FUTURE EMPRESS AND
AMERICANS STIR COURT
Special Cable to The Herald.

LONDON, March 23.-"The crown
princess of Germany seems determined
to introduce a new element of elegant
society into the hitherto dull and de-
corous German court" Lady Violet
Greville writes to the Graphic. THE
American minister recently gave a
fancy dress ball, which was attended
by her in a charming pompadour dress,
and she herself gave a poudre dance,
which the emperor attended. Many
of the ladies wore pink, a graceful
compliment to the crown princess,
whose favorite color it is and who is
noted for her charming taste. Her
Partisan trousseau possessed a chic and
a style which the Berlin dressmakers
have not yet attained, although the
hitherto dowdy court is now striving
to compass the French elegance, and
the presence of a pretty young princess
and of various smart Americans is in
ducing a spirit of rivalry and taste
which is rapidly revolutionizing So
ciety"

BUY PARROTS AND
AVOID BURGLARY
Special Cable to Tine Herald.

PARIS, March 23.-Bird dealers,
whose shops are numerous along the
right bank of the Seine, near the Hotel
de Vile, are doing a big business in
parrots.
Their trade in parrots began increas-
ing a few days ago by leaps and bounds.
Well dressed and wealthy looking per-
sons arrived in fine carriages and auto
mobiles, bought parrots and paid the
prices asked without pickering.
The mystery was soon explained. His
majesty the parrot had been apostro-
phized in the official journal of the gov
ernment. The explanation is as fol-
lows:
NJ. Georges Berry, a deputy, interpo-
lated the administration in the chamber
few days ago on the lack of public
and private safety in Paris. He re-
ferred to the case in Auteuil where Il
parrot proved better than the police in
soaring away burglars. Mr.. Berry said
that since the police are powerless
every family ought to have a parrot.

Lake skenticaI View

Railway interests in the principal cit
les, says an eastern paper, are prone to
display considerable skepticism with re-
gard to the reports in the west that the
great railroad systems are preparing a
general movement to advance freight
rates as a compensation for losses sus-
tained through the hostile and restrict
i've legislation of a number of the states.
The only western state that has yet at
tempted, through its railroad commits
sion, to compel reduction in freight
rates is Minnesota, and the case has
been taken to the courts.
