PART OF CADET eoozs HAzINe.
Lampooned Because He Took Bible to
 West Point and Used 1t.

From the Philadelphia North American.
 The funeral of Oscar L. Booz, the youth whose untimely death Is charged to thoughtless cruelty on the part of his fel- low cadets at West Point, was held Thurs day in the Bristol Presbyterian Church, of which he was a member
 His friends joined on one point They agree with the authorities and students at the military academy-that the unfortu- nate youth was unpopular. But why? Be- cause say the West Pointers, he was care less in his departments, reserved in his attitude, and, finally, coward But every one in his home is his advocate. The Rev. Dr, Allison his pastor voices their con viction in these words:
 "Oscar Booz did not smoke, he did not drink and he did not swear. He was clean, pure and strong, a gentleman and Chris tian. These may be the reasons he was unpopular"
 Further, -the pastor says he would be- lieve the dead youth against the world. Young Booz had described an ordeal of in- genious torture No one in his home doubts that he told the truth.
 The chief theme of Dr. Alison's discourse was the charge that young Booz met with i'll treatment because he tried consistently to act as a Christian. The young man was persecuted because he carried to West Point a Bible given to him by the Sunday school in which he had been worker
 One feature in his hazing, as he related the story, was an attempt to make him read clipping from a local paper describ- ing the presentation.
 The extract. taken from the Bucks Coun- ty Gazette of June 23, 1898, is as follows:
 "Mr. Oscar l.. Booz was presented with a handsome teachers Bible by the Sabbath School Association of the Presbyterian Church at a sociable held on last Thurs day evening. The occasion was fare well to MT. BooZ, who has been appointed to West Point. As MT. Booz Is a baptized and communicant member of the church and has been identified with the Sabbath school from infancy, it was deemed a pleasure by all to show him this mark of respect and esteem. He enters upon the service of his country with the best wishes of all who have known him, and it Is not doubted that he will be faithful in all his duties."
 Cadet Booz wrote the following signifl- cant sentence in a letter to pr. Allison:
 " Itry to read my Bible every day, but 1t is hard, terribly hard. to be Christian here"

IMPROVED SERVICE
To Texas and the West Via Meridian and
 Shreveport

Effective October 2S, the Alabama Great Southern Railroad will inaugurate a new schedule between Birmingham, Texas and the West, via Meridian, Vicksburg and Shreveport, thereby reducing the running time between Birmingham and the Lone Star State twelve hours.
 This service will be complete in all re- spects, consisting of elegant Pullman sleep ing car, vestibule day coaches and dining car on which meals will be served a la carte. This train will depart from Bir- mingham, as at present, 10:1o D. m., arriv- ing Dallas, Fort Worth and other north Texas points early the following evening, or twelve hours quicker than via any other line. A close connection will be made at Longview, Tex, with the International and Great Northern Railroad for Austin, San Antonio, Palestine and intermediate sta- tons, shortening the schedule several hours. Parties contemplating trip West should bear in mind that by availing themselves of this new service they can reach the end of their trip almost before they realize it has commenced; and what has heretofore been considered a tedious undertaking may now be looked upon as a pleasant journey. It Is now possible to eat supper in Bir- mingham one day and take the same meal the day following at your destination in the far limits of Texas.

FASCINATING MEN, BUT UGLY
WiIheImina's Betrothed Has an mex
 pressibIe Charm for Women.


 Little Queen Wilhelmina's selection of a husband is the least handsome of the brothers of Mecklenburg- -Schwerin.
 Gossips whisper that the duke was taken by surprise and yet it was not the 1rstStime, in spite of being good deal of a ,detri- mental, that he has been admired by royal ladies. Everybory knows that when pretty Princess Helena of Russia suddenly broke her engagement with Max of Baden 1t was because she hoped to persuade her parents to let her marry the stout blonde young dukeling whom Wilhelmina has selected; and the youngest daughter of the Duke of Edinburgh has loved the young duke in vain. In short, HeinIich of Mecklenburg Schwerin is good deal of a lady Killer and he knows it. Fat and plain of face, sand, for a royal person. distinctly Spoverty- stricken, he has a fascination for woman kind. The sort of fascination that there is no use trying to explain, because it is not perceptible to any but the persons fascin- ated.
 One of the men who possessed this facul- ty to a most surprising degree was, Ma poleon Bonaparte's rival in the affections of Marie Louise the infamous and all power- ful Neipperg. He was an ugly creature. with small abilities and yet smaller fortune, and he had broken many hearts about the Aus trian court before Marie Loufee saw and fell furiously in love with him. With every thing to lose and nothing to gath by her encouragement of the man, she left no stone unturned until she was able to make herself Neipperg's wife. I'm tine eyes of the world it was a terrible degradation for the widow of the French Emperor to become the wife of an Austrian count, but she cared not a whit what the world said, as was the case with the women who ran af-
