Children of the Prince of Wales.

Nothing has tended so much to the
popularity of the new Prince and Prin-
cess of Wales as the children with
which they have been blessed. The
present king was Prince of Wales for
such a length of time that even yet
people find it hard to think of another,
and then the marriage of Princess May
to Prince Edward was not at all looked
upon with favor by the people. She
had been the betrothed of his brother,
and even though there was no other
princess available, and Queen Victoria
sanctioned, indeed pomoted the match,
there was nevertheless a something
about it that did not commend itself to
folk in whose veins royal blood did not
flow and who cared little for the nice
ties of the eXigencies of royalty. And
again, the Teck family was always
looked upon rather askance.
The sailor prince himself stood high
in the affections of the people. because
he was looked upon as a chip of the old
block. This was a saving element and
now that three sons and a daughter
have come to the royal couple, and that
they are in fact Prince and Princess of
Wales, the people have taken the fam
lily to their hearts. -{.-
The young princes and the princess
are usually dressed in sailor suits, the
most popular garb in England for little
ones. The two elder boys, Edward,
who is the heir presumptive to the
throne, and Albert, are already superb
hOrSemen, and the little Princess Vic
toria is quite as much at home in the
saddle, riding astride, like her broth

NO STANDARD OF EGG PRoDUc.
TON.

There is as yet no standard of egg
laying toward which the poultry raiser
can work. He does not know how
many eggs hen should lay. The
men that judge the poultry do not
know how many eggs a hen should lay
to be good and valuable fowl. The
work of breeding toward a standard
for flesh producers is Well under way.
1t mas at least half a century's start
of the work of evolving a standard for
egg laying. This will require the work
Of many breeders through many years.
The road is long and the labor Of
traversing it arduous, but the goal.
when reached, will repay all labor.
Doubtless the next generation will see
a we'll defined standard for the iudg-
ing of fowls especially adapted to the
production of eggs. At the present
time the standards for such fowls are
made by their external points. ,Inafact,
a good layer is very apt to lose a. con-
test IN the egg-laying classes at tpoul-
try shows because the act Of laying
many eggs puts her out Of shape so

Somewhat Reserved.
Blanche Lady Ampthill, who was one
of the queens bridesmaids, has long
been a popular widow in her own par
t1cular set-a cultured coterie more or
less holding itself aloof from ultra
smart society. Lady Ampthill is a
member of the Villiers family and a
sister of Lord Clarendon and Lady
Derby. Like the rest of her family,
she was faVorite at court from her
Juvenile days, and she was bedcham-
Der woman to Queen Victoria for f1f-
teen years.
The marvellous dowager duchess of
Abercorn, mother of thirteen children,
and grandmother and great grand
mother of many we'll known men and
women, is a widow who, in spite of her
advanced age, has not relaxed her in

the demise of the latter, his widow

English Widows Have
Royal Good Time

The widow of today has certainly
conspicuously good time. In appear
ance she is a perpetual evergreen, her
complexion and hair are always 'tri-
umphs,'. and she is never known to
exhibit even the slightest tendency to
embonpoint She has the tact and
experience of a matured woman of
the world, and at the same time
quite girlish gayety of manner. The
widow is not only free lance, but is
generally possessed of such ample
means that she can trot off to Egypt
If she is threatened with a cold in her
mead, or can put in a few days at
Monte Carlo If assaulted by the blues"
She can attire herself in elaborate
Paris creations and cover herself with
jeWelry-measures that would be con-
Sidered bad form for the debutante,
and that would be out of the question
for the haggled mother of expensive
daughters. The widow of today has
indeed ceased to describe herself as
the Dowager Lady So-and- So-a hum
dred years ago she was generally al
luded to brutally as Old Lady So-and-
So-and now labels herself Mary, Lady
de Smith, when the existence of her
sons wife, who is "the" Lady de Smith,
cannot be blinked.
Some Lively Widows.
Smart society lost one of it's most
brilliant widows when Lady Randolph
Churchill became Mrs. George Corn
wallis West. Lady Margaret DREW
ing, the Duchess of Roxburghe's
daughter, whose husband died early in
the late war; is young widow who is
seen everywhere, and who last year
did the social round indefatigably,
wearing the most up-to-d date toilettes.
A very beautiful and popular widow
of several years standing is Lady
NaylorL eyland, who was Miss Jennie
Chamberlain, of Ohio. Lady Naylor-
Leyland is a fair haired, blue-e eyed
woman, always exquisitely dressed,
and very much to the fore socially.
She is very Sich, and her eldest son,
now a big schoolboy-he u.s. by the bye,
a godson of the king's-is one of the
coming parts. Her younger son,
George, has two royal gQdfathers, the
Prince of Wales and the Duke of
Cambridge.
A uch-envied dowager is Lady de
Walden, whose social star is still in
the ascendant. Lady de Walden is
credited with planning some very
splendid entertainments at her sons

DENVER, Col, Feb. A suit for
$3,200,O00 damages has been filed in
the district court by Elizabeth 3.
Tabor against James w. Newell, War

company. The damage which Mrs.
Tabor is said to have incurred resulted
from a sale on an execution of the
matchless mine, near Leadville, which
belonged to the Tabor Mines and Mill
ing company. This mine was sold in
1899 for little more than $13, 900 to
satisfy judgment which the defendants
and William r. Harp are said to have
held against the Tabor company

THE SIXTH DAY.

The world had lain in an age-long dream

Had sprung youth strong. from the ira

plete.
But a nameless want that was past en-
dure. shadow-like darkened all,
And the horror tense of a keen suspense
held the pulse of the whole in thrall.
And Nature bloomed like a summer bride
in the joy of her noW-Won grace.
But great, dumb fear of wonder near
swept the beauty from her face.

The police have been turning the
tables in New York in rather neat
way, in regard to the question of bur
glaries which have been quite common
in the residence district. The claim
has been made by the owners of some
of the largest houses that the prOtec
ton has been Inadequate, and the pO-
lice retaliated by claiming that Occu-
pants of these houses did not lock their
doors nor take the most ordinary
means of protection against intruderS.
One day last week the captain of po-
lice of the district in question sent
dozen detectives out and told them to
enter as many of the houses in certain
blocks S possible, and see how far they
could go without being intercepted.
The result was that fifty-six houses
were entered without hindrance, and in
many inStanceS-that of w. K. Wander
bilt in partiCular-one man got on to
the second floor and wandered about
for some time, went down and out,
rang the bell and told the astonished
butler what he had done. He said he
might have filled his pockets with thou
sands of dollars worth of beautiful
things and would not even have had
to hurry in doing so. This experiment
was repeated in fifty-five other houses
and the police were Vindicated. 1t is
undoubtedly true that people are very
careless about locking doors and win
dows, and should they take the precau-
ton to use bolts and bars half the bur
glaries would not occur. Some of the
New York women, when they discover
ed that a strange man had been pTOWI-
ing about their houses, were very in
dignant, and made a great fuss about
it. But unwarranted as was the action
some good will probably come of it,
and the police will be less abused for
crimes which are brought on. by care
