RICH GIRL FOR EARL
Lord Yarmouth Engaged to a Beau
tiful Heiress.
M Has Old Title, Bat la
Short ot Money l oans Womma'a
Mother Mroagly Oppoard
to Match.
Announce nit-ut has been made of the
engagement of the eurl of Varmoutb
to Miss Mary Thaw, duugbur of the
late William Thaw, the millionaire, of
rituburg, who bus pu.su d the winter
In Wushiuton. Mrs. Mary Thaw,
mother of the young woniun, makes
the announi't ineut, but with the com
ment to her friends that "there is a
long distance between the announce
ment of un engagement and niar
ringe." Mrs. Thaw, however, is stern in de
nouncing te ulliaiK t", and w ill cut Miss
Thaw oft iroin a few millions of dol
lars at her death. However, from al
most no income at nil to several mil
lion dollars, the amount of MissThuw'a
personal fortune, seems un alluring
step to the earl, and when it is owned
by a pretty and vivacious American
girl, it is doubly worth his long ef
forts to secure a wife in this country.
The earl of Yarmouth came to Wash
ington from New York some weeks ago
as a guest of Harry K. Thaw, at bis
Uifuyette square house, and almost
immediately the attachment between
the earl uml Miss Thaw became cur
rent lulk. The rumor of their engage
nit'iit gained rapidly in society, but
was warmly denied by Mrs. Thaw. Aft
er an evident failure to bring the earl's
visit to a close, because his suit was
highly favored by Mr. Thaw, Miss Thaw
was gotten ready on short notice and
sent to her sister, Mrs. (ieorge t'nrne
gic, at Cumberland island, their win
ter home on the southern coast of
Florida.
Mrs. Thaw shut up the home in I.a
favette sniinrc rk'lit in the middle of
the sociul season, an action which in j U' b,,s thi"-'s l'tr1rt ily for one r.a
itsclf was u great surprise to all who "'"1 another. How often the years
knew her. She urged as a reason im- show success written over defeat and

Earl of Yarmouth.)
riished with what her mother consid
ered proper company for the journey
to the south.
After the train was well on the way
out of Washington, a well-dressed
young Englishman in the sleeper just
ahead of the special car made some
inquiries as to the identity of those
in the special, and a few minutes later
the card of the earl of Yarmouth was
carried by a porter to Miss Thaw, who
expressed the greatest surprise at the
coincidence.
The earl accompanied the party to
Fernandino, Fla., where they were met
by Mrs. George Carnegie, with the Car
negie yacht. The earl was presented,
and evidently was well received, as he
was a guest of the Carnegies for the
remainder of his stay in Florida wa
tr9, where tarpon fishing and other
pastimes were provided in plenty.
Mrs. Thaw learned of the carl's visit
to the south, and the manner of his
going, and forgetting the important
business affairs in Pittsburg, posted to
the south in her effort to head off the
Impending engagement. From the
announcement just issued, it is evident
she failed.
The earl of Yarmouth is the eldest
son of the marquis of Hertford, and
Is almost as well known in the east ns in
London, having come to America three
years ago in the hope of retrieving his
fortunes, as his title, although one of
the oldest in Kngland, is entirely with
out estates. He is well known in the
atrical circles, having played a short
engagement lit one-night theaters ami
written for the daily papers on the
atrical topics. He had not been prom
inent in Washington society, but met
Harry Thaw abroad, and came to the
cnpital as his guest, after it visit to

is gratifying that
although his past deeds were responsi
ble for sonic crimes, his present ex
hortations in commendation of a bet
ter life may intercept the foolish in a
course of emulation of his earlier coa
duct. All the poetry of desperado ro
mance is ground out of Cole Younger.
He now sees it in its proH-r light, und
in a long perspective a perspective
of 20 years. All the moonbeams art
gone now. He is perhaps the sincerest
man in this country in his conviction
that having a good time ut others' ex
pense is the falsest philosophy that
ever gained a foothold in the human
mind. The stories of crime are inter
esting only to those who have never
been involved in any. Like many other
things read about, imagination fur
nishes all the scenery and trappings
which hide the unsightly aud repellent
background. Cole Younger may yet
do some good in the world by rrveul
ing their folly to simpletons.
In the yard of Jacob Abbott's coun

his grandchildren and their frieuds,
stood a squure stone bearing this no
tice: "If any child gets cross uud
sulky and cries, he can go und sit cu
the 'crying-stone' just ns long as he
wants to, and cry it out." So heu
ever u boy or girl did sulk, Pr. I.y
imm Abbott records, all the rest of
the children wjuiM clamor: To the

and seldom did any child take uihau

HILL TOSSING AN OLD PENNY
Nebraskan Declined to Discuss Issuea
and Candidates For Next National
Campaign His Opinion of the Re
publican Congress.
Toledo. O.. March 10. Colonel W. J.
Dryaa was in the city yestciday after
noou. 'He was prevailed upon to dis
cuss politics. He told of his recent
visit to New York, and added that the
people in that state knew less about
politics than they do in the West.
"They asked me about Judge Par
ker," he said, "and 1 told them I could
say nothing until I knew his attitude
on public questions. They answered
that he was a judge, and it would not
be proper for him to discuss political
topics."
"What do you think Hill intends to
do?"
"Well, I think Mr. Hill Is tossing a
penny to see whether he or Judge Par
ker will run. The trouble with the
plan Is that Hill has an old penny that
he has tossed so often that he doesn't
know which side is head and which
is Ull."
"What have you to say regarding
the record tit congrcsB?"
"What congress has done Is easily
ascertained. Kind out how much there
was in the treasury before thu session
began, and find out how much there 1h
now. The wonder is that they did not
take it all."
Mr. Hryan declined to discuss tho
probable issues and candidates in tho
next national campaign. Ii.it when
asked to make a general statement as
to the situation, he said:
, "Political suit ess depends upon two
things opportunity and preparation to
take advantage of It. A political party
must have Its principles and It must
advocate those policies it believes best
for the people, and then trust to events
to vindicate the wisdom of Its course.
"I believe that thn Democratic party
has taken the people s side of thp pub
lic questions discussed in is:6 and in
1&00, and if It will maintain its Integ
rity and nllow no doubt to arise a.s to
Its fidelity to the people's cause. It will
be only a question of time, and not a
long time, either, before enough lie.
publicans will be disgusted with th!
tlmo-serving and mammon-worshipping
policy of the Republican party to
again put the IJeni-x ratic party in
power.
'.'Such a victory when won will bring
relief to the people from all the vici
ous policies of tho Republican party.
We cannot win a victory by compro
mise or cowardice, and if we should
win a vh tory by such means It would
be as dls istrlous to the party as Mr.
Cleveland a victory in 1892 proved to
to be.
CLEVELAND OUT OF POLITICS
Former President Says Ht is Out For
Good.
New York, March 10. Former Pres
ident Grover Cleveland denied yester
day that he had come to New York
for any political purpose, as was ru
mored. He said:
"I came solely fnr the purpose of
attending the Ueecher memorial meet
ing Brooklyn. The reports that I had
a political talk with Edward M. Shp
ard. William C. Whitney and others
are untrue. I am not la politics. I
i am out for good. I only saw Mr. Snep
i ard for two minutes, and poliltis did
not figure In our conversation. Poli
tics Is furthest from my thoughts at
present, although I am always ready
to act in an advisory capacity, if so
desired.
"As for taking any active pari In
politics, that Is not to be coosid-red."

Paris, March 9 An old Frenchman

last week on the La Champagne with
15,000. He lost It all in Paris. Dur
ing the voyage he made the acquaint

the name of Johann W'erther. of Chi

said he had inherited a fortune from
his uncle, who entrusted him with
$20,000 to distribute among the poor.
He proposed to give Cbambier $3,000.
The latter accepted the money, which
was placed In a wallet, to which Cham

capsizing Saturday of the ferry boat
