French meteorologists have worked
out the theory that exceptionally frlg-
Id Aprils occur at intervals of exactly
100 years. In April, 1903, the cutters
were frozen and snow fell in Paris.
In April, 17O3, the price of wood rose
ana people died of cold in the streets,
while chronicler of the period writes:
Ihere is snow at Versailles and we
are perishing of cold at Paris at a
season when the sun ought to be
warming us. The north winds affiict
us, bringing us cold from the noun

needed to prove that April, 1903, was

mines of the country combined; and, if
the value of the hens be added, the
aggregate is twice the annual yield of
all the gold and silver mines, and six
times the value of the wool crop. The

1t is not common for one government
to interfere in the domestic affairs Of
another, but protest against high
crimes can be lodged in an effective
manner. Great Britain's protest againt
the crime of the Servian murderers
took the form Of an order to the Brit
ish minister to Servia to leave the
country, as the British government
had no intention Of maintaining ordin-
ary relations with the persons con-
cerned in the massacres." Although
Great Britain stood alone in refusing
publicly and formally to have deal
ings with the new king on his acces-
sion, the British. attitude was none the
less commendable. Murder is murder,
whether committed by one person or
by mob.

A COLONEL'S SWAGGER.
Was Among the Causes Of the Bloody
Tragedy in Servia's Capital.

One OF the contributing causes, and
perhaps the greatest, to the revolution
In Servia, in which King Alexander
and Queen Draga perished. was Lieu
tenant Colonel Nicodem Lunjevics, one
or the Queens younger brothers.
When Draga, who had been a lady In
waiting to Alexanders mother ex.
Queen Natalie. became Queen, one Of
her first actions was to send Nicodem
to Paris to round out his education
and obtain knowledge Of French mil
itary methods. She had formed a
great design for the young man, her
ambition being, in the event that there
would be no issue to her marriage to
Alexander, to set him upon the Ser
Wan throne. Possessing an unbounded
influence over King Alexander, Draga
had no difficulty in making him look
upon her scheme favorably, and in the
designs of the royal couple, Nicodem.
who had not a drop of royal blood in
his veins, was selected as heir to the
throne.
When Nicodem returned to Belgrade
from Paris he staggered about the
streets as though his succession to the
throne was already settled, and re-
fused to salute his superior officers. on
the ground that he, as the Queens
brother, had the right to expect their
salute first He was q reckless gam
bier and made debts Of honor which
Queen Draga was obliged to pay to
keep them quiet. On several occas sions
he became involved in brawls in the
streets OF Belgrade and in restaurants
and cafes there, and his name was fire.
quently mixed in scandals of various
kinds.
This conduct gave offense to the peo-
pie and TO the military. A few weeks
before the tragedy Nicodem had left
Belgrade and 1t was his return to the
capital, coupled with the fear that
Alexander would proclaim him heir to
