One even ing an instructor, passing one of the small sitting rooms, was mortified at beholding a young man and young woman occupying the same chair.
 Sir" he demanded of the man stud dent, what is the meaning Of this outrageous behavior? Do you not know the rules of the college?"

Knew the Calendar.

They were little girls, so small that the teacher was telling them about di- visions of time, and receiving all sorts of answers to her simple questions. The little girl who lived in board ing house was a year older than any of the others.
 "We have learned that years are di- vided into months, months into weeks. and weeks into days" said the teach CT. Now can any one tell me how the days are divided?"
 The little girl who lived in board ing house raised her hand, and was asked to speak.
 "Monday's, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays, beef," she said. glibly; Friday, fish; Saturday, corned beef and beans; and Sunday, chicken. ."- Youths Companion.

THRONE FOR AMERICAN GIRL
Servian King Said to Have Sent En. voy to United States to Find
 Heiress.

Washington.-Coun Pablow Mysky King Peter of Servia. has been in this country for several weeks on a mis- sion involving the probable marriage of the Servian princes to American girls. The count denied that Prince George and his brother, Prince Alexander, are fortune hunters, although he admitted that they would not let comfortable fortunes stand in the way of matri- monial alliances.
 A rich Chicago bride for future queen of Servia would be just about what King Peter would like.
 Both sons of King Peter are pre- pairing to travel early in the new year, and the itinerary includes a two months stay in the United States, unless the agents report makes it in advisable. One of them will succeed to the throne.
 It is reported that King Peter com missioned Count Treskaya to come to this country and report what oppor- tunity his two sons might have toward making an alliance with American girls.
 Servia does not maintain a dplo- matic representative in Washington, and this may have made the counts business difficult to transact He is well supplied with funds by the house of Morgan, Harjes & Co.,, the Paris branch of J. P Morgan & Go.
 A report that the Servian princes want to marry American girls reached Washington last spring. Czar Nicb- olas, Emperor Francis Joseph and King George of Greece tried to plan an alliance for the sons of King Peter, but none of these would consider an

Enterprising Opium SmuggIers.

Of opium smuggling in China a Yunnan correspondent writes: The other day some men passed through several towns on the way to the cap ital with three collins. In the first was a corpse; the other two were packed with opium. Being suspected at Yunnanfu. the first coffin was opened but the carriers made as much noise as they could for having their coffin burst and the second and third collins were not examined. Quite common is it for men to travel in small crowds, smuggling opium from the province of Kweichau. They travel by night only, by lantern light over the mountains and in the day hide from any possible official searchers." !"
