The profession of the royal pretender la very ni'teli overdone In Europe just iw, A Madrid editor has found six men who think they have claims to the ' I'oivii of France, besides uny number i ho think that they have paramount rights to the throne of Spain, and tho purple of small Italian principalities. Tho most interesting of the Spanish pietcnders Is not Don Carlos, but a nun whose name Is seldom mentioned 1'iitslde of tho Iberian peninsula. He Is tho l)uko of Medina-Cell, chief defender if the faith, fourteen-fold grandee of Spain, first of all Castillnn knights, and direct descendant of Ferdinand and Isabella. For him and his family the race or Uourbon-Anjou, who now rule Spain, nre nothing more than usurpers. As often as a new King of Spain Is crowned, the 'Jilted herald uppears in tho palace, una, In the presence ot all the grandees or Spain, protests In tho name of his lord against thli usurpa tion, sets forth the claim of tho Medina Cells to the throne, and challenges ev ery knight who may venture to dispute tho legitimacy of the duke's rights to defend his opinion In n duel to tho death, "on the mountain or on the plain, by day or by night." As no grnndeo of Spain hua ever seen lit to take tho duke and his henrld ser iously, the head of the house of Mo-dlna-Cell has been loft free to spend the Inpomo from his enormous foitunu on Ills fads and to make perennial tours to his numerous estates. It Is said that he can travel from one end of Spain to the other, and sleep every night In one of his own houses. Under thesis circumstances, he has proved a less troublesome pretender than Don Carlos. .This chief of Spanish pretenders was III once so Impoverished Hint, with the help of hla secrctnry, he tried to turn Into coin the Kohl chain of hln Order of the Golden Fleece. By the death of Count 'Chnmbord nntl some luck In mnt rlmony, hwever, ho was eventually en uhled to lay up a fortune ngalnst a rainy day and keep his decorations away from tho Roldsmltlm nnd tho pawnbroker. A group of pretendera who are chronically 'bankrupt allllct tho Italian provinces. At almost any time one niny find In the continental newspa pers brief paragraphs concernlnjr th dllllcultlis which a Count of Aqulla, or Tranl, or Syracuse, Is havlnc with tho sheriffs. A censu3 of pretenders has not been taken. A partial list of thoso who think that they have valid claims to tho throne of Fiance was published recently, however. They are Don Car los; Alfonso XIII. Kins of Spain: Fran cis, sometime klnff of both Sicilies: Francis, Sclmstlon' son by his second wife, an aunt of the dead kins: Hobert once Duke of I'niinu: L.ou.19 Philippe of Orleans. All thecu nentlenicn nre de scendants of Louis XIII of Fiance. The last one to unnounce his pretensions to the world Is General Francis of Uourbon. who suddenly brpan calling himself Duke of Anjou after the Count of Phi In death, and sent out a mani festo concernlim his Halms. This course has beCn rather disastrous to him, for he has been deprived not only of his command In tho Spanish army, but also of tho salary that went with U. .v uimrin. .ii'oush. Ho Wna Anxious to Do Most Any- thing to I'lcnso Ills Wllo. The gait with which ho strode Into the campaign committee room was u very leisurely one. lie took plenty of time to regain his breath before he be gan: "I hear as how your party doesn t expect to do much next election." "Who told you thot7" Inquired the clerk. "A lot of folks." "Well. It's a slander. The prospects of a glorious victory for our long struggle for the right were never more brilliant than they are at present." "You don't say so!" He looked thoughtfully at the chandelier for a few minutes and then exclaimed with a sigh: "Well, I reckon 1 might ns well be goln.' " "Was that nil you wanted to find out?" "Yes, That's all. If I had known prospect.-: were so terrible blight with you, 1 wouldn't of bothered to make the trip." "What are your politics?" "Oh, I Just move along Independent like, votln' sometime one way, some times the other nnd oftentimes not at all." "What did you come here for?" "To please my wife. T tell ye, honest, I'd do most anything fur that woman. She's mighty smart. It's always a wonder to me to think that a woman as smart as she Is didn't be more care ful about how she married." "She married you, didn't she?" said the clerk In a somewhat puzzled tone. "Yes. Put I'm one of those calm, fair-minded people that doesn't Hatter thclrselves. Everybody told her that when she married me she was gottln' one of the laziest men In the state; but she wouldn't believe It. I'd of warned her myself, only I didn't realize then how lazy I was. This mornln' she come out to where I was settln' under the grape arbor an' asked me why I didn't do somethln'. I asked her what she wanted me to do an' she says 'Any thing at all so long as It's something.' So I put out an' come up here." "1 don't see that we have any work for you." "No, but sometimes when a party's chances Is purty bad. there is some ofllces that they can't git nobody to run fur, 'cause there ain't no chance of wlnnln'. An' I thought mebbe If you had some o' them layln' around loose, ye might let me go ahead an' lun fur one Jes' fur the sake of sayln' I'm doln' somethln' an' satisfyln' my wife." Oil Market.

True, you can procure histories of some of the greater and a few of the minor races separately partial records for the most part by various histo rians. True, also, you can' consult the encyclopedias for abstract facts and incidents of various times and countries, though no consecutive or accurate record can thus be obtained except by the student. But in Ridpath's History of the World vou read page after page of the most delightful un-hlstory-like narrative in which is told connectedly the story of man from the original stock, through mry out of the many ethnic branches of the black, the brown and the ruddy races till without effort of memory, you've a clear idea of all the existing branches of the great Human Family as well as the paths they've followed down the1 centuries from the beginning.

Willi a with ered arm, from which the lingers and part of the hand were missing, came up to hlin and asked for alms. The general. Willi a twlnklo In his eye. held out his empty sleovo and said: "You aro better off than I am, for you have your arm lett, while I have lost mine." Thu cripple gazed nt the empty sleeve for a moment, and then extracted 15 cents from tho pocket of his tattered jeans trousers. "Here," ho said, turning to General How ard; "this Is all l'vo got, but you're welcome-to It." Theie was a general laugh at the expense of tho distinguished com mander of tho department of tho east, and he made the man happy by giving him a silver dollar.
