ity in his reeking island jungles. He
has tendency to do unexpected
things, as when he wanted to make
Alice Roosevelt sultana of Sulu.
The reason given for Kiram's
threatened visit out into the world is
his desire to superintend personally
the sale of his several casks of pearls
which his divers have brought up from
the blue depths of the Celebes sea,
They. are valued at $250,O0O.
The sultan Of Sulu is young man,
but he gives the impression of know
Ing what he is about and just what
he wants. His head is rather large
and well-shaped. His skin is, the color
of old copper that has been polished.
His eyes are we'll apart, but he has a
trick of dropping the lids that makes
him look sleepy and Indifferent. He
has good, firm jaw and chin, with a
medium-sized straight nose.
To keep him out of mischief, Hiram
has been permitted to continue be-
lieving himself immensely powerful.
When America took over the Philip
pines, there was an agreement with
the ruler of the Sulus. It was modelled
on the old Spanish treaty and guaran-
teed the Moros all the usual rites and
religious freedom. It provided that
the American flag be flown over the
islands,; that America might occupy
any place it chose for military pur-
poses; that America would continue
the Sultan's pay for ruling his peo-
pie.

Mexico City.-The career Of Sir
Porfrio Diaz, who has just been re-

veritable romance of adventure and
thrilling escapes from death.
Perhaps his narrowest escape from
his enemies, however, was in 1875,
after he had led futile instruction

Diaz was running for the presidency

finally took the field with his sup

was defeated, driven from Mexico,
and took refuge in New Orleans. He
then communicated with his friends,
and decided to return and continue
the fight.
With this end in view he took pass

under the name of "Dr. de la Doza."
Unfortunately, when the vessel

BR|TA|N'S FIRST BOY
Joins Ship and Takes Place as
"Cadet Edward" !:
Eldest Son of King George, Aged Six,
teen Years, Is Highly Popular
Much Like Other Eng
Iish Lads. 4

London.-Prince Edward of Wales,
who has been "the first boy of Eng
and for 16 years, has gone to john
his ship at Dartmouth and take his
place as Cadet Edward of Wales;
During the funeral ceremonies of his
grandfather, King Edward, he was a
prominent figure not only because he
Is heir to the throne but because he is!
highly popular.
A typical Anglo-Saxon lad is Princes
Edward, now called the duke of Corn
wall, and soon to be formally made
the prince Of Wales. He is fair haired,
blue eyed and sturdy of limb; the pic
ture of health, strength and good tenn
per.
From babyhood he has been popu-
lar. His doings and sayings have
been chron1cled, and half the mothers
of England put their sons into white
sailor suits like those chosen by the
princess Of Wales for her son. Yet
admiration does not seem to have
spoiled him at all. He is still a frank,
simple English boy with bright
smile, pleasant manner and an in
fictitious laugh.
Not only is Prince Eddie public
favorite but he is hero in his own
family. His three small brothers and
one sister look forward to his holidays
as festive occasions. His father and
mother, King George and Queen Mary,
although they are rather strict with
their children as a rule, often relax
discipline for their oldest son and are
as proud of him as any middle class
parents of their first-born.
Even at school Prince Edward is
popular, and one has to be more than
a prince to be favorite at an Eng
fish school. One has to be an all
round expert at games and sports, a
generous, open-handed good fellow
with plenty of courage and love of
fair play.
Prince Edward has always been a
sportsman. He could ride his pony
when he was five and on his seventh

birthday King Edward gave him a.
bicycle. Swimming lessons at the
Bath club came next, and little later
cricket, football and boxing, and now
he is one of the first class cross-coun-
try runners of England.
Before he was ten he had handed
over his ordinary nursery toys to his
younger brothers and was giving all
the time he could spare from lessons
and exercises to feet of model bat
tleships which had been given him by
his father. It was the time of the
Russian-Japanese war, and the young
prince with model guns, forts and
maps Of the scene of the campaign
was following each move and fighting
mimic battles with his fleet. Later
King George, anxious to encourage his
sons love Of the sea, gave him a
large model brig. This is kept at Vir-
ginia water in charge of an old sailor.
A story is told Of his early days at
Osborne which seems to prove that
the prince is not without commercial
instincts. He had written home to his
mother for extra pocket money, which
she refused to send, and so he wrote
a long letter to his grandmother beg
ging her to help him out. Queen Alex
andra wrote long letter reproving
him for extravaganza. -.
To her surprise Prince Edward, who
hates letter writing like a normal
boy, Immediately answered l>er letter
and asked many questions. She an
swered them, only to receive another
letter from her grandson. At last the
truth came out that the prince was
selling the queens autograph letters
to his schoolmates for money to spend
at the tuckshop.
In his lessons Prince Edward does
not shine. If he were an ordinary lad
he would be called backward, except
in the few branches of study which he
likes.
Love Of animals is trait of all the
Wales children, as they were known
till very recently.

men thought they recognized Dia2
and shouted his name But luckily
woman who was a friend of the gen.
erals saw the situation and, selling
sheet from the stateroom, rushed
down the gangway and threw the
sheet over his head, so that he passed
through the crowd and so reached his
stateroom.
Capture seemed almost certain. The
soldiers who had seen Diaz come
aboard had reported to the colonel,
who prompted looked into the matter
and found that the supposed Diaz had
come aboard as "Dr. de la Boza." He
at once went to the captain and de-
manded the surrender of Diaz. The
colonel could not speak English, and
the captain could not speak Spanish,
so Mr.. Coney, the purser, was sent
for. ..f .....
Now, Mr.. Coney, who, for the i'm
portant part he played in this exciting
episode, was afterward rewarded BY
the grateful Diaz with the post of con-
sui general of Mexico at San Fran
cisco, had seen Diaz' in the stateroom,
and, in response to Masonic signal
of distress which Diaz made, had de-
cided to aid the fugitive to his utmost
-Coney himself being a Mason.
Therefore, when, having translated
the colonels demand to the captain,
the latter said he could not deliver
up the supposed Diaz, but if the
colonel liked he could place sentries
at the door so that Diaz could not es-
cape.
Then as the sentry went Keeling to
leevard, Coney suddenly opened the
door Of the stateroom, and }Diaz
walked swiftly forward and safely
reached Coney's storeroom. Here he
was at once put in a clothes press.
Each night Coney took Dfaz out of
his wardrobe in order that he might
exercise his cramped limbs, putting
him In his own bed and locking him
up in the wardrobe again early in the
morning. Thus did Diaz elude the
suspicious colonel and he was still in
the clothes press when the vessel
reached Vera Cruz. Here Coney COM
municated with General Enriquez, and
Diaz, with his face besmeared with
coal dust and disguised as a laborer,
was Struggled ashore.
Diaz was obliged to skulk through
the forests from Vera Cruz until he
had rallied his forces, which he did
with such success that the next bat
tie placed him in the Mexican white
house. .
