MAD KING O7'TO'S LIFE

Some remarkable details relating to the mad
King Otto of Bavaria published from a dip
lomatic source by the Giorrae dItalia the London
Chronicle says. Though shut up for forty years
in castles now at the Castle Furstenried and
though sixtytwo years of age Otto is still fine
handsome figure. with magnificent beard and
flowing gray locks
The stories about his periodical fits of fury are
quite untrue. His court is presided over by Mar
shall Baron Redwir and consists of few trusty
gentry belonging TO the most ancient families Of
the Bayarian aristocracy.
King Otto suffers terribly from insomnia and oft
sits up in bed half the night staring toward the
door, as II expecting somebody to enter. He how
ever, rises punctually every morning at and mute
ly allows himself to be dressed by his valet. He
has q holy horror Of soap and water, and of hav-
Ing his hair and nails cut SO that servants have
to await patiently favors bic day for these opera
tons, when the poor patient is in state of COM
pete apathy. King Otto smokes incredible guam
titles Of cigarettes and is always putting away
when he is absorbed in his favorte pastime Of
studying the operate music of his pet composer,
Verdi Often he causes the castle to resound all
day long with the melodies Of "Rigoletto."
The diplomat relates that the first symptom of
brain decay In the young prince till then
BRIGHT forceful and courageous, manifested
during the FrancoGerman war Just before the
seige of Paris Kaiser William summoned him to the
headquarters of the general staff and kept him

He began preaching everywhere the stern neces-
s1ty OF concluding peace with France at any price.

UNKIND JOLT FROM ADAM
A. It Eve Hadn't Sorrow Enough,
Her Partner Had to Add to
the Affliction.

Adam had just received his notice
Of ejectment
He stared at it a long time in
silence, while Eve. crouched in q
dusky corner, softly whimpered.
Presently the father of mankind
looked around
AS Eve caught his angry eye her
whimper changed to a gulping sob
WELL" he sternly said, you've GER
tainly put us in a fine mess with
your silly curiosity! And yet when I
refused to have anything to do with
your apple scheme you called me a
poor fool. Do you remember that
you called me a poor fool?"
"Ye-es," sobbed Eve.

about 121 years old, few men can b
found today to identity without look
ing at the names, the pictures and
the busts Of men high in official gov
eminent position or Of great fame in
their time in contemporary history.
In the senate chamber placed In
inches about the gallery walls are
busts OF the vice-presidents of the
United States. Only the guides OF the
Capitol who have their lessons letters
proof, can tell the names OF these
men without reference to the printed
lists or the printed inscriptions.
When the house cleaning days were
over only a season ago two pictures
were replaced on the walls of the
corridor OF the senate. One of them
was picture of Patrick Henry and
the other was that of Thomas JEFF
ferson. For weeks the fact that JET
ferson's picture has been labeled
Patrick Henry and Patrick Henry's
had been labeled Thomas Jefferson
went undetected. Finally a visitor
noticed the error, called attention to
it and had the change made.
Perhaps the most striking picture
in the senate corridors is that which
shows Commodore Perry standing in
the row boat to which he went from
his sinking flag ship Lawrence to the
ship Niagara at the battle Of Lake
Erie. Perry is pictured erect in the
boat while small boy evidently 4
"midship-mite," also standing trying
to pull the Commodore down to a
seat so that he will be less exposed
to the furious rain CT the shot of the
enemy. The boy who is trying to in
duce the commodore to take the nee
essary precaution to save his life was
a nephew of the great sailor, and it
was he who later opened the ports
of Japan to the commerce OF the
world. So it is that in the painting
are the portraits of two Perrys, both
of whom are famous in the naval an
nails of the United States.
