The French people were full of enthusiasm over the ro mance of the alliance and idolized the beautiful young woman who shared the throne. A brilliant time began for the gayest of all European courts and for many years Eugenie was the most envied and most talked-of wo man in the world. But, not satisfied with her triumphs as a woman she be came possessed with a consuming am bition for political power. Her at tempts to gratify this ambition led to serious and disastrous consequences, disastrous not only for Frante, but lor the ambitious empress. The fall of Sedan, the imprison ment of Napoleon and the siege of Park were followed by the terrible uays of the commune. Eugenie, no longer the idol of her people, made her escape from Paris and France only wi'h great difficulty, under the protection of Dr. Evans, an American dentist, and reached England, a fugi-! tive. without a country and shorn of all her greatness. Only her banished husband and htr only son remained to her. Napoleon died soon there after at Chislehurst and a few years later her beloved son was killed fight ing for the English in South Africa.

A committee of physicians have been collecting date at the various dispen saries and has discovered that half a million persons are treated annually without fees. The reform movement contemplated is that the various med ical organizations of the city will establish a central investigation bureau to co-operate with the charit able organizations in hunting out im posters. Al! applicants for free treat ment will be asked to sign their names, give their addresses and an swer certain questions relative to their income, etc. A record similar to the card index system of the Bureau of Charities will be installed. By referring to this the officials in charge of free dispensaries will be able to tell immediately whether the applicants are worthy. If they have fat bank accounts, or if members of their families are drawing good salar ies, they will be asked to remunerate a physician for his services. Smashes All Records.

"In the long run your neighbors will take you at your true value." said President Angell. . "To appear to be what we realty are is consistent both with modesty and self respect. "One must be brave in meeting every duty. When calls to promote civic "righteousness confront men they lose their self-respect and the respect of others if they don't meet them. "Men admire pluck and are moved by it, but to have force it is not neces sary to be over-demonstrative or spectacular. "Have some positive plans and pur pose of growth and stick to them. Cherish your noble ideals. Try to live up to the best thoughts that come to you in your best moods. Even if some times you fall below them re main thcra again.

Roads, Dealing. With. Question of "Residence To Residence" Checking. CHICAGO. May 5 The Western Passenger Association has taken tip the matter of residence to residence baggage checking. A majority of the roads, members of the association, have declared themselves tenativel in favor of limiting this method of handling baguage. However, opposi tion to the plan has dcvrlped and sub nlan has been considered. The intention of many of the roads is to do awav entirely with the residence- to residence syvtrm. The subplan is to check baggage from a residence in Chicago, for instance to the railroad station at the point of destination in stead of strahl through to the rest deiu-e or hotel to be occupied by the traveler as ran be done at present The Eastern roads have not as yet taken anv action regarding the pres ent method and it is not believed they will! the agitation being confined entirely to roads comprising the Western Association. EDWARD 0LNEY Remarkable Case of Healing Was witnessed yesterday by a resi dent of Astoria. The case in question was the straightening of a youngl man's arm. A complete cure was affected in one treatment, and the young mart on leaving the office of the Jlcaler was almost dumb with surprise and gratification, returning later in the day to tender his heart felt thanks to the Healer, expressing the fact of his not bcjng able to show his appreciation: at the time of the cure out of pure amazement at the (to him) miracle accomplished. The best advice that can be given to any one who is the least skeptical about the power to heal, has proven by thou sands of successful and complete cures by this wonderful man is to call at his office for consultation, -and there arc many in Astoria to whom you can be sent that will willingly and gladly add their evidence to that already claimed and proven. Names of parties healed will not be advertised, but if you come to the office I will give you full particulars. Office:. The Leyde Block No. 598, corner 14th and Commercial streets.
