She was quite a chila;6 says that queen
Wi1helmina of Holland had one day given
her mother offense by her'wtAfui conauct.
Her mother, says the London Express,
requested, her to leave her presence,
which she did. A few minutes later came
a knock at the door,
who is, there?'. asked, her mother

piled the child.
al am not at home for the Queen Of the
Netherlands replied-her mother, but

This was followed by the sound of re-
treating footsteps. Five minutes later
another knock.
In reply to the inquiry, 4Who,s there?"
came the meek answer. 1t is l, your

It is recorded of the late Sir Arthur
Sullivan by a gentleman who was one of
his classmates at Leipsic that the dis
tinguished composer never told but one
Joke while student at the Conservato-

told the answer which is, wren she is a

and gave way to commissions Of merri-
ment.
The following day, when class had been
dismissed, the great composer announced
that he had a new conundrum that he
wished to ask. In minute he was the
object of the closest attention. Then,
with the greatest gravity imaginable, he
asked, when is woman not a wom-

There was a long pause, and Sir Ar

classmates acknowledged they We're un-

all had given it up, he announced the
answer, which was this. When she Is

1T is when she is a little buggy" said
Sir Arthur, with great emphasis. Again
there was silence, and gradually 1t began
to dawn upon Sullivan that his joke had
miscarried because of his own fault.
Later, it leaked out what the joke was,

Frederic Villers. the Famous war artist,
in an photographed sketch contributed
to London periodical. gives this pic
turesque but brief description of his last
meeting with Gen. Skobeleff.
He was far and away the most bril-
liant soldier l ever met. A man with
mad ideas and sane execution, the very
man we want today. He was never tied
down to what had gone before. The last
time 1 saw him was when the Russian
army faced Constantinople A splendid

10000 grim warriors who had come

general stood outside his tent, bare-head-
ed, scalp shaver like a Mussulman. flow
! ing yellow beard blown about by the
wind; deeply tanned features, gray over
coat; a remarkable picture against this
gloomy background. Further on was his
-cossack escort lighting their camp fires.
I had arrived from Censtantinople to bid
farewell to him, a I had been ordered to
Malta to meet the Indian contingent.
Skobeleff said to me:
MOI SOodDy, Nluers, but au FeYolr.
We shall meet again, but how? VIII it
be when the Russians face the British?"
for Skobeleff fully believed, as did most
people in 1878, that there would be a cam
paign between England and Russia-"or
will you throw in your fortunes with us
and come with me? 1t would be a new
experience for YOU"
But" said, General, how would It

He laughed and said. well, anyhow,

We shook hands, and never saw him
