CURIOUS PRIVILEGES.
Some of the Prcrogatives which Em-
bnssudors May Exercise.

A curious privilege of an ambassador
Is that lie and he alone when dismiss
ed may turn his back to the sovereign
to whose court he is accredited. The
mode of procedure is as follows:
When the ambassadors audience Is
over, he waits to be dismissed by the
sovereign. When dismissed. the en-
bassador bows, retires three PAGES.
bows again, retres another three
PAGES, bows third time, turns on his
heels and walks to the folding doors
But It is felt that more polite methods
should obtain when the relgnlng SOW
ereign Is woman. To turn his back
is to be dlscourteous, to walk back
ward Is to resign n privilege. The en-
bassador retires sideways. like a crab
He keeps one eye on the sovereign and
with the other tries to see the door,
He thus shows politeness to the sov.
ereign and at the same time retains
one of his privileges. AS the embassa.
dor is usually an old gentleman. often
short sighted. he sometimes fails to
reach the door and comes In collision
with the wall.
Another privilege Of ambassadors Is
the right OF being ushered into the
royal presence through folding doors.
both OF which must be flung wide
open. No one except an ambassador
can claim this privilege. The most
any nonembassadoria person can ex-
pect Is that one of the leaves shall be
opened to him. The reason for this
privilege is not known. There are GER
tain irreverent suggestions that have
been made, but we prefer to be silent
with regard to them.
Another privilege. capable of causing
great Inconvenience Is the embassa-
doris right of admission to the SOW.
erelgn at any hour of the day or night.
Thus the minister representing some
little bankrupt state could go down to
Windsor and demand an audience at
4 o'clock In the morning. The audience
would have to be granted. though 1t
could be delayed by the exercise OF ifi-
genuity.-Chambers Journal.

COLLEGE STUDENTS HURT
Were Jumped Upon and Beaten I'm
mercifully by Two Fellows
Sunday Night.

Sunday evening as Daniel Fidreoff
and George Hronich were gong home
from the Salvation Army meeting they
were set upon by two cigarmakers, who
work in Bailey's factory. Young Fid
reotf stated that the cigarmakers tack
led HronIch first, for which they had
not the slig htest cause. They struck
him in the face and pummeled him up
severely. Fidreotf said he went to the
assistar ce Of his friend when they gave
him couple Of hard knocks in the face
and then run. The fight occurred at
the corner OF Main and First streets
aud there is plenty of blood On the
sidewalk to testify that Hronich was
badly beaten. Fidreotf and Hronich
are both University students, the lat
er having been sick for the past two
weeks and yesterday vas the first time
he had been out of the house and was
natural, quite weak and unable to de.
fend himself.
The c cjgarmakers are young boys
about IS years OF age and it is reported
that they have been doing this kind o
work ia the city before but nothing has
ever been done about it, probably be
cause i was not reported.

Again has the mischievious airgun
got in its work and Floyd Hill, the lit.

Third street, is minus an eye. He and
several o;her little BOYS were oil sying
with an airgun Saturday and one
OF the listle Gormley boys WAS shooting
at mark, when Floyd stopped down in
front OF tn mark when the gun was ois
charged. The ball went into his eye
entirely destroying the sight.
DR.. Rooa was called to relieve the
suffering uI the boy, but could not ex-
tract the bullet at this tine. He stated
tina, ths. little boy would lose the sight
OF the eye.
1t SEEM that something ought to be
done to suppress these airguns for they
are causing great deal of trouble in

tenlionally grow little careless. They
are dangerous weapons in the hands of
the mex perienced and there will be ac-
cidents to report just AS long as they
are used by the boys.

There were about thirty-fve couples in
attendance and from the first to the

A. WALPOLE BADLY INJURED.
Difficulty Over Possession of a Cow
Led to His Receiving
Injuries.

AL WaIpoe was badly injured Sun.
day afternoon by being struck severe
blow by Charles Greene, the fight oc
curing on the farm n few miles east of
town.
Some two or three wears ago Mr..
WalpOle lost q calf from pasture near
the city and never found any track OF it
until some time ago when he was in
formed hat it was among the herd of
Chas. Greene. He has had some con.
versation with Mr. Greene, so we are
informed, and rather than have any
trouble about it he would turn the COW
over to Walpole. Mr.. Greene said that
he had turned the COW over to his
brother, S. T. Greene, in the division
OF the cattle, and hal it was now in his
possession Il tuat for Walpole to talk
with S I Greene about it Yesterday
af ernoon Mr. Wslpole, we are informed,
went TO the S. T. Greene's place, and
had with him young boy. While
talking to S. T. Greene Walpole said he
saw Charlie coming towards himand be.
fore he had chance to say anything to
him that Charlie struck him blow in
the face. AS q result of the blow Wal
poles jaw was broken, both eyes black
ened, his nose fractured and confusion
on his head He was placed in the bug
gy in an insensible condition and the
boy who accom- panied him drove to
town and took him home. DR.. Bobb
was called in to dress his wounds. Dur
ing the night it was feared that he
would not recover.
We understand that the cause for the
assault OF Mr.. Greene on Walpole was
due to the statement made that Wal
pole was charging him with having
stolen the COW. Mr.. Walpole states
that he bought the calf of L. E. Stair
when it was eight months old and thai
Stair few days ago went to the Greene
farm and without having the animal
pointed out to him recognized the COW
as the animal he sold to Walpole.
1t was very unfortunate affair and

Trains Collide Near Sanford.

The morning train from this place on
Wednesday bound for Sanford collided
head On with Plant system freight train
between st. Johns river drawbridge and
Monroe station on her way from San
ford Two locomotives were pretty bad
ly wrecked, also several freight cars and
the postal and express car were smashed
up or damaged. Luckily no lives were
lost nor really serious injuries resulted.
Conductor Turner, of the passenger train,
had his left arm broken by the shock of
the collision, and Postal Clerk Collins
collar bone was fractured. They are in
the railway hospital at Sanford receiving
the best of care and attention. We are
informed that the engineer on the Plant
freight is to blame. Ii is said that his
train was several hours behind time, he
had been on duty long time and had
forgotten that the East Coast train had
right Of way.

j. C. Norwood Burned Out.

The dwelling house of ]. G. Norwood,
at Standard, Marion county, was burned
with all it contained, Monday afternoon,
March 4th, between l and 2 O'Clock. 1t
is thought to have caught from the
sparks of railroad engine, as train had
stopped within few feet of the house a
few minutes before. A strong southwest
wind was blowing, and the house was
quickly consumed. Nothing was saved
hut one chair and birdcage. No insur-
ance.
The family was from home at the time,
except Mr.. Norwood, who was engaged
at his store near by. Mr.. Norwood was
formerly a resident and merchant in tt
tusville, aud also lived for a while al
Sharpes. His friends here are sorry to
learn of his misfortune.
