum will decide, they are entitled,
they hold to have Little releaed, as the
law regulating the practice of the Su-
preme court says, in the plainest of
terms, the defendants counsel aver,
that in case appealed from the Super
ior court to the Supreme court, the
appeal shall act as a supersedeas, if
the appeal from the court of first in
stance to the Superior court was per-
mitted to act as a supersedeas.
Further, the bond in the first instance
is allowed to continue for the second
appeal.
Justice McCollum told Attorneys
Smith and Mahon that he would not
take any steps in the matter until he
| could find out what had become of the
motion to appeal which, it is alleged,
Mr.. Lenahan filed. Justice McCollum
avowed he knew nothing of it, He in
| formed the attorneys that he would
| communicate with them later as re-
| CARDS the matter of time for a hear
ing on the petition for habeas corpus.

FRANK sCoUTEN A HERO.
Saved Two Childen From a Terrible
Death at Parsons,

Frank Scouten, lumber dealer who
lives at Parsons, performed a deed of
daring heroism at that place yesterday
morning.
The express on the Delaware and
Hudson road going to WilkeS-Barre
which makes no stop at Parsons, was
approaching the station at a high rate
OF speed when two little girls walked
on the track a few feet north of the
station.
They took no notice of the approach
ing train and in an instant would
have been run down had not Scouten
jumped onto the track and with
marvellous quickness grabbed the chill
dren, one with each hand, and swing
ing them from the ground jumped
backward.
He just cleared the track as the en-
gine whizzed by, the cylinders brush
ing along his vest. He was unharmed

daughters of John Barr, of Parsons,
and We're and years of age respect
