| BERLIN. Sept 20.--General Corbin and
other Americans who have witnessed and
expressed their admiration of the Ger
man army manoeuvres. in which tho
kaiser himself played so gallant a part.
have also been much Interested In regu-
Iations for the comfort OF soldiers OF the
empire white IN the field.
The Germans manage this matter much
better than the British. who house their
soldiers in neat little bell tents, which,.
besides being close and uncomfortable.
are cumbersome for transport. Each
German soldier carries among his other
1mpediments a piece Of canvas about
yard and a half square. two tent pegs a.
tent stick In three pieces to support the
roof, and some string.
When the time comes to form camp
the canvas squares are buttoned to-
gether. the tent pegs are stuck In the
ground. the sticks are joined together
to form the ridge pole. and when a cou-
pie of dozen or more pieces have been
deducted for the officers. the men creep
into what is left and sleep packed like
sardlnes-but they seem to enjoy it.
The system is beautifully elastic; two
men can form a complete shelter. or a
whole company may put their tent pieces
together.
Holiday Of Imperial Children.
The German Empress and her two
youngest children. Prince Joachim and
Princess Louise. appeared TO have en-.
Joyed and benefited much by their visit
to Cadinia. where they were while the
Emperor was yachting.
The Imperial children's holiday was
made especially enjoyable by the ARRIVAL,
OF a bean tiful little carriage and tiny
pair of ponies, sent by the Sultan to
Princess Louise. There is probably /,
nothing that this little royal parsonage
more enjoys than driving as fast as She
possibly can. 1t is a Joke In the Kaiser.s
household that the little Princess prob

LONDON, Sept. 2e-The Gladys Deacon
affair has naturally set the tongues of
the gossips wagging about the matrimon-
ial future Of the German Crown Prince.
In the highways and byways of the Eng
lish court there has. for some time past,
been whispered a hope that the Princess
Margaret, Of Connaught, be destined TO
share the throne of the Kaiser that is TO
be.
The alliance would be very welcome to
the English people. who recognize that
our princesses will have to depend more
and more on marriages into the Protest
ant families of Europe, and such an ar
rangement would not be without its ele-
ment of romance. Moreover. it is be-
Nered that as father, William II. would
welcome an alliance that would have the
advantage Of avoiding many political pit
falls.
Unhappily, however. Wilhelm is not on
IL viator. but also iinperator. and he
realizes very keeniy the Importance OF
consolidating the pretty German king
do,ns by attaching them TO his throne
by ties of family. For this reason people
are not sanguine that the example of the
Crown Prince Fritz. who welded "Pus-
sette," will be followed by his grandson
an namesake But the next year or
swo will decide all that.
Washington's Ancestral Home.
A report. which is apparently, not
without foundation, has been in circu-
lation lately TO the effect that an Ameri-
can has purchased Sulgrave Manor

down and re-erectcd in America.
Inquiries made both in the neighborhood
and in London have, SO far failed 10

ually taken place. The tenant had had
no notice but few days since the re-
port received something like confirmation,
when party of Americans visited the
house, and requested to be shown over.

rich American, who intended to rebuild
1t in the States. They stated that the
mouse only and not the estate was chang

BERLIN. Sept 2o.-When an American
inventor demonstrated that paper was
the best material from which to make
car wheels, that cheap and ductile sub
stance seemed to have reached its eX-
IRENE limit of usefulness. The fact that
efforts to make servceable boots and
shoes Of paper have not proved success

at Dressau from reaping sudden and
large profits from paper slipper inspi-

This manufacturer Is overwhelmed
with orders for his new articN OF foot

ROME, Sept. 2o.-There is high court
authority for the statement that the
King of Italy will pay an official visit
to Paris near the beginning of the year.
The French Embassy here has forward
ed the news TO it's Government, and there
is much gossip on the subject.
Some diplomatfsts express the convtc-
tIea that such visit following the Kings
trip to Germany and the spectacle OF his
extremely cordial, even fraternal. rela-
tons with the Kaiser. will not inspire the
French people with enthusiasm. But 1t
Is said that the Kings visit to Paris Will
be a much more gorgeous affair. and cal

that France has been sighted by being
second on the Kings visiting list.

The priory was dissolved in a great

Sulgrave. with certain lands belonging TO

George Washington was descended, and
who, probably. built the manor house, or
those portions of it which are earliest In

Queen an Expert Photographer.
All the world knows that Queen Alex

pensioner as we'll as a photographer. AL
though he is more than seventy years
old, he is frequently called upon to take
private pictures for the King and Queen.
None of these special photographs is
ever published. They go into the colec-

Queens own work. and like the latter

Had His Name Wrong.
The English are great at facts, and If
there is anything that puts them out OF
temper. in fact. out of all countenance. 1t
is to see some English word not perfectly
proper appear in newspaper articles
which are devoted to English subjects on
the Continent.

book on the Egyptian campaign:

author who spells Wolseley with q sup

very few celebrated men OF letters who

Naturally the English, who. whatever
their shortcomings may be, are always
correct. decided that II. Tame stood for
Henri Tame. and that settled it. All
his lifetime he was thus called by the
English, and now I read. ten years after
his DEATH in the paper of that most
correct English writer. Clement Scott:

The fun Of it is it amounts to moth

that only two Republicans were put

being Democrats whom the negroes
have never voted for anyhow. The
report follows:
After the gratuitious insults offered
to the colored delegates duly elected

gates, by the convention composed
mainly OF revenue collectors, deputy
collectors, storekeepers and post
masters, United States court officers,
their employees, Populists and red

and large number Of negroes went
to the Piedmont hotel in Greensboro
on August 2Sth, 1902, and after an
address by Scotland Harris, a duly
