'Claiming Don France, as well as of Spain, Las palvuuized Into llfo' tlie law of expulsion concerning' the -heads of houses of pretenders. That law excludes the Due d'Or- leans as head ot the younger branch of tho Dourbons, Prince Victor as chief of the Napoleonic house, and Don Jaime as claimant of the old Iiourbon or legitimist line. Don Jaime, now duke of Madrid, means business us far as the throne of Spain Is concerned. Though he looks upon his claim to the throne of France as being more historical than practical, still the fact that he has .been proclaimed officially the head of the legitimist line brings him. un der the law of exclusion. The expulsion of his father by Na ateon 111. has no hearing upon the Mt of the present claimant. Hither to it law of expulsion has not been able to keep him out of Spain, whith er ho has gone whenever he pleased. Very different from the old Ilour bons, whoso motto was "no compro mise and no surrender," is this pro gressive prince and popular military "unnn. Even the veteran republican, lUenrl Rochefort, spooks of him ns being very ViUxM-al and entirely of tho twentieth century. SJnco his father's followers have pro riatiotd Don Jaime their chief the Carlists have taken on a new lifo and under exist ing conditions In the penlnsulii ho may soon find himself seated on the throne for which his father and his grandfather vainly took the field. It Is interesting to note In this connec- tlon that Count Urbnln de Mallle. president of the Carllst society of rails, offered a dukedom :to a Boston merchant In consideration of financial aid for the cause, r Of those who have misgivings no one tftands" more In fear und trembling thnn the Dwager Queen Christina. For, while Don 'JUilmo has a qualilled admiration for her post humous son, Alfonso XIII., he has supreme coMwujit for the Intriguing ex-nun who' pre vented his sisters from marrying Austrian archdukes. At lllarritz he has frequently been within speaking distance of his cousin, King .Alfonso, though they have never exchanged words. ' ' f Don Jaime is the hero of a novel, of which U villain Is tho Due d'Albe and tho herolno a w4i-known Washington belle. He Is an offi cer of tho Russian army and lias seen active service la Manchuria. He has tho reputation t)f bolnic well versed In the science of war and of not knowing fear. t lie looks upon the Due d'Orleans as a visionary and speaks of the Napoleonic princes with contempt. The platonlc Orlean Istg, who merely get up banquets and clink glasses, he contrasts with the fighting Carl ists, who have twice taken tho field and are ":ready to do m again. He has more llourbon ; blood In his veins than any man living, for ho :1s a Bourbon from both Bides of the house, his :mother having been Marquerlto, prlnccsse de .Bourbon-l'nrma.

Love and war hayo been his favorite pastimes and both got him Into trouble with his millionaire father. He helped to arm the Carlists of tho Basque country during the Spanish-American war and beeamo estranged from CarloB because the latter would , not strike a blow, lie fell in love with a beautiful, German princess at the court of St. Peters-' burg, but his father frowned upon the mar riage because tho lady belongs to tho Lutheran received me at his home In f StiQ r j bOJIdAJME'd FUTURE EMPRESS CONSORT, PMCEQd HFQMINE OF REUSS the Place du Talals de Bourbon. The famous old legitimist said: "Don Jalmo has censed to bo prince de Bourbon just as Albert lOdward was no longer prince of Wales after lie had become king. When traveling Incognito he Is now tho duke of Madrid. His title among legitimists is King James I. of France. He has not yet selected a title for Spain, but it will probably be Charles VIII., ns bis father ruled over the Basque provinces under the title of Charles VII. Thus lar we have had no coronation, but we have carried out- all the preliminary ceremonies. The central council of legitimists, myself at their head, walked three times around the collln containing the remains of Don Carlos, and three times did we proclaim the tradi tional cry: 'Le rol est mort; vise le roi.' Wo proclaimed Don Jaime, prince de Bourbon, the - successor of that long and Illustrious line of kings who have shed so much luster on France. At this ancient and Interesting cere mony the old Vendean chiefs were represented by the count do Cathelinean. "It will Interest Americana to know," ho continued, "that tho husband of Miss Polk of Tennessee, (loners! the Baron Chnrette, is one of our most illustrious Vcndcnu chiefs, and as brave a royalist as ever stood in shoe-leather. The de Charettcs won undying fame as lead era of the royalists In tho Vendean war of 1797. "Don Jaime, or King James, ns we now call him, wears the order of the Holy Spirit nnd the order of the (lolden Fleece. We nre great symbolists and these orders are emblematic ot his royal Spanish house." "I'pon what do you baso Don Jaime's claim, count?" I asked. "His claim to the throne of France Is based upon the fact that he la a direct descendant of King Louis XIV. In other words, he repre sents the old llourbon or legitimist line. You are aware that the story about the son of Louis XVI. nnd Marie Antoinette having es , caped the prison of the temple and having lived In Holland under the name of "ordorf. and ot his having left heirs is puro-fnvcntlon. "But no one questions the historic claim of our king. His majesty's claim to tho throno of Spain Is based upon the Salic law, Don ' Jalmo Is the fourth claimant. It was In favor ' of the late Queen Isabella, mother bt the In- fniita Kulalie, so well known In America, that, 'King Ferdinand VII. set aside the Salic law, Kulalie nnd her princes and their set hate us because they know we hno right on our si do nnd that we have fought for our own und will light again it necessary. chatsus or raosDORr, austma- JAIMCS PRESENT "Our king's late father. Dom Carlos, ruled over the north of Spain for seven years under the title of Charles VII. Previous claimants have fought for the throne of their ancestors and none of them was a braver or a better equipped soldier than Don Jaime." "What is your flag?" was my next question. "The flag of the Crand Monarch is our flag. Tho Hag which Moated over my chateau in Brittany, where the late Dom Carlos was . banqueted nnd expelled from France .for a speech he made under my roof. Ours la the white flag with the fleursde lys. Sooner than change that banner for the red, white and blue, tho late Count de Chambord, who was our King Henry V., declined the crown of France when offered to him by Marshal Mac Mahon. "Don Jalmo is now at the chateau of Fros dorf In Austria. This was the property of the count de Chambord, or King Henry V. He has left It to Don Jalmo together with the family pictures, documents nnd other papers belong-, lng to tho legitimist succession! In .that old,; Bourbon chateau his plans are mnturlng."' "But, count, Is not the claim to 'tho throne of France somewhat visionary?" I asked. v "Not at all. It Is founded upon right: I believe In the divine rights of kings. The practical aspect of the question is that Don Jalmo will concentrate all his energies upon Spain, lie does not want a civil war and there will bo none. Ho Is too much of a patriot to lead Spaniard against Spaniard. A dynastic crisis Is nt hand In Spain. King Alfonso Is a i8tirper and' cannot last. The son of the Aus trian cunoness and grandson of Queen Isabella has not much Bourbou blood In his veins. The recent ludlgnant explosion was one of out raged patriotism. Old, feudal, romantic Spain craves for a king who will put himself nt the head of the army. King Alfonso wanting to go to the front In Morocco Is like William J.

Don Jalmo will ,U a call and the day thai will find There is in Spain republi cans. 1 have received numerous letters, even from our African pos sessions, all of which end with 'Long live the king.'

Slightly above the middle height, he is dark, Jiaa n nnl.llerlv bearing, an intellectual iuic head, nnd fine Spanish eyes, which at times (lash fire and again are full of melancholy. Tho renort snread last year that he was en gaged to marry Miss Moore, daughter of the late Banker Moore of Kansas city anu or airs Edith Crawford Moore, now of New York What is certain Is that Don Jaime, the 'dash ing officer of the Russian army, fell in love with a beautiful princess, whom he met at the court of St. Petersburg. The empress of Una sla favored the wooing, but Dom Carlos stamped and raged and would have none of It The princess being a member of tho Lutheran church, argued the claimant, would never do for the throno of Spain. Now that Dom Car- los is dead the son renews his suit. The young lady in question belongs to n junior branch of the house of Saxe Coburg. She Is a cousin of the empress of Russia. She Is said to be Prin cess Hermine, daughter of Prince Henri of Reuss. The young lady Is 22 years old and or surpassing oeauty. me dermau emperor also looks' on approvingly and as to the differ ence of religion, love will find a way. BEE FARM ON CITY ROOF. Reading, Pa., has a "bee farm," so situated that 90 per cent, of the people In that part of town even do not know of its presence. To the busy bees all roads seem to lead to this pluce, for they can fly 50 feet up In the air nnd still bo nbl to rfef.ch their home, without coming In contact with humanity. At tho foot of Neverslnk mountain, in the northwest em section of the city, lives Julius Wagner, On tho roof of his house are many bee hives. Under tho window sills are a number of ho'8 leading to a garret room, where there nre ninny more hives nnd where millions of busy little workers come and go day by day, bring ing each time a little honey from some clover field, some tree that Is in bloom or from other sources, thus helping Julius Wagner to con duct the most successful and novel apiary li, Berks county. .' Mr, Wagner made his start In Reading 1 1867 with one hive, according to the Phil; delphla Record. To this he added hive ufU hive trim year to year, until tot-day he lit iie'nily. tw-b-score hives in the little varr room a in the roof and as many more oi, in1 the ivlitntry on the premises of friends. , "::V-:vxr i... .y.vAi wuua ' Marlowe 7 am clad to write my endorse ment of the gtvat remedy, Peruna. 1 do so most hcartily."Julia Marlowe.
