Journeyed There While no one need feel surprised that Emperor William should desire to un dertake the trip to Palestine yet there are many -who regret that his Zion ism should have Jed him to permit his wife to accompany him on the jour ney and among superstitious people much apprehension is felt and express ed in connection with the project For it is a strange peculiarity that hardly any royal couple have ever visited Je rusalem together without being shortly afterward overtaken by misfortune Only recently the visit of the Archduke and Archduchess Charles Louis of Aus tria was followed by the sudden death of the former who as second brother of the Emperor Francis Joseph stood next in the line of succession to the throne and who until that time had enjoyed perfect health Another imperial couple whose pil grimage was followed by still more dis astrous results were the Ciown Prince and Crown Princess of Austria Ti quarrel which culminated in Rudolphs shocking death at Meyerling followed immediately on their return to Vienna from Palestine while the stay in Je rusalem of the Emperor Williams eld est sister Charlotte who was accom panied by her husband Prince Bern hardt of Saxe Meiningen and attended by Baronand Baroness Yon Kotze had as Its natural sequence what is now known at Berlin as the AnoTSymous Letter Scandal in which Princess Charlotte and her husband wflCre so se riously compromised as to render their departure from Berlin necessary while Baron von Kotze himself after fight ing innumerable duels being crippled for life and subjected to imprisonment is now living in retirement with his wife It was likewise just after the tour in the Holy Land of the Grand Duke Ser gius of Russia and his wife that every capital of Europe was ringing with stories of the most incredible brutality and savagery on the part of the Prince to his lovely and popular consort who was compelled to appeal for protection to her brother-in-law the late Czar and Prince Frederic of uncle of the present Empress of Germany died suddenly at Jaffa on his way back from Jerusalem whither he had gone on his bridal trip He left behind him an American widow a daughter of David Lee of New York who had been created by the Austrian -Emperor a Princess of Noer on the occasion of her marriage and who is now the wife of the Prussian Field Marshal Count Waldersee the succes sor of Moltke as chief of the headquar ters staff of the German army These are only a few of the large number of analogous cases that could be cited in this connection But they are sufficient to show that supersti tious people have some grounds for ap prehending misfortune in the event of the Kaiser taking his wife with him to Jerusalem For curiously enough those who make the pilgrimage alone and who leave their wives or their hus bands at home appear to escape the fate that overtakes those royal person ages who neglect this caution and with the exception of Empress Eu genie who lost her throne a few months only after her return from the Holy Land the Emperor of Austria the late Emperor Frederic of Germany the Prince of Wales King Leopold of Belgium the Empress of Austria the Crown Princess of Sweden King Os car the Crown Prince of Italy and Prince Henry of Prussia have all been able to visit Palestine without being overtaken by subsequent misfortune Modern Society Rather Fight than Talk At a roof garden entertainment in New York the other night there was an illustration of Roosevelts popularity and the enthusiastic spirit which pos sesses the people A well known im personator of prominent characters in troduced into his act several military features He appears as General Miles in the celebrated uniform as Admiral Dewey and Colonel Roosevelt dressed in his Kharkee uniform When he ap peared on the platform in this costume Monday night the audience was star tled by a prolonged the war whoop of the Rough Riders which came from a young man who sat at one of the side tables drinking beer with a party of friends and fondling a pair of crutches Everybody arose and looked that way and the war whoop was repeated In less than a minute everybody on the roof knew that a gen uine wounded Rough Rider was in the audience and although he was only a private they made him take the plat form and tried to induce him to make a speech But his tongue was par alyzed and although he might have faced the Spanish batteries without trembling he was frightened half out of his wits by the demonstration of the audience W E Curtis in Chicago Record A Valuable Find Have

castles were used the condition of women must have been a hundred times worse not of the women only who lived in the little farmers huts that disappeared centuries ago they were worse off than the cattle they tended but of the wom en who had the best of it who were the wives of the knights and mistresses of the castles Just imagine the Hud son my dear madam dotted with cas tles a mile or two apart on both banks from Yonkers to Albany every castle on the top of a crag and every owner of a castle at war with all the others and yourself mistress of one of the castles You have plenty of silver ware most likely if your husband is a good xjghter and no dearth of heavy old hand made furniture The slits of win dows are so small that curtains would be of no use and anyhow as there is no glass the rain would soon ruin them You find that the cold stone floors make your joints stiff and you spread some rushes on them Your supply of meat and other eatables de pends upon the success of his lord ships raids You have no woman to associate with but your boorish ser vautSo There is one book in the house a prayer book but you are not able to read it unless you are one of the ad vanced women of the time You would go out Then you must first climb down the crag by a path that is barely passable at the risk of being captured by a neighbor You have a beautiful view and some fine afternoon you go up in the highest tower to watch a lit tle passage at arms on the plain It is something that you take considerable interest in for your husband is in the thick of the fight- He and his men have clashed with Sir Adolphu and his men and your husband may come home laden with plunder or he may come home on a board But you are used to such things You go into your chamber and kneel before the stone crucifix where you spend a great deal of the time Before you have reached the last bead in the string you hear joy ful shouts below The sorrow is not to be in your castle this time but in the next one Milord is safe and there will be fresh meat for a fortnight This feminine view of the middle age castle industry was brought home to me by contrast this morning when a boatman in blue cap and wooden shoes was rowing mo up the river not up the Rhine but up the Moselle which flows into the Rhine here but it an swers the same purpose Half a mile up the Moselle on a moderately high peak of rock stands one of the old cas tles There is nothing ruinous about it it has been put in thorough repair Not only glass in the windows but striped awnings over some of them and rows of potted flowers on every broad window sill and along some of the exposed edges of the cliff Statues in nooks cut in the rock and iron dogs and lions looking ready to growl No precipitous paths but a smooth gravel walk with winding stone steps here and there wherever needed guarded by an iron rail on each side While wo were passing making slow progress against the strong current a man in bright livery came down the steps car rying a bicjTcle down to the road that skirts the river and stood there wait ing A few moments later a lady ap peared at the castle gate not on a milk white steed but in blue bloomers trip ped lightly down the steps took the wheel from her groom mounted it and rode away I hope she was going to the dressmakers to buy a skirt New York Times Not Easily Killed Not long since it was found necessarj to kill a certain vicious elephant and two physicians were appointed execu tioners They fed the beast on aconite concealed In carrots and arsenic sprin kled on buns which it swallowed pleas antly and asked for more Then one medical gefttleonan conceived the bril liant idea of loading a syringe with prussic acid inducing the animal tc open its mouth and squirting the pois on down its throat The elephant con sidered this great sport but the doctoi who was working the syringe took St much interest in the experiment thai he momentarily forgot the deadly prop erties of prussic acid inhaled thf fumes and fell unconscious The oth er physician saved his colleagues life with great difficulty the elephant look ing on sympathetically However af ter it had taken enough
