A ROYAL SNUB.
The Gar Handed 1t to Louis Napoleon
and Got 1t Back

The Gar Handed 1t to Louis Napoleon
and Got 1t Back.
1t has been urged by a French au
thor that Napoleon III. entered into
the Crimean war on the side of Great
Britain because he had been well re-
his sojourn in that country. But there
might have been another potent factor
independent of the emperor's pleasant
recollections of the English. and that
was the slight to which he was sub
jected by the czar of Russia, Nicho-
las l.
When Napoleon ascended the throne
as emperor he notified all the reigning
sovereigns of the fact, addressing them
as Monsieur mon frere." With the
exception Of the czar they replied
adopting the same formula. Nicholas.
however. began his reply. Mon grand
ami This is the style adopted by
sovereigns when addressing presidents
of republics. Napoleon fully under
stood the cars meaning.
At the New Years reception of the
diplomatic body he went up to Count
Kisslew. the Russian ambassador, and
said to him:
II have received letter from your
sovereign which flatters me greatly.
He writes to me. Mon grand ami
One chooses his friends. He cannot
choose his brothers."

WHITE RAlNBOWS.
Formed by Strong Light. a Fine Rain
and Low Sun.

10" Gun.
Though rainbowS are generally aSSo-
ciated with colors. there is such phe-
nomenon. very rare. IL Is true. as 8
white rainbow. The circumstances nee
essary for its formation are a fine rain
and Il strong sun. The phenomenon is
due TO the optic principle known as in
reference. II the drops OF water be
very small, the interference OF the rays
causes such a complete overlapping OF
the colors that the bow appears white.
That is to say. the various prismatic
colors, instead OF being thrown out
separately. as in the ordinary prism
are thrown one on the top of the other
and the light is thrown by the sun. rs
Il were, on sheet of rain. The fine
close rain produces the same effect rs
a woven texture. This result is still
more noticeable where a fog takes the
place OF the rain
The phenomenon Is not often noticed
because the conditions absolutely nee
essary to the formation OF white
rainbow are a strong light. close rain
and Il sun lying near the horizon
These three conditions are not often
present at the same time.-Westmin
stec Gazette.

Oriain Of Enaiish Royal Academy.

The yearly "show" OF works by liv
ing artists which is held at the Eng
lish Royal academy from the first

resolved that "once year, on day in
the second week in April, at place
that should be appointed by commit

ton, to be chosen annually, every

THE STREETS OF NAPLES.
They Are the Workshops of the peoeIs
In the Poorer Quarters

The ancient cAy of Naples has al
ways been more celebrated for its
beauty and interest OF its surroundings
than for its own attractiveness or
scenic advantages.
The charm OF Naples itself lies in its
lfe-the careless, open air life Of its
people, with much of it passed al
most wholly out of doors under the
gaze Of the passerby. The Neapolitan
is the most buoyant. light hearted
creature in the world and. it must be
added. about the most indolent. The
streets are bright and moving pictures.
Many OF the people. men. women and
children-when these latter are not in
nocent OF any clothing-are garbed in
strange and somewhat gaudy costume,
with bright colored kerchiefs on their
heads
In the poorer and more populous
quarters all handicrafts and occupa-
tons are carried on out of doors, and
the streets are as busy as beehives.
Tailors are seen at their work, and
carvers of lava. tortoise shell and coral
articles, makers of statuary. women
sewing. cooking and performing all
their domestic duties. men. women and
children eating. sleeping. chattering,
playing, singing, all in the open. There
is no cessation TO the noise and hustle
In the streets from early morning.

songs of Naples and popular operate
airs.
All day long the rattle Of wheels. the
cracking of whips. the furious shout
ing of drivers. the jingle of the elabo-
rately decorated harness. the cries of
innumerable street hawkers, the play

with a not unpleasant and thoroughly

SEALING Wax,

Sealing wax in the present form was
first noted in London in the middle Of
the sixteenth century. A sort of earth
was used by the ancient Egyptians in
sealing papers and documents. The
Egyptians placed such earth on the
horns of cattle. and upon it was stamp
ed the seal of the priest. Thus were
identified the cattle to be used in the
sacrifices.

The MURRAY.

Despite the unexpected cold snap
the attendance at the Murray this
week is far beyond expectations which
is quite convincing that Gus Suns "A
Day At The Circus" together with
Wormwood's celebrated Dog and Mon
key Hippodrome have been given the
stamp of approval. The usual large at
tendance of ladies and children at the
matinees thus far this week warrants
the arrangement of a special chill
drens' matinee for Saturday at which
time Baby McNutt, a tot of four years,
will race with big Frank, the monkey,
to the delight of the little ones. AS has
been the custom at this theater for

"The Only Son." Tonight.

Very few plays OF modern times
have been accorded the widespread
comment which followed the produc-
ton of THE Only Som which will be
seen at the Gennett tonight with
Thomas W. Ross of Checkers" fame
in the title part. Clergymen of several
denominations have seen in this new
Winchell Smith play theme for ser
mons. And while Mr.. Smith has sue
ceeded in telling an unusually power
full story he has not failed to retain
much of the humor which made his
other play, The Fortune Hunter" and
"Brewsters Millians" famous. Some
have ever gone so far as to herald
The Only Son" as the real American
drama. Al any rate Mr.. Smith has sue
ceeded in producing play which is
pleasing a vast number of people for
curtain calls unnumbered have been
the rule at all performa noes. Mr.. Ross
in THE Only Son" is said to have the
strongest role in his career.

Angeles.

Los Angeles, Cal, June Bert
Fl. Franklin in his testimony on

U. S. IS REPRESENTED
IN WIRELESS CONFERENCE
TrienniaI Radio-TeIegraph Congress
Opened Today in london-Many
Subjects to Be Discussed.

London, June at the opening of
the triennial international radio-tele-
graph conference here on Monday the
United States was represented for the
first time since the advent of commu-
nication without wires.
In all the previous conventions and
conferences where the nations of the
world gathered to formulate laws and
frame regulations of the transmission
of messages through the air, the Uni
ted States was unrepresented, because
of the power Of the United Wireless
company and other like corporations
in America to prevent congress from
ratifying the Berlin conference. OF
1906, wherein the European nations
pledged themselves to send delegates
to a wireless conference, to be held
every three years. But congress, IN
March last, ratified the Berlin confer
ence, and accordingly IL representa-
tives of the United States appeared at
the present conference.
Because of the Titanic disaster,
wherein the wireless played a most
prominent and important part, this
meeting of the international confer
ence is expected to be the most I'M
portant ever held
Among the subjects to be discuss
ed during the coming two weeks are:
international distress signals; con-
duct Of operators in case of danger;
Redistribution of signals for interna-
tional craft Unloading an entire re-
Obstruction of the United States yes
sels), and an appeal to the nations OF
the world to legislate against anna
teurs being allowed to break into
messages and use the air during
times of danger or great stress Of
business.
