In a certain Office at an Australian
railway station there may have been
seen a very long list of names of wo-
men who have at various times begged
the booking clerks to let them have
without payment, tickets to various
places. They have forgotten their
purses, or lost them. or spent their
last penny on a new pair of gloves
and various reasons. They will call
the very next day and refund the
money without fail. But there the
names and addresses lie, with the
amount of the borrowed money writ

Ewes Fruit.

A fruit supposed to bear the mark
of Ewes teeth is one Of the many bo-
tanical curiosities of Ceylon. The
tree on which it grows is known by
the significant name of "the forbidden
fruit" or Ewes apple tree" The
blossom has a very pleasant scent,
but the really remarkable feature OF
the tree, the one to which it owes its
name, is the fruit. 1t is beautiful, and
hangs from the tree in a peculiar man
ner. Orange on the outside and deep
crimson within, each fruit has the ap-
pearance OF having had a piece bitten
out OF It, This fact, together with Its
poisonous quality, says the Liverpool
Post, led the Mohematans to repre-.
sent It as the forbidden fruit Of the
Garden Of Eden, and to warn men
against its noxious properties.

Smuggling was carried on with great
boldness in England century ago.
When Samuel Pellew was appointed
collector of customs at Falmouth early
last century he found corruption the
chief characteristic of the service. One
day he surprised n party of his own
men attempting TO smuggle IN cargo
of wine in broad daylight. Pellew, who
was conscientious man, so worried
the smugglers that they threatened his
life repeatedly and posted bills offering
a reward fDr his assassination One

COLLAR AND CRAvAT.
ways In which Thcy Anect the APP
penrunce of the Wearer.


Men who do not want to look any
fatter in the face than they can help
have an easy means Of accomplishing
their purpose. Not all Of them are
aware OF the effect that may be created
by the form of Il collar or cravat.
"Thc stout man who wants to look as
thin ms he can" said habcrdasher's
clerk, ought to wear a tie of the kind
known as four-inhand. Preferably
IL should be dark In color and drawn
tight. That carries down the line OF
the face and lengthens it to a degree
that tends to make the face look thin
ner.
Another aid TO making n man look
thin is in the height OF his collars.
Stout men who want to look thin
should wear high collars and closed
ones. Amy collar that opens I'm front
makes one look stouter under nearly
every circumstance. Such collars are
becoming to the thin men.
THE fat man should avoid the kind
OF tie that has horizontal effect. This
will add pounds to his appearance--in
his face, at least.
"On the contrary, this cross effect
will make the thin man look stout.
The broad scarfs have little effect on a
mans looks one way or the other
When he wears them II Is the collar
that makes the difference.
'He should therefore see that he
years high one that does not open II
he wants to look as thin as possible
whereas IL he wants TO seem stouter an
open collar will produce that effect fol
him."

GERNANY'S VERSION

BERLIN. June IA dispatch from
Semlin, Hungary, to the National lei
tung. gives an interesting version OF
the events at Belgrade. 1t says:
"A party OF officers proceeded TO the
palace by previous arrangements with
General Ljubasivkocs and called upon
King Alexander to abdicate in favor
of Prince Peter karageorgevitch. the
hing refused and shot Col. Naumovs,
who made lne proposal. The other
effieers therew4e-. summoned the war
minister. General Pavlovitch, and Tu-
borovitch. the minister of the interior,
and shot the King and Queen and
Petrovitch, one Of the Kings aide de
camps, and other royal officers. The
leader of the actual assailants was
Lieut.-Col. Mlcieh. who himself muir
dered the Queen. The latter. together
with her brother and sisters, was
struck down with an axe. The Queen
died Immediately. The King hVeo
a few minutes. The immediate cause
OF the revolution was the return TO
Belgrade of Lieutenant Lungievltza,
brother of the Queen, and supposed
candidate for the throne. The sur
viving ministers have been arrested
The obsequies of the King and Queen
will be held June IA. A festival illum-
ination of Belgrade is projected ror
this evening"
The German government cannot De
said to have taken up any attitude as
yet regarding the provisional admin
istration of Servia- Horror was ex-
pressed at the foreign office at the
bloody coup d'etat- The immediate
feeling is one OF antagonism to the
new ministry and there is an indlspo-
sition to make it's path easy.
The Frankfort Zeitung in its version
of the tragedy at Belgrade says that
when the troops entered the Royal
bedroom King Alexander seized re-
yolver and shot the Queen and theh
killed himself.

ANOTHER ACCOUNT

COLOGNE. June IA telegram
from Belgrade says:
THE career of the obrenovitch dy-
nasty was closed in the early hours
of this morning, the same day of the
year on which Prince Michael was
murdered thirty-five years ago in the
park of Topschider near Belgrade. To-
day a requiem mass was being sung in
memeory Of Prince Michael. and now
the last of his race, together with all
connected with the dynasty by his un-
fortunate marriage lies In a bier in
the palace at Belgrade.
The people of Belgrade have been
rocking the streets since O'Clock this
morning, discussing the tragedy but
without condemnation. A strong de-
tachment of troops is encamped about
the palace OF the newly proclaimed
King who was a pretender to the
throne for wany years. He was born
in Belgrade in 1876 and was married
in 1888 to Princess Zorka, daughter of
Prince Nicholas OF Montenegro. She
died in 1890"
The Cologne Gazette prints a dis
l'ateh from Belgrade which says a
story is current there that the late
King Alexander was recently consid-
ering effecting separation from
queen Draga and that the latter be-
coming aware of this, planned preven-
dive measures.
Some high military officers last
night, the dispatch adds. entered the
palace and tried to carry off the Queen
by force, but encountered strong re-
sistance on the part of the Queen s
partisans and in the fierce struggle
which followed the King and Queen
and their respective supporters were
1iiled. AL entry to the palace is pro-
libited and a strong Gordon of troops
surrounds the royal residence.
The ministers who shared the fate
of their sovereigns were the leading
spirits of the Obrenoyitch party. Their
murder removes the only men capable
OF making a real stand against the
Karageorgevitchs, who have now no
serious opposition in Servia.

BY THE STAR
Social Given in the Silver
State Hall Last
Night

One of the most enjoyable social
events of the season was the annual
social given in the Silver State hall
last night by the Eastern Star. The
nall was crowded, and all the guests
remained to late hour, regrettfng
to leave hospitable and pleasing en-
tertainment
Ihe guests numbered nearly every
person who, belonging to the Star or
Masonic circles. was eligible to ad-
mission. Not the least pleasing fea-
ture OF the occasion was the beauti-
fully decorated hall, and it is said that
the lodge room was never prettier.
/ he piece de resistance was a large
ave pointed star in the emblematic
colors of the lodge, suspended from
the center of the ceiling; from the
points of this star ten ropes of paper
butterflies diverged, being carried over
and fastened TO the walls. Every
available space was filed with flowers
and evergreens, roses and hot house
flowers being in abundance Much
praise was bestowed on the committee
on decorations, Mrs. A. L. Bracket,
and Miss Abbie Duncan, assisted by
Il. E. Winfrey.
Mrs. Lothrop and Miss Laura Smith
sang a duet, Miss Lucia Robins sang
a solo, and an instrumental selection
by Mrs Lothrop followed. Oscar
Reinhart most aeeeptably filled place
on the program with a comic recita-
tion, The Bad Boy and the Limburg-
er Cheese" Mrs. AckeTman gave a
pleasing reading, and Mrs. Brady's
vocoI solo, The Nightingale was
enthusiastically received. The program
was closed by vocal solo by G. b.
Ackerman.
On three long tables refreshments
consisting of ice cream, cake. coffee,
ETC., were served, and the remainder
OF the time until half past one O'Clock
was devoted to dancing and delightful
conversation.
Mrs. George Berk, Matron OF the
Star, presided over the social, and
was assisted by Miss Abbie Duncan,
the present secretary.
