TICT0RIA'S REAL LIFE.
English Writer Discusses Facts OF Her
Reign

London, April 1.-THE Quarterly
Review contains a remarka bic article
on Queen Victoria. evidently written
from q reese and intimate kno"l'
edge during a period OF % years
The article Is not signed, but II 81,
perhaps. the first character study OF
the queen made by ans competent
writer who had the advantage OF
personal acquaintance With her.
1t throws Il Anew light upon many
Of the eecret passages in the history
OF the reign and contains series OF
fresh anecdotes illustrating the
Queens characteristic traits OF
trenchant humor and racy talk
The explanation given OF the
queens prejudice against Mr. Glad
stone is that it started i'll the sus-
picion that he gave her too much
work to do until she was, as she put
it, dead beat" He tried in his Gag
erness to press her to do what she
considered to be his work, and when
she resented it and he renewed the
attempt she formed a pertinaclous
prejudice against him which never
was removed. The author states
that was always an element OF her
reticence with regard to Gladstone
that he was too High Church and
had the mind of Jesuit.
The queens own attitude in regard
TO religion is discussed iudiciously.
The headship OF the Anglican church
or the Scotch Presbyterianism she
considered part of the business OF
statecraft and did not trouble her
conscience about it. Probably the
form of service which she preferred
was that OF the Presbyterian church,
but she was broad churchwoman,
with no curiosity about creeds. She
liked Roman Catholics much better |
than Anglican ritualists.

Memphis, Tenn, April 1.-Two

spent three minutes in the place and
got away with $4,000. The police

room. There was So, 800 in a wallet
lying upon "a table and $500 in bills
in the hands of Marsh The four
men in the room were ordered to lie
down on the floor if they expected to
escape with their lives The men
dropped to their knees and the rob-
bers snatched all the money in sight.
One man kept the four men covered
while the other stuffed the money in
his pockets. After securing the
money on the table, the robbers or
dered Marsh and the others to stand
up and then went through their
pockets. The gamblers made no re-
sistance, as they were informed that
the slightest move would mean in
slant death. The robbers secured
only small amount from the gam
blers' pockets. They overlooked a
wallet in Marsh S trousers containing
$500. Then covering the inmates
with revolvers, the robbers backed

HARVESTING NIAGARA

In a magazine article on the posSibil-
dties of Niagara Falls in which he dis
cusses the electrical development of the
cataract, Mr.. Rollin L. HART reveals
possibilities of power that few years
ago would have been regarded as sheer
wild romance and even now are almost
beyond comprehension.
Mr.. HART says the small city of
Niagara Falls is now guessing whether
It will absorb Buffalo or the reverse.
At present there is loss of IL per cent.
Of the electrical power in the twenty
three miles from the falls to Buffalo.
As to why SO long time has elapsed
before serious attempts have been made
to utilize Niagara, the writer says that
the stupendousness Of the possibilities
was too great. Show the human
mind a mill-pond 100 yards long, dam
Is feet high and feet thick and tall

continues, ''the resources of the Lower

Moundsville is to have saloon trust.
1t will be formed on regular trust lines,
that is, the present individual competi-
tors in the saloon business will all
merge their interests in the trust saloon
in which they will become stockho1d-
ers. The central establishment will be
fitted out with the fixtures from the
other saloons. The scheme will save a
considerable sum in license fees and
also in operating expenses. There is no
class in fact, who would save more by
consolidation than saloonists.
Verify Moundsville is a PIONEER, and
lap ahead of the rest of the country
even in these days of rapid develop
ment along the line of consolidation of
industries, and is fully abreast, or a
little ahead of the metropolitan centers,
which now are wrestling with the de-
partment store idea.
Moundsville's saloon trust experiment
will be watched with keen interest in
other cities. The scheme has its adj
vantages from other than the saloon
lists point of view. A central saloon,
for instance, would render it much
easier for the authorities to supervise
and regulate the traffic.
In larger cities there could be branch
establishments in different sections for
convenience of citizens, after the plan
of some of the metropolitan stores.

SMALL SEAL CATCHES.

VICTORIA, B. c., May 3.-The fol-
lowing sealing schooners have arrived
here and report the following catches,
the lowest for some years:
Allie |. Alger, ga; Triumph, 279;
Ocean Belle. 10; Florence NJ. Smith,
1852; Favorite, ISL; Vive, 1872; Libbie,
III; Anioka, 76; and R. l. Morse, 6S.
Among the catch were three seals
branded by the United States on Priby-
loft islands. They were taken south of
Cape Flattery. But for the schooner
Victoria springing her main mast, the
fleet suffered no injuries during the re-
cent gales. The season was not re-
markable for very. rough weather, but
was too rough to permit boats being
lowered often. and, though numbers of
seals were seen, they could not be ap-
preached.
