WHY KINGS DON'T CALL
This Country Could Not Receive One
Officially.

If King Alfonso Of Spain can per-
suade his government to let him visit
our shores-a feat he is trying hard
to accomplish-he will be the first
reigning European king to drag the
royal purple over the land Of the free
and the home Of the brave.
We have had monarchs here be-
fore, and indeed reigning ones says
the New York Evening Sun, but they
were usually from the cannibal is
lands and coral reef circuits. For in
stance, about a quarter Of century
ago. that distinguished potentate,
King Kalakaua, Of the then primi-
tive and un-Americanized Hawaiian
Islands, used to transport his august
person across the Pacific and favor
US with a visit now and then. With
in the last few years the highly civil
lied and progressive Gaekwar Of
Baroda has twice visited America,
and his son is even now student at
Harvard. The Gaekwar's throne is
under British protection.
Kings do not call on us as q rule,
though they frequently drop in on
Republican France, and are welcom-
ed there. The reason Is simple-we
could not receive a king officially.
Though we have all kinds Of systems,
from the tipping system to the civil
service system, we lack the system
that nearly every other nation revels
in, the system Of official rank, which
recognizes hereditary dignities.
King Alfonso goes to visit the
Kaiser. Just before he reaches Ber-
lin he will remove his common clothes
and don the uniform Of a Prussian
regiment Of dragons Of which he Is
titular colonel. The kaiser simultane-
ously will hurry to the storehouse,
self in the uniform Of the Royal
Spanish Lancers, in which he, in turn,
is a titular colonel. The emperor will
meet his august brother at the station
with a full military escort, the crowds
will cheer, the bands will play, the
monarchs bow, and so triumphantly
they will arrive at the palace as self
respecting monarchs are accustomed
to arrive.
Now, If King Alfonso comes to this
country his reception WILL sad to say,
be far, far different. He cannot don
the uniform of an officer in crack
American regiment. because he has no
authority to do so; neither can Pres
ident Wilson, for various reasons,
don the uniform Of a Spanish regi-
ment Of lancers. Nor will there be
any considerable part Of the United
States Of America waiting to greet
his majesty as the ship comes in.
AS he steps down the gangplank a
newsboy may very likely brush the
royal sleeve with a newspaper. A GUS
toms man may insist on the king
signing his declaration with his last
name. Once the king is allowed to step
on our little island, the best he can do
is to proceed incognito to a good no.

HOME OF THE TWISTER
Great Storms That Have Hit the Mis-
sissippi Valley,

The Mississippi valley, the home Of
the twisting tornado, furnishes long
list Of storms, among which that OF
the most disastrous.
The storm which swept the city Of
Galveston on September 2, 1900, was
probably the most terrible disaster re-
sulting from purely natural causes In
the history of the North American
continent. A West Indian hurricane
strayed out Of its path held the city In
its gasp for more than eighteen
hours. The wind velocity reached
1876 miles an hour and the waters OF
the bay were forced up into the city,
with a resulting loss Of more than
5000 lives. The property loss was
nearly twenty millions.
Adams county, Miss, will long re-
main remarkable as having been the
scene Of two deadly tornadoes only
two years apart. The first came In
May, lS40, and the second in June,
1S42 The first killed S17 persons and
the second was even more severe,
causing the death Of 500.
Although the west is the home Of
the "twister" and the cyclone celler,
the east has suffered occasional dis
turbances. Louisville, KY, Is one
city Of large size that stood In the
years ago this month a tornado traV-
ersed part Of the city, killing seventy
six and injuring 200, with a property
loss Of two millions.
Much nearer home, we find that a
storm visited Wallingford, New Haven
county. Conn. in August, 1878. Thir--
ty-four persons lost their lives and
the violent windstorm was reported
to have blown off monuments In
cemetery.
Fannin county, Texas, was the CEN
tire Of disturbance in May, 1881,
that blew at a rate of one hundred
miles an hour, killing forty and injur-
ing ninety-three persons. Six years
later the cities Of ST. Cloud and Sauk
Rapids, Mimi, were tornado swept.
with the death Of nearly half a hum
dred. Prescott county, Kansas, suf-
fered from a destructive storm In
April, 1887, which killed twenty.
More than 800 buildings were levelled
by the wind.
OF recent storms the hurricane
from off the Gulf that swept Pensa-
cola in September, 1906, is notable.
The town was inundated by water
driven in by the gale and great des-
truction was wrought among the ship
ping. Half hundred lives were
lost.
In April, 1908, Louisiana, Mississip-
pi, Alabama. Georgia. Arkansas. and
Tennessee were storm swept with a
loss Of life of $50 and an injured list
Of more than 1900.
The cyclones, great, widespread air
disturbances, are not in themselves
usually destructive. 1t Is the local
disturbances within the great area
covered by the cyclone, and most usu--
ally in the southeast quadrant, that
the damage is done. This was the
case in the last big storm.

now and then to a law officer to at
tend a meeting Of the British cabinet
in order to keep members right on
points of law, and story is told about
q remarkable conflict Of wit across the
table between Mr.. Gladstone and an
attorney general of the day who had
been called in.
The attorney general was Sir Rich
ard Bethel, who was never a very
manageable man and was proving a
thorn In the side Of Mr.. Gladstone,
then chancellor Of the exchequer, with
some big schemes on hand.
Mr.. Gladstone was determined to
take a certain course and Sir Rich
ard Bethel was equally determined
against 1t.
He told the cabinet that it would be
contrary to the law and, by way OF
supporting himself, produced bulky
and forbidding book Of law, from
which he read at great length.
Mr.. Gladstone asked to be allowed
to see the volume and, turning over
the leaves, began to read another pas
sage which qualified away the one the
attorney general had read and set
matters right from Mr. Gladstone's
point Of view.
Coming away from the meeting, a
member of the cabinet asked Mr..
Gladstone how he came to know that
such a passage as the one he had read
was in the book.
TT was not" said Mr.. Gladstone,
"and neither was the passage which
Bethel read"

this titanic criminal, literally an enc
my to all society, to Justice? Reading
between the lines Of Stewards written
narrative we can fancy such answer
as this:
"Murrell must be arrested at once,
though am the only witness on whose
testimony an indictment could be
found. Murdered men tell no tales and
negro statements have no legal value
There will be scores to give perjured
evidence to rebut my charges. know
quite we'll that the story Of the slave
insurrection conspiracy and its extend
ed network will be considered so mon
strous as to be food for ridicule, and
the conspirators will take advantage
Of that. Yet we must move promptly,
and at any risk, in the seizure Of the
king villain, and keep him under lock
and key while we hunt testimony to
corroborate mine and have time to
awaken public opinion.
IF We wait and take chances on the
future, suspicion Of me may kindle at
any time, and 1t will be such hair
trigger work, with Murrell free to do
his will, and with so many accomplices
that my life wouldn't be worth thistle
down. But II we arrest him, his abb
sence will leave the gang temporarily
paralyzed, for no one Of them will be
sure Of his own safety in the first
crash Of the shock. He's the brain,
heart and soul Of everything. Let US
fasten him by the throat, and then
trust to the future to build up further
proof"
So It was determined that John
Murrell should be arrested in an ad-
joining county and not In the vicinity
Of Tuscahoma, as 1t might mean that
Clanton, who was justice Of the peace
as well as probate judge, would at
Champion and some Of his friends
came at Stewards call and with Par
son Henning, his son, and half dozen
trusty spirits, all armed to the teeth,
serving as posse, warrant was duly
sworn out and Murrell taken. When
the robber marked one face among his
captors he spat on the ground and
growled out between his teeth with
sort Of frozen rage: ~
TITS well for you that was such
- fool; but mark you, traitor, this
business isn't done yet, reckon!"
Stewart half confesses that for
moment, demoniac-like villain as he
knew the other to be, he felt pang Of
shame that 1t had fallen to him, for
whom q wretch like this had shown
his one human weakness, to be the in
strument Of his betrayal, necessary as
that was for the good of the common
wealth. While awaiting the action Of
the grand jury, the arch-desperado es-
capped by connivance, but was retaken
and lodged in a Memphis prison, where
he could be more effectively guarded.
There he remained for several months
before trial, the Indictment being for
negro stealing, as the proofs Of his
vastly more heinous crimes were, as
Stewart had anticipated, difficult to
marshal. Murrell was convicted and
condemned to ten years in the peni-
tentiary for kidnapping and selling
slave property.-Answers.

Tommy presented himself at her desk,
flushed with triumph. The glow soon
faded from his face, however, as he
felt in his pockets one after another

according to a story told by Congress-

proprietor, who was away on pleas

something else, and struck a match
