Some years ago a prince OF the reigning family
OF a minor European state arrived In London for
short visit without penny
The attache, however, who was commissioned
to look after him. brought a pawnbroker to the
hotel where the prince was staying, who advanced
$1,000 on the princes Jewels. which lasted the
prince until he obtained money from his own
country, fortunately only a few days later.
One OF the most amusing Incidents | remember

Paris--A small commune near Creil
has been the scene of a savage crime.
A man, an alleged drunkard and idler.
1t Is true, but, nevertheless, father Of
a family Of five children. has been
murdered by his son and wife. The
man was workman, and lived with
his family at Villiers Saint Paul. His
eldest son was nineteen. He had four
other children.
Two daughters. still under age. had
left their home because Of the alleged
cruelty and bad conduct OF their faith.
er. He drank heavily, worked little,
and terrorized his wife and children.
His wife and eldest son seem to have
come to the conclusion between them
that It was best to suppress" him.
The son bought revolver and 25
cartridges. He was prepared to "fin.
ish his father off," on the occasion OF
his first fresh quarrel.
The occasion was not long In com.
Ing. The father returned in a bad
humor at 8 o'clock in the evening, and
the quarrel began. as 1t had done often
before. over some triHe. The father
threatened to punch the head OF his
son, and the latter .hereupon drew his
weapon and discharged six shots al
him. The mother ran out of the
house. and the wounded man dragged
himself into the bedroom. The son
walked out of the house and said tc
his mother. He is done for now
That instant the man inside was heard
to groan. He is not dead at all, &c
and finish him." said the mother.
The son went into the room and
found his father trying to get into the
bed, and groaning and bleeding from
his wounds. He took good aim this
time at his father, fred two shots, and
killed him. An hour later mother and
son made up their minds to 60 and
inform the police. The next morning
one Of her daughters. aged seventeen
who had left her home. came to see
the mother in prison. The mother
made no secret Of the story. She told
In the presence Of the gendarmes how
1t had been agreed some days before
between her and her eldest son to kill
her husband, who had become a ter
