THE UNIFORM IN PRUSSIA.


 The blind reverence for a uniform in Prussia, illustrated by the recent. suc- cess of the trick played by an impos- tor upon the municipal authorities of Kopenick, a suburb of Berlin, has been the subject of some bitter utterances in the German press. The Berliner Tagblatt. for instance, says: i've talk of our civic pride, of manly courage
 before the thrones of kings, of the State based on law, and of our con- stitutionalism. It is a strange com mentary upon these and upon the rest of the fine phrases we employ but it is undoubtedly fact that in Prussia
 the uniform rules and governs Before the uniform every one falls down a plat society," the authorities from
 the minister to the night-Watchman. the burgesses of the towns, and the masses of the people This is unintel-
 ligible to the free democratic eommuni- ties of the West, and it is unintenigible to South Germany, but in Prussia it is a fact. The man who wears uniform triumphs, not because he is better or cleyerer, or more prudent than his neighbors, but because he is in uni form" The Tagblatt recalls an incl dent which took place some forty years ago when a captain of Graudenz

THE INTERNATIONAL MABR1AGEs

IHE INIEhN4 IJOAAL M 1 RRIAGES
 The international marriage" busi- ness may not continue to be as four ishing as it has been, Anna Gould's suit for divorce is showing what one of those marriages has been, and the suit for separation which has been brought by the Duchess of Marlborough is in dicative of what another has been. Now the news comes from England that two more American women who are unhappily married to English no- bles of high degree are likely to follow the example set by the Duchess of Marlborough, formerly Consuela Van verbilt, and seek separation from their husbands.
 The more the sadder and perhaps in the long run the better Ambitious and rich United States women have appar- entity been willing to pay high price for the "honor" of marrying foreign n1blemen, and foreign noblenen have apparently been willing to be bought and dishonorable enough not to hold to the terms of the bargain. Of course not all of them have been rascally, but enough of them have been to cause a sensible United States girl to pause be- fore she rejects her own noble coun- trymen to marry foreign title and what goes with 1t.

 If at home you've loved to finger and with pride to point your finger, it's apparent you don't know what you're about; For its not the proper caper--see the latest Gilman paper--to bear such old-time notions meath our lids; Don't love anything material-pick something quite ethereal-and don't ever kiss the mssus and the kids!
 If you've loved to spend your hours in those shady backyard bowers where your children romp around you and play horse' You're the victim of tradition and this lady with a mission can show you where you're in the wrong, of cOursej

News from Picking is that the Em- press Dowager, learning that her inn perial edict issued several years ago calling upon Chinese fathers and mothers to stop the custom of binding their daughters feet was not being obeyed as universally as a special i'm perial edict ought to be, eVinced con siderable ire at the news, with the re- suit that several grand councillors who were present at the time, under went disagreeable quarter of an hour at her majesty's hands. In consequence the grand council has come to the de- termination of enforcing her majestys commands in manner that will prob ably have a successful result. Orders may be issued shortly informing the empire that the male members of any family whose female members have bound feet will not be permitted to hold office in the public service.

Attention is called to the fact that one of the great English railroad com panies employs at each of its draw bridges a ptFotman, who is practically answerable for the safety of trains with his life. After fixing the bridge for an approaching train he must meet the train, which slows down and picks him up. He passes over the bridge aboard the engine, and in case of an accident would share its fate. After crossing the bridge he drops off the en- zine and awaits the next train.
