The Mad King otto.

According to reports from Munich,
the condition Of the insane King Otto,
who some days ago ceiebFated'h This nifty
third birthday, has again become some
what critical, the renal disease from
which he suffers making all the more
rapid progress as the unhappy moR-
arch, who Is exceedingly strong, will
not let himself be examined or treated.
As he cannot be induced to take the
necessary diet and baths which would
Increase the activity Of the heart, eff
forts are made to introduce secretly
into his food indictments to prevent
chronic Inflammation Of the arteries
and dropsy. Sometimes, in order to
rouse him, he is allowed to see persons
whom he once knew and whose fea-
lures he remembers from his boyhood.
These he at once recognizes, calling
them by their names.
If his physicians want him to do any
thing, they have to resort to strategy,
for If he can be made to believe that he
can outwit his doctors and make fools
of them he does what is wanted. In
order to get him into the carriage to
take a drive the following maneuver
Is resorted to: The carriage drives up
to the gate Of the garden and is appar-
emily left alone there. AS soon as the
king thinks he is not watched he jumps
into the carriage and calls for the
coachman without being in the least
astonished at seeing his doctor follow
him into it.

PRETTY NURSES.

TEN at which the Independent Ameri-
can girl would rebel owing to the lack
of liberty, but the shop proprietors of
London believe they can get the most
out of the women in that way. Their
wages are smaller than saleswomen re-
ceive in America. Then come the sew
ing women and the restaurant and
bakeshop mattresses. In London as in
America girl mattresses are taking the
place of the hawk eyed masculine des-
pot who stands behind your chair
watching every mouthful you eat.
London is trailed across with a chain
of restaurants established by various
baking companies. These supply whole
some and simple food and employ nice
looking girl walters. The sign is dis
played, mo Fees Allowed" At the
pay desk. however, like a charity con-
tribution box, is receptacle with
slot, and above 1t is the inscription,
"The Contents of This Box Are Equal
ly Divided Among the Employees"
The patron of the shop is not exactly
comfortable in his mind unless he con-
tributes something for the pale, grace
full girls, who are wretchedly paid from
the American standpoint.
Girl stenographers are not very COM
mon, it not being thought that the frag-
lie feminine brain can compass the
shorthand. Feminine hotel clerks and
cashiers are, however, more frequent
than in America, and there are thou
sands of women In the branch post
offices.
The best fed looking and most at
tractive appearing Of all the women
workers of London are the nurses in
their pretty uniforms. These consist
of dress, cloak and bonnet all of the
same piece-black, blue, brown or gray.
The bonnet is a neat imitation Of a
widows cap. and the veil, thrown back
always, matches the color of the gown.
These fair women are one of the pleas

scheme has been at great care to ex-
plain fully the plans and purposes Of
the colony. Inqulrers are told that ev-
cry intending colonist will be charged
4 fee of $500. the money to go toward
building the community's houses. Ev-
serybody is welcome. he says, with the
exception Of ministers and lawyers.
Both can come If they are willing to go
in for manual labor. but he declares the
colony viii have no use for them as
professional men. He adds that while
he has no objection to men worshiping
God according to the dictates of their
conscience the colonists will have to do
their worshiping outside the communi-
ty. Lawyers, be declares. would only
be .drones In the Bellamy hive.
Schoolteachers. however, will find
hearty welcome, according to Mr.. Web
ster. especially those who can teach &C
cording to Bellamy. They would be ex-
pected to give the children training in
the principles If the brotherhood of
man. Says the founder of this New
Hampshire community:
TOO many lies are taught to children
now, think In our school we would
have nothing of the Santa Claus or any
other myth, but much of the underlying
socia.istic idea on which the colony is
run"
Doctors will also be cordially greeted
and women capable of nursing the sick.
But it is to the man able to work with
his hands that the heartiest welcome
will be extended. for the underlying
idea Of the colony is the glorifcation OF
manual labor.
Everything that win be used by the
community the colon,sts themselves are
expected to produce in time. The first
Industry II be established will be a
'sawmiE tor which there is excellent
water power on the farm. The found
er's idea is to have his people become
self supporting in every sense of the
word, and from the small beginning Of
the sawmlll he expects to see great In
dustrial progress. Farming win be car
ried on on large scale.
Thus Mr.. Webster ponders and plans,
endeavoring to anticipate every emer-
gency that may arise in the colony, to
overcome every objection that may be
urged against his pet idea. and all the
time he fondly cherishes the belief that
in 80 years not only his little flock. but
the whole country, viii be living under
the Bellamy system.

A WONDERFUL COFFIN.
Remarkable Reproduction of an An
cient SarcOphnEus.

cient SarcOphngus.
Every now and then the world hears
of the reopening, often by accident, of
some ancient tomb or Of the discovery
Of some long buried city and of the va
rious relics from great sarcophagi, or
collins, to pottery and other objects of
daily use or adornment. which are thus
brought to light to become the prizes
of important museums. American mu-
seums must usually be content with
reproductions of these treasures, so
that it is the more worthy of note that
the Boston Museum of Fine Arts has
recently added to its collections a re-
production Of one of these famous orig
inals Wilhelm one respect, at least
will probably become in time more val
liable than the original itself.
This unique acquisition is a copy Of
the famous Sidon sarcophagus which
was found some IA years ago in the
course of excavations on the site Of
Sidon, the capital city of ancient Ph9-
nicia, situated between Mount Lebanon
and the Mediterranean. 1t is now in
the Turkish museum at ConstantinOple.
1t was at first supposed to be the very
coffin that Alexander the Great had
brought from Greece for his own buri-
al. but this is no longer believed, al
though there are authentic portraits of
the great conQuerOr in each of the six
carved and beautifully colored panels
with which it is decorated. Moreover,
II represents the work of the Greeks
when their famous sculpture was al
most at its best, and it has helped to
prove the modern theory that the Greek
sculptors made habitual use of color on
their statuary. The color of the SidOn
sarcophagus, however, unless it proves
an exception to all other examples Of
Greek statuary that have come down to
us, is bound to fade despite every pre-
caution-is already beginning to do so,
indeed-while the color of the Ameri-
can reproduction, which was painted
with the utmost exactness by Mr.. Jo-
seph Lindon Smith for the Boston mu-
scum by special permission of the sui
tan, is practically imperishable.
Mr.. Smith made a painting of the two
larger sides of the sarcophagus, each
full size. The first represents a battle
presumably between the Greeks and
Persians and the second a hunting
scene in which Alexander the Great,
who. as has been said. figures in all the
decorations of the original, is an easily
recognizable figure and in which anoth-
er important character is supposed to
be Darius, the great Persian general.
These two canvases. placed back to
back and some little distance apart,
have been skillfully framed in a repro
duction of the carved marble that sur
rounds the sculptured and painted PAN
els of the original, so that the visitor
approaching from either direction seems
to see not painting. but a real part of
the great sarcophagus itself. In a few
years, as the freshness of the original
fades away, it is expected that these
lifelike copies will become an impor-
tant object of study for psychologists
from all over the world.

volume first used. He is heart and soul
with the tenets advanced by Bellamy

they will be followed by all mankind.

one share of stock, his holdings being
strictly limited to this one share. The

PENNSYLVANIA SYNOD
GOT A HOT REPORT
From the Committee on Public
Morals and Temperance.


PITTSBURG, Pa. October 2l.-After the
Sunday rest, the Synod OF Pennsylvania
again took hold of business this morning
with rush. There was a rapid run of
business and many routine reports were
read and adopted without discussion.
The hot report of the day was that OF
the committee on public morals and tenn
perance. 1t emphasized the increase of
Sabbath Dissertation. visiting and rid
ing" The anti-saloon league was en-
dorsed and the anti-canteen law was rat
flied. The report was presented by the
Rev. Dr. Henry Balm. of Poke Run.
The report says:
In the larger towns and cities the
number of saloons has multiplied and
drunkenness is on the increase. Nest of
the intemperanee is found among the for
eign-born population. There is NOSE Wis
iting and driving In country places, and
there is marked decline in the keeping of
the Sabbath as IL ought to be kept in
towns and cities. Much blame is put
upon the foreigner, but his bad example
is followed by many native Americans
and their children. Many young people
seem to care little or nothing for the day.
Many leading people in our churches set
a bad example. In many parts of our
commonwealth the old fashioned obsery-
ance will never return.
The resolution against the army canteen
was adopted by a rising vote. and the
preachers were ordered to preach on the
subjects of temperance and Sunday OBJ
servance.
Rev. Ferdinand Won krug reported on
the work among the Germans. The seven
German churches of the synod report n
membership of 1.52s Sunday school sehol-
ars. 2625; contributions to the boards OF
the church, $I,15i; congregational ex-
penses, s1s.3s9; members received, LIZ.
The Rev. Edgar +. Johnston reported
on young peoples societies that there
were T6i of them. with a total member
ship of 1894. They are decreasing in
number and membership as compared TO
the previous year. The report on publ
cation and Sunday school work was pre-
scented by the Rev. /. L. Polk. of Fagg's
Manor. The Rev. Charles E. Edwards
wanted q resolution added to make the
board publish periodicals in the Slavonic
language. 1t brought the Rev. DR. Henry
T. McClelland to his feet with the state
ment: II am opposed to giving the chill
dren of foreigners anything except
straight English anywhere in North
America" and it killed the Edwards reso-
tuition. Rev. Eugene r. Natter reported
on systematic benifcence. urging in
creased contributions.
Closing addresses were made by Moder-
ator T. r. Beeber, DR.. Gibson, j. j. Mat
thews and others, and the synod adjourn
ed to meet NEXT year in the First Pres
byterian church of Allegheny. 1t was a
hard campaign to head off the report of
