J in a place of safety, but allowed to

remain on the shelves of a country library, in danger of being destroyed. An Armisinc IiKidcnt. .P'a'rwin of Prince Ijbanoff re-

m;nds me or an amusing incident

connected with his activity as foreign minister. Ik had been ap-

! pointed to the pot by Nicholas II

after the dath of M. de ;ier. and the choice had been gnf rally approed. Ibanoff had a great reputation, had been a success in London a.s well as in Vienna and i rt Constantinople, arid was perhaps at the time that he took in hand the direction f the foreign affairs in Kusia the last grand seigneur of the old school left in the diplomatic service of his country. He was supposed to have a keen knowle.dt;e of the eastern question, which at the time l am writing about was rather entangled, in view of the strained relations existing between the cabinet ut St. Petersburg and the Bulgarian government. Prince Fernlnand of Coburg was supposed to b in disgrace with the czar, which did not help to smoothe the many ditficulties which were everlastingly cropping up. Now Lohanoff was supposed to be an essentially tactful man. and one who liked to live at peace with everybody. One of the friends and confidants of old Princess Clementine of Orleans, the ' mother of Prince T-'erdinand. who had heard him once say in Vienna that If only the latter would consent to have his son baptized in the (Ireek faith things might be rendered easier for the future, both of the Bulgarian sovereign and of his country, discussed the matter with the princess, and then hearing that the Ftussian statesman was in Paris, bethought himself of conferring with hirn on the subject. This was in the autumn of 1S9.". I was also then in the French capital, where was also staying one of my great friends. Gen. Tcherewine. then head of the Okhrana or personal police guard of the czar. We went one. evening to dine at the Cafe Anglais, which still existed, and when we entered it we saw sitting in a corner more absorbed in each other's conversation than in the excellent meal they were eating Prince Lohanoff and Count X . The former started slightly when he saw us, but the general also was not wan ti rig in tact. because he merely bowed to the two men and took rne to a table as far from theirs a possible, remarking as he did so. "We must not disturb this interesting conversation." He then proceeded to. tell me that he felt sure it had to do with the impending conversation of little Prince Jloris of Bulgaria. To my surprise question as to what could have made him think of such a thing, he repeated to me what I hae just now quoted concerning IiObanofT's remark in Vienna, which somehow had reached his knowledge, adding that we would very probably soon see the results of the interview to which we were unwilling witness. 3. A month or two later, Tcherewine seeing the prince in St. Petersburg enter the opera, to the Iatter's disgust accosted him with the remark, "Tiens le parraln de Boris" ("Here comes Roris godfather"). Lohanoff started, asking with evident annoyance, "What do you mean?" "You know very well," was the reply, "are you going yourvdf to Sofia for the ceremony or wi'.. j uu send a proxy?" "You are always joking." rttortcd the foreign minister, who hasened to his seat with the evident dsire to get rid of Iiis interlocutor. The PLan i'ails. Tlie incident, of course, had been oerheard, which was probably what the man who had raised it wished, and people began to discuss in St. Petrsburg the possibility of a reconciliation between the Bulgarian government and that of the czar, which, during the lifetime ot Alexander III. had seemed an almost hopeless thing. Prince lohanoff. however, was not at all glad to find the subject of his secret work become the food for common gossip and never could understand how it had come to be discovered

by Cen. Tcherewine. whom he knew

very well would be opposed to it for reasons of his own. The general, howfver. died a few wt-eks later. rather suddenly and unexpectedly, and LobanotY had it all his own way. But he did not obtain what he had hoped he would, the approval of th" Slavophil parties in Kussia to his policy. These failed to see the advantages of a reconciliation between Kussia and a Koman Catholic prince. whoe conduct a;peared to them to be subject to much caution. Subsequent events have proved that they were riuht in their apprehensions, and LobanoU wrong. The latter va. credited with having in his private possessions many compromising documents for Prince IYruir.and of Coburg, and the lat-

Jter's double dealing in regard to 'U.th Kussia anil Austria, which he had c.trefullv put aside amonr his . other papers and not given up to ' the archivt of the Kassian foreign loltUe. I Probably they hu e been ilestroM.i together with the other precious Icolle-tion of autographs belonging

t the prince, and one can only lament the accident which has thus robbed tip' world of sources of i'

formation relative to contemporary j history. -Ahich it will be difficult, if I not quite impossible, to rep!., re.

Unofficial Prediction That if Spring Maintains Same Ratio, Next Harvest Will be Plentiful.

WASHINGTON. April . Forecast by the department of agriculture today of a winter wheat crop of S6U.0O0.000 bushels this year brought optimism to the food administration and the prediction was unofficially made that if the spring wheat crop maintained the same ratio the next harvest wiH furnish sufikient wheat to take care of the needs of this countrv and the allies next year. Today's forecast indicates an increase of 142,UOö,0Uü bushels of winter w heat over last year's winter crop. which was 418,000,000 bushels. Assuming the spring crop will ield the same ratio of increase there will be a total crop of S'),000,000 or an increase of about l'00,000,000 bushels over last year when the entire r-rop was estimated . at 0Ü1, 000,000. Hjp Crop soaring. In addition there is an increase, of 26,000.000 bushels in the prospective rye crop or a total prospective increase over last year of about ':2, 000. 000 bushels of bread grains. There is also hope of an increase of one hundred million bushels of wheat over last year in (ireat Uritain and France and also an increase in Canada. The necessity of rigorous iaving between now and harvest is, however, in no way relaxed by harvest prospects, the public is warned.

It has been said that "A striking picture is better, than a thousand words." Here is a picture that is better than a whole dictionary in enabling you to get at a glance the fact that the Franklin Car is easy to move and hence, requires less fuel to move it This is an actual picture of the little daughter of W. J. Doughty of Detroit, pulling a Franklin Touring Car several blocks on a level stretch with her skipping rope, to show why the Franklin goes farthest on a gallon of gasoline. The whole secret is in Franklin Easy-Rolling one, big, fundamental reason behind the fact that sales of Franklin Scientific Light Weight Cars increased last year .135, against the 12 increase of all other fine cars. Easy-Rolling means minimized friction and where there is little friction, less power is required to move a car. The Franklin is scientifically free from excess friction, drag and weight; it converts into sheer driving energy every ounce of power that the heavy car wastes in dragging 1500 pounds unnecessary weight.

It is a fact that the Franklin, on the same amount of initial power will coast farther than any car in the country a direct result of its Scientific Light Weight, its Flexible Construction, its Balance and Resiliency. That is why Franklin Cars deliver 20 miles to the gallon of Gasoline, instead of 10. 10,000 miles to the set of tires instead of 5,000. This easy-rolling, light weight construction explains the Franklin qualities of easy handling of instant responsiveness. It answers to the throttle quickly, speeds up easily and takes brake-application just as quickly. Easy Rolling Means Easy Control Light weight naturally means easy steering. Moreover, the caster-action front wheels and reversible steering gear allow the Franklin to keep in the course without tugging and to right itself without effort in taking corners. This quick-response, easy handling quality indicates why the Franklin can travel long distances, frequently necessary- in these times, without strain on its passengers and with minimum wear on itself and its tires.

Cold Weather Starting Easy! Electric Primer makes low grade gasoline act like old time high-test grade. Spark plugs stay clean Raw gasoline in cylinders prevented. Positive Ignition. "Feeble" Battery trouble obviated. In starting, the Franklin owner cuts in the buzzer on his Master Vibrator an gets a tat, hot spark that fires the mixture. Quick Response to Starter. Starting device has vigorous action; battery has big reserve. No hesitation in the Franklin when you switch on the starter. Tire Mileage! Franklin Light Weight and Flexibility always produced remarkable tire-mileage. 33 x 4 inch cord tires now on all types assures even greater tire-reliability

Proof Within Your Reach Th .re is one thing that sticks out all over the motor car situation today. That is, a car must either be economically in tune with the times, or else pretend to be, by talking about it. The difference is only discernible when you know the facts. 1 Franklin Facts are actual, tangible things, open to your inspection short, straight and to the point. Drop in the Franklin Sales Room and get those facts. Examine carefully the FRANKLIN CAR of TOD A Y and the latest Features which indicate the "Ahead-of-the Times" Franklin policy. Features that appeal to the thinking motorist for every one of them is a positive step toward the goal of motoring perfection.

Franklin retains responsiveness of a well-worked in car, even after considerable running. Intake Yoke Heater. Quick warming up of mixture assured by using exhaust ga.e.
