AMERICAN PEERAGE GROWING
List Of Women From This Country
Who Have Married Titled For
elgners Is Long.

As indicating the extent of inter-
national marriages, as far back as
1890 a book was published called
"Titled Americana List Of
American Ladies Who Have Married
Foreigners of Rank" says Cleveland
Moffett in Success Magazine. The
list was at that time over 200 pages
long and it has grown amazingly
since then. Let anyone run over in
his mind the names of our conspicu-
uous multimillionaire families-the
Astors, Vanderbilts, Goulds, Letters,
Huntingtons, Singers, Drexels, etc.
and he will find that they all have
intermarried with titled foreigners.
Year after year such unions have in
creased until today there are Ameri-
can countesses, duchesses, princesses,
in every capital and corner of Eu-
rope.

VANGUARD OF FLIES.

Perhaps you have noticed that
few large blue bottle flies have been
buzzing against the window pane
and possible from some unknown
place a housefly has come out on a
tour of inspection. These are the
avant-hourtiers of the horde that
will soon make its appearance with
disease-laden feet. They will be at
tracted to the house by the smell Of
food and if the entrances are NOT
well guarded they will get in and
carry with them some deadly infec-
ton. The sanitary garbage can, the
door and window screens, the "swat-
ter" and the fly poison are the only
means of protection. 1t will be pru'
dent TO provide these means of de
tense before the flies arriye.-South

CHARM OF YOUNG EMPRESS.

was SO lost in admiration Of this
wonderful Empress Eugene that in
dancing in the royal quadrille with
the Russian consul l forgot to make
the usual steps. Everything was
symmetrically perfect in her; the
slender, graceful figure with the
beautifully modelled shoulders, which
were enhanced by the white dress
she wore, profusely embroidered with
pearls and silver. Her exquisite
shape attracted me perhaps even
more than did the classically beau
tiful head, with the noble regular
features and the auburn hair, upon
which sparkled royal diadem. Her
charming smile bewitched me as
much as did the few friendly words
she addressed to me in her melodi-
GUS voice.-From Princess Won Ra-
cowitza's Autobiography.

TRULY IN HARD LUCK.

A young man, the heir to consid-
cradle wealth, who is imprisoned on
a little bit of territory in Brunswick,
thinks Dame Fortune has been I'M
kind to him. He can never leave
his estate unless he first sacrifices
his patrimony. His name is Eben-
stein and he inherits his property
from a grandfather who, as Hanove-
rian, fought against the Prussians in
1866. Old Ebenstein never forgave
the Prussians and in his will tied up
his property with the condition that
the tenant-for-life should never SCI
foot on Prussian soil. But as Prus-
STA surrounds Brunswick Ebenstein
can never get out Of it without vic.
lating the will and letting his money

STUNNING HONORARY TITLES
Baron steuben Feared Doctors De-
rree-sharp Retort to an Hitter
ate but Wealthy Man.

Some men have Stunned honorary
titles almost as earnestly as others
have coveted them. After Lafayette
had been made doctor of laws by
New Jersey college shortly before
the close Of tue revolutionary war,
Baron Steuben was in great fear lest
he should meet similar mishap.
Having to pass through college
town where the marquis had been
thus distinguished, the old warrior,
SO the story runs, halted his men
and thus addressed them: "You
shall have to spur the horses well
and ride through this place like the
devil, for, if they catch you they will
make doctors Of you" There is an
other story that, only few years
ago, when college degrees were scat
tered somewhat lavishly, an illiterate
old man Of great wealth, having
been honored with degree by col
lege which he had laid under obli-
CATION, made a wager that he could
obtain similar honor for his serv-
ant. He won the wager, and, en-
couraged by his success, made anoth-
er that he could obtain a degree for
his horse. This time, however, he
lost. The college authorities got
wind of his game and in answer to
his request for doctorate for So
and-So the president wrote a cour-
teous note saying that, though the
trustees we're very anxious to oblige
so good "a friend of the college, they
had found on examination of the
records that, though they had once
conferred degree upon jackass,
there was no precedent for confer
ring one upon horse.

Made Tracks to Hole In Ice, Doubled
Back and Watched Pursuing
Dog Drown.

A Virginian who is fond Of study
ing wild animals in their natural
surroundings once had an opportu-
nifty Of seeing himself an example
Of the cunning for which the fox
has become proverbial.
KS the amateur naturalist was
standing near the bank of a river
one winter day he saw fox run
out upon the ice and make straight
for hole. At the edge Of the open
ing he stopped, turned, followed his
tracks back to the bank, ran down
the stream and paused to await de-
velopments.
In little while dog came tear
ing out Of the woods with his nose
close to the ice and snow. He ran
along the ice with his head down,
following the scent until he reached
the opening. 1t was then too late
to check his speed; he plunged into
the water and was lost under the ice.
The fox meanwhile had waited in
plain sight to watch the effect of his
little trick. After the dog came into
view the fox remained perfectly mo-
tionless until he saw his old enemy
disappear. Then with look on his
face which seemed to combine a
good-natured grin with a mild con-
tempt, he went nonchalantly off
about his business.

remedy brought me from the brink

badly disordered and doctors dag

me medicine in order to dissolve the
stones, but gradually grew worse
until death seemed to be a matter
of but few weeks. My husband
finally procured Doan's Kidney Pills

Immediately after the explosion on
Saturday the five men rushed to cross
entry No. 10, where they quickly
threw up a brattice that kept out the
black damp that killed many of then
fellow workmen. They took their
lunch pals with them and they sub
sisted for three days and two nights
on what they expected to make their
Saturday noon meal.
Twenty-eight bodies have been re-
moved and but twenty cross entries
have been explored. The rescuers are
encountering great obstacles in pene-
trating the cross sections and it is
feared that even should more be alive
in the far recesses of the workings it
will be impossible TO reach them be-
fore they starve.
Another rescue car has arrived
from Pittsburgh, so there are plenty
of helmet men on the scene. Finding
Of the five men revived an abandoned
hope in the breasts of these workmen,
and now thy are pushing ahead with
all possible speed hoping to find more
men alive.
Governor Hooper of Tennessee and
Mayor Watts Of Coal Creek sent out
appeals for funds for relatives of vic
TINS. The coal company is supplying
the immediate needs of the stricken
families, but later money will be
needed to care for the widows and
orphans
