PRINCE NAZR ULL All AND SUITE ,ARE TROUBLESOME GUESTS, Women's Evening Drees Shocks Rini— Turned ens Beek on Lady ltiansdeewtke —It Is reltred EON Soldiers nay Run Amuck In London—Beautiful Dorches- ter ;Rouse Zoned Into alt Ordinary Pigsty. London, the greatest metropolis in the world, has been kept in a state of excite- ment for the past three weeks by a semi - savage prince. This individual, Shahzuda Nazr Ullah Khan, is the second son of the Ameer of Afghanistan. The Ameer's country is the most troublesome neighbor of the British Empire of India and the scene of a perpetual struggle between British and Russian representatives. It is believed by many Englishmen that Russian ascendancy in Afghanistan would be a step towards the invasion of India, and that it is absolutely essential to the safety of the latter empire to keep the Russians out of the neighbor- ing State. An English army was once annihilated in Afghanistan and several English ex- peditions have come to grief there. In recent years England seemsi to have been successfui in persuading the Ameer of Afghanistan that England's the friend, not Russia. Afghanistan is a land principally inhabit- ed by warlike hill tribes. It would hardly be an exaggeration to say that their favorite ocCupation is murder. They are in almost perpetual rebellion against the Ameer, and to maintain his prestige he must make them seildiere. Etiquette required that they ebould be allowed to oarry their arms. The soldiere are big, fieroe fellews, each a walking armor in himself, A well (itemised cartridge belt is a feature of the attire of each one, The wearere would be prompt to averige any affront, real or imaginary. The coneequenee has been that the Eug- lish authorities have beep in daily terror of a deadly aesaultby the wild Afghans on the population of London. The Anglo-Indian caters accompanying the Prince said that the danger was a real one, Hog a coinpeny of the Grenadier Guards have , therefore been provided as an eecort of honor for the Prince. Fifty policemen armed with re- volvers, a mot unusual thing in London, have also been inenneted to care for the Prince. Tne SUITE AND SOLDIERS, being all Mahometaus, have to have their cooking in their own way. They and the cooks have reduced Dorchester House to the condition of an ordinary pigsty. The chief members of the suite have run riot in the finest apartmentresand the soldiers have treated everything they could lay hauds on as booty, it is believed that they have appropriated all the stable fittings. Last week the Prince's permission was obtained to take his soldiers to a hospital for a much-needed bath. This was done under the supervision of an English army surgeon. In their absence all the cleaning possible was done at Dorchester House. Perhaps the feature of the Prince's oon- duct which will most interest the civilized world was his disgust at the Englishwo- men's evening dress. He also disapproved entirely of the importance attached to women in English society. One of the first social functions which he attended was a reception at Lady Tweedmouth's. He was begged to honor the Marchioness of Lansdowne, wife of a former Viceroy of India, by taking her in to supper. He consented, but when he obtained a near view of her bare neck and shoulders he severely turned hie back on her and allowed her to walk behind him. He would not permit his eyes to be contaminated by such a sight. The Marchioness took the matter in a good- natured way. THE ROYAL PROCESSION ENTERING THE BALLROOM. believe he is more powerful than Russia or England, From all these circumstances it will be seen that the Arlieer is a person of the greatest importance to England and one who must be handled with care and the right side kept uppermost. In order to cement their friendship with their great and dear ally the British authorities extended to the Ameer Abdur Rahman Khan • A POLITE INVITATION to visit England. His Highnees accepted this invitation, " his health permitting," but in reality he had no intention of risking his precious person in British hands. He did not want to be immured in the gloomy Tower of London and be made a sport of by the British Court. But he has two sons, Habib Ullah Khan and NIIZT Ullah Khan and he felt that he could afford to send the second of these in the interests of international friendship. When they heard his decision the British authorities thought he might at least have sent his eldest son, but they did not pro. test. Every effort wee made to give Nazr Ullah a howling time. Col. Talbot of the Foreign Department of the Indian Govern- ment, Mr. T. A. Martin, the British Agent in Afghanistan, and many other experienc- ed officials were instructed to escort him. Dorchester House, the finest private dwell- ing that could be hired in Lundon, was provided for MID and his suite. TheQueen urged him to do her the favor of visiting her, and a place of honor much higher than his rank warrants was giuen him at public 'functions. In spite of all these attentions the young Priuce seems to have been dis- satisfied, and to have found England generally inferior to Afghanistan. He is about twenty-three years old and of deliaote appearance. His ordinary dress includes a frock cob trimmed with gold and a turban. He brought with him a large suite, including a strong detachment of Afghan The Prince, it is said, knows some of the ways of civilization, For instance, he knows how to eat with a knife and fork, but he does not care to be above the manners of his country. He and his followers all AT WITH THEIR FINGERS. It is an impressive sight wnen the Prince has a tooth pulled. The chief members of his suite surround him in the order of their rank. A strong detachment of soldiers with arms presented is stationed outside the door and the band plays. The dentist has an anxious time, for if he causes his royal patient to suffer too much he may have to suffer more himself. The prince has been received by the Queen and was treated with much consid- eration by Her Majesty. He spoke French at first, but she surprised him by her ability to speak Hindu. Dorchester House, in Park lane, which has been placed at the Prince's disposition, was built by Mr. Holford, who made a great fortune in Australia, and now be- longs; to Capt. Holford, a well-known member of the Prince of Wales's suite. The great stairettee, which rises to the roof, is composed of colored marbles, with a balustrade of white marble. The mansion has six stares. The vast ball -room, the state dining -rooms and the red and green drawing rooms are uphol- stered in brocaded silk. Their contents in way of pictures, china and other objeats of art are of immense value. One table come posed of colored marbles from all parts of the world is insured for $75,000. • Nazr Ullah's private dining -room is up- holstered in silk. His bedroom is furnished in bird's eye maple, and the bedstead is surmounted with a canopy of pink silk. The general effects of the house,as may be gath- ered, is one of eomewhat gaudy magnifi- pence. It is believed that the Prince and his suite will do much to depreciate its value. His stay in England is to last six week, A great reception has been given to him by the Corporation of London, and he will visit Leeds, Manchester, Glasgow, Liver- pool and other places. • The Lake of Pitch, Trinidad. The pitch is quarried by excavating areas rom a few to many feet deep and wide. As soon as the work ceases the cavity begins o close, with a rapidity depending upon the location, Near "the plaoe of gupr1y1! an exeavationjour feet deep and eight feet square, for instance, would fill in loos than two days. Were it made where the asphalt was of average hardness, it would become entirely obliterated in five or six days, though it would eubstembially fill up in less time. Outside the lake the refilling is much less rapid. This speedy closure of artifioial cavities has led to the suppositint that the eupply of asphalt is inexhaustible, the substance being maimed or generated as feat as reitoved. The circemstanoe ariees item the plastid nature of the ordinary bitumen, which invariably yields to pros. sure, until a now equilibrium is established thus, where excavations have been opened in the solid aephalt, the proem° of the sides forces up the bottom, and the cavity gradually doses. It will be manifest eliat this property of susceptibility to pressure is sufficient to account for the appearance of the solid and semi-solid pitch at the eurface ; the greater the depth, and con- aequent preseure of the, superinoumbent strata, the greater will be the force propel- ling the material upward. This lake ap- pears to be simply a greab mass of pitoh, which has been expressed from sandstone or shale and collected in a basinlike depres. sion of the etrata. The form of the surface has been pre-eminently favorable for a large accumulation, and the mouroes have been very rich, Taking into consideration the presumed amount of the contents of the cavity, the forces concerned in the elevation of rill this matter to the position it ocoupiee eaubt have been considerable.

"I TELL ALL MY FRIENDS ,P A Lady of Shelburne, Ont., Permanently Cured of Indigestion After Using Two Bottles of South American Nervine —Glad to Let Everyone Know It, / • ; r_ 440 ,1 cr 4 4i; ' ; 0, A sts.,;t t3F 10"‹, MRS. A. V. GALBRAITE With indigestion it is not only that one suffers all imaginable torments, physical and mental, but more, per- haps, than anything else, an impaired digestion is the forerunner of count- less ailments that in their course lead to the most serious consequences. Let the stomach get out of order and it may be said the whole system is dis- eased. When the digestive organs fail in their impbrtant functional duties, head and heart, mind and body are sick. These were the feelings of Mrs. Galbraith, wife of Mr. A. V. Galbraith, the well-known jeweller of Shelburne, Ont., before she had learn- ed of the benOcent results to be gain- ed by the use of South American Nervine Tonic. In so many words she said: "Life was becoming un- bearable. I was so cranky I was really ashamed of myself. Nothing that I ate would agree with me; now it does not matter what I eat I take enjoyment out of all my meals." Here are Mrs. Galbraith's words of testi- many to South American Nervine, given over her own signature "Shelburne, Ont., March 27, 1894. "1 was .for considerable time a suf- ferer from indigestion, experiencing all the misery and annoyance so 0. common to this complaint. South American Nervine was recommended to me as a safe and effective remedy for all such cases. I used only two bottles, and am pleased to testify that these fully cured me, and I have had. no indication of a return of the trouble since. I never fail to recommend the Nervine to all my friends troubled with indigestion or nervousness. "MRS. A. V. GALBRAine." The testimony of this lady, given freely and voluntarily out of a full heart because of the benefits she ex- perienced in her own person, have an echo in thousands of hearts all over the country. South American Nerv- ine must cure, because it operates at once on the nerve centres. These nerve centres are the source from which emanates the life fluid that keeps all organs of the body in proper repair. Keep these nerve centres sound and disease is unknown, There is no trick in the business. Every- thing is very simple and common sense like. South American Nervine strengthens the ,digestive organs,tones up the liver, enriches the blood, is peculiarly efficacious isa building up shattered and nervous constitutions. It never fails to give relief in one day. LUTZ 'Sole Wholesale and Retail Agent, for Exeter.
