YAcHTSWOM EN.

Society shots and society whips have often floated into the limelight, but lit tie has been said of their ability to sail yachts. In the United States at pres ent. says the New Yorker, there are several well known women of the ultra fashionable set who are experts at the tiller. but those whose social position in England corresponds approximately have thus far kept away from the cal cium's glare. Nevertheless the duch- ess of Sutherland, the widowed duch- ess of St. Albans. the marchioness of Ormonde and Constance Countess De La Warr, are fond of yachting; but On- lv 2 few Nn understand the manage ment of a boat and can sail and steer it to perfection. Of these latter are Mrs, Oliphant an aunt of the present Lord Gerard, ond also the marchiO- ness of Londonderry, who often takes a practical part in the ladies match" during Cowes regatta week. And tha countess of Wicklow and Miss Victoria Legge steered two boats to victory at the Guards regatta of 1905.

$6,5oo,ooo IN BEAN MONEY.

More money is spent each year in Boston in buying baked beans than would buy the largest battleship in the United States navy.
 In 1904 the gross receipts of beans in Boston were more than $6S,000 barrels. In each barrel are five bushel. The average price at which these were sold by the wholesalers was $1.S5 a busnel. and when these beans were sold again by retailers to their customers they brought an average of F cents a pound, or a grand total of $6,59S,272.
 There are other places where beans are used, but they are not Boston beans, and can never be, unless the man who superintends their baking happens to have served an apprentice ship in some of the Boston bakeries.
 So tremendous has the demand for baked beans become in Boston that two companies have been formed whose business is to bake beans for restaurants and quick-lunch establish ments. One of these companies uses an average of 4,50O quarts a week and the other 10000, yet the beans that these companies bake are but a drop in the bucket compared with the con- sumption of the city. The most remarkable feature of this remarkable consumption of beans is that the demand is steadily increasing. and that 15,000 more barrels of beans were sold in Boston in 1904 than in | 1903. There are seasons in which the demand for this staple is greater than others, notably the months from Thanksgiving to April.
 Taking the receipts in Boston for | 1904 of 6S,732 barrels, that would give the number of bushels 343, 3,660, or 10,- 997, ,12O quarts, weighing 21,994,240 pounds.
 Accepting as the population of Bos- ton approximately 553,000, this would give each inhabitant, men and women,
 boys, girls, and babies, an average of thirty-seven quarts. These thirty -sev- en quarts of beans would weigh 143 l pounds.

ALFoNSo'S BRIDE-To-BE.

Unofficially 1t has been known for months that the Princess Ena, as she is known among her intimates, is to be the future queen of Spain. The wedding day was not announced, but the semi official newspaper, La Cor respondenca de Espana. has already declared that the marriage will occur on May r. The princess is only eighteen years old. She made her de- but at a function in her honor given by her mother last May. The princess Ena is the only daughter of King Ed wards younger sister, the Princess Beatrice as she was known in Eng land before her marriage to Prince Henry of Battenburg. The princess was the queens favorite child and her constant companion for years. The Princess Ena shared this love. The future queen of Spain is fair and slender She is not beautiful in the strict sense of the term, but is declar- ed to have a very sweet disposition. She is highly accomplished and speaks five different languages. That she does not lack for vivacity and daring was shown at the Isle of Wight two years ago, in private theatricals conducted by her mother, Princess Henry, when Princess Ena appeared as a vivan- diere, gave a skirt dance and sang q song. Two of her brothers, one of them dressed as a negro also sang and danced.

THE SONG OF THE TURNKEY.

In the darkness deep Of the donjon keep. Where the spiders spin their strands; In the home of bats And of old gray rats, O. his task is light, But from morn til night, On his rounds he needs must go. It is tramp, tramp. tramp, With his keyes and lamp, In the corridors down below. Then it's ho! no! ho! am king of the donjon deep. There is music of bolt and chain In the turkeys dark domain. How merrily jingle the chains that How cheerily tinkle the keys that I am king-king-xin of the don
 jon keep! Though the ravens scream From the gallows beam, It is little need he takes; And a song he roars Through the corridors, As his watchful round he makes. None are false to him In his kingdom grim, For their monarch never sleeps. O, there's none dare say To the turnkey nay; He is the king of the donjon deeps.
 .~ Then it's no! ho! hoi I am king of the dOnjon deep. There is music of bolt and chain In the turkeys dark domain. How merrily jingle the chains that
 clingi How cheerily tinlIle the keys that swing!
 I'm king-king-kin of the donjon-
 keep!

IN THE AGE OF THE YEAR.

Is it the wizard wind That has snriveled the quince's rind Sooth, we know it was he Who shook the leaves from the tree And danced them out of breath Till they wizened away in death! Strange and subtle powers Have rule of these ashen hours, Binding the stricken the sphere In this, the age of the year. Rustic the feet of the Dusk; And the only song we know It the back-log's murmer low, Then come and sit with me By the side of memory
 And ove, with the blue skies In her spring-reverting eyes, And there shall be vernal cheer In this. the age of the year!

LOVES THE SIMPLE LIFE.

Haakon VII. was immensely popular as Prince Charles of Denmark. Now that he has been seated as king of Nor way. he is expected to be equally pop ular there. The sailor prince" as he was always called, is a thorough sportsman and a great believer in sim pie living. His long connection with the sea has given him a manly dispo- sition and his genial appearance and kind hearted manner are likely to en- dear him to his subjects. HaakOn VII. has naturally had a few opportunities of showing his qualities as an admin istrator, but his careful upbringing and studious habits should stand him in good stead in his new position.

DUCHESS BARS FAIRIES.

The duchess of Somerset has order ed the teacher of her village school no longer to read fairy tales to the chil dren. She explains her abhOrrence nf myth and legend in these peremptory words: "I protest against filling chill drens minds with such impractical ideas. They should be taught of the lives of Caesar Dante, Napoleon, Mill ton" etc. It seems strange that the duchess should have mentioned these names, for Napoleon is credited with the statement that history is a fable agreed upon," while Messrs. Dante and Milton are the authors of great works of imagination. As for Julius Caesar, he was no novice at fairy tales. The duchess has no children of her own.

ARMY NOW IN REIOLT.
News OF RoJestvensky's Defeat Reaches
the Land Forces.

CHICAGO MAY 3l.-Th, Daily Neus
tonight publishes the following st. Peters,
burg cable:
Gen. Linievitch wired the Gar to-day
that the news of Rojestvensky's defeat
has spread throughout the army in Man
churia and that the troops are in open
revolt. He points out that under such
conditions the continuation of the war is
impossible. This is the browning disaster
in the series Of calamties that have over
taken Russia since the opening of the war
Feb. s, 1904.
Russia is left senseless. Crowds Of
illiterate Muzhiks surround those who are
able to read the news bulletins in the streets
and weep while they listen to the pitiful
details OF the Tsu Shima catastrophe. The
wors predictions Of tie enemies of the
Carbon are now found to be exceeded.
ON all sides the cry is heard that the
present regime is responsible and that it
mist be cleared out. The Gar ia no longer
the Noroe Iremyd, demands that the peo-
pie take the helm OF state into their own
hands. Admiral AleSieff's organ, the Sloro,
exca inns that Russia has had calamities
enough and demands a change of regime
that will give peace.
-Rumors are spreading everywher day
that the Car intends to resign. The con-
vocation of national assembly is conf
IDENTIFY expected.
Generals and Admirals interviewed by
the Daily Ners correspondent to-day
were unanimously OF the opinion that
Russia had lost its sea power for half
century to come. They also thought that
peace would come Immediately: that Eng
land and America would help to modify
Jap-n's demands and that internal reforms
would bring about the regen Grafton Of

In conformation with Continental mourn
ing customs, the Baron has also laid aside
all jewelry. Other members OF the Rus
sian Consulate are following his example.
Baron Sch!ippenbach declares himself
unable to give any technical opinion on tho
battle, nor can he ascribe any reason for
the Russian defeat.
Il know that many OF my friends must
have fallen he said. Russians are not
the sort to surrender when there Is any
chance for resistance left. They died
fighting and their death was proud one.

when the Russian ships entered Tsu

obscured by dense fog. When the fog
lifted the Russians found themselves in
the immediate vicinity Of the Japanese feet.

but the Japanese got in their fire ahead OF
them and. keeping out Of range OF the Rus
sian guns as much as possible. threw the
whole Russian feet into disorder and sank

boats after the Russians when night fell.
Two more Rus sian vessels went to the bot

THE following morning the Japanese
main body pursued the Russians and en-
countered the third Baltic squadron, to-
gcther with the Orel and Izumrud. near
tine Iiancourt Rocks. The Japanese
attacked and the Admiral Oushakon was
sunk AZ once. while the Izrmrud made Of at
full speed. The other vessels surrendered,
The Admiral NakhmoH drifted to the
Tsu Shima coast and was blown up by her
own crew.
That so great a victory should have been
achieved at 80 small cost has astonished
the people. There is, however, little
outward excitement, although elaborate
preparations are being made to celebrate
the victory in the large towns.
The Jyi Shimpo says the Japanese
victory is the greatest in history since
Trafalgar. 1t also praises Rojestvensky's
Callantry in facing the Japanese fleet
