WILHELMINA'S WOOING.
How the Queen of Holland Met and
Won Her Fiance.

How the Queen of Holland Met and
Won Her Fiance.
Some interesting particulars of Queen
Wilhelmina's courtship and betrothal
Although the queen of the Netherlands
made the acquaintance of the Grand
appears, see her betrothed until she
went last year to Berlin. She had heard
a good deal about him from his sister
in-1aw, the Princess John, nee Sake
Weimar. The moment the Queen and
Prince Henry saw each other they We're
mutually impressed, and SO strongly
that the queen would hear of no other
sutton. She pleaded "a cold' as excuse
for not attending dinner where she
was to pass in review a number of as
pirants. The queens mother, seeing
this, prudently curtailed the visit to
Berlin. Inquiries We're in due course
set on foot about Prince Henry. All
the reports received about him were
favorable, and the queen arranged to
quainted with him. Instead of coming
to the exposition she planned an excur-
sion to SchwarZburg. Rooms We're talk
en- at hotel in a picturesque site for
the queen, her mother ard the Dowager
Duchess who was asked to be their
guest.
Prince Henry was not disinclined to
fall in with the little plan He obtained a
furlough to come to see his mother. He
got up excursions to the shaw places
in the Principality, and accompanied
the two queens in their walks, rides and
drives. She was supremacy happy in
his company, and was sorry when in
was time for the party to break up. AS
she was leaving, she said to the prince:
What a happy tour! L never spent
such a happy time in my life, and l
feel l owe so much to you" Cores
pondence followed, and one fine morn
ing the prime minister was summoned
by the queen to Loo. She lost no time
in informing him that she was engaged,
and to whom. She said she hoped the
council would give it's consent to the
she had decided upon. The
Prince of Mecklenburg belonged to the
oldest house in Germany, it's interna-
-ional situation was high, it played no
part in European politics, Prince Henry
could play no part in German politics,
MS career had been highly honorable,
and he was beloved in his family cir
lie. When you see him." added the
queen, ''you will I am sure be of opin-
on that / could not make a better
,hoice, whether for myself or for my
PEOPLE. "-London News

i Barring weak heart or lungs, Gripping
malformation or unusual fragilty,
| every young fellow at the age of en-
trance can learn to play well enough to
1 be factor in the football life of his
college and to benefit himself
Let him first learn so to handle him
self as to escape injury, the rudiments
of which any experienced player can
teach him in an hour to fall always
forward and upon the shoulder with
the arms down and one foot crossed
over the other, to keep his temper and
his head, and above all to play hard
and straight while he plays. 1t is the
timid or tricky player who is carried
off by the substitutes never to come
back upon the field again, Bruises and
bumps the new player will get in plen-
ty. He will find with amazement verg-
ing upon dismay that there are more
fine points of the game to be learned
than he ever dreamed Of But IL he will
sleep with the ball like the young prac-
ttioner of the sand bar and the river
bank, he will soon find these points
coming to him as by intuition That Is
can be gained in no other way
AS the value of the scrub is coming
to be realized by the football faculties
who manage the game In the various
colleges, the coaches are giving to the
scrub teams practical reward in the
shape Of schedule Of games with mi
nor elevens. This serves to keep them
tuned up, term which signifies the
final polish of good condition. 1t
means that absolute hunger for the
game that can be felt only when the
player is In the finest of physical cond-
ton, And it not infrequently happens
that the scrub, one day or another, will
be tuned up to such pitch of football
inspiration that for a time they will
sweep the regulars of their feet. Those
are unhappy times for the regulars, for
they mean shifting, in which some of
the VARSITY are relegated to the scrub
and their places supplied from the
scrub forces
For the best of the scrub players
there is always the chance of getting
place on the regular team. This years
scrub may be next years Varsity to a
greater or less extent. But the great
majority must go through the hard
knocks and hearty work Of the season
with no other reward than the satisfac-
ton of having done, in a more or less
inconspicuous way, good work for the
college. And when the great day of the
championship comes those who have
not won the coveted college letter for
their sweaters and are debarred from
action can still bear their part with
stout and practised lungs, and so aid in
the victory, for, to bring down the
words Of the poet once more to the lev
ell of the gxridiron, "They also serve
who only stand an dyell.''-New York |

POMPEII AND GALVESTON.
A Comparison of the Disasters That
Befell the Two cities,

Befell the Two Cities.
Pompeii is believed to have had rath
er more than twenty thousand inhabit
tants. The city stood on an elevation
overlooking the sea, the whole of the
Bay of Naples being in view, while in
the background doomed grim Vesuvius,
the destined destroyer. Close by flowed
the river Sarno, which was crossed by
a bridge. The volcano was supposed to
be extinct, and its sides were cultiva-
ted all the way up to the summit.
Grapes were largely grown, and wine
making was an important industry in
the neighborhood, which likewise pro-
duced cabbages famous for their excel
lence.
1t was the city of the clan of the
Pompeys founded by the Oseans, an
ancient Italian tribe, in the sixth CEN
fury b. G., or earlier, afterWard con-
quered by the Samnites, a rival tribe,
and eventually absorbed by mighty
Rome. The culture of the people was
very Greek; they worshipped various
Greek gods and used the Greek names
for their weights and measures. Being
so beautifully situated ana having
delightful climate, Pompeii was fa-
vorite resort Of wealthy Romans, many
of whom had villas there, Cicero had
handsome cottage" as it would now
be called, and the imperial family
maintained a palace close by. The viii.
las were mostly on the high ground
back of the town toward VesuVius and
facing the sea.
Small earthquakes were frequent, but
not much was thought of them. On the
9th day of February in the year SO A.
d. there came a tremendous shock,
which was a warning of what was to
follow. 1t threw down large part of
the city, including the beautiful tenn
pies of Jupiter. Apollo and Isis. but
most of the damage was repaired by

THE WORLDS LARGEST HOF
WARNS


In Sonoma, Sacramento, Mendocino,
Alam da, Yolo Yuba and San Joaquin
counties hops are extensively and sue
cessfully grown. The plantations of
the State combined would form one
enormous area of $500 acres, a far
reaching expanse Of valley land, nearly
twelve miles square and containing
more than 5000 900 hop vines, yielding
in a favorable season almost 100000
worth of dried hops.
1t is not generally known, but the
largest hops yards in the world are in
California, along the Sacramento, Rus
sian and Feather rivers, and the very
biggest hop field on earth is at Pleasan-
ton, in Alameda county, where there are
36S acres, with more than 445,000 vines
under one wire.
As the picking must all be done by
hand ard within the short season when
the blossoms are at their best, an army
of people has to be suddenly mustered
for the harvest The mild climatic con-
ditons that favor the development of
the p and the pleasant inland valleys
where it Is grown, combine to make hop
picking something of a summer time
delight, for the work is neither difficult
nor arduous and the pay is fair.
There are but two drawbacks to hop
picking. One is so called hop-poisoning,
which is simply sort of prickly heat
or rash sometimes produced by contacl
of face and arms with the nettle-lika
fuzz on the stalks of the hop vine. II
does not affect all pickers The other
is the dark staining of the hands re
sulting from the resin of the blossom.
1t may be removed by rubbing with the
crushed green leaves of the hop.-San

FAMILY SORROWS.

ever heard. Women threw themselves
into each others arms and wept, and
| men grasped each other by the hand
with feelings too big to be expressed in
words. Next morning the Indian cav
| airy siShS, rode into the city and they
were the handsomest soldiers with their
big turbans, waving plumes and fine
horses, ever seen by those who had en-
dured the siege.
In accounting for the trouble DR..
Martin said it was undoubtedly reac-
ton from the liberal policy OIL the
young emperor who had entered upon
a career of reform, with the object OIL
raising his people from their ignorance
and putting them on an equality with
the other nations of the world. He had
established common schools and col
leges, and entered upon career OF
progress that would make them equal
to the japanese. He went too fast,
however, and when he advocated free
speech there was a reaction, the dow
ager empress was called back to the
regency for the third time in her ca
reer, and she reversed the wheels of
progress, saving only the University of
Pekin, which had been one of the insti-
buttons favored by Ii Hung Chang.
AS to the Boxers, DR.. Martin said
they did not belong to a patriotic or
ganization at ALL as has been common
ly reported. They were an almost I'M
known and unheard Of society in the
remote province of Shantung men who
believed they possessed a charmed life
and by lamentations resembling hypno-
tism, mesmerism or spiritualism, pre-
tended to hold converse with the UNI
seen world and receive instructions
from their ancestors. They fully be-
lieved that they could bare their breasts
to the cannon balls of the foreigners,
and the wave of fanaticism that swept
over the nation was led by them aided
by the government. For the past year
the missionaries had been sending re-
ports tC the ministers of legations at
Pekin Of the activities of the Boxers
and of their support by the govern
ment, but the reports We're not bellev-
ed until they had to be believed, cir
cumstances bringing convincing proof.
The future of China, in DR.. Martins
opinion, has been greatly cleared up
up By the outbreak, and new era
awaits the nation. America has led
the world by the declarati ton of the open
door and all the powers had followed.
The open door was not for trade, nor
for enterprise but for all legitimate I'M
dertakings. While there was no call
for vengeance, there was call for I'M
ceasing warfare against the spirit of
darkness that had prevailed in China
and had brought about the horrors of
the summer. This warfare could be
carried on only by the missionary en-
terprises, which would make it possible
for all other legitimate enterprises to
follow. This would make the open door
that never would be closed to the Chris I
tan world.
DR.. Martin was frequently interrupted /
with applause and at the close of the |
address there was at least a full min |
Ute of the heartiest applause possible |
to give speaker. DR.. George William
son Smith, president of Trinity college,
pronounced the benediction.-Har

OLD ENGINEER RETIRES.

Samuel G. Nicholson Ends a Long Ser
vice of 80 years,
Samuel f. Nicholson of 434 East Main
street, Bridgeport, after a service of SO
years on the railroad, has severed his
connection and will hereafter enjoy the
fruits of his labor of past years in his
old age, the Farmer says:
Mr.. Nicholson was one who took good
care of himself as well as Of his money
was always good to everybody in need,
and had akind word for everyone. He
entered the employ of the Boston and
Albany road as brakeman in 1S47, and
remained with them until 1854 when
he entered the service of the Housa-
tonic, now the Berkshire division of
the N. Y N II e. Fl. r. R,as fireman
For his close attention to his duties he
was promoted in 1856 to engineer, and
has run continuously since then until
last month when he retired, to the
surprise and sorrow of all who knew
him. The boys" all thought Sam"
would spend his last days on the road,
for it is hard work for man who has
bee nrailroading so long as he has to
leave 1t, but Mr.. Nicholson leaves the
service of his own free will, thinking
it about time for man of his age to
wretire. and having amassed enough to
keen his family in comfortable circum-
stances he carried his idea into execu-
ton.
Although 72 years of age. Mr. Nichol-
son retains all of his faculties, and can

THE CZARINA's LOVE STORY.

| A Long Opposition to be Overcome Be-

| The car always loved his orphan
| cousin, and as they met somewhat fire.
quently he did not lack opportunity Of
discovering for himself that his love was
reciprocated. But there were grave OBJ
| jections to the match, and the young
lovers had many enemies. The cars
parents opposed the union with all the
emphasis they could command. Prin-
cess AliX was a Lutheran, and Nicholas
belonged to the Greek church. To AL
eXander III. this was almost fatal OBJ
lection to their marriage, and every
thing was done that could be done to
convince the young heir to all the Rus
sias that he must accept another bride.
Even Queen Victoria joined the little
army arrayed against the lovers. Prin-
cess AliX was her favorite grand
daughter, and she did not wish her to
change her religion or to face the perils
Of the Russian throne. There was an
other serious objection, too. Both the
lovers were delicate, and Alexander III.

sons son. At last the obstinate caro-
witch was sent on voyage round the
world, it being hoped that in the con-
slant change of scene he would forget
his love and come back prepared to do
as he was told. The love which had
bound Nicholas to his orphan cousin
was not, however, a thing that could be
put off in a new country, and the hier
apparent went back to Russia more de-
termined than ever not to marry unless
he loved. The voyage had greatly i'm
proved his health so that part of the
objection was removed.
But there still remained the religious
objection, and Nicholas pressed his suit.
He was fortunate in securing two pow
erful allies-the then Duchess of Edin-
burgh and the Grand Duchess Serge,
sister of the princess. Together these
women were able to overcome the faith
er's objections, but Queen Victoria had
