Italy's Queen Establishes One to
Benefit Earthquake Sufferers.
BUSY HIVE OF INDUSTRY.
ArUtoeratlc LadUt and Working Qlrl
Siw 3ldo by Bide Little Princeitei
Make Dolls' Ctothei For Poor Cala
brlan' Children Btoriee of the Dlt
iter. It :1s, Impossible to enumerate the re
Uet committees of nil kinds, each with
n .practical object, Uvhlch have been
formed In Rome for the benefit of the
earthquake sufferers In southern Italy
and Sicily. Queen Helena, who Is per
haps the most useful of all the agen
cies of relief, has had the heavy furni
ture removed from three big roonw of
the royal p'alace, putting in tablef, Hew
ing machines, forty or fifty workbas
kets, chairs and nothing else. Here la
dles of the oldest aristocracy and work
Kirls are gathered together In friendly
Intimacy, cutting out and sewing as
though their lives depended upon fin
ishing. The (iieen Is as busy as the rest ad
vising imd directing, even giving le.--nous
and taking a hand herself. Tlil-t
goes on practically nil day until R
o'clock, when tea Is served for nn hour.
At these dh-ertlsements tlic great lady
and the modest Hewing girl associate
as equals, says a special cable dispatch
from Home to the New York Times.
Indeed, they almost change places In
giving inrtructlon.
Other humble pupils are the royal
children, the I'rluecscs Yolanda nnd
Mafalda, respectively seven and six
years old, who are permitted to be
present. They are established In a cor
ner, delighted, busy and Important,
cutting out nnd making dolls' clothes
for the poor little Calabrlan children.
They have been promised that if thry
do these well they shall soon be pro
moted to making baby clothes. Then
their cup of pride will be full.
The way In which the queen came to
establish this hive of Industry was
quaint. She called a little dressmaker
that her maid patronizes to order some
children' clothes and saw her person
ally. In the midst of the conversation
the dressmaker remarked that It was
difficult to carry out so large an order,
as she had joined a society of bowing
girls, established to devote a certain
number of hours every day tn making
clothes for the refugees, buying the
material out of their own pockets.
The queen was Impressed and In
vited them to the Qulrlual, promising
the material If they would give the
Idea, which was enlarged into the
present organization. The queen Is
right iu her element and was heard
to observe, "If the cause were not so
awful these would be very happy days
for me."
No wonder she was at Messina "our
lady of mercy."
During the sewing in the royal work
room many stories are told about the
earthquake. The little princesses
were particularly interested in follow
ing that of nn old woman, appearing
about 100 years old, who refused to
leave the ruins without her little treas
ure and was so obstinate that she
had to be left to her fate. Another
ease was that of some sailor who
heard a queer noise under the ltiltis,
evidently coming from something hu
man. So they dug on and found a
woman and child in a .little shed
which had resisted the shock and the
fall of the debris, together with a
cow, which yielded enough "-"k to
keep them both alive. At las: 11 be
came so weak that they could ot lift I
their heads, but they were .... alive
when rescued, having given warmth
to one another.
Several children taken from the rtiliw
on the first day, when hunger was
not ho pressing, cried nnd kicked until
their favorite dolls or toys were found.
One youngster was found still clasping
n Teddy bear in her arms.
Queen Helena In describing some of
the pathetic Incidents of her visit to
nc'glo paid:
"In one sunny street not a single
building remained intact, though the
facjdes of the buildings remained
standing. In these bouses the living
and the dead were ml '.gled. In them
were hundreds of corpses, besides
many Injured persons who were pen
ned In small Rpaccs under the debris
or held down by timbers or stones
that rested upon legs or arms. Yet
upon the standing walls in many
places were cages containing canaries
entirely uninjured, which sang nnd
warbled joyously. The contrast pre
sented was terrible.
"The very day that I saw these ca
naries nnd heard the cries of impris
oned persons uuder the ruins I visited
Messina, where a young woman bereft
of her reason stood upon a heap of
ruins singing and bowing to an au
dience composed of corpses. The wo
man proved to be the singer Gemma
Perugia, who had gone mad from grief
and who imagined, herself at a cafe
chnntant."
Send Them Home at 1.
A new club recently opened on Eu
clid avenue, in Cleveland, O., has a
bouse rule that all members must be
out of the building not later than 1
o'clock and the place closed up at that
hour, excepting, of course, special oc
casions. "And what's the reason for a 1
o'clock closing ordinance?" somebody
asked.
"Reason enough," replied a member
of the bouse committee. "No man has
any Hccmso to be away from his fam
Jy any later than 1 o'clock."
CHINA'S GREAT REFORMER.
Deposed Grand Couneilor Haa Been
Called Empire' Strongest Man.
Yuan 8hl Kal, the great viceroy of
Chill province, who was recently dis
missed from the ofllce of grand coun
cilor and commander in chief of the
Chinese forces, was one of the most
Influential and powerful statesmen in
the Chinese empire.
The reason given for his dismissal
h that he has rheumatism of the leg.
The edict ordered Yuan Shi Kal to
vacate all his offices and to return to
his home, adding, "Thus our clemency
toward him Is manifested."
Yuan Shi Kal has been called the
strongest man In China and was re
garded as much more powerful that
LI Hung Chang was. He Is a thor
oughly practical man and brought
business methods to the administra
tion of the empire. He worked assid
uously for the advancement of the
Middle Kingdom, and his watchword
was that China was capable of ac
complishing just as much as had Ja
pan. He inspired a national patriot
ism which is today doing much to
sweep away middle age superstition
and' rebuild the empire. He has been
a member of the grand council since
1007, and In that year he relinquished
the post of viceroy of Chill, but It
was in tills offleo that he gained the
greatest renown.
Yuan Shi Kal organized un army in
China that astonished foreign military
critics. He succeeded In obliterating
all the popular and caste objection!) to
military service, so that the Hons of
the nobility today are proud to appear
In uniform. He substituted modern
text books for ancient classics, ho com
pelled the abolition of torture and
transformed Peklu from the filthiest
city In the world into a metropolis well
paved and cleanly kept, that compares
favorably with many cities of Europe
and America.
It Is an uncontested fact that Yuan
Shi Kal encouraged and represented
the most progressive Ideas in the cen
tral government. He was director gen
eral of trade nnd international relations
In Korea and Judicial commissioner of
Chill In 1S07. In 1808 he was appoint
ed to the vice presidency of a board
with control of an army corps and In
1800 to the vice presidency of the board
of works. In the same year he was
made acting governor general of Chili.
In December of 1001 he was appoint
ed junior guardian of the heir appar
ent, in 1902 consulting minister to the
council of government nnd In 100:5 pres
ident of the army reorganization council.
Chinese Incense.
Elm bark, cloves, ollbaum, putchuck,
sandalwood dust, garoo, laka, aniseed,
musk, orange peel, galango, dried gin
ger, sapauwood, rheubarb, myrrh, cas
sia and camphor enter Into the com
position of Chinese Incense.
Twelve Inch Gun Shells.
A. shell from a twelve inch gun
makes its flight of nine miles in forty
two seconds.
Dresden China.
The secret in making the finest
porcelain, known as Dresden china,
was discovered 200 years ago by an
apothecary's apprentice who was try
ing to change silver Into gold.
Long Lived Pike.
In HOT a pike captured near Man
b"I:n, Germany, carried a small tablet
ou which in Greek appeared, "I am
the first fish put Into this pond by
Emperor Frederick II., Oct. 3, 12C2."
The carcass weighed 350 pounds.
Saloon Rents In New York.
Of all the high rents paid in New
York city the highest are paid by sa
Ioous, -which are taxed about double
what could be got from any other
business for the same premises.
Dried Horseflesh.
Some hospital physicians arc urging
that horseflesh be more freely used as
being not only cheaper than beef, but
more tender nnd digestible. If dried
and reduced to n powder it becomes
almost tasteless.

Concrete Watering Placet.
It la the opinion of a correspondent
of the Country Gentleman that there
Is an excellent chanco to combine
utility and beauty in the erection of
attractive and permanent watering
places In village streets and along
country roads. The old moss covered
tub, half burled in a bank of ferns
and wild flowers, presents a pic
turesque tappearance no doubt, but in
a short tlmo the hoops of the tub
a
UTILITV AND BEAUTY COMBINED.
give way, the staves fall in, and a
long Interval may elapse before the
watering place is in commission.
The lirsl requisite is, of course, a
supply of running water. Then a
substantial stone foundation should
be laid below the frost line an Iron
supply pipe as well as a waste pipe
being brought up through this foun
dation. On this foundation can be
erected as simple or as elaborate a
design as one may desire. A mold of
rough boards can easily be set up for
any rectangular shape, the boards be
ing held in place by crosswise strips
milled to the upper edges. The boards
tan bo raided as the work goes on.
The Briefest Will.
Trobably the briefest tCFtament was
that of a man who bad often declnred
that he would make his will on a half
sheet of note paper. He cllil as he had
said and wrote "All for mother" on a
bit of paper. The will was signed
"(.'. T." and witnessed by the testator's
two sons. The document was admitted
to probate In due course.
Charmed Fishing Rods.
Filipinos are very superstitious. Of
ten a whole piece of bamboo Is found
In the Islands In which black ants
have made their nest, there being, how
ever, no visible entry. Fishermen al
ways hunt for this peculiar bamboo to
assure themselves of good fishing.
Copenhagen's Deer Park.
Copenhagen has the largest Inclosed
deer park of any city In the world. Its
area is about 4,200 acres.
Flag Colors.
The colors of a flag nre read from
the pole outward. A red, white and
blue flag has therefore the red nest to
the pole. The reverse of this Is the
case with the blue, white and red flag
of Franco, and so on.
Inches and Centimeters.
In the Itevue do llecanique, 51.
Ilaouy points out that while one Inch
equals 2.5309,711 centimeters the ratio
1G0-C3 (equals 2.5306S) can be used for
all practice calculation, It being less
than the hundredth part of 1 per cent
below the true value.
