The Marques of Queensberry's Sister
Marries Baker.

Within the last few DAYS several mys-
FERROUS paragraphs have appeared in
different newspapers stating that the
sister of a well-known Marques had
lately married man not only much
younger than herself, but also greatly
below her in the social scale. The facts
of the case are simply these. Rev. Lord
Archibald Douglas, a brother of the
Marques OF Queensberry and of Lady
Florence Dixie, joined the Church OF
Rome several years ago, and after the
usual course of study and probation was
ordained priest by Cardinal Manning.
Since then he has devoted his life and
money toward the reclamation of bows,
''waifs and strays," from the streets, to
whom he gives home, teaches them
useful trades, and then starts them in
life.
AT the institution which he has founded
and maintains, and where he always re-
sides, situated in Woodtield Terrace,
Harrow road, PaddingtOn, there are sew
enty or eighty of these lads, all of whom
are being trained to be industrious work
ingmen. But the housekeeping, the eat
ing and drinking of so many individuals
is naturally source of anxiety to Lord
Archibald; and. although greatly assisted
by the subscriptions of his co-relgionists
and others, he finds that the good old rule
of "Waste not, want not, - is not observed
by those who have charge of providing
for the wants of so large an establish
ment.
In order to put matters upon a more
satisfactory footing, he invited his sister,
Lady Gertrude Douglas, who is also a
convert to the Roman Catholic Church,
to live with him. and since then some
matters have been on a much more sat
iSfactory footing. About three months
ago Lord Archibald went to Canada.
taking with him forty BOYS of the Home
for the purpose of establishing them as
farmers in the Far West. During his
absence he received a letter from his
sister, stating that she was about to
marry a young man who had been
brought up by her brother, and who was
now acting as head baker of the estab-
lishment.
His lordship was greatly taken ahack
by the news, and telegraphed and wrote
from Canada, urging his sister at any
rate to delay her intended marriage until
his return. But it was of no avail The
couple were married of'hand in the
Roman Catholic Church at Hammer
smith, and have gone to reside in that
neighborhood. Lady Gertrude has some
means of herow Her husband is barely
twenty-one years of age. Manchester

Fences and Country Highways.

Said the United States Consul at Zu-
rich: ''Were the millions and millions
of dollars now wasted in fences in the
United States to be expended in build
ing good roads, not only present profit
would accure to cattle-holders, but
future generations would call us blessed
In the West, it issafe to say, land would
raise in value 100 pei. cent. in Il single
decade
Experience has demonstrated again
and again that building fences to keep
animals out is always expensive, and
usually foolshly eXtravagant; that cattle,
sheep and swine can be more economi-
cally and probably kept under what is
known as the soiling system than by
permitting them to run in pastures
which must be fenced at enormous cost.
American farmers cannot be juStl V
called conservative when compared with
the farmers of other lands; but they
certainly seem to have given little study
to the subject of fences and highways,
or at least to have failed to appreciate
the benefits which would certainly fol-
low the construction of good, hard,
well-drained highways, over which
heavy loads might at any season be
hauled with comparative ease.
Barbed wire fences are declared to be
the cheapest, most effective, and lasting
of fences; but they cost from seventy
five cents to one dollar per rod. At
the latter price the fences on both
sides of the highway would cost $40
per mile-a sum which, supplemented
by the road-taX now assessed each
year, would do much toward making
and keeping in good condition
very fair graveled road. Scarcely a
week would pass at any season of the
wear when farmer would not receive q
direct and most noticeable benefit from
having such a highway connecting his
farm with the markets, and every day
would bring him some good through the
freedon he would have from the many
losses and annOyances which come from
the fence-row.
Vendors of patent fencewire claim
that their fences will last more than
twenty years under ordinary circum-
stances. Freedom from noXious weeds
and from vermin which find congenial
refuge and breeding-ground in fence
rows would last forever if the better
plan was generally followed; and the
graveled road, with proper care, grows
better and more useful year by year,
The value of the lands near such high
way would be greatly enhanced by the
demand which would come for farms
so fortunately situated, until, as Consul
Byers wrote, land would raise a hundred
per cent. in a single decade.-C Chicago
