as nearly all other royal families have
done. The present king, Victor Em

he has done a* navigator and explor

Ing hla royal connection. If the
American punster* and carlraturiKts
ufta him a* a subject It is because no
person of prominence escapes them,
and not because they hold him in
contempt.
This the old queen mother will
»»hii understand, and then she will
withdraw tier object ton. In the mean
lime the duke is coming over again,
and It Is safe to predict that he will
carry his American charmer back
with him as lilh wife, and that one
American heiress will marry a Kuro
pean nobleman and no scandal will
follow the marriage.
A RENT PAYER'S JUBILEE
A few days ago In New York Joseph
Ostcrly and his wife celebrated th.
DOleth anniversary of their tenantry j
of the hons. In which they live, i
Ostorly la seventy eight years of ar >, j
'.ml his wife seventy-two. When they !
'i r. married fifty years ago, they
tented the part of the house which
they have^ occupied contlnoualy since
'h< :t they are the only tenants In
Dial great city who have occupied th
’ am,* t ii,‘ment for half a century and
niv proud of th' lr distinction; and no
less proud of the lad that during all
Ibis time never once failed to pay
i heir rent promptly on the day it was
due,
I he old man Is still hale and hearty
and so is tils good wife. He is sober
and industrious, und works steadily
at his trade, which is that of shoe
maker, lfo has never dissipated, and
tor many years has made It his cus
lorn to drink one glass of whiskey
“'cry Hunday morning, and no more :
I any other time. And he has never
been sick a day in his life. The
couple never tad any children, i n

When they moved Into tlio house;
In 18f.S Die property was worth $5,b00
It was then on a street far on the
outskirts of the city, with only annul
hons..a around It and plenty ofv .can, :
lots on which children played In the
grass. The Dili., house still stands
a* It stood then, but around It have
he.-n luillt large tenement houses
many stories high and the street ts
now u busy hive of humanity. The
property without Improvements hav
ing been made to It, Is now worth
816,000.

three owners Two writer* Tt d, each
leaving ihe property ;o hls son, so
lhat Oslerly Is now paving rent so.-

Altogether he ha* paid In rent during
these llfty years, for a part of the
house lie could have nought complete
for 8 i.Oiht, a total of 87,814, and this
house, without other expenditure*,
made on It than the little required for ,
Incidental repairs, could now be sold
for $15,000.
What a mistake tho old man made! j
It. Instead of renitng when lie started
out In life, he had bought the property
not only would he have paid for tt

parts of the same property, tn the

SOME POLITICAL DOPE
A Dispassionate View of It.
Although Tip' Times Is not snp
porting Mr Watson, It Is not one to
take any stork In the talk about his
telling out to the republican party
for a money consideration, because
his ability to earn money with his
tongue and his pen is such that there
would be not the slightest necessity
for hint to resort to questionable
means to make a few thousund dol
lars Uubltn Times.
A Plausible Explanation.
Those enthusiastic democrats who
cannot sleep nights nor attend to
their business during the day be
cause ,loc Brown refused to break
into s vacation at the behest of his
enemies to shout for Bryan, should
quit poHtics~long enough to join a
Don't Worry Club. Griffin News.

No Harm Was Done Or
Attempted.
Only one conclusion need b e drawn
from the buliet that whistled through
the air in the neighborhood of Saga
more Hill on Saturday and the arrest
there of an Insane man on Monday—
the conclusion that the president is j
well guarded, and that, while exposed j
like other people to the ordinary ac
cidents of life, he is as safe a» he
could be made without inflicting upon
him an amount of surveillance and re- j
straint which he or anybody else of j
like quality and courage would find in-1
tolerable.
It is unfortunate —for the public's j
peace of mind —that th e two episodes j
came so near together, and entpha- j
sized each other, but ther e is not the
slightest evidence that they wer e In |
any way connected and many good I
reasons for the confident assumption j
that they were wholly unrelated. The !
bullet Is sufficiently accounted for by ]
the amount of hunting by more or less ,
careless men that, goes on all over j
I-ong Island at this season of the year. ]
and there is not even an excuse for j
suspecting that the shot was crim-1
inally aimed. Certainly it was not j
fired by the unfortunate Coughlin, for j
Inevitably, If his mania were of the]
homicidal type, there would have,
been no effort on hls part to conceal
i the deed, and lie would have invited
! not eluded, capture.
Homicidal, however, Coughlin's j
j mania is not. according to all the re-1
ports of his talk, in and out of court, j
and he has not e vi ?n imagined a grlev- j
ance against the president. Instead, i
the man only wanted the president's ]
i help in remedying some imaginary '
i wrongs committed by others else
] where, and, while this might easily I
have developed later into antagonism
against the president himself, it had
not done so at the time of his arrest.
The affair therefore jacks practically
all the elements required for making
a sensation, and it should calm rather j
than excite apprehensions, since it
demonstrated the xvatchfulness and
competency of the president's gitardi-:
ans.
It is perhaps a little tn he regretted
that the secret service men did their
work so gently. The average- “crank"
is rarely irrational enough not to
stand in fear of personal castigation,
and a well justified fear of receiving
It if caught prowling in the neighbor
hood of Sagamore Hill would have a
good effect on the whoie troublesome
tribe,—New York Times.
