Italy’s Gentle Queen.

Some time ago the Queen of Italy
asked a little girl to knit her a pair of
silk mittens for her birthday, giving
her the money for the material. A
pair of beautifully worked mittens ar-
rived on the Queen’s birthday. The
little girl received in return another
pair; one mitten containing lires, the
other bonbons. Queen Margurite in-
closed a little note, saying: “Tell me,
my dear child, which you like best.”
The reply ran as follows: “Dearest
Queen—Your lovely presents have
made me shed many tears. Papa took
the“ mittens with the money; my broth-
er had the bonbons.”——Detroit Free
Press.

His ‘Vedding Announcement.

A young Englishman was married in
Chicago the other day and announced
the event to his family, living in
Shanghai, Cliina, in a cablegram con-
sisting of the one word: “Hurrah,”
knowing his relations would under-
stand since he had of course, written
them of his engagement. He has
money to “burn,” and could have
cabled a full account of the wedding
without creating any financial distress
to himself. As it was there was noth-
ing cheap in the message.

It cost $8.10.—Chicag0' Times Herald.

The First Man Dressmaker.

As far back as 1730 there was in
Paris a man dressmaker, and probably
the first of his kind. His name was
Bhomberg, and he was the son of a
Bavarian peasant from the neighbor-
hood of Munich. He owed his success
to his genius for concealing and reme-'~
dying defects of figure. He drove a
beautiful carriage on the boulevard,
and had an escutcheon in the shape of
a pair of corsets and an open pair of
scissors painted on the panel of each
floor. He left a large fortune to his
heirs—New York Sun.

“was a. sufferer from Catarrh in its
worst form. Truly, his description of

glad for the night’s coming, he went to
it with terror, realizing that another
long, weary, wakeful night and a
struggle to breathe was before him.

BERLIN can LETTER

The Kaiser Highly Pleased Over the
' Patiiotic Celebration.

HE PRAISES HIS SUBJECTS.

In an Imperial Decree He Gives Them
Thanks For Their Patriotism—The
Citizens, Though, Are Disgusted
and Legal Fraternity Amazed.

Berlin, March 29.—Tlie official Reichs-
anzeiger publishes an imperial decree 'ac—

knowledging the enthusiastic manner in-

which the centenary of the birth of Wil-
liam I was celebrated “by all German pa-
triots, without distinction of creed, politics
or vocation, in the north, south, east and
west, in the fatherland and outside. ”

The decree concludes: “The emperor
considers himself fortunate to have been a.
witness of the soul stirring demonstration
in the capital city of the empire. His maj-
esty is greatly gratified at the evidences of
confidence and affection shown him and
expresses his warmest thanks to all who
contributed to the splendor of the day of
national celebration. The emperor sees
the deepest respect for the dead in the uni-
versal vow of the people to ever strive with
unwearied devotion to imitate the lofty
example set them and to exert all their
strength in furthering the greatness of the
fatherland, and he hopes God will vouch-
safe him grace to lead the German people
to peaceful paths and to healthy develop-
ment. ”

The unveiling of the monument to Wil-
liam I was witnessed by the whole stall of
the United States embassy and their
friends as guests of the emperor. The em-
bassy building was beflagged and decorat-
ed during the three days of the centenary
celebration. The United States embassa-
dor, Mr. Edwin F. Uhl, however, was not
present at the gala dinner at the castle nor
at the gala performance at the opera, as
only those em bassadors and ministers were
invited whose governments sent special
representatives to the celebration.

Dissatisfaction In Berlin.

The people of Berlin are intensely dis-
satisfied with their rigorous exclusion from
the ceremonies, the police enforcing this
most strictly and brutally. Unter den
Linden'was closed to the public for three
days. One sequence of the measure was
the entire absence of serious accidents. Al-
though the crowds were enormous, the
sole serious accident Was the case of a. lady
on the grand stand,who, carelessly bending
forward when t-liereil fell, was impaled
by a bayonet when the soldiers presented
arms.

The illuminations throughout the city
were on an unexampled scale. There were
brilliant electric and gas light effects, and
the castle. was magnificently illuminated.
Eight thousand pounds of red fire were
burned on top of the cupola alone. ‘

The adoption .of the tricolor German
cockade for the army was due, according
to the Saxon newspapers, to King Albert
of Saxony. The innovation does not meet
with general favor.

Emperor William’s physician, Dr. Leu-
thold, has been created a hereditary noble.

The wreaths placed at the foot of the
William I monument included those of the
Veterans’ associations of New Yorkand
Chicago. ,

The absence of the general amnesty de-
cree expected upon the occasion of the con-

tenary by the public and courts alike has -

created much discontent. The judges and
counsel for weeks past have advised per-
sons convicted no; to appeal, as the am-
nesty decree was sure to liberate them if
they f"-llowed this advice, which was in-
variably ta‘. en. The whole legal fraterni-
ty of Prussia is now amazed and dissatis-
fied. The only persons thus far pardoned
are You iiotze and a string of other con-
victed duslints serving terms of imprison
men: in the forts

It is generally remarked that neither
the regent of Bavaria. in his centenary
edict- nor the president of the reichstag in
his languot toast applied the epithet
“great" to William I, in spite' of the em-
peror’s expressed wish.

The Naval Budget.

On the resumption of the debate on the
naval estimates in the reichstag the score-
tary for the navy, Vice Admiral von Holl-
mann, made a long speech, during the
course of which he quoted the declaration
of Prince Frederick Charles in 1870 to the
effect that the future of the empire depend-
ed 'upon the future navy, which would
have to maintain the position the army
had won for the empire. In conclusion
Von Hollmann said:

“Whosoever wishes to partake in the
concert of peace must have the necessary
instruments, and I hope we shall produce
some powerful bass notes upon the bass
viol wherever we appear with our guns.
Without ships the greet victories won by
the German people will goon be forgotten
on foreign shores.”

The house passed the estimates as
amended at the second reading.

Prince Bismarck receivedan autograph
letter from his majesty on Monday last ex-
pressing appreciation of his past services.
The prime is still in bed. suffering from
a cold and rheumatism. He is not expect-
ed to rise for another week.

Prince Ludwig of Bavaria, the heir to
the throre. who made a sensational speech
at the Moscow coronation, has delivered
another rem .rknble speech at Munich in
connection with the centenary of the birth
of William I. Midi-easing an audience of
army officers. utter a. tribute to William I
he said:

”When you consider other states which
have become estranged from us and that
the German population therein is now des-
perately lighting for national existence,
you will learn doubly to appreciate the
power and glory of those German popula-
tions now belonging to the empire.”

By "other” 1‘ rince Ludwig clearly
meant Austria and Russia. At the close
of his address he called for cheers for the
prince regent as the “friend and ally of
three German emperors. ”
