Richest Family in Europe.

1t is not generally known that the
imperial family of Russia is the
richest royal family in Europe, and
derives its vast wealth from three
sourees-the State treasury, the i'm
perial domains formerly church
Iands) and the so-called cabinet
properties. A writer in Harper's
Weekly gives some interesting facts.
The State treasury provides for the
CzsT as the sovereign; the imperial
domains are the joint property of the
members of the House of Romanoff,
out administered by the head of the
house; and the cabinet properties
are the personal property Of the
reigning sovereign as such
The State treasury pays out
$7,00O,000 per annum for the needs
| Of the imperial house, principally for
the maintenance Of the palaces and
the officials and servants attached to
them. The reigning empress, for ex-
ample, has an allowance of 500, 900
per year, and the dowager empress
| the same Every child born to the
Gar receives from birth to the age
Of twenty-one nearly $4,000 a year,
while the heir to the throne receives
annually, in addition to the mainte-
nance of palaces, $4,000 Daugh-
tiers receive dowry of one million
roubles when they marry. The fig
ures under this head are comparative
Iy modest, and the total expenditure
charged to the State treasury is less
than one per cent. of the annual
budget.

Primroses had been strewn over its
coverlet of ivy.
Mrs Cleveland with Esther and
Richard at her side, stood between
the graves as the Rev. DR. William
r. Richards, pastor Of the Brick Pres
byterian Church, of n ~ York, read
the committals service and pronounced
the benediction. This concluded the
obsequies
President Roosevelt and his party
left the cemetery before Mrs, Cleve-
land and her children entered their
carriage to be driven to Westland.
The services over the grave lasted
less than ten minutes.
On two sides of the grave, which
is under the shadow of the mortuary
chapel, were banked the floral trib-
utes. Prominent among them was a
wreath of roses sent by President and
Mrs. Roosevelt

when without warning the locomo-
tive boiler blew up. Just how the &C.
cident occurred is unknown.
The body of Engineer Roberts was
found on the track. The body of
Fireman Holman was blown into a
cornfield 800 yards to the rear of the
engine. A strange feature of the ac-
cident vas that HolmanE overalls,
which he wore at the time of the ac-
cident, we're found hanging in the
telegraph wires thirty feet above the
track. 1t is supposed that his body
shot directly through the wires.
Donnelly was blown down the
Stelton Lane road. in what is known
as the cut, near the bridge, a distance
of ESQ yards. All of the bodies were
badly mangled. The locomotive
which blew up is the same one that
killed Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac P Dunn,
two well known residents of Stelton,
at the Steiton crossing as they were
returning from services in the Bap-
fist Church there two years ago.

Grover Cleveland was the twenty
second President of the United States.
file was three times nominated by the
Democratic party for the highest Of
fee within the gift of the people and
twice elected to that Office. AS the
history of the country is written from
decade to decade and from century
to century, he will be rated in his
tory in comparison with his prede-
cessors and his successors in that
high office. His rating will undoubt-
eddy be high.
Grover Cleveland was born March
Is, 1887, in the village of Caldwell,
N. j., nine miles from Newark, in a
house still standing, the parsonage
of the First Presbyterian Church.
His father, the Rev. Richard F.
Cleveland a graduate of Yale, was
Presbyterian minister of high
character, strong preacher, and fine
scholar, whose forbears were Con-
necticut Yankees. His mother was
Ann Neal, the daughter of an Irish
bookseller and German Quakeress.
The fifth of their nine children was
christened Stephen Grover, for the
minister who had preceded the clergy
man in the Caldwell pastorate.
When Grover was four years old
] the family moved to Fayetteville,
near Syracuse, N. Y, travelling by the
h canal, and afterward to Clinton, N
Y. In those places the boy got his
schooling, and the tradition is that
he was in no wise remarkable at his
books.
In 1853 the death of his father
Obliged him to earn his own living.
With his older brother he came to
New York and found place as

A curious court story went the
rounds some little time ago about a
lovely foreigner, one of whose verbal
slips gave King Edward occasion for
a hearty laugh. A very lively person
age with delightful accent, she
made such favorable impression up
on the King that he asked her to be
his partner at bridge. But, sir, ?
she said, Il really don't know how
to play The King would take no
denial, however, and she became
rather embarrassed. II assure you,
SIR she said, II could not think OF
playing. I don't know the difference
between the king and the knave. .
There was an awkward silence, and
then she realized what she had said
and was covered with confusion. The
King, of course. laughed it off, and
now tells the story with gusto. -

flied by it, or has friends who have.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at
Lynn, Mass, any womanany daymay
see the files containing over one mil
lion one hundred thousand letters
from women seeking health, and
here are the letters in which they
openly state over their own sigma
lures that they were cured by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Lydia e. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has saved many women
from surgical operations.
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable
! Compound is made from roots and
herbs, without drugs, and is whole
some and harmless.
The reason why Lydia E. Pink

to healthy normal condition.
Women who are suffering from
those distressing ills peculiar to their
sex should not lose sight of these
facts or doubt the ability of Lydia
