book lie Mort du Roi' the Neueste
Nachrichten dwells upon the account
of the last seven minutes of Louis
XVI. as described in the book. These
were between l0:l5. when the king ar
rived at the foot of the guillotine, and
i0:22. when a shot fired at the end Of
the Champs Elysees. no one knows by
whom. gave notice that the head had
fallen" The review calls attention to
the statement by the author that the
kings hands had been pinioned be-
hind him by the executioner while
Louis was putting on the coat which
he was to wear at the end and that
when he reached the platform of the
instrument of death he rushed unas-
sisted to the upright fartnest from the
stairway. ''slapping the face of one Of
the assistant executioners who tried to
stop him" With hands fastened at his
back. the hereviewer asks. How did the
doomed monarch manage to perform
the operations"

Etiquette by Precedent.

For example of how men may live
and Nact according to precedent there
can be no better reference than to the
lord chamberlaln's Office in London.
There in quiet rooms day after day
men learned in state etiquette. court
dress and royal functions reach down
heavy volumes to see what was done
on such and such an occasion. Beau
tiful pictures showing with minute ex.
actness the details of the court cos
tune under various circumstances are
ready TO their bands. Is the shah Of
Persia coming. Is the kaiser soon to
arrive? Is the king going to receive
the monarch of Siam! Is one of the
royal princesses to be married? When
any OF these events happens the off,
cials at the lord chamberlain's Office
know exactly what TO do. And II
some point should crop up which has
not been raised for century or NOR

Eccentrioities In Palaces,

The Russian Empress Anne built
great palace Of ice and on occasions
when the fancy seized her punished
several of her dainty courtiers by COM
pelling them to pass the night in this
great chamber of state. where they
were almost frozen to death.
The Car Paul constructed room
formed entirely of huge mirrors where
he spent hours walking to and fro In
full uniform-a singular taste for the
ugliest man IN Russia.
One Of the native princes Of Java
cooled his palace by making ssream
fall 10 cascade over the gateway.
and the Indian despot Tippo Sahib
placed beside his dinner table life
size figure of tiger devouring an
English officer. the roar Of the beast
and the shrieks of the victim being
initiated by hidden machinery.

piano. and In the afternoon the orches-
ira of the theater played 1t In the

marched out Of Marseilles to Paris.
where it was appropriated BY, the cap
ital and called the "Hymne des Marsel-
lais." But Joseph Rouget. the author.
