for his change he drew out the cork and

The approaching marriage of Don Mar

Pauline Bonaparte was Lady Gwendoline

extraordinary demonstration, the students
of the university insisting upon dragging

THE RAILWAY CAR ..JIGGER. y
An Arrangement for the Purpose of
Preventing OvercrOwding.

Putting more passengers into a railway
car than il can seat is not purely
American custom. OF late there has been
a good deal of complaint by business men
coming into London from the suburbs on
steam roads that the carriages are over
crowded. And In Self-defence a few of
the passengers have recently made use of
a simple mechanical means to exclude
those whom they regard as intruders.
1t should be borne ia mind that railway
carriages abroad differ materially from
those in this country in their interior ar
engagements The seats are arranged
crosswise. two in a compartment. and the
passengers enter through a door on the
side. a seat viii accommodate only three
or four persons. The seats face each 9TH
er, and are nearer together than those of
an American street car. If anyone enters
and stands between the seats he causes
as much inconvenience as If he were to
stand between passengers who occupy
the cross seats in a New York elevated
railway car. No wonder that John Bull

(ffom the ~. James GdZettet
The most general is that known as the
salic system, under which women are
completely excluded. This is the rule in
Belgium. Sweden, and Norway, Italy
Denmark. and Germany. Then there is
the German-Dutch system, under which
males in all degrees of relationship take
precedence of females, the throne passing
to the female line only in case of the
extinction Of all the male lines. however,
remote This is the rule in Holland
from which the law takes its name

States. The third system is our own
