When King Victor Emanuel III has returned from his visit to the president of the French republic he, with his family, will go to pass part of the summer at the Castle of Racconigl, aoout fourteen miles to the south or Turin. The place is intimately associated with events connected with the Italian Risorglmento which ended In the king of Sardinia becoming the ruler of all Italy. Here the young Victor Emanuel II lived with his mother, Queen Maria Teresa, who was the daughter of Ferdinand III, grand duke of Florence. It was here, also, in the August of 1840, that he saw for the f ? lessons in art as might be learned in a whole gallery of sculpture. Here, in Calandra's Prince Amadeo of Aosta, the simplest spectator may see a sculpture gallery. The person commemorated la the was monument a sympathetic" prince. He was very reluctant to ascend the Spanish throne when, in 1870, he was invited by the Cortes to that dignity. About two years later, several attacks having been made upon his life, he returned to Italy after the sad experience of a thorny throne, and after the death of his wife, caused by her precipitate flight HOW TO SWIM YORK WOMEN TAUGHT THE ART.

The only place in the city where swimming is scientifically taught to women, so far as careful search could determine, la in the baaement of a building uptown, says the New York Sun. Here a stalwart English woman, texwith muscles trained to steel-lik- e ture, laments over the lack of space at her disposal and does the best she eaa with ambitious pupils. Six strokes will take as average swimmer across the tiny pool, and at first sight it would seem a mockery to attempt to teach an art which more than any other demands plenty of space and breathing room.

In a city where so many princes dwell at present, as they have dwelt in the past. It Is natural to expect palaces. 'With these Turin Is well supin which plied. The royal palace King Victor Emanuel II held his court prior to his acquisition of the numerous palaces In the other states of Italy, and which made him master ot more royal residences than probably any other sovereign known to ancient or modern history, is a large but combuilding. It paratively occupies the site of a palace which long ago was Inhabited by the bishops of Turin, which In Its day, was the largest and most magnificent palace In the city. Like most of tho palaces In Italy, it has a spacious court yard surrounded by porticoes. There is a statue representing in bronze the Duke Vittorio Amadeo I seated on a marble horse, with two slaves at his feet abut In marble. This was the only equestrian statue In Turin which, until late years, gave an Idea of sculpture to the Turin people, and it was popularly known as the "marble horse, and was a source of wonder to tho mountaineers who came to the city from time to time.

She was the daughter of the Austrian archduke. Ranierl, viceroy of Lombardia Venezia, who was married to the aunt of Victor Emanual. Thus, when the latter went forward to the making of Italy, he put down from their thrones several of his own relatives. The monuments of Turin constitute a special feature In its objects of in- terest. It has been said that Turin is the city in Italy which has the greatest number of monuments. Nearly every one of its fine squares and Its pleasant gardens is adorned with statues, either in marble or in bronze. One of the most modern of the monuments cf Turin Is that which rises In the vicinity of the Castle Valentino, within a spacious inclosure surrounded by a railing. It represents Prince Amadeo, duke of Aosta, brother ot the late King Humbert, and is the work of David Calandra. a sculptor of a daring genius and abundant artistic resources. Here, again, the prince, who was king of Spain, Is about to shoathe the sword in the flower of his youth and in the most brilliant episode of his life. Here one may read an allegorical evocation of tho most illustrious figures among the princes of Savoy, who express in their lives the valor and the greatness of this race. The motto on the base of the statue reads: With the Ideal and with the example cf hla ancestors!"

One In whom this dread Is not abnormally developed can be taught to keep afloat and make some progross in ten lessons.

It was wonderful what could be accomplished In tho little Bp&co at her disposal. There are many motives loading one to learn to swim. Ono woman frank-ly admitted her method of procedure. "I was dreadfully afraid of tho water, she said. "Always have been so afraid that 1 simply could not make np my mind to go in, although 1 missed many a good time. "One day I went to the swimming school and there acquired enough confidence not to scream when I found that my toes would not touch. 1 only took ten lessons, but that was sufll-ciefor my purpose. The next time I was invited to take a swim of course I didnt apparently know any more than I ever had, but begged one of the men to teach me. There is nothing a man likes quite so well as to teach a woman to swim. Said he to me: " 'You must have perfect confidence In mo, trust mo, with an accent on tho trust.' "I turned my eyes toward him with, a look of absuluia confidence. I had learned It of the little English woman at the swimming school. 'You wont let me drown? I asked pleadingly.
