FRAU PIETSCH VOL.17.NO.30. FRAU PI JENNA, Jun 12—One of the most fashionable启幕 in VI. Jenna has been closed by the police, and the closing of it has made as much sensation in city as the raids of Judge R. orr apparently have in New York. It was no gambling place which the police of the Austrian capital shut up, but an up-to-date dueling parlor, first in class in all appointments and run for the conversation city and empire. There were really several parlor, in the establishment, and in any one of them a man could "pink" shoot a gentleman with whom he had been the most elegant manner and surrounded in goons furnished if desired and surgical instruments always on hand. These dueling parlor were kept by a woman of herole mold, one Frau Pleitch, who danced with her hands wavy witnessed the gentle and joyous passages at arms. In court she admitted that she had been a witness to two hundred duels in her rooms. She is well versed as any one in Vienna in the ethics of dueling, and expert opinion was then sought by the young bloods of the city when questions regarding the ethics of dueling were under discussion. She was a master of the art, and she was far far far as is known, never fought a real war. When she saw a really superior foster, however, she would ask him, after he had concluded his more serious business, to do her the honor of crossing swords with her in a friendly way. For a number known in certain circles of the capital, and when a man bowed to another man with an especial show of deference and begged the favor of a meeting with him at the house of their mutual friend, Frau Pietch, every one who was really in the house would be given good frau's house stood in a secured court, and the fashionable hour for visiting it was 6 o'clock in the morning. When in the early morning hours two carriages would drive up to the frau's house, the doctor would disengage at the time, and the little affair after the party had come was arranged with neatness and dispatch. After "honor had been satisfied" the survivors were served with refreshments, paid for their entertainment of making a living for Frau Pietch, for she "just adored" the duel. What to her were the tame amusements of the theater or the opera when she could see a duel in her own house nearly complete, and fought by noblemen or gorgous army officers. The frau was getting rich and HANGES in the court will naturally follow the opening of the new reign. These may not be immediate, as in 1838, when the young queen took the place of her uncle, and found the court C tionaries and indolent courtiers; but unless all signs fail the king, when the period of mourning end, will prefer to live in different and more brilliant state than the lamented sovereign. In 1857 the king was forced to simplify; there may now be a reversion to the pomp and glory of monarchy. The young queen passed over the reigns of the Georges and reverted to Queen Anne, and there was a sudden found them, reduced the scale of expenditure. She ascertained that Queen Anne had a privy purse, a groom of the state, a first lady, and ten other ladies of the bedchamber. She considered such ladies to be the most important and was content with a mistress of the robes and six ladies in waiting. Having selected, her court companions she was unwilling to change them for political reasons. She considered that the undue influence of two great court ladies in Queen Anne's time, insisted upon a few changes, the sovereign offered stout resistance. She con- cluded that the queen had begun with dismissing ladies in waiting he would end by discharging her dresses and housemats. This was the bedchamber affair—the queen's only conflict with her constitutional advisers—and she per- formed all the duties she involved the retirement of Sir Robert Peel and the return to office of a prime minister who had been defeated in the Commons. As time went on the queen was more and more involved in staff of functionaries, but it was always a simple, albeit stately, court. During the long period of woodwife Buck- --- enjoying life hugely at the same time, when her husband, who was a quiet man of a most peaceable disposition, who fainted at the sight of blood, broke away from his wife's domination and sued her for a divorce, thus exposing the nature of the business. Her Frut Pletsch declared that life was better fighting in the parlor every night. He was a peaceable man and wanted a peaceable life. He told his wife she must give up her duelling business or give up him, and she decided that she would do the latter with the greatest pleasure in life. So she left the house, a divorce on the sole ground of her obnoxious business, and won his case. Then Frut Pletsch was arrested and sentenced to a long term of imprisonment. When she was sentenced, she broke into a parlor where a duel with swords had just taken place. One of the duellists had received a wound which was being swiped up by the surgeon, while Frut Pletsch stood by, enjoying the operation. She had not been in some time of the nature of Frut Pletsch's business, but had not disturbed her, although she had been warned to be careful. She found it such a profitable business, however, and her clients were of great interest. She dreamed that the authorities would dare ingham palace was only used for a row court functions every year, while she was a member of the court splendor, and at Balmoral and Osborne with extreme simplicity. The king may The duches of Cornwall and Lancaster are practically private estates of the crown, under public management, and £60,000 from one and £40,000 from the other were paid last year to the queen and £10,000 from the other to the civil list and annuities. The revenue are hereditary. Henry IV, conscious that he was more rightly duke of Lancaster than king, reserved his military privileges in the duchy, in addition to the civil list and annuities, and the source to fall back upon. With the consent of parliament he severed these ducal possessions from the crown and settled them on himself and his heirs. During this reign the duchy revenues were divided between reappropriated by Edward IV, were again severed by Henry VII. The duchy, with a chancery court of its own, provides a sinecure for a member of the cabinet not fond of official work; but the use of the sovereign is appropriated for the management have steadily increased during the reign. The duchy of Cornwall, like manner, is a source of revenue for the hire to the throne, and this gained in the course of the reign these duchy payments do not pay through the treasury, but supply extra income to the sovereign and the heir to the throne, the crown lands and minory hereditary revenues provide £475,288 for these duchy payments, which there are charges of £88,500 for curate, salaries of officials and expenses of the royal household and £188,000 for annuities to members of the royal family. The cost of monarchy of the state is compounded by the cost for the New York Tribute, owing to the existence of these resources of crown revenue. As these resources have larger THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY. JULY 27, 1901. FRAU PIETSCH MADE A BUSINESS OF RENTING HER PARLORS IN VIENNA FOR AFFAIRS OF HONOR, AND WITNESSED MORE THAN 200 COMBATS to arrest her. But her husband was a small official under the government, and when he gave such publicity to his wife's dueling parliaments through his suit for divorce the police were obliged to act. In no city in the world could an establishment like that run by Frau Pletsch be considered a lawful officer of the Austrian capital is the very home of the "code," and "everybody who is anybody" has had his affairs of honor. All men of fashion and all army officers night duels and seek to make reputations for themselves as duelists. As a result of the war, the harshness sort, either. It is a more serious matter to send or accept a challenge in Vienna than it is in Paris, and, while the fatalities are not great compared with the casualties of every encounter results in one or both of the duelists being badly wounded. Rapers are the favorite weapons, though cavalry swords are not unpopular, and sometimes pistols are chosen. The latter weapon is the most dangerous, and these regard it as too proxie and commonplace a weapon. Rapers and sabers are regarded as more aristocratic implements to use when one gentleman wants to duel. Frau Pletsch was brought out incidentally that the only place that vied ry increase in income earning value, the new king will have a valid ground for adding for a larger civil list in arranging the investment the conditions of a fresh life tenure and the investment the largement will be justified also by a great increase in the scale of living since 1857. It it costs a rich banker, a venerable merchant or a bachelor of the leisure class more to live in good style than the wealth of a man, also the scale of royal expenditure, and the establishment of great mercantile fortunes, the revels of vanity fair and the swarming of millionaires in the riches of the capital capital in Europe. The chief officer of the lord chamberlain, the lord slew and the master of the horse, and their points are virtually ministerial, and the resignation, will not be vacated by the lord chamberlain, the earl of Clarendon, is new to the office, having recently succeeded Lord Hopeum, who is now in Australia. Like Lord Lathom before him, he is a man of great intellect and a good shifter, a private estate is rich in historic memories, for it contains the ruined castle of Keniworth, and he has been an enthusiastic friend of the king and a good shot. His experience at court, and a good shot, but he is a man of energy, in the prime of life, and is well equipped for the complex duties of his office. The lord chamberlain has additional court functionary who has always been a friend, but during the reign of Henry VIII, he was master of the royal gifts of honor to dance gallards and brides, and guards of armour and dhons with guards of armour and dhons with escort them home after revels. In the reign of James L. he introduced and Defective Page with her parlers in popularity and "good form" as a dueling ground was the courtyard of the imperial barracks. Although the emperor has issued an order for forbidding him to fight, he seems that it has had no effect upon the custom, which is still regarded as one of the cherished institutions of the service. It comes out at the trial that the officers at the barracks habitually permitted the dueling to be a palace by office and ex-officers for a dueling ground. People who had money, of course, preferred to settle their little affairs in the barracks, a good, good price for their vitality, and one could fight in the barrack courtyard for nothing. An officer availing himself of the privileges of the dueling feel in duty bound to ask the officer who was the privilege to take a drink, or possibly, to be his guest at a small luncheon if he survived. But it was a cheaper place than Fran Pietsch's establishment, where the possible damage to the floor by flying pistol balls or sabre and the ruining of the carpets by gentlemen who were carcasses enough to bleed to death, the floor to floor. To fight a duel in the courtyard was an evidence of prosperity and anawer stage managed the masques of Hen Jenson in the Palace Gardens of Whitehall, for the chamberlain is now the adjutant in the office of the clerks and officials under him for the discharge of miscellaneous business. He is also the chief oracle on all points of interest for the arrangements for the reception of royal functions and for the social functions of the court. There is a curious medley of the old and the new, of the fantastic, the picturequeens and the new department. The lord chamberbearer chief subordinates are the vice chamberbearer; the talmiers, with their uniforms and livery ceremonies; and under them are enrolled Rod is the most important officiers. Block Rod is the most important functionaries, and there are gentlemen ushers of the privy chamber, extra gentlemen waiters and pages of the presence, and under them are the state and of the back stairs in a addition of forces of the court, the yeomen of the guard, with their quant costumes, who were in their full glory during the reign of James, and James, an 'imposing bodyguard of guildmen of the back stairs' in the royal knights of Windsor, with the dignity of royal and lower foundations; and a contingent of sergeants-at-arms. These remaster of ceremonies and the marshal of court functions. There is also an canon-plays, the modern double of the old time master of revels. The poet laureate survives in name if his work not only smells of the jewels, but that has burned low in the sockets of court librarian, with a surveyor of pictures, a marine painter and a painter in ordinary. To these are added a master of conductor of the band and a sergeant-at-arms, the keeper of the jewels, a keeper of the swans, a bargeman and an hereditary rank falconer. The lord chamberbearer and accountants and clerks apart from the private staff of secretaries, readers, cooks, stewards and attendants. that one was really a most "swapper" person. No disgrace attached to fighting in the barrack yard, to be sure, but one could not boast of it with quite the same courage as it could speak of having paid an early fee. The Frau Pletsch. The barrack yard was considered good enough for young officers living on their pay. But a "young blood" must fight at the frau's, and was not allowed to enter the "inner circles of society until he had one affair in the good manners parlor. Now it was a distinct shock to society when the parlers were raided, and many nobles and officials of high degree secretly entered the woman whose hospitality they had so often enjoyed clear of her troubles. But society could do nothing for her. The emperor had set his face sternly against dueling, and no one dared to escape the penalty of her crimes. He is not been for the emperor's attitude on the subject, however, she would undoubtedly have gone free, for her friends were pow'r to help her. She is not the "code" in Vienna. All over Austria in fact, dueling continues with unabated activity, although the authorities from the Austrian government have to stop it. They make a bitter attempt in a half-hearted manner, and in spite The court is rich in reminiscences of ancient spender and medieval mummery, of the medieval church and the etiquette of the reigning houses in Europe, performs many useful public functions and is the social center of England. It needs to be conducted with state authority, and it must fulfill the dignity of an imperial capital. It orders and provides diplomatic and so THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: C-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-This not controlled by any ring or olique. 6-It is not controlled by any ring. MAKING A CONFESSION IN COURT of the efforts of the emperor to suppress dueling it has become a sort of national pastime in the empire. Duels are fought over the most trivial matters, and the unsuspecting stranger who accidentally gives offense to one of the young firefighters of Vienna is pretty sure to receive the blow. The stranger may be that the offended person thinks it component with his dignity to cross swords with him. Americans are challenged less than strangers of other nationalities, for an American is apt to knock the challenge to combat, is preoccupied with pistols as the weapon, and with pistols every son of Yankeland is supposed by the Viennese to be a dead shot. Neither are Englishmen much annoyed by the dueling proclivities of Vienna. Visitors to Vienna are often challenged and have to walk a straight line if they want to keep out of trouble. Although all men of fashion in Australia are dueslips, the most inveterate fighters are the officers of the army, who are always at it. Now that the usefulness of Frau Pietsch is impaired by her inexperience, the common jall, one of the favorite topics of fashionable circles is regarding her probable successor. Having got used to fight- seas functions or bermany and distraction, and it promotes in many ways public interest in art, music and drama. The times have changed since it was the duty monarch to admire and admire to stand with bowls of water in which the king and queen could wash their hands before revelling with noblemen at table and joining in the lord's court. Edward VII. has always been fond of color, spectacles and pleasurable excitement; and if his life be spared he can hardly fail to import animation to the Vatican diaries, and last forty years has been somber, with water in a minor key. He will need a larger civil list and possibly he will revise the general arrangements of the court, dispensing with functionaries who have vicious diaries and larging the retinue of courtiers. The millionaire now drives in a carriage little better than that of the fashionable physician who attends to his alliments, or that of a lawyer, and there is the same lack of proportion in the relations of the court and a luxurious Vanity Fair. The monarch monarch needs, mayhaps, to make an impression on the public in order to accentuate his social pre-eminence. The banqueting, the masques, the mummery, the splendides of tapestry, the cloth of gold and the glaze of gold, the jewels of Henry VIII and Elizabeth may be rivalled; but London is the heart of a worldwide empire, and perhaps the monarch will be none the less popular if the palaces are less gloomy and more brilliant cultures of life and mummies than they have been during the Victorian era.

G DUELS MAKING A CONFESSION IN COURT ing in comfortable parlor, the duelists object to being obliged to fight out of doors, and it is thought that some enterprising person will soon fill an aching to that run by an establishment similar to that run by the duelists. There is "money in it for the right parlor." Frat. Pletsch was noted for the fine surruptions in turglets she kept for the use of her customers. She had several in the best condition, all of which she professional pride in her work, as it were. She kept abreast of the times and always had on hand the most modern appliances for dressing wounds and for performing total and minor operations. The good wounds were the process of getting punctured, shaded off to a house a distinguished and genteel operation. Several persons have been mentioned as possible successors of the frau, but so no one has been thought of who cut falls. Then again, she is much missed on account of her knowledge of the "code." There is no none now who can be of such service in giving advice on disputed points. There are old and tried duelists, who have been authorities in their way, but the desiderate nature of their bad desire had become to be considered as laws. Really society there suffered a severe loss when that talented woman was sent to a female cell. Frau Pletsch was fortunate in one of the many who received their women, and died there. Several died as the results of duels fought in her parlors, but they were all polite enough to wait until they reached their homes or the house of a woman, and gave up the ghost. One result of the attack was that Frau Pletsch and the attention which has therefore been called to the prevalence of dueling in Vienna is that the emperor seems to be vain advisers for suggestions as to how to be safe in practice. If it could be made unfashionable the thing would be done, but as it is even the lower and influence of the emperor seems to be futile when opposed to the emperor and made more severe, and the emperor and made more severe, and the members of his court to frown upon it, and endeavor to create a public sentiment against it. At present, however, public sentiment is all in favor of dueling, and the emperor is on the statute books are now seldom used, while fashionable people are inclined to upon Frau Pletsch as a marry. Merr Scherer, a well-known and energetic girl unfortunately short-sighted, pedagogue in the city, was a teacher at the same school she was a short while ago in the Café Bauer, and on arriving home wished to inclose three.

Anlmal Compols Stable-Keeper to Wear Sklet and Sanboauet. Rev. Anna Shaw's friends are rela- ting an incident concerning a horse which Miss Shaw purchased while on @ visit to Cape Cod. ‘The reverend lady is a good judge of horseflesh, be- sides being hichly accomplished in numerous other Ways, She has been heard to declare that David Harum himself would have dificulty in over- Teaching her in the matter of a trade. ‘The Cape Cod animal which she pur- chased proved to be satisfactory as to speed, temper and disposition, and tor several days Miss Shaw looked atter his wants herself, there belng no man on the premises’ just at that time. Rev, Anna finally secured the services of @ man servant just as she was leay- ing to deliver aflecturo in a town not far from Boston. The man entered the stall to perform the usual duties of a stable help and was at once kicked into insensibility. He soon recovered, but refused to go near the horse again ‘and the animal fared rather poorly un- til Miss Shaw's return. ‘Then another man was hired, but he met similar reception. A third keeper was on- gaged, Miss Shaw conscientiously in- forming him as to the experience of his two predecessors. The neweomer made some inquiries as to the ante- cedents of the horse and found that it had always been cared for by the wife of its former owner. Borrowing a skirt and an olf sunbonnét trom Miss Shaw the man went up to the horse in safety and from that day to this has never had any trouble with the animal, ——__,—_ Wisse ie Walne Wica:.

She is not slow in giving her views of peo- ple and events. One day in calling upon her I was speaking of a family that had difleuity in getting along; they were in a chronic state of want winter and summer. She knew them, As I was speaking of their need and trying to got at the best way of re- leving it she broke m upon me: “Mr ‘Weaver, 1 wouldn't vother with those people."’ “Why, Mre.

The young wom an, it seems, ala er own housework and to simplify matters procured one ot those’ famous self-regulating stoves fn whlch the food 1s. placed in. the morning and found pfoperly. cooked at the hour set for dinner ‘without fur ther attention from the occupant of the fiat. Mr. Cable came (down from North- ampton, Mass., to pay bis daughter @ > ine re eceareoetcireat ae, Oo pg > f Cie we} Oe rt Te XZ, Ue YX Or re visit. After breakfast she prepared the dinner, placed it on the stove, sot the indicator at 6 and told her father she would return from the studio in time for the meal, “Now papa, I hate to leave you, but you Just make your- self comfortable.” she sald at the door. “Haye the dinner on'the table when I Set home. I have put it over the stove and it will be cooked to a turn at & o'clock, You need not touch the stove. It ts self-regulating and cooks auto- matically.” Cable watched the appara- tus curiously for awhile. Then he tried to read. The he watched again, then tried to read again. That now-fangled thing worried him. He got nervous and apprehensive, put on bis hat and went ‘out. When Miss Cable camo home and found her father absent anid no din- ner on the tablo she was distressed. Coufd anything have happened? She ‘hastened out and found him walking ‘up and down the street. “Iwas. so afraid of being blown up »by that dreadful stove,” he explained, “I found It impossible to stop in the house.”— Chicago Chronicle.

He was an old river boatman, and he was known for such position on steamers Scott, Edward J. Gay, Baltic and Henry Von Phil. He was one of the proprietors of the noted tonsorial palace at Fourth and Pine streets, which in its day was the home of the governor of the country, patronized by the Prince of Wales, Grand Duke Alexis, Gens.

Barbers, however, are acquainted with this fact and it is rather on account of it than through any desire to bring their patrons back soon again that they do not, unless ordered to, administer close shaves. "A close shave," a learned barber said yesterday, "removes not only the hair, but a portion of the skin as well. It also all over the line of the beard. No blood is visible to the naked eye, but under the microscope a close-shaven face reveals a thousand widely opened pores, each exuding a tiny drop of blood. You know how the sudden removal of heavy clothing tends to bring on cold. How much more, then, does a close shave, which is more nor less than a removal of part of the skin, than that it creates of pores and nerve tips, to induce sore, cold throat and even pneumonia." -Philadelphia Record. A New Alloy. Consul Albert writes from Brunswick in regard to magnalium, a new alloy of aluminium and magnesium, with a percentage of from 2 to 30 per cent of the latter metal. Magnalium, it seems, is free from the bad qualities of aluminium; while it retains its light weight, firmness and tenacity. It is especially applicable in the automobile industry, in electro-technics, aeronautics and dentistry. It can be worked with the file, lathe and planning machine; it is also admirable as a solder, and its pliability adapts it as a border for lenses and eyeglasses. Magnalium is absolutely waterproof and does not rust. Lively interest has been awakened in Sweden by the importation of American gualls. Count Claes Lewenhaupt of Fosfostry has ordered this spring more than 5,000 gualls, costing $3,500, and still more orders are expected. The birds are in sages in cages fifty inch enclosure cages—constructed especially for the purpose. The small lot of American gualls which were set free in Count Lewenhaupt's estate at Claes Lewenhaupt's spring ended the winter cell, and the apparaunt that Sweden has good prospects of an increase in its same birds.

Although the Australian colonies have now been linked together in a commonwealth, it is not probable that the nicknames bestowed by one province on another will be abandoned. The inhabitants of New South Wales have long been known as "cornstalks," an allusion to the length and slimness of the average young South Wales native cattle, and to the suckers," with reference to the gum that is found on many native trees, some of which is relished by juveniles. "Crow-esters," as applied to the South Australians, owes its origin to a statement that in times of drought the wheat farmers of South Australia are driven to the source suggested for the crop. The euphonious name sometimes used for the same province. The Queenlanders are known as "banana landers," that tropical fruit growing there abundantly. Western Australians—or, as they are now generally called, Westlanians—are in the east as "sand gropers" or "gropers." The Westlanians are known all the other states into "other side" and call the residents "other siders." Tasmania, the green little isle that is much like England in climate and other characteristics, is generally regarded as very quiet and rather behind the times, and is referred to as "the land of lots of time," "the land of sleep a lot," and so on, while the inhabitants are known as "suckers" and the latter being an allusion to the great fruit production of the "tight little island."—Lefsure Hours. STILL AN UNKNOWN LAND. Interior of South America Not Explored by Whiting Large areas of the South American continent have never yet been trodden by the foot of civilized man. It will surprise many to learn that there are larger tracts unexplored in that region than in darkest Africa, yet such is the fact. A large majority of the cities along the coasts of South America have been organized into the school, were settled in the Colombian era. Civilization is in fact much older there than in North America. Yet for nearly 300 years there has been not much organized attempt to explore the interior. The first expedition sent out by a South American government was in 1875. Many of the settlers of the region were members of their own territory. Most of the maps in use have been made by explorers from Europe or the United States. The greater part of the immense tract of land in the middle of the continent from Venezuela to Chile has not yet reached the roughest pioneer state of settlement. A considerable part of Colombia is wholly in the Atlantic states even as far north as Uruguay, have many blank sections on their maps. The Guianas, except for a strip along the coast, are practically unknown. The condition of affairs in Brazil is scarcely better. The Brazilian government has no department corresponding to our geographical or coast and geographic surveys. The only exploring done there is through the Amazon. There are large tracts in the northern part of Brazil which have never been crossed, as far as is known, by any white man. The pro tempore boss of Tammany Hall—Richard Croker being on the other side of the ocean—is James J. Coogan of the borough of Manhattan. That worthy recently applied to a Harlem horse dealer to purchase a trotter. The liverman brought out a handsome bay horse. "I'll guarantee that animal to go in 3:00 easy, said the dealer. Coogan understood the man to mean that the horse could go a mile in three minutes and drove the animal up to the speedway to try him. "I found he was a slow plug and could not trot," said the friend of Croker in telling the story. "I drove back to the stable. "Here you,' I said to the dealer, 'you told me this horse could go in three minutes! It took him by the watch. " "Well, you must have been in a deuce of a hurry if you could drive the dealer reepal.
