tomment The truth Is, the Emperor Is displeased at the turn political affairs have taken in Norway, especially as ho Is an admirer of King Oscar and consequently feels It woull be improper for him to visit the Norwegian coast exclusively, an hitherto. During a conference last Monday with Jrince Hohenlohe, the Chancellor, Frelherr Marschall Von Blcberst In, the Minister of Foreign Affair, ami Herr Von Lucanlus, the chief of the Emperor's civil Cabinet, the above points were fully considered and resulted, in the decision to make a coasting trip along the chores of Sweden and to pay a visit to Stockholm, Malmo, Gothenburg and a number of points remarkable for thfir scenery. His Majesty will be. the guest of King Ofcar at Stockholm where various court fetes have been planned 'n his honor. An interesting Incident has just become .known and it is one which will undoubtedly tend to make Emperor Wiiliam more pop--ular among the working classes. In riding to the Temple Hofer Fell on Tuesday to conduct the drill and maneuvers of the Second Regiment of foot guards, his Majesty noticed a laborer with a little crippled boy. The Emperor called to the lalorer and questioned him regarding the boy. As a result his Majesty gave orders for two Hrtiflclal legs to lx made at his expense ' for the boy and directM his physician. Dr. Eeuthold. to look after th lad. A similar kindly action is reported from Kaukehmen, East Prupsia, the beneficiary being a crippled sewlr.g girl.

COST A RICA AT PEACE.
President YKlenlnn Ilend Ills Mrniagc at the Apsembllne: of Congrews. SAX JOSE, Costa Rica. May 11. The national" Congress met to-day in regular session. Contrary to the customs of the country, which are the Fame that prevails in the United States, the President of the republic read his message In person. This action, at a time when the public, exclte'ment incident to the assemblage cf Congress was greatly enhanced by reason of the serious events In Nicaragua, claimed unusual attention and drew a concourse of ' people. President Ygleslas Is a young man with an attractive and commanding pres'ence and he gave to his words puch expression and meaning that he elicited applause that often Interrupted him. He raid the public order was perfect and has been o maintained continuously owing to the law-abiding proclivities of the Costa Itlcans, their dedication to work and their love of a peaceful existence, to the prudent conduct of the different political circles and to the spirit of conciliation and legality in which the government has always "Bought inspiration. Of foreign relations he Mid that the most perfect harmony rules , the friendly relations which Costa Itica cultivates with other nations; that to main- " tain and insure this beneficlent and flatterJnjj situation the government has en- . deavored with earnest solicitude to observe the principles of the law of nations and has ever been ready to requite every demonstration of international courtesy. The President reports in detail to Congress the course of the questions between Nicaragua and England, and concludes as follows: "Since the notice of the ultimatum to the government of Nicaragua the government of Costa Rica, well in- ' formed of the trend of events, gladly offered. giving ear to sentiments of fraternal . sympathy and to prevent more disagreeable confluences to the republic, our sister and friend, to assist in an amicable manner in , the settlement of that painful situation. As a prudent means and one offering an attainmcnt of this end. and at the suggestion of the President of the republic of Honduras, . this government Initiated the idea of the Central American states paying pro rata ' the sum of 15.500 demanded by the English government, thereby securing the evacua- ' tlon of the port and bay of Corinto by t the squadron there lying, and the amicable settlement through diplomatic channels of ' the remaining conditions demanded In the ultimatum. The governments of Honduras and Salvador have accepted these practical ' means of adjustment, and the concurrence ' of the government of Guatemala Is only , awaited, which latter had previously pro- , posed to the other states of Central America the idea of obtaining the delay neces- " sary to establish a legation of that country in Nicaragua, whose purpese 13 to mediate in a friendly way between the parties. This idea of the government of Guatemala : agrees with the thought suggested by the government of Costa Jtlca. and completes it. The government in thus acting becomes the faithful interpreter of the Costa ' Ulean feeling." The executive has been authorized by act ' of Congress to Incur the expense necessary to the friendly mediation in these dltliculties, and in this connection an editorial from La Gaceta. ofliclal, says: "The in- ; terest which all Central America has In saving any of her republics from the consequences of a conflict with other nations . imposes the nonevadable obligation of draining every effort the situation may demand, and. therefore, the government of this republic did not wavr in asking the assistance to which' the act refers, nor 'that high body, in granting it. making itself the interpreter of public opinion." It cannot but be recalled, in view of the noble spirit of the people and government of .Costa Rica, that she was the last Ftate to withdraw from the old republic of Central America. Count nnl Prince Married. NICE, May 11. Count Von Merenburg and Princess Olga Yourlewlskl, eldest daughter, by morganatic marriage, of Czar Alexander II and Frlncesa Dolgoroukl, were married to-day.

Prince George, brother of the bride of to-day, it was feared, would cause political complications. A little later she published a book concerning the deceased Czar, In which she seemed to put forth her son Georg as an eventual pretender to the throne. Under a ukase of the late Czar her children had a right to con- . s'der themselves the legitimate children Of Alexander II. French Aube Killed 1- n AVomnn. FARIS, May 11. The Abbe De Broglie, a brother of the Due De Broglie, was murdered to-day by a woman named Amelot. The Abbe, It appears, had been the confessor of the woman and she seems to have labored under the delusion that he had calumniated her. She called on him and demanded a written retraction of the alleged calumnies. When the Abbe declined to grant her request, she drew a revolver, fired four times at the priest and killed him. She then v.ent to a priest at the Egllse de Carmes. confessed her crime and begged for absolution. Afterwards the woman went to a police office, confessed the murder and was arrested.

"Second Do vou favor a convention being called with a view to such suspension? "Third Do you favor a convention being called without reference to such a suspension?

Shortly after 11 o'clock Buckner, who Is on day duty, was passing the saloon with his wife, when he heard a. disturbance on the insiae and sending his wife on home, he went in. Some of the men realized that he was an officer and all became quiet for a short time. Then the proprietors told all the men to get out, including Buckner. All went out and Buckner was standing Just outside of the door, when Moxley came out and ordered him to move on. Then Hlggins came out and both are said to have assaulted the officer. Just then constables Simpson and Fulz, . who happened to be on the other side of the street, ran over and took a hand in tho affair. The men had taken Buckner's mace from him and the chances are they would have terribly beaten him, but for the timely assistance of the constables. Simpson is the man who worked up the liquor cases against Moxley and Higglns in Broad Rlrple and they appeared to be anxious to get even with him. For some time the fight waxed hot, but finally the officers overcome the men and placed them under arrest. M. A. Patton, William Coon and Carlen Dorsey, who were near by during the fight, were also arrested. Moldcr GoIuk to Cleveland.
