4 THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON: FRIDAY. CHOSHY Ss. NOYES. Editer. [= THE EVENING STAR has tne fullest Lecal Circulation of any Newspaper in the Wertd. and as an Advertising Mediam is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. SSS New York Offices Room 93, Tribune Building, Ser The theory that there is no royal road to royalty itself has received a backset from the history of the adventures in Europe of King Marie L, king of the Sedangs. This fellow, formerly known in private life in Paris as Henri de Mayrena, went some years ago to Africa in search of adventure, and found it, by preémpting a plot of territory with a tribe of megroes on it, and setting up athrone e~ 1 crown. When he had things in just the n=" running order, he felt a strong desire to go back and see how Europe looked, He accord- ingly founded an order of knighthood, and, ehoosing the year of the Paris world’s fair as the most eligible for making a splurge, set out on his travels. Wherever he wont he demanded royal consideration, and innkeepers and trades- men were quite willing to grant itin return for the honor of his patronage. He repa‘ courtesies by conferring the insign's of his order right and left, and, in short, was a great panjandrum till one Mme. Mayrena turned up in Paris with a claim that she was his first and only wedded wife, and that the woman who was traveling about ag Queen Consort to King Marie I was & domestic usurper. The King, quite un- daunted, produced from his trunk a copy of a royal decree issued in the realm of the Sedangs a good while before, divorcing the Parisian Mme. Mayrena, Of course, the decree was just as good as the title worn by the monarch who issned it, having come from the same workshop; but the French courts, in these severely repub- lican days, have so practical and sordid a way of looking at such matters that the King con- cluded it would be safer to get outof their jurisdiction for a while, and took a train for Belgium. All of which goes to show that, though there may be a royal road to royalty, the privileges acquired by traveling over it are not what they used to be—even aa late as the day when the first Napoleon pat away his Josephine. od Within a few days warrants have been issued against engineers upon both of the local rail- roads for running their trains faster than the legal rate of speed within the city limits. It is well understood that the law on this subject is persistently violated. It is also understood that if an engine, driven recklessly over the city streets at an illegal rate of speed, | 4 CRASH IN EIGHT MAMMOTH DEPARTMENTS. kills some one, the person responsible for this violation of the law, resulting in | the prices that will make Tomorrow's sale the moat notable one beld in Waabington this season, ® death, will be in an unenviable position before the criminal court. Not all of the reck- less driving. which results in fatal collisions and sends the driver to the penitentiary, is done with vehicles propelled by horse-power. Do the higher officials of the railroads direct their engineers to follow the legal rate of them orders which compel a violation of the law? If the latter is the case some railroad magnate may find himself anexpectedly the accused in a case of manslaughter, some eiti- sacrificed to his disobedience of the provisions of law which attempt to protect life and property from the dangers incident to rail- road occupation of the streets, - —— The crisis of the London strike seems to have been reached, but, unfortunately, not without some of those manifestations of vio- lence which have so often injured the just cause of workingmen. However, there has been very little violence, when it is considered that the whole number of persons involved in the strike. including the wives and children of the strikers, is as great as the population of St. Louis. The best evidence of the sound- ness of the men's claims is found in the steady support they have received from the local mer- chants and shippers. The only argument heard in any quarter against them, except among the employing dock companies, comes from some timorous souls who urge that an increase in the wages of the dockmen would mean an increase of wharfage fees, and that this, in its turn, would drive commerce to other ports, This reasoning falls flat, however, in the light of experience, The success of the dockmey in London would promptly be followed by strikes ef the dockmen in Liverpool, Southampton, Gloucester, and elsewhere. In Glasgow there has already been a demand for am increase of wages, and from Southampton has come an offer to strike now, if it will do the Londoners any good. a What will that Minnesota workingman do Enameled with the fifteen million dollars to which he has | [ace Pins, © for 250; La Tose Pins, 9c.» dozen; fallen heir in Australia?
