ROME. August 1O-The arrest in
Milan of Prince Charles Bakounine. son
of the famous Russian anarchist, on a
charge of appropriating $4,000 intrust-
ed to him by Milanese capitalists for
the purchase of a sulphur mine in
Sicily. has solved a mystery of many
years standing. 1t has at the same

venturous career Of the prince. who
has already begun to serve a term Of
five years in Jail. to which he was
sentenced ten years ago on charge

Years ago the prince, who is still in
the prime of life. was a familiar figure
in aristocratic salons i'm Rome. He
was also the hero OF love romance
which won him the sympathies of all
feminine hearts. The heroine. Miss
Canneto. now dead. was a beauty OF
her time. She was the daughter or
a deputy in the Italian parliament. who
was the proprietor of iron mines i'm
Sardinia. The father strongly opposed
the match on the ground that the
prince had inherited from his father
a revolutionary temperament. The
deputy died and the couple were mar
ried.
Ten years ago. following financial
reverses. the prince was arrested on a
charge of obtaining money by false
pretenses. He did not defend the suit
and was sentenced to five years.
Pending an appeal the prince disap-

LONDON, August 1O.-Britsh weather
had a depressing effect on Cowes week.
Indeed. it may be said that as social
event the famous regatta was only saved
from being a dismal fizzle by the pres
ence Of the King Of Spain and his young
brothers-in-law, Leopold. Maurice and
Alexander of Battenberg.
After publicly announcing that affairs
of state would detain him at home, AL
fonso after all changed his mind and
sneaked over unostentatiously to Cowes.

time Of his life. Madrid and his cabinet

Queen of Spain and her little daughter,
also Princess Christian, Princess Victoria

King an Entertainer.
Princess Henry delighted in her Span
ish son-in-law's after-dinner antics, for
his spirits are as high as ever. One even
ing he amused them with a Spanish song
and dance, attired a la belle Otero, and
on another occasion he gave darby en-

which is one of the best in COWeS and
almost within a stones throw of the
Royal Yacht Squadron headquarters, was
taken some time ago from house agents
at a very high price by woman who
gave most excellent references and a
check for the rent in advance. Private
invitations were circulated among
wealthy visitors to the regatta asking
their company to supper any day during
the week. while touts were busy raking
up "punters.
The result has been that the house has
been crowded every night, and play has
gone on until or o'clock in the morn
ing.
The baccarat mania has got society in
its grip just now, and more than one
young man of noble family has been
forced to depart suddenly for quiet
holiday on the continent.

Fruits Of Soil and Spirit.

From the Cleveland Leader.
Palestine is fast becoming one of the
great orangegrowing countries Of the
world Much fruit of excellent quality
is being shipped every year to London
and other markets in northern Europe.
and this year the crop of the district
near Jaffa. the port of Jerusalem, is
estimated at 100000 boxes. Farther
up the Syrian coast Tyre and Sidon are
expected to reach a total Of 100000
cases of oranges exported and 100000
cases of lemons.
For small country Palestine has
many interesting and valuable prod
ucts. Its olive groves are as pro-
ductive as they are ancient and it's
vineyards yield grapes of fine quality
in great abundance. Notwithstanding
the drawback of a sometimes very de-
ficient and usually scanty water sup
ply, Syria produces a large quantity
Of excellent food.
But it is not easy to think Of Pal

thinking of the immeasurably more
important exports of ideas and ideals
from that little country BY COMPARE

which have gone out from Syria to en-
rich the world. all the products of the
soil which can be shipped from it's

LONDON. August 10.-A publication
known as the Christian Commonwealth,
which prints articles concerning the
doctrine of materialism yielding to
psychic study, announces that Mrs.
Brown Potter, is now engaged at her
coantry seat in the study of the soul.
Mrs Brown Potter, so it is said, has
placed herself under Hindu guru, and
"Atma Durshan," and soul communion,
as taught by the Yogis in Gosainthan
Temple, in the Himalayas. is the special
subject to which she is devoting her
energies.
The Gosainthan School Of Psychic Gull
ture is unknown in this country and in
America. Gosainthan being above the
perpetual snow line. $4,000 feet above
the sea, is difficult of access, which
may explain why the cult is little
known, even in India.
