s.rv,an Prtncc cominr.

America may have the honor of the visit of the most notorious Prince in Europe, Crown Prince George of Ser via.
 Having tried every means to make his son behave at home. King Peter oi Servia has decided to let him travel abroad.
 The young man will travel incognito. perhaps because he so wishes, but more likely because any scandals in which he will surely be implicated will then not disgrace the royal Servian family.
 Prince George goes first to Vienna, then to Berlin and from there to Lon don, where he will visit the Balkan Exposition.
 Leaving England he will cross the Atlantic as a first class passenger on one of the regular boats He will pc- cupy an ordinary state room, King Peter not being rich enough to have his son travel in cabin de luxe.

Hotel Taboes Tipping.

The tipping system. which is the greatest drawback encountered in Europe by the American of modern means, is to be absent from new hotel planned for London.
 Instead of the guests being fleeced by rows or servants with hungry palms, he need only pay what he likes with his bill for distribution among the servants.
 In every bedroom there will be a card giving list of the servants with whom the visitor comes in contact. Then he can mark on the card any amount which he desires given to any particular servant. hand in the card with his bill, and the sum is added to the ordinary charges. He has also the choice of subscribing to the servants s fund, which will be divided among all the employees.
 Unfortunately for the American tourist, the hotel where this admirable system is to be adopted is the United Services Cooperative Hotel, which will not be open to casual visitors. but will be run on the lines of the Army and Navy Stores, where no one can deal except subscribers.

WARNS PEOPLE OF EPIDEMIC Dr. Simpson Lectures in
 London. PLAGUE NOT THING OF PAST Fsur Millions Have Died in Four Years.
 English House of Lords Is Preparine to
 Defend Itself Against Effort to Rob it of Power.
BY ROBERT BRoDERICK.

London July 6--A warning that the plaques which ravaged Europe in the Middle ages. sweeping away half the population have not disappeared for eyer was given by Dr. w. J. R. simpson in a lecture before the Royal College of Physicians in London.
 During the last ten and one hait years" said the lecturer owed i've million deaths have taken place rom plague. four millions of which nave taken place during the last four years. It is because of this mortality and because of the beliefs held, q think erroneously) that plague is a thing Of the past so far as Europe Is concerned. and will not occur in epidemic form again, that I have decided to lecture on this subject.
 "Quiescence in plans for varying periods Is not new feature of the disease. It is necessary to emphasize this fact. I think the view held as to the invulnerability of Europe Is as likely to be as correct as the view that London was freed from plague by the great fire of 16S6. -.-
 "The effect of a plague epidemic on the living is very marked. A great number are unable to bear the scenes round them and the proofs-of the un- certainty of life. Minds. before quite calm, become excitable, leading to H. lusions and delusions. which in some cases become dangerous and contagt- ous Normal courage become weaken ed, and men become affected with feel ings of the deepest pity, and religious fervor. This is followed by a total revulsion, leading to a display of shs worst and most sordid passions on the part of degraded people"

Burns UnsightIy Houses.

The primitive idea of Charles Lambs immortal Chinaman, who burnt down his house, with his pig inside, every time he had a yearning for roast pork, has been put in practice by the fre- men of Siebenlehn, Saxony. With the conpivance of the local authorities and
 some leading residents, they have been seeking to make the town beautiful by burning down the old and unsightly houses.
 This novel system of improvement
 was started by the fire companies when they met and feasted after payment of the insurance money, and the local
 authorities refrained from interfering
 because the result of the incendiarism was the beautifying of the town. which
 gained new buildings in place of tum- ble-down tenements. The scheme has now. been cut short
 by the prosecution of a number of the officials concerned. Three of the fire men have been sent to jail for three and a half years, with loss of civil rights for six years, while four of their
 accomplices got less severe sentences.

Dnfx of Socialists.

"Ought Socialist to accept any or. der or decoration from the Kaiser r' is a question which is being discussed in Socialist circles here.
 The discussion arises from the fact that Julius Andersen. Socialist mem- Der of the Municipal Council of Aar- bus, Denmark, has been made a knight of Deanbrage by King Frederick VIII. of Denmark, and has accepted the honor. In turn he was expelled from his party because he would neith- CT return the insignia of the order nor resign from the Municipal Council It seems quite idle talk for German Socialists to debate this, for thugh the Kaiser is a Christian monarch, I am sure he does not love his enemies enough to bestow either red or black eagles upon them.

The plan for a rev building was developed to the point of getting $2OO0OO appropriated from congress, while the other republics interested contributed $125,OOO, on the basis of their respective popula- ton. This was scarcely as much money as the bureau needed but with the generous contribution of MT Car negle, which was made after consul tation with the president and Secre- tary Root, it will be possible to erect a magnificent home for the bureau with administrative offices, reading rooms and a library to house the bu- reaus unique collection of books, which now amounts to over l2.QQ0 volumes.

RECORDING THE GREAT EVENT.
Wedding Books Great Source of In.
 terest and Pleasure.

.
 Wedding books are by no means new idea, but bought ones are expen- sive and lacking in individuality. The woman who is clever with her fingers and brain can make one for the friend who is about to become bride, which is bound to be great source of inter- est and pleasure.
 If she is good at making pen-and-ink sketches she wants nothing better for her purpose than water-color paper the block sheets for her pages and the more elaborate single sheets for her cover.
 Each page is supposed to be set apart for some special record of hap. pening on that wedding day and should have it's appropriate inscription in old English lettering and an accompany ing sketch at the top.
 There must be space for a bit of the brides gown. leaf for the spray from the bouquet she wants to keep, pages for newspaper clippings chron- icing the great event, pages for the in cident that some member of the bridal party feels should not be forgotten. Guests may write their names and their special wishes for the happiness Of the newly welded pair. and the pass ing of the years adds greater interest to the history herein recorded.

Senator La Toilette has at last made himself felt in sEa senate not withstanding the practically complete conspiracy of the republicans to pc vent his accomplishing anything. Thursday his bill. fixing the hours of service of rliI o:.u trainE,en was passed by q vote of 70 to 1. :, Gcsl rctahle tri;,,nph for any senator and particularly so for him. He played as clever coup on the senate as ev- CT was seen His original measure was amended out of recognizable form, twenty-five amendments were pending, and the chances for talking it to death were good Whereupon La Toilette blandly arose and offered an amendment to strike out all of tie original bill after the enact;ns clause. and substitute new one. The new one included the substance of all the amendments, which he had been willing to accept, and was so clear and explicit that one senator only dared to vote against it. Briefly eX- pressed. it will secure to every rrain- man the certainty of at least eight hours rest out of each days work.

Monday or Tuesday of next week the president will send to the senate mass of additional evidence con corning the Brownsville case. But the case is practically dead now. Foraker is to talk again and Tillinnn is yet to make his speech. but since the agreement that the right of the nresident to take the course he cid shall not be attacked was reached the sensationalism has vanished. All that is left now is the assertion that in acting within his legal rights he committed certain gross injusiices. Nobody thinks this will be proved by evidence presented from the White house. The evidence to be collected under the Foraker resolution. which will doubtlss pass. will not come in until the next session of congress. Therefore interest in the subject bas waned and not even the cOlored citi- zens of Washington. who Monday and Tuesday. packed the senate gal leries to suffocation-or worse--now visits the capitol. At the same time if remains a vital question whether Mir Roosevelt did not punish three companies for the sins of perhaps fifteen men. and then follow it up by nunishing all the colored regiments in the United States army for the Brownsville outbreak.

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Though baking powder can be bought so cheap, many housewives like to make their own; so here is good recipe: Mix together till free from Jumps a quarter of pound each of carbonate of soda, cream of tartar and ground rice. Keep in airtight tins.
 Cheese should never be left uncov- cred. The way of Keeping it is to wrap it in damp-not wet--cloth or towel
 Cheese that has become dry can be pounded on plate with knife--or, better still, in wooden bowl with the end of the rolling pin, and small piece of butter. When mixed, it can be used, seasoned with pepper, for sandwiches, and the remainder, well pressed down, stored in covered jar. It can also be grated and used for cheese dishes.
 Jam is better for homemade tarts if spread on when the paste is nearly or quite cold If baked on the tart, the paste underneath is likely to become sodden and heavy.

Quite an important holiday contri- button was made to Washington last week by Andrew Carnegie, who has announced his intention of donating s15o.0C0. for a permanent home for the bureau of American republics. says a Washington writer. The south is. perhaps. more interested

A warm fight is raging in the treasury department at Washington over the proposed establishment of Il new sub-treasury somewhere iu the south. The location of this institu- ton lies nominally with the secre- tary of the treasury, but as matter of fact he usually leaves the selection partially to business men from the section to be served by the sub treasury and principally to the ecle- gations in congress having an inter- est in the district affect. In the present case there is a hot fight on between Atlanta, Birmingham, Mem- phis. Tennessee, Jackson. Miss, and several less important towns. Secre- tary Shaw has not given any direct indication of what his final choice will be, but Congressman Livingston has made a desperate fight in favor of Atlanta. with Birmingham as q second choice. Representatives of the Memphis interest have also been after the secretary. bur it Is believed if the matter is settled purely upon it's geographical merits that Atlanta will be selected as best serving the interests of the country affected.
