The United States is not without its :
royal families, regardless of what pro
hibitive measures congress and the
constitution have provided. The con
quests of 1898 brought us not only
new dominions to administer, but
among other things, a full quota of
royalty as well.
The Island of Mindanao, America's
furthermost frontier, is ruled and gov
erned under the tutorship of American
officials by blue-blooded families boast
ing as old and spotless an ancestral
lineage as any dynasty in the far east. |
These families are Mohammedan in
religion and decidedly oriental in cus
tom, so much so that a comic opera
writer would be in clover of operatic
material could one but live to study
the varied curiosities of the royalty of
Moroland.
A great celebration took place in
Mindanao recently. It was not when
Mrs. Longworth, nee Roosevelt, vis
ited the country and, according to ru
mor, was offered an opportunity of
marriage into the royal household of
the Moros by an over-zealous prince
—a sort of charter membership as it
were—nor was it when the Hon. Wil
liam Jennings Bryan visited the island
paradise and out of pure Moro hos
pitality and respect was made a full
fledged Datto, a rank next below that
of prince.
Zambo, as the Americans say for
short, was in festal attire, mirth and
feasting for the popular Sultan of Ma
guindanao, the ruler of Margosa Tu
big, a principality not unlike Timbuc
too in a great many respects, on the
occasion of his marriage to the
Princess of Cottobato. It was a na
tional affair in Margosa and the cere
mony was consummated in full state
honors. Especial interest was dis
played by the people in this matri
monial event owing to the great
wealth and rank of the princess who
comes from one of the foremost fam
ilies of the Sulu archipelago. The
princess is the widow of the late Dat
to Uto, who greatly harassed the
Spanish authorities in the old days of
strife and turmoil, and she was much
sought after by the leading Dattos
and Sultans of the Moro provinces.
The Wooing of the dashing Sultan of
Maguindanao was finally looked upon
■with favor by the dusky princess and
the wedding was to have taken place
earlier in the year, but according to
their mythology the date set was un
propltious, the fact having been made
known to the royal councillors by a
bird flying past the door of the sul
tanate, and going in the wrong di
rection. Mohammedans have their
full share of superstition and are al
ways prone to its fanciful dictations.
Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood is the big
man in social functions that he is in
matters military, and in order that
the sultan, who, by the way has al
ways borne a friendly air toward
Americans and American government,
might attend his wedding in modern
state, the general gave instructions
that a launch be placed at his dis
posal to transport the bridal party
from Cottobato to Zamboanga, the
ancient capital of Moroland. From
this it must be judged that the sul
tans are minus their methods of water
transportation. They are the owners
of many large and beautifully deco
rated canoes, carved from the most
precious woods in the east. The ca
noes are propelled by slaves, some
having as many as one hundred black,
sleek oarsmen on occasions of state.
But to be able to have a steam vessel
of modern lines in attendance at a
wedding was a thing not enjoyed at
every marriage and because of this
compliment alone the wedding will be
one long remembered among the peo
Cple. It was a proud prince that
brought his bride aboard the tooting,
flag-bedecked government launch.
At the ceremony the bride and
groom appeared in full state robes and
jewels, some of the latter of which
would grace the personage of a more
powerful peer. A wedding ceremony
as performed by Moros takes place
in a large embroidered marque of rich
and costly design, and is an affair
which usually outshines marital cele
brations in more advanced countries.
On one side of the ponderous, silk
en tent sits the bride esconsed. on a
cushion laden throne and with a
cushion in front of her on which rests
her hands. The linger nails are pro
tected with long silver ferrules that
at once suggest the garb of the wild
tribes of South Africa, but Moro roy
alty, on the contrary, is far from be
ing wild.- It is rather enlighttmed in
a great many ways and the pomp and
taste with which they sometimes carry
out their ceremonies is most attrac
tive. The hair of the bride, in which
nestles costly diamonds, and pearls
from the Sulu seas, is dressed in
stylish coiffure, surmounted with a
floral crowjj. Around her are seated
ladies of her court, all in gala attire,
who fan her in turns while the others
dance and kow-tow as the Pandita, or
Mohammedan priest, recites in grave
monosyllables portions of the Koran
and extoles the groom in his duties
towards his wife.
The groom sits serenely silent on a
pile of cushions about 15 feet away
from the bride, surrounded by his
cabinet and full official suite. After
the Pandita has completed his matri
monial lecture to the sultan he leads
him with profound solemnity toward
the bride, and causes him to wave
about her head a long white cloth, re
peating after the Pandita a number of
vows as he makes each successive
turn of the scarf. This, with a few
other minor formalities, completes the
ceremony and then the day is given
over to feasting and merriment, in
which rich and poor alike take part.
According to a belief of the people,
which belief is embodied in the teach
ings of the Koran, the bride must not
put her feet to the ground for a cer
tain time after her marriage and when
she goes into the house of her hus
band, she is carried there by her
guardian or nearest relative. And so
a princess of the royal blood becomes
a bride in this newly acquired, quaint
and distant land of ours.
MANILA, P. I.
TRAINS RUN SLOWLY IN SPAIN.
Traveler Must Be Content with
Eighteen Miles an Hour.
Spain does not facilitate the prog
ress of the traveler. The tourist to
that country must be rich in one thing
which the average American signally
lacks—namely, plenty of time. In
Spain there is no “staying over a
train” to visit a cathedral or a gallery.
The points of interest are widely scat
tered and a day's journey must not
be considered as any hindrance to an
inspection, however cursory, of even
one cathedral.
This difficulty in getting about is
due largely to an execrable train serv
ice. The cars in the south of Spain
are old-fashioned; the roadbeds are
so badly made that the trains rock like
a ship in a heavy sea. The engineers
either cannot of will not drive the en
gines at any rate which an American
would recognize as speed. Eighteen
miles an hour is the Spanish idea of a
lightning express; 15 is regarded as a
working estimate that is good enough
for ordinary purposes.
The Spanish have “all the time
there is,” and see no reason why they
should imperil their lives and wreck
their nerves by hurrying anywhere.
It may be noted, however, that if the
trains are slow they are sure, and for
a train to be behind time practically
is unknown. Women traveling alone;
for instance, need not hesitate to take
a train reaching a given point by ten
at night through fear that it will not
arrive until 11 or afterward. If the
time table announces its arrival for
ten. that train will enter the station
on the minute.

East Second 6treet, Newton, Kansas,
_ will interest the thon

who came back tram
the Civil War suffer

Ely says: “1 contracted
kidney trouble dur
ing the Civil War,
and the occasional
attacks finally de
veloped into a chronic case. At one
time I had to use a crutch and cane
to get about. My back was lame and
weak, and besides the aching, there
was a distressing retention of the
kidney secretions. I was in a bad
way when I began using Doan’s Kid
ney Pills in 1901, but the remedy
cured me, and I have been well ever
since.”

Smokers Shown by Handwriting.
Mr. Saunders, a former schoolmas
ter, told the British house of lords
committee on juvenile smoking that
he could detect smokers by their
handwriting—that of boys who smoked
being a loose, flabby kind. Handwrit
ing, be said, was a cinematograph of
the heart.
Nicotine in Tobacco.
A scientist writes: “The essential
quality for which tobacco is smoked
or chewed lies not really in the leaves
themselves, but is contained in thou
sands of hollow-knSbbed hairs which
cover their surface. The vital nicotine
is garnered in these pearlike balls, but
as it is impossible to shave off these
hairs, and would be a scarcely com
mendable achievement if it could be
undertaken, it becomes necessary to
preserve the whole foliage for com
mercial purposes.’
SORES ON HANDS.
Suffered for a Long Time Without
Relief—Doctor Was Afraid to
Touch Th,em—Cured by
Cuticura.
“For a long time I suffered with
sores on the hands which were itch
ing, painful and disagreeable. I had
three doctors, and derived no benefit
from any of them. One doctor said
he was afraid to touch my hands, so
you must know how bad they were;
another said I never could be cured;
and the third said the sores were
caused by the dipping of my hands
in the water in the dye-house where
I work. I saw in the papers about
the wonderful cures of the Cuticura
Remedies and procured some of the
Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment.
In three days after the application
of the Cuticura Ointment my hands
began to peel and were better. The
soreness disappeared, and they are
now smooth and clean, and I am still
working in the dye-house. Mrs. A, E.
Maurer, 2340 State St., Chicago, 111.,

THIEVING SQUIRREL DRIVEN OFF
Robin* Successfully Defend Nest
Against Marauder.
A pair of robins proved too much
for a marauding squirrel in Independ
ence square yesterday. While on a
midair cruise he suddenly stopped as
though something special had attract
ed his attention, and then he came
down the tree in a slow, unconcerned
manner. The secret was out when
he shyly began the ascent of another
oak, in the branches of which a pair
of the redbreasts had built their nest.
His little eyes glistening and his
whole manner that of a thief, he
moved up the tree trunk, and had al
most reached the little blue eggs in
the nest when the mother bird and
her mate saw him and flew down from
their upper perch. They were on Mr.
Squirrel in an instant, and the fur
flew when their beaks got into action.
The retreat of the squirrel was quick
ly effected. The watchers were
amused. Then a second time the rob
ber advanced, and was so successful
as to get one of the eggs in his paws
before the birds came to the rescue.
The squirrel was nonplussed, as he
couldn’t back down with the egg with
the birds pecking him, and he was
loath to relinquish his hard-won prize.
His hesitation was fatal, though, as
the birds, with a concerted rush, fair
ly shoved him out of the nest, and the
robins followed him so quickly and
furiously that the egg was dropped
and smashed on the ground. The
squirrel then gave up his purloining
expedition.—Philadelphia Record.
A WINNING START.
A Perfectly Digested Breakfast Makes
Nerve Force for the Day.
Everything goes wrong if the break
fast lies in your stomach like a mud
pie. What you eat does harm if you
can't digest it—it turns to poison.
A bright lady teacher found this to
be true, even of an ordinary light
breakfast of eggs and toast. She
says:
“Two years ago I contracted a very
annoying form of indigestion. My
stomach waS in such a condition that
a simple breakfast of fruit, toast and
egg gave me great distress.
“I was slow to believe that trouble
could come from such a simple diet
but finally had to give it up, and
found a great change upon a cup of
hot Postum and Grape-Nuts with
oream, for my morning meal. For
more than a year I have held to this
course and have not suffered except
when injudiciously varying my diet.
“I have been a teacher for several
years and find that my easily digested
breakfast means a saving of nervous
force for the entire day. My gain of
ten pounds, in weight also causes me
to want to testify to the value of
3rape-Nuts.
“Grape-Nuts holds first rank at our
table."

The University of Notre Dame, it ap

duplicated in any other school. It is one
of the old, well-established colleges, with
settled traditions reaching back sixty-four
years, with a distinguished staff of pro
fessors and excellent library and labora
tory equipment. Its discipline is of the
paternal kind—strong without being op
pressive; and as it embraces in its scope
the grammar school, high school and col

potent. Perhaps the most remarkable
feature of the famous Indiana University,
however, is the fact that it has arrived at
its present marvelous development abso

Veterans Rapidly Passing Away.
Veterans of the civil war are dying
now at the rate of 100 a day, accord
ing to records of the United States
pension office. The monthly reports
for several months past havp shown
the death rate among the old soldiers
to be in the neighborhood of 3,000 a
month. Pension office officials who
have watched the figures closely and
know the tendency of the death rate
are of the opinion that the number of
civil war pensioners has reached the
maximum and that hereafter each
succeeding month wiil show a de
crease.

BIG NEW SHOE BUILDING.
It Is Dedicated by the W. L. Douglas
Co. at Brockton.
The dedication a short time ago of
the new administration and jobbing
house building erected by the W. L.
Douglas Shoe Co. as a part of its mam
moth manufacturing plant at Montello
was marked by the thoroughness and
attention to detail characteristic of the
firm in all its undertakings.
The dedicatory program included
open house from 11 a. m. to 8 p. m.
with concert by the Mace Gay orches
tra and the presence of a Boston
caterer to attend to the wishes of all.
The building itself afforded a feast
for the eye, especially the offices,
which are marvels in many ways.
Fifteen thousand invitations were sent
out, including over 11.000 to the re
tail dealers in the United States who
handle the W. L. Douglas Co. shoes,
the others going to shoe manufactur
ers and all allied industries in Brock
ton and vicinity. Mr. Douglas will be
glad to have anybody who is interest
ed call and inspect the new plant, and
says “the latch string Is always out.”
All departments of the plant were
open for inspection, the three factories
as well as the new’ building, and vis
itors were received and escorted
through the industrial maze by ex
Gov. Douglas, assisted by the heads
of the various departments.
Under the present system all shoes
are manufactured to order, and cus
tomers sometimes lose sales waiting
for shoes to arrive. With the new
jobbing house they will be enabled to
have their hurry orders shipped the
same day they are received.
The new building is 260 feet long
and 60 feet wide and two stories in
height. The jobbing department will
occupy the entire lower floor, while the
offices will occupy the second floor.
The jobbing department will carry a
complete stock of men's, boys’, youths’,
misses’ and children’s shoes, slippers,
rubbers and findings equal to any job
bing house in the country. Buyers are
especially invited to come here to
trade, and every effort possible will be
made to suit their convenience. There
■will be a finely appointed sample room
on the second floor, with an office in
which both telephone and telegraph
will be Installed, with operators, both
Western Union and Postal Telegraph
wires to be used. There will also be
arrangements for the receipt and des
patch of mail.
ANYTHING FOR FILTHY LUCRE
Writer’s Cynical Justification of Mean
Piece of Work.
A certain gifted writer of whom It
was once said that he wouldn’t recog

street wrote a charming love story
not so long ago, and it was printed in
a popular magazine. His friends and
all those of the circle in which the
author moved recognized the story as
an exact and recent transcript from
the life of the writer, involving a very
beautiful young woman, also well
known in the same set. One man,
coming across the author, took him to
task for it.
"What in the world did you write
up that affair with Miss Blank for?”
he demanded.
The author looked at him unmoved
and with the same exquisite calm and
clearness that characterized his work,
replied:
