Some weeks ago the New York Sun
published advertisements from the London
newspapers whereby John W. MackRy
offered a reward for information concsring
the identity of certain persons ia London
who had circulated unpleasant rumors con-
corning Mrs. Mackay's early career. The
expiaaation of this Circumstance furnishes
n rather amusing illustration OF the facility
with which rumor augmentS itself under
favorable conditions. 1t seems that lady
of high position near the court, Mrs. Chain,
some years ago was annoyed by the
capade Of n favorite maid, a very pretty
girl, who ran away from her employer and
her home, and went to New York with a
wealthy Australian not unknown TO the

fate, heard that she had eventually gone to

of asllionable society by giving a splendid
entertainment, which the Prince OF Wales
left a large party at Holderness house to
attend some tAoughtlesS or ill-natured per
son in Mrs. Chains circle of friends threw
out query as TO whether the Mr.. Mackay,
whose name was then in all peoples mouths
as the Silver King in America, could posi-
bly, be the person who was reported Co have
married Mrs. Chains maid. There does
not seem TO have been the slight

for this query except the idle and
frivolous disposition Of the person who
made il. Whe this person is do not un-

two not very prominent men, more or less
addicted Co fashionable gossip; but, as in
uhe case OF the three black crows, the query,
once started. went from mouth to mouth
until il grew into an assertion, and it was
knowledge of Mrs. Mackay as proceeding
from well-known American lady, now a
resident in London.
Then Mr. Mackay, thinking tho time had
come for taking decisive measures, issued
the advertisement referred TO and called in
the services of George Lewis, who has
been effectually setting the matter right
with explanations and apologies from all
concerned.

nothing of his Affairs, and is apt to be up
