brother to visit the west. l feel sure
they would return and revolutionize
the place. especially would those
large mills be overhauled. A visit to
Pendleton's mills with up-to-dat
machinery would open their eyes. In

WOMEN PRETENDER TO
THRONE OF PORTUGAL

Observation-Disclosures mention was
made during the progress of the Por-
tuguese revolution to the possible re-
tender to the throne of Portugal, and
to the bearing this might have on the
fortunes of his daughter-in-law, who
was Miss Anita Stewart, but the true
story has not been told.
1t constitutes the only whimsical
feature OF the overthrow of King
Manuels rickety throne, save perhaps
that other of the revolutionary lead
ers setting off the dethroned mon
arch and family on the royal yacht
and then taking back the vessel on
the grounds that 1t was republican
property, and was only lent to the
king for the purpose Of getting rid of
him
It was while this instance Of Cas-
tilian gift-making was going on that
Don Miguel struggled to the lime
light. He made a stupendous fuss in
London and Jenna for a day or two,
and il all resulted in calling on the
Braganzas for a family council on
the Austrian frontier.
In this particular case, It was de-
cided that in view of the pretender's
remuneration of rights, Anita Stewards
husband could easily be put on the
vacant throne Of Portugal IL a mil
lion dollars were placed in the hands
of the Braganza family as sinews OF
war. The entire family voted with
answering loyalty and determination
that the princess mother, Mrs. James
Henry Smith. would surely under the
circumstances give this million dol
lars and promptly telegraphed her OF
her golden opportunity.
