As Told by Queen victort.

The Empress Frederick, who died at

years old when her hand was asked
in marriage by her future husband.
Queen Victoria tells the story in her
diary on the date Sept. %. 1855:
Our dear Victoria was this dav en-
gagged to Prince Frederick William Of
Prussia. who had been on a visit to rs
since the 18th. He had already spoken
to Us on the Goth Of his wishes, but we
were uncertain on account of her ex-
IRENE youth whether he should speak
to her himself or wait till he came
back again. However. we felt IL was
better he should do so, and during our
ride up Craig na-Ban this afternoon he
picked up a piece OF white heather (the
emblem Of good luck which he gave
her and this enabled him TO make an.

they rode down Glen Girnoch. which

Sir Donald Wallace. Tact

Speaking of the tact shown by the
Duke of Cornwall in his present jour
ney. The Candid Friend says: Per
haps he owes much of his success to
the fact that he has always had at his
elbow as counselor and friend that re-
markably shrewd Scotchman whose
career has been one of the most re-
markable of modern times. l allude
to Sir Donald Mackenzie Wallace, who
bids fair TO become a sort OF twentieth
century Stockmar. Sir Donald Wal
lace first came into prominence in the
late seventies. when his book on Rus
STA took the town by storm. 1t was of
course prohibited in the country it
described. but the whirligig of time
brings its revenges, and today it is
translated into Russian and actually
used as textbook in the higher grade
schools. Sir Donald began his career
long before this book was published
and was favorably known as a philolo-
gfst and folklorist years before it ever
occurred to him to go TO Russia"

IRAOmnia In Trees.

Report has it that some of the trees
on the embankment cannot thrive be-
cause they are deprived of rest at
night Powerful electric lights take
up the work when the sun sets. and the
trees, it is said. anguish from arboreal
insomnia. 1t is the light. not the kind
of it. that does the mischief. for cleo
tricity stimulates growth. The victims
cannot like the tired night worker
draw down a dark blind and make
an artificial night nor initiate the lyric
maiden who CLOSED her eyes when she
went to sleep" The tree is nearly all
eye-its leaf is eye, lungs and skin. A
pretty experiment which Professor
Dewar showed the other day illustrates
all this. The end of a plant covered
with leaves is immersed in small
tube containing water and a picture is
thrown on the screen. Instantly the
water can be seen flowing into the
plant. Then the leaves are stripped off
and at once the Transportation of fluid
ceases. If too long continued light be
the vera causa" of the trees anguish
ing then it would seem they also need
rest for Observation-Disclosures Telegraph.

horses are fine. spirited animals. well

was shipped here from Oyster Bay
about two weeks ago.
The presidents new saddle horse.
which was purchased to replace valu-
able animal he used at Oyster Bay and
which was killed while jumping
fence before President Roosevelt came
TO Washington, is "A splendid animal,
good jumper and has the speed and
stamina to take him along at rafting
gait with a man of the presidents
weight upon his back.
Both Bleistein and his stable rNate.
Yaegenka, are thoroughbred pedigreed
Kentucky stock. They have been used
frequently during the past two weeks,
the president and Mrs. Roosevelt TAX
ing long rides together over the ave-
nues about the city and out on the
country roads. where the president and
his wife allow their mounts to indulge
in a breezy gallop. The president has
given Bleistein a trial on cross country
work and is well pleased with the quail
tiles shown by the horse.
After the carriage horses have arriv-
ed probably a couple of ponies and
pony carts will be brought on from
Oyster Bay for the children. President
Mckinley kept four fine carriage
horses and at the beginning of his adj
ministration purchased saddle horse,
but the animal was seldom used and
when ii died was not replaced.
