-I am locking for some means verifying a statement that is printed at the bottom of the bill of fare in c colored peoples restaurant that ! wis It once a month" a gas collector said "In red-letter footnote the proprie tor calls attention to the excellence of his own homemade ice cream; then be a5ds that all members of the race ought 10 eat ice cream because 1t was invented by a colored man named Jackson. So sure does he seem of his facts that he relates circumstances attending the evolution of ice cream from plain custard. The narrative sounds convincing. but colOred people are so ready to vaunt the real and reputed achievements of the race that the ice cream legend may require verification."

ENGLANO'S FUTURE
 KING KEPT CLOSE
 10 WORK ALWAYS
It Is a Case of Almost Constant Study for
 Royal Children
HE IS FOND OF SPORTS

LONDON, Jan l3:-There is no coddling in the royal family. Al : o'clock every morning the Prince of Wales begins his studies and. as the Sandringham clocks are always kept an half hour ahead of ordinary time, on the daylight-saying principal in- augurated by the late king. the young princes work really begins at halt past six.
 Studies till breakfast-time and stud ies afterward up till noon keep the futuIe King Of England hard at work. unless perhaps an ideal hunting morn ing tempts him out for a gallOp. when the time taken from studies has to be paid back later on.
 Enjoy Outdoor Life
 The royal children are all splendid riders. Princess Mary enjoys a gal lop more than any of them and, ac- companied by Prince George, is ire quently seen nJcing across the park in the highest spirits.
 In all weathers the young princes enjoy the outdoor life, sometimes re- turning home drenched to the skin and covered with mud, after a hot bath and change into dry clothes, they are hard at their studies again.
 Iirince Albert has inhersaed his fathers wonderful skill with the gun. and is the best shot Of the family. He spends much of his spare time among the birds.
 Prince Henry, whose health gave his parents some anxiety is now quite well and strong again. Everybody loves him. for he is a most charm ing and gentle little prince, full of consideration for others and always busy mixing other people happy
 Prince George is the smiling prince always full of fun and on the very best terms with life. He enjoys ey- cry minute Of the day. Left to him self his best friend is his bicycle, on which he can perform some truly remarkable tricks.
 Enjoy Perfect Health
 This open-air active and well or dered life has stimulating effect on the royal children. The Prince of Wales. just budding into m mood. is developing every day and is growing up into a very handsome young Eng lishman. He is thoughtful. serious and fully conscious of the great posi- ton he will one day be called upon to fill.
 It is understood that no arrange ments are to be made for his future studies until the return Of their Ma jesties from India, when it is possible that he may spend some time at Cam bridge and later on continue his stu dies at oxford.
 A commission in a cavalry regi- ment, possibly the Tenth Hussars, will follow, but before that the Prince Of Wales nay be given an establish ment and a household Of his own. 1r is said that Park Cottage, near Sandringham Church will become his country lodge and York House, St. James, his London residence

One Of the performers at Proctor's this week relates an incident that oc cured in a western town where he was playing an engagement. There was an act on the bill in which a po- liceman had to chase a thief across the stage without catching him. The cops part was so simple that it was always given 10 some employe of the house. There was prop man in that town to whom this little task was assigned and he felt like a real actor.

As the main disturbance noted Sat

ondary disturbance that produced
considerable cloudiness with snow
in this vicinity Sunday morning.
Consequently, very low minimum
temperatures were not reached. The
principal low center now covers the

panied by generally unsettled, mild
weather east of the Mississippi river
and by clearing skies and falling tenn
perature over the Mississippi and

Another high is over the middle

Frederick Warde, the veteran N

rarely acted play would create a GER

But, alas and alack! | found to
my sorrow that some of the alleged
scholars and students did not so mucn
as know that Shakespeare had ever
written a play called 'Timon of Ath-
ems. Why, one erudite journalist in

wares, persisted in referring to the
play as Timothy of Athens Anoth-
er newspaper scribe. meeting me in
a hotel lobby, slapped me on the
back and said effusively: Well, Mr.

1t is costly and unpromising
struggle that Prussia is waging to
convert the Polish provinces into Ger
man territory. 1t has cost the gov
ernment not less than $4,000 for ev-
cry German family brought into the
two provinces, and the GermaniZa-
| tion of the Polish population is max
ing no progress whatever, notwith-
standing the settlement of Germans
in the two provinces from other parts
of the country. This conclusion is
warranted by the annual report just
published of the settlement commits
sion. the public board having charge
of the work of buying Polish lands
and parceling il out and selling it to
Germans. From a total of 900
acres of land bought in 1905, the pur-
chases of the commission dropped last
year to only 22,076 acres, and of this
latter amount only 2.9f0 acres were
bought from Polish owners. All the
rest was bought from Germans. The
| total cost of the governments lana
purchases since the year 1886. when
| the commission began its work, has
been above $50, 1000, 900. During this
period $40 families, consisting of
l4l 200 persons, have been settled on
| the land parceled out by the commits
sion. More than one-fourth of these
| families, however, We're already NV
| ing in the two provinces. Maying an
| allowance for this fact, it appears
that the number of German families
brought in was only 14.72S, and this
number includes nearly 5000 fami-
lies of Germans from Russia. Many
people think that the success of the
commission has been very disappoint-
ing, considering the huge sum OF

A comparison might be drawn be-
tween Walter Brownies allegorical
drama, Everywoman," which Henry
w. Savage is exploiting with two
companies this season, and DR.. John
sons 'Rasselas." As will he remem-
bered, 'Rasselas" is an account of
the search of a man for happiness,
while "Everywoman" is the chronicle
OF woman in search of love. In
each case the author dealt with a
universal quest. "Rasselas" is a clas-
sic which has outlived the generation
of its author, and the story of "Ev-
erywoman" s pilgrimage, so power
fully illustrated in Walter Brownies S
drama, will last as long as the heart
of woman yearns for love.

Berlin, Apr. 22.-The emperor Wis
tied Cuxhaven before leaving for Cor
fu. and held conferences there with
high naval officers. and he has now
decided to establish a war harbor
there. AT present the only naval har-
Dor on the North sea is Wilhelmsha-
ven, which is not capacious enough
to accommodate more vessels than are
comprised in the first squadron. As
it has just been decided to transfer
the big new cruiser Won der Tam
and several others from the Baltic
to the North sea, 1t becomes neces-
sary to increase the harbor facilities
on that coast of Germany. The
change is dictated by the fact that
Britain has the larger part of its ma
val strength in the North sea, and
1t has come to be an axiom with
German naval men and laymen as
well that the German navy will finu
its chief use in that sea if il should
ever come into action.

A new method for discovering de-
posits of ores, coal and oil has been
found by Prof. Jakob Koenigsberger.
After making tests in many bore
holes with the most varied surround
ings, he found that the rate at which
the earth's crust grows warmer at
lower levels is far from uniform. He
gives the average rate at about Ga
feet for l degree Fahrenheit; but
near sea coast it requires as much
as 200 feet in some cases to get
degree higher temperature. 1t was
found, however, that over coal de-
posits the rate is only a to 80 feet.
Oil heats the earth still more rapidly,
causing a gain of ! degree for every
Is to 20 feet.
1t is believed that Prof. Koenigs-
berger's Investigations will prove of
great use in prospecting for mineral
and oil deposits, since it will be pos
sible TO determine, by taking the tenn
perature in a borehole several hun
dred feet deep. whether 1t is ap-
preaching valuable deposits; and it
will not be necessary to waste large
sums of money in boring very deep
holes without discovering anything.
