All princes are not endowed with so much philosophy But then, too. all sceptres do not constitute such heavy burdens as that of Emperor Nicholas. And Prince Napoleon (Jerome). uncle of the present attorney general of the | United States, is on record as having made no effort to. conceal his cruel disappointment when the birtn of the illf4ted prince imperial in 1857, at Paris. robbed him of the rank of heir apparent to the throne cf France, which he had enjoyed as long as the marriage of his cousin, Napoleon H.. and Empress Eugenie had remained without issue. Firmly convinced that their union would be childless. he had grown accustomed to regard himself as destined to inherit iLe crown, and Tad already mapped out the policy which he intended to pursue when in- vested with the reins of power. The birth of the prince imperial meant to him the destruction of the hopes. the plans, and the ambitions of a life time, and so strong were his feelings on the subject that he found 1t quite impossible to conceal his intense cha grin. Few people are aware of the fact that at the time of the accession of queen Victoria, in 1887. this same Prince Napoleon stood fifth in the line of succession to the throne of Eng land. through his mother, Princess Caroline of Wurtemberg. who was a descendant of King George H. Of Eng land. As a Roman Catholic, Prince Napoleon would, of course. have been barred fro-l the British crown. But he was so indifferent to matters of re- ligion that it is doubtful whether he

For after enjoying for a tune the rank and prerogatives of heir apparent. not only to the throne of Italy, but also to the crown of Spain. he has been obliged to surrender them.

Queen Helena presented her husband with a son. who bears the title of prince Of Piedmont. and whose birth entirely changed the status of the duke of AOsta. depriving him of his preroga- tives as next to the king in the line of succession. While the duke is said to have borne this second setback with apparent equanimity, it is no secret that his French consort. one of the most beautiful and gifted princesses in Europe. hss keenly felt the disap- pointment of all her ambitions.

DUAL TELEPHONE SERVICE

The fghtino blood of San Bernardino
is stirred concern,pg a matter of VIDE
spread interest. In regard to the dual
telephone nuisance "the worm has
turned" in that enterprising city. The
long suffering citizens have determined
that the evaporation incident to the
working of one telephone system is all
that human patience can stand and
that the forcing of two systems upon
the community is provocative Of homi-
eide.
Such seems to be the conclusion of
the citizens of San Bernardino If we
may judge from the enthusiasm evoked
by an effort to reduce the telephone SER
vice to single system. Practically all
the telephone users in the city, as re-
ported, have signed an agreement to
discard one Of the systems now in op-
GRAFTON. Having determined upon that
step the next thing is to decide which
| of the two companies shall be turned
down.
Just how that primary difficulty shall
intimated that a decision will be
reached by -ote. The company that
receives the least support will be with
out customers If tn proposition meets
! with no fatal disaster Whether the
plan is feasible or not is a question that
many other cities will be pleased to see
tested.
| Telephone users in Los Angeles par
ticularly will watch with eager interest
the experiment in San Bernardino. This
city is credited with more telephone
| customers per capita than any other
large city in America. The nuisance OF
a double service is a perennial source
of evaporation to the whole community
and the unification of the business in a
single company would be hailed with
universal delight
But the prospect for such a result In
Los Angeles is dubious. When the new
company catered the field in this city
1t was gladly received because Of the
wretched service Of the old company
Notwithstanding the certainty that q
dual service would be annoying ant
expensive.
IT is not probable that the plan Of
elimination undertaken in San Bernar,
, dino would be practicable in Los An,
geles. Any attempt to adopt that plar
in this city would be likely to caus,
an acrimonious wrangle ending il
failure.
Municipal ownership and operation Of
the telephone system offers the onl,
logical solution of the problem bu
the danger of intrusting it to politica
partisans with graft proclivities re-
calls the alternative Of jumping out Of

PEOPLE OF SKIDDOO WANT
NEW NAME FOR TOWN
Special to The Herald.


FRANKLIN, Pa, April 1S.-The
name Of Cherrytree was given recently
to what was formerly Grant, in In
diana county, in order that the his
toric spot where William Penn and the
Indians met under a cherry tree, and
concluded the boundary agreement
might be fittingly commemorated.
The postmaster was asked to suggest
another name for the erstwhile Cherry
tree, name the postoffice had borne
for more than fifty years. Feeling that
this was momentous question, the
postmaster pondered for a long time
and then suggested that an exchange
of names would be a good idea, so that
as Grant had taken their name, they
should take the name of Grant. This
suggestion was rejected by the author
tiles on the ground that the exchange
of names might lead to unending con-
fusion, and he received a polite noti-
fication that he had better think again.
This taxed the inventive faculties of
the postmaster, who asked his little
daughter to select a name, and she sug-
gested Skiddoo.
This suggestion the proud father for
warded to Washington. The authori-
ties promptly accepted it, The older
residents of the community, however,
are by no means pleased with the
nomenclature. They point out the ter
rible evils which are wrought by the
indiscriminate use of slang, and its
gradual incorporation into the lam
guage, and they further contend that
they have already been subjected to a
considerable amount of ridicule, and
consequently want the name changed.
The younger generation suggest that
"Twenty-three" be substituted for
"Skiddoo." The older and staider mem
bers of the community, being happily
in the majority, contemplate sending a
petition to the postal authorities to
have the Objectionable name changed.

HOUND SCENTS HIS WAY
HOME WITH HEAD IN CAN
Special to The Herald.

SHERBURNE, VT, April 1S.-Even
a fox hound, whose business end lies
in it's nose, must have remarkable
powers of smell to find his way five
miles through the woods when his
that is the way Bert Whitman looks at
it, and he is very proud Of his dog,
Spark.
Spark went hunting recently with
his master and when it became dusk
he was still running crafty old rey-

and no calling him off, so Whitman
left him to return home when he got
ready. Frequently he had packed his
gun down the mountain while the
hound was still believing on a hot
scent and he had no fear as to his
showing up along in the night.
At 10 o'clock, when there We're no
signs of Spark, Whitman left the
kitchen door ajar, placed big pan of
mush and soup bones on the floor and
went to bed. Three hours later he
was awakened by a Gathering in the
kitchen, and a moment later the hound,
with his head stuck in a two-gallon
milk can, waddled erratically into the
bedroom. To say that the animals

viii Soon Pay Dividends
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
RHYOLITE, New, April 1S.-Southern
Nevada mines have reached a point in
their development when in the cases
of the leasing properties the beginning
of dividend paying is but question of
months.
With two custom mills contemplated
for the Bullfrog district, with the
Montgomery-Shosh mill practically
complete, with money set aside by the
| Homestake mine for a mill for that
property and with one proposed for the
Gold Bar, to say nothing Of the Keene
Wonder mill and the proposed Ash
Meadows smelter, H. G. Mcmahon has
announced the building Of a mill for
use on the Banner and Midas mines
east of Beatty
Unlike the mill at the Bonnie Claire
mine, which at the present time is the
only mill operating in the district, the
new Banner and Midas mill will have
capacity of 200 tons.
Mr.. Mcmahon is quoted as saying
that plans for the mill were being
drawn and that work upon the founda
tions would begin within the next sixty
days.
A water right is held by this COM
pany at the foot of the Banner hill and
here the mill will be built, while the
ore for the crushers will be brought
from the mine by an aerial tram.
AS the Banner and Midas stand today
they have equipments equal to that of
any set of mines in the district, for a
twelve-drill compressor is on the ground
and two hoists are in operation, while
the mine buildings and blacksmith shop
are modern in every way. In fact, the
blacksmith shop is combined with q
small tool shop.
The reason for the immediate work
upon the mill is found in Superintend-
ent Strehlke's report of a twenty-five
foot vein Of rich sulphide milling ore
that will run $32 to the ton on the
Midas, while the regular ore body of
the property has been opened for a
distance Of 400 feet on each property.
The Banner stock practically is all
pooled and the men who are operating
it are paying strict attention to min
ing and are letting the quotations on
change take care Of themselves.
