CAUSE OF PARIS RIOTS
Friends of Aspirants to French Throne
Aided in Recent Disturbances
Sketch of Three Pretenders.

PariS.-That the recent rising in
Paris was fomentcd by adherents of
three p~retenders to the throne, who
desire to see France again an empire,
is the general belief in Paris.
Prince Louis Philippe Robert, duke
of Orleans. is the Bourbon-Orleanist
p]rctender. II, is the eldest son Of the
late cunt of Paris, and vas born in
1869. In 1890 he entered Paris, not
wiihstanding the exclusion act of 1886,
and was arrested. He WAS released
after a short time. and then went to
Brussels, as being nearer France. In
1905 he led a north polar expedition.
Prince Victor Napoleon Cof the
house Of Jcromc) is n son of tho late
Prince Napoleon and the Princess
Clothilde, sister Of the late King Hum
1862. After the death in South Africa,
in 1879, Il the SO-Called prince i'm
pcrial Cson Of Napoleon Ill. and Eu-
Genicl Victor was put forward as a
rival Of his father in imperial claims,
being supported by Paul de C~assa9nac
and others. He lives i'm Brussels. is
morganatically married, and has three
children.
Ni.Dor's Younger brother, Prince

which makes a fine incubator. Here
they hatch out in the mellow sunshine
and crawl over each other and take
lessons in biting off each others tails.
one of the lroprietor's ~favorite stories
to make his visitors eyes stick out IS
that alligators' eggs are fine eating.
and that he has alligator eggs on toast
every morning.
A few years ago New York was
startled by the information that Cen
trail park had suddenly been turned
into Il breeding place for wild ALI
gators, ana that the pools were full of
them. Women refused TO let their
children 90 there. The keepers and
policemen kept finding half-Srown ga
tors in the water. Then the secret
came ont.
Hundreds of peopl" who had visited
Joe's farm had taken back young ga
tors as pets and kept them in their
homes in tn" city till they got big
enough TO try TO eat up the children
ana cats and dogs. Then, in despera-
ton, the owners thought of Central
park as being the easiest way to get
rid of their voracious pets.
When Joe started his alligator farm
the gator tribe had begun TO disap-
pear. and dealers in alligator hide
wcrc beginning to substitute notified
cow hide for handbags and other gew-
gaWS. Then every hide that Joe could
produce brought its price, and gator
teeth from Joe's farm began to appear
in tho market. Joe made money.
"But should think II would cost a
good deal to feed them while they are
growing" said one visitor.
"Oh, they eat each other whon
they'se hungry" he said: IAN If half
of them's that born grows up my
profit is good. cause | amt fed EN-

GOTHAM HOTEL BUILT TO EN-.
COURAGE MARRIAGE.
Hotel for Working Girls, Called Trow-
mart Inn, Erected for Laudabie
Purposes-No Arbitrary Rules
and Regulations.

New Gork.-Trowmart inn, the new
hotel for working girls, seryes a triple
purpose. William II. II. Martin, who
has erected it. believes that all true
happiness comes through marriage.
So a premium is TO be placed IN all
matrimonial engagements which take
place within the handsome new hos
telry. Girls who work long hours in
factory. shop and store. and whose lciS-
ure is spent within the dull conircs

have few opportunities for making ana
pursuing the Acquaintance of desirable
young men. The dingy parlor Of tl'
third.rate boarding house Is not con.
duCive TO matrimOny. Girls of gan
tleness and refinement do not care to
DO courted upon the open highway,
nor in public parks, and thus the
world is filling with spinsters who, 90.
cording to Mr.. Nartin. had they a
proper place in which TO entertain
their admirers, would develop into
happy, excellent wives and still hap.
pier mothers.
Trowmart inn IS to contribute TO this
laudable purpose. That is on" reason
for its erection. TIL" primary caus"
for the construction Of the handsome
new hotel in Abingdon square Is that
a useful memorial may stand to a
small son of Mr.. Martin. 1t is also
built in honor of his wife. Tho name
Of the new inn is a combination Of
that of the little boy who died, who
was called Trowbridge, and the sur
name OF the family.
While the requirements TO become
a guest of the Trowmart inn are few,
even less are the rules and regula-
tions.
The girl or woman who desires a
room and board at this new hotel has
simply to be Of the class which labors
for a small wage and whose parents
have no home within the city.
This hotel is six stories high, and
will accommodate in the neighborhood
OF 400 girls. The interior of the
structure has the air of a connexions

glad of the opportunity of earning scholarship and who will work hard for the desired result. His mother, though a widow, is very anxious that her children shall secure a good edu- cation and she is very much pleased with the chance that her son now has. Homer is we'll known about town and has many friends upon whom he can count during the contest to give him every possible. help.
 Miss Stevenson is a young lady who has had some experience in cOntestS through The Republican. Not long ago she won a prize which was of fered by Hyder Brothers for the best advertisement She has musical ambitions and enters the contest with the firm determination of being satis- fled with nothing less than the Ari- zona School of Music scholarship. She is now attending the public school, and like Homer EorbelI. has a large circle of friends not only in Tempe. but in other towns of the territory who will stand her in good stead during the progress of the contest.
 Sidney MOeur is son of w. A. Moeur. The fact that he lives in the country and and is well acquainted in his section, gives him perhaps, d slight advantage as he has more coun- try in his vicinity to draw from, but still that is no great advantage, for none of the contestantsN are restricted to a certain amount of territory and each may solicit subscriptions when and where he or she chooses. Sidney is attending the public school and is highly recommended by Prof. Mullen as one of the best students in his class and a young man who has plenty of grit and when he once gets started in this contest. it is pretty near an as- sured fact that he will do something $ in it.
 The contest begins next Saturday morning and concludes Christmas day. The number of contestants from i Tempe and surrounding country is not limited and any others who desire to enter should make application to the manager of the Tempe department. F ! w.

A WANDERING BED.

Fred Schafer was out early this morning. riding through the streets and highways trying to find the trail of his bed which disappeared in a very mysterious manner. The bed had been in MT. SchafeT's possession for some time. and he had imagined that there was a sufficient sympathy eX- listing between them to cement a friendship that would endure for years, or at least until one or both had reach
 ed the chloroform stage. He had never misused his bed. It is true that he
