IIORWEGIMI CRUISE OF EMPEROR ENDED Kaiser Has Returned Home Again Brim Full of Strenuous Energy.

Berlin, July 29. Tho Kaiser is with tos again, brimful of the energy that Inraiiably results from his annual Norwegian cruise, which this year has keen more of a . rest and relaxation from all official work than ever before. The company on board this year ias been different in size and composition from the usual party that has lone North with the Kaiser on previous trips. In former times he gathered round him a large and very mixed group of companions, most of them, represntir.g ability and prominence in Industry, commerce, arts and literature. This time he limited his companions to fifteen, mostly military comrades of his early years, with an admiral or two, and the officers of his household nearest to bis person. Still art, if not literature, was represented, for the Intendant, of the Royal' Opera, Count von Hullsen-Haesler, was again on board, and, as always at painter of marine subjects, this time Professor Bohrdt, has accompanied the monarch. On these trips, no strict etiquette is observed save when the Kaiser goesJ ashore on one of the climbing excursions he is fond of, and several of the tder guests are allowed to address their Emperor with "Thou," instead of "You" or "Majesty." At table, only the places right and left of the imperiil host are reserved, and care is .taken that all his guests occupy these in turn. The. Kaiser gets up at six, takes a cold bath, drinks a cup of coffee, and works till nine when there is a general breakfast. Lunch s at one and dinner the chief meal of the day, at eight. The evening is passed with cards or conversation, and at 11:30 everyone turns in. If there is a light in one of the cabins, it is in that of the Kaiser who sometimes spends the midnight hour at his writing table. Unfortunately for the poor Berlinrs, who always seem lost when the Kaiser is away, he will not stay here, for he very shortly rushes away again to Castle, Wilhelm's home, near Caseel, where he will stay for a whota tnonth prior to conducting the annual Kaiser manoeuvres of the army and Davy In December. The rosy prospects, indeed the aljnost wonderful success, of the dia- , mond fields in German South-West Africa in the early days of their explol- ' tation some five, or six years ago, are . gradually losing their magic hue and the success of the fields is becoming i more questionable. The reason is that , the surface of the diamond region, which previously suppled large quantities of the gems, have practically ."been cleared of their rich harvest and deeper mining, with its attendant 'greater cost, must be resorted to. The Colonial Mining Company (Kolonlale Bergbaugesellshaft). which in 4ts Infancy paid the magnificent dividend of 2500 per cent on a capital of rabout $1000, has long ago come down ' in Igkuu Pnptnllin crura Thn Ifnlman. kop Society, which paid 65 per cent, in Its first year and 45 percent in its second, now announces a dividend for Khe half year of 15 per cent. The OerIman Diamond Seciety paid 10 per cent last year and 5 per cent this, while the TliUderltsbucht ' Combined Companies paid no dividend last year. In addition to the need of costlier tnethods - of production : is noted a shortage of labor and a high export tax of .33 1-3 of the gross value. For all this, writers on the subject do not consider that the diamond supply is near exhausted. A feature that surely must distinguish the street car system of Germany from that of any other country Is the practice on the part of a large ..percentage of passengers of giving the conductor a "tip." The average fare jon German street cars, including those of the capital, Is ten pfennings, or two cents; but at a moderate estimate ful(ly one-third of the passengers hand 'the conductor another five pfennings, 'the equivalent of a cent. This is usually done by ladies, though it is common jenough with the men, the idea probably being of securing the support of 'the conductor in case of trouble. That 'the gratuities amount to a considertable sum in the course of a year is 'shown by a trial in Hamburg, arising out of a dispute between the company and one of its conductors, in which the court assumed the gratuities to .amount to nearly $100 each year. The court wisely deduced that the I Income from the tips must be considerable from the fact that very low 'Wages were paid to the conductors In comparison with the motormen. A great sensation has been caused In St. Petersburg by the news that Mme. Krecinska. the famous Polish dancer, who formerly appeared at the Imperial theaters, has been arrested at Cracow on a charge of espionage. By her talent and beauty the dancer won such high favor that she was enabled to exercise great influence in the capital, especially in art circles. It was due to Mme. Krezinska that a Polish committee was formed to erect a statue of Chopin at Warsaw. Some time ago it came to the knowledge of the Russian authorities that secrets appertaining to the national defense were communicated to Japan and Germany. In connection with this affair several officers of the General staff were arrested, but all were able to establish their complete innocence. However, as a result of the inquiry, the authorities obtained information which led to the dancer. She was closely watched. The police swooped down on her house unexpectedly, and documents and letters were seized which are now occupying the attention of the authorities. Some time ago it dawned on the Russian minister of the Interior that the Russian police were not exactly popular and that perhaps the fault of this aras not entirely with the common

News Forecast For Coming Week

Washington, D. C, July 29. A busy week is in prospect for both houses of congress and it is likely that before the week ends the calender will be cleared of several of the important matters now pending and the date fixed for adjournment. The President has canceled all of his out-of-town engagements for the near future and will probably remain in the capital until the. session ends. A Democratic state primary will be held in Mississippi Tuesday for the indorsement of a candidate fcr United States senator and the selection of nominees for all important state offices from governor down.. Chief interest centers in the senatorial contest. Senator Leroy Percy is a candidate for re-election and his irincipal opponent is former governor James K. Vardman. A third aspi ant for the senatorship is C. H. Alexander. A special election takes place n Missouri Tuesday to decide on the proposed issue of $3,500,000 in bo1, ds to build a state capitol to replace the structure destroyed by fire last winter. In accordance with the procUmation of Governor Colquitt the Texas legislature will begin a special session Monday to consider and act upon appropriation measures and the districting of the senatorial and representative districts of the state. Attorneys general from ten states are to meet in St. Louis Friday for the discussion of pending railroad rate litigation. The states to be represented are Oklahoma, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Kentucky, South Dakota, Arkansas. Oregon, Iowa, and Nebraska. The board of food and drug inspection of the department of agriculture will begin a series of hearings in Washington Monday in regards to the ingredients used in the manufacture of beer, ale, porter and Btout. The hearings will mark the beginning of a searching inquiry that the department proposes to make into the entire brewery industry of the United States. An important report will be issued by the Department of Agriculture at noon Wednesday showing the condition of the cotton crop on July 25. Among the most notable conventions of the week will be the annual meeting of the Association Advertising clubs of America, in Boston; the annual convention of the United States league of Local Building and Loan associations in Grand Rapids; the . annual convention of the Knights of Columbus, In Detroit, and the international convention of the Catholic Order of Foresters, in Cleveland. The week promises to be one of interests and activity in many branches of sport and athletics. Followers of the turf will center their attention on the Blue Ribbon meeting at Detroit. For devotees of tennis there will be the preliminaries for the double championships at Chicago and the opening of the National Clay Court Tennis tourney at Omaha. The aviation meet at Toronto promises an interesting event in the field of aronautics. Another sporting event and one of a somewhat unusual character for mid-summer, is also scheduled for Toronto, namely, the opening game in the American tour of the famous Corinthian soccer team of England. On the week's calendar of aquatic sports appear the annual regatta of the Canadian association of Amateur Oarsmen at St. Catherines, the annual regattas of the Great Lakes Power Boat league at Detroit, and the start of the annual cruise of the New York Yacht club.

people. He therefore decided to reform the Czar's police and has now finished the bill which ,is to accomplished this miracle. The bill shows the minister to be a man of considerable common sense whose way of reasoning does him great credit. The bill starts from the basis which must be taken for all Russian reforms in any of the public services namely, that the police are inferior because the pay offers no inducement to first class men. The equivalent of an American chief of city police plus a number of other functions and powers appropriate only to Russia gets only $10 a week while the common copper has to struggle along on $150 a year. The result is that neither the men nor the higher police officials are able to live on their pay, nor in fact do they ever attempt it, for the cost of their uniforms and white gloves more than absorb their salary in all self-respecting towns, but immemorial custom has sanctioned a system of graft which would make even an American police official turn green with envy. The minister proposes to do away with graft in every form and the bill advocates a raise in the pay of all ranks o fthe police ranging from $2,500 to $4,000 for police chiefs down to $300 and $450 a year for policemen. This means an annual increased expenditure of nearly thirteen million dollars. The force is also to be increased in numbers, for while the capitals and many of the larger towns are well policed, vast areas in various parts of Russia, as big sometimes as a Europan principality, are nominally policed by one man and an assistant, while all rural neighborhoods are ridiculously short of representatives of law and order, even in the near neighborhood of big towns. In fact, in all European Russia the police number one man per 5000 total inhabitants, or, If the recently appointed "rural guards" be reckoned on to 2000 inhabitants. A sanguinary free flight between Slova and Roumanians occurred' in the cemetery at Maxobihacs, Hungary, the other day, on the occasion of the con secration of two crucifixes there. The cause of this extraordinary collision is thus stated: Both the Slovak and Roumanian inhabitants of the village decided to erect a crucifix in the cemetery, but as they could not agree regarding some trifling details, the parties resolved to raise two crueiflxee,, which were consecrated simpltaneously. The Slovaks mocked at the cross of the Roumanians and vice versa, and after the sermon of the Roumanian Pope a free fight followed, knives and, later, hayforks being freely used. When the gendarmes succeeded in separating the hostile parties and restoring order 13 persons were lyings in the cemetery seriously wounded. One of the injured died before he could be removed to a hospital. Bob Burdette's Aside. When Bob Burdette was addressing the graduating class of a large eastern college for women, he began bis remarks with the usual salutation, "Young ladies of '97." Then in a horrified aside he added.

In an instant, thirty families, all Italians were swarming panic stricken out of the six-story tenement, pushing and throwing each other about in their mad desire to escape to the street. A policeman who was going toward the house to investigate the barking of a dog was thrown violently to the ground. He got up unhurt and -summoned the reserves who spent an hour restoring order. Licenciato is a Neapolitan living in a Sicilian quarter and his prosperity brought him warning to leave.

MENTAL INFLUENCES. The State of the Mind Has a Direct Effect Upon the Body. A good deal is said in these days about the effect of mind on matter in the way of the cure of disease, but less is heard about mental influences as a cause of bodily ills, yet it is an old truth that the state of mind has a direct effect on the body. The gloom and depression caused by worry and anxiety create a morbid condition of the physical system. It is impossible to feel well physically when the mind and spirits are downcast The blood does not circulate properly, appetite fails, the head aches, and if these morbid conditions continue more deep seated ailments are likely to arise, and cancer may be one of them. With many persons a fit of anger is followed by an attack of indigestion. Excitement destroys the appetite, bad news creates nausea, fright causes faintness. and so on. Violent or depressing emotions always disturb the equilibrium of body and mind alike. This being the case, it is inevitable that when these emotions often recur or become continuous serious physical results will follow. The obvious lesson is, then, tbst mental serenity tends to health is, in fact, an essential element of health and that instead of resorting to mind "cures' after thr? health Is broken it is wise to preserve the serenity as a preventive and safeguard against disease.

HORNETS MIXED IT WITH THE CHINESE Chicago Suburb Has Memorial Hour of Care Fireman Solves Puzzle.

Chicago, July 29. The fire department was called out yesterday to subdue a swarm of hornets which invaded Evanston. For an hour the insects established an impregnable barricade across Orrington avenue. After three hours of suburban ex citement the hornets were conquered with a tank full of gasoline strapped , on the back of Arthur McNeill, a fireman. It was about ten o'clock when the hornets, with the gentle intonation of an army of aeroplanes going at full speed, swooped down on top of the laundry of Jim Lee, 1620 Orrington avenue. Jim was ironing. With the iron still in his hand he stepped out in front to ascertain the caus of the commotion. The hornets, having taken in the peculiarly inviting structure of Jim's oriental costume at one gratified glance, began investment maneuvers. Jim tried to catch the hornets between his hands and choke them. Began to Disrobe. After a while it is supposed he caught one. No one saw him catch it. But hastily dropping the iron, he began to take off his blouse.: In the middle of the process he changed his mind and took off his shoes. This evidently offering little relief, he jumped up and down in the air several times, making weird remarks in the mystic language of the.east. Then, regaining the customary stolidity of his race, he solemnly locked the door of his establishment, replaced the key in the folds of his blouse and started west at a rate which should land him in Pekln by 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. While his retreat ended the matter for Jim, it made no change in the situation or the remainder of the street. Orrington avenue ordinarily Is one of the most pouular traffic ways in Ev anston. but for once it was as immune from traffic as Gault court between the Tiours of 8 and 8. Delivery Boy's Finish. Thomas Curzon, a delivery boy, who tried to pass the rapids, made such a spectacular finish with his wagon against a viaduct pillar three blocks away that other drivers were completely discouraged. The hornets were in undisputed control. This endured for thirty minutes, then the fire department responded with profound eisure to a call. The firemen appeared ready to turn in a verdict of guilty withaut a hearing. Fire Marshal Carl Harrison, who ordinarily occupies the prominent foreground on all professional occasions, remained modestly behind the hose wagon. "I'll fight all the fires that come my way," he explained, "but hornet fighting isan occupation for which I conceived a deep distaste in my early youth." His men, as befits discipline, echoed his sentiments. For fifteen minutes they studied the landscape, then a rash hornet precipitated action by trying to make friends with the marshal. Gasoline Death to Pests. The mahshal issued a call for volunteers. Then there stepped forth from the white faced ranks Arthur McNeil. He saluted and volunteered. He filled an extinguisher tank with gasoline in a nearby store, and, covering his face and hands with mosquito netting, started up a ladder to the whirling swarm. While he was still five feet away he began working the force pump attached to the extinguisher. A thin line of gasoline spurted out upon the hornets, and in thirty seconds nine-tenths of them had dropped to the ground.

Mixed His Poetry. Mixed metaphors, absentmindedness and Inattention have caused many laughable incidents. Teachers in the elementary grades of the public schools especially hear many of these amusing "breaks." One day a bright youth in one of the higher grades of a Kensington school during an elocution period furnished an addition to the long list, lie mixed up two poets with a result that provoked much . laughter in the school. He quoted, or. rather, misquoted, as follows: Oh, woman. In our hours of ease. Uncertain, coy and hard to please; But, seeing; too oft. become familiar with her face, We first endure, then pity, then embrace. Philadelphia Times. A New Case of English Humor. Two southerners were entertaining an Englishman when one of them told the following story: "There was a poor white in our county named Yarrow, whom every one thought flishonest, but who had never been caught stealing. At last he got too bold, and through the testimony of a Mr. Brown he was sent to Jail. Soon after Yarrow served his sentence Mr. Brown was obliged to go to Baltimore and have his eyes operated upon. A much exaggerated account of the operation reached the county and was told to Yarrow. " 'I wish ter gracious,' said that worthy, 'that when the doctor took out that old Brown's eyes he'd dropped 'em on the floor and the cat had got 'em'. " At the conclusion of the story the other southerner laughed heartily, but the Englishman was horrified. "Just think." be said, "of having a cat in the room when such a serious operation was being performed:" Lippincot fa. The Highest Court. When Tom Baguell was justice of the peace at Altaian, the highest incorporated town in the country, standing 12,000 feet above the sea level, he had occasion to fine a disorderly character $10 and costs. The victim of the operation of justice objected to the finding 'of the court and announced that he would take an appeal. "What! Appeal, would you?" asked the astonished court. "You can't come any of that, now. This is the highest court in the United States, and you can't appeal." The Prisoner Escaped. Old colored Joe had for many years been man of all work for the Gordons. When the family moved to another town Joe remained In Reading. Several years later, when Mr. Gordon returned to Reading on business, old Joe heard he was in town and went at once to the home of Mr. Gordon's sister. They were at dinner, and at one of the open windows Joe took his stand, . a pleased grin on his face. After Joe had asked about each member of Mr. Gordon's family Mr. Gordon said. "Where's Harve now, Joe?" Harve was Joe's brother. "He's daid. sun." returned Joe. "A woman in Font Smith allot him." "What -did they do to her?' asked Mr. Gordon. "They put her in the penitentiary foh life. She didn't stay her time out, though," said Joe. "She didn't? Why not?" asked Mr, Gordon. "She daid," said Joe. National Monthly. A Clerical Conundrum.

throat and arms are lovlier," replied the dressmaker, without hesitation. Her shoulders are boceming broader because she takes more exercise and breathes properly, and her throat is becoming more rounded, 'thanks to the low collars in vogue for the last two years.

Now they have been worn for some time and the throats of the wearers have had a chance to regain their . normal smoothness and whiteness.
