and cards signed by many royal hands.
The empress who, even at the height
of her glory as a sovereign and a
beautiful woman, was renowned for
her charity, is now a benefactress to
the poor roundabout Marlborough. She
often drives in the very plainest of
black broughams with servants in
deep mourning, and when she was in
better health it was no uncommon
sight to see it drawn up at one or
other of the humber cottages in the
neighborhood. She entirely supports
and has endowed the monastery at
tached to the church. There is a
private way from Farnborough Hill to
the mausoleum. A small wooden gate
with a peculiar catch used to connect
the two properties, but the empress is
hardly ever able to use it now. The
anniversary of the prince imperials
death is a day of great anguish to the
empress. Hers is one of the saddest
faces it can fall to ones lot to know
and compared with the radiant por-
trait of her by Winterhalter, for in
stance, its pathos is tenfold increased.

In little village in Surrey, Eng, as
remote from the great world as
desert island, the ex-Empress Eugene,
widow of the third Napoleon, is spend
ing the evening of her days. Her
home, Farnborough Hill, is SO closely
hidden by trees that at no point can
the all-pervading tourist gain a
glimpse of the quiet gabled house. The
empress, a sad, white haired woman,
almost crippled with rheumatism,
spends her time chiefly in prayer.
Close to her home she has built the
pure white mausoleum, with its dome
and many spires, that can be seen
from all points of the country for
miles around There black-robed
Benedictines pray constantly for the
good estate of the souls of Napoleon
III. and the prince imperial. The
empress is too infirm now to sit, as
she used to, in the sanctuary of the
great white church; mass is said, gen
orally by the prior, at her own house.
Under the church, in the crypt, are
two great sarcophagi in red granite,

WHAT A DOLL DID.
Plaything Had Soothing Influence Upon
Warlike Apaches.


WarIike Apaches.
A strange story is told of how
childs plaything once had soothing
influence upon a warlike Apache tribe
and was the means of avoiding seri
GUS war. 1t happened that Mr. Bourke
was in Arizona with Gen. Crook. The
general was trying to put band of
Apaches back on the reserve, but could
not catch them without killing them,
and that he did not want to do. One
day his men captured little Indian
girl and took her to the fort. She was
quiet all day, saying not word, but
her black beads OF eyes watched every
thing When night came, however, she
broke down and sobbed just as any
white child would have done. They
tried in vain to comfort her, and then
Mr.. Bourke had an idea. From the
adjutant's wife he borrowed a pretty
doll that belonged to her little daugh-
ter, and when the young Apache was
made to understand that it was hers
to keep her sobs ceased, and she fell
asleep. When morning came the doll
was still clasped in her arms. She
played with it all day and apparently
all thought Of ever getting back to her
tribe had left her. Several days passed
and as no overtures about the return
Of the papoose had been made by the
tribe, they sent her, with the doll still
in her possession, back to her people.
Mr.. Bourke had no idea OF the, effect
his benevolent act woiild have upon
( the Indians. When the child reached
them, with the pretty doll iE its chub-
by hands, it made great sensation
among them, and later on its mother
came back to the post with it. She
was kindly received and Hospitality

only by genious heroism or some
other great quality. During the en-
tire evening each time she passed near
the place where he sat watching her
dancing or walking, wave OF pas
sionate alteration and sadness surged
through his being.
He saw hel again. He was intro
duced to her ana N time to her
mother. During the winter he loved
her silently and without the least
hope. What right had he to covet such
a love. hundred men, the elite OF
Paris, would have killed themselves
for her. And she was fabulously rich.
So he loved her as one loves mac
cessible things the clouds, the stars
or the sun. She welcomed him as she
did others and her mother seemed to
like him. What did that signify?
Pierre was an impossibility. In debt
up to his neck he passed through the
most humiiating period of his life
The chief of his bureau warned him
that he must either settle with his
creditors or the bureau would be COM
pelled to dispense with his services.
One evening the poor boy sat with
his head is his hands rejecting upon
his situation The thought of suicide
entered his brain. A tiny fire burned
in his stove; the lamp with little Oil
flickered. He was cold and hungry,
and he felt himself alone and without

dying in a cave. In the midst OF his
distress there came a vision OF tne

The Balloon Burst.

The most dreadful aeronautic posi-
ton, perhaps, which it is possible to
conceive is that described in Memoirs
OF Sir Claude de Crespigny" Burnaby,
noted aeronaut, was making an as
cent from Cremorne with two French
men, one of whom was the inventor
OF the balloon in use. When they
were about a mile and half high, the
appalling discovery was made that the
neck of the aerostat, which should
have been left open to allow the gas to
escape, was still tied up with a silk
handkerchief. The balloon was now
quite full, and the atmospheric pres
sure was rapidly decreasing as the
aeronauts ascended, while the gas
having no exit. continued to expand
1t was impossible to get at the neck
and loosen the fatal handkerchief, and
to make disaster doubly sure, the
valve-line was out of reach. The only
thing the men could do was to sit still
and await the bursting of the balloon
and the fatal dash to earth. Within a
few minutes the balloon burst, and
instantly began to rush earthwaYd
with increasing velocity. But by a
piece OF wonderful good fortune the
balloon in its downward course met
the resistance of the air in such n
way as to form huge parachute and
the happy aeronauts landed unhurt in
a field just outside the city.

The poor boy was forced to accept a
elerkship in a government office.
None the less he still went about in
society. AS he did not try to borrow
money from anybody as he talked
well and looked well the best hostesses
asked him to their houses. One even
ing he attended ball given by rich
Argentinian, Don Estevan Zuloaga.
The affair was dazzling. All the South
Americans in Paris were there. includ-
ing many ravishing beauties. Pierre
admired Spanish beauties with the en-
thusiasm of the old romancers. Those
eyes where voluptuousness distilled
their mage, those delicious curves OF
the figure, those little feet light and
trembling, those magnificent mouths
created for kissing aroused in Pierre
an ecstatic, drunkenness. Don Esta-
van had sought to bring together the
richest human flowers of the Plata,
Peru, Chile, and Mexico. The scene
nearly turned the head of Pierre
when he entered.
But the grace and beauty of all the
other women was dimmed in his eyes
when he perceived a young Chilian on
the arm of young and handsome
Spaniard: With skin as clear as
blondes put of a wonderful smooth
ness, with eyes that absorbed the light
and emitted IL again in dazzling cleo
trio rays; with divine mouth as in
nocent as voluptuous. with graceful

Some have a tendency to say that
the present troubles in China arose
out of the missionary question. This
is an extremely narrow view, and it
indicates that the one who holds it
knows nothing back of what has oc-
CURED during the past year. The
present troubles are the last efforts
of the old Conservatives to. preserve
the conditions which have existed in
China for four thousand years. l have
a number of friends among the young
scholars, first, second, third and fourth
graduates. They are young men who
have studied English, and who have
started English schools. Their
schools have been destroyed by the
Conservatives, and for the past two
years they have been out of employ
ment. All of them, so far as l know,
are still pursuing the same line of
study, confident that conservatism is
thing of the past. that reform must
come, and when it does come they will
be ready for it. Such men are of the
class of Minister WI Ting-fang, Lo
Feng-lo and Mr.. Yu, minister to
France, who called upon me few days
before he sailed for France. During
our conversation l alluded to the at
tempt he had made to entertain some
foreigners on New Years day, and to
serve them with tea, coffee, wine and
cakes. The Conservatives of the

DR.. Thomas Wilson, speaking al the
recent meeting of the American Asso-
citation for the Advancement of Science
argued that the celebrated theory of
Lombroso, associating certain types Of
crime with definite physical charac-
ters, was based upon untrustworthy
statistics. Doctor Wilson thought 1t
would be more correct to say that
crime determines the physical struc-
ture than vice versa, and that en-
vironment is more responsible for
crime than is hereditary character.

who was commissioned by the gov

the boundary line in the Mount Baker

markable statement to the govern
