uo THE DAILY PICAYUNE NEW ORLEANS, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1896. CURRENT COMMENT IN MISSISSIPPI. Governor McLauTin Maj Not Accept the Resignation Of Judge Cooper, Bat There Are Many Aspirants for the Place. WoulcUBe Postmasters Are Cooing Out of the "Woods in Droves. The Tupelo Times on the Alleged De-cadence of Statesmanship "Xorr Quit "i ASA u.iu 218 Capitol Street, Jackson.

Nov. 18. Governor McfLanrin naa not determined the selection he will make for supreme Judge to fill the term or Judge Cooper, which expires May 1. 1S97. There is great pressure from all parts of the state being brought to bear upon the governor not to accept the resignation of Judge And he may not accept It He is certainly considering whether he will accept it or not.

and it Is likely he will react a conclusion this week or early next week. Meantime there are from day to day large delegations of 'awyers from the southern district pressing the claims of the general applicants. An office famine has begun to- rage furiously here in Mississippi. More people want to write postmaster after their name than an idle man can shake a stick at. And there are other offices besides post offices that people are hnnting for all over the state with fierce eagerness.

All this, despite the fact that the electoral college to choose a president has not met, and the inauguration of the president then elected will not take place until March '4, 1897, more than three months from this time. Still, "hope springs eternal In the human breast, and while the time is so tar, many office-seekers hag the hope that the office is so This thirst for office Is Increasing. This is a sad commentary. Time was when people did not wait from one election to another with the hope of getting an office. The number of persons who seem to hope to live on the government, state and federal, la growing.

Office-seeking has become a profession and ranks are daily filling. Well, after all. It is harmless pastime; provided, of course, that the people who are engaged In it have nothing else to do. But for every man who gets an appointment there will be a dozen disappointments. The best thing to do is to have good, steady work, and let office-holding end office-seeking, state and federal, alone.

Teach your boys that there is nothing in it. How many men ever saved a dollar holding office? There Is a limit to every man's popularity. Sooner or later it wanes. Look at the political wrecks that strew he state to-day. How much better off they would have been, now that they are out of office, bankrupt in money, as well as in popularity, if they had devoted half the energy that they have spent trying to get in, and then trying to stay in office, in business pursuits.

Teach the boys to eschew office-seeking. Teach them by example, lell them that office-holding is not what it Is cracked, up to be; tefl them that most politicians dissemble, end that some office-seekers lie like tombstones- And Tin?

Mr. Joseph Withers Power and Miss Eva Truly were married yesterday afternoon at Fayette the consummation of a happy event that has been on the docket for some time. Power is the oldest son of the secretary of state.

His bride, the only daughter of Mr. B. H. Truly and sister of Hon. Jeff.

Truly. The marriage ceremony was most impressively performed by Dr. Morris, of Natchez, In the Presbyterian church, which was exquisitely decorated for the occasion, and which was packed with the relatives and friends of the happy coup.e. Colonel Power and family and Messrs. Robert Henry and Sid.

Craft went from here. The bride was remembered by her friends with many beautiful and costly presents, and numerous telegrams of congratulation were received. Mr. and Mrs. Power are now "at home" at 202 Amite street The Tupelo Times, published at the borne of Hon.

John M. Allen, contains the following thoughtful editorial touching the alleged decadence of statesmanship: 'ThS assertion has frequently been made that we now have no great statesmen. Those who make this assertion satisfy their claims by instituting comparison between the great men of former generations and the public men of to-day, without taking Into proper consideration the conditions surrounding them. They seem to overlook the tact that crises in -a. nation's history have always made demands for particular men, and that these demands have so far always been supplied; that when there nas been no necessity for greatness, there ihas cone been developed.

Again, they do not appreciate the fact that a. great man of years gone by, when the people were fewer in number, would hardly bs as great In the same way to-day, when the population of the country numbers 75,000,000. Ins other words, they do not seem to -understand that to bs a statesman to-day requires greater statesmanstftp than ever before in tie history of the country. Still the assertion is not without some foundation. "It Is an indisputable fact that for ten years or so politicians have been more prominent In national affairs than statesmen? It is also true that as a consequence legislation, national and state, has partaken more of selfish partisan politics than of anything As the result, those who claim tha we have no great statesmen at present have the preponderance of evidence in support: of their contention, but this evi- BVAtiM IrrvrtCT I w- rwl 1 a rial Ha si a V4- VV UUIVI aiUUVOb llUUIVUMkVIJ as pelled should a crisis arise to create demand for greatness.

Someone has said- that the cause always finds the -man; it always has and always will, so that to deplore the man is to Invite the cause, which would be very unwise, for this nation is not in need of more acute crisis. The people progress much more satisfactorily undisturbed In their usual routine; they are happier and much safer Is ell their interests. "Still, if -there was less politics in the administration of affairs of this country; that is, less politics of the distinctively and selfishly partisan order If there was more politics characterized by pure and unadulterated patriotism, the people would be much better off than they now are. And there would be afforded more and greater opportunities for the latent abilities of men in the realm of statesmanship, consequently less apparent evidence of the lack of statesmen. So that the remedy for the evil charged by persons who deny that we-now have any great statesmen lies with the people themselves.

If the people who do the complaining would increase the opportunities for statesmanship insisting on legislation exclusively for the country as a whole, there would result a change In the personnel of all branches of government that would bs for the better that would depreciate In a large measure the assertion now so frequently made. Under the caption of "Stop It," the Newton County Progress says Some newspapers are so ill-tempered and partisan in their general make up that they seem to be opposed to a revival of business hmr fro AllrcF a feated. They pretend that the revival is a myth, that the mills and factories were shut down Just before the election to force employes to vote the Republican ticket, and even one went so far as to say Hanna with his many barrels put on the price of cotton and wheat for the purpose of increasing the rote of the Republican ticket. That Is one of those no. necessary and foolish arguments that Children Cry for i A Lost Voice, i Advertising will do a great 8 many things, but it won't bring I 1 1 about the return of a lost I voice.

Of course all of this is a direct insult to the millions of voters who supported the Republican They know too well that they were neither bought nor scared into voting for McKinley. And such aigunient had no effect on the honest man who supported the free silver ticket. Such newspapers should drop this partisan feeling and welcome with all their heart the return of business and confidence.

Their readers would certainly appreciate their efforts In this line, while on the other hand they have serious doubts as to their sincerity in the advocacy of the free silver movement. When the war Is over, why not drop the war whoop, bury the hatchet and make glad the waste places resulting from the many battles. Stop it and go to work for the good of the country and try to correct the many grievous errors that have already been made. This country cannot be sustained on politics alone. We must have something more substantial for the soul and body.

We must have more of the sub-stantlals of life and of religion and less, politics. According to the Topeka (Kan.) Mall and Breeze, Mississippi leads. The Mail and Breeze finds the following post office figures in the recent department report: The report of the United States postmaster general shows some impressive Indications of how the southern part of this union is progressing. There has been no great net Increase in the number of post offices established this year only 896, in fact but of these more than 25 per cent were In five southern states, Kentucky, Georgia, Mississippi. Arkansas and Texasu It Is significant that in the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylvania and New all taken together, only a little more than a third as many new post offices enough to satisfy all but those who want to be postmasters.

It is surprising to find that more new offices were established In the one state of Mississippi than in the four northwestern states of Montana, Washington and the two Dakotas. These facts point unmistakably to the direction in which capital and population Is traveling. The Enterprise Times jasks: "Why not bave an east Mississippi exposition and fair at Meridian next year? it would result in giving an incentive to agriculture and every branch of industry, as well as to afford a season of rare enjoyment to our people. It might be better to make it Interstate, and secure the co-operation of the neighboring counties of Alabama. What say the newspapers of this section and the papers and business men of Meridian?" The same paper says: "While the Times advocated the election of Bryan with all its ability, it is amusing, if not disgusting, to read the lame excuses of some of our contemporaries for his defeat.

He simply failed of sufficient strengtU in his following to secure a majority in the electoral college, and that is the sole reason of bis defeat." Under the caption of "Now Quit Fooling," the Coffeeville Courier says: "It has been painfully apparent that the wild and woolly populistic sentiment, which would listen to nothing that did not savor of abuse for the Cleveland administration, has had full sway, and the politician who could not open his lungs and belch forth these anathemas, was simply a 'gold bug heretic and no Democrat. The result has been that such men as John M. Stone, Stephen D. Lee, G. D.

Shands, S. S. Calhoun, Judge Brame and a host of other sound leaders have had nothing to say. The time is now at hand for a change. The 'free silver has had its day, and the sound business sense of the American people will again be felt throughout the land."

Solomon Zelgier was put on the stand to make his statement. He made it with little hesitation. His father had told him on his deathbed, he said, that while coming home upon the Sylvanla train he heard George Bellinger make a statement that he considered an insult. He spoke to the negro about it and Sheriff Brooker took the matter up. Brooker cursed Zelgier, but friends separated them.

His father left the train to avoid a difficulty. When the train reached Zelgler's station, Brooker called out to him from the car: "Come on and go to Sylvanla and I'll fix you, you My father started into the car, and was shot by Brooker. I ran Into the car, and Brooker shot at me, the bullet grazing my neck. I rushed Into the car and almost before I knew It had taken Brook-er's pistol from him and shot him. I went back to my father.

His throat was cut. I asked him who cut his throat. He toJd me Connor Williamson. Two or three hoars later my father died. Before the death of his father, the prisoner said, he went into the train as It was passing Sylvanla to see a lady.

He looked around and saw a man holding a gun at his head. It was Connor Williamson. He took the gun away from him and beat Williamson severely with my fist. After my father's death, said Sol, I went before Justice Jennings and secured a warrant for Brooker for murder. He was allcwed to give bond.

I went before the grand Jury to Indict him, but Instead of indicting him they indicted me for assaulting Brooker. Brooker. he said, had sworn to have revenge; he told Mr. Hurst in the grand jury-room that Sol Zeigler had nearly done him up and that he would kill me if It took him ten years to do it. He told Preacher Thompson he would kill Corril and I the first chance he got.

He told Mr. Arnett the same thing. I told Mr. Arnett I wished Brooker would go on and let me alone, as I did not want to kill any one. At Goliad, at the Baptist Association, I carried my gun with me, as I always did after Brooker's threats.

At Goliad I and some friends were in a carriage -when Brooker and some friends came up behind us. I made some excuse and got out of the carriage and went to look at Mr. Faster' horse. We afterwards went back to the carriage, but as Brooker was still there we went np to the church. The sheriff followed ns there.

We separated. This -went on for some time. Everywhere we went he would come. He looked at us with unfriendly glances. Mr.

John Hnghes reported to me that Brooker had said that he would kill my brother and myself before the day was ended; that he was going to be the last man to leave the grounds that day. Some one asked Brooker what he would do If the Zeigler boys had their rifles. "I have got rifles myself," he replied. A friend of the Zeiglers reported to them, according to the statement, that Brooker had rifles In his buggy. Just before the killing, Solomon said he was helping his friend gear np his team.

Brooker and man came np talking low. The defendant heard Brookes say: "Boys, this Is onr last chance to get them. It was those threats, be said, that forced the killing In self-defense. Pitcher's Castorla. COAL RATES LIKELY TO BE ELEVATED.

Conference of Southern Freight People to Agree on a TarifE Close Competition and Reverses Bring the Lines Together. G. A. Williams Elected President of the Freight Bureau. Board of Directors to Hold an lm-portant Meeting Shortly The Sunset Limited.

President Flnley, of the Southern, arrived in the city yesterday morning on the Louisville and Nashville train. The train was due at 7:30 and arrived at 11:30, being four hours late. Vice President Knott, of the Louisville and Nashville, was also among the arrivals in the city. These two gentlemen and President Harvey, of the Northeastern, got together and a conference was held. As a result of this conference, at which was present Also General Freight Agent Green, of the Southern, at Birmingham; General Freight Agent Hardy, of the Northeastern; General Freight Agent Shepard, of the Louisville and Nashville, and other freight people, there is probability of the coal rate being better maintained.

It may not be generally known that for some time past there has been more or less uneasiness In coal situation in New Orleans, consequent upon, the competition which the Southern, In conjunction with certain Alabama coal companies, was giving the Pittsburg people, and those lines which haul their coal in here exclusively by a rail route. The Southern shipped Its coal over its own lines to Greenville on the Mississippi river, from whence it was shipped here by barges, and sold at a less rate than the Pittsburg people could afford to do. As result of this competition, it is said, the other lines Interested In a rail haul, the Northeastern and 'Louisville and Nashville particularly, decided that they could not afford the reductions that were being thus worked In their coal revenues, and that overtures were made the Southern to establish a better uniformity of rates. This was supposed to have been the object of the meeting, yesterday. Indeed, such was the statement of prominent official of the Northeastern.

There was no decision reached in the matter. The railroad people who attended the meeting were found Teluctant to talk about what was done. It was currently reported in railroad circles that the meeting was an effort to form a combine and raise the rates on coal, which would mean an increase in the prices, but this was denied by the Northeastern official referred to. Cdr. Dunn, who represents the Southern's coal interests here, likewise denied the story, saying that he knew nothing of.

such a thing. There Is nevertheless some probability that, as a result of the meeting, there will be a slight change in the prices of coat Since the Southern established Its new route via Greenville end the Mississippi river some losses have been sustained by the sinking of barges, all of which has probably brought that road to the conclusion that It would be best to come to some agreement with the other routes as to rates. Flnley was to have left the city again last night, but he remained over, and will be here until this morning. Mr; Knott will also remain over, as will General Freight Agent Shepard and the other officials. It was reported that these gentlemen remain over for the purpose of meeting with a large party of Pittsburg coal people, who will arrive here this morning.

These people, of whom there is a special car, were expected to have arrived last night over, the Louisville and Na'shvlile, but did not do so. rhey stopped over at Gulf port for the purpose of inspecting the new road there, and are looked for this morning. These gentlemen are said to have an engagement here with Mr. Flnley and Mr. Knott, but this is again denied by some of the railroad people, who say that there is no possible connection between the two parties.

Among the party of coal people, many of whom are from Pittsburg, are also several prominent capitalists from Scranton, who come south, it is understood, for the purpose of looking at the country. There was so much talk about the coal combine among railroad people that a Picayune reporter sought out several coal dealers and asked them regarding the matter. They were found ignorant however, of the entire affair. The Northeastern freight people said that the object of the meeting was simply to arrive at a better adjustment of rates on coal, which, as stated, is construed by others to mean that there will be a contract made, between all competitive lines by which a systematic and uniform rate will be maintained. The fear and probability is that this rate will be higher than any which has heretofore applied which will result in an increase ail over the city in the price of coal.

BUREAU OF FREIGHT AND TRANSPORTATION. The first meeting of the new board of directors of the Bureau of Freight and Transportation was held yesterday evening la the office of Commissioner Masters, and the following officers were elected for the ensuing year:" G. A. Williams, president; E. M.

Kilpa trick, first vice presdent; A. Baldwin, second vice resident and treasurer; George eahy, secretary, and W. H. Masters commissioner. There was no other business of importance attended to, as this was the first step necessary.

It Is likely, however, that a meeting of the board will be held in a few days for the purpose of taking-up much, more important matters concerning the future of the bureau. The gentlemen who have been selected to look after the bureau for the next year are all well known in the city as men of ability and commercial wisdom. As soon as practicable there will be some new moves inaugurated by. the officers, moves which are destined, no doubt, to work out a great good for the commercial interests of the city more than have already been accomplished. THE SUNSET LIMITED.

The Sunset train, which left yesterday for San Francisco and the west, bad over seventy passengers on board, which Is an excellent showing. This Is as large almost as any of the largest trains which last season went out on this service. The train, however, left the Morgan depot two honrs late, at 12 o'clock, instead of 10. This was a source of great annoyance to the passengers, and Is an evil railroad people say- the Southern Pacific will have to abate If rt is desired to keep up the popularity and prosperity of the Sunset. The Southern Pacific people, however, are not at all to blame' The fault lies with the Southern connections.

The Southern, from some cause or other, Is not able to get Its portion of the Sunset business Into the city on time. The Sunset limited depends largely upon the Louisville and Nashville and Qneen and Crescent routes for its passengers, and when the trains are three or four hours late, as yesterday, it is necessary to wait npon them. Tha Louisville and Nashville part of the run from Atlanta seems to be made on schedule time, but beyond that point there are so many connections to be made that rt looks as if the popularity, of the Sunset is to be Injured on that account. In defense of the Southern, however, It may be said that Its officials are all the time seeking to keep up to schedule time. The people who run that road are presumed to be interested In making close connections here with the Sunset, and, therefore, any failure to do so is attributed rather to an actual Inability than to any other cause.

RAISING THE STORAGE HATES. (Special to the Picayune.) Galveston, Nov. 19. The directors of the Wharf Company held meeting to-day and decided to advance tha ele vator charges on strain stored from 1-4 cent per bushel for each fifteen days over the free period, of thirty days to 1-2 cent a bushel for each ten days' storage. After tha free period the-charges for reviving and forwarding grain will remain as heretofore.

The elevator charges of the 'Wharf Company1 are extremely low, so low, in fact, that grain has been held at their elevator, practically, on storage. Unfortunately, the Wharf Company has not the room necessary to store large quantities of grain, and their action to-day was seemingly justified, as an incentive to shippers to get their grain oat of the elevator during the thirty days following Its receipts. There is no disposition, on the part of the Wharf Com pany, to arbitrarily increase Its charges. The action to-day purposes to move the grain at a rapid rate, so that such elevator facilities as the port has may be used to the greatest advantage to the greatest number. THE GRANT BOOM.

(Special to tha Ploaynne.) Dallas, Nov. 19. The friends of Dr. John Grant, of Sherman, met this afternoon, pursuant to call, in Turner Hall, to give Impetus to a movement to boom the doughty Republican leader-for a position la President-elect McKlnley's cabinet. The postmaster-generalship Is the place that has been picked out for him, but his friends are not particular as to Jobs, so long as Texas and Mr.

Grant are recognized. About 150 persons were in attendance, and the state was pretty well represented. A caucus pre-" vlous to the meeting was held at the Oriental. This caucus mapped out a programme. W.

C. Lone Introduced O. I. Evans to the meeting as temporary chairman. Both men made speeches.

Mr. J. M. McCormlck was chosen to preside permanently. Half a dozen letters were read from "Big Medicines" of the Republican party in Texas, to the effect that McKinley couldn't do much running the government without Dr.

Grant. THE "KATY" COTTON STATEMENT. (Special to the Picayune.) Galveston, Nov. 19. The freight traffic department of the K.

and T. Railroad has just issued a very complete cotton statement, which, summarized, giveg the following interesting figures of the cotton situation on la lines in Texas up to the 1st of November: Number of bales on hand, 72,8331 In sight, 129.2G9: total, same time 'A8rLear' 44529: decrease this season, Adding to this number the amount shipped on hand and In sight at Indian stations (total shows a grand-total ior Texas and the Indian territory of 421.270 bales, against 455,432 last, year, a decrease of 34,182 bales. WINTER TOURIST RATES TO BE ABOLISHED. (By Associated Press.) Chicago, 111., Nov. 19.

The roads of the Trans-Missouri Association to-day announced that Nov. 25 they will abolish winter tourist rates to all points in their territory east of the tracks of the Illinois Central, including New Orleans. The exception to the rule will be that the rates are still made to the southeast of Colorado common points. This exception is made necessary by the Denver and Colorado road, which has declined to Join the other roads in their action. MEN AND MATTERS.

John Weltzel, formerly In the Iocs' office of the HHnoIs Central, now chief clerk with Mr. Hurlbutt at Memphis, was In the city yesterday. The private car of Superintendent- D. Northeastern. No.

His Power in Asia "Was Greater Than an Emperor's. The Rollicking Sassoon Who is Intimate With the Prince of Wales. Although the late Sir Albert Sassoon was Indebted to the prince of Wales for his recognition and acceptance by what Is know as the smart element of London society, ret there Is no- truth, whatsoever either In the Insinuations, or even the direct assertions printed. In bo many of his habituaries to the effect that owed his title to the heir apparent, who had obtained It for him as a return for money loaned. It Is quite possible that Sir Albert may have lent ISie prince money, -barging him interest at the rate of 9 per cent, which is the rate that h-ls royal highness has been called upon to pay for each of the loans that he has secured from English or foreign financiers.

But Sir Albert received his knighthood, his order of the Star of India and his baronetcy for entirely different services, for services rendered not to the prince, but to the state and to the nation. Few of those who saw this dusky ana somewhat greasy-looking oriental, bloated and unwholesome looking in bis declining years, driving about with Mrs. Langtry, to whose financial rescue he came at the time of her husband's ruin and her own inauguration of a theatrical career, realized the enormous power which he wielded throughout the length and breadth of Asia. In the dangerous passage of Afghanistan, 4n the province of China, where white men are most abhorred, in the most fanatio of the Khanites in the wilds of Arabia, aye, even among all the Arab tribes, which infest the northern and centr.il portion of Africa, a pass-port or safe conuuet bearing the signature of the Sassoons constituted an infinitely better protection than any papers bearing the stamp and seal -(x) of the czar of liussia, the emperor of China or of Queen Victoria, em-press of India. No Asiatic prince, no Arab chief would ever dream of doing anything to oCTend the Sassoons, knowing by experience that they never, forget an Injury, that they constitute one of a class that never forgives an outrage on one of its members, and that to be boycotted by financiers when there are troops to pay, firearms and ammunition to be obtained, whims to carry out and harems to keep contented and in luxury.

Is. to say the least, inconvenient. Sir Albert was the head of the greatest of all these Asiatic banking houses, the operations of which, as stated above, extend throughout the northern and central portion of the African continent. The firm has been in existence for well-nigh 300 years, and it is a curious fact that in spite of the wars of the revolutions and of the almost continual strife that have been raging around it on every side, no attempt should have been made to confiscate its vast wealth or to loot any of Its Innumerable branch offices. Its headquarters were formerly at Bagdad, where old Sir Albert was born, but were subsequently to Bombay, a city which owes much to the boundless charity of this Mesopotamlan Hebrew, whoss first name of Albert contrasted so strangely with his second name of Abdallah.

Most of the money loaned by the Sassoons. and It Is their money that finances almost the entire native trade of Asia and northern Africa, is lent on personal security, often in astonishingly large amounts, and is repaid, as a rule, not In money, but In goods, so that the Sassoons In reality have reaped a double return on their advances, namely the interest on the money and the profit, often very great, on the sale of the goods. And, though nothing but personal security is ever asked by the Sassoons of these native borrowers from every part of the Asiatic and African world, yet their losses are few and far between, infinitely less so. indeed, than those of any European or American bank, ttie traders knowing that "to fall the Sassoons" would be to lose the very possibility of ever trading again. They are honest In the payment of their debts, not from any question of high moral principle, but merely by reason of policy.

This explanation may give some faint Idea of the extent of the vast power. ana nnuence quietly, suenny, yet, nevertheless, suiely wielded by Sir Albert Sassoon. and when one remembers that this Influence was ever at the disposal of the British government, which possesses such huge Interests In Asia and Africa, It Is only surprising that. Instead of contenting herself with rewarding the services of Sir Albert with a mere baronetcy, the queen should not have conferred a peerage upon him. The Sassoon best known to Americans Is the late Sir Albert's brother, Reuben, who Invariably accompanies the prince of Wales each summer to Homburg, acting as "master of revels." as purveyor of amusements and organizer ef entertainments to his somewhat blase royal highness.

It was Reuben, too, who was mixed up In the famous baccarat scandal at Tranby Croft, he having been the donor of those particularly gorgeous baccarat counters, without which the prince never travels. He is married to a remarkably beautiful and clever woman, a MIrs Perugia, of Trieste, sister of the equally lovely Mrs. Leopold Rothschild, and his nephew, Sir Edward Sassoon, son and heir of the late Sir Albert, may be said to constitute another link between the grandest banking-house of the Occident and the greatest banking business of the Orient, having married a daughter of Baron Oustave Rothschild, of Paris. The young qneen of Holland, having now been confirmed and promoted to long dresses, may be said to have completed her education, and she is no longer under the control or subject to the discipline of governesses. Miss Winter, the 'English governess, who has been for so many years In charge of the young queen, is considered to have terminated her task, and not an easy one by any means, aqd has now returned to her home in England, pensioned for life to the tune of $2500 per annum, her salary having been S4000 a year.

Moreover, she has been loaded with presents by both queens, who bave really much for which to be grateful to her, the education of a youthful sovereign being at all times a most difficult and responsible piece of work. Some astonishment is expressed that she should have" been allowed to depart without receiving any title of nobility. Queen "Victoria's German governess, Miss Lehzen, was created a baroness by the duke of Saxe-Coburg and Goth; at her. request, the late King Alfonso's governess, who, likewise, served In the' same capacity to bis son, the present king of Spain, was created a countess, and there are quite large number of French. German and Spanish noblemen of the present day, who are Indebted for their titles of marquis or count to the fact that either one or another of their ancestresses served as wetnurse to some youthful king or other.

The entire Paget family. Including Mrs. Almerlc Paget, nee Whitney, of New York, and Mrs. Arthur Paget, daughter of the late Mrs. Paran Stevens, are thrown Into mourning by the death of Lord Alexander Paget, brother of the marquis of Anglesey, and by far the most popular member of his family.

He was known as "Dandy" Paget, and, in contradistinction to the marquis, was chivalrous, courteous, handsome, dignified, and. above all, kindly. His sudden death, while out shooting in Scotland, is a great and deeply regretted loss to London -society. MARQUISE DB FONTENOT.
