IS A REAL LOVER.
Royalty Happy Over Betrothal of the
Belgian Prince, Heir Appar-
ent to the Throne.

Great satisfactionisex at Ant
werp at the betrothal Of Prince Albert,
heir presumptive to the throne of Bel
GUM, to Princess Elizabeth of Bavaria,
second daughter of Prince Charles The
odDre and Duchess Maria Joseph of
Bragance. The betrothal is especially
pleasing to the people, as it is said to
be the outcome of a genuine romance.
Prince Albert took particular pleas
ure in informing President Mckinley
personally by wire of his betrothal be-
fore the official announcement could
reach Washington, as a mark Of his
appreciation of the hospitable reception
given him in the United States.
Every one is pleased with Princess
Elizabeth and thinks she will make an
excellent queen. Your correspondent
is informed by one of the princes en-
tourage that the popular idea that this
IS a love match is quite correct. The
royal pair were drawn together by pure
affection and mutual inclination. and
this is source of great pleasure to the
count and countess of Flanders as well
as to King Leopold.

MONITORS FOR TARGETS.
Movement in Naval Circles to Follow
Example of England in Shooting
mt Real Warsl1ip.

Considerable interest is being taken
in naval circles in plan to authorize
the North Atlantic squadron to use
one of the civil war monitors as tar
get for the rapidfre guns of Admiral
Farquhar's vessels.
This practice would. naval experts
say, supplement- the information
gained by the British navy from the
practice of the battleship Majestic on
the old turret ship Belle Isle, built
20 years ago. The Belle Isle was put
in condition for action, without, how
ever, crew aboard, and the Majestic
opened fire. The firing lasted nine
minutes. In six minutes the vessel
was in flames, and an examination of
the ship showed she was wreck in
side and was simply riddled with
shell. Naval officers say that the
British will make several important
changes in naval practice as result
of the Belle Isle experiment, and they
are hoping that the department will
decide to authorize the equipment of
one OF the old monitors and the use
Of her as a target for the Kearsarge
OF New York. The monitors are of
very little value, and the loss would
consequently not be great, while the
information that could be obtained
would be of great value

Bachelor School Principals at Holy

The Holyoke (Mass.) school board
does not propose to be accused of dis
couraging matrimonial advancement.
In fact, it has just taken a step that
will lead several couples to the altar
soon, or the possible grooms will be out
of work. A few days ago the members
of the board made a tour of the several
school buildings to inspect the work
and ascertain how the principals and
teachers were getting along. :
In two buildings there were bachelor
principals, while in a third was young
principal fresh from college. After the
members of the board had explored the
building where one of the bachelors
taught and had questioned the princi-
pal closely, Committeeman Carmody
who acted as spokesman, said:
1.-The committee is very we'll pleased

thing that we feel should be impressed

DISCUSS ART NATIONALITY.
by Adopted British Citizens
Shown in American Section. -

Frederick Miller, the well-known pa
; tron of art, has created considerable
discussion by letter to the London
Daily Mail complaining that several
Anglo-American artists, such as John
S. Sargent, E. A. Abbey F. D. Millet
and Mark Fisher, had pictures hung in
the American section of the Paris ex-
position instead of the British.
Mr. Miller insisted that, since these
artists were adopted citizens of Great
Britain, it was poor taste to hang their
pictures in the section of another coun-
try, especially since it meant serious
loss to the British exhibit.
Sargent, however, declares neither
the artists concerned nor the English
nor American commission are respon-
sible.
when we decided to exhibit" said
Sargent, both Abbey and myself nat
urally expected that our work would
appear in the English section, as our
negotiations were conducted through
the English commission. :,
''We were informed, however. that
the French authorities had made out a
list of names, including, besides Alb
bey's, mine, 'Millet's and Mark Fishers,
all of whose works they insisted must
be shown in the American section
1.-The British commission, I under
stand, formally protested against the
exclusion, but the exhibition author
tiles refused to yield, and hence the con-
fusion"
Sargent can give no reason for the
probable motive prompting the action.

CALLS IL a FRAUD.
Gov. Roosevelt's Uncle Returns Dis
gusted with Paris Exposition.
Saws He Feels 1t His Duty to Warn
Americans Against the Mass OF
Fakes-Declares United States
Building Unsafe.

Robert B. Roosevelt, the uncle Of
Gov. Roosevelt, fresh from the Paris
exposition, arrived home on the Hol-
land line steamship Statendam the
other day. 81 am not cynic, and am
usually easily pleased, = said Mr.. =Roose-
yelt when seen at his residence, 81 Fifth
avenue, New York, ..''but that exposition
is the worst fake and fraud that was
ever perpetrated on mankind se
''The papers were right when they
said recently that the American build
ing at the exposition was unsafe. 1t is
unsafe. don't care what is said to the
contrary, and I want to tell the people
of New York that it is. I was there on
the opening day, and know of my own
personal knowledge that not half the
people who wanted to go into it were
allowed. The building was not more
than half full at any time, and even
then it was not safe. If all the people
who were turned back had got in at
once the building, in my opinion, would
have fallen.
81 do not blame Commissioner Peck.
I don't know who is responsible for the
building being weak.
"Unless you have been to the exposi-
ton you can't understand how Amerl-
cans are being robbed in Paris this
summer. Really, it is the duty OF some
one to warn Americans to keep away
from the exposition, and am going to
take up that duty.
In the first place, it is worse than
Bowery-not as interesting as themost
uninteresting show on the Bowery.
Everything about it is fake. have
read lots in the papers about the won
derful spyglass that showed the moon.
I went to see this spyglass, and found
it pointed to magic lantern. , de-
tected the fake at once, but went on
Just as did all others, and paid another
franc to see the next fake.
Before I went to the exposition L
calculated that person could see the
whole show for 800 francs. discovered
before I left that it cost just 1,5O0
francs to see every fake. 3
The art galleries are worth seeing,
and the American exhibits are as good
as any. In fact, I can say from an I'M
prejudced viewpoint that they are
even better than those from any other
country except France. and they are as
good as those from France Art critics
to whom 1 talked say that America is
improving in art while France is de-
terorating."

Life Guard Martin, while patro1ing
the beach at Chelsea, N J. ], the other
day, was startled by the sudden APP
pearance of an ugly ooking sea Great
ure floating up and down with the
waves. The monster was about 200
feet from shore and as it opened it's
huge mouth, which was encircled with
shark-like fangs, it headed directly
for the shore. Martin, thinking tt
was coming after him, ran short
distance away and watched the move
ments Of the animal, which kept on
moving shoreward and it was soon on
fdry sand. Martin then became nervy
and selling club rushed to the ami
NAL and dealt it heavy. blow, crush
ing its head. .s
Policeman Nash FASTENED to the
spot, and, with the assistance of Mar
tin, pulled the Notwithstanding sea
monster further on land. The captors
measured the creature and the tape
showed it to be II feet and 6 inches
long. The thickest part Of the body
measured 10 inches in circumference.
It was pale green in color, turning al
most to a dirty white It possessed
a pair of fippers or fms, situated near
the forward part of the body, like an
eel. The tail seemed powerful and was
fattened and was broad at the end.
RI Prof. J IN. Stone, of Columbus, 20,
who is q delegate to the American
Medical association convention at At
lantic City, viewed the creature and
said it is not sea serpent proper
but a moray, one of the gigantic cells
from the coast of Bermuda or the
Azores.

ed, ''the largest being seven feet, but
this completely outmeasured that one,
and is a fine specimen. It is not poi
sonous, but is dreaded by other den
liens of the Deep"

came north along the coast in the
