VICTOR EMmANUEES SANGFROID.

From The London News
An anecdote has been published proving King
Victor EmmanueTS sangfrOid when quite a
youth. In 1887 experiments were being made
at the fort OF Monte Mario. Rome, on some
cases of dynamite rendered inert for transporta-
ton. They tried by firing bullets at them
from distance of five yards. The then Prince
Of Naples watching the proceedings with
great interest standing close to the men who
fired. All at once one of the cases when struck
exploded, and the fragments flew over the heads
of those present. 1t seemed that no one was
hurt The young Prince had not moved, but
was seen to draw his mantle. which had been
hanging loose, closely about him. He ordered
the experiments to be continued. When all was
over it was again noticed that the Prince in
walking left traces of blood on the ground, and
it turned out that he had been struck by a
fragment though not severely, and that he had
drawn his mantle about him to hide that he
was bleeding. He only allowed his wound to
be examined and dressed after he reached the
Ouirinal.

nounced. Among the speakers was G. Hilton
Scribner, who in the of his remarks
told of visit TO the Chester Cathedral in Eng

twenty from different quarters of the globe"

A wheel fan which runs by hand power is one
of the rewest keeping cool devices that has
appeared the local market. 1t has handles
like those of a curling-iron, and the fan part is
a miniature of the electric fan which is seen
everywhere. A pressure of the hand upon the
handles causes the three blades of the fan to
rotate for several minutes. and the speed is not
checked by repeating. The fan is fitted with a
guard Of wire and chain and can be folded up
