So smoothly have British dynastic mat
ters run for many years that not until
the death Of Queen Victoria did anybody
remember that there is claimant to
the British throne, yet it appears that
such is the case. She is the Princess Mary
Theresa Dorothea, wife Of Prince Louis
Of Bavaria, and she regards herself as
being rightfully Mary w Of England
Her claim rests upon the fact that she
is direct descendant Of a sister Of
James II, who was deposed There are Il
few "Legitimists' in Great Britain who
think her claim a just one but their in
Auence is SO weak and number so small
that no attention whatever IS paid to
them.

States Attorney Deneen of Chicago
claims that that city leads all other
cities Of the world in crime" Quoting
statistics to bear him out, he asserted
in an address recently that neither New
York nor London had so much crime in
proportion to population as Chicago. Len
iency in prosecution, he said. was largely
responsible for the condition. Many con-
iirmed criminals escape punishment time
and again in police courts through polit-
ical influence, and so grow to feel con-
tempt for the agencies of the law. About
one-third of the prisoners held for the
grand jury are discharged, he said.

There is trouble ahead for twentieth
century bachelors, according to Dorothy
Dix, writer for the New York Journal.
She says the women are going to take
hand in the love-making themselves, and
be wooers as well as wooed They pur-
pose to overthrow the old precedents
which forced them to wait for the men to
propose. They are going to take the in
itiative. There will be no dilly-dallying
and there will be little hope for escape
when a woman who means business asks
a man to marry her Suppose she weeps
when he says he can be only brother
TO her? What man will be able to re-
sist when he sees himself such a good
thing that women cry for him?"

A bright congressman has discovered
that. under a provision Of the pending
army bill the President would be liable
TO give the soldier his beer if he want
ed to, Notwithstanding the enactment of
the ant-canteen law. The provision re-

the issue Of "substitutive equivalent ar

Of tho regulation ration whenever, in his
opinion. economy and a due regard for
the health and comfort of the troops

the President think bottle Of beer was
needed as a part of the ration, he could
substitute It in place Of some other part
Of the ration. j is hardly likely, how

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Journal of Commerce
says: American buyers of British ex-
chequer bonds are painfully surprised to
learn that the income tax is deducted
before the interest is paid, aud the return
on the investment is not quite what they
expected. AS nothing about the income
tax was said in the prospectus some Of
them are disposed to feel that they have
been badly used. To Englshmen the in
come tax is so much a matter of course
that it was unnecessary to remind them Of
it; Americans are so little accustomed
to the income tax that It did not occur
to them to ask any questions"
The New York Commercial says: THE
Guelphs have been mostly longlived: but
even should Edward VII attain the age Of
his mother-which is hardly probable-h.s
reign would span only "A score or SO Of
years. He is already past the prime and
vigor of life when most mems ambitions
lead them to originate and to do. The

their sovereign is force in their affairs.

1Eaine's Pulp Industry.

Twenty years ago Maine had only
seven pulp mills, and less,than 10000
was invested in the industry in that
state. while there were twelve paper
mills, with about 50 100000 capital.
Now there are about sixty mills, equally
divide between pulp and paper, WI h
$40 600 600 invested and an annual pro-
duct worth S2O,OOO,00O. Over seven
thousand men are employed all through
the year, at wages averaging about
81 60 day, so that the total paid IN
wages approximate $3,500,000 annual
". In addition to this, enough is paid
for labor out side the mills to bring the
total up to So 900 900. The spruce legs
to iced these mills cost about 50 75O, 600
The daily output OF pulp and
paper is now about twenty one hundred
tons, and this will soon be increased to
twenty-five hundred tons, placing Maine,
it is said, at the head of all pulp and
paper producing states. Even now the
pulp mills are eating up nearly altof
the Penobscot logs, the immen'e mill at
requiring about 10000 QUO
feet yearly, and this holds good through
out the state. 1t is likely hat the pulp
mills will take 275 100000 feet OF the
$4,000 900 10 100000 600 Ieet OF logs
cut in Name this winter, and it is estl
mated that ten years from now Is per
cent of the log crop will go into pulp.

MEN, wonEN AND EVENTS.



One OF the closing acts OF congress was
the ratification OIL measure that mad
passed the legislatures OF Virginia and
Tennessee by which the latter state con-
| ferred on the Old Dominion, narrow
strip of land which comprises a portion
OF the Main street in Bristol, city
which is about equally divided between
the two states. On January % the Leg
islature at Nashville passed an act EMIT
led ian act to cede to the State OF Flr-
ginia a certain narrow strip OF territory
belonging to the State of Tennessee and
five days later Governor Benton McMi
lin signed it. A certified copy OF the bill
was sent to Richmond, and on February
9 an act was approved by Governor
Hoge Tyler accepting the session, at
the same time declaring that 1T is the
opinion of this General Assembly that
the proper line at the point in question
is at least as far south as the centre line
OF said Main street" 1t seems that the
hitherto line has run along the northern
gutter of the street, but the recent read,
justment of the border, places 1t in the
centre of the same street. The trans
action in itself is of but little general in
terest but it calls into use constitution
al power that is exercised rarely, that Is:
The ratification of the cession Of terri
tory by one of the states Of the Union to
another state. The third section of Art
icle ". of the constitution provides that
mo new state shall be formed or erect
ed within the jurisdiction of any other
state; nor any state may be formed by |
the junction Of two or more states or
parts Of states. without the consent OF
the Legislatures of the states concerned |
as well as of Congress"
Another similar case has been under |
for some time by which it is
that that the state OF Florida
cede to Alabama that portion of her ter
ritory west ofthe AppaachicOla river. A
glance at the map OF that section OF the
country, suggests at once the PRESENT un-
natural divisions OF the two states aud
