The three foremost prodigies Of to-
day, Mischa Elman, Franz Won Vecsey
and Vivien Charities, are frail little at
oms, marvellous indeed in their genius
and Enthusiastically bearing the stamp
Of the divine attiatus. But one rarely
sees them smile with the delight Of
success. Mischa Elman, the young
Russian, has a serious, faraway ex-
preston when he plays, and even the
frenzied plaudits he received at his re-
cent recital failed to move him out Of
his saturnine mood. He was as a
swimmer breasting the surf-the tor
rents Of applause broke over him and
left him unmoved. Vecsey, the nine
year-old marvel, Is almost as indiffer-
ent. He acknowledges the reception Of
bis performances in the manner Of one
who has learned lesson. Little Wv
len Charities runs Off the platform in
stantiy her piece is finished, as though
glad to get it all over.
One yearns to break the barrier Of
these childish brains. Do they really
enjoy themselves? Is their very gray
ity sign Of delight too great for ex-
preston, or is it all wearisome la
bora task such as might be set them
out of school ?-London Mail.

King Edward and the Nuns.

The kings return from France is
reminiscent, writes correspondent, of
the following incident which took place
at Dover not so very long ago. AS the
French steamer arrived the king hap
pened to be walking on the pier at
Dover In his undress uniform of a
British admiral. Three nuns, who had
been expelled from France, were
among passengers who disembarked.
Never having been in England be-
fore, they Immediately approached the
wearer Of the naval undress uniform,
taking him for the station master.
They explained to him in their native
tongue that they wanted to 60 to Vic
toria, whereupon the king In French
said, "Mesdames, I will escort you to
the right train"
He put them into a first class car
riage. They expostulated, as they had
only third class tickets, but he set
their minds at rest by quietly paying
the difference on their tickets himself.

CROP CONDITIONS
As Reported By the United States De
partment of Agriculture,
Louisiana Section.

Cotton: Frequent showers and Occa-
sional heavy rains materially lnterfered
with cultivation of the cotton crop, and
as result many fields are badly IN the
grass. A few fields in northwest par
isbes have been abandoned on account
of the rank growth of grass Where
we'll cultivated cotton shows improve
ment. but as a rule the condition of the
crop is irregular. The plant where suf-
fciently advanced. is not fruiting well
and some complaints of shedding are
received. Some land recently over
flowed by the Red river is being replant-
ed. One or two reports from extreme
western parishes state that crops are
being abandoned on account OF the cot
ton boil weevil Fair weather is needed
for the cultivation of the cotton crop.
Sugar Cane: Ideal growing weather
prevailed over the sugar region during
the week Plenty of rain with season.
able temperature conditions promoted a
rapid growth and development. The ST.
gar crop is promising.
Rice: Generally favorable weather
conditions prevailed over the rice region
during the week Planting has been
completed and the outlook is more
promising than at the close of last week.
Corn: The rains came too late for
early planted corn but late corn has inn
proved materially during the week. In
many localities early corn will not make
more than hat crop.

CRONJE AS A SNOWMAN.
A Pathetic Explanation From the
Old Boer Commander.

A Palmetto explanation FROM inc
Old Boer Commander.
General Cronje, the Boer commander
at Paardeberg, whose appearance IN
a military show has caused some I'M
favorable comment, refers in a letter
to the New York World to many letters
that have come to him from officers
censuring him for disgracing the mill
tary profession.

retorts, Il am not a member of the
military profession. Therefore l can
not disgrace it, | fought as n patriot

were as little Snowman MS I, there
would not be so many brilliant uni
forms covering dull men. British sol
diers have said that 1t is beneath the
