Princess Victoria walked from the

Gently and did some shopping.
The Princesses filled their pockets
with lovely things, the royal party
staying in the shops a considerable
time They give as little trouble as
possible" said Mrs. Barber, 'and it is
real pleasure to wait on them" The
Queen and the Princesses would not
even trouble the shopkeepers to have
some of the things wrapped in paper.
They simply put the small purchases
into their pockets and asked for the
larger things to be sent on to the
castle.
Her Majesty and the Princesses did
not pay for their purchases in hard
cash, but the Queen remarked to one
tradesman, You can trust me-" They
seemed to make light of the unpropi-
tious weather and the wet pavements,
and tramped along quite gaily, hold
ing an animated conversation and fire.

A Fortune in Stamps.

A remarkable exhibition of British
and colonial stamps has recently been
held at the Albemarle Gallery. Lon
don, where Mr.. Field, the welI-known
dealer, shows for inspection, not for
sale, $1,000 stamps, whose value
amounts to more than 100000.
A blue triangular Cape of Good
Hope stamp, which occupies a place
of honor. is worth G2O0, and has
gained several medals for being a
perfect specimen. Only three other
specimens exist.
Early last year Mr.. Field was called
upon by man with some stamps who
offered to sell the lot for e16. incIud-
ing a triangular Cape, which was
covered with gum and had been
thumbed and carelessly treated.
In such a condition it was impos-
sible to say whether it had passed
through the post or not. If it had
passed through the post it's value was
only GS. Mr.. Field, however, discov-
cred, after the stamp had been prop
erly cleaned. that it was free from the
postmark and worth full value.

Praised the Kaiser.

A good story is being told at the
court at Berlin respecting the Kaiser's
well known tendency to take an inter-
est even in the smallest detail.
The other day he was walking in
the neighbOrhood Of the new palace
when he stopped to watch a number
of workmen busy repairing the facade
of the building. His Majesty drew
near and Immediately became an OBJ
Ject Of much interest to the men, es-
pecially to one of them. who was ex-
periencing great difficulty in fixing the
particular part Of the facade allotted
to him.
The Kaiser suggested to the man a
way out Of his difficulty, and to his
advice the man replied in a friendly
tone. Thanks, your Majesty. That's
not half a bad idea The Kaiser
laughed and resumed his interrupted
walk.-London Daily Mail.

Two Kinds of Writers

Two types of the writing man have
always been spoken of with scorn-the
man who farms out" a literary lob
to a. ghost" publishing the result
over his own name, and the man who
is willing to play the ghost" But
apparently one has only to acquire the
right point of view in order to see
good in everything in this world.
Some one signing himself Proxy" has
recently contributed to the Author a
curious defense of "ghosting." He
puts the whole question on a practical
basis. popular author, he argues,
must either content himself with a
comparatively small amount of work.
turning profitable offers away, or. hav-
ing agreed to do more than he is able
properly to do, he must scamp"
things. Therefore he is justified in
falling back upon a ghost" Pro-
ceeding from this beautiful assump-
ton, Proxy relates some of his own
experiences. For the first long story
1 'ghosted,' he says, ct received
f2 lbs thousand words all the way
through, one-third of the total amount
being paid to me before 1 had written
a line; one-third when I had COM
pleted about one-half of the story:
one-half on the day I delivered the
MS. complete" Are we touched by
these figures? Perhaps not, but let
Proxy continue his tale. Now sup
posing" he says, that I had written
that story on the chance of it being
accepted by some newspaper or syndi-
cate, what would have happened? In
the first place 1 should have worked
hard for four whole months without
receiving single shilling" and so on
and so on, his plant leading up to a
burst of enthusiasm over "the we'll
known writer who farms out his
work." that hero striking him "as a
sort of heaven-sent being, and not, as
some appear to consider him, species

HOW MARGARET SULLIVAN
WON OVER THE PREMIER
Gave Him Some American Ideas on
News Reporting and Created
Precedent.

FerhapS the most splendid triumph of
the late Margaret F.. Sullivan, a De-
trolt girl who became a famous Chi
cago journalist, was won when she
went to Paris in 1889 as correspondent
OF the Associated Press at the Exposi-
tion Universelle. Up to that time no
woman had ever been accorded official
recognition as journalist by the au-
thorities of the French Government.
She arrived in Paris a month before the
opening and laid her credentials before
Prime Minister Tirard.
He received her cordially, but as to
admitting her to the opening ceremony
= Mais, Nine. Sullivan, est une dame"
1T was impossible-"Mr Sullivan is a
lady" Mrs. Sullivan modestly assent
ed, adding archly, and is confident of
finding the first Minister of France a
gentleman
NJ. Tirard pointed out that there were
but 1900 seats under the dome of the
Fine Arts building, where the ceremo-
MES were to be held, and that there al
ready were 5000 applicants
"Wfll it not be enough to report the
ceremony a day later?" he asked.
M. Minister" was the instant reply.
there is no day later in American
journalism"
Finally the question was placed be-
fore President Carnot. Mrs. Sullivan
appearing to argue the matter. The
President was in a quandary.
THE French republic" he said, has
never given official recognition to a
lady"
Your Excellency," replied Mrs Sui
Ivan, Ivan, 1t it is time the French republic
The remark seemed to impress the
President and the order went forth
that Mrs. Sullivan was to be admitted
to the ceremonials, and thenceforward
afforded every courtesy. Her first dis
patch of 5000 words, analyzing the ex-
hibition as a. whole and describing the
opening ceremonial, was duly written
and hailed as one Of the ablest and
most comprehensive coming from the
pen Of any correspondent.
Mrs. Sullivan remained throughout
the exposition, and, in addition to her
reports, wrote voluminously on Euro
pean subjects in general. Six articles
In particular. which appeared in the
New York Sun on the Irish landlord
system, were models of style and re-
markable for their comprehensive grasp

Cbatsworth,s Hollow Books.

There are at Chatsworth two IL
braries, the Great library and the
West library. The doors are decorat-
ed with imitation book backs. These
are furnished with imaginary titles
reminiscent of the bygone love of
punning. Here are some of the titles
Tom Hood invented for the sham
bookcases: ''Wren's Voyage to the
Canaries.' Egg, by Shelley" Horn
Took on Catching Cows" "Esterhazy

well as on the uniform. The papers
announce that a thirty fourth change

be is as yet unknown. The expense in
