Sir William Wilde, NJ. D., of Dublin. He
has known Mrs. Leslie for some years.
Mr.. Wilde arrived from London on tie

since been stopping at the Hotel Bruins
wick. He is well known to literature,
having published book of poems and
complished other literary work. In 1915
he was made member of the Irish ba

him in $50 to go to London, where he Le-
came editor of Vanity Fair.
Friend of Edwin Arnold
He was also a contributor 10 London

Came Over to Marry and Write a Book
Mr.. Wilde has written history OF the
Parnell commission which attracted
widespread attention. Il have he said.

to America. One was to write a book on
America, and the other was to marry my
wife. i am married, but the book is 10.

lea and will take charge of Mrs. Leslie's
business as editor and general manager of
her publications.
Her Affair with the Marquis.
Mrs. Leslie has had many suitors since
her widowhood, but the nearest she came
to marrying any one was the Marquis de
Leuville. On July 10, 1889, while in Lon
don, she and the marquis called at the
registry Office and obtained license. The
wedding did not come off, however. for
some unexplained reason. Later at the
vestry in Mount street, Grosvenor square,
Aug. 10, 1885, Mrs Leslie, widow, IS years,
and William Rene Oliver de Court, Mar
quis de Leuville, had declared their
intention to marry, and on Aug
10, 1890, they had again declared their
intention of marrying. Mrs. Leslie had
grown one year older during the year, but
de Leuville had got year younger. The
marquis admitted all this to be true, but
Mrs. Leslie on July "a, stoutly denied it.
whereupon the marquis said CALAMITY
that he could not contradict lady. After
this Mrs Leslie and the marquis ceased to
be mentioned rs prospective husband and

CHICAGO, Oct 5.-The base ball season,
so far as the League is concerned, came to
an end Saturday. 1t did not go out in a
blaze of glory exactly-not for the Colts,
for after seeing the pennant almost flying
from the pole in the west side grounds,
that much-desired rag got wiggle on it
somehow and wiggled out of Anson's
GRASP to fiutter over the stamping ground
OF accompany of experts which halls from
Boston. Not for the: Beaneaters either,
for, however conservative a man nay be
as to crediting the cry of fraud in sport

look of skullduggery about those five

tied the hash of the great and only Arson.
