the oldest and finest families in Scotland;
was brronet, with $780, 600 year income;
Lieutenant-Colonel in the famous Scots
Guards; an officer repeatedly decorated for
bravery on the battlefield, and one of the
most intimate friends Of the Prince Of
Wales. Aftea next week he will be ex-

Personal honor is far more important
quantity in English society than it is in
American. This is not due.to any higher
moral standard Or superiority in virtue,
because of the two American society is
really on the higher moral plane. Itarises
from the fact that the whole English gam

The trial was 4 fashionable novelty and
luxury. Lady Coleridgc, the young and
bewitching wife of the venerable old Chief
Justice, made the most of her opportunity,
and, seated beside her potent, grave and
reverend lord, was one Of the most promi-
nent figures in the court. She took notes,
borrowed his pencils and paper, whispered
opinions to him, nudgcd him with herfan,
and committed MS many other prtty abb

Evton ofliciated. The marriage was prac-

present at the ceremonies. The bride
looked charmingly happy and Sir " lllIam
proud looking, cool and entirely seli-pos-
sessed. There was no trace in Els per-
sonal appearance of depression or emo
ton resulting from yesterdays verdict III
the court of the Queens Bench.
Echoes of the baccarat scandal SUIT
still fill the air. Solicitor General Sir
Edward Clarke, who so ably argued the
case, is i'll and thoroughly exhausted to-
day. He has entirely lost the use of his
voice and is obliged to retire from an i'm
portant case in which he was retained Tor
to-day. Denunciation of Prince OF Wales
by newspaper press, especially by the
Tory press, has caused tremendous scnsa-
ton throughout Great Britain and IT is
freely asserted that revelations made dur
ing the trial Of the baccarat scandal suit
in the court are Judged to have done more
to impcril monarchy than any event which
has taken place for many years past in
England. The fat assertion is made by
the Daily Chronicle that until the Prince
of Wales OIL oath, swears as his confeder-
ates did, that he, the Prince, did not VIC
late the solemn pledge he gave to Sir
Vim. Gordon Cumming, he, the heir np-
parent, rests under an imputation OF his
honor quite as shameful as that which the
jury put upon Sir William Gordon Cum
ming and reflects the general feeling on
the subject.

newcomers left the city, the majority of them

from European ports recently received at the

grave indiscretion. Tile pity Of it all is
not there but in the presence of the heir
to the throne at the head of baccarat
table. The Prince is bound to a pure,
simple and cleanly life as an example OF
his future subjects. Woe to the monarchy
when IL can no longer perform what may
fairly be called its last surviving use. 1t
is grotesque to have the Prince carrying
about baccarat counters wherever he goes

Prince Of Wales against everything but IN

From a military point of view it says the

obvious leniency and Kindness of heart
that his generous and true hearted coun,
trymen will speedily forgive and forget:
The Chronicle has y scathing article

Colridge particularly 1t says evidence

thesis that Cumming merely played the
well-known coup de trois. 1t says: The
verdict means according to the jury that
Cumming deliberately cheated an Mus

The whole philosophy of spending is

The art of making little money go

is not at all an abstruse one. Hoard
money only to the point of reasonable
prudence; beyond this is bad religion,
bad policy and bad sociology. 1t is a
practice which ruins character and
commands the undiSguised contempt of
noble souls. Find what gives you the
most satisfaction and spend freely for
that end, if it is not too frivolous and
unworthy. Do not let narrow-minded
people persuade you that it is a waste
of money to buy bunch of roses
or thoroughbred dog or to entertain
your friends freely. People always con-
denim as eXtravagant the things they
don't want themselves. Learn that the

Special Letter to the Globe.
NEW York, June 3.-Those of US who
read the newspapers and reflect upon
the happenings of the world would

represented as living in abject terror of
murderous designs against her hus-
band and sons, as the empress of Russia
is said to do, would be absolutely indif-
ferent to her personal appear
ance, except for such observances
as would be absolutely necessary.
But even under the depression of grief,
misfortune or illness the empress shows
a laudable desire to be an ornament to
the stern MuscOYite court. Besides, if
nOblesse oblige, surely royalty is under
still greater obligations, and though the
heart be heavy as lead, the kingly pomp
and parade must be kept up, and it is
part Of the cZarina's duty to set the
fashions to her court and the
nobility. SO every season the
head of the house of Redfern
is sent for, and (packing his carpet bag,
and donning Dew paper collar) starts
off at a champion Sprinter's speed to
st. Petersburg, where his royal patron
awaits to view bis his choicest patterns
and designs. He has just returned from
Dne of these trips, and forwards to his
New York branch sketches of the gowns
selected by the empress, and which
