6 iIIS NIBS, RAJIAIN ABUBARER | )., in the Monarchial World as the Sultan of Johore, Known A POTENTATE OF CONSIDERABLE WORTH From a Popnlation of 100,000 He Manages to Extract Hie Weight Precious Stones, He Will Seatter by m Gold and Some of Whicl Chicago, The next rogal visitor to the United Btates and the World's fair 0 be the sultan of Johore ing a trip around the world also called Rajah Abu v, and maharajah of Johore, Johore is a semi- independent principality less than half the sizo of the state of M ated on the Asian mainland, just the straits from Singapore, and has a population of about 100,000 people, ‘not to mention the Novertheless the sultan of Johore maintains an arihy and navy, a “court.” an heir apparent, o prime minister ind a little avistocrucy all his own, The exact value of a Johore title of no- bility has not been stated, but there is no doubt about the fact that far as Johore royalty is concerned there money in it. His august serenity, son of the sun, king of the forest and hered- itary grand ruler of the N y archi- pelago Abubaker isa millionaive. He has several attendants in his retinuc whose sole duty it is to take charge of his dinmonds, and they are strong, ab bodied men, who help each other iifting the boxes of gems and jewelvy which are indispensable to the happiness of the rajah. The sultan of Johore, too, man, else e would not be able to stand up under the weight of gold und pr cious stones heaped upon him ey worning when he puts on * his offi costume, His dress varfes from day to 1y, and he changes the style of his jewelry. Sometimes he wears an ordi hary business suit, the kind kings wear when they are wttending to their duties. The only thing noticeable about it is that thé buttons are made of diamonds. The careful © would notice that when the sultan took his hands out his pockets enormous gold rope b lets were twisted about his wrists, anl that his fingers were almost hidden by massive gem-studded golden rings. On the right hund diamond and emerald rings alternate and on the left diamonds and rubie: Ttmustnot e imagined kays the Buffalo Exp of Johore isa savage of th Persia order. He is a well educated and intelligent man, who has traveled much: but, like all the Indian princes, he has the diamond habit. He would be utterly miserable if he did nct have some precious stones upon his person. When he wants to indul himself he does not feed his stomach or his mind, nor is he given to drink or gambling When he gets alot of money that he wants to spend he buys ‘diamonds, These feed his eye and tickle his oriental imagination, and he is then more than ever convineed that he is a great man. But it is not alone as the possessor of diamonds und rubies, gold and silver, frankincense and myrvrh, that the sultan of Johore poses among the princes of Indin as a great man. He owns half of the city of Singapore, and his ancostors formerly owned the whole of it. He also owns the Ellenborough plate, said to be the most famous service of plate in existence. This w sold at auction in Scotland some years ago. The sultan of Johore heard of it and at once saw a chance to outshine the rajah of Seinde, He wanted to buy the plate, but, like many of the princes of Tndia, he didn't have the money. Then he decided to approach his wife on the subject. The sultana at once lent him $i75,000 to buy the plate, with only one condition, that her name be put ‘in Arabic on each piece. The sultan took the money and bought the Ellenborough plate. Then he played upon the sultana what some of the other princes of India said was a mean trick. He had her name engraved on every piece, but so small that it looked like a mere serateh which would not be noticed until atten- tion was called to1t. All of this plat. is of solid gold, and cach picce, in addi- tion to the serateh which stands for the name of the sultana, bears the arms of Johore. The gold centerpicee is so big that it takes four men to lift it. Ther is nothing like it among all the othe: rajahs, maharajahs, -ameers and what- nots of India. Johore has about 20,000 square miles of tervitory and is situated at the south- ern end of the Malay peninsula. On the northwest it is bounded by the Moar river, and by the Indu on the northeast. The country is covered for the most [:m by virgin forests, which have not sen fully explored. The little town of Johore is fifteen miles from Singapore, and when the sultan wants to amuse himself he invites parties out from the city. He recently invited the United States consul with other dignitaries to witness tho ceremony of proclaiming the heir appurent. The sultan had been in bad health and had been taking the waters of Cavlsbad, Fearing for the succession of his royal house he decided to retuen and preelaim his eldest son, Prince Ebrahim. The American consul woent out to the palace and thus described the ceremony: “From our rooms in the palace we could sce the little city of Johore, its well paved streets swarming with the loyal subjects of his highness in holiday attive, the Dewan or logislative build- ings, the hall of justice, the wide- epreuding grounds and gardens of th palace, and could-just cateh a glimpse of the istuny isars, or woman's palace. “The outlook wis so pleasant that [ was tempted to go directly to the sultan and in our ‘frank American’ way offer offhand to exchange jobs with him, as it were, “AL 1130 a0 m. an aide announced that his highness would receive us in the throne room. We passed through a of softly-carpeted, viehly-fur- mshed vooms and corridors until wo reached the grand salon, Here we we asked to wait once more. Nothing loath we paused and gazed about us. *The grand salon isa room 100 feet long, I should judge, by 50 wide and 30 high. Its furnishings are a delightful mixture of the ceerdent and the orient, A soft velvet carpet from Hol- lana covers the toor, Velour and lace curtains from France hang at the doots and window and re- duce the fierce, steely glare of the noons day sun 1o a soft, translucent twilight, Luxurious chairsand settees from Groat Britain, and great divans from Turkey, all covered with the voyal yellow, stand side by side. “Wo are graciously received by his highness—I with the rest, in spite of my ordinary suit of evening clothes. My colleagues' magnificent uniforms and numerous decorations seemed to cut no greater figure in his cyes than they weuld - have in the eyes of the illustrious Lincolu, Still I must confess, that while stunding in the midst is expec who is He¢ w York, situ- across tigers 80 is a strong ohser from this. the sult Shah-of- st | declare any one,fro 9 the 1 W fe ing d that v to allow mark inmy ! ant litt ta ornt nred uir or a bras and wished 1eht it wise distinguishing and blue ribbon button in my nose o led asplendid any He in ix well built square shouldered, and has clean features, well chiseled head and iron- gray hair and mustache. he tided and fourth fin hands were a perfect f On his the monds of his own family « gar ter of Johore, He wore a round, vimiess cap, much like a polo cap, in the front of which were the arms of Johore set in diamonds. On his right wrist was a heavy gold bracclet, and atound his waist a gold cord His highness was radiant in his court dress of black and gold. On and across his breast was a blaze of decorations from all the countries of Europe, from Asia, and even from his departed great- ness, our old friend Kalak: s and s ad infinitum. The collar of his coat was a solid mass of diamonds, as was the knot of each apaulette, while in the 1d_embroidery of his sleeves we stitched rows of them. His sword belt and sword were studded with diamonds, emeralds and rubles, and sprays of d mondswaved liked plumes “from tho front of his rimless cap. His fingers were cramped with rings, and his wrists with bracelets, +*On the right of the sultan sat his ex- celleney, the governor, whiie on his left was the erown prince, 18 years of age, dressed in the resplendent uniform of a licutenant of artillery and decorated with the orders of the crown of Johore, Next to the prince sat the Dato (Lord) Mgl- drum, a charming old Scotchman who. yoars ago, lost his fortune with Johore and was raised to the pe re by his g ful sovercign, Two other English- menin his highness'se re have likew been honored, the postmaster general, Dato Bently, and the commissioner of public works, Dato Garland. On the opposite side of the table sat the Dato Mintei, or prime minister, a splendid looking man. The table service was either solid gold or Dresden ware. *One course was served on the famnc len- borough plate. “The menu was of some seventeen courses, more French in its composition than typical of the country. It was not a full-fledged dinner, you must bear in mind, only a tiftin, s0 that at the end of three hours we were ready f wrs and the toasts of the queen, the governor, the guests and the sultan. Then, to the tamiliar international air of “My Country, "Tisof Thees” “God 5 the Queen,” we urose and wan- red out into the marble corridors with glow ot kindliness in our several faces for all the world, reaay and willing to n Nero to Tom Reed, crown prince of Joho Such is the soothing effeet of a well filled stomach. “The ceremeny of the proclaiming of the heir apparent was an cone. Ranged against the walls room several files deep were the nobility of the kingdom, the ministers of stat d the officers of the army and navy: the space back of these was filled by Chinese mandarins and rich native merchants in their picturesque costumes. In front of the nobility, standing in the form of a square, were the sons of datos (lords), each bearing golden, jowel-studded chogans, spears, krises and maces. I[uside the square stood the foreign consuls. Into thi open s aare came the heiv apparent sur- rounded by his brothers. On the throne sat the sultan, with the governor on his right haud. On his left were his erown diamonds and his robe of ermine. Back of the throne stood four young princes, two bearing the golden, bejeweled kri of the Maiay, another the golden sword of state, and the fourth the scimetar of the prophet. “AL a signal from the datonrara (sec- retary) the band ceased and the sultan arose and proclaimed his son Funkee, Prince Ebrahim, his successor and the future ruler of his people. Then the Dato Mintri asked the peonle if they wished it to be. With a united ery came back ‘Suka! Suk; (Johore for ‘sure’) which was taken up in a prolonged shout by the assembled natives in the palace grounds. Then the governor arose, and in a few words approved of the act in the name of her majesty of Great Britain and Ireland. Ashe took his seat the young vrince came forward and kissed the hand of his highness and touched that of his excellency. Then the guns from the fort and the gunboats in the harbor pealed forth the royal salute, the band played the Johore hational an- them and the great concourse of natives shouted themselves hoarse. An Arab reader next stepped forward and read an address in the name of his highness's subjeets and then all were permitted to come forward and congratulate the for- tunate young man.” The sultan is 65 years of age and a widower, By the recent death of his wife he inherited $20,000,000, He is one of the best billiard players in the cast, and has had some handsome billiard tables made for his palace at Johore The sultan has taken a lively interest in the World's fair. He is now secing the sights of the world, and will take in Chicago and New York in his trip around the globe in hes, breast was Cros It was a cold, bold, horrid little squat toad, not much bigger thana picce of chalk, but 1t captured a strect car in Grand street last ay night and stood up the passengers, too, in 4 manner that would have commanded the respect of xperienced stage robber, says the New York Sun, The ear was going east and was filled with shop givls and shopping women. Its windows were open and that fact in- spired a little boy, the owner of the toad, with evil thoughts, The little boy held the toad in his hand. He looked thoughtful, as if he were considering the various profitable purposes to which a toad could be applied. Tying it to the stick of a rocket leaves most of the fun to the imagination, and slipping it into daddy’s trousers pockets may bring about unpleasant consequences, The Grand street ear came along and interrupted the hittle boy's meditations, At an open window space the bare neck of a girl offered a shining mark. The little boy crept up beside the car, veached cAutiously in through the wine dow and cavefully dropped the tead down the selected neck. The girl sercamed, screwed her hand down the buck of her nec! this time louder than before. She drew out something, threw it in horror on the car floor, und at that moment the little boy yelled *rats,” IVery womun in the car stood up on the seats and shricked, the driver put on the brakes, the conductor rubbed his oyes nervously, approached the small Noppi g, looked relieved, and ejected the intruder, The little boy sat on the curb, and looked up at the’ sky aud smiled, “Dido't Kuow it Was Loaded.” The “didn’'t know" brigade is a very industrious one and has branches in al- community.

He does mot give his reasons for paying the visit or what he expeeted to learn from 1, but as to Mr Maiden's claim to extraordinary powers of sight has this to say: *This man's eyes huve the look of ordinary optics.

M Schaeberle of the Lick obscrvatory, who has lately returned from Chili, South Amer ica, where he went to obscrve ' the eclipse of the sun which occurred there last April, Here is a_statement of his theory, taken from the New York Weekly Tribunc of June 28: “Prof. Schacberle’s theory, which he went to South America to prove, was that the beautiful corona which appears every time there is a total cclipse of the sun was caused by the fact that the sun was covered with immense voleanoes which continually belched forth great masses of molten mate- rial, which the sun drew back to it with a speed which_could not be realized.” Judging trom this, Mr. Couch will find there are others than Mr. Muiden whose views fail to “correspond with my own." His rival's lack of cducation Mr. Couch brings before his readers 1 this wis is 4 well built man, near 52 year: Englishman, who finished his scholast; cation nearly forty years ago.”” Mr. Maiden, like all truly great men, is above mere petty pride and has never coricealed the fact of his meager schooling, but feels little need to apologize for what he shares with some of the greatest names i history, und is happy to think that while he left schicol forty yeur's ago he did not therefore cease learning He is still a student, and in tho world thit great scheol of expe ce, 1s daily learning lessous decper and higher than any schol, tic iustitution can teach. His ignorance of astronomical affairs i touched upon as follows: “Junc 1o, 183, in the gen- tle moonlight, with the moon presenting the old picture of the ‘mew moon in the oid moon’s arme,’ shining trom the constellation Gemini, with some bright stars to the north, I innocently inquired of the sage with the telescopic eye their names. But my ex- pectations were lost in tho dim twilight, Still looking along the line of the zodiacal coustellations, from Gemini past Cancer and Leo and Virgo, with Libra beyoud, and while the philosopher was telling of how, at 9:50 . m., on August 31, 1802, Lie saw with telescopic wonder the planet Saturn, and while dilating on the beautics that would be shown more on June 15 than August 31, 1802, of that queen of the sky, 1 expected that the fine points of excellenve would be pointed out, and the exact place of Uranus. I was disappointed until, pointing to Lyrea, he said: “Thera'is a planet,’ " Mr. Maiden is unacquamnted with the nimes of the stars, or is unable to point out the constellations, or that he may even mistake a fixed star for a planet, while it shows his lack of the rudimentsof astronou knowledge, is no proof of his lack of ex- traordinary powers of sight, nimself hardly shows to greater advantuge when he speaks of making “the virgin Vega Dlush with eavy.” Vega is a name derived from the Arabic alncsre-al-wagi, meaning fallng star. When he says, *“Ihe Sage of Ord cortainly surpassed my ability, for had I tried to see turn at 4:30 p. m., August 81, 1802, 1 would have climood some voleanic height and looked down into its nether depths to see by its reflection thut queen of night.” 1f Saturn was not visivle sky- wards it could hardly be scen by looking “down into’ the "nether depths” of u *vol- caie height.” Ana i is tronomic, if not poet Saturn “gucen of the sk, night.” Such remarks are apt to make old | man Saturn “blush witn cuvy.” Mr. Couch sneers ut Mr. Maiden’s “rude apparatug,” but he should the early observers had apparatus equally rude, and that the foundations of astronomy | werd luid by observers who possessed o ap- | paratus at all | * Mr. Maiden's theorie or may not ab variunce with facts: this of itself is no ument against his possessing extraordi- Jowers of vision. 10 see is one thing; tly describe what is seen, anotk To ovserve and to deduce theories as tho r sult of such observation are powers of dif- ut orders hat Mr. Couch has in this instance at | least shown himself either an opticiun or un | astronomer will be the opinion of few pos- | sess abilities of pussing judgment upon ct.
