come involved in such kinds of transac
tions. And this feeling is intensified
because these particular members Of the
family chance to be the only ones par
ticular]y and closely connected with
the kingdom Of Hungary. The late
Archduke Joseph was always called the
Hungarian Archduke. He was pala-
tine Of Hungary, commander-in chief of
the army in Hungary and his home was
among the Hungarian people. Besides,
his magnificent palace in Budapest
and villa at Fiume. He and all his
family spoke Hungarian. The emperor
and other members of the family spend
very little time in Hungary, and the
people feel this neglect very keenly.
That these financial scandals should
center around their own archduke's
family is, therefore,, a matter of the
deepest regret to the whole nation.
The emperor also has special inter
est in the affair, as the wife of the pres
ent Archduke Joseph is one Of his
granddaughter, the Princess Augustine,
daughter of the Archduchess Gisela.
elder daughter of the emperor and who
is married to Prince Leopold Of
Bavaria.

The Archduchess Clothilda has many

Of the princesses in Europe. 1t is.

acquaintance with the Moros. We found
dozen of them under a rude shed of
palm leaves, preparing the evening
meal. The most conspicuous dish, at
least the dish that attracted our atten-
tion, was a skillet full Of grasshoppers
being done to neat brown over a slow,
fire. While we were watching them,
two half bare children returned from
the chase with a large supply of fresh
grasshoppers strung upon grass. The
Moros have most repulsive habit Of
dying the teeth black, the enamel being
first scraped off. Add to this the red
tinge left on the lips by the chewing

apt to be waylaid, if alone, and lose his
life as a penalty for his rashness. With
this incident fresh in his memory, Col
onel Steever Of Camp Overton furnished
us with a mounted guard. During the

large trees, some Of them with fantas-
