ing and dining at various restaurants,
while every evening he sits admiring
her from the stalls.
He has loaded Edna with splendid
presents.
The other night she made a decided
sensation at the Savoy hotel by APP
pearing in very smart frock blazing
with all the Kuch Behar crown Jewels,
valued at nearly $4,000, 900, which were
presented to her by the rajah.
This came to the ears of the maha.
rajah, who forthwith visited Edna and,
according to the New York World de-
manded that she restore the gems,
which, besides being of immense value,
are crown property, and it is not in
the power of anyone, not excepting
himself, to give them away.
Kuch Behar is native state of Ben
gal, India, a trifle larger than Rhode
Island, very fertile and, like most In
dian states, very rich.
1t has population of about 100000
persons.
The maharajah, or sovereign, is en-
titled to salute of IS guns.-not so
many as some of the other native
rulers, but enough to show that he
is a potentate of dignity and power.

MRS. ALICE SCHWORZ.
Mississippi Lady who Is Known as
"the Singer who Sings People
Into Heaven"

Mrs. Alice Schworz has devoted the
best years of her life and all her mu-
steal talent and accomplishments to
singing for invalids in the home or
the hospital and prisons, and she is
spoken of by all who know her as
''the singer who sings people into
Heaven"
Mrs. Schworz does not know her.
self how she obtained this rare gift
of soothing and impressing the dying
so that the tortured senses find i'm
mediate relief, and the sufferer passes
away in perfect peace on the wings
of song. She sings like one in a
trance, unconscious of her surround
ings, not even aware of the words she
has chosen, her eyes turned upward
with rapt expression, while all who
hear her are dominated and thrilled
by the power and sweetness of her
music. In the wards of the hospital
the sick listen as if they were hear
ing celestial singing, and to those
who are not fatally ill, it brings
strength and repose, like an electric
current. Physicians have declared
the effect to be hypnotic, and have

L. Oxnard stepped into the beet
sugar business at a time when the
experiments in California were all
but failures, and by his persistent
energy has developed the industry
in that state until the California fac
tories are producing annually sugar
and by-products valued at $3,500,000,
and is paying to the farmers of that
state for beets used more than ST.
100000 annually. In his California
factories there is invested the neat
little sum of $40, ,519, which is
practically one-half of all the CAPT
tai invested in the industry in the
United States. He gives employment
to more than 1000 people, and pays
in wages each year more than $780,
600.
Mr.. Oxnard has a beautiful home
at Oxnard, California, where he lives
in princely style when in that state,
though much of his time is spent
at his business headquarters in New
York city, where he can be in closer
touch with the financial interests
connected with the industry in which
he is interested to such a large ex-
tent.

Two sickroom warnings.

In recent lecture on first aid to the
injured the speaker emphasized two
cautions that are so commonly disre-
garded as to be well worth repeating
in print The first is, never rub per-
son with liniment that has been put
on a flannel cloth, for the roughneSs of
the flannel and the friction on the
skin, with the penetrating ingredients
of the liniment, will easily make an
abrasion of the skim producing con-
dition that may take weeks to heal.
The second warning is that in any con-
dition of Inconsistencies the hot OBJ
ject applied, bag, bottle, brick or what
ever it may be, must be wrapped in
flannel or cloth before it is brought
into contact with the flesh of the per
son to be treated. A severe burn is
often made by thoughtless attendant
who puts a too hot water bottle next
to the skin while the patient is uncon-
scious or unable to move away.

mission in the Eighteenth infantry
of the regular army. His commission
was dated May Ia, and on May 30, two
years later, came his promotion to a
captaincy. He held a captains COM
mission in the Twenty-eighth infantry
until the close of the war, and with the
reorganization and reduction of the
regular establishment he was trans
ferred to the Iwenty-seventh infantry,
and was later transferred again to
the Ninth infantry. On January &c,
1888, came another promotion when
he was made a major in the Eighth
infantry, which he held until January
1, 1888, when he was promoted to lieu
tenant colonel of the Seventh infantry
On July 4, 1892, he was placed in com
mand of the Twenty fifth infantry, with
the rank of colonel, and this command
he continued to hold until the breaking
out of the war with Spain, when he
was commissioned brigadier general
of volunteers, and served as such
throughout that conflict.
He is a native of Ohio, and has an
honorable career in connection with
the long years of Indian warfare in
the west, which followed the close of
the civil war. He is now brigadier
general in the regular establishment,
and is nearing the retiring age.

has IN his realm. The beginnings of
his fortune came from the tea bust
ness. He purchased estates in Ceylon,
and has kept constantly adding to his
holdings there until to-day he is prob
ably the largest tea grower in the
world. 1t is due to his efforts that the
price of good quality of tea has been
reduced to point within the reach
of the poorer people. In this country
he is known in business way because
of his connection with the packing in
dustry in Chicago and his line of re-
frigerator cars. So great have his in
terests in these two industries be-
come that he has at times seriously
considered removing to the United
States, and it is only love for his ma
tive land that keeps him in Great
Britain.
Queen Victoria made Sir Thomas a
knight in 1898, in recognition of his
widespread philanthrophies and his
notable benefactions to English work
ingmen. His new honors come as
mark of personal favor from King Ed
ward, who has for years considered
him one of his closest friends.

PRESIDENT OF THE CANAL COMMISSION

in position to give the government
the services of an expert upon the
subject.
Admiral Walkers connection with
the navy dates from October 5, 1850,
when he was appointed as cadet to
the naval academy at Annapolis, from
which he graduated in 1856. During
the civil war he served in the block
aiding squadron and in the naval cam
paigns of the Mississippi river as a
lieutenant commander. He played
a conspicuous part in the capture of
New Orleans and in the operations
against Vicksburg. In the Mississippi
river campaign he commanded the
ironclad Baron de Kalb, and later
commanded the naval battery at

Iowa at an early age, and was ap-
pointed to the navy from the Hawk
eye state.

Teaching a. Parrot.

"There are two ways" said bird
dealer, ''of teaching parrot to talk.
One way is to put him in darkened
room, to sit in corner and to repeat
over and over again the word you
want him to acquire. A clever parrot
will learn a word or a phrase after
some 400 or 500 repetitions, while for
some it takes a week or more. You
must keep still in the room. No sounds
from within or without the house
save your voice, monotonously repeat
ing the phrase to be acquired, must
reach the parrots ear. Some people
teach their birds in a well lighted
room, speaking from place of con-
cealment in a closet or behind door
This method is not so good, because in
the light the parrots attention is dis
tracted."

His first military experience came
as a sergeant in Company A, Sixth
Ohio infantry, which was mustered
into the United States service April
20, 1861. 1t did not take long for him
to show his worth to those looking
for men to fill responsible positions,
and in less than month from the day
of his enlistment in the volunteers
he was given a first lieutenant's com

Queen Victoria. She is, therefore, a
niece of King Edward and as much
English as German. But she loves
Greece, and in the palace of the king
of Greece, her father-in-law, she is thor
oughly at home. She likes the beau
tiful Queen Olga, her mother-in-law,
and has shared with her many public
triumphs.
All the grandchildren of Queen Vic
toria have literary aspirations, and
Crown Princess Sophia is no excep-
ton. She has written a little and
done it very well. And now she longs
to appear more extensively in public
literature. She has undertaken the
writing of book. Just when it will
be done no one knows, not even the
crown princess herself. But the fact
that she is writing it makes her in
teresting. "She longs to join the
ranks of studious queens and be
known as Sophia the literary" says a
court lady.

The Ontario department of agricul-
ture is conducting extensive expert
ments in sugar-beet raising this sea-
son. These will be conducted at St.
Catharines, Brussels, and Markham,
and perhaps at Renfrew, Orangeville,
and Guelph as well. About 80 farmers
are raising beets at each point. This
is the third successive year of sugar
beet experiments in Ontario. The re-
suits have been very satisfactory, and
an effort is being made to ascertain
if the soil is generally adapted for beet
raising.
