q cure for All Evils

In certain parts of Worcestershire
and Staffordshire, in England, the idea
prevails that a silver ce'n from the
Christmas morning offertory is a sov-
ereign remedy for any III that human
flesh is heir to. Accordingly, any
householder who happens to have an
ailing child or other person In the
house hies him to the clergyman Of
the parish on Christmas morning, and
asks as a favor sacrament shilling
The coin given in exchange has 20 be
obtained by collecting dozen pennies
from as many different maidens, and
then changing the eoppers for a silver
shilling. For this coin the applicant
receives the coveted sacrament shil-
ling, which. on being taken home, is
hung round the ailing ones neck, and
is popularity supposed to effect a rapid
and complete cure Of the complaint,
no matter what it may be.

Where the Toys Are Made.

In Germany whole villages are de-

toys, and their busiest time is just
about midsummer. BY the end of Au-
gust the receiving depots are crammed
with Christmas clowns and Christmas
mechanical puppets, Christmas drums
and wooden horses-children' Christ
mas presents, in fact, of all sorts and
kinds. And the travellers start out
east, west. north and south with their
Christmas samples about the time the
corn is ready for the sickles Of the
reapers. In Holland, too, where rore
than one town is devoted, more -

Even at school during these particular

The search lasted all night and day

work completed with no sign of the

APPEAL TO THE US.
Women Of Nicaragua Think ze-
Iaya Should Be Punished.
JUSTICE is DEMANDED.
United States Is Importuned Not to
Allow ZeIaya to Escape, but to See
That He Receives Punishment for
His Crimes.-JaiIs Crowded.

Managua, Nicaragua, via Corinto.-
Some of the most prominent women
in Managua have sent a petition to
Henry Caldera, the acting consul OF
the United States. Their names are
signed TO the petition, which sets
forth the tortures to which Zelaya's
prisoners have been subjected, and
pitifully requests the Intervention Of
the American government.
"Numberless prisoners" says the
petition, have been tortured in their
cells; their families have been i'm
poverished; liberty has been crushed,
and patriots have been killed in their
efforts to end crime, extortion and
tyranny, and to prevent the Gssassina-
tion of Groce and Cannon.
Bring MaIefactor to Justice.
I'VE implore you to bring the male
factor to Justice. that his many
crimes nay receive the punishment
they deserve. and that he be not per
mitted to escape"
For weeks, 1t is said, the associates
and adherents of Zelaya have been
conducting a reign Of terror. Their
chief victims have been the best peo-
pie Of the country Property has been
confscated, fathers and sons impris-
oned, wives and daughters forced to
submit to unspeakable outrages, drag.
ged off to jail, or cruelty injured. 81
appalling were the conditions that a
large number Of women met and hnal
ly decided to submit their plea to the
representative of the government,
whose warships are close at hand
They seek not only their own protec-
tion, but the safety Of those who in
the last few days have had courage
enough to rise in public places and
denounce Zelaya and his administra-
ton.
The agitation became so strong
against the holding of hundreds, per-
haps thousands, in prison, that the
officials dee ed it advisable to take
steps to release at least some of those
against whom crimes had only been
alleged.

to attract the admiration and love of
the people.
Leopold II, king of the Belgians,
son of King Leopold |, upon whose
death, which occurred December 10,
1866, he succeeded to the throne, was
born at Brussels, April 9, 1887. His
father was the former prince Of SAKE
Coburg-Gotha and his mother Princess
Louise, dau Inter Of King Louis Phil
lippe of France. On August %, 1853,
ne married the Archduchess Marie
Henrietta, daughter of ArchduEe Jo-
seph of Austria. She died September
19, 1902. There were three daughters
born Of this union-Louise, Stephanie
and Clementine. The two elder prin-
cesses have been estranged from their
father, but Clementine remained in his
affections.
King Leopold was looked upon as
one of the shrewdest and ablest men
of the time. He was essentially a
man of business. cold, reticent and
calculating, but was not greatly liked
by his fellow sovereigns.
Contest Over Throne Possible.
Brussels-A contest over the sue
cession to the throne of Belgium is
possible. The vatican is reported to
have confirmed the marriage a year
ago Of King Leopold and Baroness
Vaughan. Two sons are said to have
been born from this union and both
survive The elder Is Lucian, years
old. 1t is reported that he will claim
the throne. Prince Albert, the heir
presumptive, is nephew of Leo.

All Brussels mourns. Flags ON pub
lie buildings are at half-mast and prt
vate houses are draped with crepe.
The newspapers in special editions
devote several pages to the life OF
King Leopold, whose private life is
criticised generally, while his intel
lectual greatness is extolled. The
Etoile Beige and the Petit Bleu praise
the work Of Leopold for both Belgium
and the Congo
King Leopold leaves to his daugh-
ters, it is said, personal property of
about s3,O0O,0O0, which he inherited
from his father. His will is expected
to reveal large legacies for public in
