; For the princes of history and tradi
tion have never worn ready-mad;
clothes at 13 the suit They may have
worn a good deal worse material, away
back In the past, but when they did the
fellows who were not princes wore
worse still.
As a matter of fact, however, titles
are not nearly so valuable an a.sset as
Americans who live at a distance from
the countries where tney abuund are
Inclined to suppose. The romantic
story of Princess Helcne Zuludidse,
who Is working as a bricklayer's assist
ant In Odessa, is by no means an un
common one, and a study of the curious
phases of life in Eastern and Centra)
Europe would reveal some astonishing
facta concerning the degradation of
royalty.
In many parts of Europe the father's
title la Inherited by all his children, and
there are said to be many villages In
Austria, Poland and Russia in which all
the peasants are legitimately descended
from some princely ancestor. They are
legally described as "princes" in all of
ficial documents, and on leaving their
homes many of these peasant princes
find themselves greatly handicapped by
the burden of a high-sounding title.
It may at first sight appear strange
that there should be any wish to get
rid of the titles. At a time when a good
many persons in this country are ex
pending effort and money hunting up
ancestral trees and devising coats-of-arms
It would seem that the poor titled
peasants of Europe would be glad to
bare at least their titles to point to
with legitimate pride,
j But the titles often mean starvation,
and when it comes to choosing between
eating and being a prince the selection
Is apt to fall on the former. Unfortu
nately, however, tbey cannot get rid
of the titles, and are driven to the ex
pedient of trying to conceal their exist
ence. In this they are not often suc
cessful, for by the police regulations no
employe can be engaged without show
ing his "papers," In which the rank, age
and occupation are stated.
' The reason that titles prove a handi
cap to the peasant so afflicted Is that
few people are willing to engage a
workman of legally far higher rank
than themselves. Thus the peasant
prince finds himself without a job, and
as often as he secures one the produc
tion of his "papers" is apt to end the

FIRST OF ALL THE EVICTIONS.
Bf aaryars Have a Version of Expulsion
from the Garden.
Among the folklore of the peasantry
of Roumania and some of the adjoin
n Magyar states of eastern Europe
la found the story of the expulsion of
our first parents from the garden of
Eden. It runs thus:
When Adam and Eve fell God sent
Gabriel, the Magyar angel, to turn
them out of Eden as a punishment for
their sin. Gabriel was received most
courteously, food and drink of the
best set before him. Now, Gabriel bad
a kind heart and took pity upon the
poor folk and would not accept tbeir
hospitality, remembering his errand.
So he returned and begged that some
one else be sent to evict the sinners,
as be really could not do it Then
Raphael, the Roumanian angel, was
sent and was received as Gabriel bad
been. He. bowevw, was very fond
of a good dinner and so he sat down
and thoroughly enjoyed himself. The
feast over, be told the erring pair his
errand. They at once began to weep
seat plteously and beg for mercy.
' Tbeir bitter sorrow so touched his
after-dinner heart that he, too, return
ad and asked that someone else be
seat, as he could not possibly turn out
the poor folk after accepting their
hospitality. Then It was that Michael,
the German angel, was sent He was
received as the others by the trembling
pair and treated even more sumptu
ously. He sat down and enjoyed him
self till the last morsel of food had
vanished and there wasn't a drop of
Uqnor left. Then he arose and, turn
tag to his host and hostess, said:
Mew then, out you go, and be quick
beat It" Most plteously did Adam
aai Eve beg at least for time, even
rewinding him that be bad partaken
of their bread. All in vain. Thus It
i that oar first parents were driven
of Eden.

DON'T GET MARRIED,
Never get married." Such is the
ldvlce given to young people by Mrs.
Reuben Nagle, a farmer, of St. Law

enty years. Her husband is about the
ante age,- and for -half a ...century, they

and they went about making the ar
rangements apparently without a paug j
of regret. First, they went to an at-1
torney's office and he drew up the
papers. Next they had deeds prepared
making an equal division of their prop-;
erty. They started out in life with
little, and wound up half a century of
matrimony with about $40,000 invested;
in real estate and securities. This was
amicably divided without the shadow ,
of a difference. The lawyer having
prepared the papers handed them to j
the couple and the husband paid his
fee. Then they walked to the court
house together, filed the papers in the
Recorder's office, and in the corridor
of the building separated without a
display of any emotion whatever.
"Well, good-by," he said, and she re
plied "Good-by." They did not even
shake hands, only the slightest nod as
each went his or her own way.
Their neighbors declare that they
never knew them to quarrel, though
they often had strong differences of
opinion. "In fact," said Mr. Nagle,
"we drifted as naturally into the idea
of separating as we did into matri
mony. We simply decided to live apart
because we weren't happy, and that's
all there Is about it."
Mrs. Nagle has resumed her resi
dence In the old homestead, which she
entered as a bride and has occupied
ever since. It was there that she was
found and questioned as to her views
on marriage, when she declared: 'Nev

GREAT RAILWAY PROJECT.
Proposed Line Will Open Up a Vat
and Rich Country.
With the building of the Denver,
Northwestern and Pacific Railway a
new transcontinental railroad system
will enter Into competition with exist
ing transcontinental lines. The new
railroad will run west and northwest
from Denver to Salt Lake City and will
reduce the time by rail between those
two points ten hours.
David H. Moffat, president of the
First National Bank of Denver, will
build the new road. He has entered
Into an agreement with Senator W. A.
Clark, owner of the San PeJro. I.os An
geles and Salt Lake road, by which the
two roads will connect at Salt Lake
City, thus establishing a through con
nection between Denver and the Pa
cific coast
When it is borne in mind that Mr.
SENATOR CLARK.
Moffat's new road will connect at
Denver with the Rock Island and the
Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy, the
importance of this new connection be
comes apparent.
The Denver, Northwestern and Pa
cific railway will traverse a virgin ter
ritory, from Denver to Salt Lake City,
distance of approximately 500 miles,
being 235 miles less than by the Den
ver and Rio Grande Railway between
Denver and Salt Lake City.
The section through which the road
will go is as large as the State of
Pennsylvania and is rich in minerals,
anthracite coal nod splendid agricul
tural possibilities, and yet it is not
traversed by a single road.
The great territory northwest of
Denver, as yet undeveloped, is greater
in area than the combined areas of Ver
mont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, Connecticut, Delaware
and New Jersey, which have a combin
ed population of about 0,000,000. And
this territory to-day, which is capable
of supporting in luxury tbe miner and
the fanner, tbe agriculturist and the
beef raiser, has a population of only
10,000. It Is claimed by the projector
of tbe road that there Is not a similar
rich territory of equal area in tbe
whole United State without a rail
road. It has been said that a straight line
can be drawn from Cheyenne, Wyo.,
to Park City, Utah, east of Salt Lake
City, for 330 miles without touching a
railroad track. From Hllver Plume,
nfty-foor miles west of Denver, to

Innovations In Journalism are not

Paris of late has been doing a few

distinctly new. The latest Is a Jour

ed for the purpose of disseminating
useful Information among the mendi
cant fraternity, and the price of which
Is 5 cents a copy. At a glance it would
seem as If this charge was rather high,
considering the supposed straitened
means of Its readers, but presumably
the editors know what they are about.
The advertisements furnish Interest
ing reading for beggars temporarily

understand how the advertiser could
expect to receive an answer to the fol
lowing: "Wanted a blind man who can play

money loaned out at Interest His
wealth Is estimated at $50,000, all of
which has been amassed since the civil
war, and which consists principally of
rich farming lands In the vicinity of
the lakes. The nucleus of his fortune
was furnished, however, from savings
accumulated during bondage.
Before the war Jackson was the
slave of Richard H. Stevens, owner of
a plantation of 500 acres near Creve
Coeur Lake. He was made foreman of
the farm In 1802. As such lie had
supervision over about twenty-five men
and women, aud often had charge of
as many as fifteen or twenty teams In
hauling products of the farm to St
Louis to market. He was then a
young man and was married to a wom
an belonging to John Stump, who lived
six miles away. After the war broke
.out Jackson went to Ohio, but while
there wrote to his former master, Mr.
Stevpns, saying that his absence was
necessary and that he would soon re
turn. Coming back after the war Jackson
continued to work for Mr. Stevens
during the day, and at night by moon
light, he used to cut corn for the farm
ers In the neIghtorhood until midnight.
In this way he saved considerable
money. He now owns one tract of 100
acres and another of 170, besides the
sixty Acres which he has recently ac
quired. One of his sons Is a practicing physi
cian In St. Louis; another is a pro
fessor In Lincoln Institute at Jefferson

Little Maine Girl Accomplished.
The State ot Maine has presented a
Juvenile wonder of tbe world, whom
performance Is likely to down tbe hi .
ter which surrounds that of William
Tell aud his brave little son.
Rosa J. Starratt, a black -eyed dnagb
ter of Bath, has been literally shot
Into fame by catching a ballet In het
teeth that was fired at her from a dh
tauce of less than two feet out of I
32-caliber revolver.
But It oil happened and Rosa to aa
to tell It, though It Is an uncomfort
ably thrlllitig Mory to hear.
Rosa is la years old, and she assteu
her mother at light housekeeping wh
she Is not at school.
The Starratts had two boarders, wfci
moved to another part of the town re
cently. Rosa and her 11 year-oW broUier,
Royal, went into the room a few dayi
ago and the boy noticed a revolver eo
the bureau.
Rosa picked up the weapon, saw
that It was loaded, and replaced It, b1
the little brother took It nd moved U
the window to examine It
As they stood, scarcely two feet
apart the boy pulled tbe trigger aad
the self-acting revolver was dis
charged. Tbe bullet entered the right side el
the girl's mouth, cutting a farrow
nearly an inch in length along the tag
of the lower lip and struck the eyi
tooth In tbe Jaw.
Tbe tooth was splintered Into Hot
pieces, while the next tooth was re
moved as smoothly and artistically as
It could have been pulled by the high-"
est priced dentist
Two more teeth were knocked from
the jaw, but not completely severed,
and there the bullet stopped.
For an Instant neither child real tees'
what had happened, and then, with a
cry, the girl ran downstairs.
As the flew along she wrapped be
face, which, from the blaze of the
powder, seemed to her to be ob fire, in
the big apron she wore, and reached
her mother, apparently dangerously
wounded and completely disfigured lof
life. J
A ecar where the bullet entered her
lip and the vacancy caused by the loaa
of the four teeth will remain as per
manent reminders of an accldeaj
which could not be repeated without
fatal results once In a million times.
The bullet Is Battened to a raggvd
piece of metal, showing clearly the
marks of the broken teeth.
But for the remarkable fact that It
struck the Jaw exactly In Hue with
the row of teeth, says the Philadelphia
I'ress. and proceeded along that Una
so accurately that It struck each soe
ceedlng tooth squarely, and so did not
swerve to either side, It must bavs
made a terrible wound.
