that the period of mourning will be

Feb. Z, as will also the festivities
The woung woman who, as queen
of the 35,0O0,000 people who owe ale
glance to the throne of the Neither
lands. is, in a sense, the central figure
of the Dutch race now so prominently
before the public mind through the
south African war, was born in the
old palace at The Hague, Aug. 81,
1880. Joyfully the loyal population OF
| Holland greeted the arrival OF the lit
| tie princess, though here and there
subdued regret was heard that a girl
had been born instead of the anxious
ly expected boy. For little Wllhel-
nina Paulina Helena Maria--these
were the names she received in bap-
| tism-was the last branch OF the
great house of Orange, bound Oy
stronger ties to the people than any
other reigning house in Europe.
The constitution of the Netherlands
| forbade a woman to occupy the
| throne. So it was likely that the
Dutch people who, since the time OF
William the Silent, had seen an
Orange descendant at the head OF the
state, either as stakeholder of the re-
public or as king, would have to ac-
cept some distant relative ruler-not
a fullblooded Orange-as their ruler.
Great, therefore, was the joy through
out the land when, shortly after
wards, the congress of the Neither
Landslide Staten generaal'-amend-
ed the constitution and made the
young princess heir to the throne.

says that the wedding of the young
queen will take place at Amsterdam

The following is one of the stanzas
of the national anthem, which will be
sung at the wedding and by the
children in the schools Throughout
the country:
Protect her, Lord, preserve he'

Built on eternal right;
And may her crown by worth alone
More than with gold be bright.
Keep thou the scepter which she
bears,
Direct it in her hand.

SOCIETY NOTES.

One of the most enjoyable hops of
the. season was given by the members
of battery A, n. G. l., TO their friends
last evening at Armory hall About $50
couples We're present. The hall was
gaily decorated with flags and trophies
brought from the Philippines by re-
turned volunteers, making a beautiful
background to the gay crowd of dane
ers. The grand march was led by Gov
ernor Wells and Mrs. r. w Young, fol-
lowed by members Of the governors
staff and a majority of the officers of
the national guard. The programme
consisted of fifteen dances and a num-
Der of extras We're added during the
evening An army canteen was placed
in one end of the hall, where punch and
tight refreshments were served.
Last evenings hop is thS first of a
series of social functions TO be given
by the battery. The demand for invi-
tations has proven to the members of
the company that all future events viii
be a success and they intend 10 make
battery a a factor in the citys social
life.
The arrangement committee consisted
of Lieutenant.Nelson e. Margetts, Ser
geant E. II. Green, Corporal Robert E.

Slot Machines seII RAILWAY tickets.

Chicago TrlDune)
Automatic machines for the delivery
of railway tickets are a prominent fea-
ture of all railway stations in Berlin
facilitated by the fact that the zone
tariff system is in force on the Stadt
and Ring railways, which run through
and round Berlin and on the chief su-
burban- lines. A 10-pfennig (about ,
cents ticket can be used by a paSsen-
ger for third class journey from any
station on the line to any UP to the
fifth station from the point of depart
ure.
For all stations after the fifth, double
fare is charged. Second class single
fares under the same conditions are 10
and 80 pfennigs, respectively. \ Is
pfenntg ticket can also be obtained
from the automatic machines; two
that case, whereupon the machine de-
hveifs the ticket with 5-pfennig piece
as change. This system saves the pas
Senger much time and certainly saves
the railway company at least bne WIN
dow at each ticket office. In all Berlin
railway stations no one is allowed ON
the platform unless he is going by train
or purchases a platform ticket This
ticket costs 10 pfennigs, and is also
supplied by automatic machines 1t
may be mentioned that by the sale of
these platform tickets the state. which
owns the railways, nets over $500, 900 a
year. During 1900 SO, 00G, 600 tickets were

HARRIsoN's DEMOCRATIC WAYS
His Freedom With Newspaper Men
and Fear1essness of Assassins.
Chicago Record.

NJHlcdSO tE6cOrQ-J
General Harrison was one of the most
democratic of presidents. None of his
predecessors or successors has been
seen so frequently upon the street, and
it was his custom to stop and shake
hands with friends that he met while
walking just as he did with his neigh
bors in indianapolis. Nor did he connne
his walks to daylight nor limit his So
cial calls, as most presidents have done,
TO the houses of his cabinet. He fire.
quently went out alone to spend the
evening with a friend, and it was his
habit to play whist at the residence of
Dan Ransdell, an Indianapolis friend,
who was marshal of the District of
Columbia, at least once and sometimes
twice a week. He invariably returned
to the White House from these visits
on foot, and usually alone.
As l was going home one night after
IL o'clock | met President Harrison in
Dupont circle, and was naturally sur
prised to see his walking alone at that
hours. He stopped to shake hands ana
explained that he had been playing
whist with Dan RansdelI and was go
ing TO walk home. L volunteered to
walk with him and incautiously re-
marked that il was scarcely safe for
the president of the United States TO
be out alone at that time of night. He
replied quite sharply:
4 would be glad of your company
but l need no protection.
As we walked down Connecticut ave
nue. he explained that he had no sense
Of fear; that he did not propose to al
ter his habits of life and make himself
a prisoner because two presidents had
been assaSsinated.
'Assassins are always insane, ne said.
mo man in his right mind would com
nit such a crime. If any crank is i'm
PEELED to assaSsinate me, no amount
of caution can prevent it, ard / am in
clined TO think that publicity is the
greatest protection"
He discussed President Cleveland's
habit of surrounding himself with de-
tectives and remarked that he would
resign the presidency before he would
submit to such a nuisance.
Although General Harrison was pop
ularly regarded as one of the most re-
ticent of men, and of disposition I'M
usually secretive, there has never been
in the White House, unless it be Nc
Kin1ey, a president who has talked with
such freedom with newspaper CORE
spondents. He was accessible at all
times in the afternoon, although it was
useless for newspaper man to try TO
see him in the morning. He considered
that his regular reception hours be-
longed to congress and the public, but
it was only necessary to call at the
-Shite House after his luncheon TO Sc

WOMAN CLIMBED THE BRIDGE.
Made Her Way to the Top of New
East River Structure.
New York journal

(NeW YORK JOurnaL)
Climb TO the top of the tower?''
Pshaw! that's nothing. I bet you I
will do it within a week."
So said Miss Vera Neidig of No. 20
Van VoorhiS street. when banteringly
told by friend that no woman had the
pluck to climb to the top of the Brook
Ign toweg of the new East river
bridge.
Miss Neidig is a woman of her word,
and she allowed nothing to interfere
with her determination to perform the
climbing feat.
Sunday a party of fourswas formed to
carry out the project. 1t consisted of
George Edwards and his wife, of 1893
Decatur street, his brother, Herbert,
and Miss Neidig
A crowd watched the four as they
climbed the rough staircase to the stone
anchorage and walked over the long
trestle to the foot of the tower. Far
above the street as they were, even
then they seemed mere spc1S on the
maze-wOrk of iron. To the top of the
tower is hundreds of feet above.
Miss Neidig admits she had some
funny thoughts" as she gazed up the
endless rows Of converging steeE
But up they went UP and UP, past
the first landing, up past the narrow
ledge, where the top Orders rest, and
on UP into the very saddle of the tower,
perched like a little button on the top,
335 feet above the water.
From the street they could scarcely
be seen with the unaided eye, but they
waived their handkerchiefs, and the
people below answered with cheers.
How did 1 feel?" said Miss Neidig
yesterday. well, it was just fine. I
didn't mind it after we got up there,
but L was terribly frightened when we
were crossing the trestle. The wind
was blowing hard, too. The view was
fihe.''
khe only other woman who ever
climbed the tower was Mrs. Carol.
who, with her husband, foreman for
the American Bridge company, climbed
to the highest point at an earlier stage
of its construction
