and wealthy of Uncle Sans fair women.
The emperor has just made known the
engagement to the whole world as he
particularly wished to set at rest, in a
positive manner, the rumors that the
crown prince was engaged to marry an
American beauty, Miss Gladys Parker
Deacon.
1t was stated some time ago that the
crown prince had actually proposed mar
riage to Miss Deacon, giving her at the
time a handsome diamond ring, which
Queen Victoria had presented to him,
telling him that he should never part
with it except to his wife. 1t was said at
the time that Miss Deacon cast the ring
at the feet of his majesty representa-
tive, but the story was afterWard abso-
lutely denied by every one concerned.
The crown prince is easily suscepti-
BILE to feminine charms, and was ready
to renounce his throne for the sake OF
a woman when he was still in his teens.
He met Miss Eleanor Dreise]. Of Colum-
bus, O., at Bonn, and for long time a
friendship existed between the two, the
girl not being aware that her young
friend was a royal prince. When Miss
Dreisel, who is older than William, dis
covered his identity, she was FRUSTRATED
with grief, as it was said the youth pro-
posed marriage and offered to 60 to
America to live.
The crown prince has been kind and
agreeable to Miss Isadore Duncan, the
dancer wko was in Berlin last winter;
he took special pains when in Vienna
to tell Edyth Walker that he thought
she had wonderful voice; he has. long
admired Bessie Abbott, the American
girl who has been at the Paris opera
house, and he has gone out OF his way
to be attentive to several other Amer
lean girls singing in Berlin.

and increase have put On end to all such
conditions. Now but a small remnant
are left alive, guarded by soldiers Of the
car of Russia and other potentates.
A good sized aurochs stands over six
feet high at the shoulder, and has much
the same appearing hump and shaggy
name as its American cousin.
The two specimens at the Geological
park appear thin and weak after their
long and trying journey, but they will
soon become sleek and full bodied.
One may see three or four shaggy
headed American bison come up on their
side of the fence and be met by the
mighty aurochs, and there they stand,
smiling at one another's muzzles-hts-
torically the most picturesque creatures
of two sides of the earth, which in . fsw
years will have vanished forever fr,ln
the sight of man. The memory and ira
dition only are left Of the vast herds
which fought for supremacy with the
primitive Anglo-Saxons, and the other
thunderous crowds which flew startled
before the onslaught Of the wild red
skins.

Carroll D. Wright. commissioner of
the bureau of labor of the department OF
commerce and labor, who is one of the
recognized statisticians Of the world, has
undertaken in bulletin, which has just
been issued, to throw light on the Ques-
ton of the increased cost Of living in
1908 over the preceding 13 years.
Wright has made his comparisons with
wholesale figures since they are re-
garded as the more substantial basis and
his report includes 260 series of quota
tons, covering farm products, food and
clothing, fuel and lighting, metals, i'm
plements, lumber and building materials,
drugs and chemicals, house furnishings
and miscellaneous goods.
In making his report the statistician
adopted the method pursued by all lead
ing authorities of the world, and in COM
pairing prices for 1908 with former
years he reduces the price of the preced-
ing Is years to the average price for that
period. He places this average price al
ways at 100. The difference between 100
shows the decrease or increase in cost
for 1903
The first table shows the average rel
alive prices of all commodities higher in
1903 than at any time since and includ-
ing 1890. Farm products reached the
lowest average in 1896 and the highest
In 1902. Cloths and clothing were the
lowest in 1897 and the highest in 1890.
Fuel and lighting were the lowest in 1894
and the highest in 1903. Metals and i'm
plements were the lowest in 1898 and the
highest in 1900. Lumber and building
materials were the lowest in 1897 and
the highest in 1893.
Statistics show a decrease in the price
of beef from 1902, but the relative price

q minute, although there were no cables
or telegraphs at that time to flash the
news around the world.
"That happened one night in Septem-
Der. 1856. Baldwin owned several acres
of fine land on the crest of what is now
known as Mob hill in San Francisco.
This property even at that time, on &C.
count of it's obvious future value for
high-grade residence purposes, was
worth easily 100000.
TON Vanbrugh, the proprietor of the
Ell Dorado, a big San Francisco gamb-
ling club, owned faro banks all the length
of the slope as far as it was then settled,
in addition to possessing big gambling
club in the City of Mexico, and he was
millionaire several times over. Van
brugh wanted Lucky Baldwin's parcel
of Mob hill ground, but Baldwin wouldn't
even talk about selling it. Vanbrugh
owned a whole block on Lower Market
street, on which Baldwin wanted to
build. 1t was worth about the same
amount as Baldwin's Mob hill ground.
Vanbrugh had offered to trade the Mar
ket street block for the piece of Mob hill
land, but Baldwin wouldn't listen to him.
That the way 1t stood between Bald
win and Vanbrugh on this night in Sep

BISON OF THE OLD WORLD.
First Specimens Of the Mighty A.
rochs Ever Brought to America
Now in New York.
New York Special.

New York Special.
Two great beasts have just been added
to the collection Of animals in the New
York Geological park which are as inter-
esting as they are rare. They are the
European bison, or aurochs. The latter
name was given originally to another
hoofed animal, but usage has changed Its
Specification. Never before has living
specimen of these grand beasts been
brought to America.
Even within the historic period these
so-called aurochs roamed over the whole
of Europe, just as the American bison
formerly peopled our western plains.
When Charlemagne held sway this was
