How Europe E.xpels the
"Swagger" Emigrant

and as fit object Of American hospi-
tality.
When Don Ludovico was in the
United States last winter I had occa-
sion 10 point out that he wes not, as
claimed, a cousin and near kinsman OF
the King Of Spain that he did not be-
long to the Spanish grandezza " to the
Spanish aristocracy; that his second
name was not "of Aragon," which be-
longs to the reigning house OF Spain,
and which is the designation Of Span
ish kingdom--Alfonso XIII If King OF
Aragon--but that he was Of Aragona, u
little, obscure townlet in Sicily. l also
showed that his title, such as 1t was,
was a Sicilian and Neapolitan dignity,
that his family hailed from Sicily. max
ing its headquarters at Naples, and
that since neither he nor his father
had secured the registration Of the
Neapolitan title OF prince either from
tho Consulta Heraldica at Rome or
from the Royal Department Ct Her
aldry at Madrid, they had no authority
from either OF these Kingdoms to style
themselves prince Finally 1 drew
attention TO the fact that while Don
Ludovico's ancestry. both on the
fathers and on the mothers side, was
blue blooded, yet he possessed no fort
une, and, moreover, did not oelong t.
any reputable club, either In Madrid o.
in Paris. In consequence of these
statements / became involved In cor
respondence with some friends with
whom he had become intimate on this
side OF the Atlantic, and who took up
the cudgels In his behalf But they
were unable to disprove any Of my pub
lished statements, which I have the
satisfaction Of knowing prevented him
from obtaining the hand-and,. incl
dentally, the fortune-of very charm

fessed to be engaged.

despair at the breaking Off OF n mar
riage upon which he had set his heart
II seems that II was this attempted
suicide which first caused the French
authorities to accord some notice to
Don Ludovico, and they Instituted an
inquiry as to just who he really IL. The
result Of their Investigations was not
altogether satisfactory. They ascer-
tained that although he passed himself
off as q grandee, and. ipso facto, as a
chamberlain Of the King Of Spain, he
did not belong TO the Spanish Gram
dezza, and held no office at the Court
of Madrid; that his insinuations to the
effect that he was a secret agent Of the
Spanish government were equally de-
void of foundation, and that while he
lived well, he had no visible means Of
support. This resulted in his being
placed under the surveillance OF the
police and. according to the cable dis
patches from Paris. II was found that

NATIONAL GUARD NEWS.

For the first time in the history OF the
New York National Guard. and perhaps
any other. there IS 10 be an interesting
experiment made In night fring by artil-
lery on the range at the state camp, near
Peekskill. This test In field firing has
been ordered by Major General john r.
Organ, commanding the guard, 10 be
held next Saturday. To this end he has
directed Colonel y. b. Thurston. COM
handing the lst Regiment Of Field Arul-
lery, 20 have u battery on the ground
ana take charge OF the test. II seems
that there has been much speculation
among officers as 10 the effectiveness OF
artillery fire at night. particularly at
searchlights used to illuminate the fore
ground of a defensive position. During
a field problem at Pine Camp no, long
ago which involved the defence OF
bridge head, the defensive force used
searchlights 10 illuminate the foreground
over which the attacking infantry was
required TO advance. a battery OF artil-
lery with the attacking force obtained a
position with the site defilade behind
crest approximately about 500 yards from
the defenders position, and opened fire
on tho searchligh. using, of course, only
blank ammunition. The umpires ruled
that the attack was repulsed because OF
the effective use of the searchlight. Com
plant, however. was made by many artll-
lery officers present that the light would
have been destroyed by guns at the range
indicated. Some other officers argued that
there was no more illuslonary target than
searchlight, and that the chance Of
striking such n target was small.
The test at Peekskill will involve two
problems in which service ammunition
will be used. In the first problem the
position Of the searchlight will be pointed
out to the battery commander In the af-
ternoon, and he win be permitted to
reconnoiter and attain all the firing data
under actual conditions. In the night
time the battery commander will be re-
quired to IRE at the searchlight, and
after a stated period another searchlisht
In different position will DO turned on,
and he will be directed TO destroy it. The
experiment in the second problem will
involve firing at searchlight without
any knowledge as to range or location
other than that obtainable by the beam
OF the light General organ extends an
invitation TO all officers interested TO at
tend tho firing
