 Berlin, March 23.-"The time is past when it Is beneath snybody's dignity to be in business, and none of you any more than myself should hesitats to advertise what you have to sell," said the Kaiser the other day to a number or German aristocfats who are antfve- ly engaged in some business or other.
 The Kaiser owns extensive pottery works on his estate at Cadinen, in East Prussia, and conducts them himself with great commercial zeal Exuuisits productions from the imperial potter les are sold in the Berlin branch of the business which is known as the Ho- henxollern stores.
 Emperor William thus not only trades under his own name. but moreover fre- quently seizes suitable opportunities te canvass orders. When he notices likely purchaser of wares from his factories at court or other festive gath erings. he asks him point blank. whsth- or he cannot place an order, and If the answer is in the affirmative, the Emperor draws a pencil from his pocket and scribbles the order on hts cuff and does not conceal the pleasure he takes in having done a stroke of business.
 The Kaiser is not the only member oa tnu hhipSNtaA AaAhA4y Wup Is III b0&a~ ness. also his brother Prince Henry of Prussia is owner of factories and farms the products of which are sold in open market and their example has been followed by many ether Germans of royal or princeIy blood.
 Prince Christian HonhenIohe, mem Der of a mediatised royal dynasty. poe- sessing equal rank with all the reign ing houses in Europe, carries on gey- eral different businesses on his ances- tral estates st Oehringen, Wuertem- berg, One factory makes oatmeal, sold under the name of Hohenlohe oatmsai, while another makes cakes, and skifi another corsets. sold under the name ok Hohenlohe Corsets and much sought after by German ladies because of their princely trade mark.

FRANCE WOULD
 CHECK CRIME Chamber of Deputies Considering Matter. INCREASE OF MURDERS Police of Paris Are Attacked by
 Thugs. Former President Loubet Declares that King Edward is the Only Mon-
 arcbicaf Friend Left
 to Him.
BY HENRY nuRoIs.

 Paris, March 23.--The Chamber of Deputies is seriously considering tho question of how to prevent the enor- nous increase of crime in France which is disgrace to the country.
 One of the members the other day called attention to the fact that there had been eighty-eight murders com mitted in this city since Now Years, or more than one day.
 The police are attacked with revof- vers and stiiletoes in broad daylight and thugs roam the streets in the af- ternoon, attacking harmless citizens ai- most in sight of the police. Nearly all the jewellers shops in the centre of the city have been cleared out and scores of burglaries are committed ev- cry night.
 M. Clemenceau. the Prime Minister. says he knows that the police force all over France Is far from sufficient to cope with the criminal classes. Pa- ris with her 100000 inhabitants Is guarded only by 12,000 policemen and 97o plain clothes men, and of these S7s had been wounded last year while on duty, some of them so severely that they will never fully recover.
 M. Henri Cochin, a member of the Chamber, referring to the present epi- deulic of crime in the north of France, said he was convinced that the pro- visional criminal knew no restraint, as he thinks that capital punishment has been abolished, and that 1t was abso- lutely, necessary to guillotine a few murderers to restore the belief in the power of the authorities
 It will be remembered that when the old guiiIotine was pulled down from where 1t stood in Mendis Prison no new tfon. The inhabitants of each sug- gested place strongly protested agninst the erection of such Q gruesone object among them and at the present time there is no place here where capital punishment may be meted out. It was then suggested that as no place could be found for it the guillotine should be sent to a museum as a curiosity. It was argued that capital punishment was barbaric and that no man had the right to take the life of another. not even in the name of the law.
 Since last summer more than twen- ty men have been sentenced to death but in no case has the sentence been carried out and the criminals are laughing up their sleeves.
 One hardened sinner who had mur- dered several people refused to ask for a pardon, saying that he was ready to die and added: By demanding to be guillotined I annoy the State, for I know they have no place to erect the machine and I shall not have to die, even though I have threatened to sue for damages because the State does not do its duty against me-

naoIxn Wern sfnlen.

All Paris is excited at the startling discovery that has just been made at the Ecole des Beaux Arts. The libra rian while making sn inventory sud- denly found out that large number of valuable books were missing, and not only this but that engravinEs of great value had been torn or cut out of precious volumes and that other acts of shocking vandalism had been com mitted right and left in the library which next to the Ribliotheaue Na- tionale is tho most valuable iri France.
 Further investigations led to the dis covery that the books had besn taken by q well known and distiu guished government architect, a member of the Legion of Honor and holder of msny other titles of distinction, who died s few weeks ago.
 This gentleman. M Thomas. held the position of consulting architect to some of the buildings of the last expedition. His widow has found among the books in his library thirty volumes of fa- nous set worth at least 100000 francs. which she immediately returned to the Ecole des Beaux Arts, and a police in- vestigation was ordered.
 Facts have been discovered which seem to indicate that the late architect has disposed of valuable works to American Bibliophiles. which his widow indignantly denies. maintaining that her husband merely borrowed books from the library which he needed in compiling a large History of Archi. lecture" and that he died before he had time to return them.
 4 list of all books and engravings missing will soon be made public. and it is hoped that if some have come in- to possession of Americans. the owners will show the same generosity as did MT. Pierpont Morgan when he restored to the Vatican the famous stolen cope.

Iournex Around world.

A Journey around the world in thir- ty-fivs days will be possible when the Channel tunnel, connecting England and France, Is completed. The trans siberian express, crossing Europe and Asia to the Pacific will then start from London instead of from Moscow, and travellers win be able to get from Charing Cross to vladivostok without changing cars. the journey across two continents occupying about fortnight. The points In a thirty-five day world tour will be London, Moscow, Dalny, yokohama, Vancouver, Quebec and Liv- erpool
 Without the Channel tunnel it is pos sible to make the journey by the trans Siberian route in forty-one days. The weekly express train from Moscow is the most luxurious train in the world. having beside the usual dining, sleep ing and parlor cars a bank with safe deposit vaults. a gymnasium and Rus sian bath:
 There is 6 smoking compartment for ladies as well as for men and delicious Russian tea Is always ready, made in the national sanovar. The meals are cooked by French chef and are equal to those of a first class hotel.
 The whole trip can be made for the very reasonable fare of $525.

Roseberx Very III.

Lord Rosebery, the brilliant orator and once powerful statesman, has, like Joseph Chamberlain, completely brok- en down in health. His condition. al- Though no definite statement has been made, Is regarded as most alarming.
 Ever since his short Premiership in nSeA-e5, Lord Rosebery's behavior has been spasmodic, cratic and unaccount- able except by his state of health. Whilo in ofics he was the victim Of acute insomnia getting only about an hours sieep q night, and this insom- mia was the real cause of the abrupt nnding of his ministry.
 For the last ten years. he has most iy lived a secluded life, with occasional Bursts of political activity He has given no regular attention to public affairs and for long periods cut him- self off entirely from his political cole leagues From time to time he would disappear mysteriously and be heard of cruising in the Mediterranean ip his yacht.
 while the House of Lords was dis russing the important Education Bill, which 1t ultimately killed, last year. Lord Rosebery attended the House, si- aently listening to the debate, but ale though he might have done something with one of his brilliant speeches to save the work of his party from de- struction, he disappeared from Vest minister without uttering a word.
 The present illness of the Earl Is much more serious than the nervous breakdown which caused him to resign in 1895. Some people think 1t was brought on by his trying experience in ahe blizzard last Christmas. when his automobile was upset in the snow on lonely Scotch road and he had to tramp many miles at night to reach shelter.

 London, March 23--The liberal gov srnment is in difficulties on two great issues which 1t has pledged itself to solve--the position of the House of Lords and the future of Irsland's gov ernment.
 With regard to the peers. the gov srnment has not quite made up It's mind how to proceed. but 1t intends to probably by introducing either a re- form bill or a resolution.
 The feature of the proposed reform. though it is all very nebulous as yet is that the Lords should have power to vote Legislation in only one session of any Parliament, and if dissolution tntervsned before their session of pow. CT, they should be deprived of all pow or in that Parliament.
 The obstacle confronting the govern uaent in its Irish policy is Sir Anthony MacDonneli. Permanent Secretary to the Irish Minister. He was given a permanency at Dublin Castle by the late conservative government and as he holds his appointment for a term of years he cannot be replaced by c liberal. His attitude Is sternly bureau cratic and he Is unsympathetic to any scheme of giving Ireland any approach ao Home Rule.
 Sir Anthony was trained in the In- alan Civil Service, which has given Aim very undemocratic ideas, and he is xhe despair of the Home Rulers of the government. The new Minister, Au- gustin Birrell, is, however. showing himself of masterful character and will probably handle Mcdonnell with more drmness than Mir. James Bryce, now British Minister to Washington was able to do.

Defeat of the Socialists. ,ne of the first effects of the T eat of the Socialists at the DO

One of the first effects of the recent defeat of the Socialists at the polls in London will undoubtedly be the clos- ing of the large number of socialistfc Sunday schools in which children are taught revolutionary and atheistIc doc trines and which have long been arous- ing the indignation of the more con- servative element
 With the official sanction of the Lon- don County Council schools have been opened in which children each Sunday were taking part in service" which was a parody of a religious service and which consisted largely fin attacks on capitalism. Hymns glorifyinE the red flag wers sung and the children were told that the king and his government were nothing but a gang of robbers and thieves.
 Flays "HearfIess Vampires.
 Father Bernard Vaughan, the now famous Catholic priest, continues to Hay the smart set and especially the society women. whom he has repeated ly characterized as heart1ess vampires
 In his latest sermon, preached last Sunday, he said that the women of the upper classes were becoming so indif- ferent to truth that they thought that truth was just what they wished 1t to be, and some told the truth only when they did not have the other thing ready.
 T. do not denounce what are called white Hes. he said, ..but what do denounce z is the lie of the society lady who pleads poverty where it is a question of hay ing an operation performed on her child in order that she may buy q new automobile with the money rightfully belonging to the operating surgeon.
 We constantly hear of ladies when asked at the fashionable shops to pay their bills being prepared to swear that they have already done so.
 But what can we expect from peo- pie who go to see such plays as are imported from the continent to this countryf Some of them--not all of them-are the embodiments of lies in- fldelity and everything else that is false and grossly wicked. What is the good of having 6 censor if there are still plays performed to which some cannot go7
 'Tt is shameful life that gives birth to shameful plays. The drama reflects, 1t does not create life, and what we see and hear of on the stage is but what we see in the mirror, for, as we are drama holds the mirror up to nature poisoned, tainted in the cesspooI of vice.

 Van Dyke Portraits Disappear.
 Mystery surrounds the supposed ac- quisiticn by Pierpont Morgan of six portraits by vandyke formerly in pos session of the Marquis Cattaneo of Genoa.
 The paintings representing ancestors of the Cattaneo family were sold after the death of the Marquis to an Ital- ian dealer who paid less than $200.0o0 for the lot He must have made a big profit on the deal. but just what the great American collector. paid for the pictures Is not known. Two of the pic- lures are life size women and the oth- er four are smaller.
 '"The Corsair" MT. Morgan's yacht came to Genoa apparently to get the pictures but there is no actual knowl- edge that they were taken on board. That much is sure, however--the six Vandykes have vanished as if they had been spirited away by some art loving magician.
 Meanwhile some of the most priminent art collectors and directors of galleries in Europe are stirring themselves to find some way of stemming the flow of the old worlds art treasures across the Atlantic. They propose to form a Holy Alliance" of all the European oonnois- CUTS against the American collectors who buy up all the greatest master pieces. and hope to get the financial or at least the moral support of all the European governments.

Ireland May Grow Tobacco.

Ireland may soon be freed from the prohibition to grow tobacco. as a bill with this object has the support of the government. Once tobacco was a four ishing industry in Ireland, but seventy years ago 1t was forbidden. It had been encouraged before the American war of independence to punish the vir- ginia planters for disloyalty.
 Tobacco grown privately in County Meath by Colonel Nugent Everard has been declared by Professor Harper of the University of Kentucky. tobacco expert. to be equal to the best grown in Virginia, so 1t seems quite likely that tobacco growing will be among the industries that are destined to re- generate Ireland in the future.
