newspaper. Under his management
the property grew in value, until the
paper became a leading republican
newspaper in the state. In 1887 Mr..
White was elected president of the
National Editorial association of the
United States.
Mr.. White is an effective stump
speaker, possessed, too, of genius
for political organization. His serv-
ices to the party have not gone unrec-
ognized. President Harrison appoint
ed him collector of internal revenue
for the district Of West Virginia in
1889. Mr.. White has large financial

Education and Prosperi,y.

Never before was there such flood
of students at our colleges as in 1899.
The reason for this is plain. The ia
theirs of the land are prosperous and
have resolved to give their children
the best education possible. More
over. many young men who have been
compelled to work for a living are
now able from their savings to pay
for an education.

Hohenzo.ern to marry anybody from
Servia. The car quietly intimated
that the king of Servia would save
himsef a lot of trouble by not coming
to st. Petersburg.
The emperor of Austria was quite
shocked at the idea, and as for the
prince of Wales-a daughter of his 60
ing to Servia was quite out of the ques-
ton. So the king came home bride
less.
One day he was sadly riding along a
country road, moody and preoccupied.
Suddenly he met Nine. Maschin. Her
beauty electrified him.
He noted her alabaster skin, her deep
violet eyes. her superb figure. and the
classic features that would have put
many a Venus to blush. He bowed be-
cause he knew that she had been lady
in-waiting upon Queen Natalie, his
mother. But as boy he had never
realized her beauty before.
''Why do I waste my time" he said
to one of his intimates, seeking and
counting homely princesses, when this
divine woman lives at my door?"
He was head over heels in love. He
danced attendance upon Nine. Maschin.
He showered her with gifts. From a
sot and a roue he changed in the twin
king of an eye to decent, sober young
man, full of love for his people and his
beautiful Nine. Maschin. He proposed.
The beautiful widow accepted. Only
on July % the betrothal was published
in the Official Gazette. There were
murmurs of disappSval. How could
a king marry woman of humble
birth?
The king was steadfast. He called
his officers about him. He announced
who was to be their queen. A few
cheered. The king was dumfounded.
Then the spirit of the moment carried
them away and they joined in wild
huZZahs.
81 am the king and can do as
please" announced the king to his
cabinet.
The ministers resigned in a body.
Ex-King Milan started at once to reach
Servia, vowing that his SON could never
marry beneath him. He was general
of the Servian army, and there might
be trouble. King Alexander had his
father stopped at the frontier. Then
the ex-king resigned his command.
AS a matter of fact the present Ser
Wan dynasty is not descended from
ROYALTY. AS late as 1929 the head Of
the house, Milos Obrenovitch, was a
swineherd. King Milan's designations
cost him his throne and forced Queen
Natalie to divorce him.
The new queen is wildly fond of her
people, and they of her. Before her
marriage she took an extended trip
through Servia and was everywhere re-
ceived with great enthusiasm and re-
spect.
"We shall have many difficulties"
she said to a newspaper correspondent,
'sbut we shall surmount them ALL"
The bridal procession passed through
streets gay with flags and flowers. Car
pets were hung from windows and the
balconies were crowded with people.
It is estimated that no fewer than 3O,-
600 persons came from the provinces
and from abroad to see the wedding
pageant.
