and all payments by those who can
afford to make them are employed for
the good of the poor of the district.
The duke is a general in the Bavarian
army, and is the brother of the em
press of Austria. In 1874 he married
as his second wife Princess Maria
Josepha of Ilraganza, who assists him
in his charitable work. Ilis eldest
daughter by this second marriage is
Princess Sophie, born in 1ST5. She
has inherited her father's skill, and is
his principal assistant in his work as
an oculist. The duke always enters
his consulting room by seven o'clock
in the morning; and the young prin
cess takes her share in soothing the
sufferers and enters with enthusiasm
into the charitable work. As an ex
ample of the duke's skill, it may be
mentioned that he recently removed a
splinter of iron from the eye of an iron
turner, an operation which had defied
the skill of several other oculists. The
duke is the heir presumptive to the
throne of the palatinate of Bavaria,
as his elder brother, Ludwig, who
married a commoner, has renounced his
right.
PUBLIC SCHOOL GLADIATORS.
Urmine Allrgr-d to lie Out or Fashion,
TVhUe Mnacle Is Worshiped.
rThe "school board boy" is knocking
at the door, and the young gladiators
turned out at Eton, Harrow and Rugby
are rapidly coming, in their favorite
parlance, to be 'nowhere." This is
the opinion of Dr. Mitchell Banks, pro
fessor of anatomy at I'niversity col
lege. Liverpool, and his reason is, says
the London Duily News, that "brains''
in this country have gone out of fash
ion, while "the worship of muscle and
bone have been carried too far." Well
'tine of the f Iwm ' from Which, Ureal
Mo Hate Often to Suffer.
1 While in Africa some years ago Sir
Samuel Baker was engaged in an expe
dition of research which involved many
long and tedious journeys. Having
inuite a stop at one of the native set
; Moments, he at length mude prvpuru
' tious for resuming his travels. Among
i the men whom he had engaged to ac
' company him was one Mahomet, who
: was employed as dragoman,
i Mahomet, Sir Samuel says, who wus
1 a great man, suffered from the same
compluiut to which great men are in
those countries particularly subject;
wherever he went he was attacked with
claimants of relationship; he was over
whelmed with professions of friend
ship from people who claimed to he
connections of some of his family.
Family pride waa Mahomet's weak
point. He yielded if stranger
claimed connection with his anuieut
lineage.
The lady whom he had honored by
an admission to the domestic circles of
the Mahomets was suffering from a
broken arm, and had been left behind
when he started from Egypt. She had
cooked the dinner badly, and tho "gad
dah," or large wooden bowl, hail been
thrown at her bv the naturally in
dignant husband, precisely as be had
thrown the ax at one man and the
basin at another while in our service.
Mahomet met several relatives at
Kassala; one borrowed money of him;
another stole his pipe; the third, who
declared that nothing should separate
them, now that "by the blessing of
God" they had met, determined to ac
company him on our expedition, if Ma
homet would allow him to serve for
love, without wages.
I gave Mahomet some advice upon
this point, reminding him that, al
though the clothes of the party were
worth little, the spoons and forks were
silver; therefore I should hold him re
sponsible for the honesty of his friend, j
lie assured me that Aehmc our quou
rara acquaintance, was so near a rela
tive that he was:
"Mother's brother's cousin's sister's
mother's son? Eh, Mahomet?"
"Yes, sar; that's it"
"Very well, Mahomet; mind he doesn't
! steal the spoons, and thrash him if he
j doesn't do his work!"
I "Yes, sir," replied Mahomet, "he all
same like one brother, he one good
! man, will do his business quietly. If
not master lick him." Youth's Com
panion.

Banks has asked many a proud mother
about her son at some public school,

"Oh, he is doing splendidly, petting on

This means that he is captain of the
school eleven, or has got into the iirr.t

school boat. Never by any chance has
he heard of j the boy's position in his

FOREIGN NOTES OF INTEREST.

The mania for collecting beer-mugs.
an ex-Vaw.ar girl says, according to
tho Xe-.v York World, is an old Vassar ;
cu .torn rediviva. - j
"Xcarly every girl in Vassar, in my '
time." :-hc explained, "had among her

the custom originated I cannot say.
but the frlaw. Iiecr-mug was then con- i
sidervd nn indispensable adjunct to ;
every stylish young woman's education i
litcause it looked 'weird,' I presume. 1
You rvracmlicr at one time the Vassar
craze for pronouncing everything :
weird' from a comic opera to a mid- '
night lunch on pretzels and lemonade.
" 'What u:-.e did the beer glass serve?'
Oh. dozens of uses; we used them to
drink from in our rooms, to keep flow
ers in. to cor.coet the hot lemonade po- j
tions for bad colds, to carry to picnics,
to smuggle ice-cream in and for lots of I
athcr interesting affairs. Of course !
nost of the girls bought their beer- ,
-nug;., but the girl who was so fortun- !
ate o to have one given her by a mas- 1
culinc admirer one who was a trifle'
wild preferred was
consequence among her mates. One
fortunate girl, I remember, had a
'Black Jack' from Heidelberg, with
heavy old silver mountings. Mhe was
the most envied girl in college.
"I confess to attaching some senti
mentality to my beer-mug," concluded
the ex-Vassar girl with a deprecatory
laugh. "It is still among my cabinet
treasures at home and is really a high
ly cultured mug, having gone through
four college courses at Vassar with
myself, two younger sisters and a girl
friend. I have often wondered if the
beer-mug fashion still reigns in Vas
sur's classic halls."

Then. is so muchof this great and cost
ly set of plate, says the New York Sun,
that the cubinets contuluing it are
found above mid below stairs, in the
admiral's and ciiptnin's qtiurtcr and in
the wardroom. All the pieces are
large and heavy, the biggest lietng a
huge punch Wvl of great In auty and
design. Every lid In the service is sur
mounted by a'solid gold licur, the sym
bol of Culiforuiu, and the effect of the
bright yellow on the white silver is
very pleasing. Philadelphia did very
MMirly by her ship, now the llugshlp of
Kear Admiral Ghcrardl. This gift is a
great bronxe clock that wou't keep
time; indeed, it wou't go. It hear the
name of a Philadelphia Arm of Jew
elers, who would Iks wise either to put
the thing In order or chisel the firm
name off. This clock is not beautiful.
Its design is artistic, but does not work
out effectively in bronxe.
If the silver 1m-11 that this city is to
give to the new cruiser New York is as
melodious as a silver licll should tie the
gift will be prized. Few know It, but
the Ik-Us that ring out the hours and
half hours-in our white squadron were
the delight of our foreign naval visit
ors here and in Hampton Hoads. All
the hells or. the white ships contain a
prcat deal of silver, aud produce clear,
sweet and extra musical notes. Sir
John O. Hopkins, the llritish vice ad
miral, would stop his own part in a
conversation at any time on his quar
ter deck on the liluke to listen to the
bells of our Yankee ships. He said
that they were the sweetest liells he
had ever heard, and he wished they
had such ones in the llritish navy.
In that navy the tielU go from ship to
ship, as fashions in war change, and
on some ship to-day the bell that rang
out the time for Nelson or for lllake is
tolling away as it did in its hour of
glory. One of Nelson's bell may lie
on the Australia or the Partridge, but
alas! the llritish do not carve the dates
and names of the ships nn their bells,
and so their especial merits are lost.
The old bells are thrown in the dock
yards aud kept there until one is need
ed for a new vessel. They are deep
voiced, gruff bells, whose sound soon
dies out, while the silvery peals of our
bvllscling to the air and reach far out
upon the waters.
William Swan, a waiter, was recent
ly fined twenty dollars for purloining
a sandwitch at a summer resort near
Lorn? Island sound.
The first divorce ever granted to
Indians of full blood and married with
Indian ceremonies has been registered
in Oklahoma territory.
In the early days of Virginia a law
was made punishing with death the
man who killed a hog, goat or sheep.
This was done to provide for the In
crease of these animals.
The sum of five hundred dollars was
offered by a company of llritish chem
ists for a case of gripjie which attacked
any person using their preventive, a
"carbolic ball." The preventive wus
a failure in one cow;, and the sufferer
sued for the five hundred dollars in a
London court, and got it.
A Jersky City jury were considering
