THE Duke of Argyll began life as

The Duke Of Argyll began life as a
very poor duke, but will probably end
as a. very rich one. His uncle had left
the estate terribly "dipped," and then
there were jointures still further to de-
plete it. In fact, at one time he con-
templated selling Roseheath, his beauti-
full historic seat in charlottesville, but
his slender means led to saving habits,
which grew steadily upon him, and he
has all his life lived SO quietly and un-
ostentatiously that he has gradually
cleared away debts and now enjoys a
splendid income, large proportion OF
which he saves. His eldest sons wife
has 10000 q year from parliament, be-
sides a marriage portion in cash Of
$4,000, and they have no children.
The next son is partner in Coutts
banking house. The third married a
Manchester lady of fortune, and is in a
stockbroking house which does a great
deal of business for the Rothschilds
Another, now his fathers secretary, is
in parliament, and very likely will
eventually be in office, and the last is in
the navy. One daughter is married tc

seat in the lords, there is no saying how
long he r,ight not have held the posi-
ton so far as his health was concerned,

now be able to do so. About seventeen

The Jewelry RObbery-Arrest of Parties Supposed to be Implicated.
 CHICAGO, Dec 1-Much excitement was caused tonight about police headquarters by the arrest of Walter McDonald, city sealer, and Charles H. Aldrich, late city detective but now private detective for the Union National bank, on charge of being accesso- " after the fact to the robbery of John H. Morrow, the Philadelphia agent, of jewelry valued at 1000 few nights since at the Clifton House. It appears that Aldrich and Mcdonald went to Morrow at his room in the Clifton House and told him they had a clue or 'tpointer'' by which they thought they could recover the stolen goods if a sufficient reward were given. Morrow referred them to Pinkerton's agency in whose hands he had placed the entire matter. Pinkerton's men negotiated with Aldrich and MeDonald to pay $700 for the return of the iewelry, the money being furnished by the Philadelphia firms who were the losers. The money was placed in the hands of Mir. Cannes, vice president of the Union Nation al bank. This evening being the appointed time for the return of the jewelry, AL drich and Mcdonald marched into Morrow's room with grip sacks and boxes containing as they claimed the entire amount of stolen jewelry Officers were present and at once arrested them. They were taken to the Central station and at late hour were still in custody, but will probably be admitted to bail They claim that they know nothing of the robbe1s and simply obtained the jewelry where it had been left at Isaacs' pawn shop, and that they are entitled to the reward. The officers have obtained clues and now know that four professional thieves were en- gagged in the robbery and believe they will soon capture them

Suicide in sprtnEhe1d-A Woman Driven
 to SeIf-EIurder.
 SPRINGFIELD, Dec. 1.-Anne, wife of Hen ry Pearson, cigar maker of 165 Hancock street, killed herself yesterday by taking Paris green. Her husband had deserted her several days before, and despair and mental distress had made her nearly insane Mon day night, when the neighbors say she began wandering in the streets, but was taken home. Yesterday morning at about 10 o'clock she rushed into neighbours and said she had taken Paris green to kill herself. Officer Goodwin, whose beat is in that ward, was called, and brought in a physician, who gave an antidote. Poormaster Burt was then summoned, and had the patient removed to the city hospital. Neither of the visiting physicians of the hospital could be found, and though active treatment according to the prescription already given was kept up, the woman died at 2:3O p. m. It is thought that she may have taken other poisons with the Paris green. She was about 35 years old. Her four children will be cared for by neighbor until Agent Burt can catch their father, whose address in New York is un- known

Brockvvay's Surrender of VaIuablePlates.
 NEW YORK, Dec. Ion Thanksgiving day several officers of the secret service depart ment drove out to Jamaica in company with Brockway the forger, who had promised to point out the places where his notes and plates were buried. They struck into the woods at point near Richmond Hill and went long back into the woods, when Brock way pointed out a stump around which they dug and unearthed the bond plates. The lat ter were done up in asphalt in a sealed pack age. They next went down the railroad track for about mile, and re-entering the woods they again proceeded to dig under direc- tion of Brockway. There they found S45,7OO in counterfeit notes. The bogus money was done up in glass jars. At another point they dug up $4 ,Oo0 in lead pipe, and at another spot the other place the fve-twenty coupon plates were found together with the original dies and the counter of the $100 notes. The fibre paper was also found on that expedi- ton. District Attorney Penney said Brock way had been allowed to make these surrenders on condition that he should plead guilty to two indictments against him and refrain from ever again counterfeiting. By taking this course the government has come into posses sion of information of the greatest value, the precise nature of which, however, he could not at present impart.

 NEWARK, Dec. 1.-The police are investi- gating the story of an alleged attempted ab- duction of the nine -year-old son of John Poiner, wealthy lumber dealer of 71S High street, this city. Little John says that on his way home from school this afternoon about 4 o'clock he was overtaken by man driving horse and covered wagon on Clin- ton avenue. The man lifted him into the ve- hicle and drove off rapidly. There were two other little boys tied and gagged in the wagon. Approaching Milford avenue Johnny saw a policeman and began to cry aloud.
