OF Italy took long promenade in the
neighborhood Of their chateau OF Rae

Queen suddenly became Intensely
thirsty. Percelvlng an old woman near

quested her to give him a little milk.
The peasant, ignorant OF the quality
OF her guests. pretended that her COW
gave no milk. But you have soma
water at your house." continued the
King. "That' yes" replied the old wo-
man. Gould you get some for me?"
III you would keep my COW while I
went for IT," Agreed" replied Victor
Emmanuel in the most serious fashioa
In the world. At the end Of ten min
utes the old woman returned with
bowl OF fresh water. But how does Il
happen" demanded the King, that
there are so few people in the coun-
try?" "They have all gone down TO
the chateau to see the King, the Queen
and the little Princess. It is only we
old ones that one leaves at the house
and who will never see them" But

piled the King. giving her a new gold

Said 1t Was Necessary to Steal to Keep
 Up Appearances

Boston, Aug. 16.-Willam F.. Douglas, aged twenty-siX, who is wanted by the Philadelphia police for the alleged em- blezzement of $13, 900 from the Guar antee Trust & Safe Deposit company of that city, was arrested this afternoon in Roslindale.
 Until May 1, Douglas was assistant teller of the company. On that date his resignation was asked for and he promptly rendered it. An examination of his books revealed the fact that he was some S13,000 short in his accounts and a warrant was issued for his ar rest
 His whereabouts, however, were un- known. It is believed he left Philadel- phia immediately after rendering his resignation although Douglas says he did not leave the Quaker City until June 2S On July 12 the superintendent of police in Philadelphia issued cir cular offering $500 for the arrest of Douglas. What caused the directors to ask for his resignation is not known Douglas does not deny his identity. He says that for the pats two years he had been in the habit of confiscatirg sums from the trust company, and insists that it was necessary that he should In. order to live up to his reputation as sport

TROOPS IN PEkIN.
Japanese Officer for Head of Chinese
 Police.

Pekin Aug. 16.-The troops of the powers have not yet evacuated the pulp lie buildings. The British and Ameri- cans propose to occupy, the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Agriculture until their barracks are ready.
 Sir Ernest Satow, the British minis ter, thinks it would not be wise to with draw before the protocol has been sign ed in conjunction with the Chinese plenipotentiary as withdrawal would remove the chief inducement to the Chi nese to sign.
 The Japanese still hold the northern section of the city. II is considered significant of their relations with the Chinese that Japanese colonel has been elected to command and organize the Chinese police.
 The opinion Is growing that the court will refuse to return so long as the pow CTS maintain such large forces in the province of Chi Lii.
 The protocol does not provide for the destruction of the forts. the ministers of the powers having failed to agree on this point.

IOWA FOR COHOMBI44.
Big Bottleshtp and Little Ranger Win
 Sail nt Once.

Washington. Aug, 1e.--A telegram has been prepared at the navy department to go forward to the Iowa immediately upon her arrival at San Francisco or dering her to prepare at once to go to sea. When she advises the department that she is ready an order will follow for her to proceed at once to Panama.
 The little cruiser Ranger, which is at San Diego, was ordered to sail to-day, It Is not believed there will be any de- lay in her departure, as she has had several days notice in order to prepare for the sea. She is very slow, however, making not more than six knots, and as the distance to Panama Is about 2,700 miles it would require almost fifteen days for her to reach her destination. The department, therefore decided to dispatch the Iowa as soon as the battle- ship arrives at San Francisco and can prepare for the trip.

CONSTITUTION WINS.
Drifts Across Line Half an Hour Ahead
 of Coll mbtp,

Larchmont Yacht Club, New York, Aug. 16-The Constitution drifted | across the finish line late this after noon, a winner over the Columbia by thirty-one minutes and twenty-three 1 seconds This difference in time, how | ever, does not represent the difference | in speed between the two yachts, for q vry large part of the big margain was entirely due to a fluke in the light airs while the boats were sailing the second round of the triangular course of fifteen miles. It occurred just as the Consti- tuition was rounding the first mark
 Both yachts had come up from the home mark on broad reach with a southwest wind, the Constitution lead ing by about two minutes. As they ap preached the stakeboat black clouds which had been gathering in the north west brought with them a small rain squall and sudden change of wind. The Constitution was able to turn on the southwest wind and immediately after take the northwestern, which lifted her out into the middle of the sound. while tHc SUlulllDld Was uldklllS LOT tie Ildlh close-hauled on the port tack. This gave the Constitution an opportunity to take advantage of the westerly wind which followed out in the sound, while the Columbia lay almost becalmed at the mark This settled the race, for thereafter the Columbia was hopelesSy out of it.
 The contest of speed was altogether in the first leg, while the wind, which was at all times light, held true. On every leg the new boat gained and maintained her reputation as won derfully fast yacht in soft airs. But the Columbia, with her perfect sails. was also going fast and in the first flf- teen miles the new boat only made up twenty-seven seconds over her time all 1owance. Summary of the race:

JOLIET IS NOW CENTER.
STEEL STRIKE TRANSFERRED
 FROM PITTSB URG TO THE TES7.H
Streets of Busy City Present Holiday Appearan ction of the Western
 Works Affords Pittsburg Strikers
Great Encouragement.

Joliet, H., Aug. 16.-When the 2,5oC
 employees of the Illinois Steel company, d constituent company of the United States Steel company, joined the ranks
 of the strikers to-day. the streets of this city took on a holiday appear
 ance. All the Illinois Steel mills are
 closed, except the blast furnaces. Those
 on strike in this city now are: Illinois Steel company (various de- partments), 2.500 men.
 American Tin Plate company, 800 men.
 Pressed Steel Car company, 300 men.
 By the closing down of the Illinois works idleness for lack of material is almost certain to come upon the follow ing within a week:
 American Steel and Wire company 1000 men.
 Joliet Stove works, 300 men.
 Phoenix Horseshoe Co., 800 men.
 Miscellaneous. 200 men.
 There was no disorder whatever to- day. While the strike leaders and company officials were very reticent 1t was stated by one of the latter that furnace fires have not been drawn, in the hope of an early settlement. Gener- al Superintendent Sheldon of the Illi- nois Steel company said plans are be- ing made which probably will put new phase on the situation. What these plans are he refused to say.
 Pittsburg, Aug. 16.-The center of in- terest in the steel strike to-day shifted t Tl1i E,,1 into line with the strikers and Mill waukee appointed tomorrow as the time for final vote on the question.
 The news that came out of the west cheered the strikers throughout the district in this vicinity as no other de- velopment since the labor war was de- clared In their enthusiasm they count upon favorable action at Milwaukee to- morrow and carrying their hopes still further say that they will yet win Chi cago over. These successes they de- clare with apparent confidence will make them masters of the situation and with end the strike.
 The steel opera tors on the other hand say the strikers are nearly at the flood tide of their success and when the ebb COIIlPS IL CdIl UtNtI Dp SlDplcd IuEy do not seem to be disturbed by recent events and with a confidence equal to that of the strikers talk with certainty of ultimate success.
 They assert that popular sentiment has never been behind the strikers and that the general interest which was once aroused by the contest is quickly They claim that they are more han holding their own in the non-union plants that were affected or have been started since the strike began and are for re-opening several plants low idle. They also claim that many ,f their men, particularly at McKees- | port, Wheeling and Bellaire, were fore d out by intimidation and will come | pack as soon as the excitement dies | ,ut and their safety is assured. Talk | # peace has been dropped for the time being, and it is agreed that in its pres mt aspects the situation indicates a prolonged and stubborn contest.
