THE MAD KING Oy BAVARIA.

| Should 1t be true, as Is extensively reported. that the mad king of Bavaria ] has suddenly become sane, then indeed
 has miracle been performed. King Otto succeeded his brother Louis II in 1886. He succeeded him in name only. Before he came to the throne he was
 mad; he has been mad ever since. The story of his brothers life and death form q tragedy in several act1. Gifted and handsome as a young man.
 he suddenly conceived Il wild desire to build castles. not in the air-his sub iects wish they had been-but on mountain tops, in inaccessible portions of his kingdom. and always of solid stone. At first his court smiled at what was regarded as . harmless ec- centricity. but before long smiles gave place to frowns, and the king was quietly put under restraint.
 Left alone for a moment he plunGcl into lake. taking with him his doc tor. who struggled in vain to escape. His successor has been kept in custody in castle q short distance from Mu- nich. and as he is frequently violent h. has to be carefully watched. One or the most extraordinary features of his insanity is his dislike to closed doors. the doors Of the apartments. therefore. are always kept open day and night. Once in an outburst of fury he smashed all the ,..indow- in the palace that he could get at.
 He wears black always, and his long beard is never trimmed. He was. and. maybe, still is, passionately addicted to cigarettes. and often smoked thirty or forty q day. A story used to be told that he delighted to use a whole box of matches in lighting each cigarette. As for amusements he has none, he moons about all day. his eyes fixed on vacancy, and the only ore about him whom he recognizes is an old servant who used to carry him in her arms when he was q youngster.

. the continuation of Rome's glory as the center Of the western civilized world. The starting point of the triumphal i arch was Italy. and. SO far as visible remains teach us. the city v: Rome. All ages are agreed that the triumphal arch forms one of the most perfect monuments to embody the gratitude of a community for services rendered ii in war, partly because Of the symbol ism alluded to. partly because of it's ornamental quality in connection with the architecture OF city, and no less because of the variety of embellish- nent a structure of the kind can sup port without appearing to be over loaded. It is not a thing for use. but for beauty. It is huge frame for Statuary, a pedestal and background for many monuments. The very fact that it is not utilitarian sets 1t apatt from architecture proper and places it at the summit of decoration in its most dignified and majestic culmina tion.
 There is no reason to believe that tri- umphal arches are not appreciated in the United States. The fact that the Naval arch has failed to elicit a sum large enough to erect it permanently y in the best material can be explained by conditions which existed at cer- tain date for that arch alone and need not obtain hereafter. This is the time for a renewed attempt to raise a fund to make 1t actual.
 Russia. Austria, Germany and Spain have no modern triumphal arches of any importance or beauty, neither has Great Britain; for the specimens at Berlin. Munich and London are s:pgu- larly lacking in the proportions and artistic grace that seem insepsrable from a monument of the kind. A modern arch exists in northern Italy in memory of Napoleon wh.ch has a style Of it's own. It seems reserved to Amer ica to take up the fashion where France left it in the century just gone by and use this element of city decora- ton with a freedom unknown since the days of the Roman ernperors.-Munici- pal Journal and Engineer.

tarrnal troubles, but they have al ways been given separately and only very recently al ingenious chemist succeeded. in combining them, together with other antiseptics into q pleasant effective tablet.
 Druggists sell the remedy under the name of Stunrt's Catarrh Tablets and it has met with remarkable success in the cure of nasal catarrh. bronchial and throat catarrh and in catarrh of the stomach.
 MT. r. Y. Benton, whose address is care of Clark House. Troy. N. Y., says: When l run up against any thing that is good I like to tell people of it. I have been troubled with ca tarrh more or less for some time. Last winter more than ever. Tried several so-called cures, but did not get any benefit from them. About six weeks go I bought 2 50-cent box of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and am glad to say that they have done wonders for me and I do not hesitate to let all my friends know that Stuart's Catarrh blets ore the right thing"
 MT. George J. Casanova oe Hotel Grirfon. West Ninth street. New York City. writes: "I have commenced us ing Stuart's Catarrh Tablets and all ready they have given me better re- cults tha~ any catarrh cure I hove ever tried.''
 A leading physician of PittsburG ad- vises the use of Stuart's Catarrh Tab lets in preference to any other treat nent for catarrh of the head. throat or ~tor1Hch.

state and ppap as well as stateoraft, until the latter began to wage wars outside of Italy and came in contact with the Greeks and Asiatics.
 The knowledge of the principle of the arch and perhaps the invention of tho true arch composed of wedge shaped blocks held in place by their own weight without the aid of mortar can be attributed to the Etruscans. Their tombs show the first beginning Of vaults composed of stones overlappin5 z and gradually meeting at the top. They show the false arch carved out of such overlapping stones. but they also afford many instances of the per feet arch built of dry masonry which supports itself when the keystone is put in place. The Great Sewer of Rome which shows the perfection CT arch and vault. is attributed to Tar quin, one of the Etruscan kings Of early Rome. Su that it is at least reasonable to suppose that the idea Of an independent arch erected for no common or useful purpose. but solely for pomp and as q symbol, came from the same people who taught the Ro- mans not only the arch principle in architecture, but their religion, augury and arts of civilization as well. That there should be no specimens of Etrus- can arches of triumph extant is not surprising, since it is with difficulty that we can reconstruct an Etruscan city or villa. It is only through the tombs they left and some wall paint inSs, bronzes and picture-clad vases that we know them at all.
 The highest point reached by the triumphGl arch in the city where so far as we arc sure 1t was a native. was the arch Of Trajln, which formed the entrance to the forum built by that em- peror. There were seven others in tFe complex of forum. basilica and temple beside the famous column which stiil exists, and this wealth of arches tes- tifes, as well as any other feature, u

 "Oh. she is a relation of mine"
 How nearly related?"

 May be? Then you are likely to marry her daughter"
 I've already married the daughter ''
 ''Oh, then, of course, the defendant is your mother-in-law?
 ''I guess you better hear the whole story" said the man named Frazier.
 He heaved a weary sigh and then went on:
 You see a year ago we lived to- gether-my son Bill and I. Across the way lived the Widow Foster and her daughter Mary. Well. sir. I married Mary because she was good looking. My son Bill married the widow because she had heaps of money. Now. per haps you can tell me whether the old lady is my mother-in-law or my daughter-in-law?
 But the lawyer couidn't-at least not just then. The problem had struck him all in a heap. He looked wild-eyed and his brain was reeling.
 Perhaps. when you've settled that question you'll undertake my suit" Frazier added. The old lady bor- rowed the money fair and square and she can pay it back. but she won't, and I've got to sue her"

ELECTRIC SEA SIGNAL.

Herr M. Gehre, a German engineer, has invented a buoy whose merit con- sists in that wave action lights it cleo trically. The apparatus needs no at tention for months at a time.
 Even the lightest waves generate the light, while the heaviest storms fail to put it out.
 Furthermore, in this device wave ac- ton also operates large bell. three resounding strokes being given before every flash of the light.
 These buoys are now being largely employed in the shallow waters along the German coast.
 It will be seen that this invention is an important one. not only because it will enable light buoys to be estab- lished in any seas. but also on account of the wider possibilities which are opened up by Herr Gehre's discovery.
 once man can utilize the seas strength against itself he will have eff fectively mastered the terrors of ocean travelling. and this discovery of har- messing the waves is a distinct step in the right direction.

AMERICAN SILK.

Secretary Wilson asks the small sum of s10.O00 to carry on his experiments with silk worms and in the planting Of mulberry trees. MT. Wilson is an en- thusiast, and he points with pardonable pride to the success of his other great hobby, beet sugar. as evidence of the substantial character of his claim that he knows what he is talking about The public a few years ago looked askance upon the proposition to grow sugar beets in paying quantities or making commercial sugar out of the beets at paying rates. This year 100000 tons of beet sugar were placed upon the mar ket. MT. Wilson is equally confident that the growth of the silk industry is but a question of time and care, with q little patriotism thrown in. If Amer jeans would buy everything here which is as good as the imported article, more goods would be made in this country. and the United States would be better off for the reform.-Kansas City Jour nal.
