A ROYAL CORRESPONDENT
Has Wales Been Named by
Lady Brooke's Lord2
THERE'S A REPORT TO THAT EFFECT

Secretary staphope Apologies for the
Prince In the House of Commons-No
Action VIII He Taken Against His
Royal Alshne.s.
LONDON, June 16-There is a rumor to-
day, which cannot be confirmed, that
Lord Brooke, son Of the Earl of Warwick,
has filed petition for divorce from his
wife on the ground of adultery, the Prince
Of Wales being charged as correspondent.
It is matter of common knowledge that
heretofore both the prince and Lord and
Lady Brooke have maintained that the in
timacy between the prince and Lady
Brooke was platonic.
Apologixins for the Prince.
The baccarat explanations In parlia-
ment last evening were what was expected
from Stanhope, an aristocrat of the aristo-
Gratis, and all the move intense in his devo-
ton to royalty because, being a younger
son Of the noble house of Stanhope, he has
no prospects except what royal favor
chooses to bestow. There was an ominous
silence In the Liberal and Radical benches
when Stanbope concluded his quasi-apolo-
Ky for the prince with the statement that
the government did not propose to do any
thing about the matter. The squires and
lordlings cheered, but their applause had
a hollow sound in contrast with the evil
dent displeasure Of the representatives Of
the popular party.
Tho Prince Hadnt Seen 1t.
In his explanation OF the Tranby Croft
matter, Secretary Of War Stanhope said
last evening in the house of commons:
"The army regulations in question had
undoubtedly never been specially brought
to the notice Of the Prince of Wales, but
when they had been, and looking back at
all the circumstances of the case, the
Prince of Wales saw his error of Judgment
in not requiring Sir William Gordon Cum
ming to make an immediate report to his
commanding officer. In this view l con-
cur, but should like to express my per-
sonal opinion that, had any one else sud
denly heard that friend who had greatly
himself in the service had
been accused of such an offense, he would
certainly hesitate before at once adopting
a course that would bring an immediate
and irretrievable blight on his whole fu-
turev

Don't Be Gloomy.

Those who are the victims of mer-
curial poisoning, or who are suffering
from mercurial rheumatism, are inclin-
ed to take gloomy view of life when,
as the the poet says. "Winter is fold
ing its white tents and spring getting
its thunderstorms together" Yet these
victims have no reason to despair. S.
S. S. is sure remedy for all forms of
mercurial poisoning. Though it is
purely a vegetable medicine, it is
powerful, indeed, when called on to
chase mercury, and the last lingering
effects of mercury, out of the system.

and dispatch, as thousands Of testi-
monials show.

les Arraiyned,
He Cheats at Baccarat.

LONDON, June 10.-The jury in the bac-
carat trial gave verdict for the defend
ants in the libel suit of Sir William Cor
don Cumming against Wilson and others.
The jury was fifteen minutes in reaching
its conclusion.
On the opening of court General Owen
Williams, one Of the defendants, attempt
ed to protest against Sir Edward Clarke's
attack upon him Monday, but Lord Cole
ridge silenced him.
The lord chief justice then began his
charge, which was favorable to the defend
ants. He said that if the jury found that
the de PENDANTS in what they said about Sir
William Gordon Cumming had spoken the
truth they should render a verdict in the
defendants favor.
II, however, the jury believed the state
ments Of the defendants to have been
broadly untrue, and that the plaintiff did
not commit the acts ascribed to him. the
verdict must be for Sir William.
Sir William Unmoved.
Sir William received the verdict against
him without any show of feeling. He was
cheered as he went away. George Lewis
was accompanying Mrs. Wilson and Mrs
Lycett Green from the court when, on
reaching the center of the lobby Kissing
and booing began and swelled into roar.
General sympathy for Cumming.
In face of the verdict it may seem curl
Gus that general sympathy is expressed
for Sir William Gordon Cumming, yet
such is the fact. He left court in company
with Lord Middleton, his brother-in-law
The effect of the verdict on military
circles is that Sir William Gordon Cum
ming, major and lieutenant colonel of the
Scots Fusilier Guards, will doubtless be
cashiered from the army, and expelled
from the Marlborough club, the Guards

"Can the character be read from
the handwriting ~ Most assuredly it
can. Everyone can remember being
influenced favorably or unfavorably by
the penmanship of some unknown per-
son, and has been astonished to find
how true the conclusions we're; and

Cum ming Married.

LONDON, June 1.-THE marriage of Sir
William Gordon Cumming to Miss Gar
ner, OF New York, created the greatest sem
sation here, and has immensely helped
Cumming in the popular estimation.
Opinion is now much more favorable to
the baronet than after the verdict, and Sir
William and his bride were heartily
cheered as they took the train for Scot
land.
Since the opening Of the baccarat scan
dal case in court Sir Gordon Cumming
has denied that he and Miss Garner
were to wed, and then came the statement
that Friday last Miss Garner had herself
obtained the necessary official authority,
and that the wedding would be solemnized
at once.
The Prince Of Wales Arraigned.
Never in history, at least since the Crom-
we'll period, has the royal house of England
been subjected to such general criticism
and condemnation in the person of the
heir to the throne. The leading news
papers, irrespective Of party, in London
and the provinces are united in arraigning
the Prince of Wales for the low example
he has given the public, and startling sug-
gestions are given currency that the
princes kind of royalty is not suited to the
age and to the people.

1t is quite certain that President Har-
riSon has not all the ambition of the
family to himself.
In time past Mrs. Harrison's 5 ambition
and hopefuiness have given an impulse
to his own.
But with her desire to make the best
of opportunities, and to attain to as
great height as possible, Mrs. Harri-
son has added the power of all exceed
lngly kind and sympathetic nature.
Her face is one of the most pleasant
that has ever been seen at the White
house.
Her particular sphere in relation to
her husbands career has been the carry
Mrs. General Grant.
Perhaps of all the ladies of the White
house Mrs. Grant has been the most
thoroughly a woman of the masses.
No amount of praise or celebrity could
make her anything else than what she
waS-a hearty, sincere woman of the
people.
She was not an aristocrat. and had the
good sense to never assume ariStocratic
manners or ideas.
At the White house she was as honest
and unaffected as she was in her father
country farm house, before she ever
met the young soldier who became aft
erward the hero of the nation and the
recipient of the greatest hOnors.
Gen. Grant found his chief solace-in
her comforting sympathy. She was
such motherly woman, and possessed
! of nature so sweet that he inStinctively
/ turned to her when difficulties and ds-
| cOuragementS pressed upon him.
! With strangers Mrs. Grant was alto
| gether natural and charming. making
| them unconSciOusly her friends. With
| other women she was so wholly woman
| ly, so oamuSingIy and honestly feminine,
| that many recall their acquaintance
with her with smile. She was quite
| as much interested in pretty dresses, the
| children'S health. and the domestic min
ute of the house as if her husband lived
| the quiet life of a private citizen in some
suburban villa. All this was IA consoIa-
ton and 4 relaxation to the president.
and a source of healthy ideas and
strength to him. and he found that he
4! had not altogether relinquished the
| comforts of home life in going to the
| White house.
Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher.
OF Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher's aid to
| her husband in his public career one
need recall but one passage in his life
TO be assured.
During the bitter trial when his enc
mics were assaIling his fair fame with
the most villainOus of accusations. Mrs.
| Beecher stood unfiinchingIy by his side
i = Everyday if that wretched time she
! went nnheSitatingly to the court room
and watched the proceedings with an
! answering front.
Her faith in her husbands integrity
ere long began to breed faith in the
