Billion Candle Power
Light to Guide Flyers
; European Airways Are Rapidly
Being Equipped to Make
Night Travel Possible
j LONDON, Nov. 81 (By Mail).
i Preparations for night flying on the
; airways of Europe are rapidly pro
i ceeding, reports "The Times."
The French Air Ministry lias just
acquired a new aerial lighthouse that
exceeds in candle-power and intensity
anything that has yet been attempted
j either in aerial or marine lighthouses.
Showing a flashing power of one
thousand' million candles it will be
visible from a distance of -00 miles,
; and will be the guiding light for night
lair expresses entering or ?caving the
'Paris aerodrome at Le Kourget from
! the south. The new lighthouse will be
'. ertcccd on Mount Africa, a hilltop
? seven miles from Dijon, mine; to a
I height of 1.500 feet.
On the London airways seven aerial
i lighthouses are now in operation or on
; the point of completion. The stretcli
I of airway between the London air sta?
tion at Croydon and the coastal air
', junction at Lympne i? now Illuminated
by four lighthouses, flashing distinctive
- signals. They are so arranged that an
! air express pilot proceeding either to
j or from London and the Continent will
| always be in sight of one of them. Jn
' addition, it is proposed to make altera?
tions in the Varne lightship, which is
moored in mid-channel, so that it will
i act as a guide not only to shipping
1 passing up and down the Channel but
? also to aeroplanes flying above it.
Ancient Oath ot Office
Still Used on Isle of Man
DOUGLAS, Isle of Man, Nov. 14 (By j
j Mail). The appointment of two new ;
: "deemsters" or members of the legis- ?
lativc council of this island has just
called attention to the peculiarities of ;
j the ancient oath they take on the Bible
' when assuming office. It reads:
"By this book, and by the holy con- '.
i t?.'nt.s thereof, and by the wonderful ;
| works that God h?th miraculously ;
: wrought in heaven above and in the
? earth beneath in six days and seven :
I night , I do swear that ? will execute -
: the laws of this island justly between
: our sovereign Lord the King and his
subjects within this isle, and betwixt '
; party and party, as indifferently as the
herring backbone doth lie in the mid- !
! die of the fish."' The Isle of Man, which ;
! is well known as a pleasure resort an-'
! is situated in tho Irish Sea, has its
own legislature and is not bound bj
? any acts of Parliament unless it is

Argentine P. O. Department
Victim of Stamp Swindle1
BUENOS AYRES, Nov. S (By Mail).|
? A swindle of lare/e proportions has
1 been perpetrated on the Argentine
Postoffice Department by the printing
r.nd sale of false live-cent stamps. The
sale of those stamps apparently lias
been going on possibly for years, but
it was only recently discovered. The
department has ordered the withdrawal
of the issue in qusetior..
The PostofRce Department admitted
that the fraudulent stamps were prac?
tically Identical with the authorized
ones and that it was not possible to
trace the source of the questionable
supply. Five-cent stamps bearing the
portrait of General San Martin no
longer aie accented in payment for

Recounts Old. Davs
! Marie Jordan de Degollado.
Oiiee Virginia Belle, Is
80 Years Old and Lives!
in Solitude in Mexico Cily j
MEXICO CITY, Nov. 23 (By Mail to
The Associated Press). A shriveled.
j gray-haired little woman, almost blind j
and living wholly alone, Bits all day in j
? her chair before the window of her tiny !
? apartment in Mexico City and dreams |
1 of the days of the Mexican Empire,
when the Austrian Archduke Maximil?
ian ruled the destinies of the nation, !
from 1864 to 1867. She is Se?ora Marie'
Othelia Jordan de Degollado, scion of
an old Virginia family and widow of
General Mariana Degollado, member of|
a family famous in Mexican history.
During the three nagte years of
Maximilian's reign she was a lady-in
waiting t" Empress Charlotte, the "sad \
princess of Europe," and to the corre- j
spondent she. recently recalled some in- ;
teresting memories of court days dur
ing the Mexican Empire.
Maximilian, the ill-fated Austrian!
prince who was set up as head of the I
empire by Napoleon III in 18l'4 and :
three years later was shot as an ,
usurper by order of ihe Mexican 1'resi- j
dent Juarez, was described by Se?ora i
Degollado as "a beautiful character, j
sympathetic ami capable, bu! too amia- ?
ble to govern n nation of malcontents."
Empress Charlotte, daughter of Leo-j
pold I. King- of the Belgians, who is j
still living in Brusselis, according to i
Se?ora Degollado, was "an ambitious
genius who was always striving to ad- \
vanee her husband and whose mind be- j
came unbalanced when she found the'
path blocked.-' Se?ora Degollado has
never . een the empress since she de- i
parted from Mexico City in July, 1866,
to plead the cause of the empire before ;
the French monarch and later to go to i
Rome to attempt to secure the good
nrRces of the Cope. So far as she
knows, no direct word has been re- ?
ceived in Mexico from Charlotte in ;
more than fifteen years, and that only \
an incoherent note to the wife of a i
former high Mexican official.
"The Empress le;t hurriedly on ' ei
European trip," said Se?ora Degollado,
who, despite her eighty-odd years, re
tains a remarkably clear memory, "and \
was accompanied only by her personal I
maids. For many days prior to her j
departure there were evidences of her!
failing rea: on a nd w 2 ?,. c re not , ur
prised to hear of her acute affliction
several months later. T ; m positive
that there is absolutely no truth i :
the repet?s that she was poisoned be?
fore she left Mexico. And the Em?
peror! He was possessed of evi ry kind '
element of nature. He was too good.:
He listened to treacherous advice and
was shot. That day was an evil one
| for Mexico."
Se?ora Degollado was in Mexico City |
whet: Maximilian was. shot, in Quere- !
taro, and although .'tie had an oppor?
tunity to view the body before it was.]
? 'nipped to Vjenna, she declined, prefer-i
i ring to remember him as she knew him. I
' Within a few days alter the Em
j peror':-; death she and her husband fted
! to Guatemala, where they lived for sev
\ eral years until Porfirio Dias became
I President of Mexico.
Born in Norfolk, Va.. Miss Marie
? Jordan went to Washington with her
father during the early day;; of the
Civil War and there met Mariana
? Degollado, who was attached to the
Mexican Embassy. They were married
in Washington and later cunt'- to Mex?
ico, '."itere her husband's father, Geu
| eral Santo;- Degollado, was one of the
most prominent men of the day. A
street and plaza in Mexico City still
bear his name.
Se?ora Degollado believes that, she
[is the last, survivor of the court fa- ?
vorites of the Emperor Maximilian.

"You could hardly expect, a man to

: Alexander were found by Mrs. Stillman

When asked if Anne had broken ivilh ;

"There in no reason why she should. :
"A hy should children become "involved

have told them thai they showed their

children arc going to have lunchoon
with him on Wednesday. I told them |
to go. There is no reason they j
shouldn't. There is no hostility toward >

Mrs. Stillman and ''Budd" will go to ;
Montreal to attend the hearings in the |

Mexico City is located on record as !
opposed to boys ami girls witnessing I

of "El Univeral," long ago placed him-?

to bullfights, although, in deference to j
