AT THE HOTELS.

Sir Walter Scott and Bobby Burns
have made Scotland to glow so with
romance and poetry that we are wont
to look upon those fresh from the land
Of cliffs. castles. doons and heather
clad hills and vaIes as guests from
fairy world. 1t is hard to realize that
5Qneen Esther, the last of the Gypsy
iqueens, died at Yetholm ten years ago,
since which time Scotland has ceased
to be the realm of the Gypsies, and the
strange bands of wanderers have made
way to the ARRANGEMENTS of the Anglo
Saxon. Even many of the old castles
shave fallen before the practical spirit of
the times. Yesterday D. F. Wishart
4 Jr.. who was born and raised in Edin-
burgh. and whose ancestors fought with
Wallace and Bruce to defend Scotland,
was at the Ryan. His father and self are
heavy iron merchants of the great edu-
fcati0nal center of Scotland, and he has
come all the way over here to secure
bride from the Bad Lands of North Da-
kota. The Scotch lassie whom he mar
ried few days ago was the sweetheart
OF his boyhOod, and came with her
parents to the Bad Lands ten years ago,
where her father has large and sue
cessfui horse ranch. The ranch is about
forty miles from Medora, the whilom
beet dressing home of the Marquis de
Mores. Mr.. Wishart arrived in the city
yesterday morning with his bride, and
will leave for the worlds fair TODAY.
After week or two at Jackson park the
two will go to their home in Scott and.
They are an unassuming, but educated
and accomplished pair. "You know"
said MIR. Wishart when approached,
THAT we Scotch people dislike to make
display OF ourselves in print. I can
think of very little OF interest to say.
Perhaps it would be in place-to say that
the depression in America is quite
keenly felt in Scotland, in fact in all of
Great Britain. and we greatly hope that
you may have better times soon.
The Scotland of today is not the
Scotland of Walter SCOTS time; vet
there many of the old landmarks, which
he surrounded with so much romance,
still standing. Edinburgh has now
population OF 25o,000, aud Leith, on the
Firth OF Forth, which is practically a
part of Edinburgh, has $4,000 people.
Glasgow has something over 500. coo peo-

Britain. 1t is great manufacturing
city, and many of its rich manufactur-
erS retire and come to Edinburgh to
live; for this is the city of homes, and
very dear city it is &c all born and
bred Scotchmen. / would not leave it
for all the world. The memory of Scott
is preserved i'll beautiful monument
standing upon one of the squares. L
cannot pretend to describe Edinburgh;
it must be seen to be appreciated. l
have enjoyed very much my stay of
four weeks i'll America, and shall go
home with many pleasant reeollections.
1t is wonderful country, everybody
who sees 1t must admit"
