ALBANIANS MAKE
MONTPENS|ER KING
Son Of French Pretender Is
Now Full Pledged Ruler.

Paris.-A dispatch from Brindisi re.
ceived here says that the Duke of
Montpensier was proclaimed king Of
Albania by the provisional government
of that country. >
The country which has now set up
government of it's own was at the be-
ginning of the Balkan war vilayet of
Turkey in Europe. Not long after the
war started, however, finding itself
harassed on one side by the Bulga-
rians, on another by the Greeks and
on another by the Servians, it appealed
to the great powers for protection and
proclaimed a provisional government.
Keamil Bey became president Of the
new government Professionally until the
Albanians should have complied with
the DEGREES Of the ambassadors of the
great powers resulting from the peace
conference in London, which decree
said that Albania should not be parti-
toned among the Balkan states, but
that it should be ruled over by prince
of some royal house of Europe and su-
pervised by the powers.
Inc Duke or MOntpensler was ap-
preached several weeks ago on the
subject of becoming Albania's new
ruler, but as the prince is wealthy and
already socially prominent, being re-
lated to the royal families of Bulgaria,
Spain and Italy, he was not especially
attracted by the idea of becoming king.
Duke Montpensier, the new Albania
ruler, is Twenty-Five years old, only
brother and heir of the Duke of Or
leans, chief of the Royalist party in
France. In spite Of the fact that his
exile prevents him from serving in the
French navy, the people of France are
attached to him because of his explora-
ton services in the hinterland Of Ton
king and French Cochin China and for
the bravery he showed in the Moroc-
can campaign when he served under
the banner Of Spain.
His most popular title Of Duke of
Montpensier comes from his mother,
who swas q Spanish infanta, the daugh-
ter of the Duke Of Montpensier His
father, from whom he inherits his am
pie fortune, was the Comte de Paris.
His sister married the Duke Of Aosta,
cousin of King Victor Emmanuel of
Italy.

One curious result Of the study Of
the mural paintings and engra wings on

the evidence which it has afforded that
bows and arrows were already in use

at N1aux bisons, horses, deer and wild

temperature and atmosphere leads him
to this conclusion:
What we know Of Mars shows us a
planet icebound every night, but with
day temperature somewhat above
freezing point. As we see 1t. we look
upon Its warmest regions, and the
rapidity with which 1t is cleared Of ice
snow and cloud shows the atmosphere
to be rare and the moisture little In
amount and readily evaporated. These
seas are probably shallow depressions
filed with ice to the bottom, but melt

the variety of tints noted in the seas
and the recurrent changes in their out
lines. they are composed of congeries
of shallow pools. fed by small. slug
