WHY The Bills Are Big.

Abbeville Meridonal: Gov. Blan-
chard is making an honest effort to
reduce the rate of state, porochial and
municipal taxation, but the tax-eaters,
pap.suckers and levee grafters at
Baton Rouge are all hungry for pub
lie funds, and will not consent to any
relief worth mentioning. The taxpay-
err foots the bill, and until he quits
sending rascaIs and fools to the leg
islature, he will continue to foot big
ones.

TWO ROYAL WOMEN

A very pretty story is told of Queen
Alexandra, who a short time ago con-
scented to be godmother to the little
daughter of one of her neighbOrs at
Sandringham After the ceremony the
queen asked to be taken to the new
baby's nursery and upon arriving
there she took a diamond ring from
her finger and wrote on one of the
window panes, MAY Gods blessing
rest on this house and all in it"
To Queen Alexandra and the queen
dowager of Russia the idea of no long
er haveing a home in Denmark since
their fathers death was insupport-
able 1t was a terrible grief to them
when their childhood's home was dis
mantled, but they now have arranged
that their annual visit to the scenes
of their youth shall be paid as usual,
for they have agreed to share a villa
in Copenhagen. Here they will meet
each other at least once annually and
here, it is understood, the queen dow
ager of Russia will pass great deal
of her time. The villa is not a large one
and it will be furnished with the ut
most simplicity. after the Danish fash
ion. Some of the late kings domestics
will take up duty at the Villa Hyidore.
The queen of Italy, who had a mar
row escape from being buried in show
ers of burning ashes and cinders at
Tore Annunziata, is one of the erav-
est of royal women, a qualiey which
she inherits from her Montenegrin an
cestors, and which, although useless
to most women, is an important one
to those whom fate has called upon
to be the sharers of thrones. Her Mai
esty's GOODNESS and courage were
manifested when she insisted on &C
companying her husband into the dan
ger zone, in order to help the victims
of the Vesuyian eruptions While pos

BRILLIANT NEW YORK HARBoR.

Examinations Will Make 1t Best
Lighted in the World.
New York, Aug. 16.-The national
government is building for New York
harbor a new channel in the sea
which will be the most brilliantly
lighted harbor channel in the world.
This new ocean highway will place
New York a notch ahead of any other
port in the world. 1t will eliminate
the tourtuous course which vessels Of
large draught must pursue in leaving
or entering the harbOr, cutting OF
fully five miles of travel in this way.
The new channel will be eight miles
long, 1000 feet wide and forty feet
deep. Throughout it's length it will
be Illuminated by two parallel lanes
of light buoys, which will be equipped
with lights of great intensity. In ad-
dition other great lights will be seen
above the water, and to the navigator
in his dark pilot-house they will be
so arranged that the lights at the
entrance and at the end of the chan
mel will be constantly in line, and
when the ship rounds bend the turn
ing lights can be readily held in
place. At night the new channel
will be almost as brilliant as Broad
way.
It will cost 1921, 900, and is ex-
pected to be completed within two
years
