between the neck and shoulder. While
was boxing heard the crack OF two
Snider rifles and upon turning around l
found that two Portuguese soldiers had
both fired Their bullets did not strike
the crocodile. but passed over Il and
raised the sand some distance beyond.
However. the crocodile seemed TO revive
and was quickly In the water before
could reload and fire again.
This was by far the largest crocodile

Africa, and il seemed half as long again

HOW KINGS TRAVELLED.
0stentatiOn of the Emperor Leopold
and Simplicity of Frederick.

From the Westminster Gazette.
The quiet and unostentatious manner IN
which half the monarchs Of Europe, fol-
lowing the example OF their holiday-mak-
ing subjects. are travelling about just now
recalls the upheaval which accompanied a
rulers movements in the olden times
When. for instance. the Emperor Leo

The second King Of Prussia, on the
other hand, objected 10 any form OF dis
play. partly on account Of the expense
and party because he found that he tray
eled twice as fast when he was only ac-
companied by indispensable servants.
Some curious old documents have been
preserved in which the Official who ar
ranged for the Kings comfort on his
travels explains TO the provincial digni-
taries what they are TO put Or his ma
jesty's table and how they had better
house him.

but also some brandy and light beer. IL
possible his majesty always takes his
midday meal In a barn, a tent, or gar
den house, where there is plenty of air
and likewise his majesty prefers 10 sleep
in barn or garden house because he
does not like warm rooms. nor can he
walk up steep steps without discomfort"
This frugal Kings greater son, Fred

simple tastes, and always preferred when
