EMPEROR OF GERMANY. Why, Frani a Legal Standpoint Thfro Is Now No Such, Title. There Ls no suck person now as the emperer dif Germany, and there never has been so far as a Prussian. king Is coneerned. Further, there is a reason why sueh is so. eIt is no mere quibble over the form of a name. Emperor of Gerinany Was a title as- sumed by Rudolph, count of Hapsburg, lin 1273. „By the pragmatic sanctiOn of 1439 the title, then held :by Albert II., I was confined in perpetuity to the house !of A.ustria. This succession comb to an end in the ;person of Franc1111., whO after his crushing defeat by apo: leonl resigned his title of emperter of Germany and took that. Of emperor of Austria, 1806. At the slame time 'Aus- tria , withdrew from the ;leadership 'of a mere fief of INland, steppedInto the position. That imoveinent, however, changes, and it *as not till 1871 that the *new German confederation emit- pleted its dream by the king of PrW3glii [becoming German emperor. William I. imagined then and contin- ued to imagine to Ms dying day that he had a right to the older title, but BIB- tmark would have none of it, and hie mandate, German emPeror, became [law. :The reason was obvious, the em. perois of Germany being the represent ativei of the ancient empire of the went, the Holy 'Boman liimpire, a poEd. tion „Impossible to the Lutheran de. Moreover "emperor Of" meant, as In Rustfia it means, sovereign lerd absolutel,y of land and people., Quebec's Fortifications. The fortifications of Quebec are Ow lete as fortifications, but remain as picturesque additions to 'the beauty and interest of "the Gibraltar of Ameri isist of walls and a citadel built in 1823-32 at cost of over £7,000,000. Between 1865 and 1871 three forte Were built on the „Levis' side of the riveri but were not armed or znanned. The Citadel occupies more than forty acres.

It is a curieus fact that the Frencb eapital was ! once threatened, by a horde of hungry dogs. This -event Was associated with many other and more startling ones of the reign of terror. It v4s due to a very natural cause. The greater part of the aristo- ceats who had fled or gone into hid- ing kept dogs., and 'very few were able te4make arrangements for the care of their animals, when they hurriedly left their homes. The dogs, Abandoned, took to the streets and ehortly began to cong're- gate in two packs, one occupying the Champs Elysees and one the Bois de Boulogne. Scion they became a public danger, as is evidenced 'by the duly re- cerded fact that Santerre, the brewer, proposed a laW that all dogs should be hanged. So, In September, 1793, when thousands of' starving animals were seeking subsiStence ha a city not over- provided with food, drastic measures were adopted against the Champs Ely- sees pack. Two battalions of the national guard surrounded the area. leaving a gap toward the tue Royale, while hun- dreds- of men and boys "beat the cover." The game was driven up to the Place Royale. where troops made a battue of it. Three days consecu- tively was this repeated, and more than 3,000 dogs lay in the place. It is said that one Gaspardin, who was ordered to remove the carcasses, being short of means to effect this, ap- plied for the royal equipages. To the revolutionists this appeared a timely jest and the application was granted gleefully and with applause. So Gas- pardin packed the dead dogs in the gilded coaches and made a state pro- cession through quartered with his Heutenaut of reservee—a col- lege professor in civil life --in the house of a Polish peiest who had no thing language to his tmigue hut Polish and Russian. The captale rubbed up the duety memories of his own school days and made shift to converse with his reeerend host in Latin. Afterward he asked his comrade what be tbouebt • R COPY expression of pain was hardly dimmed by the thickness of his opectaclee. - "It was only one m 're of the hor- rora of war," he said r signedly. Cape of Good Hope. 't Due to the cowardice of his crew and Ms own somewhat timid nature, Bar- tholorneve Diaz discovered the Cape of India, In 1487 he rounded the cape. but did not know it at the time, being too far out to sea. When the crew dis- covered they were on the wrong side of the mainland they !became panic stricken and insisted on returting at once. Fearing mutiny, Diaz turned back and soon caught sight of the cape. Thus did he discover Good Hope while on his way homeWard. Human Ignorance. Speaking of his life, the aged scien- tist, Fabre, said shortly before bis death: "Because bave. stirred_ a few -eains of sand on the shore am I in a position to know the depths of the ocean? Life has unfathomable sec- rets. Human knowledge will be eras- ed from the archives of the world be- fore we possess the last word that the gnat has to say lo us. Scientifically, nature is a 'riddle without a definite solution to satisfy man's curiosity. Hypothesis follows hypothesis, 'the theoretical rubbish heap accumulates and truth ever eludes us. To know how not to know might well be the last words of wisdom." Very Annoying. "I can't bear these men noyelists," declared one lady. "Why; not?" the other inquired. "They calmly tell you that the hero- ine wore a gown which fascinated a duke and not a word as to what it was made of or hatv it was trimened.". • "Your leading Indy is not true to "What's the .matterr "In the first act she receives a tele- gram, and you have her open it with- out fear or trembling.re Falkland Breezes, Probably nowhere else does the wind blow so hard and steadily as in the Falkland islands. Tree growth is prac- tically impossible owing to this pecu- rliarity, and with such force does the wind sweep that region at times that potatoes and turnips have been known to be blown out of the ground. Gress, however, grows lexurihntly. Australia's Bottle Tree. The bottle trete is a native of Austra- lia. It has a trunk of extraoedinary ex- pansion and disproportionateness which is greater when the ground is rocky. In fertile soil the trunk forms uni- form cylindrical column, from whose summit the branches issue as from the neck of a bottle, hence the name. "Can you keep a secret?"
