Doings OF the Dukes and Dukcsses In tho
Aristocrntio Circles of Great britain.
In reference to some recent remarks
here about the poor matrimonial results
Of the last London season IL Is learned
that matchmaking parents are deriv-
ing much consolation from the almost
phenomena activity of what is known
Us the country house season. The wealth
or has been bad for grouse shooting and
other sport, compelling the young men
to spend more time than usual indoors
in the society Of the ladies. The graft
flying result is said TO be the engagement
Of about 200 fashionable girls to an
equal number of fashionable young mon
since the parliamentary recess COM
menced. The bridegrooms include some
half dozen of the eldest sons Of peers,
among them the Marquis Of Hamilton,
the heir of the Duke of Abercorn, who
will marry the daughter Of the Earl Of
Lucan.
There is also one divorced man, Lord
Connemara, who caused grave scan
dal when governor of Madras He is to
marry widow, Mrs. Coleman, and po-
lite society is asking what priest or par.
son will have tho courage to perform
the ceremony.
When Lord Bruce took over the titles,
ebonors and estates Of the marquisate Of
Ailesbtry ON the death Of his childless
nephew, "tho Coster Marquis" he
found many valuable heirlooms miss
ing. Thereupon he spent money lavish
ly in advertising aud employed several
detectives. The result is now announc-
ed. Most Of the property has been trac-
ed. The Eoirlooms arc in the hands OF
various people, including pawnbrolers,
collectors and disreputable women. The
late marquis, it seems, had treated thom
as available assets and distributed them
freely among his friends and hangers
on, male and female, the majority of
whom pledged or sold them speedily for
cash. Some Of the present possessors
have readily agreed to return the treas
ures ON reasonable terms. Others have
put fancy prices upon them, and few
have refused 20 part with them ON any
consideration. Lawsuits will therefore
be necessary, and the recalcitrant hold.
ers will have TO prove how they obtain.

The Request OF n Young Trooper Whom

On the steamer City of Puebla, which

was a beautiful coal black horse ON its
way to Los Angeles. The horse belong.

toned with his troop Of cavalry at the
Pine Ridge agency. He was popular
young officer and made friends wher-
ever he went.
About five years ago he met a daugh-
ter of General G. o. Howard Of Los An
geles, and before the lieutenant's leave
Of absence had expired the young cou-
pie were engaged TO be married. Short
ly after Lieutenant Casey joined his
troop at Pine Ridge the Indians be-
gan to be troublesome, and finally

down on a number of settlers and MUIR

young officer started off in all haste
with his troop to head of the maraud-
era, but they soon found themselves sur
rounded by the Indians Lieutenant
Casey rode his favorite horse that had
been with him through many cam
paigns, and he was the first to fall with
a mortal wound. AS he fell from the
saddle tho horse stopped and stood
guard over his almost lifeless body.
When friends came to his relief, he
was near his death, and no requested
that his faithful horse be sent to hii

A favorable opportunity was awaited
