PRINCESS cOLONNA.

Mrs. Mackay's daughter has furnished
another illustration of why American heir
esses should not marry European princes.
Bal timore Herald.
The prince sold title. which Miss Mack
ay bought with her millions. 1t isn't a
new story, and the moral is not a novelty.
American girls will keep on jumping at
titles, hit or miss.-kansas City Star.
The divorce suit of the Princess Colonna,
stepdaughter of Millionaire Mackay, will
call attention to the probability that Bron-
son Howard drew the principal characters
in "Aristocracy" from real life.-Evening
Wisconsin.
The divorce proceedings instituted by the
Princess Colouua, the daughter of Mrs.
John W. Mackay, is a repetition of the old
story. The American girl who marries a
title usually catches a Tartar. Memphis
Acknowledgment.
That Prince Colonna, who married Mrs.
Mackay's daughter, has done great deal
to discourage rich American girls from
marrying titled blackguards. but 1t is to be
feared that the lesson will be wholly vast
ed.-New York World.
Millionaire Mackay's sou-in-law. Prince
Colonna, did not turn out to be much of a
bonanza after all. The old gentleman
should bring the prince over to this conn
try and reform him by turning him loose
among the cowboys.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
Count Colonna was q thirsty cuss, = per-
sistent hut mighty poor gambler, for he al
ways lost, ran through his wifeis money,
staid out late of nights and generally acted
Ike q titled rufiian. A plain, everyday
American king Is the chap to tie to.-Terre
Haute Gazette,
Perhaps IL the ambitious Mrs Mackay
had been willing to permit her dsoghter to
marry a sensible Young American instead OF
yoking her to the worthless Prince Colonna
both the daughter and her mother might
be happier than they are now.-Boetou
Herald.
1t Is a sad case. but it will strike the i'm
partial ohseryer that the American girl de-
serves very little pity 1t was undoubtedly
her vanity that prompted the marriage
the silly yearning of our snobbish rich for
foreign rank ard titles. Mrs Colonna Is
reaping the legitimate fruit Of vain 30
cial speculation Paul News
The Princess Colonna. nee Miss Mackay,
adopted daughter Of John W. Mackay. the
American millionaire, has left her husband,
the prince, leaving him with nothing but
his title to solace him. But under the
French law the impecunious prince can
share mis- wife's estate. and the bonanza
king will have the honor OF supporting
prince for the remainder Of his days Mont
