PRINCE AS A COMPRESSOR.
The King of SaxOny's Son Is the Only
Royal Priest in All
Europe.

Prince Max, of Saxony's officiation
as confessor to the murderer Chat
ton, who was guillotined at Fribourg
recently, recalls the fact that King
Georges youngest son is the only
royal priest in Europe. His royal
highness wears religious garb and
leads life of seclusion and severe
self-denial, says Dresden report.
The prince, who is 80, has been
spiritually inclined ever since he was
a boy. When just out of his teens he
came to London to live and for several
years worked among the poorest folk
in the slums of the east end. With the
experience gained, he went back to
Dresden, and, in 1885, "took orders"
After that he studied hard, got to be
doctor of law and of theology, and.
not long ago, was appointed professor
of canonic law and liturgy at the Fri
bourg university.
That he is as earnest a man of God
as if he were peasants instead of a
kings son, Prince Max proved in the
recent Citation affair. The murderer
though only %, was confirmed
scoundrel, who had completed long
record of crime by killing with an ak
his pretty cousin, girl of II. Assoc
as Prince Max heard that Citation was
to die he went to him. He remained in
the murderer's cell all night, received
his confession and walked with him
to the puillotine.

TUMBLED INTO FORTUNE.
Old Irish Woman Ragpicker Becomes
an Heiress by the Death of
/ Cousin.

} Tt is doubtful if a fortune ever tum-
bled into the lap of person less like
ly to use it to advantage than the $780,
600 which the United States supreme
court recently awarded to 65-year-old
Hannah Callaghan, of Cork, as her
share in the estate of her cousin, John
Sullivan, who died in Seattle, Wash.
From the accompanying picture OF
Hannah Callaghan you can form
pretty accurate idea of what sort of
u person she is. Wrinkled, haggard,
with narrow, pointed nose, thin lips,
a bitter tongue and an aggressive dis
position, the woman who has just in
herited 100000 earned her living I'M
til few days ago as ragplcker. For
wears she has made her home in
squalid little room in narrow
alley appropriately named Crone's
lane, in Cork's worst slum. She
began life as crochet worker,
and once earned as much as SIS
a week. Then she got to be scrub
woman and made less, and of late
wears she has collected bones, sold
fruit and generally lived from hand to
mouth. She has been somewhat par
tial to gin. When the news reached
Hannah Callaghan the other day that
she had inherited half of John Sulli-
vans Northumberland Corcoran, a
poor Dublin artisan got the other half
the old woman was so bewildered
that she could hardly realize what it
meant to her. She heard that her
cousin had died intestate, but had
thought so little of her own chances
of getting share of his estate that
when American lawyers came to her
several months ago and offered to
push her claim she made no trouble
over signing an agreement that they
should take half of any sum they
succeeded in getting awarded to her.
This does not mean, however, that
the old woman was feeced by her
American attorneys. For six months
they have worked like beavers to
get her Inheritance, and the endless
trouble they took and the ingenuity
they manifested certainly entitle

NOTES OF THE MODES.
Coats and Wraps That Will De In
Vogue with Feminine Fol-
lowers of the Fashions.

Among the variety of styles in tailor
costumes presented for winter wear
are the strictly conventional modes,
with trim, closely fitted Substituted
jackets and plain skirts somewhat
hortened-faultless, however, in all
the minor but essential characteristics
of tailor gown, and lacking nothing
that is really necessary to the compile
ton of fashionable but simple tailor
creation, says the New York Post.
There are also the new French models,
with their open-fronted jackets that
allow of a constant and varied Change
If blouses, vests, silk shirt waists, or
glove-ftting Louis waistcoats, guimpe,
yoke, or surplice effects, braid trim
mings showing vine or scroll patterns,
or applique designs in self colors, OF in
rich oriental melanges. The familiar
tailor coats will have, this season,
number of rivals in the form of basque
bodices, fancy blouses, Elton jackets
finished with slot seams, and with or
without the peplum effect below the
waist, double-breasted box boleros,
Trouville coats with small postillion
belt, Monte Carlo models with fiat
shawl collar and pagoda sleeves, tailor
blouses with slot seams, duchess front
closing, and modified bishop sleeves;
three-quarter English shapes with
cutaway fronts, and Muscovite styles
with diagonal fronts, fitted backs, and
picturesque collars and sleeves.
This season there is great diversity
in the length of both street and fancy
wraps, those now set forth grading
from, the enveloping Camisards, redin-
gotes, Empire cloaks, Newmarkets,
raglans, and surtouts, to the "dress"
styles in Louis XIV. and XIV. effects.
the basquins, theater coats, ETC.; finish
ing the list with the still fashionable
bolero, Russian, French Guard, and
other military styles which are still
used.
Electric gray is one of the newest of
the new tints of this fashionable color
1t is not so becoming as it is novel, for
there is not hint of either rose,
| cream, or fawn in the shade. Geranium,
Roman fiamingo, and claret reds are
used among the colors to relieve gowns
for the early autumn, formed wholly
of electric gray, for it is metallic dye
more eXacting than any worn since
the days of the zinc gray that was the
regulation color for brides travelin
costumes. There is no necessity, how
ever, for selecting this particular color
other than that it heads the list of the
! gray dyes, for there are beautiful oDaI
frost, silver fawn, swallow, winter sky,
sea mist, and oyster grays, and nuns
gray with tinge of cream in the tint
all of which combine most effectively
with pink ecru, or old-rose accessories,
or make up well with mauve, ruby red,
or amethyst. Other fall shades of gray
melt into sage and very delicate olive
tones that admit of touches of blue,
geranium red, or primrose yellow.

them to pretty stable fee il not
as large one as they have. gained.
Since Hannah Callahan became an
heiress a clergyman in her neigh
borhood has been looking after her
to see that no one takes advantage
of her. The precaution is necessary,
for the old Irish woman, who hasn't
yet decided to leave the dirty little
room in which she has lived for so
long, is being harried by people who
have suddenly discovered themselv
to be RELATIVES" of hers, disinter-
ested souls who would be willing to
assist her to invest her money as
well as gallant suitors who love her
for herself alone. John Sullivan, the
builder of the fortune which Cor
coran and Hannah Callaghan have in
herited, was born in the same Cork
slum in which the old rag and bone
picker has lived so long. He became
sailor and finally was shipwrecked
on the coast of the state of Wash
ington. He built himself cabin and
afterward second one, which he
rented to man who happened along.
Finally he had whole village of
shanties which he owned, but lust
as it was beginning to bring him
in little something in the way of
rent the whole settlement burned
down.
Sullivan still owned the land, how
ever, and he rebuilt upon it and
eventually, as one of the founders of
Seattle, grew rieh.-Chicago Chron-

THERE ARE STYLES IN BREAD.
bakers Always Trying to Introduce
Something New in Shapes
of Their LOaves,

Styles change in bread as in eyery-
thing else, and shapes that were more
or less familiar ten years ago are now
not made at all, says New York ex-
change.
Every baker tries to have something
distinctive about his output, and al
most every baker thinks his bread is
the best. The housewife makes wheat
bread out of one kind of flour, the
baker makes it generally of three, two
brands of spring wheat flour and one
of winter wheat mixed, with the re-
suit of making finer, whittier, smooth
er loaf.
Graham flour is made of the entire
grain of the wheat ground; gluten
flour of that part of the wheat grain
which contains the gluten. Rye-gra-
ham flour is made of the entire grain
OF the rye; the rye flour used in or
binary 'rye" bread is usually mixed
with wheat -four in proportions vary
ing from little wheat up to half
wheat.
Of the bread sold in American bak-
cries about IS per cent. is wheat, the
remaining Is per cent. being divided
about equally among graham, rye and
gluten. In German bakeries the pro-
portion of rye bread sold is very much
greater.
Bakers are all the time getting up
new shapes in bread, and there can
scarcely be said to be any absolutely
standard form. Perhaps as nearly
standard as any is that known as
New England" this is an oblong
loaf, with square corners.
Almost all of these breads are made
in different sizes; the New England
is made in at least five, which are
sold at five cents, eight cents, ten
cents, 25 cents and accents; usually the
30-cent loaf is made to weigh a trifie
more than three ten-cent loaves would
weigh. The smallest New England loaf
is the one most sold.
Breads for hotels and restaurants
are generally made in special shapes.
They use a shape corresponding to
New England, and many restaurants
that don't want so much crust take a
bread that is made in loaves about IS
inches in length and not very wide.
baked closely together, so that the
loaves have crust on the ends only.

In Sweden, a committee was recent
ly appointed by the government for
the purpose of ascertaining how
many lours children of various ages
ought to sleep in order that they
may be able to study properly Ac-
cording to the report forwarded to
the minister of education, children
who are four years old should sleep
~ hours; children who are seven
years old, II hours; children who are
nine years old, ten hours; children
who are from 12 to IA years old, from
nine to ten hours, and those who are
from IA to Fl years old, from nine to
ten hours. 1t further points out that

have invented for successful selfish

the base ones which we contempt

at is often held that it is better
to have trouble in ones youth than
in ones middle age; the fresh heart,
it is thought, is stronger to bear
grief. But this is not the case. y
fresh heart is also an immature one;
it is tender, impressionable, unsea-
soned, altogether too delicate for
hard blows. No sorrow is so bitter,
because it is so little expected, or Sc
unmitigated, because it is so little
understood, as the sorrow in a young
mind. The world at once seems
squalid, Providence unjust and when
the sense of suffering injustice begins
to dominate a soul at it's first flight
the wings grow heavy, the way looks
dark with unknown terrors and the
ultimate goal is considered as some
probable mockery, cruel and DESC

''In New York I encountered fab

Zone hears that religion once was
able to invest even hypocrisy with 4

candor of modern souls would be
