LabOrer Didn't know of His Luck
with Lottery Ticket.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald.
London, May 10.-James Eastbourne, a
laboring mar, woke up recently to find
himself rich. 1t happened in this way:
James, like many other sporting Tykes,
took ticket in a sweepstake for the Eng
fish Cup final. He put it away in some
pocket OF other without noting the num-
Der, and forgot all about 1t. The cup
match was played and won by Aston
Villa, as every one knew long ago, but
James merely rejoiced with others that
the best manor, rather, team-won.
Meantime, the holders of the sweep
stake prizes were searching high and low
for the holder of No. 1867. the winning
ticket, and somehow it dawned upon Jim
that he had ticket, but he didn't know
the number. After searching in his
pockets, he found it, and, behold! it bore
the magic number.
For the modest investment Of $50 Jim
was the winner of $4,000 But, with his
Yorkshire stolidity, he was quite unmoved
on hearing the news, and went the same
old tramp to his daily round as usual
merely remarking, "Oill foind use fol
it." Eastbourne is a widower. with four

Recently the Kaiser played joke on
her imperial majesty for which she was
long in forgiving him. Surreptittously
he ordered a stunning gown from Paris
and told the Empress it was of Berlin

were superior to French. When she

Late King Edward and Himself Only
European Rulers with knowledge Of
International Politics, He Says.

Special Cable to The Washington Herald.
Berlin, May 10.-During the siege of
Scutari King Nicholas was extremely
busy debating his memoirs TO an Eng
lish journalist who went to Montenegro
to secure this valuable document for a
London newspaper syndicate
1t is understood the price paid to the
King was between $4,000 and $4,000 for
the first three instruments of the work,
which will be very long. 1t will deal
especially with Austrian intrigues and
also with the mysteries of Nicholas
connection with the Russian and Italian
courts.
When debating the memoirs, Nicholas
often said:
Il believe that many European states
men will feel uncomfortable when all
this leaks out, but, never mind, I must
defend myself for the sake of posterity."
Roosevelt His Hero.
AS will be seen in the coming memoirs
the date of the publication of which has
not yet been fixed, but probably will be
In the autumn. Nicholas has two favor
lite heroes. The first is Napoleon and
the second is Roosevelt He writes:
mot having been able to be. a Ma
poleon, l must try to be a Roosevelt
King Nicholas expresses sorrow at the
fact that Roosevelt was not reelected,
and says:
Had it been possible should have
asked the former President to visit me
In Celtinje on his return from Africa"
The memoirs also will show how
Nicholas judges all European sovereigns
He speaks very highly of the German
Kaiser, my friend" but says that the
Austrian Emperor Is nothing but a
tool in the hands of Archduke Francis
Ferdinand. whom every Montenegro
patriot should ardentiy hate"
Nicholas also says that the late King
Edward and he were the only European
rulers who knew anything about inter-
national politics, and had he even been
half as mighty as the late English King,
the whole OF the Balkan peninsula now
would stand under his rule.
Two Men Misplaced,
He adds: Two men were born in
Europe to accomplish great things and
simply did not succeed because they
were not born in the country where they
belonged. The first was Leopold III, Of
Belgium, who was political genius
placed at the head of small business
people; the second Is myself
