KING LUDWI0'8 LOHENGRIN ARMOR.
A Gorgeous Costume of Wl»leh Not a Vo»-
tlge Iteinalus—An Angry King.
I wonder when we lire nil going K°t
through tulk about the mad king of Ba-
varia and liis tragic death. Still, it ia not
every day that ona has the suicide of a
king as a Beiw.tion of the hour, and that
too, of so romuhtic a royal personage as
the handsome and aesthetic Itouis of Ba-
varia. I lately had a long talk with an
English gentleman who lias lived for some
years past in Munich, and who, by a
special favor, was one day permitted to
inspect the suit of silver armor which the
king was accustomed to wear in the char-
acter of Lohengrin, and of which I wrote
in my last letter. It was even more mag-
nificent than 1 had been told at first.
The helmet was surmounted by a swan
in diamonds, the eyes of which were large
sapphires. The suield, exquisitely chased
with various scenes from the life of the
legendary here, wn» quite a wonder of art.
In the center of the breast of the coat of
moil an escutcheon in enamel and dia-
monds repeated the figure of the swan.
The diamond hilt of the sword was fash-
ioned like a sw;v:i au;l the scabbard was
enriched with diamonds, sapphires and
[•earls. Thus hit iyod, and with a mantle
of pule blue velvet thrown over his armor,
the young and superb-looking monarch
was the veritable Lohengrin of poetry and
legend. The cost of the suit was, not $18,-
000 as was oiInitially told, but $80,000. Itis
a pity that of thir ^on;eous costume not a
vestige now remains.
The real swam that were destined to
draw the hark of iiolieugrin- proved re-
fractory, and came near upsetting the
king into the lake the first time that he
exchanged the cistern on the top of the
palace for an actual sheet of water in the
royal grounds. His majesty, thus rudely
awakened from his impersonation of the
half-celestial bridegroom of Elsa, flew into
one of hi * terrible fits of passion, called
for a hammer, divested himself of his in-
comparable armor and pounded it to
pieces. He gave the fragments of the
diamond swan to one of his guard. The
man had wit enough to get the kingio
write him out a donation in due form,
and when the getns were afterwards re-
claimed by one ol the ministers, the lucky
soldier produce! the paper and was left
unmolested in possession of his diamonds
and sapphires.
King Lou s had, in fact, a perfect pas-
sion for extraordinary and gigantic ef-
forts of the jeweler s art. Among his pa-
pers there was found the other day a
drawing and estimate for a mosaic in
precious stones, representing a peacock,
which it wijs Ids intent to order for the
ornamentation of his now unfinished pal-
ace. The bird w.is to hive been the size
of life, and was u> bo composed of dia-
monds, emeralds and sRjiphices. It was
to have cost #50,0CU.— Lucy lloopar in New
York World.
Had His Curiosity Aroused.
A Detroiter who recently paid a visit
to Harper's Ferry accosted a citizen with:
"1 suppose you know ;tll about old John
Brown f"
"John Brown—old John Drown? Did ho
live here!1"
"Why, 1 mean John. Brown, who tried
to free the slaves."
Wanted to free the slaves, eh? Did he
have any middle name?"
"I am speaking of John Brown, who got
up the insurrection."
"Yes, I suouojo you ere. (Jot up an in-
surrection. did he? iI > shouldn't have
done it. When oid he lea to here?"
"is it possible that you have never heard
of John Diown?"
"Seems to me I have heard his name
mentioned here. What did the insurrec-
tion amount to, and who insurrected?"
"He captitred the engine-house down
there. Haven't *\ ou ever read the sign on
the building?"
"Lots of Uutc:;, but 1 didn't suppose it
amounted to anything. John Brown?
John Brow a? lluw o.«t ,a num was he?"
"Never mind," ref! ed ! he Detroiter. "I'll
probably ilud some one here who can tell
me what I want to know."
"Let's go out together, the-1 You've
got my curiosity excited, and I'd really
like to know who wo was, and what rea-
sons lte had for leaving the place. Say we

tions."—Detroit Free Press.

is of itself sufficient to denote biliousness, an HJ.U8TKATIVE 8AMPLK FREE,
ailment to the development of which the
hot weather—it may lie remarked in passing
—is extremely favorable, and which autumn
often brings fn its train as a lingering legacy.
If not remedied—which it speedily may be
with llostotter's Stomach Bitters—then fol-
low aggravated disorder of the stomach and
bowels, dull pains beneath the lower right
ribs, nausea and headache. A prompt use
of this invaluable specific is always desirable,
no matter what the season. Upon the liver
it exerts an influence directly beneficial. The
bile, the obstruction to its flow being relieved
by the relaxation of the bowels, returns to
its natural channel, and the portion of it
which has forced its way into and contami-
nated the blood is expelled. The stomach
also resumes its digestive function. Rheuma-
tism, fever and ague and kidney troubles
also succumb to the Bitters.

Mrs, George M. Pullman, wife of the
palace-car inventor, her f<>nr children,
twelve servants, livo horses, family car-
riages and doi-carts, says ;i Pittaburg dis-
patch, took up the room in two large Pull-
man cars on the Fort Wayne road. The
Pullman family is eu routa to Long
Branch for the summer. The car for the
horses ttnd carriages has six stalls and
room for throe carriages, besides the
berths, lookers, and sitting-rooms of the
grooms and hostlers. Tho stalls are mod-
els of convenience and square com-
fort. Separate compartments are also ar-
ranged for the feed, hay, lamps, and other
articles required for the horses and car-
riages. The private car in which Mrs.
Pullman travels Is in Imitation of a mod-
ern dwelling., Divans of more than Turk
ish luxuriousiiess occupy the corners and
sides of the main room in the center of the
car, while reclining ehttirs, Ottomans, and
easy ohalrs are scattered around. A niag-
nlQcent cabinet organ is one of the hand-
somest ornaments of this drawing-room.
The dining room and sleeping and kitchen
apartments are IHte l up on tho same
magnificent st ale.—Cnic agt) Tribune.
Marriages In the French Army.
Among other innovations, the French
minister of war, Gen. BouUuiger, considers
it necessary to make some changes with
regard to tho financial conditions under
which officers may be permitted to marry.
A soldier's >. ride may not be portionless,
and mnst needs bring him h fortune of at
least £800 before the necesa^ry consent
can be obtained from t'm authorities. It
is now thought txpvdicut to iucrease the
mitn, the expenses of a fiuuily being
greater than tliay we.e formerly, Moth-
ers with marrin«»»al>ie daughters do not
look kindly oti this proposition, and the
young officers theioselvea cro mostly ad-
verse to a change which would weigh
sorely upon them in many cases. The
general opinion is that it is advisable to
maintain the status quo for many reasons,
which It is not necessary to discuss here.

A Down Town Merchant,
Having; passed several sleepless nights, dis-
urbed by the agonies and cries of a suffering
child, and becoming convinced that Mrs.
Winslow's Soothing Syrup was just the arti-
cle neetled, procured a*supply for the child.
On reaching home and acquainting his wife
with what ne had done, she refused to have
it administered to the child as she was strong-
ly in favor of Homeopathy. That night the
child passed in suffering, and the parents
without sleep. Beturning homo the day fol-
lowing; the father found the baby still worse;
and while contemplating another sleepless
night, the mother stepped from the room to
attend to some domestic duties and left the
father with the child. During Vy absence
he administered a portion of the Soothing
Syrup to the baby and said noib'ng. That
night all hands slept well, and tho Tittle fel-
low awoke in the morning bright and hap-
py. The mother was delighted with tho sud-
den and wonderful change, and although at
first offended at the deception practiced upon
her, h«s continued to uso the syrup, and suf-
fering crying babies and restless nights have
disappeared. A single trial of she syrup never
yet failed to relieve tho baby, and overcome
tho prejudices of tho mother. Sold by all
druggists. 25 cents a bottle.
Dr. Cranfill spoke on prohibition
in front of a drugstore at Whites-
boro. Tho Waco Day thinks this
is in accordance with the eternal
fitness of things.
