A BASFUL AMERICAN WHO FELT CONSTRAINED TO LEAD HIS ATTENDANT FROM THE ROOM BEFORE ACCEPTING HER INVITATION TO PLUNGE IN. An institution peculiar to Sweden is the bath. To speak of a Turkish or Russian bath brings visions of hot rooms and clouds of vapor, and a marble slab to lie upon, as in a morgue, and a cold plunge in the end. The mention of the Swedish bath brings visions—shall I say it?—of fair women. True, not all of the attendants at the Swedish baths would win prizes at a beauty show, still a large majority of them are young and buxom, and many of them, dressed and promenading the Drottningaten, would be not unattractive representatives of their sex. In all the considerable towns of Sweden, also of Finland—which is Swedish in character, although now an applique of Russia—there are well appointed baths, and the attendants at all of them are women. When I was first told this I thought it a hoax of the "Ole Olesen" type, and I "winked the other eye" at my informant, but I soon found it was true. I was in one of the first-class hotels in Stockholm, but when I asked for a bath I was directed to a house several blocks away, and thither I went. At the entrance to the bathing apartments sat a row of healthy-looking young women, all neatly dressed in become smaller every year, and their faith in the King coming by his own has long lost its vigor. Every year physicians examine King Otto and report respecting his mental condition to the Regent and German Emperor. This year, as usual, the report declares that Otto is irretrievably mad, though physically he continues in robust health and will certainly live to a good old age, unless indeed, cerebral apoplexy should follow one of his paroxysms of manial violence. An interesting picture for the moralist or satirist is presented by that lonely Bavarian castle where its insane monarch is remorselessly excluded from the world. The royal household is complete in every particular and maintained at great cost. The fullest etiquette of court is observed. Lords in waiting, grooms of the chamber, chamber-laine, physicians and the like band low as they enter the royal presence and retire backward in a striotly orthodox manner. Their position must have been trying for the courtiers in the earlier days before their practice in dodging misiles had been made perfect, for Otto has varying moods, not the least infrequent being the childish fondness for throwing things at people. For this, among other reasons, the personnel of mad Otto's court has been unchanged during the eight years he has occupied his present quarters, save by death. Otto's aim is often painfully true, but the injured courtier never makes any fuss, and cheerfully returns to his duty as soon as he is out of the surgeon's hands. One of these days King Otto will doubtless kill somebody, but probably the outside world will never know it. At one time Otto was enormously fat, but he has lost most of his surplus flesh within the last three years, with advantage to his general health. His physical strength is said to be enormous, necessitating the efforts of half a dozen men to restrain him from murder and suicide during his more violent paroxysm. It is needless to say that etiquette on these occasions is not strictly observed, the King being, perforce, treated like any other homicidal maniac. After these fits of frantic violence King Otto invariably subsides into a state of maudlin apathy, and with occasional degeneracy into bestiality. At rare intervals, becoming rarer every year, he has glimmerings of reason; followed invariably by mental darkness blacker than ever. Why the pitiful pretense of keeping this poor manisc on the throne and rendering him royal honors has been maintained all these years passes the understanding of the average man. formerly the suburbs on the placers and West Old Town to the northeast portion of Capitol Hill on the south. Buildings in advance of the fire blown up in a futile attempt to obey speed. All about the burning block streets were jammed. Charges on pounds and more of powder were put explosion throw debris high in the air its fall many men were knocked down. The fire which started at 1:30 by 2:20 o'clock the Palace drug store Second and Bennett streets was wrath flames and a fierce fight was being made keep the fire from crossing Bennett street at the Palace Hotel, and one building at other was blown up. The old part Palace Hotel on the north side of B Street and the west side of Second was up, but the fire was in the middle block. But the fire swept on. At 2:40 o'clock flames were crossing Second street at Bimetalic Bank was blown up in an eld stop them there. But it was no notice In a few minutes Bennett street, both Third and Second, was burning fiercely both sides. Here was the center town's business life. The blocks down to Third street from Second, w/the north tall lodging-houses on avenue were falling one by one. To the west it climbed the hill and home after home. From the south it was easy to control. It having been from the Masonic building, that side of ers avenue, between second and Thirst safe. A fierce fight also saved the livery stable of Wetty & Faulkner, by the north side of Meyers avenue in the block was also saved. Lines of blood through the alley between Bennett and ers saved the row of buildings on their side, and so the two rows fronting M from the Portland to the fire line of day were saved and they are all that run of the business portion. At 3:30 o'clock the fire had burned out except in a few scattering locations In the sweep of the fire had been all important institutions left after the first aster. Those who opened their doors to them less on Saturday night found them homeless to-night, and there are no open to them. The company few houses left are all one and two-cabinies, with now and then one of what they will do tomorrow. large majority of them are young and buxom, and many of them, dressed and promenading the Drottningaten, would be not unattractive representatives of their sex. In all the considerable towns of Sweden, also of Finland—which is Swedish in character, although now an applique of Russia—there are well appointed baths, and the attendants at all of them are women. When I was first told this I thought it a hoax of the "Ole Olesen" type, and I "winked the other eye" at my informant, but I soon found it was true. I was in one of the first-class hotels in Stockholm, but when I asked for a bath I was directed to a house several blocks away, and thither I went. At the entrance to the bathing apartments sat a row of healthy-looking young women, all neatly dressed in gowns of some washable stuff, cut high in the neck, but sleeveless, their white arms giving evidence of the beautifying effects of much soap and warm water. A girl of about twenty-three, I judged, stepped forward to receive my ticket, and led the way to one of the apartments. She at once busied herself with the preparations for my bath, and I sat down to wait until she had finished. She was a Swedish girl, hence her name could not have been Lucy, but she lingered long. I was still skeptical as to what I had been told, rather believing that the prerogatives of the young woman as an attache of the establishment must have a judicious limitation, and so finally thinking her exit must be near, I deliberately—very deliberately—removed my coat, vest, and trousers. Then I sat down again. She was in the tub room and I was in the dressing room, but I saw her plunge the thermometer into the water and hold it up to read the record. Then she looked at me in a wondering way, as if to ask, "What in the world are you wating for?" and motioned me to "Come on," adding some words in her native tongue. I could not understand what she said, but she booked in English, and the tone of her speech suggest both persuasion and command. To be coaxed on by a woman while I coyly held back was rather a reversal of the order of nature, but my native modesty triumphed, and I told her—chiefly by pantomime—that her services in my half were at an end. To be "pointed to the door" will usually make an impression upon the least sensitive bit of gray matter, but in this case it seemed only to suggest to the damselfish the mental query whether gray matter was not one of my conspicuous deficiencies. Nor did she appear to comprehend the situation when I finally took her by the arm and led her out of the apartment, looking the door behind her. Then I heard a chattering among the magpie outside, punctuated by exclamations of surprise and ending in a peal of laughter. No doubt my buxon attendant was telling her companions of the monstrosity in No. 8," that insisted upon washing itself! When I passed out I had to run the gauntlet of all these girls, and the baby hippopotamus could hardly have excited more expressions of amused wonder. My next bath was in another town. I walked to it with a Swedish gentleman who spoke good Eglish, and I asked him to explain to the keeper of the bath that I was from America, where women do not bathe men, and that I did not need any attendance. She nodded her head, and said; "Jal Jal" which means "Yes; I understand." A piece of drapery hung at the opening in place of a door, and as the drapery could not be locked or bolted I had to trust the keeper's word. I was in a hurry, and had taken my bath, and stood in the middle of the room, naked as a jay bird's foot, and flourishing a coarse towel, when the drapery parted and in came a young woman, scrubbing brush in hand, prepared to give me a bath. Imagine a Philadelphia housemaid coming down at 5 o'clock in the morning with soap and sand to scour the front steps, only to find that some one had done this service for her, and you may see the expression on the attendant's face as she stood still and surveyed me from head to foot. Then she signified by pantomime that she did not believe that I had had a proper bath. I re- A girl of about twenty-three, I judged, stepped forward to receive my ticket, and led the way to one of the apartments.

I was in a hurry, and had taken my bath, and stood in the middle of the room, naked as a jay bird's foot, and flourishing a coarse towel, when the drapery parted and in came a young woman, scrubbing brush in hand, prepared to give me a bath. Imagine a Philadelphia housemaid coming down at 5 o'clock in the morning with soap and sand to scour the front steps, only to find that some one had done this service for her, and you may see the expression on the attendant's face as she stood still and surveyed me from head to foot. Then she signified by pantomime that the did not believe that I had had a proper bath. I recalled the proverb about Rome, and climbed back into the tub. Thenceforth I was a Swede in all that water implies; that is, water as a means of ablution. The Swedes have unbounded faith in water as a cleansing element, an agricultural stimulant, and for quenching fire. After I had been sojourned, first with a hard brush and then with a handful of tow, and had been given a cold douche, my second ablution was over, and the maid throw around me a huge, warm towel, and dried me by pressing her hand over the towel, having first handed me a small towel for my own use. This small towel is the only sop thrown to prudery in the whole course of a Swedish bath. Then I was slapped until a stinging sensation was produced, warm felt slippers were put upon my feet, and I was left to recline a while upon the couch or to dress. The Swedish bath is a national institution, and goes as a matter of course. No Swede would think of taking a bath in any other way. I am assured that the usage is not in any degree imminent to morals. It may be so, but it is to be hoped that the knowledge of it will not materially increase the tourist traffic to the Baltic Sea. MAD KING OTTO. London, May 2.—Bavaria has celebrated this week the forty-eighth birthday of her mad King Otto, by military parades and religious services, just as though he were not, to all intents and purposes, dead and buried. Time was when the celebrations were something more than official and formal. When most of the loyal Bavarians were chasing under an unpopular regency, the Government looked forward to King Otto's early restoration to reason and to his throne, of which he had been unjustly deprived. But the popular mind has changed, and the popular heart no longer bleeds for the unhappy monarch who has passed so many days in a living tomb. Doubtless men may still be found in Bavaria, especially in the remoter rural districts, who believe that King Otto is sane and that his imprisonment is due to a Prussian plot. But their numbers CRIPPLE CREEK IN ASHES. THE SECOND DESTRUCTIVE FIRE WITHIN A WEEK—THE TOWN ENTIRELY WIPED OUT, AND TWO INCHES OF SNOW ON THE GROUND. CRIPPLE CREEK (Col.), April 29 — Cripple Creek is no more. The destroying angel whose wings of fire fanned the camp Saturday renewed his visitation and completed the calamity. To-night 1,000 people are homeless, with two inches of snow on the ground and a thermometer that is hugging the zero mark. No description can exaggerate the condition of affairs. Nearly $2,000,000 worth of property went up in smoke this afternoon, with probably one-tenth of that covered by insurance. The loss of life is not great when the recklessness with which dynamite was used is taken into consideration, blowing up buildings that stood in the path of the fire with the hope of stopping further progress of the flames. The fire started in the Portland Hotel, where it broke out, according to some reports, in half a dozen places at the same time, giving color to the report that the fire last week was designed by incendiaries that they might make a raid upon the First National Bank, which carried over $100,000 in cash in its vaults to meet the pay rolls of the district that mature to-morrow. The fire spread with a rapidity that can only be compared to the progress of the fire on Saturday. It could not be checked, and from the very first alarm preparations were made to repel the destroyer. Special trains were run from Victor and Gillette to bring in miners with dynamite ready to use wherever possible. It was more common than water at a city fire and its lavish use was productive of several fatalities and scores of wounded people. The Palace Hotel, which contained 300 rooms, was one of the first places attacked with dynamite, and from the results it would appear that little warning was given of the impending explosion. As the walls tottered in response to the tremendous charges of giant powder the air was filled with shrieks of dying men who had been caught in their rooms and dragged down in the wreck. Before the wreckers could offer any aid they were driven back by the flames that were rolling over the site of the hotel. The dynamiters fled to save their own lives and the loss of life at the Palace is merely a matter of conjecture. Over 3,000 people are homeless in a city of desolation with no homes to offer and no food to supply their daily wants. The business portion of the city left standing-to-night is less than would cover a city block. The residence section is confined to what were move up her forces. At a point where doubtful whether the pigs would be able by the bear or the bear would drop from anger and vexation Mrs. Houston her pitchfork appeared and turned three of battle in favor of the pigeon. The year bounded on three sides by the barn and buildings, leaving one side where bear could climb over. Stationing here on this side, Mrs. Houston jabbed her fork into the bear every time it woke chasing the pigeon. By the time she had delivered five thrusts the bear concluded it did not for pigs very much, and sat down. The pigs developed an appetite for bed; the hoof, and began to chase their way about the yard, giving Mrs. Houston a cellent chance to use her pitchfork. She pitchforked the bear three times in their end innings, and had the weapon up for other threat, when the animal leaped fence in front of her, and striking her ear shoulder, threw her to the ground. She lay in the mud while the bear awoke of the pigs passed over her. By then she recovered herself the bear was mile away, and the pig was trying to back with its mate. She let the pig进 up the fence, and went back to bed. For two days Mrs. Houston was so old that nobody dared to speak to her. Third morning a neighbor came up from woods and told her he had just found a bear down by the back pasture bare. The skin was taken off the carcass was too be filled with holes made by some sharp instrument. When Mrs. Houston she knew they had been with her pitchfork, and was happy. afternoon she gave both pigs another milk bath, and went about the house since Gospel hymns until bedtime. MURDER OF THE SHARP. While the Shah of Persia was entering inner court of the shrine of Shah Asim at Teheran on Friday afternoon was shot and killed by an assassin lynx wait for him, disguised in woman's Immediately after the Shah was shot he carried to his carriage and conveyed to palace. The assassin, who was proclaimed, is said to be A. Sayyid, Corasan, or from province of that country. It is believed the murderer had accomplished Nasr-ed-Deen, the murdered Shah ceeded to the throne in 1848, and during long reign showed a disposition at least place his country in line of progress age. He possessed a fairly vigor mind and in spite of the difficulties position and the errors of early education showed a humane intention of rising as the sanguinary tendencies which marked reigns of his predecessors.

NUMBER 28 Early the suburbs on the placers of East West Old Town to the northeast and a portion of Capitol Hill on the south. Buildings in advance of the fire were set up in a futile attempt to check its alarm. All about the burning block the fire were jammed. Charges of fifty cents and more of powder were put in. The motion threw debris high in the air and in all many men were knocked down. The fire which started at 1:30 by 2 o'clock seized the business houses to the north and Second street. The Bee block had blown up and yet the fire crossed the street. At 2:20 o'clock the Palace drug store at and Bennett streets was wrapped in and a fierce fight was being made to the fire from crossing Bennett street to Palace Hotel, and one building after sunday was blown up. The old part of the Hotel on the north side of Bennett and the west side of Second was blown out the fire was in the middle of the street. At the fire swept on. At 2:40 o'clock the fires were crossing Second street and the Malic Bank was blown up in an effort to them there. But it was of no avail. Few minutes Bennett street, between Third and Second, was burning fiercely on sides. Here was the center of the business life. The blocks melted to Third street from Second, while to North the tall lodging-houses on Carr Street were falling one by one. In the west it climbed the hill and burned after home. From the south the fire easy to control. It having been turned into Masonic building, that side of Meyenna, between second and Third, was a fierce fight also saved the Palace stable of Wetty & Faulkner, by which north side of Meyers avenue in the same place was also saved. Lines of hose ran through the alley between Bennett and Meyenna row of buildings on the south and so the two rows fronting Meyers the Portland to the fire line of Saturday saved and they are all that remain business portion. At 3:30 o'clock the fire had burned itself except in a few scattering localities. A sweep of the fire had been all of the instant institutions left after the first disaster who opened their doors to the home on Saturday night found themselves less to-night, and there are no doors open to them. The comparatively numerous left are all one and two-rooms with now and then one of brick. SNAP SHOTS AT THE NEWS A State Convention of Supervisors is to be held at San Jose on Monday next. The trial of the case of Miss Lillian Ashley against Lucky Baldwin, to recover $75,000 damages for basely deceiving her, began in San Francisco on Monday. Baldwin's answer is that his reputation was so notorious at the time of Miss Ashley's seduction that it should have been impossible for him to have deceived any lady by any sort of speculative argument. The British steamer Onwo was sunk by collision with the steamer New Chang off Shanghai. The Onwo went down immediately. The New Chang was beached to prevent her from sinking. The accident was disastrous. European survivors of the sunken vessel are second officer Cooper and third officer Allen. The drowned include the captain, five English officers and 300 Chinese. The United States warms Olympia, Boston, Yorktown and Detroit sent boats to the assistance of the Onwo, saving many lives. The vessels are British steamers in the China seas trade. Joseph M. Kinley filed an action against the Southern California Railway Company in Los Angeles alleging damages in the sum of $50,000 for being ejected from a train while on route to San Diego, April 28, 1896. The plaintiff alleges that he was in possession of a mileage book, issued to himself, that he was accused of impersonating another, and was forcibly removed from the train at Anaheim. Kinley is a lawyer, and declares it necessary that he should reach San Diego on professional business on the date of being put off the train in this city. Baron Hirsch left to the Prince of Wales by will $5,000,000. Common rumor has had it for a long time that the Prince was heavily in the Baron's debt. Whether the bequest is exclusive or inclusive of this alleged debt cannot be known until the will is read. The Baron was of great financial assistance to the Prince. In return, the Prince gave him constant social assistance, even going to the Baron's vast shooting domains in Austria a few years ago, on a visit. The young Kaiser was also invited there, but refused to go. The report has ever since had it that the Prince pressed his nephew to go, and the Kaiser's refusal was the first cause of the well-known ill-feeling between the two. R. J. Blee, the well-known Santa Ana horticulturist and stock man, had his leg broken near Pasadena last Tuesday evening. THE LORD'S PRAYER HOW A TRAMP SOOTHED THE LAST MOMENTS OF A DYING COMPANION. The way train ahead of us had struck an open switch and had been ditched, and two passengers were killed outright and five or six others more or less injured, runs a story in the Detroit Free Press. The killed and injured were lying on the depot platform as our train came up, and among the latter was a professional tramp, who had been stealing a ride. The doctor had looked him over. The vagabond, who had not lost consciousness for a moment, smiled faintly and asked: "Well, pard, what's the verdict of the jury?" "You are badly hurt," was the reply. "I know that I was right in the squeeze when the two care cum together. I'm as flat as a pancake. Will I ever trump again?" "I'm afraid not." "Are my legs off?" "No; you are fatally injured, however." "That means I'm a goner?" "Yes." "Wall, I'd hev liked to get over this and had somethin' to talk about and brag over, but I ain't doin' no kickin'. My pard was on the car ahead. Was he hurt!" "No; here he is." At that moment a ragged, unkempt and typical vagabond came forward and bent over the victim and said: "Wall, Jim, they say you hev got to go." "Yes." "How are ye feelin' over it?" "Sorter. No use to kick, Tom." "That's right; you never was no kicker, nowh. Got any friends?" "No." "Kin I do anything' for yet?" The dying man gazed at him for a moment in silence and then whispered: "Tom, ye ar' the only parnner I ever had as known the Lord's prayer. Just say it over to me." The old tramp pulled off his cap and knelt down, and as the score of uncovered and bowed our heads, he repeated the prayer, word for word, and with such feeling as astonished everybody. When he had finished he rose up and said: "That's it, Jim, an' kin I do anything' more?" Nothing more for him," answered the doctor, as he looked down upon the pale face. "Your partner is dead." Any one who has ever had an attack of inflammatory rheumatism will rejoice with Mr. J. A Stumm, 230 Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate escape from a siege of that distressing ailment. Mr. Stumm is foreman of Merriam's confectionary establishment. Some months ago on leaving the heated work room to run across the street on an errand, he was caught out in the rain. The result was that when ready to go home that night he was unable to walk, owing to inflammatory rheumatism. He was taken home, and on arrival was placed in front of a good fire and thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's Pain Balm. During the evening and night he was repeatedly bathed with this liniment, and by morning was relieved of all rheumatic pains. He now takes especial pleasure in praising Chamberlain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a bottle of it in the house. For sale by Derge. A Wandering Printer's Prayer.

How little does the heart-burn with $5,000,000. Common rumor has had it for a long time that the Prince was heavily in the Baron's debt.

Blee, the well-known Santa Ana horticulturist and stock man, had his leg broken near Pasadena last Tuesday evening, by the kick of a horse. He had started for Pasadena in the morning, driving a horse and cart. Getting off the road he drove up to the house of a Frenchman to make inquiries, when his horse became frightened at the barking of some dogs. The horse started to run away. In the confusion it kicked Mr. Blee below the knee, breaking both bones. Mr. Blee did not know his leg was broken until he stopped the horse and attempted to get out. He was carried to Pasadena and physicians called. After treatment he was taken home Wednesday morning, and has since been getting along as well as could be expected. News comes from San Diego that three white men had been found dead on the desert at a place supposed to be in the lower Carriso creek. The report was brought in by Juan Ignacio, a Coocah Indian, who came up from the Coocah mountains along the Carriso, on his way to Pala. The Indian said he discovered the bodies last Tuesday. All were dressed roughly like miners, and two bodies were lying together near a mosque tree, with their heads caved in and their bodies partly eaten by coyotes and vultures. Both had dark hair and beards and one was unusually tall. The other body lay in a little kick or arroyo a few hundred feet from the others. The hair and beard were light or brown and the man was of medium size. His head was also crushed in at the skull, apparently by a blow from a club. The Indian was unable to give any further description of the bodies, and he did not molest them. He was unable to give an accurate description of the place where they lay, but was ready to guide a party to the spot. No minors are known to be missing, though there are many prospectors now on the desert, and violent deaths may have overtaken some little party. A case involving the constitutionality of boards of horticultural commissioners of less than three members, such as a number of counties now have, was decided adversely to them in the San Bernardino Superior Court some days ago. The suit grew out of an attempt on the part of the Board of Supervisors to reduce the number of members of the commission from three to one, but the Court held that under the law this could not be done. The attorneys for the plaintiffs had attacked the constitutionality of the section under which the one man commission had been appointed and the Court agreed with them, ruling that the section is unconstitutional. The ground of the decision is that section 24 of article 4 of the Constitution of the state prohibits the passing of such amendatory acts. The Constitution says: "No law shall be amended by reference to its title, but in such cases the act revised or the section amended shall be enacted and published at length as revised or amended." In very title of the second act it states that it is amendatory to the act which provides for a three-man commission, but it does not amit it by enacting the law. Judge Otis therefore held that it was unconstitutional, and so long as the county has a horticultural commission it must consist of three members. Mrs. Jane Stanford on Wednesday last turned over to the trustees of Stanford University $2,500,000, the amount of Senator Stanford's bequest to the University. The amount was in railroad bonds, which pay interest at the rate of $10,000 a month. It A Wandering Printer's Prayer. The following touching lines are said to have been sorribbled by a tramp printer and then thrown on the floor of an office around which he had been loitering in the hope of obtaining work. How little does the heartless multitude realize what may be passing in the mind of a poor despised trump: Near the campfire's flickering light In my blanket bed I lie, Gazing through the shades of night At the twinkling stars on high. Over me spirits in the air Silent vigils seem to keep, As I breathe my childhood prayer, "Now I lay me down to sleep." Sadly sings the whippoorwill In the bough of yonder tree; Laughingly the dancing rill Swells the midnight melody. Foeman may be lurking near In the canyon dark and deep; Low I breathe in Jesus' ear, "I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep." Mid the stars one face I see, One the Savior called away— Mother, who is infancy Taught my baby lips to pray. Her sweet spirit hovers near In this lovely mountain break, Take me to her, Sawlor, dear, "If I should die before I wake." Fainter grows the flickering light, As each ember slowly dies; Painfully the birds of night Fill the air with sadning cries; Over me they seem to cry, "You may never more awake." Low I lap, "If I should die, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to take." Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to keep; If I should die before I wake, I pray Thee, Lord, my soul to take.
