burned about twelve years ago on the
cider bank at that place, since when it
has caused him much tTouble-so much
so that he has accustomed himself, late
", TO large doses of opium TO alleviate
his sutferings. But the increasing use
lessless of his leg necessitated amputa-
ton. This operation was performed
last Wednesday, at PaIryville, by DIR.
w. l.. Kutz assisted by Drs. Zern and
Reber. The limb was removed about
fifteen inches below the knee. The
patient recovered from the operation

Gus to gain his own livelihood, which his
crippled condition prevented him from
doing, but by the use of an artificial
limb he will soon be alright.

THE CANARD EXPLODED.
Why the American Beauty, Miss Cham
berlain, Cannot Marry Prince
Albert Victor of Wales

Albert Victor, of Wales.
The Fort Worth Gazette and other
Texas papers are giving currency to a
rumor which originated in a northern
paper, that Prince Albert Victor, of
Wales. eldest son of the heir apparent to
the throne of England, is engaged to an
American lady, and that the lady In
question is none other than the Ameri-
can beauty Miss Jennie Chamberlain, OF
Cleveland, Ohio. Whilst it can be
proudly said that American women are
the peer of any in virtue, beauty and in
telligenCe, and that such an alliance
would be advantageous for the young
prince, the rumOr may be safely set
down as a canard, which has emanated
from the brain of some imaginative
newspaper iellah" who fancies that he
can impose upon American Credulity.
In the first place, If the royal family de-
cded to make a change from the usual
inter-royal marriage system, there are
so many noble bellies who would seek,
nay more, demand the honor in such
fOrcible terms as would compel consid-
GRAFTON, and in the second place, the
prince cannot contract a legal marriage
without the consent If the queen and
parliament. As the aristOcratic element
controls parliamentary influence, it Is
scarcely likely that they would assent
to measure in which their class was
so openly and effectively snubbed.
Then again the queen is not likely to
concur in such q marriage If the Prince
desired ii. Since the passing of the
Royal Marriage Act" the only scion
of royalty who has married outside the
pale of royalty was the Princess Louise.
She married an old playmate, the Mar
quis of LOrne. son of the Duke OF Argyll.
That nObleman is rich and powerful,
a premier pier, claiming descent from
the Scottish kings, yet the marriage is
not regarded as a happy one, neither do
the people generally consider that it was
wise one; moreover, it caused COnsid-
cradle jealousy in other aristOcrat c
families. This experience has strength
ened the queens opinion that inter
royal marriages are the best and there
are certainly many political reasons for
them
