What Will Albert Edward Do With It When
Ho domes to the Throne ?
THE BATTENBERQ DILEMMA.
A Celebrated Dlninoiul 1'nttl's For
tune Muillo's library Other
Foreign Gossip.
John Brown's rooms tit Windsor , have
been kept rigorously closed since his
death , nnd now ( lie queen has hadularpc
brass tablet inserted tn tlic wall , culo-
EizIiiR his qualities , deploring Ids loss ,
and stating the ucvcr-to'b admircd fact
that tlio great man had once occupied
that apartment. It will be interesting to
BOO what the I'rinco of Wales will do ,
when ho comes to the throne , witli some
of this John Drown bric-a-brac ,
Every member of the John Brown fam
ily in reach is now in the queen's service ,
and oven persons whoso connection with
him wis of the slightest description tic-
rive benefit from it. The post of linen
woman at Windsor Is bno of some con
sideration and emolument , and when it
full vacant lately , a former housemaid
was appointed to It over the heads of
many persons more suited to the position.
On Inquiry it turned out that this woman
had formerly been the servant who had
charge of John Brown's rooms. Thcro
was nothing more to say when this be
came known.
The burning question now that court
festivities are about to begin is : What is
to bo done with Henry BattonburgT Will
ho and Beatrice go to state balls ? And
if so , will lie bo kept in his proper place ,
below the ambassadors , with u score erse
so of couples between him and his wife
in the supper procession , and be sent to
the second table with LornoT The Prince
of Wales keeps these two hated
morganatic brothers-in-law In strict ord
er , and ho made them keen in the back
ground at the recent opening of the ex
amination hall for the colleges of
physicians and surgeons.
Electric lights are to bo tried in The
atre Frnncaiso , and it is hoped that tno
receipts during the summer and early
autumn will bo greatly augmented by
the increased comfort of tins arrange-
nrtMit. This theatre was originally
lighed by tallow dips , which wore snuffed
by a man called thp "porte-niouchctto. "
Ninety-live centimes or about nine-
pence a day is the cnorous stipend which
the Sister of Chanty receive in the Paris
foundling hospitals , for their devoted and
untiring care of the unfortunate children.
A strong effort is being made to laiccso
these establishments. The state would
rather pay three frances a day to in
competent lay attendants than ninety
live centimes to a nun.
When the railway collision , by which
eight lives were lost , took place at Monte
Carlo , several sharpers rushed into the
gaming-rooms and tried to create an ex
citement by calling for various players by
name , in or dec that they might capture
the stakes. Their plot failed , for no one
paid any attention , and all the gamesters
went on playing in the most hard-hearted
and unconcerned manner uossiblo.
There are twelve British peers in holy
orders , but the only ono of them .who is a
spiritual peer is Lord Alwyno Compton ,
brother to the marquis of Northampton ,
who has lately become bishop of Ely.
These gentlemen never forego their
worldly titles. They simply put "Kev. "
or "Kigjit Rev. " lirst to sandwich the
"Lord" in safely , and emphasize the fact
that they do not belong to the common
Hock with ungilclcd llecco.
Some of the guests at a recent congrat
ulatory banquet to the 'workingmen
members of Parliament , declined to rise
when the queen's health was drunk. They
were pelted with well-aimed oranges and
fruit Something similar happened in
1508 , when George III. was king. Nearly
2,000 gentlemen wore assembled to cele
brate Mr. FOX'H birthday. The duke of
Norfolk gave the toast : "Our sovereign's
health the majesty of the peopln. " In
consequence of this the king tooh. * ay
the duke's lieutenancy of the West K.if
ing of Yorkshire , and his commission in
the militia.
In August , 1884. the celebrated 457-carat
line white south African diamond arrived
in London. It was purchased by a syn
dicate pf London and Paris diamond mer
chant' ? , who entrusted it to a most skilful
cutter. The man has been at work on it
for eight months , and expects to finish it
during the present month. It is expected
to turn out the most wonderful brilliant
on record , surpassing in weight , color ,
purity and lustre nil crown uinf historical
diamonds of the world. In order to ob
tain the best shape and lustre it will bo
reduced to under 200 carats. The Kon-
imoor weighs only 100 ; the Regent of
France , IDG } ; the Star of.tho South ; 125 :
the Piggott , 8JJ. The great Mogul
weighs 279 , but it is lumpy end only rose
cut. If cut to a brilliant In proper form
it would probably not exceed MO carats.
When the queen is at Windsor.a flag ,
presumably white , on the round tower
announces the fact to the universe. La-
bourhuro complains that this "paltry ,
shabby rag" is not much bigger tlian a
bandana , and the meanest piece of bunt
ing in the kingdom.

Queen Mario-Chrirttitia and the late King
Alphon.su presented a splendid tiara con
sisting of MDJ diamonds of various sizes
and ixty-oiglit pearls , surmounted by
seven great Dear-shaped pearls. Tlio
bridegroom , Don Antonio , gave a pnrtirc
of rubies and diamonds , comprising a
necklet of fifty-two brilliants , a tiara of
seven stars made of seven great rubies
and aSO diamonds , three star pins with
three rubles and 140 diamonds , and an
other pin of nine rubies and diamonds.
The bridegroom' ! parents , the Duke and
Dndirss of Montnensior gave a magnili-
cent collar of 03 ! ) diamonds ami ! J31
pearls , in nine rows from which hung
forty pirnr-shaped pearls as pendants.
: \ Great , curiosity is expressed as to the
state of I'uttl's fortune. Her Welsh can-
tic is cstimntml to bo worth 00,000 , her
diamonds 40,000 , but what her bant ac
count is no ono can conjecture.
The palace of Cintra , which was built
by the Into ox-King Ferdinand of 1'ortu-
8\\ \ on the site of the ancient convent of
in * Lady da Penhu ( the rock ) , is ono of
the most mngnillcent royal residences in
Europe , The ex-king bequeathed it and
its valuable artistic contents to his second
wife , thosinger. Klise Hensler of Boston ,
but slio is likely to lese it , since it forms
more than the ono-third of his estate
which ho could leave to her.
Five o'clock p. in. , "tho hour of the

when the Parisian man to the number of

night , where the duet with the tenor was
so badly done that the audience hissed.
They thought Pntti had shown a lack of
respect for them , and that they should
bo considered by a person who received
15.000 francs. In point of fact , she re
ceived only 10,000 francs. But she was
so badly affected by the hissing that she
sang badly in the last act , and received
further signs of disapproval. Thereupon
she lied from the stage , without stopping
to inform Nicollnl , who was guarding
her dresses and jewels In her dressing-
room , nnd was clad enough to got off to

Miulio always orders for his library GOO
copies , in advance , of all works by
Ouida , Miss Braddon Cand a few otlior
popular authors , and but few of tiny ono
elso's. Poetry is not in demand except
William Morris' , though ho had 1,000 of
Idylls of the king and 1,000 of Enoch
Arden. Biographies nro short-lived ;
Gordon is forgotten. Fronde's "Cnrlylo"
is rarely wanted. Cross' "Georgo Eliot"
is beginning to pall. The Nineteenth
Century and the American illustrated
magazines are the most read in that
line , and 2uO copies are required. Three
thousand copies are kept of eaoh of
George Eliot's novels , and the sumo of
Livingstone's Travels. Two thousand
copies of tlio queen's last book were
purchased , nnd sometimes 1,000 of the
"shilling dreadfuls" are demanded.

Double-Tracks.
Capt. Marsh , of the Street Railway
company , says that the laying of the
track along Seventeenth and Cass streets
is only carrying out the long cherished
intention of the company to double-track
the Twentieth street line from terminus
to terminus. The only parts of the line
which are with but a single track are
from Cumlng street to the northern part
of the line , and from Bnrt and Twen
tieth to the corner of Cass nnd Eigh
teenth streets. These parts will , 'as op
portunity offers , also receive a double
track. Those accommodations will en
able a greater spued to bo maintained on
trips after the line is completed.
The company propose to extend a
double trank on Faruam. west of Jeffer
son , as tar as.Twenty-eightli , as soon as
tlio paviny : of tiio street is commenced.
The cxtcifsion of tiio Farnam street line
is intended to relieve St. Mary's avenue
of the bulk of tlio park business. It is
not knowii along which street the line
will be extended from Fnrnam street to
the park.

tion of ferreting out the whereabouts of

THE BLAOK PEBBLEB.
James Ruddle was seated in n lager
beer saloon one day wondering why ho
did not grow rich. As ho spent his days
smoking , drinking and gambling his
friends did not share his wonder.
Ho wns so lost in thought that ho did
not notice at first the entrance of four
young mon who called for beer and seated
themselves at n table near him.
The young mon wore well but care
lessly drcsscd.oach wore a broad brimmed
hat , short coat , loose trousers and carried
a knapsack and a thick stick , Thnlr well
made but thick boots were covered with
dust , showing that thov had walked a con-
sldoVablo distance. They threw themselves -
solves on the wooden settles and seemed
Inclined to rest.
But nt that moment the door flow open
and n short , stout womemvith a rod face
burst into the room. She had evidently
been engaged at the wash tub ; for the
skirts of her gown were tucked up nnd
carefully drawn through the docket hole ,
while the sleeves were pinned back to her
shoulders , showing a pair of fat red arms
that still bore traces of soap suds that
looked like the foam of the sea on two
huge branches of red coral.
James Ruddle looked up in terror. It
was his wife , Susan.
"So , Mr. Ruddle , " she exclaimed , her
breath coming short and fast , "drinking
again , sir , instead of attending to your
work. You are a nice man tome the
father of a family , ain't ' you , and your
children crying for breadl"
"Well , but , my ddar"
"Don't my dear me' , you brute. There's
that saddle not done that Farmer Van
Wart wants , and then there's that bridle
< lon't you repent that bridlol"
"It's not the first bridal that I've re
pented. "
"I see what you mean , sir. But , what
would you be without a wife ? "
"I don't know , my dear , but I should
llko to try. "
"Ugh , you brutol" cried Mrs. Ruddle.
"Heaven only knows why I married you.
What wiUi your belief in spirits and gob
lins and your driiikfng and dreaming
there's nothing done from morning to
night. "
"Woman , " said Ruddle , losing his tem
per at being touched in his most tender
point , "vou don't know what you are
talking about ; respect the powers as are.
Don't Albortus Magnus toll us "
"Bother Alberlus Magnus ! " exclaimed
Susan. "Who's iic , I'd like to know ?
Some alo-houso companion as drunken
and idle as youraclf , I suppose ! "
"Go ! " cried Rudule. starting anxiously
from his scat ; "you will draw the evil eye
upon you. "
"Evil eye ! " cried Mrs. Ruddle. "I
don't know as things could bo any worse
than they are. Your evil ways will ruin
us all , " and she bounced out of the room.
"I don't know no cviler cyo than yours. "
Thu young men wuro about to make
merry , when the eldest made a sign.
"We are now near our journey's end , "
ho .said said solemnly.
"Tho mountain of Crowncst is close to
us. To-morrow wo must go and look for
the treasure. "
Tno young mon looked rather puzzled ,
but wink from tiio leader made them ask :
"What steps shall wo take next ? "
"My friends , " said the other , "you
shall know all I have studied ; tlio hidden
laws of the ancient Magi and the secret
of the Rosicrncian is as well knowii to
me as the alphabet. I have read Merlin's
book , the great wizard of King Arthur.
I have discovered that there is a cavern
in this mountain hide where some of Ar
thur's brave knights wore Imprisoned.
They possessed a certain kind of blaek
pebble which made them invisible , llioso
black pebbles are what I am hooking.
With them we can enter anywhere and
make a fortune with ba'so.V
Ruddlo was so excite.d at hearing those
words that lie could not keep his seat.
" " ho said "I Jim
"Excuse me , gentlemen , ,
only n poor saddler , but I can guide
you up that mountain , audit there is ono
of those black pebbles to spare I will
take it for pay. "
At lirst tlio young men pretended to de
mur , but at last ono said :
"Oh , you must not think these stones
are to bo gathered like ordinary pebbles.
in the first place they must bo picked up
the first half hour after the sun has
shown his golden rays above the horizon ,
ana tlio finder must avoid all evil in
fluences for twenty-four hours afterwards
or the charm will bo lost for five hun
dred years. "
Ruddle was delighted at the chance of
becoming invisible. He thought how ho
would walk into the banks and holi >
himself to as much money as ho liked.
Why , ho would not only have a caniago
of liis own but a palace to Ijvo in , and
servants and wines at homo instead of
coming to an alehouse. Ho waited till ! 5
o'clock and then awoke his companions
Two of them refused to leave their beds ,
but the others , named Chiudo or Colaor ,
started forth with him. I
They wore soon on their way ui > the
mountain-side. The morning was bitterly
cold and made Ruddlo shiver , but the
others wcro well wrapped up and seemed
to enjoy tlin walk amazingly.
As the morning began to break , James
Ruddlo's excitement and nervousness
became extreme. Ho was constantly
turning to see if the sun's rayd bad , ap-
poaredT and no sooner haYl they done BO
than Ruddlo was hard at work picking
up all Ilia-black pebbles ho could hnd and
thrusting them in bin pockot.
The young mon took matters easier ,
only selecting largo round onus , and , not
being particuliarly careful as to color ,
soon had n good quantity , „
"Hullo ! " cried Claudo.-atlasr , looking
round , "tho half hour has passed' , ' i'lt
will bo useless to gather ariy moroUhis
morning. Whore's that follow Ruddle ? "
"Ho was close by . .you jiiht now , "said
Corlaor ; "ho must have turned back1"
Ruddle clasped his , hands and his heartbeat
boat high with glee , Qoiiltl It bo possible
that ho was invisibleHad , ho found ono
ot die precious stones while his more
companions had missed it ; He deter
mined to try ; so ho walked up to Claude.
"It's no good waiting for him , " said
Corlaer. "I suppose ho thought more of
his breakfast than of all tlio ndvantgc.s
of being invisible. "
"A pretty guide ho Is , " said Claude ,
"to leave us huro without saying a word ,
If I had him Pd break his head witli this
stone. "
As ho spoke he throw n heavy stone
go that Ruddlo had to jump out of its
way.
"Well , we might as well pitch these
useless pebbles away , " said Corlaer , "as
we have not pot the right ones , seeing we
are not invisible. "
They immediately began throwing the
stones and seemed to aim them at poor
Ruddlo. who made yam endeavors to got
out of tno way. Ho was well pelted mid
his bones ached. As they came to a turn
in the road nut ) mot two other young
men to his great delight they did not seem
to sco him , but called out t Claude ami
Corlaer :
"So 1 BOO you have had no luck , "
"Npt a bit , und that wretched fellow
has given us the slip and gone homo , A
nice guide Indeed ! "
"I don't like his looks this morning.
But what were you pelting along the
road * "
"Oh , nothing. Only eccing who could
throw the farthest , "
"I bet I boat you all"
"Donel" said the others , and then there
came such a shower of stones that Rud
dle took to his heels and never stopped
till ho got to his own homo.
Sore us he was , he still felt delighted at
having gained the wondrous charm. Ho
lifted the latch pf his cottage door very
quietly , although he did not expect to
Imd any ono up at that early hour , and
believea himself invisible. But no soon
er had ho closed the door than his wife
sprung upon film , clutched him by the
Imlr and belabored him soundly.
Poor Rnddlo dould not more for aston
ishment , and took his punishment like n
lamb. His only thought was how the
charm could hiwo been lost so suddenly.
When Mmlluddlo let him go ho made
his way straiphHo the nlo-houso.
"So , " crieol Claude , "hero Is our worthy
guide. " i >
" 1 wonder/ the rascal dare show his
faco."said another.
"Considoringi'tho scratched stnto It's
in , so do I , " said Corlaor.
"Gcntlomonsaid , Riddle , "a sad mis
fortune has befallen mo. I found the
stone , but it's nsolessj it's lost its charm.
If you'd treating tobrcaklastl'll toll you
nil about It. " I.
They agreed nnd listened with becom
ing gravity.
When ho had finished Claude said
gravely :
"James Ruddlo , your case Is worse
than you think. Do you remember you
were to avoid all evil influences for
twenty-four hours after finding the
stonon"
"Great Scott ! so it was. And I wa3-
mad enough to go homo to my wife. "
"For COO years now the stones will bo
useless , and you who have caused this
misfortune will only bo spared on certain
conditions. "
Ruddlo grow pale , and his teeth chat
tered so violently that ho could scarce
ly ask what ho was to do to avoid
calamity.
"In the first place you must novdr
mcddlo with spirits again. They will nil
bo antagonistic to you from this time.
Then you must drink no more or thn
evil spirits will have power over you and
lead you to do deeds of crime and mad
ness. You must not stray out late , for at
night tins evil ono is abroad. Trust your
wife , work hard , und j-ou may escape the
curse. "
Ruddlo dropped his beer mug and 'fled
homo. From that time no ono could
have worked harder. Ho bccaina ono of
the richest men in the village. Ho used
to tell his children that the only philoso
pher's stone was industry , for by that all
could bo changed into gold. But ho kept
the black pebbles in his garden and
never forgot the short and painful ex
perience in which ho firmly believed.
