The sovereigns who are contending for the mastery are the fourteen-year-old Queen Wilhelmina of Holland and Balinese Rajah, who claims sovereignty over the island of Loinbok, Dutch East Indies. The contest, writes Thomas Parke Gordon in Golden Days, is not as un equal a one as might at first be sup posed; for the youug queen's troops have met with such serious reverses as to cast a gloom over the whole king dom. The queen's birthday was to have been celebrated on a grand scale at The Hague, August 31, but on account of the losses sustained by her troops at Lombok she gave orders to abandon the usual festivities. For over half a century the Dutch have exercised sovereignty over Lom bok, in trying to discipline whose ori ental ruler their troops have met with so disastrous a defeat; but this sov ereignty has been merely nominal, the real ruler being Balinese Uajah. The latter a strict Brahmin has been for some years trying to rid himself entirely of the Dutch influence in his country's affairs, and recently, with this end in view, he tried to secure the support of the British government. That was about four months ago. When he found that his efforts were ineffectual he procured a small flotilla of naval vessels, and made other war like preparations. The Dutch authorities protested against such proceedings, but the rajah paid no attention to them War was then declared and three battalions of the colonial army were sent against him, with artillery, and five men-of-war to support them, to teach the ori ental potentate a lesson. But the Dutch, instead of teaching him a lesson, met with overwhelming defeat, as has been recorded in the cable dispatches which have been received at this writ ing. There had been bloody battles before in the East Indies, but never have Europeans been so badly beaten. Lombok called Tanah Sasak by the natives and Selaprang by the Balinese is an island of the Sunda group, lying east of Java, with the island of Bali intervening. It has an area of about ,098 square miles, which is watered'by numerous small streams, scarcely any of which are navigable, and dotted over with many mountain lakes. There are two mountain ranges, be tween which is a well-watered plain, wholly planted with rice, the hillsides producing coffee and Indian corn. The scenery throughout the island is beau tiful forest-clad mountains and thorny ungles alternating with the rich allu vial plains, which are cultivated liko gardens under an ancient and elaborate system of irrigation. To the naturalist, Lombok is of pe culiar interest as the frontier island of the Australian regions, with its cocka toos and mound-builders and bee-eaters and ground-thrushes. The popula tion is about half a million. There can lie but little doubt as to the outcome of the war. While the rajah may be able to keep off the Dutch fur months and years, sooner or later Wllhehuinu's troops must be victorious. At best, the war can only cause her the loss of that one island, although if all the other Dutch colonies, encour aged by the outcome of the war in Lombok, should link bunds and revolt, their independence would probably re- sult. It is interesting to call attention to the colonies of Holland.

She has just given a Copenhagen jeweler a truly re gal order for a diamond coronet and a necklace of oriental pearls. The coro net, which is to be framed of Greek crosses and worn in the Grecian knot of her hair, will cost two hundred and forty thousand dollars and the necklace will be worth three hundred and forty thousand dollars. Besides the rich jewels that belong of right to the czarina, presents galore are pouring in upon the young empress. The shah of Persia sent her a superb pearl necklace, which has quite a his tory of its own. In reaching the Kus sian capital, says a society tattler, this necklace only returns to its original home. It originally belonged to Cath erine tne Great, who was so fond of it that she used to sleep with it around her neck. But greatly attached to it though she was, Catherine for some reason or other gave it to one of her two OrlofE favor ites, who took it first to Germany and then to Paris with him. In the French capital he met with that extraordinary adventurer, St. Germain, the magician, who went into the best circles, was a great favorite with the king, and, in fact, ruled the court society of the day. This brilliant charlatan, who used to assert that he was over eighteen hun dred years old and had known the Sa viour in Jerusalem, bought this neck lace from OrlofE and sold it to the Per sian envoy. Thus it found its way to the lanr of the lion and the sun, whence it is now returned to the land of the bear. Highest of all in Leavening Power. Latest U. S. Gov't Report AeSOiLU'ffEZtf PURE DAINTY POWDER PUFFS. Cost the Lives of Nearly Twenty Thousand Young Swan Kvery Year. A new count in the indie! ;; en t, against woman in the matter of I:-.1:' craving for plumage ornamentation is found in the way in which it is said the needs of her dressing table are supplied. An English journal warns the Lon don ladies that their powder puffs, those airy necessities of the toilet, are heavy with the blood of slaughtered in nocents. It is stated that as many as twenty thousand young swans cygnets, as they are called are killed every year to supply this dainty fluff, to say noth ing of innumerable young birds of the eider duck and wild goose variety. The bulk of these are imported the swan and goese from the islands of the Baltic and from Norway and Sweden, and the elders from the northern and more icebound seas. One evirnet will make nearly a dozen average-sized "puffs," which shows how many women must be, to a greater or less extent, addicted to the use of pow der. The puff trade is highly profitable, a may be judged from tho fact that the down of cygnet costs a little more than twenty-five cents, the poor creature often being plucked alive ho that it may bear another crop, while the pulis urc sold at from seventy-live cents upward, nicely mounted in bone and blue or pink satin, which ad- uncts amount to comparatively noth ing. The ladies of Paris und Vienna lire the largest consumers of puffs, owing chiefly to their fastidiousness in casting Aside puffs as soon as they lose their pristine delicacy.

One of these is Henry Karns. The other day, early in the morning, he heard his pig, which had reached the proper condition for killing, squealing in such an agonizing way in the pen that he knew something was wrong with it. Karns' first thought was bear, for now and then, even at this late date, bears venture from the dis tant woods to the sleepy towns in that part of the valley and try their skill on pigs and sheep. So Karns took his gun and hurried to the pig pen. But- instead of bears rats were the impudent in vaders of the pig pen and hungry assail ants of the pig. The stye was simply alive with rats. The pig was prostrate on the floor of the pen, and literally covered with this horde of rats, which were squealing, fighting among themselves for vantage ground on the fat porker, and gnash ing and gnawing at the pig's flesh. from his head to his rump. To lire his gun into the swarming rats would be the endangering of the pig, and think ing that a prompt and vigorous attack on the rats would put them to flight, he clubbed his gun and began mauling 1 right and left with it. The pig had plainly made a desperate fight against its assailants, for scores of rats lay dead about the pen. The moment Kurns pitched into the rats those in the outer ranks turned on him. They came at him in such force that he was un able to tight them off, and after a brief attempt to held his ground he turned and fled. Hastening back to the house lie drew the buckshot from his gun aud loaded it with fine shot. Returning to the pen, he gave the great body of rats, shooting along the side of the pig so as not to injure it, the charge of both bar rels. Many of them were swept down before it, but their places were quickly taken by others. Kurns tired five times. The rats that were left still held their ground. The shots had attracted the attention of the neighbors, who ran to the place to see what was going on. This arrival of reinforcements alarmed the rats, and the survivors retreated, scampering away in all directions. The pig was dead. The flesh had been stripped from it clear to the bone in many places. Its eyes had been plucked out, and its heart half eaten in two. A half-bushel basketful of dead rats were taken from the pen. Where the rodents came from so suddenly in such great numbers is not known. None of them lias been seen since. WHIPPED HER DRESSMAKER. ! An Exasperated Customer's Patience Worn Out Justified in Court. A case was recently tried in a jus tice's court in Pittsburgh which, if established as a precedent, will lead to a notable reform, says the Washington Star. One woman employed another to make a dress for her, and in spite of re peated calls and constant protestations that she had nothing to wear that did not make her look like a perfect fright, the dressmaker continued to delay the manufacture of the gown with that calm and superior scorn so many of the class affect. The customer at last grew desperate and in a moment of frenzied anger sailed into the dressmaker and punished her physically in a hair-pulling, face-scratching, hysterical, wom anly way. The assailant was arrested and tried before a justice, who prompt ly dismissed the action. The possibil ity that other courts may follow a similar course in similar cases awakens a glad tune of hope in the heart. When a woman can take out of her dress maker or a man out of his tailor sub stantial repayment of soul for the vex ation and disappointment incident upon the everlasting delay in finishing a dress or a suit the millenium will sure ly be getting close to its place in the calendar.

There is no doubt that both the type writing machine and the phonograph are very Ingenious and useful inven tions, but the chief difilculty with them, says the New York Times, is that they cannot lie made to net auto- maticullv. It Is in order to nil this want that a distinguished inventor, whos name Is for the present with held, Iium invented an automatic writer, and, judging from the private exhibi tion of the machine which was n ntly given in Loudon to a committee of iiicuiImth of the Royal society, it bids fuir to prove the greatest invention of this or any age. In appearance the machine Is said to bu not wholly unlike a typewriting machine. It, however, Is provided with a sort of hotiie-r, in which are placed blocks of typeiiietnl.each one of which is provided with a complete word, In stcud of a sinilit letter.

A few years ago Was "Wee" Hut He Was Also Full of Fight. The Scotch of the present day are patriotic, but not inclined to militarism. The recruiting sergeant goes among starving crofters and idle workmen, but he finds few willing to take the royal shilling and serve their country as sol diers. A writer in the Scotch Review says that this reluctance to enlist, shown by Scotchmen, is due to a craze for personal independence and to a rooted dislike to strict discipline. "We'll no pairt with oor lubertyl" is Sawney's response to the appeal to fol low his country's flag. By way of con trust to this reluctance, the writer tells an incident illustrative of tho martial spirit which animated the youug Scotch recruit of former days. The intended recruit was brought up to the orderly-room for inspection by the commanding ollicerof the regiment. On being measured, be was found to be a trifle under the regimental standard of height. lie was a strong built and likely- looking young fellow, and therefore the colonel relucti.ntly decided that ho could not be accepted. Expressing his regret, he told the recruit that he was too short to be enlisted. O colonel," exclaimed tho excited recruit, "ye'll surely no turn me back! I'm wee, but Tin iri.-foU." ("Wicked" was Scotch for spunky, mettled.) Tin; colonel stretched a point and passed hiin. Slightly Changed. A young Colorado mining engineer, whom we will call Morton (according to llarper'M "Drawer"), was once seated in it chair in a Denver barber shop un dergoing a shave. The talk turned on the ease of a mini who, being on trial for murder, hud been recognized by visitors to the courtroom us a young theologicul student from a middle slate, where he hud been the xmcssor of a sMitess reputation und a totally d liferent iiatne. The conversation thereupon drifted to the subject of changed Identities. Morton's burlier rubbed the razor on tin; strop reflective ly and said: "Yes, it's surprising how many men change) their names after they get out west. Ily the way, Mor ton, what wits your name back east?" "MUtcr Morton," was the quirt reply. An Oxford library has a inmitiscrlpt containing the whole Bible.
