TIE bome-go ng crowd was stream
iug up the BJwery one evening last
week. In the heart of it limped q
l. ng-whiskered, stoutly built man who
looked as If he might be C ERIK OF q
merchant Of the better paid class.
In lodging a wagon at one of the
cross streets his foot slipped and he
collapsed in o heap on the pavement,
one les doubled up beneath him. A
dozen persons tried to help him to his
feet, but the man only groaned and
walled something, which no one else
seemed to understand. 1t wPs clear,
though, that he couldn't walk, and the
l,g doubled at an angle at which no
sound limb could be bent, Indicated
where the trouble was.
.'His legs broken" decided half a
dozen persons at the same time.
A policeman shouldering his way
through the crowd took one look at
the limb aud came to The same con-
c'usion. Somebody else volunteered
to telephone for "a ambulance and
started away to doso. The policeman,
finding that he couldn't underst an /
what the injured man said, busted
himself in keeping the crowd back.
Meantime the crowd discussed The

Poor beggar. he'll not walk again

one sympathetic bystander.

with its numbers the sympathy grew,

surgeon hurried to the wounded mans

"Brozen leg, doc" exclaimed the

"Only thing is I can't get the fell

The surgeon knelt at the mans side,
Strengthened out the leg, felt it, turned
up the trousers and took close look,
then sprang up and faced the police

"See here. officer, if this is joke it'i

BUCKINGHAM PALACE.
Great improvements Have Been
Noted Since the Accession of
King Edward.

A complete Transformation has
come over Buckingham palace since
the accession of Edward VII. At
night it no longer presents dreary
prospect unrelieved by single CLEAN
of light. The windows are illumi-
mated, the courtyards are bright
with incandescent lamps and the
whole palace looks cheerful and in
habitable, says London exchange.
Buckingham palace stands on the
site of pleasure grounds known in
the days of Evelyn and Pepys and
frequently mentioned in their dairies
as the Mulberry gardens. The prop
erty was eventually bought by the
dukes of Buckingham, who erected
the first house, which, however, was
not very large or handsome, notwith-
standing that it was even then called
Buckingham palace. George III. pur-
chased it from the dowager duchess
of Buckingham as a residence for
Queen Charlotte, whose palace, SOM
erset house, in the Strand, was re-
quired for public purposes. After
much haggling with his majesty's
agents, the duchess parted with it
for 100000. 1t was not greatly al
tered till 1924, when it was enlarged
and almost rebuilt after designs by
Joseph Nash for the London resi-
dence of the royal family.

DEATH Turks IN KISSES.
Philadelphia Physician Warns WOm-
EN- Against Osculatory
Practice,

DR.. j. Howard Taylor, a medical
inspector of the board of health of
Philadelphia, gave a dissertation on
kissing the other afternoon before
large gathering of the Woman's
Sanitary league at 1912 Walnut
street.
From the standpoint of a sani-
tartan 1 object to the practice of
kissing" said the speaker. kissing
is most dangerous in cases of tuber-
culosis. There is just as much risk
in touching the lips of one who has
kissed a consumptive patient as in
'inhaling the atmosphere breathed
by the invalid. 1t is an easy matter
to convey disease germs on the lips
of either the sick or well. The prac-
tice of shaking hands with consump-
tives is dangerous too. The germs
cling to the cloth and the hand.
1.-THE consumptive sick, as gen.
.eral rule, are somewhat captious,
and they perhaps deem it a hardship
if denied the forms of affectionate
greeting from relatives and friends.
but the mortality in consumption is
greater than in almost any other
contagious disease. The only excep-
tions that may be mentioned are bu-
bonic plague and cholera among
filthy oriental people,"

THEY ALL EAT ICE CREAM.
Pages in the United States Senate
Have q Weakness for Frozen
Sweets.

Among the best patrons of the ice
cream booths in the vicinity of the cap
itol at Washington are the pages en-.
ployed in the senate chamber. No sem
ator ever eats ice cream in the daytime
and the few ladies who take lunch in
the restaurant rarely call for it. The
chief patrons of the frozen food are
the page boys.
The love of the youngsters for ice
cream surpasses all understanding. 1t
is purely juvenile taste and they in
dulge in it to their hearts content.
The substantial sandwich, the tooth
some pie, the ninety and nine other
things that sensible man would Sc
lect for his lunch have no attractions
for the bright little fellows. They
want ice cream and plenty of it. At
lunch time half a dozen pages can be
seen burying their noses into heaped-
up plates of ice cream, while their
faces are the very mirrors of content
ment.
If it wasn't for the pages the ice
cream freezer would have to go out Of
business.

TRAVEL IN MUSKETEER GUIsE
Three American Artists Touring Eu-
rope in Novel and Startling
Attire.

Three American artists who trav-
eled through northern Spain and
part of France on horseback, dressed
like the musketeers in Dumas novel,
after camping for three weeks in the
suburbs of Paris, have started out
again. This time they are going
through eastern Europe till Bulgaria
is reached. Their names are Carter,
Wainwright and Reynolds. Two
years ago the trio went south and
later they went touring about on
horseback. Still later the love of fun
impelled the trio to dress like mus
keteers. Despite the multitudinous
annoyances brought by the strange
costumes among the disconnected
and often hostile peasant popula-
tions, the riders visited many lands.
Wainwright says he married the
daughter of Spanish smuggler,
who, after travelling with the party
a few weeks, left her American hus-
band and returned to her people.

DIG UP OLD MASONRY.
Excavations Made for New Custom
house Lays Bare the Remains of
Old Fort Amsterdam.

The excavations made for the new
custom house at Bowling Green have
laid bare traces of masonry which COM
petent historians believe was a part
of the old Fort Amsterdam, erected
soon after the Dutch bought the is
land of Manhattan from the Indians
in 1926. The laborers found masonry
Is feet below the lowest foundations
of the buildings, which had occupied
the south side of Bowling Green for
the last century. A strong wall was
discovered. 1t was built of rock and
bricks and the joints were of mortar
made by compromising burned clam
shells with sand. Bits of shell were
found all through the mortar. The old
fort stood, or at least parts of it stood,
until 1890, when the last traces above
ground were cleared away.

Violated His own Law,

King Leopold of Belgium was lately
fined 500 francs for violating one of
his own laws by driving his auto
mobile at higher rate of speed than
permitted by statute. When arrest
ed near Belgium the king was so eff
fectually disguised by his great
coat and leather goggles that the Of
ficer did not recognize him. When
his majesty removed his riding
"specs" and unbuttoned his coat, re-
vealing his famous beard, the conster-
nation of the policeman may be i'm
agined. The officer had presence of
mind enough to do his full duty, and
was commended for his act
