tine Purpose of Testifying In an Import
ant Suit Involving the Validity of an
American Marriage, q Fortune and an
Earldom.
NEW YORK, May Ex-senator Ed
munds was sitting In Mr.. Clarence A..
Stewards office yesterday whena reporter
introduced himself.
~ am too busy to give you much in
formation" said the Senator. 81 am on
my way to England to lay before the
Committee on Privileges Of the House of
Lords certain points Of Americ can law"
"May ask what points you are to
elucidate2"
my testimony is needed in civil suit
affecting the title OF one of the Oldest
peerages In England, the income of which
Is $50, 900 year. 1t Is the title of the
Earl of Lauderdale. The history OF the
contest was published In the newspapers
some time ago. The suit is to be tried
In the House OF Lords In June, and will
be argued before the Committee on Priv
ileges by the Attorney-General on one
side and the Solicitor-General on the
other, and great array of legal talent"
1t Is said the case in which Senator
Edmunds is engaged turns on the validity
OF the marriage of Sir Richard Maitland
with Mary McAdam, which was cele-
brated by Dr. Ogilvic, of Trinity Church,
In l772, In this city. The estate is claimed
by two Maitlands, one Major Frederick
Henry Maitland, Of the Bengal Cavalry,
and political agent for Central India. He
Is the direct descendant OF Sir Richard
Maitland, who was Adjutant-Gene o
the North American Colony from 1855 to
l772, and the fourth son of the sixth Earl
OF Lauderdale. The other claimant Is
Sir James Ramsay Maitland, who is de.
scendant of the fifth son of the sixth
Earl II the House of Lords comes to
the conclusion that Mary MacAdam was
lawfully married to Sir Richard Maitland,
and that her children were born in lawful
wedlock, then Sir Frederick will become
the next Earl of Lauderdae. II the de-
cision is against the validity of the mar
rlage, then Sir James will succeed. II Is
in regard to that marriage and to the |
laws and customs in force in the colonies |
at that time that Senator Edmunds has |
been summoned TO give testimony before |
the law Lords.

Only Too True.

No blushing daughter Of the morn
Can vie with her OF woman born;
No face at windows Of the spring
Is like virgin blossoming.
Betwixt the blue lids OF the sky
No orb there mates a maiden's eye;
Not mighty Mars unfailing lance
Can match the mischief OF its glance.
Nature, how weak art thou to harm
AS does a dear unsleeved arm!
Thy rocks would trickle into sand
With tingles from dimpled hand.
What swaying shapes OF sun or shade
Approach the motions Of a maid?
What snowy curve by winter traced
Can take the taper OF her waist?
And that soft darkness of her hair,
Thy twilight shades-ah. their despair!
Not all the striving stars beguile
AS may one memory of her smile.
That foolish lips should speak SO wise,
Makes merriment from earth 10 skies;
Nay, Nature, drop dewy tear
For solemn knowledge bought so dear.
