Alexander to the National museum and
the libraries of her husband and her
son to the Academy of Science at the
Servian capital
Natalie became the wife of King
Milan of SerYia in 1879 at the age of
sixteen. Her son. the ill fated Alex
ander. was born year later, but by
that time she and her husband We're
scarcely on speaking terms owing to
his dissOlute life They separated in
1856 and Natalie went to WieSbaden
with her son. Two years later Milan
succeeded in getting possession Of
Alexander and induced the metrOpoli-
tan to grant him a divorce. This di-
vOrce was later declared illegal
Milan abdicated in 1889 in favor of
Prince Alexander. Queen Natalie. who
thereupon returned to Servia. was fore
ed to go into exile in 1891. but in 1904
both she and her husband returned in
triumph to Belgrade and they were
apparently reconciled. Their triumph
however. was short lived The hand
of Russia was seen in Servian politics
under the sway of Alexander. who
drove his father into exile. and Queen
Natalie again left the country, never to
return. The tragic death of Alexander
and Queen Draga followed in 1902 and
Peter KarageOrgevitch was called to
the throne IL" Obrenoyitch dynasty be-
ing extinct. Milan had died in Vienna

Over to Grand Jury.

Portland. Ore.-AlthouGh he ate the
documentary evidence against him
while on the witness stand in full view
of court attaches and spectators, ac-
cording to officials. Samuel Matheson,
Seattle contractor, was bound over
to the grand jury by Municipal Judge
Stevenson on a charge of passing Il
bad check for $50.
Matheson, while testifying in his own
behalf asked to be allowed to examine
the check, retaining it while being
questioned. He was noticed holding
his handkerchief to his mouth. and
court attaches said his jaws were bust

for the check. the prisoner declared he
did not have il. \ search failed to re

Morning
MERMAIDS

THE early morning swim is becoming
the fashion for society women in
London. and the curious spectacle
of motor cars from which emerge women
clad in robes, without head covering or
shoes, may be seen any morning outside
the public baths in Westminster.
A second contingent, riders from Rot
ten Row, generally arrives between 10
and II. One of the most enthusiastic
and regular swimmers in London is
Lady Scott, widow of the South Pole
hero. who is always accompanied by her
little son, Peter.
The early morning swim, like the dew
bath for the feet which was so popular
ago, is said to be very beneficial to ones
health.
The fair English devotees declare the
before-breakfast dip just puts them on
edge for the round Of social gaieties in
the English capital, or equips them for a
better days work IL they are engaged in
more serious occupations like Lady
Scott, who is capable sculptor.
Lady Scott, by the way, does not
merely bathe, but she actually swims,
and there are few men outside of pro-
fessional ranks that have her out
classed.
AS diver Lady Scott is known from
one end Of the English isles TO the other. Re
Gently in a water exhibition given for
charity in London Lady Scott was one of
the diving Venuses, who attracted much
attention by her grace and dexterity in
the water.

DOES a Meter
Reader WORK?

FEW people realize how many motions
meter readers have to go through in
collecting the information neces-
sary for making up electric bills. Some
interesting facts are brought out in the
analysis of a meter readers movements
in a town of II, 900 people, as presented
in the Electrical World.
The data show that twenty eight
hours was required in reading 73O meters.
During that time 6s1 stairs were climbed
and 1857 doors had to be opened. IN
travelling from one consumers house to
the next the meter reader traversed 304
blocks and crossed streets 3l4 times.
These figures suggest that considerable
time could be saved the men, while in
convenience could be spared the custom
ers, If meters were installed in more
accessible places, such as, for instance,
on back porches.
