PETER AND REG|CIDES
The New King Living in Terror
of People.
HIS LIFE AT STAKE
Conspiracy Leaders Have Him
Completely in Hand.

Berlin, Aug. 22.-The -Westphalia
Gazette prints a letter from person in
BELGRADE. who is in confidential rela-
tons with the leaders of the recent con-
spiracy," explaining why King Peter is
completely in their hands, and does not
dare do the slightest governmental act
without their approval The writer affirms
that the new King was cognizant Of the
conspiracy long before the regicide was
perpetrated. and gave the conspirators a
written pledge not to punish them II ne
himself was elected King.
According TO the letter, the following
were the circumstances under which the
pledge was given: After the plans OF
Col. Machin. and the Minister of Com
merce, Genshics. had been fully matured'
the latter went to Geneva and consulted
with Prince Peter at Cara eorbevitch,
who expressed his approval Of the pro-
posed murders and promised immunity
for the conspirators. The Minister re-
turned TO Belgrade and informed the
regicide committee, which, however, was
not satisfied with a verbal promise.
NJ. Genschics thereupon returned to Ge-
neva and got written agreement which
gave Prince Peters sanction to the as
sassinations, and promised exemption
from punishment.
The conspirators still have the letter,
and are using It to intmidate the King
into complete subservience TO their
wishes

The Count dArtois remained in France
till the day after the storming of the
Bastiile. He refused to wear the tri-
color cockade which was presented TO
Louis XVI. at the Hotel de Vile by Ball
", the mayor of Paris. He was the first
to take the road of emigration. Curiously
enough, he had engaged, for a game tc

which became historical as the Jeu de

not be sold, but should be maintained at
the expense of the Republic, to furnish
amusement to the people and form es-
adjustments useful to agriculture and
the fine arts. Bagatelie was sold, how
ever, very soon afterwards, as the govern

public amusement; a theatre was built

Paris was too great: the place was again

Napoleon reunited Bagatelle to the pub

restauranteur the sum of 10000 francs.

signed the Count d'Artois again took
possession Of the house he had built in
his youthful days. He was now quite an
other man, very grave and very religious.
He allowed the public to visit the house

Chambord took his promenade in Baga-

NO ShODDY IN MILES.
Germans Think Hiatt He is Much
Abused at Home

HOQScC az TSOfflcs
Berlin, Aug. 22.-"General Miles is not
a millionaire. He is not a CRATER. He
knows nothing about pulling wires He Is
old-fashioned. He was indignant because
his soldiers were poisoned by embalmed
beef out Of which millionaires made more
millions. He is out of date-he is not a
shoddy American.
People in the United States will hardly
believe that the slight put upon their
of gossip so far away as in Berlin. But it
is true. and the sentences quoted above
represent the sarcasm this incident in
spires in the same class of Germans who
criticised the Kaiser for his attentions
of the Vanderbilt family. They declare
that the snubbing Of General Miles, mill
tary hero in the eyes Of all the rest Of
the world is the best argument needed to
prove that the United States is governed
not for the people by the people, but "for
the CRATER by the grafters."
This kind of sentiment is helped along
by the presence in Berlin and other Ger
man cities of a considerable number of
descendants, or other relatives, of Ger
man-Americens who fought in the civil
war. Their sympathies are naturally with
those of the old soldiers, or their families.
some OF whom were in regiments OF
which Miles was an offcer-and an officer
self-created from the ranks.
OF course there would be much less
said about the Miles incident here but for
the present vehement desire on the part
of certain editors to prevent all things
Americans in the worst possible light.
And what could give foreigners a worse
opinion Of a nation than evidence that
that nation was studiously forgetful of
its best patriotS

with the greatest enthusiasm by her peo-

play be avoided.
A few days ago she entered Ruremonde,
announced simply by two heralds, but as
soon as she mad entered the town her car
rage was surrounded by hundreds Of
white pigeons, each carrying ribbons in
the colors Of the House of Orange.
A single room had been placed at her
disposal. furnished to the smallest details
by the ladies of the town. who afterward
kept the furniture as souvenirs Of the
visit of their Queen.

COW AS IVORY PRODUCER.
Many New Articles Now Being Made
of Milk.

Paris, Aug 22-Napkin rings, hair
combs. walkingstick knobs. brush backs
and handles, cigarette cases and holders,
and variety of other small objects are
now being made Of milk. 1t appears that
much of the cheap imitation ivory now
comes from the COW. There are even al
legged pearls worn in earrings, or in
other kinds OF fancy so-called jewelry,
fancy jewelry, which are literally drops
of condensed milk. A nobleman owning
immense estates and large farms in the
Ioiret Department has set up a factory
for carrying on this new industry. His
COWS produce some 200 gallons of milk a
day, two-thirds of which is sent to Paris
in the season. But in the summer the
demand falls off, while the cows continue
to yield the usual quantity. Hence, the
Ingenious nobleman's new departure. The
caseine obtained from the milk is con-
verted. under great pressure into due
tile substance called '1actite,' the posi-
bic uses of which seem to be unlimited.
It is this sub-product of milk which is
replacing celluloid in the market as imi-
tation ivory. Moreover ,lactite can be
employed. ii appears. in coloring pro-
cesses for textiles. and for the treatment
OF wines, notably for the operation called
collage" Cabinet-makers also use 1t
for veneering furniture, and potters man
ufacture with it imitation earthenware.
Glove makers have just successfully ex-
perimented with lactite for produring the
glacg surface 0 fl1id. Tire manufacturers
have hopes of employing it instead of

firms that a powder can be extracted
therefrom which is just as good as snuff,

French Scientist Can Detect Water in
Wine

Paris. Aug. PA French scientist, NJ.
George Manoeuvrier chief Of the Paris
Municipal Chemical Laboratory, has dis
covered a new method for testing the
composition of wine and discovering how
much water has been added, by means
of an electric current which is passed
between two samples, one of the pure wine
and the other of the adulterated article.
When water has been added TO one. the
current produces loud vibration equiva-
lent 90 the amount of water added and
these vibrations record the extent of the
adulteration to within an infnitesimal
quantity.
The discovery is a marvel OF ingenuity
and will be applied at once in all the
municipal laboratories where wines are
examined

Fashions in Millinery.

Lace plays a very important part.
Long scarfs of lace and chiffon mingle
together, and both are frequently
worked with chenille. Beaver hats are
all the rage, and there is a good deal
of the astrackhan trimming In various
hues, as well as black. There are
sable toQues and plenty Of petit girls
and these are sometimes trimmed
with flowers, but the mixture Is con-
gruous. 1t looks well with the fur
stoles of the same skin. lined with
ermine, and completed by huge
grannie muff The Persian HAITIAN is a
shape in hats which has been revived
and may possibly supplant the pres
cnt Spanish toreador. These have a
handsome ornament, sometimes In
front. either paste or colored stones,
and when they are made in sable and
other good furs this gives great effect,
especially when white MORE is min
gled with the fur. Nothing is more
effective, as a rule, than black hat
trimmed with silk cord and gold tas-
Geled ends, dropping plCmes falling
over the back and at the side. Col
Ored feathers are often introduced on
black beaver, as we'll as on black felt,
and there is a great fashion now for
bright emerald green aigrettes. Thick
ruches CT ribbon encircle many OF the
crowns.

cool them. Cut the tender part OF
