King Ruled by a shrew.

Vienna, Jan. 14.-The announcement
that the Queen of Servia is to have q
new regiment named after her shows
that the King of Ssrvis is not only 0
victim of domestic infelioity, but also
that he has no longer the upper hand
ia his kingdom or In his own household.
The money necessary to purchase the
horses for this new regiment is to be
drawn from the purse recently subsorib-
ed by his subjects as q birthday OTTER
log to the king. The Queen OF
Servia will thus DO accorded
an honor which is usually re-
served to popular and public-spirited Queens
and Empresses. King Alexander, far from

mother, and has Away shown disposition to

dark. callow-lookiDg and specialized youth,
and is IL years herjunior. He married her,
though she was a woman with q past. This
was less than half year ago. Recently the
young King, entering her apartmen's unex-
pectedly. found her in company with the
Court Chamberlain, Major Mirkovitch, q
handsome officer, 80 years old, who forms q
striking contrast to the sombre, studious
young King. A lsdy-in-waiting present was
discreetly gazing out of the window. Alex
ander summoned his Servants, and the

A MISSING GIRL.

Miss Mary J. Cockerell, a young wo-
man from Virginia, who had been visit
ing Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A. Sheppard, in
Washington, has disappeared mys-
teriously and there is reason to sup
pose she has drowned herself. Miss
Cockerell was nineteen years old and
for number OF years lived with the
family OF Mr.. Sheppard in Loudoun
county, near Lsesburg, until they
moved 10 Washington, when she lived
for time with her father, John Cooke
rell, near Harper's Ferry. For the past
four years she has lived with the fami-
Iy of Mr.. Grub, uesr Round Hill.
She went to Washington during the
holidays and at the invitation Of Mr..
and Mrs. Sheppard had decided to
make her home there with her old
friends. About $3.50 o'clock Friday af-
ternoon she left home. Though it was
raining hard, she wore only an old pair
OF slippers, aud had white shoulder
cape thrown over her head, and the
cook says she thought Miss Cockerell
was going to store to secure provis-
ions for dinner. When she did not re-
turn late at night Mr.. Sheppard be-
came alarmed, and thinking she might
have gone to visit her brother Thomas,
10 this city, came here. Nothing had
been heard Of her here. Her clothing
hung in her room and her pockettook,
containing s., was untouched. Daring
the morning the girl had been talking
to the cook about drowning az means
of suicide.

plain to all people who have their ears

far off when the men who made the
glorious history Of the "storm Graded

This will be the Grst treaty between
