Xmas Are Useful,

A king is a hand embroidered gentle
man trimmed with metals, faced with
whiskers and matched with a metal
yoof that would never keep or the
rain. Nominally he is the head OF
the nation; actually he is n figure
head, and that is Hguratively speaking
only, for he is generally too fat to
claim n figure and seldom has much
of head-except on the morning after
a celebration.
Once upon a time the king was the
big tuba of the band. Now he is mere
ly an oboe-until there is revolution,
and then he becomes real live hobo.
However. king has his place, al
though he is yearly finding 1t more
difficult to stay in 1t.
Kings are found to be very useful
In poker games, and by society ladies
who wish to be presented to some
body they can brag Of having met
when they get back home to their long
left loved ones.-Detroit Free Press

The Austrian state Coach.

The Emperor of Austria owns the
most beautiful state coach in exist
ence. Its proportions are perfect and
the finish of the mouldings and carv-
ings are exquisite. 1t was built In
1896, and is shaped with all the
curves which distinguish Louis Quat-
orze furniture, stfWight lines being
carefully avoided. The panels are
adorned with nymphs in the style OF
Rubens. Indeed, the custodian In
forms those privileged to view the
coach that they are the work OF
Rubens. If Peter the painter had not
died fifty-six years before the coach
was built his statement would be be-
lieved. 1t is a more comfortable con-
veyance too than the British state
coach, being hung upon well balanced
springs.-London Chronicle.

Birds Killed In Narration.

According to advices ON the Cau-
casus millions of singing birds which
every winter used to find a warm
retreat on the southern slopes OF the
forest clad mountains of the Cau-
casus were suddenly surprised by the
intense cold and severe snowstorms
while they were on their way from
the north. The sides of the mighty
mountains, the highest in Europe, and
the shores of the Black Sea were
strewn with small corpses Of sing
ing birds, especially bullfinches, gold
finches, robin redbreasts, fiycatchers
and other birds which in the summer
mostly visit these shores.-Pall Mall

lndianian,s Hungry EAGLE.

c. E. Summers had gray eagle
which was captured in steel trap
here. The bird measured seven feet
from the tip of one wing to the tip
of the other and its appetite made it
desirable for Mr.. Summers to dispose
of it at once. 1t ate one rooster, two
crows and about ten pounds of meat.
Attacks on lambs caused sheep
owners to set traps about their folds
with the result that the eagle was
caught by Henry Mannan.

Anderson. the former Wisconsiner. was,

distance and his tackling and defensive
play were terrific. Reilly scored Yale S

fourth was made by Strout, who took a
forward pass from Anderson and shot 20
