European Notables Who Spend Much Time In Travel Countries That Are the Resorts of Powerful Allens—A Curious Fact About the Reigning Families of Europe. There is hardly a country in Europe that is governed exclusively by men of that nationality. This peculiar state of affairs arises from international marriages, the accidents of war and voluntary'changes of residence by men who are “down on their luck.” M. Waddington, who, though English by birth, rose to be premier of France, is mentioned by the Rochester Herald as a notable example. Another French statesman, Eugene Spuller, bears a German name and was born of lladenese parents. Uambetta, the greatest public man France has had for years, was of Italian parentage, while Napoleon himself was a Corsican. France has in turn given Italy several men of ability and prominence, among them Count de Launay, the famous diplomat, who hated his own land of France with an undying hatred. England has contributed the two admirals named Acton to the Italian cabinet list. On the other hand, among the men with Italian blood serving elsewhere there may be mentioned Caprivi. the chancellor of the German empire. Austria is especially rich in powerful aliens. Its prime minister, Count Taafe, is an Irishman and a member of the British peerage. Frenchmen, Italians and Englishmen are also very plentiful in the Austrian public service. Irishmen are very prominent in Spanish affairs, which accounts for the prevalence of Irish names in the Spanish-Amerieau republics of South America. Queen Christina's secretary is the Condedi Morphi, which but thinly disguises “the good old Irish name of Murphy.” lu England many men of German descent are prominent, among them Mr. Goschen, Raron Henry Worms and Sir Henry DrummondWolff. Sir Ellis Ashmead-Bartlctt is the only American who figures in the list. It is for their wives alone that Europeans come to this country, not for their statesmen. De Giers, the man who guides Russia's destinies, is a German, and Grote, secretary of state, is a Swede. Gen. Melikoff was of Armenian parentage. Almost all nationalities of Europe and quite a few of Asia are represented in the Russian public service. Man}' foreigners are also serving Sweden. But the most curious fact is that numerous members of reigning families are unable to speak the language of the countries over which they rule without a marked foreign accent. King Christian of Denmark and the queen are of German birth and education, and their son. King George of Greece, is also German by birth. There is a faint trace of French in the speech of Sweden's King Oscar, descendant of Marshal Bernadotte. The father of Leopold of Belgium was u German. Even Emperor William, who does not love English habits or the English people, betrays in his speech the English origin of his mother. It is also true that the queen of England was wont to to talk in German with Prince Albert, and even uses that tongue to-day in her family. The German origin of the English royal family is very plain to be observed, and shows the persistence of the Teutonic type.

AN EQUITABLE ARRANGEMENT. GREWSOME INCIDENTS AT SEA.

He Bure an Kuvle<l Name, White She i’oe■eeted Coveted Klchett. The lady was a widow and rich— very rich—as the French novelist says, richissime. The gentleman was a widower, past sixty; extremely, even ridiculously, poor, and the last of a most noble and most historical house. History is full of the achievements of his people. Froissart mentions their exploits in every other page; they were always taking this side or the other, for the king and against the king; when they took a side they meant it; out they marched, they and theirs, in full

anuor.

Whichever side they took, it always ended in their being captured and decapitated for high treason, or else killed in battle. From father to son, from generation to generation, for long centuries none of them ever went out of the world from an inglorious feather bed; it was always from the grassy field of honor or from a scaffold. A gray beard was unknown in that house; nor had any of them ever experienced the tender emotions of a grand father. The lady, besides being a widow and richissime, %vus of ignoble origin, and her late husband had made his money in trade. Reflection upon this point made her unhappy. She was so rich that she thought she ougiit also to be noble, just to correspond. It is a common confusion of thought. She desired, above all thiugs, to connect her riches with an ancient name, and she heard of this old nobleman, and she made a psopositiou to him. “Marry me.” she said. “Give me that right to use your name. In return I will give you as handsome an annuity as you can possibly desire. You shall have the means of living as you please, and of obtaining all that you can desire. I will not ask you to live in my house. You shall live where you please. I

A Naval Offlrer'a Hvlation nf How a Meanniate'a Body Wa« Hurled. “I was nearly seared out of my senses once,” remarked an officer of the United States navy whose name is a synonym for all that is courageous

on land and sea.

There was an immediate demand from the Washington Star reporter for the story and the accommodating officer proceeded with it. * “It happened on the old ship Powhatan," he said, “several years ago. and we were anchored off a West India port. One day a young sailor, a general favorite with officers and crew, fell from a mast and broke his neck, lie was dead when we picked him up, and we at once prepared the body for burial, the ship's carpenter making a wooden coffin, which he nailed together, as there were no screws suitable in his kit. We had expected to take the body ashore, hut the authorities refused permission, and we were forced to a sea burial, and had placed a couple of shot inside the coffin at the foot to sink it. The body lay in state on deck that night, and the next day all hands were tailed to attend the funeral The captain began reading the burial service, very solemnly and with much feeling, for all of us felt the loss of the young fellow keenly. He read along quietly until it was about half through, when all at once there came a fearful rasping, screeching sound from the coffin, and the lid began to rise. The superstitious sailors fled in dismay, the captain's face blanched, the other officers stood irresolute, and I grabbed the wheel and held on to it with all my strength to keep from running clean away. Scared? Why, I was so scared I didn't know where I was. But in a minute we began to realize that the swelling of the decomposing body had forced the nails out and it was their giving way that had made the fearful noise. In a few minutes the

AN INTELLIGENT HORSE. Night Owl Know. Fnou'fh to Seek Shelter Whrn It Rains. A horse which evidently has a fondness for doing odd things daily draws one of the wagons of the American Express company in Cleveland. In color lie is gray. When he is not at work he occupies a large space in the company's barn at the corner of Wood and Hamilton streets. The drivers call him Night Owl because he prowls about the barn at all hours of the night. They say he would pull his neck from his shoulders if they placed a halter on him and tied him in a stall. When driven double to a wagon he becomes angry if the other horse goes ahead of him and tries to kick the driver from t tie scat. 1'or tills reason Night Owi drlvei If t thcr 1 stormy and the wind blows the rain in his face he turns around and travels in the opposite dire •t>>n despite the efforts ol the driver to drive him straight ahead. If the driver leaves him standing iu front of a building which he enters to deliver an express package and stays too long Night Owl becomes impatient and walks away. If lie is not overtaken by the driver or stopped by some person on the street the horse goes to the barn and nods his head for admission. One day when the rain was blowing from all directions and Night Owl was unable to keep it from beating into his eyes lie walked across the street, hauled the driver and wagon up on the sidewalk ami stopped when he found shelter in a stairway and had placed his fore feet on the steps. lie was never known to injure anybody. Shorthand on the BnttletleUI. The statement circulated that the German and Swedish armies were contemplating using shorthand “on the field'’ having been widely ridiculed, a well-known stenographer has written to the Phonetic Journal, giving the gist of a conversation he had iu Berlin with a military shorthand writer. From this interview it is evident that the rumor was well founded. (Ifficers of patrolling detachments have experienced great drawbacks because they could uot quickly enough record their ideas, and just at the moment when very quick writing would be of the utmost importance they have to write longhand, and their report is only very inadequate. It will be an advantage if the officer can jot down a full message in a moment in shorthand and send it off immediately and proceed with his reconnoitering, instead of having to stop to make cumbrous notes in- ionghani^or to trust tu * or J ' ^ * »

A Po'nter to CongreBS.

Clement A. Griscom, president of the ocean steamship company which flies the American flag on its steamers City of Paris and City of New York, has recently returned from Europe and in an interview with the press expresses the opinion that the United States is soon to regain the maritime position it has lost since the enactment of the present shipping and navigation laws. Mr. Griscom is not a defender of those laws, which he evidently regards as being in large degree responsible for the present prostrate condition of distinctively American marine interests. In discussing the ways and means of reasserting our position on the seas he says: “The cost of marine construction is rapidly being lowered here to a point which will make shipbuilding in American yards profitable. I do not mean by this that wages are being reduced, but that the perfection of machinery is lower-

ing the cost of materials.”

No statement could be more accurate or more suggestive as to the lines on which tarifi reform bills should be drawn. It is a conclusive answer to those Senators who, if reports from Washington are to be relied upon, are mutilating the Wilson bill as it passed the House and came from the Senate Finance Subcommittee, in the interest of industries in which the use of new and improved machinery has reduced the cost of raw materials, and the labor cost involved in the manufacture of the product, to a point where protection is no longer needed. If the rates of duties on such machine-made products are to be left as the Senate is said to have determined to leave them the manufacturers favored by them will be in the enjoyment of a larger bonus from the Government than they were receiving when the cost of the material and labor employed in their business

was greater than it is now.

Mr. Griscom practically admits that the high tariffs which have been kept on all ship-building materials by the Republican party have heretofore constituted an obstacle to the development of the American shipbuilding industry. But improvement in machinery, he contends, resulting in reduced cost of ship-building material and the labor cost necessary in the construction of a vessel, has equalized conditions between the shipyards of this country and those of the Clyde. The position is unassailable. It is one which should govern those members of Congress who are determined to oppose any bill which fails to recognize the great difference in conditions worked by the introduction of machinery in nearly all the protected lines,’ and particularly in those lines|,vhieh are now most strenuous in demanding a

and all the manipulation, ur all t.e questions before the people and legislators of this country there is notl - ing more important, in the opinion of The Enquirer, than the silverquestion. So much distress has followed a long continued policy in opposition to silver that the question is practically and thoroughly understood. The plain people have como to understand what has hurt them, and it is to them we appeal especially when we advise a thorough catechising of all candidates for Congress. The plain people are the bulwark of *• }-* o prl 4-«» y >c 'b o \“41 - - J vGIaLa G A a a v .j .

The plain people need plenty of circulating medium. i lie ineu wilcin money who keep money stores, or brokers olfi^es want the currency scarce an 1 dear. They want to be consulted abnit the movement of every crop or v othcr business or farming enterprise, and ■ret their commission out of it. They want to charg i high interest, and to have the money under easy control so that they will not be hurt when break-ups and panics come. The free ami unlimited coinage of silver would give this country a proper per capita circulation, substituu ■ash transactions for credit and render the toilers and producers comparatively independent of the

monev centers.

Free and unlimited coinage of both gold and silver is in the interest of a stable currency. It is the only means >f making a redeemable and inter■hangeablo paper currency.
