Most Gorgeous Burial Vault In the
World Is That in Which Repose
the Bodies of SPANS
Former Rulers.

The escurial in which for nearly
three centuries the kings and queens
of Spain have been buried is said to be
the most gorgeous burial vault in the
world.
1t Is an octagonal chamber, SO feet
across, with its walls, save where the
collins stand, entirely overlaid with
precious marbles. The staircase which
leads to it is of marble with Jasper
walls. The general effect is unspeak.
ably splendid. In the midst of this
magnificence are the massive black
marble Baskets let into the walls, con
tanning the bodies themselves. They
are all exactly alike, inscribed simply
with the names of the different kings
and queens. There is room for Just
six more monarchs and their consorts.
OF another character altogether is

WANTED THE WORLDS OPINION.
Prisoner Had to Have That, Though
He Went Without Luxuries.

A certain prisoner landed in Jail al
most penniless. He was a man who
had figured in a number of the towns
shady transactions and his name was
pretty well known. A few days after
his incarceration he wrote to a friend
asking for a monthly allowance of ten
dollars to be continued during his
term of Imprisonment. The friend, re-
Numbering past favors, RENTED the
amount each month during a period
that covered two trials and the long
time intervening. One day it occurred
to him to inquire into the manner of
expanding the allowance. He sup
posed it was used to buy occasional
extra meals, a few cigars and newspa-
pers, but just as a matter of curiosity
he asked for particulars. He found, to
his establishment, that the prisoner
had never ordered an extra meal and
had not smoked a cigar all the time
he had been in Jail.
Then what in thunder" demand
ed the man, have you been doing
with that ten dollars a month";

lohn DIs Earle Stone.

John D. Rockefeller pretends that
he is not and never was superstitious;
still he carries in his pocket an eagle
stone. 1t is a perforated stone of great
antiquity, found in an eagles nest, and
is supposed to be a charm against
disease, shipwreck and other dis
asters. 1t is of a brownish tint and
about the size of a pigeon egg. When
shaken it rattles as if another stone
were inclosed within it. A ribbon
passed through the perforation is said
to possess more virtues than ever
John D. himself. When the old gentle
man wants to confer a particular favor
upon some one he gives a few inches
of this ribbon.-New York Press.

the tombs. The local name for the
vault is the place of the little angels"
and though many of the princes who
lie here were not at all angelic in
their lives the impression left by the
white marble wings of the statues is
one of spotless purity.
One unfortunate Spanish king, Don
Jaime IL. of Aragon, is daily on view
in the cathedral Of Palma, in Majorca.
The sacristan of the place takes you
to a yellow marble monument In the
choir, opens a cupboard, and pulls out
a very ordinary coffin with a glass lid.
AS poor Don Jaime died in the four
tenth century, he is not now at all
a lively spectacle. His mummy is
made gay, however, with imitation
royal robes-cottony ermine, and so

As the duke spends nearly all his
time exploring the wilds and the most
dangerous corners of the world, it is
reasonable to suppose that his wife
will be his companion in his future
expeditions. As Miss Elk!ns is a thor

How easily, beautifully and sweetly
some people go through life, with very
little to jar them or to disturb their
equanimity. They have no discord in
their lives because their natures are
harmonious. They seem to love every
body, and everybody loves them. They
have no enemies, hence little suffering
or trouble, says o. s. Marden, in Sue
cess Magazine.
Others, with ugly, Grabbed, cross
grained dispositions, are always in hot
water. They are always misunder-
stood. People are constantly hurting
them. They generate discord because
they are dlscordant themselves.

Met at Washington Ball.

The duke met Miss Elkins at a ball
in Washington given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Larz Anderson. Col. Bromwell, aide
to President Roosevelt, introduced the
handsome young Italian prince to the
senator's daughter.
Everybody in Washington exerted
themselves to entertain the duke when
he was here officially, but it was left
to Miss Elkins to make the ten-strike.
Let me do something for you," she
said, chatting one day with the duke.
I'll give you a dinner, a dance or a
theater party"
"Tll take them ALL" answered the
duke promptly.
So, one day, many of the friends OF
Miss Elkins received cards to a dinner
in honor of the duke of the Abruzzi.
After the dinner Miss Elkins an
nounced that they would attend the
theater, and off they were whirled in
autos. After the theater the entire
party was whizzed up to R~auscher's,
the Sherry's Of Washington, where
Miss Elkins had invited a party for
dancing.
To his amazement the duke had en-
joyed a dinner, the theater and a
dance all in n evening.
But that Is nothing new for Miss
Elkins. She has always had her own
way. She is the only daughter Of the
senator by his second marriage. She

saving in time to have a water box
like this, as it saves pouring water

The duke earnestly objected to any
talk about a dot. He is rich in his

none of his affair.
Duke Born in Madrid.
Luigi Amadeo, now duke of the Alb
ruzzi, was born in Madrid in 1878. just
10 days before his father abdicated.
He has two older brothers, the prince
of Aosta and the count of Turin. Be-
fore them, however, comes the king of
Italy's son, Crown Prince Umberto,
four years old. The prince of Aosta
has two sons, six and four years old,
all of whom, beside the count of Turin,
stand between the duke of the Abruzzi
and the throne.
1OuSu hS plduuo Hl6h III INC la
liam navy, the duke of the Abruzzi gets
his chief claim to fame as an explorer
and mountain climber.
Nine years ago he assembled Mount
st. Elias, in Alaska, one Of the tallest
American peaks. Two years later he
sought the north pole. One of his
party reached Sc degrees 9S minutes
north, beating hansen an holding the
worlds record until Peary beat it.
His Name Free from Scandal.
Clean-lived and with his name I'M
touched by any kind Of scandal, he en-
tertains the most romantic affection
for his aunt, Queen Marguerite, who
played the part of a mother to him
after the death of Queen Victoria,
while he was yet in infancy. He has
shown his devotion in many touching
ways. When he scaled and explored
Ruwenzori, he gave her name to it's
loftiest peak. He is the third of three
brothers, the two elder being the duke
of Aosta and the count of Turin. He
has also a half-brother, Count Salemi,
the issue of his fathers marriage to
Princess Letitia B~onapaIte.
The fortune Of the duke of the
Abruzzi is estimated at 1900, 900. He
has less than his brothers, owing to
the fact that he has met personally the
expenses of his various expeditions,
but there is still more property yet to
be divided among the brothers. He
has a private income from his moth.

So 1t went on, season after season,
until the duke of the Abruzzi came
here. He had met American girls be-
fore, but here was a different kind.
This particular pair met at the tia
