suRNAMEs NOT USED BY KINGS
N erNVa.NWF ----------- XII. #4#EH -Hr
Only Christian Names Signed by Ma.
iority Of Members Of Royal House.

From Il. P.'s Weekly.
I The origin OF most royal houses was
slmiiar throughout Europe, and kings and
their families, speaking broadly, never had
0r used surnames They signed their
Christian names alone.
So universally was this the case that II
became rigid etiquette that a person or
royal BIRTH should not use a surname,
thougL there have been numbers OF cases
" dynaties, like cur own StUarts, like the
Hernadotte dynasty OF Sweden, or like the
Bonaparte Family. who unquestionably
and individually had inherited surnames.
Bnt u has always been a puzzle why the
cadet members Of our royal house do not
subscribe themselves as peers by their
peerage designations. as do other peers.
However. tho fact IS they do NOT. but IL
has not teen discovered what are the rules
which gofer.l Their signatures. The SOW
ereign signs BY tho Christian name ard
usually adds "R.t or "R n IL" Princes
and arincesses sign by their Christian
names and some times but not always. add
the ietter n When or why this Is add
ed or omitted IS not known.
But the habits OF royalty lead others into
strange happenings. There was an occa-
sion upon which Queen Victoria after a
BOOK Her majesty wrote Victoria r. and
~" Princess Henry OF Battenberg then
wrote Beatrice Pr The turn of the local
mayoress came next and she signed
s.E.lizabeth,' The surname was hastily
written In the following day, but too late
10 prevent the story gaining currency.

 MoNTROSE W. HAYES. Local Forecaster. Weather Bureau.

Savannah, April 3.-(Speclal)-As eX- pected the opening of the season of 19o7-0s much lower prices. This comes as a mat ter of course, for with the beginning of re- ceipts in larger quantities when the new crop" begins to move freely. prices always develop an easing off tendency. So much for the new.
 As anticipated the old year which ended March S1st. did not In any manner approach the total receipts of the year preceding. A shortage of 20,142 casks of turpentine was recorded while that in rosins was 1S,Bi9 barrels as compared with the total in the preceding secson.
 In the old year, however, prices were quite satisfactory. and with one exception were the highest ever reacorded in the his- tory of the Board of Trade. The highest value touched was 74%c; the lowest s6Ac, while the general average price for the sea- son was between 58 c and soc per gallon The highest price paid for May-August fu- lures in the season was 69c. Taken all in all, the season was satisfactory, with the exception possibly. of the producers whose margin of profits were considerably narrow ed through increased cost of production. etc.
 The annual meeting of the Board of Trade was held today. After reports had been read the members enjoyed banquet.
 Spirits of turpenine opened Wednesday Marcn 27th, with nothing doing: last salev at 74&c On Thursday the market de- clined to roc per gallon, going from thence to 6gc, then continuing the decsent to SC a 66hc at which the market closed firm yes- terday For some reason quotations com mittee saw fit to place the legened ''paid and bid'' after the regular quotation, but the quotation was quite unsatisfactory zen

ORDER YEARS SUPPLY.
POstOffice Department at washingt,
 Is Flooded With Reuuisitfous.

Is Flooded With Acquisitions.
 Washington, April 3.--One of the reforms inaugurated in the division of supplies of the Postoffice Department since that division was placed undei the supervision of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General DeGraw, is the notification of postmasters throughout the country to order supplies for their offices in sufficient quantities to serve for one year.
 There had been previously lack oi uniformity in this respect, postmasterG sending in acquisitions at irregular in. tervals for varying amounts of sup- plies.
 This caused considerable confusion and entailed a great amount of unnec- essary work in the division of supplies. AS result of the new instructions upward of 37,000 acquisitions have been received from postmasters. most of them ordering ySar's supply. This large influx of orders has caused the division to fall considerably in arrears in the matter of filling requisitions there being now about 1S,5O0 unfilIeA requisitions on hand.
 The Department is experiencing dif- ficulty in securing sufficient twine which is needed in large quantities by postoffices and the railway mail ser. vice but the twine contractors report that they are making every effort te forward adequate shipments during tho coming week.
