His Grace of Beaufort was just then in
volved in slight contention with his family
over the devoutness of his attention t.
a certain fairy of the footlights, who
had achieved her chief distinction by doing
a skipping rope dance in a short Mother
Hubbard and Pinafore, and being painted
hy Mr.. Wits Ter as 1.-THE Gold Girl" His
grace's family, singularlY enough, cherished
the narrow belief that the attention of
soptegenarian peer would be more appro-
prately bestowed on his own wife than or
q buriesque ballet girl, and called a council
OF doctors to decide whether the alteration
aforesaid was not the result of mental aber-
ration. While his grace was arguing the
matter with the experts, Miss Gillnufst wa
shipped off to America, where she spent a
week in fashionable seclusion, after which
she sailed back to the dncal and expectant
arms B.
Her Grace of Beaufort was supervising
the publication of the family silver at Bad
minton not long after when she received a
dispatch from London which seat her into
her own apartments with an emphatic
bang OF the door. Next day His Grace
of Beaufort arrived, in company with
young person who bore far from re-
mote resemblance to Mr.. Whistlerls "GolI
Girl
"Pll not eat with her!" cried her grace.
"Well, will, A." said the duke.

duke calmly, Il shall, and that is all she

And at Badminton the "Gold Girl" re-
manned, to the scandal and condemnation OF
all the country side She presided at the
dukes table when he had a houseful OF
friends from Loadon, and whenever any
chance called him to town he left her in the
care of trusted friend. OF course all the
female part of the peerage was immensely
shocked. The men only shrugged theil
shoulders and said:
Beaufort has always had queer ideas
since he went to America TO kill salmon
with those two actors"

THE THREE GRACES.
Sample Pages from the British
Peerage.


NEW YORK, Dec. ia couple OF years
ago a fine old New York family, the he I'D
OF which was in his time the friend and
adviser of Gov. Tilden and the incumbent
OF many public offices in tho county, in
vited a select portion OF New York society
to attend the wedding Of one Of its daugh-
ters. Society responded with all due grace,
and crowded the old house In Creamery
Park to do the invitation honor. In the
middle OF the festivities a snud1er ia n
through the elegant assemblage, as if n cold
draught had suddenly been let loose on IL.
There was a murmur OF establishment, open
EXPLANATIONS Of surprise, and a genuine
furry of excited gossip. The cause of it all
was a man in tweed suit and wooden shirt,
which, however appropriate they might
have been on the decks OF ii yacht, or in the
smoking room OF a steamship, were Ger
t.inly out Of place at a fashionable we'd
ding, where everyone ele appeared IN full
dress.
"For heavens saker' gasped the Miss
Prims and Miss Prudes. "Wh1 is he!"
And Bullwinkle. who knows everybody,
or thinks no does, replied:
"Why, he's the Duke Of Sutherland"
And SO he was. The duke was over here
on yachting cruise, and being an acquaint
ance Of tho host and hostess, lad bee by
them invited to tho wedding. In ali the
pride Of his superior social state he hal not
deemed it necessary to mako even the com
inonest preparation for the occasion, and So
came slouching into a solemn family core
monial in a fashionable parlor in the rough
and ready rig he made himself comfortable
in over his pipe and grog aboard ship.
Everyone was indignant, Of course. The
story got into the papers and was made .he
text for long sermons on the ill-breeding of
the English aristocracy. The duke wisely
bowed before the tempest he had raised, and
sailed away 20 Florida without giving New
York society O chance to see how he looked
in n dress sdit.
though there was a Duchess of Sutherland
in Burke's peerage, and lady on tho dukes
yacht, the Duchess of Sutherland was not
that lady. In point Of fact, the duchess
was at homo i'll England, and the dukes
fair guest was registered as Mrs. Blair
The duke wove very pretty web OF TO
nance about Mrs. Blair. She was, he said,
the wife Of an cd friend, whom he had
promised her husband on his death bed that
he would care for. His duchess did not III
any way approve of this living legacy, but
he accepted and cherished it, according to
his promise.
"Shockingr' cried Miss Prim.
"Disgustingw cried Miss Prude.
Gay boy, the duke~ said Builwin-
'Ta-tan said the duke from the quar-
terdeck OF his yacht. waving a farewell
to New York with Mrs. Blair's handker-
chief.
The other day the duke with his yacht

and Mrs. Blair arrived in New York on an
other tour of pleasure. The day after they
reached here a cablegram notified his grace
that the duchess, at home in England, was
ill.
"BIess mel" cried his grace, ~ suppose
shall have to take a run over. But shan't
be long about it,"
And he went and engaged a steamship
passage for Liverpool. A few hours later
came another dispatch announcing that the
duchess was dead. His grace breathed
freer.
"My stars!" said he. "What a chance
Now I shall be able to obey the DOCTORS
orders and continue my journey for the sake
CT my health"
And he excused himself to Mrs. Blair and
went off and countermanded his order for a
cabin on the steamer
And yet they complain, IN England, that
the privileges of the British aristooracy are
being curtailed.
A few years ago. happening to call on a
friend in fashionable hotel that fronts the
quietest and most exclusive OF our city
parks, | encountered i'll the corridor an
actress then we'll known in New York rather
for her length of figure and her unconven-
tional method of life than for any special
histrionic merit. She was chatting with a
little blonde girl Of nywhere from 16 to 20,
whose beauty was notable for its frank bold
ness more than for its modesty. The newt
able Bullwinkle was on hand again, with dis
infallible explanation.
"Who is shea" said he. why it's Con-
nien
And who is CONNECT" my questionable
ignorance demanded.

little effort to conceal his disdain. "Why

His Grace Of Marlborough appears to be
in hot water just now aud on his own soil,
too Even the golden spoil of his Ameri-
can marriage can hardly gid the bitter
nils he has had TO swallow since he carried
Louis Hammersley's handsome and jolly
widow back to England as his wife. And
why! Well, for several reasons.
In the first place, His Grace Of Marlbor-
ough had duchess before he came to
America 60 seek one. Ills first duchess had
no special bank account TO place a. his ser
vice, but she had his title by right OF law
Some little domestic difficulties not uncon-
nected with other mems wives led TO a de-
cided breach in the NJ ,rlborough household,
and ended in the useful provision Of di-
vorce The proverb tolls us that when a
man marries his trouble begins. In the
dukes case, his chief trouble seems to have
begun since his divorce.
To begin with, his family gave him the
cold shoulder. Then his creditors began to
harass him. When he visited America
and became the guest Of Mrs. Paran Stew
ems the press Of the plebelap and irrsverent
United States jumped on him with both
feet.

Further Details of the Horrible A flair
 -The Victim Dles.


 The Victim Dies.
 PLAINvILLE, Conn, Aug 13.-Lillie Pot ter. the girl whom George Bradley shot in 8 fit of jealousy Saturday, died at 2:30 Sunday morning. Immediately after the tragedy Bradley's body was removed to Mrs. Demer- ritt's house on Main street, where he was at tended by two men, one nurse and watch man. Bradley was placed under arrest Sun Lillie Potter. He was unconscious until early Sunday, when he seemed rational. He is suffering intense pain from his wound, the bullet being back ot his left eyey having gone obliquely from near his right temple. He is spoken of as a low-minded fellow capable of doing almost any brutal act, while Miss Potter has always borne name far above reproach. One of her sisters, Este1la, teaches in the public schools in Southingtor, and is an ami able young lady who feels the loss keenly. Lillie was the housekeepsr for her father, her mother having died about seven years ago. She cared for the children and was mother of the household.
 Coroner Sperry of Hartford, took the tes- timony of Zulu, who was with her sister the whole afternoon. The coroner has not fin. ished the investigation at present writing. Bradley was seen lurking about the Potter house Saturday morning and fired pistol, the bullet of which barely escaped hitting little girl who was picking berries. The girl rushed home, thinking Bradley intended to shoot her. It is rumored that he told several in town that he was going to have settle nent with Lillie before long.
 The funeral of the murdered girl will be held from the house tomorrow afternoon at g o'clock. The Rev. J. W. Backus will off, oiate. Her remains will be inferred in the family plot in the .Plainville cemetery. She was @ member of the Congregational church and esteemed by large circle of friends who sympathize with the bereaved family
