GEORGE AND MAY QUARREL.
Succession to the British Crown
Still in Doubt.

Succession to the British Crown
Still in Doubt.
LONDON, April 23.-Princess May Is
out of mourning. and very charming she
looks in the modified costume in which
she is to be seen about. Her highness
is frankly pleased that at last the papers
have, for the time at least, ceased to
drag i'll her name at every turn in con-
nection with George, who, it appears, is
the only obstacle in the way of COM
plete happiness at Marlborough house
and the White lodge.
The fact is the Duke of York is by no
means in such hurry to get married as
the world seems to imagine, and he pos
sesSes an ample supply of that native
firmness-to term it by no other less
f1attering phrase, which he inherits from
not few of his ancestors.
There is absolutely no truth in the
statement that has found its way into
the papers on your side, that the
projected marriage between the young
couple had been officially announced,
The British court is still sphinx-like on
the subject. and neither the Tecks nor
Albert Edwards entourage have ut
tered a word which would lead one to
believe that such an alliance was con-
templated.
1t is, however. whispered in society
circles that screw is loose some
where. George and his May have had
tiff. f.one of those lovers quarrels which
cause so much anguish while they last
and which are amply recOmpensed in
the sweet making up thereof. Every
thing points in this direction, for
George is at the present moment
cruising about the Grecian isles
with his mother. while poor, penSive
May IS wandering around the silent
glades of Richmond park seeking COM
fort and solace from her good-natured
mother, the fat and happy Mary Ade-
laide. Had everything been couleur de
rose May would have been of the yacht
ing party, or at least the Tecks would
have found some excuse for spring
trip to Italy, so as TO have been within
reasonable distance of dear George.
As it is the British public has to watch
and wait, if not watch and pray, that
all this hOkus pokus may soon end, and
that the succession to the crown, in
which they may be said to be somewhat
interested, may be shortly settled one
way or the other.

DEVONSHIRE SEVERE.
He DenOunces What He Calls
Gladstone's Perfidy.

LONDON, April %. - The Duke Of
Devonshire presided at dinner of 200
Ulster loyallsts at st. James hall this
evening. In his speech against the
home rule bill he said that the Union
lists ought not to despair: he himself did
not believe that home rule was any
nearer realization because the bill
had passed its second reading. The
apparent approach of the day of Separa-
tiOn might cause much excitement and
violent agitation among loyal 1rishmen,
but both should be repreSSed. Mr..
Gladstone had not attempted in the
debate on the second reading to contro-
vert the arguments of the opposition,
nor had he referred to the appeal of
Ulster men against home rule. The
Unionists of England and Ireland re-
sent the prime minister's betrayal Of
his country, his perfidy and his coward
ice in wishing to surrender the liberties
of Ulstermen to their avowed enemies.
When the English electors realized how
contemplate and disloyal was such
action, they would refuse to sanction
the insidiOuS and deadly blows aimed
by the present ministry at the efficiency
of parliamentary government.

CHIHUAHUA, Mex, April %. The
drouth which has prevailed throughout

WHERE ARE WE AT p

Are we in it or are we not is a
question we are confronted with by
a correspondent. He says: "If Mis-
sissippi Sound is legally part Of the
Gulf OF Mexico, and if our Code legal
ly describ S Jackson county, and if
westerly means west as Our courts
have decided, then Scranton, Pascal
gOula and all our islands are outside
Of Jackson county"
The Code says Jackson county is
bounded by beginning at the NV cor
ncr OF Sec. j, T. ,, south of r.. 8, west !;
thence east on the line between town
shiys | and 2, south, to the State
boundary between Alabama and Mis-
sissippi; thence southerly on said
boundary to the Gulf of Mexico ;
thence westerly with said boundary
to the center Of range 8, west /; thence
north with the section lines to the
beginning" The question is, that if
at the southwest corner, which is per-
haps the most inland point, the word
WESTERLY" is literally regarded to
mean an air line west, then the points
in question would come on the out
side: but the Code says WESTERLY
with said boundary"-tllat is, mean
dering in a westerly direction with the
line formed by the Gulf of Mexico,
which puts us 'in it," If at the said
southwest corner the law meant that
the southern line should run weStcr-
ly at right-anslcs with the eastern
line, it no doubt would have said SO.
II WESTERLY" in this instance, means
due west, then in the cast boundary
"~southerly" means due s%outh-an air
line-and as this line runs to the east,
more of the county would thus be cut
off. However, it is safe to conclude
that we are strictly in it, and form a
large and mighty important part of
old Jackson county, and could not be
dispensed with.
