The Princess strongly resembles
her mother, having dark hair and
eyes, an olive complexion, and the
slow smile not unlike the famous one
in the Mona Lisa paintings. She has
been given even more of the modern
outdoor education than many of the
Italian girls who haze followed the
English and American custom. She
plays tennis well, rides, swims and i;
an excellent pistol and rifle sho,
Since the war began she has been the
constant companion and aid of her
mother in the work among the poor
families of soldiers and in the hos
pitfalls, particularly the later.
The Princess is a Catholic, and the
English law does not allow of the oc-
cupancy of the Births throne by a
Catholic, but among those who wish
to Sc the marriage carried out, it is
recalled that in recent years certain
princess have changed their religion
in order to become queens. The Queen
of Spain became a Catholic on her
marriage while the Queen of Greece

RAILWAYS BEING
DELAYED BY THE
TERRIBLE RAINS

All of the scheduled passenger trains
on the Seaboard are moving both ways
through Americas today, although
somewhat delayed. The only trouble
on that line in this immediate section
was a washiut west of Plains.
The Central of Georgia railway is
not experiencing any serious trouble
il this immediate section, although the
water has caused muhc damage TO
tracks and bridges in Alabama &C.

tower, agent of the Central of Geor-
gia in Americas.
Mr. Hightower states that his road
has lost several miles of track near
Eufoula and Ozark, Ala, and that a
large fill has been lost south of AL
bany on the Central. The Central
trains are moving between Macon and
Montgomery through Americas, al
though somewhat late.
The Central will have tie excursion
to Macon early Tuesday morning
read yand running on time, when it is
expected that many people will avail
themselves of the opportunity of visit
ing the troops.

adopted the religion Of the country
for the same reason.
Should the marriage not take place
the fact may some day develop that
it was because the princess so willed.
The Italian royal family is known to
be sufficiently converted to democrat
ic ideas to ideas not to insist on a
wedding which the princes fails to
view with full approval. AS the
throne of Italy cannot be inherited by
a woman, the marriage of ropal prin-
cess has not the far-reaching political
importance that is true in the case Of
the Prince of Wales The war hav-
! ing apparently eliminated both Ger
man and Austrian suitors, if the
Princess Yolanda marries in neither
England or Russia, she may after all
marry in Italy, where many of the
princely houses consider themselves
quite as good as the House of Savoy
The Italian royal family is far
Weather than the English royal
family, being rated only second as
to that of Russia in wealth, and much
of this wealth is in cold cash, not in
undeyeloped lands.

TRINIDAD YOUTH SLAIN
MURDERED BY CATTLE RUS
TIERS NEAR SCOTT RANCH.
From Spot Where Father Was
Killed Over Year Ago.

| Western Newspaper Union News Service
Trinidad.-A short distance from the
spot where his father, James Scott,
was shot and killed year and half
| ago, William Scott, 10, was murdered
by cattle rustlers near the Scott ranch,
fourteen miles northwest of Trinidad.
Scott and younger brother set out
from the house late in the day and
came across two men skinning the
carcass of calf The men fled, and
William Scott remained with the car
cass while his younger brother re-
turned to the house for horses with
which to overtake the fugitives. When
he returned he found his brother dead
with a bullet wound through the heart.
The carcass had disappeared.
| Posses are securing Las Anlmas
county in search of the two men. The
younger boy described the men as un-
dersized and of foreign appearance,
presumably either Mexican or Italian.
| James Scott. a justice Of the peace
in this district, and the father of the
murdered boy, met his death while
driving down a road near his ranch in
April, 1915. Six weeks later Frank
Fucurino was found guilty of the mur-
der and sentenced to a life term in
the penitentiary. Police authorities
do not believe the two murders have
any connection.

READING for a Boy.

We wish we could get the boys to
read "In Tune With the Infinite" Lub-
books pleasures of Life" Drum
mond's Natural Law in the Spiritual
World" Wagner's "The Simple Life"
serviss' Astronomy With an Opera
GLASS;" and similar books, all Of which
could be read in the time that boy
usually fritters away. 1t needn't take
away moment of the time devoted to
fun and play, though it might divide
time with the usual branches Of study.
We speak of the above books be-
cause they tend to awake ones divine
energies and make ones life nobler
and happier. The greatest part Of a
lad is his spirit. With that, impulses,
aspirations and tendencies are created.
Without it, his life becomes negative
and vague. These books in places may
be little difficult to appreciate. but
IL boy can get some flavor from them
that will be decided benefit to him.
It Is the way to acquire diligence, pur-
pose, insight into the meaning of
things, the love of duty, the grand
heights of self-reliance, traits and
qualities that glorify boy.
The fact is the boys spirit Is mis-
used at home and school because 1t is
not fed on the food that strengthens
1t. 1t cyphers and parses and refuses
to admit to its heart, courtesy, cour-
age, work, aspiration, reverence and
other divinities that are knocking to
get in. The reading of these books
will change all that and actually put
a boy in tune with the infinite.-Ohio
