THE BRITISH KING
 FAR FROM WELL
EDWARDS CONDITION IS EciTING
 ALARM.
It Is Unofficially Stated That He Is
 Suffering from Brieht's Disease.

London. Feb 20.-King Edward is a much more i'll man than the public realizes. His condition gives alarm to the Kings family and intimates.
 The very severe strain of the general elections. the mighty interests involv- ed. the indecisive results of the cleo ton. and the necessity of deciding whether or not he will agree to the notifications in the powers of the
 House of Lords which the government will demand. or precipitate another general election. have greatly aggra- vated his Majesty's symptoms and it is an open secret now that he is a very sick man.
 While no official information as to what is the matter with the King can be obtained there are indica- ,tions that he is suffering from Bright's disease.
 He is lethargic, inclined to drop off to sleep at odd moments. and under almost any circumstances, and every effort is made to have him take more out of door exercise
 Everybody about the King has re- ceived the hint to make him walk. The Marquis de Several. the Kings favorite companion. is himself an in- defatigable pedestrian. Croquet and golf have both been tried.
 It is hoped that his Majesty will be benefited by his regular spring holi- day, arrangements for which are now complete.
 His Majesty will leave this coun- try on the afternoon Of Monday March 21, and will cross to Calais in the royal yacht Victoria and Albert He will halt for one night in Paris, staying at his old apartments in the British embassy there. The British ambassador. Sir Francis Bertie. pro- poses to give dinner party in his Majesty's honor. and it is understood that the President will attend this, as well as the heads of the French gov ernment. On the following morning the King will leave for Biarritz, where his usual suite in the Hotel Regina are now in readiness for his reception. His stay there will be limited to he will have several meetings with the King of Spain
 Subsequently his Majesty will pro- ceed to Marseilles. where he will join the Queen and Princess Victoria for a short cruise on the royal yacht. It is also possible that the Empress Marie of Russia will be aboard the yacht. The vessel will then proceed as far as Genoa or Venice, where the King will leave it and return over land to this country. The Queen, however. will not return until some weeks later.

 AUSTRIA HUNGARY BORROWING TROUBLE

Vienna. Feb. 20.-When the Archduke Francis Ferdinand succeeds to the dual throne of Austria Hungary as he must before many years have passed if he lives, situation will be created which will give him the not least difficult problem of the many which he must solve.
 The heir to the throne is married 10 the Duchess von Holenberg. beautiful Czech woman. and is devotedly in love with her Under the Aus trian law the marriage is nor ganatic. the wife cannot ascend the imperial throne with her husband, and their children are barred from the succession.
 It is true that Austrian court etiquette has been strained to the point of semi-recognition, that is she has been given a place in the royal family. though not the place due the wife of the heir apparent of the throne. This concession is due to the friendship of the aged emperor. and was in fluenced by the strong liking for the duchess held by the German kaiser.
 This is the situation so far as Austria is concerned. In Hungary it is different. Not only is the marriage recognized as legal and binding the right of the duchess to be crowned queen of Hungary and of her children to ascend the throne, but so popular is she with the Czech and Magyar subjects of the emperor that should she be denied these rights it would be likely to intensity the anti German feeling already threat ening the existence of the dual kingdom.

. THE czARiNA's ILLNESS.
It is Reported That She is Mentally
 Affected.

St. Petersburg. Feb. 20.-While it is no longer attempted to conceal the fact that the cZarna is very sick woman it is extremely difficult to get any accurate information as to just what is the matter with her. That it is n general physical breakdown is certain and that there has also been almost a complete mental breakdown is probable. In some quarters it is said her majesty has so far failed mentally that she recognizes no one not even her immediate family. Her physicians have recommended q long sea voyage as likely to be of some benefit for her and that the cZar will shortly take her and their children on a cruise in the Imperial yacht. per haps as far as the Mediterranean.

NOT BEING SLAVES"
Chinese Military Officers Do Not
 Want to So Call Themselves.

Pelcin, Feb. 20.-The army and ad- visory council has petitioned the throne to permit the discontinuance of the term slave" which etiquette has hitherto compelled military of ficials to employ in speaking of them selves in memorials to the emperor. This rule has been one of the signs of the inferior position of the military in China, but as the government has been striving to remove such ob- noxious distinctions, and to establish equality between civil and military dignitaries. it is highly probable that the request will be granted

ORCHARD SPRAYING.


Outfits Will be Exhibited ON Better
Farming Special.
Probably NO single orchard operation
serves better than spraying to separate
the fruit growing Of the present from
that Of the past. Tho great increase OF
injurious insects and diseases Is forcing
the fruit grower Of the present time to
protect his plants II he would save their
crops. Many orchardists have preferred
10 neglect this important orchard pro-
lection and take what sound fruit the
pests would leave them, but each year
this unipjured portion has been q smaller
and smaller part OF the entire crop. AT
last the fruit growers as q class are
aroused. They now realize that spraying
has become an absolute necessity. Prob
ably more orchard sprayers have been
purchased by Maine farmers this year
than for the past half dozen years.
Those who want to spray wish to know
what kind Of sprayer is best suited to
their needs. There are many different
kinds and several distinct types on the
market. The spraying car Of the modern
farming special, which Is to be conducted
by the Maine Central railroad, under the
auspices Of the University OF Maine, June
to Is, will enable the fruit grower TO
answer the question for himself.
1t will show one Of the best outfits on
the market Of each Of the different types,
viz: . barrel outfit, gas power outfit,
sprocket-geared outfit, and gasolene en-
CINE outfit. Each OF these will be
mounted 30 that 1t can be put into opera
ton and actual demonstrations given.
The visitor will have opportunity to see
exactly how each different type is con-
structed and works, and chance to have
questions regarding the relative merits for
particular purposes answered.
In addition TO the orchard spraying out
fits, the spray car will have two standard
potato sprayen. Incidentally the visitors
will be shown how TO spray, IS well as in
formed when and what to apply.
This car should prove OF great value to
every fruit grower in the State who wishes
to identify himself with the new move
ment for better fruit and more profitable
orchards.
