THUGS WORKED IN RIVER.

A curious form of crime has just been brought to light in Delhi. A gang of bad characters have been making a practice of hiding in the river Jumna and pulling down into the water boys and women wearing gold and silver jewelry who go to the river to bathe. Recently several boys and women disappeared, and their bodies have not been recovered. A few days ago a Marwari woman. wearing heavy gold jewelry, while bathing was suddenly caught by somebody from below the water. She raised a cry, and two of her compan- ions caught hold of her and prevent ed her from being dragged down. Help arrived and Mohammedan was caught in the water. He was arrested. Lately on one day five boys similarly disappeared; two were the sons of city jewellers.

ALFONSO'S SONS ARE NORMAL
Persistent Rumor in Spain That They Are Defective Shown to
 Be Erroneous.

There seems to be a persistent ru- nor in Spain that the little sons of King Alfonso are seriously defective. The late Kellogg Durland in his re- gently published "Royal Romances of Today wrote that after spending a morning with them in play in the Casa de Campo and finding them bright, normal, healthy children he was surprised to be engaged by people at his hotel in conversation like the following:
 ''What a pity that the princes are not right in their faculties"
 ''But they are perfectly right" I replied, indulgently; ''those stories are pure nonsense."
 ''Oh! no, sir. You must be mis- taken"
 "How can I be mistaken ?" I an- swered. "I have just spent morn- ing with them and I found them not only normal in every way, but par ticularly intelligent"
