Uruguay’s capital, Montevideo, with ets population of 216,000, contains al most one-third of the inhabitants oil -the republic, who number about 780, 000, with an area of 72,000 square miles. Nearest to this among countries of importance is Denmark, 19 per cent of 4vhose inhabitants live in Copenhagen. Jf the population of the British isl ands, about 10 per cent inhabit the metropolis, while very nearly one fourth of the inhabitants of Scotland live in its comm ^rc?al capital, Glas gow. Christiania holds 10 per cent of the people of Norway, Brussels 8 per cent of those of Belgium, and Parish 6 per cent of all Frenchmen who live in their own country. Holland, at its official capital, The Hague, and its two commercial capitals of Amsterdam and Rotterdam, has altogether one-fifth of ■the total population.—Stray Stories. ROYAL JEWELS GUARDED. When Not In Pawn These Banblee Are Carefully Watched. ' Royal people are much given to the accumulation of jewels of great price, and they take especial care that these baubles are not* 6tolen. Many of the so-called “crown-jewels” which are shown to visitors to the Tower of London are “paste,” the real gems be ing secured in strong vaults in iron bound boxes. The Jewels of the Rus sian imperial fami. 7 form one of the : most valuable collections in the world. This collection is guarded in a forti fied castle watched over by a special detail of 180 retired officers and a body of soldiers. For this service they are well paid. No officer who in his days of active service was addicted to gam bling or to extravagance can ever hope to be selected as one of the custodians of the Imperial jewels. The czar keeps a portion of his own private jewels in banks in London and Paris,so that in case a revolution should break out in St. Petersburg he would have an “an chor to windward” in the two foreign capitals. The treasures of the royal family of Italy are hidden away in deep , vaults beneath a fort situated on a lit | tie island in the Tiber. Protected by the old, muddy stream overhead and the military on the island, the jewels are beyond the dreams of even the most daring and sanguine of burglars. The prince of Bulgaria is possessed of precious stones to the value of $5, 000,000. These he keeps locked in a little castle on the banks of the Dan ube. King Milan of Servla keeps such of his jewels as are not in pawn in London and Paris banks. A ruby neck lace belonging to the king is said to be in pawn for $100,000. Some of the jewels belonging to the German imper ial family are kept in London banks like those of the czar.

Mrs. J. K. Robb, a deaf-mute of Greensburg, Pa., gave birth tc twin3 recently and in a day or two began to hear dimly. She has steadily im proved in this respect and now nearly every sound is audible to her. Physi cians are unable to account for the cir cumstance. Mrs. Robb has already learned to pronounce simple words and there is no reason to doubt that she will eventually gain complete power of speech. One Drawback to Deportation. Minister Wu Ting Fang waa recently told a story In regard to the Chinese, exclusion act that pleased him notice ably. Soon after the act was passed the secretary of state received a letter from Pennsylvania, signed by a China man. The writer said that he had come to this country under false pre tenses and hence he should be deported to China Immediately. The request was so strange: that the secretary of state ordered an Investigation. The agent reported a few days later that the Chinaman’s statement about the way In which he entered this country was correct and that he should be de ported. There was one drawback, however. The Chinaman had been con victed of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment. Btformi la German Language. The Allgemeiner Deutscher Sprach* verein Is a German association to en courage the simplification and purity of the German language. One of its alms Is to make both spoken and writ en German simpler, not only by using shorter and less involved sentences, but by the elimination of the use of foreign words In the social, business and scientific worlds. The headquar ters of the association are in Berlin and there are branches in Milan and many parts of Austria as well as In London. "^"j^The kind You Have Always Bought timllo ligaitwo of bon •totj vrospoa Prlne* Bnpart In DUfriit. A disaster second only to Naseby, and still more unforeseen, soon follow ed. Fairfax and Cromwell laid siege to Bristol, and after a fierce and dar ing storm (Sept 14), Rupert, who bad promised the king that he could hold out for four good months, suddenly I capitulated, and rode away to Oxford under the humiliating protection of a parliamentary convoy. The fall of this famous stronghold of the west was the severest of all the king’s mortifica tions, as the failure of Rupert's wonted courage was the strangest of military surprises. That Rupert was too clear- j sighted not to be thoroughly discour-! aged by the desperate aspect of the ! king’s affairs is certain, and the mili tary difficulties of sustaining a long siege were thought, even by those who had no reasons to be tender to his fame, to justify the surrender. The king would listen to no excuses, but wrote Rupert an r-" / 1 ...r, declar ing so mean an ac ;n to be the great- i e.st trial of his consta: that had yet happened, depriving him of his com missioners, and bidding him begone beyond the seas. Rupert nevertheless insisted on following the king to New ; ark, and after some debate v.v.s de clared to be free of all disloyalty or treason, but not of indiscretion.—John Morley, in March Century. , DECISION We have decided to stay all summer and we want your trade.
