over the list Of appended names to appre-
ciate the fact. that the electors have no
easy task.-New York World.

INVASION OF AMERICANS
BY HERBERT TEMPLE.

Especial Cable to neutrality-suspicious.
London, March 19.=I have Just
witnessed the departure from London
of Sir Ernest Shackleton, who sails
tonight for New York on three
months lecturing tour through the
United States and Canada to which
he has been looking forward with
great pleasure.
"You may say" said he, just be-
fore the train started, "that both
Lady Shackleton and are delighted
at the prospects of seeing the states
thoroughly, especially at this time of
the year, but personally / am very
much disappointed because / have
been forced to give up my fsvorite
idea of exploring Alaska, which I
consider one of the most interesting
countries in the world. / have so
much work on hand, however, and
much more will accumulate during
my absence, that / am compelled to
put off my original plan until a
more favorable time"
Sir Ernest has absolutely refused to
express any opinion concerning the idea,
which is met with everywhere in Europe,
that Peary no more than Cook has
reached the north pole, and that his rec
ords ought to be turned over to the i'm
partial tribunal OF the University OF Co
penhagen for examination. The young
English explorer seems at least to have
perfect faith in Peary, faith which is
not shared by very many here.
There is a romantic little story behind
a legacy which has just been received by
g Nantwich shoemaker named George
Robinson.
Twelve years ago Mr.. Robinson, then a
iourneyman shoemaker, met outside Nant-
wich an invalid lady and nurse. Rob
inson waS carrying a bunch of roses ana
what lovely roses" He turned imme-
diately and asked would YOU like some,
madam" The lady said that she would
be very grateful, as she wanted some
flowers TO put on her mothers grave at
the local cemetery. Robinson handed
her the bunch, and the recipient inquired
his name and address.
The incident has just had a surprising
sequel Mr.. Bourne, lawyer of LAND
udno came over to Nantwich and in
formed Robinson that Miss Parramour Of
Craigydon, Llandudno, had died. and in
her VIII there was a legacy or 500 TO

King Edward Failing.
Rumor has it that the health of King
Edward is not all it ought to be. He has
grown very much stouter and at times
has been noticed to move with difficulty,
his complexion is a yell0wish gray and
though the English people are probably
more careful than any other In circuiat-
ing reports disparaging the good name
Of their sovereign. I have heard many

FREAKS KEEP HEALTHY
Two Little Girls at Brighton, Eng
land, Joined Together After
Manner of "Siamese Twins"

Especial Cable to Herald-Republican)
London, March l9.-Brighton's own pair
of ''Siamese twins" have Just celebrated
their second birthday. Their progress is
being followed with interest by the med
ical men Of that popular seashOre resort.
The inseparable bond that unites them ap-
pears to have no effect ON their health
and happiness. The doctor who ushered
them into the world reports that they are
quite up to the normal size for their
age" They are showing signs of consid-
cradle intelligence. and are always in good
health. Just like separate sisters, they
play and quarrel Each has her Teddy
bear. There is much more mobility than
ordinarily would be expected between
them, but, so far, their efforts to stand
have not been successful. They have a
wooden framework in which it is hoped,
later on, they will be able to balance
themselves; but it is feared walking will
always be a labor to them.

LONDON ART DEALERS
HAVE NO CONSCIENCE
Spurious Paintings Sold to Rich
Americans as Works of Old
Masters.
Especial Cable to Herald-Republican.)

Especial Cable 70 Herald-Republtcan.I
London, March 19.-Almost every day
produces fresh instances of the moral
laXity of the London art dealer. So long
as he can obtain profit he does not care
who loses.
The latest instance is provided by the
DTax art sale at Christies, which, after
several days, Only produced a 1.-THE Of the
money originally expended upon the pic
lures by Sir Erie Drax. Supposed Correg-
gios, Rembrandts, Caracas and Van
Dycks, which were bought by The dead
o2ronet at sums varying from Sl,OO TO
5000, have been bought back by the deal
ers for trifles like $50 $40 and $50, who
will doubtless resell them to some wealthy
American on the lookout for "Old Mas
ters." at ten times the prices. In the
publicity Of Christies auction room, the
mantle OF authenticity fell from the spu-
rious paintings leaving, in place of master
pieces OF fabulous value, only inferior
copies. These copies have not been bought
back by the dealers for amusement. With
big names as bats, they viii appear again
upon the market. and woe betide the col
lector who places faith in the dealers
assurances.
Another species Of art fraud is being
perpetrated unWittingly by some of the
best names on England's peerage roll.
When period Of financial embarrassment
some of his family portraits. So that
there shall be no telltale vacant spaces
on his walls he calls in the services of
some local artist who makes copies, which
will, in the dim light of the ancestral pal
aces, pass for the originals, which are dis
posed Of in the best market. Then, when
the peer decides upon an auction sale,
growing fashion IN England, the market
Is flooded with a batch of inferior copies
of the family portraits which fetch good
prices because Of their bona-fide setting.
These ''dud' generally find their way TO
America.

FROM TRANCE
British Girl, Sixteen Years of Age,
Lay as One Dead for a Period
Of Fourteen Days.

Especial Cable to Herald Republican,
London, March ia sixteen-year-old
girl named Elizabeth Roberts of Ash
Makerfield, near Wigan, has just
recovered from a trance which lasted for
fourteen days.
The girl had been I'll for six months,
and at the end Of February her life was
despaired of. DR.. Winstanley told the
parents that he thought the girl was
a victim of cataiepsy, and shortly after
wards the patient became unconscious.
Her pulse ceased to beat, and during
almost the whole of the following fort
night the mother remained at the bed
side OF her daughter waiting for the
slightest movement.
One day II happened that some OF the
girls friends were in the bedroom try
ing TO find the invalid's favorite hymn.
Suddenly the girl put out her hand and
motioned for the book She then opened
her eyes, but was unable to speak for
some time afterwards.
She has lost the use of her left arm
and left leg, and states that she could
hear persons talking in the room during
the trance.

TO Livadia in the early summer and re
main until the late autumn
1t Is understood that the lengthy sojourn
in the Quietude of the southern Crimea is

During the lengthy residence OF the
court at Livadia last year there was a
distinct Improvement in the tsaritsa's gem

majestys return to Tsarskoe Selo there
has been a serious relapse in her physical
and mental condition.
In addition TO the beneficial effect of

mos the tsaritsa is known to have a de-
cided preference for the serene restfui-
