Interest has been aroused In Germany
by an article in the Anzeiger. which
declares that royal women of the pres
ent day are infinitely cleverer and more
resourceful than were those of a gem
Grafton ago. Many princesses and
other women Of the royal houses of
Europe, says the writer, would be cap
able of earning good incomes as skill
ed workers were they suddenly de-
prived of their titles, rank and accom-
panying possessions.
Princess Hermine, Of Reuss. for ex-
ample, a sister of the reigning Prince
Henry XIV, is a skilled matchmaker,
and has frequently shown her work
at German exhibitions.
Princess Arnulf of Bavaria, when
still Princess Therese OF Leichtenstein,
was one of the stanchest patrons OF
charity bazaars in Vienna.
The Archduchess Friedrich of Aus
tria, who was born Princess Isabelle
of Croy, has a remarkable hobby in
the making of scented wax candles.
The Duchess Of Guise (who was Prin-
cess Isabelle Of Bourbon Orleans) is a
skillful milliner and maker of artih-
cial flowers.
Princess Carl OF Sweden, a daughter
Of King Frederick VIII Of Denmark,
has since her early days been a clever
maker of children's toys.

The MIorosooDo.

There is good reason to believe that
the magnlfying power Of transparent
media with convex surfaces was very
early known. A convex lens OF rock
crystal was found by Layard among
the ruins Of the palace OF Nimrud.
And It is pretty certain that after the
invention Of glass hollow spheres
blown OF that material were commonly
used as magnifiers. The perfocikon OF
gem cutting shown In ancient gems,
especially in those Of very minute
size. could not have been attained
without the use Of such aids TO the
eye, and there can be little doubt that
the artifcers who could execute those
wonderful works could also shape and
polish the magnifers best Suafed for
their own or others uso,-Alow York

CAMPAIGN
ON TUBERCULOSIS

The executive committee Of the Della
ware Tuberculosis Society held a
special meeting in No COZ West street
yesterday to prepare a statement Of its
needs to pursue further the anti-tuber-
culosis fight in this State. The state
ment was made at the request of the
Red Cross Society," which is to share
the receipts from the sale OF lis
Christmas and New Year stamps with
the ti-tuberculosis society. Dr..
Harold Springer presided.
In cases OF advanced tuberculosis
the committee thought the sanitarium
established in Brandywine hundred
was not available and in the state
ment of it's needs, an item was mem
toned for a new building costing $500
to take it's place.
The committee also decided to re-
quest the Red Cross TO appoint a COM
mittee to confer with a committee
from the anti-tuberculosis society as
10 a site for a sanitarium 10 take the
place of the present one. Jt is asserted
that the present sanitarium Is too far
from the city ana is not favored with
good transportat facilities. In view
of a possible change Of location. the
committee viii recommend that the
Red Cross hold $500 in reserve as
the beginning of a fund for an ad-
ministration building.
The establishment Of a dispensary
for consumptives here was favored and
with a nurse and provision for six
months It was estimated that it would
REQUIRE from $500 to 500.
Altogether the three recommenda-
tions of the committee fully cover the
sum held by the Red Cross from the
sale Of its novel little stamps The
Red Cross viii meet next week 20

st. Petersburg, Sept. 23-The chol.
era epidemic, which continues to as
sumo more appalling proportions every
day, has concentrated the attention of
the st. Petersburg authorities on the
long-neglected task Of improving the
water supply and sewer facilities of
the capital. The sewers now empty
into the river Neva or the open canals
traversing the city and the water sup
ply is taken from the river. This in
spite of the fact that Lake Ladoga, 20
miles away, offers an abundant supply
OF fresh water that could be obtained
at small expense. The mayor of St.
Petersburg, at the instigation of Pre-
mier stolypin. has appointed a COM
mission to arrange for immediate ac-
ton in these directions. The central
government will share a part of the
expense.
The municipal hospitals reported,

CRAzEO BLACK STAYS TWO.
MULAT1o INMATE OF ASYLUM
CAPTURED AFTER FIGHT.
Man Kills Girl and overseer Of
Grounds Injuries Another
Young Woman.

Washington, Sept. 23.-In demo
niacal fury, Andrew Lightfoot, mulat-
to inmate at the ST. Elizabeth Asylum
for the Insane, killed Patrick Ma,
loney, the overseer OF the grounds.
and Millie Follin, a young inmate of
the asylum, and severely injured Miss
Robinson, another inmate, Tuesday.
The murderer escaped from the
grounds and fled to the swamps near
by, where shortly afterward Gordon
of police, a score Of them in all, quick
ly surrounded the place of his conceal
ment. He was finally caught after the
police found it necessary to shoot him,
inflicting wounds in the leg, and he
was taken back to the asylum.
The murder occurred directly in
front of the main building for the
men patients at the asylum, which is
a government institution. Maloney,
SO years old, lived on the place with
his family. Lightfoot, 40 years old.
has been patient at the hospital for
eight years and was regarded as Of q
harmless nature. For some time he
has been serving as an assistant to
the overseer. He was given in that
capacity some of the privileges akin
to those accorded the TRUSTEES" in
criminal institutions It was Tues
day morning when Lightfoot became
suddenly violently insane. Grasping
an iron bar which was close at hand,
he struck at Ma1oney and tho h1ow
landed on the overseer's head, crush
ing the skull and causing instant
death. Immediately the murderer
sought to effect his escape. Mile
Follin was in his way, and he struck
at her, also crushing her skull. She
dropped dead to the ground.
Continuing In his flight, he encoun-
tered Miss Robinson and tried to kill
her. The aim was bad, however, and
he succeeded in inficting only q
slight scalp wound and a broken arm.
