VICTIMS OF ASSASSINATION The Awful Affair at Belgrade Adds a Black Mark to a Long List ot Horrible Deeds. "Uneasy lies the head that, wears By sword, dagger, poison, bomb and revolver, scores 01 the world's rulers and leaders of men have been struck down by men in most cases greatly inferior to their victims, The trail of blood can be traced down the centuries from before the birth of Christ. Almost all countries have suffered by the hands of assassins, and even woman has not been spared. Ono who kills by surprise or secret assault;, one who treacherously ir,.'irdenj/any one unprepared for defence, fs looked down upon by the world as one of the meanest cowards and lowest of criminals, yet .royalty has not failed to descend to this means to bring about its ends, and royalty has suffered repeatedly at the hands of assassins. The terrible affair in Belgrade, Ser-via, recently, shocked the whole world, and it was the first of kind in the world's history. There is no parallel to it. Not only the king and queen killed, but the queen's brothers and the king's ministers were massacred. MURDER OF JULIUS CAESAR. What the world has generally re ognized as the most important a sassination was that of Julius Ca Bar, called Augustus Caesar, tl greatest Roman of them all, perhaps the greatest man of all the ancient world. His death and the events that followed changed the course oi •vents and marked an epoch in the history of mankind. The story is familiar to nearly all. Emfperor Caesar, of the Roman Em-pigg, had bitter personal Who plotted his downfall. There were, too, lovers of the old republit who desired to seo restored the liberties which Caesar had overthrown. The people got the idea that ho was trying to make himself king. Several times a crown was offered to him in public, but he thrust it ■side, although there is no doubt he secretly desired it. It was feared that he intended to make Troy or Alexandria the capital of the proposed kingdom, and therefore many, -because of love for Rome and for the old republic, entered a conspiracy to kill Caesar. The Ides of March, the fifteenth day, 44 years before Christ, tho day the Senate convened, witnessed the assassination. Seventy or eighty conspirators, headed by Brnitus and Cassius, both of whom had received special favors from Caesar, were among tho plotters. Caesar was warned by soothsayers, who haid some knowledge of the conspiracy, ar<d on his way to the Senate meeting a paper cautioning him Was thrust into his hand, but he did not read it. As soon as the Emperor had taken his seat the conspirators crowded about him, as though to present a petition. At a signal their daggers Were drawn. For a moment Caesar flefended himself, but seeing among the conspirators Brutus, a roan up-OTi whom he had lavished gifts and favtexrs, he exclaimed: Thou, too, Brutus," ."l^^ ished in the c the wound. ■•i"i"i"i"i"i":"i"i-i--i":-i •i-i-i-i-i-i ■i"i"> were injured. Calling out, "Help me," his Majesty fell. He wa en to the Winter Palace, and died during the afternoon. Five of the conspirators, including a woman, were publicly executed. THE MURDER OF JAMES I. The death of James I., of Scotland, was a spectacular event. He was to spend Christmas at Perth, Before he crossed the Forth he was warned by an old Highland woman that if he passed he would not return. She tried unsucessfully to get access to him again at the Dominican monastery at Perth, where he lodged. At midnight, when he wau half undressed, Oraham, who had been banished, came with surrounded the monastery. Tncir approach was heard, but it was found that the bolts had been removed by treachery. Jumes was hastily cealed in a vault underneath a ro Before the conspirators entered, brave attempt was made by Catherine Douglas, one of the queen's maids, to bar the door with her arm; but the fragile obstacle broke, and Graham burst in. Tho fall of another of the maids into the vault discovered the king, who fought fiercely for his life. The queen was wounded in trying of his assail-by numbers, the murderers exceeding usages of the the sad fate of the the best of the last, after falling ants, he fell.

Ti who is a mere boy of not more than 17 years, did not realize that the punishment which he had inflicted upon the woman was responsible father refusal to go to work. Ho said she was stubborn. That belief led him to assault her with his pistol when she was dying. He simply hastened the end by giving vent to his fury.

It is no easy task to gain admittance to the Villa Gena, where President Kruger is passing the spring at Mentone, writes a correspondent. A policeman is told off to try and keep away the crowd of snap-shot-ters vxio congregate before the gates ef the villa every morning between 11 and 12 in the hope of getting a shot at the president as he enters the houso from tho garden where he has spent the morning. No bell is nor any handles to the gates which give access to the villa. The policeman is friendly but dis-juraging. Ho suggests that perhaps Dr. Huysman, Mr. Kruger's physician, who lives hard by at the Villa Rosa, may be inclined to give information, but Dr. Huysman is away for tho day, and his wife is .nyiifct^. Fortunately at this moment young Eloff, the president's grandson, is returning home, and, as ho opens tho main gate by a hidden latch on the further side, the reporter is able to go in with him and ring the boll. The Boor who opened the door--the president's body servant--would oppose entry at all cost," but the appearance of Mr. Bok, the secretary, soon put things on a better footing. He stated, however, that Mr. Kruger had laid down a hard and fast rule that he would receive no ono and make no statement whatever to any pross man, and that what he had so consistently refused the whole winter could not be granted now. Mr. Bok, however,- showed every evidence of friendly feeling to the repoi and ushered him into a study ph ly furnished, of which the most ticeable article was a huge Boer trunk, in shape and size resembling 'The only person," he said, "that the preside capacity was the mayor o " Granet, the pre Alpes Maritimes, was not received when he called."

The world's foremost searchers after the ultimate secrets of the universe have at length committed thenyselves to the stupendous theory, for some time foreshadowed and now apparently substantiated by study, of the new substance, radium, says a recent London letter. Crookos, tho other day in Berlin, and Lodge and Curie, last week ir London, have confidently proclaimed that it is easy to define this great revolution in science in sc ly more than a sentence, bu comprehend it is almost as far yond the power of the human mind as the idea of eternity or infinite ^he old theory that the atoms of elements consist of individual units of matter now is definitely discard-Instead, we now are told that each atom is a whole stellar system of infinitely smaller but absolutely identical units, all in a regular orbital motion hydrogen.

The n those ions is, for want of a better word, electrical. In other words, electricity and matter aro one and 3 thing. HINTED AT BY RONTGEN RAYS. This theory has been more or lesa familiar to scientific men for two or three years, but it has been un demonstrable until recently. Whut Rontgen Rays suggested now radium seems to furnish complete. Prof. Curie's examination of radium and other phenomena loads Prof. Lodge and his associates to believe that matter is not stable in its atoms, as heretofore supposed. Everybody is familiar with the disintegration of matter, which means a rearrangement or recombination of the elements. Thus water may be separated into oxygon and hydrogen,, but it never before was imagined that the atoms themselves were capable of disintegration. Prof. Lodge suggests that this is a notable process of nature, yet it is p.ror-eeding at a rate so slow that it baffles the powers of conception of the human mind to estimate the length, of time required. In radium alone it proceeds so rapidly that the phenomena is easily observed. PROF. CURLE'S EXPERIMENTS. Prof. Curie, the discoverer of radium, in some wonderful experiments at the Royal Institution showed that radium spontaneously id continuously disengaged heat rapidly that it affected photographic plates, even through opaque bodies. It discharged electroscope hem merely brought in its vicinity and gave off emanations similar to tself in constant, even violent, streams of radiatione. In other words, the 150,000 ions, which composed each atom of radium, rotated 'olently that they flew apart original units. It has been calculated, however, that this efflux from radium is so definitely small that a square inch of surface, would ly one grain in 10,000,000.-000,000 years. Prof. Lodge surmises that this process of disintegration of atoms may constitute tho volution of the chemical elements The lecturer announced that with-l a few weeks Prof. Rutherford had observed the breakup of the most atoms. He found that a me of a radio-active sub-seemed to reach a critical stage, at which they flung away small portions of themselves with great violence, the residue having property of unstability for ,e until ultimately it -tied down into a presumably forent substance. Changes of this seem to require millions of millii of centuries--so long, in fact, that the longest periods in astronomical evolution seem but hours ir LAW OF CHANGES. CATS MYERSES DAYLIGHT UNDERGROUND FELINES FED BY THE GOVERNMENT. A Big Colony is Located in tha Vast Granaries at Val-etta, in Malta. The recent alterations to the Savoy Hotel, in the Strand, have resulted among other things jr. calling ntion to a remarkable colony of i-wild cats, that has long flourished in the vaults beneath the building. Their ancestors are supposed to have been a pair abandoned by the workmen when the hotel was being built. As their progeny increased in numbers, they* took up their abode in the blackest and least accessible vaults beneath the lowest basement. Whence they emerged only at night. They are extraordinary cats; black and white as to color, with enormous heads; and many of them are nearly eighteen inches tall, and fully three feet in length from tip of the tail to the snout. Similar semi-wild cat colonies exist elsewhere. In Naples, for instance, is a race of nocturnal felines that breed in the vaults beneath the churches. They aro regularly fed by tho authorities, but not too bountifully, for they exist to keep down, so far as possible, tho -hdrdes of mice which infest alh,old Neapolitan buildings. During the daytime they are invariably invisible. But at dusk they leave their lairs, and at the evening services they may frequently be seen walking unconcernedly among the worshippers, or perched, gravely Immobile, upon high al- It Is a fact not generally known, by the way, that somo hundreds of cat colonies aro kept by the British Government. Tho animals receive a regular subsistence allowance, which figures each year in the estimates, and the largo majority of them spend almost entirely underground. THE BIGGEST COLONY of the kind is located in the vast subterranean granaries which have been excavated from tho living rock just outside the city of Valotta, in Malta. Here aro stored grain and other provisions sufficient to maintain the entire population of tho island during a period of seven years: ite a little army of cats is constantly employed in waging wm against the rats and mice that Id, if thoy wero freo from moles-on, play sad havoc.
