bled with rage "Send for the secret
service men," he whispered to the presi-
dent. This is going too far"
Several officials responded. Some
body brought foolscap paper, ink and
pens, and the polizeimaster was about to
take down an account of the incident.
when the masked man interrupted the
proceedings by shouting:
What are you doing, polizeimaster?
It cannot be your intention to make me
unhappy for the rest of my life? Send me
to Siberia or cut off my ears? Don't do
it, say. You won't listen to my prayers?
Well, take my commands, then, slave!"
Saying this, the speaker drew himself
up to his full height and threw off his
mask.
Grand Duke Boris!" "His imperial
highness!" 1--WE are lost!" whispered
president, polizeimaster,t the ministers of
state, the admiral and banker. Boreis en-
joyed their confusion, looking for min
ute or two from one to the other and
grimacing. Then he threw himself into
a big arm chair and held his sides while
indulging in another fit of laughing.
WELL are you going or not?" he de-
manded, after awhile "How often shall
tell you that myself and friends decided
to dispense with your precious COM
pany?"
The chief of police, the two ministers
of state, the admiral, marshal, financier
and president of the club looked at one
another, bowed low and tiptoed out
like so many whipped schoolboys. At
the door the chief turned and came
forward once more ito pay his respects
to the ladies'" And the rest meekly
followed
While Boris and his friends were
laughing to split their sides the polizei-
master interviewed the waiter.
You knew that the masked gentle
man was his imperial highness?" he
asked, sharply.
Eyes, at your excellency's orders" re-
ported the trembling Ganymede. "His
imperial highness forbade me mention
ing it. He said he would have my ears
if 1 squealed."
"Well, will have your ears, and your
nose both, if this gets me into trouble"
cried the chief. Then, turning to the
two ministers of state, the admiral and
the rest, he added: Gentlemen, am
astonished at your behavior All of
you seem to have been blind and deaf
tonight. Cannot distinguish the i'm
perial voice, his gait, demeanor. Gen.
tlemen, you must have taken leave of
your senses before you came here"
The ministers, admiral, bankers, presi-
dent, etc., were profuse in excuses. One
confessed that he was excited" another
that he couldn't see we'll under artifi-
cial light, third that he suspected the
identity of his imperial highness, bur
his protest was overheard
cat any rate, the all-highest gentle
man would have stayed probably no
longer than half an hour or an hour.
Why could you not oblige him? Why
in thunder must you read newspapers
at IL midnight"
The five old gentlemen departed singly
or in groups whispering to each other
with the air of persons who had just es.
capped some great disaster. When their
wives and daughters on the floor heard
what had happened they were loud in de-
nunciation of husband and father. "He"
never knew where TO stop, and would
make them all unhappy" Some families
went home abruptly, and army officers

ExplodeS and Kills Young Boy
and Fatally Wounds An
u other One.

Evansville. Ind. Sept. 4.-Fred
Dillman. a nine-year-old boy. met
death in a most unusual manner
this afternoon. While playig near a
peanut rooster this afternoon the

struck him on the side of the neck
and severed his jugular vein. He
bled to death in a very few seconds.
The peanut rooster was owned by
Vincent Amerso, an Italian. Amerso
who was in charge of the rooster at
the time of the explosion, was badly
burned and scalded. His injuries
are serious and he is not expected to
live.
When the boy was struck by the
flying particles of glass and iron he
staggered about twenty feet and
fell to the ground in lifeless con-
dition.

of the affidavit, but promptly refus-
ed to vacate.

reasons, but Judge Benton also re-

the outcome of circumstances.

Keeping in Touch with the Children.

Dear Aunt Jennie Our life is
made up of little things, and they
are all necessary, or we think so.
Our duty to ourselves is to make
home just as lovely and happy as we
can with what we have. Where the
mother has all the sewing to do for
many little ones, she will not have
time to put on much trimmings, but
the material should be of as good
quality as possible. made up neatly,
and there should be as many changes
as the pocket-book will permit. It is
better for children to have number
of plain garments than a few elabo-
rately trimmed. A mother must take
time to keep her mind in tune with
her children, and she should try not
to get behind them in knowledge of
passing events. This is the age of
progress. and children are taught
many things that were comparatively
unknown to the people of years ago.
When ones. children begin school,
they are apt to rely more on the
knowledge of their teachers than
they do on that of the parents; yet
few like the idea of taking a back
seat, nor need they entirely, if they
will only keep up reading. 1t is
better not to spend so much time
trying to be clean. Scrub less and
read more. AUNT ADDlE.

all, and spread between the cakes
when quite cold; also spread over

cakes of three layers each.
Another thing l would mention: !:
Soda is one of the least expensive
and most indispensable articles in
kitchen use. Acid fruits, such as
gooseberries, rhubarb and plums. re-
quire less sugar if little soda-half
a teaspoonful to one quart of fruit
is put in before the sugar. Bathing
a patient in hot soda-water will re-
duce the fever. A little soda put in
water in which meat and vegetables
are boiled will make them tender and
sweet, besides fastening the cooking,
and thereby saving fuel. When added
to dish-water, no soap is needed. and
there is no greasy rim around your
dish-pan. In warm weather meats
may be freshened by washing in cold
soda-water before cooking.
