Former Crown Princess of saxony
Wants to Spend Rest of Her
Days With Aged Mother.

Lindau, Bavaria.-King Frederick
Augustus of Saxony has just applied
for permission for his former wife
who eloped with his sons tutor some
ten years ago while she was crown
princess-to spend the remainder of
her days in penitence with her moth
er, the dowager grand duchess of Tus-
cany.
After the elopement the crown
princess was discarded by her hus-
band and forced to assume the title
of countess of Montignoso. Then a
Saxon court decreed divorce, which
the pope had refused to grant. Sub
sequently the countess married an
Italian pianist named ToseIli, from
whom she soon became estranged and
whom she now seeks to divorce.
Having nowhere else to go, she
wishes to live with her aged mother,
whose home is in this place. AS it
is BaVarfan town, Signora ToseIIi
could only live here by permission of
the regent, and that would only be
granted on the application of the king
of Saxony.
1t does not appear what influence
was brought to bear on King Fred
erick Augustus, but it is likely that
it did not require much persuasion to
induce him to apply for this favor
to the woman who is the mother of
his six children, and in the eyes of
the church Of Rome is still his wife.

SANDS WHICH "SING."

The attention of the public has re-
Gently been directed to those curious
freaks of nature. singing sands"
says the Engineer. When a small
quantity of this sand is clapped be-
tween the hands it is said to give
forth sound so shrill as actually to
resemble a boot Put into a bag and
violently shaken, the sand emits a
noise strangely like the bark of a
dog. The most noticeable of these
sands are those of the Hawaiian
island of Kauai. Similar sands also
occur in the Colorado desert, where
also are to be found those curious
moving sands that continually travel
thither and thither over the vast plans
of clay. Their movements are induced
by the winds, and when a strong
breeze is blowing the particles of
which they are composed give out an
audible humming or singing. Under
the microscope these sands show an
almost perfectly spherical form, so
that they roll on each other at the
slightest impulse, a circumstance that
also accou nts for the rapidity with
which the sands travel over the des.

Dubuque. He is a small black goat
and comes from Little Corn island, off
the coast of Nicaragua. He was pick
ed up last summer when the Dubuque
was patrolling the Nicaraguan coast
during the last revolution Bill weighs
less than 20 pounds. He knows every
bugle call on the ship. Two weeks
ago he hurt leg in jumping. The
men took him to the surgeon when
the sick call blew. Now he goes at
the regular time of his own accord.
The Dubuque is the first regularly
manned vessel Of war to pass on
through the Canadian docks since the
war of 1912. Only after three months
Of correspondence with the Canadian
government was the ship allowed to
pass, and then only after the guns had
been unmounted. The ship made the
trip from Porthmouth, N. H, in 16
days. 1t is differed by Capt. K G.
