Steele, resigned OKdltOK W, HTMKI.K. after a year and n half of service, nud u few days later returned to his old liomu ill Marlon, Ind, The reason nlvcn for his resignation was that private business In terests demanded his attention In thu east. Ho lina since been elected president nud general malinger of Hit- large Krupp gun plant recently established in Marlon, It Is generally believed, however, that Governor Steele has further political in plrntlniiH, ami It is tcgnnlod by his friends us reasonably certain that he has been promised the pension loniinlsslonershlp In the event of the leslgii.iiiou of General Ituuin.

By dully Inbor he earned the money to pay his way through the academy nt Steclvllle, Mo., nnd also to pay Ills ex penses while rending law In the saiuetowi:. Soon after his admission to the bar news came of the llrlug on Fort Sumter, nud all thoughts of Ills profession were driven from his mind- Most of his neighbors und relatives sided with the Confederacy, but young Seny Joined the Union iinny. For four years he fought valiantly on many battlefields, miiiuhed with Sherman to the sea, und was mustered out u colonel. He returned to Steelvlllu und began the practice of law. winning In his profession the same hucci-s he hud achieved in the army. He was successively county at torney und circuit attorney, and from 1873 to 1837 he was circuit judge. AtllCAIIAM J, BK.VY. Governor Sony has long been regarded ns a lender of tho Republican party of his state. When the territory of Oklahoma was orgunUed in May, 1890, ho was ap pointed one of the associate justices of the supreme court, und since then has so won the hearts of the people that they almost unanimously asked for his appointment to thegoveruorsliip.

So much for the pleasures of life in un Egyptian palace under the reign of Khe dive Tewllk The two joiing princes whilu under tho care of Mr. llutler were among the dally atteiidatits of the All scIkmiI, founded by their father nud situated on the Alsleeii square, just opposite the Alsleon unlace. Among thelrscjiisilmutes wero some eighty or a hundred other boys, sous of princes und pashas. Although Intended only for thu children of the rich, thu education at this school was entirely gratuitous, tho Into khedivc providing for everything,. Includ ing tuition, the natty military uniforms nud a very luxurious table. Ily the com mands of his highness, absolute equality prevailed among all the pupils, his sons being treated exactly like the other Isiys, nnd no one Isdng permitted within Its pre cincts to address them either us prince or highness. They were full of fun nnd inerilnient in those days, and most amusingly demure on state oc casions. Moreover, they were devoted to their father, and nothing could Is.- more touching than the nlfculou displayed in n couple of letters which they wrote to him while traveling In upper Kgypt, and which ho gave me to lead. I may add that they were written in Knglisli, and commenced, "My dear, dear papa." In 1881, the question arose of sending them to complete their education at some scholustlu institution in Kurope. Natu rally the khedive's Kuglish friends 1 1 rued him to place the boys at Harrow, where the Duke or lienoa, brother or (jueeii Mar guerite of Italy, had been educated. The French, on the other hand, Insisted that they would bo far better ut some Parisian lycee such as St. I tar be, where King Milan of Seryia nud many of tho Hourbou princes had received their training, while Tewflk's Italian acquaintances clamored that the bojs should be sent to some Milanese or Padnan college. At length the khedivc, anxious, as usual, to compromise matter)' and to avoid giving olIViisc to one party or the other, detei mined to place his sous at the famous Tlicrosluuitiii military col lege at Vienna, u here his own intimate friend young Choi if I ley had U'cn brought up. Founded by the great Km press Mnria Theresa in the Eighteenth century, the Tlieiesiaiium Is one or the most rei.inrk able institutions of the kind In Kurope. The majority of the pupils are of princely rank, nnd among those who have sat on its iH'iichos have been King Alfonso XII ol Spain and his cousin and rival, Don Carlos, Duke of Madrid. It is tlieie that the two young princes bine spent the last llvi years, the llrst three being passed in th so culled "gyiuniise," or lower school, nud the Inst two In the higher school, which is known as "the Oriental academy. They wore subjected to the s.imo severe military discipline as the other pupils, and it hai only iioou iluring the last few mouths that any exceptional privileges nud exemption.- were uc. orileil to them Knelt summer, us soon as the school closed for the annual holiday, tho two Imys started on n tour, attended by a large suite specially dlspatchyd from Cniio for the purpose or iiccoiiipanylng them, Dur iug the course of these summer tours they have visited Fr.inco, Spain, Poitiignl, Italy, Scandlimvlu, fieriniiiij, Holland, Switzer land, Iti'iiMu and England, It was w hilt ill Loudon that they became much inter t-Meil in und nttruuotl by the merry little Ameilcaii humoiisi, Marshall P.

It was thus that Cuidluul Slum onl exercised so much power In the now famous case of Dr. Kdwurd Mctllynu, As the college of cardinals Is lllled by successive appointments at the hands of successive popes, and as the appointees are generally well advanced In life (for they must llrst have attained to thohlghost locul dignities) It results that most of the car diiialsiit any given time are the appointees of the lust pope or hlslmmedlutesiiccessor Thus In tin- conclave of 18711 there were but nine cimllnals of eteutlou prior to the then K)po, Plus IX, and the oldest of all, Hiliel.'wus ninety and the youngest, Lucleti llotwipiirte, forty-live. There were nliiu teen more than seventy j ears old and only four under llfty. The limit In number Is six cardinal bishops, llfty cardinal priests and fourteen cardinal deacons, or a total of seventy, hut the conclave is very rarely full.
