WHAT A DIFFERENCE

All these things come from lack OF
the right elements IN the food. A Pro-

ENGLlSHMAN TO BE
A GERMAN PRINCE
Fate and RefuSalS Place on
Ills Head the
Crown
OF A MINOR GERMAN DUCHY

Berlin, July l15.-The coming OF age
next week of the duke, Karl Edward,
of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, will be
made the occasion for extended fes-
tivities in the little duchy. The duke,
who is the youngest OF German SOW
ereigns, is very popular among his
subjects, and the celebrations promise
to assume proportion quite unusual,
even on such an occasion.
Duke Karl Edward has just com
pleted his final military studies in
Berlin, preparatory to ascending the
throne of his miniature realm. De
spite his residence of several years in
Germany, the young duke Is English
through and through. In his early
boyhood he had little prospect of as
cending German throne, for ne was
born as the son of King Edwards
youngest brother, Leopold, Duke of
Albany Queen VictoIia's brother-in-
law was at that time sovereign of
Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. and next in
line of succession was his nephew,
Alfred, Duke of Edinburg; the latter's
only son, who likewise bore the name
of Alfred; the Duke of Connaught, and
the latter's son, Prince Arthur of Con-
naught.
While the young duke-to-be was still
at Eton there died, at relatively short
intervals from one to another, the
old Duke Ernest, of Saxe-Coburg, and
his successor, Duke Alfred, whose
only son had come to an untimely end
a short time previously. The Duke
of Connaught declined to accept the
throne of Saxe-Coburg, and his only
son, Prince Arthur, was equally re-
luctant to accept this German crown.
and ultimately it was forced upon
young Charles Edward of Albany.
The young duke came TO Germany
and his education since then has
been devoted almost exclusively to
Germanizing him. In 1902, when he
entered Bonn university. that famous
college on the Rhine, where kings and
kaisers are schooled, the rector made
memorable speech in which he ad-
jured the dual candidate for collegi-
ate honors, that men born to rule
German souls and German soil must
be German to the core" and added
that the dukes most precious care,
while beneath the elms of Bonn,
should be 10 permit &c man ideals to
penetrate the depths of his heart and
mind. II is doubtful if the young
duke has fulfilled all hopes in this di-
rectiOn, hut, be this as il may. the
youthful sincerity with which he set
about the task, has won the hearts
of his future subjects and It Is the
general expectation that he will make

New York, July 15.-Three prom

This announcement was made by
the assistant district attorney today,
who has been assigned to prosecute
Able on the Post complaint.
The allegation against Able is that

AT the time of Able's arrest the
police found a list of names of many
persons prominent socially. Opposite
each name were figuI es representing
sums ranging from $500 to $1,000.
Up to today Post has stood alone

now, however, he is to be reinforced

a successful ruler, even though he be
not thoroughly "Germanized."
He is tall, spare, blue-eyed, a young
man, of amiable disposition, and i'm
bued with a strong love of sport and
adventure. He was the best swim
mer and tennis player Of his class, and
a dashing hoi seman. and was the life
of many "kommers" of the smart
Borussia fraternity at Bonn. Should
he, too, die without issue, the throne
of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha would
probably be forced upon Prince Ar
thur of Connaught.
The word forced" Is used advis-
edly, for it is not believed that tne
young Connaught prince would ac'
cept willingly, unless he has ex-
perienced a change ri. smind since
his school days. 1t Is related In court
circles that the present duke, then
Prince Charles Edward of Albany,
was reluctant to become Duke OF
Saxe-Coburg, and that 1t was not until
he had been subjected to a vigorous
kicking by his cousin and schoolmate
Prince Arthur of Connaught, who was
afraid that he himself would be
obliged to become German ruler, that
the younger OF the two boys gave a
fearful consent to exchange his life
and career as an English prince for
that of a German sovereign.
The duchy is about the size of a
medium large American county, con
tanning 755 square miles, and has a
population of 250,000. From a finan-
cial point of view, however. the po
sition of its sovereign is not so bad
When he takes up the reins of govern.
ment next Wednesday, Duke Karl
Edward, will enter into possession OF
revenues amounting to about 100000

in various parts of Germany. and OF

senting the accumulation of his
minority.

SERIOUSLY INJURED
IN BAD SMASh-UP
Antonio Harp Victim of Ex-
citing Runaway Last
Evening.
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL IN AMBULANCE

Because he failed to get out of the
path of a runaway team that dashed
west on railroad avenue at 5:3O
last evening, Antonio Harp, EN-
ployed as bartender at the Eight
Spot saloon, is lying at st. Joseph s
hospital with a broken rib or two. and
minus a new driving wagon, which
was smashed to kindling wood in the
collision.
A team belonging to w. L. Trimble
and hitched to heavy transfer
wagon, took fright on South First
street while the driver was inside a
store, and started TO run. Henry An
derson, hack driver, saw the team
start. and jumped into the back of
the wagon 10 stop the frightened
horses. HcTesef, Wien .l4-slgilOt.l-a ~ :
the seat he found that one line had
dropped to the ground, thus making
II impossible for him to do anything
He therefore jumped out of the wagon
The team ran north on First street
TO railroad avenue. Here they turned
west, running at breakneck speed, and
greatly endangering the life of pedes
trians.
Harp and a companion were driv
ing east on Railroad avenue in q
light driving wagon. His companion
jumped and saved himself, but Harp
foolishly stayed in the rig and at
tempted to draw the horse up to the
curb and avoid the runaway. He was
too slow, for just as he turned to
make for the curb, the runaway
horses dashed into his rig.
The force of the collision threw the
occupant high into the air and re-
duced his vehicle to kindling wood
Fortunately, the horse escaped in
jury, and being freed from the buggy,
it turned and ran towards home. The
runaways were caught by bystanders
before they had recovered from the
shock.
Harp was picked up and carried to
the sidewalk in front of Rosenwald's S
dry goods store, and a hurry-up call
was sent for Strong's Sons ambn-
lance. Harp received temporary med
ical attention at the hands of DR..
Wylder, who was nearby at the time
of the accident.
Upon the arrival of the ambulance
at St. Joseph's hospital the injured
man was laid upon the operating ta-
BILE for an examination. 1t was found
that he had sustained a severe frac.
ture of one rib, and other severe in
juries, but none of his injuries are
necessarily of a fatal nature.
Today the hospital authorities re-
ported that Harp will recover, and
that beyond slight nervousness
caused by the accident, he was rest
ing easy.

Durango, Colo, July 15.-A party of
fifteen surveyors went out this morn
ing to commence work on an exten.
sion OF the Arizona & Colorado rail
way from Durango to Denver. Oother
surveying parties will follow as soon
as they can be organized.

respect, and that construction will be
commenced as soon as the surveys
and all preliminary work have been
completed.
This line from Denver will connect

Paso, giving Durango q southern out
let TO the coast. 1t will greatly shorten
the time between Denver and Du-
