LITERARY NOTES

"The White Glory" by Keene Abbott
in the March McClure's, is one Of those
little stories of Western farm life, full
of enforced pathos and simply dignity
which always seem naturally to ind
their way into McClure's. The old
country doctor, whose last visit to his
dying friend makes the simple story, Is
of the type which cannot be too often
repeated in fiction any more than in real
life and, if the tale is sad, 1t is OF that
kind from which one takes only comfort
away.

CALLED FOR LOUISE.
Crown Princess Son Prayed for Moth
er's Return.

Dresden, March 10.-Little Prince
George, eldest son of the Crown Prince
Frederick, was recently missing from
the palace and for several hours his
tutors and the household officials were
in CONSERVATION. The favorite rumor
was that the prince had been abducted
Dy agents of his mother, the former
crown Princess Louise. The boy was
found praying in the cathedral that his
mother might return.
The socialists are using the crown
princess episode for political agita-
ton, and the unpopularity of the Sax
ony monarchy appears to have been
considerably heightened. The carriage
of Princess Mathilde, sister of the
crown prince, was surrounded by a
crowd in Wilsdruffer strass, one of the
principal shopping streets of Dresden,
one day last week, and the cries of
"Give us our Louise" were raised
Princess Mathilde was so frightened
that when the police reached the scene
she was escorted to shop and event
ually went out by the rear door and
took another carriage home. Several
similar incidents, showing the unpopu
larity of the royal house, have occur
red since the agitation caused by the
elopement of the Princess Louise, but
none of them has been mentioned il
the newspapers of Dresden.
