It Contains the Tombs of Charles X and "Henry V" of France?Known as "Austrian Nice." Mentioned almost daily in the war dispatches from the Italo-Austrian front, the little town of Gorlzia has gained considerable prominence of late. Besides being the center of important military operations, Gorlzia is of interest because of its historic associations. Lying between Venice and Trieste, not far from the Adriatic, Gorlzia has a nnnnlntinn r?f olmnt on nnn The town has been an Austrian possession for more than five centuries, and its pleasant climate has earned it the name of "the Austrian Nice." In the outskirts on a hill is a Franciscan monastery, the road to which is marked by the 14-station way of the cross. From the esplanade in front of the monastery church an extensive view of the surrounding country is obtained. Below spreads the town, with the ancient chateau of the counts of Gorizla and the Villa Boeckmann. once the winter residence of the count de Chambord. towering over the less pretentious houses. A little further off one can trace the capricious course of the Isonzo river, the bed of which is said to the the burial place of Atilla. the Hun chieftain. In the distance lies the Carso limestone plateau, sheltering the magnificent castles of Dulno, belonging to the house of Hohenlowe, and Miramar, which UBed to be the favorite residence of Archduke Maximilian, later emperor of Mexico. The horizon is bounded by Trieste, a chain of snow-covered Alp peaks, the Venetian plain and the Adriatic. In the little chapel of St. Louis, in the right wing of the Franciscan church, the bodies of King CharleB X of France, the duke and duchess d'Angouleme and the duchess of Parmn had their resting place until 1883, when they were removed to a large vault under the high altar. In this vault there are six sarcoph gi, lumt uu eaca siae or a marble crucifix, raised on a high pedestai. Charles X has the duke d'Angouleme on his right and the duchess on hlB left. In the other group the sarcophagus of King Henry V (the count de Chambord) has been placed between those of the countess de Chatnbord and the duchesB of Parma. On a black marble Blab behind the sarcophagus of the count de Chambord Is the following Inscription: "Here rests the high born and very excellent Prince Henry, fifth of the nam'), by the grace of God king of France and Navarre. Born in Paris September 29, 1820. Died at Frohsdorf August 24, 1883." Over his tomb 1b raised an immense white banner emblazoned with the royal fleur de lis, in compliance with the order given by the count in his manifesto of July 5, 1871, where he expressed a wish "that the standard of Henry IV, of Francis I and of Joan of Arc, which had floated over htB cradle, should also throw its shadow over his tomb." Manhattan Is Flat-Footed. Little old Manhattan is flat-footed, wears poor shoes and stands up at its work, according to figures compiled by Capt. Frank E. Evans of the recruiting office of the United States Marine corps. Captain Evans is au- ! thority for the statement that approximately 18 per cent of all applicants hn annllnJ >' ' - 1 nuv n|/|iu<iu iui emisiiueui in inn marine corps at its Twenty-third street office during the past year, were rejected for "pes planus," or flatfoot. He puts the blame on the cheap ly constructed, poorly made shoes the average toiler wears at his work for the epidemic of falling arch, and on the fact that the majority of victims claimed they were forced to stand on their feet for long stretches while at their employment. Motormen, conductors, subway guards, policemen, machinists, waiters and clerks are the principal sufferers from "pes planus." Captain Rvans says.?New York Times. The Ex-Minlster. A member of the corps of the British legation said at r dinner in New York: "Some funny stories come from the front about our volunteer army. "Two young swells in the uniform of private soldiers were overheard by an officer conversing in a trench. " 'I was intended for the ministrv,' the first swell said. 'Believe me or not. old chap, I was on the point of being ordained last August.' '"1 say! And what stopped yoo, then?' inquired the other. " 'This war, of course,' was the reply." The Scoundrel. Dr. Lyman Abbott, the famous "anti," said at a luncheon in New York: "Some people think, because 1 oppose universal suffrage, that I am very severe and harah on the subject of woman. , "These people liken me, in fact, to the man who was asked: " "Do you bolievo in clubs for worn " 'Sura I do!' the man replied.

SHOWED KINDLY HEART i C038ACK SAVED BABY FROM INEVITABLE DEATH. i Incident Vouched for by Eminent American Artist Throws Somewhat New Light on Character of Russian Soldier. When F. D. Millet, the artist, was at the front with a band of Cossacks during the war between the Russians and the Turks in 1S78, an odd incident came to his knowledge. Mr. Millet s words are: "One cold afternoon at the end of December a young Circassian CoRsack came to camp headquarters with an article of booty which attracted more attention than any other object before exhibited as a relic of the war. He was dressed in a worn and shabby uniform and rode an underfed, carelessly groomed and overworked animal. There was a merry, kindly expression on his face, and but for his uniform he would never have been suspected of belonging to the race whose name in widely synonymous with ferocity and cruelty. He had gathered up the long mane of his horse in Buch a way thftt it rnnrla fi anrf Knm mock. The Angara of his left hand were twisted in the knotted horsehair, and in this ingenious bed lay, or rather reclined, half-seated, a little girl baby, perhaps a year and a half old. She was dressed in a peculiar, antiquated costume made of Agured calico. "In reply to our questions the Cossack reported that he had been, with his men, that morning in pursuit of a Turkish wagon train. They were unable to capture the train, but had gathered up a great quantity of booty thrown away by the fugitives to light- > en their loadB. On the side of the road he noticed a bundle of ragged counterpanes, and dismounted to examine it. To hiB surprise he discovered that a child's voice proceeded from the bundle, and unrolling it, he disclosed the baby, lying quite warm and comfortable, just as it had rolled off one of the wagons. Lie said he couldn't leave the little one there to die, and couldn't take care of it himself, so he rigged a cradle out of his horse's mane and came directly to headquarters." Married in Old Age. A septuagenarian couple have Just been married at Hull, England. Bride and bridegroom are both inmates of aa institution founded for the benefit of tradesmen and others who find it necessary in their declining years to , seek assistance. Each has a grownup family. The bride has been a resident of the home for some time, but the bridegroom obtained admission only three months ago. Within a few days he was attracted to the lady, the ruleB of the institution permitting freedom of social intercourse little less than that enjoyed outside. The attraction was mutual; an acquaintanceship of boyhood and girlhood days was revived, and an offer of marriage was made and accepted. It was necessary to obtain the consent of the government body of the institution to the marriage, but this was a mere matter of form, and was read ily granted. A friend of the bride, who lives in a pleasant country village a few miles from Hull, invited the pair to spend the honeymoon with her. Foolish Fighting. Andrew Carnegie said at a luncheon in inbw roric: To a Martian or any other higher intelligence this world war. which every belligerent entered with the declaration that he didn't want to fight, but was forced to?this world war would seem to a higher intelligence, 1 repeat, as unreasonable as the prize fight seemed to the old lady. "An old lady said on her return from the city: " 'My rich son-in-law took me to a prize fight one evoning. I never saw such a thing. The two men came out. on the stage and shook hands like the best of friends. Then they began to punch each other, and all for nothing. They kept on punching away till a man in the corner yelled "Time!" Nobody answered him. so I pulled out my watch and shouted, '"Ten o'clock"!'" Kills Cat, Calls Fire Fighters. Killing of town cat and rousing the fire department of this exclusive colony into activity, was the manner in which Elliott Green, son of Milton J. Green, former United States referee in bankruptcy, ushered in "his" hunt ing season. Another result was the arrest of the young man. Green started out hunting, but he couldn't wait until he got beyond (ho confines of the borough to try out his new shotgun. Near the town hall ho espied a quail, raised his gun and tired. The quail went through the "pattern," but some of the shots sent the town tabby to its final hunting grounds, and the rest sounded the clarion tones of the Are bell.?Hillsborough Dispatch to San Francisco Chronicle. Change Nautical Phrase. The United States nary has dropped the term "helm" and will in the future use the unmistakable word "rudder." Instead of the old-fashioned oomraand, "Starboard your helm," the n*w direction will be. "Right rudder." The old phrase sounds more "nautical," bat qulchness of comprehension and action are nowadays essential, and picturenque terminology saost suffer. THE PORT MILL TIMES, FOR DOGS NO MATCH FOR BUCK 1 Animal at Bay Proved Itaelf Matter oT i Pack That Had Bee# Put on Its Track. !. Animals of different species do not often fight one another because they 1 cannot comprehend or guard against I an attack different from that used by ? one of their own kind- j t The predatory beasts in many cases * overcome their prey, not because they t are very much stronger, but because I of the fear and confusion that their t strange method of attack rouses in i their quarry. I t For example, a dog of a fighting i breed charges like a lion, and nearly < every member of the deer tribe, in- i eluding even the elk and moose, flies h from him in panic; but when one of ? these animals learns the real power of the dog it is a different matter. I Hobart Ames kept a number of deer i in a para at nis winter bome in Ten- i nessee, among them a buck with a I fine set of horns. The buck came to i have a great contempt and dislike for t dogs, and any unfortunate dog that t got into the deer inclosure did well to i escape with his life. S The buck had learned that no dog s could withstand the charge or the i thrust of his horns, and running from them was the last thing he thought of. t On the other hand, the dogs were i greatly puzzled by an animal that ' i ought by all rules to run away, but ? did not. i One night the big buck jumped out t of his yard, and Mr. Ames' foreman put 1 the dogs on the deer's track and found I 1 him in a thicket a quarter of a mil* i from the house. There was a fight, t and then the dogs were seen coming home at top speed, followed by the enraged buck. His hair was turned the wrong way . and his eyes burned redly as he | charged every dog he could overtake. | Several of the hounds were badly hurt and all of them v.-ere scared. They fled to their own quarters, and it required the combined efforts of the j kennel men and stable boys to rescue the pack. Probably if a single one of ^ the hounds had learned to fight a deer at bay his example would have been followed by his mates.?Youth's Companion.

Dropping some coins into the box. the lady passed on, with a remark to her companion as to what . some children are responsible for.

As a rule, big men are shy and lackng in assurance. A daughter of the Cods, divinely tall, fills them with tomething like terror. The woman who appeals to them is usually some iparkling, vivacious, fairylike creature with kittenish ways and roguish Clances. The little man, on the conrary, is seldom burdened with humilty. He is a being of great aspira:ions and stupendous ambitions; he >elieves in himself, which is the realon why he generally can ge,. the woman of his choice to smile upon ilm.
