Nazrulla Khan during his visit to Lon
don, is magnificent mansion, probably
the finest private house in the metropO-
lis. Originally built for Mr.. Holford, who
is said to have made his fortune in AUS

the Prince of WaIes's suite.
In order to meet the requirements of
Alohammedan cooking, a. special kitchen
has been reserved for the native cooks,
and one of the stables has been convert
ed into a slaughter house where the ami
mails used for the Afghan's food are
killed.
Large crowds assemble outside Dor
chester house every day, and Nazrulla's
appearance in public attracts much at
tention. The royal family is having a
hard time with the Afghan prince. They
have been vainly trying to impress him,
but he is as stolid as Sitting Bull, giving
himself the greatest airs, and keeps them
all waiting.
What, Another.
incidentally it may be added that while
Oscar Wilde is undergoing sentence of
two years Imprisonment at hard labor
for his conduct, it is common gossip that
this young NazrulIa Khan, to whom Eng
land is paying signal honors and for
whose entertainment $4,000 have been
appropriated, is not above suspicion.
Two American beauties are likely to

ROsebery Changed.
The result of the Derby seemed TO sur
prise Lord Rosebery as much as anyone.
He looked sadly changed since he won
the Derby the year previous with Ladas.
The premier carried white umbrella,
and the effect on him of his recent illness
was quite plain.
The Afghan prince, Nazrulla Khan,
viewed the scene apparently unmoved,
from the royal box. Nothing could per
haps persuade him that it was not all
arranged beforehand for the Prince of
Wales to win the first race. the Cater
ham plate, with his entry. Courtier. and
for the premier to win the Derby.
1t is considered not unlikely that Lord
Rosebery'S second Derby may have po-
litical effect similar to that of 1894. The
nonconformist conscience, as reflected by
the Chronicle, is already up in arms at
the spectacle presented by a racing and
gambling premier" 1t said on the fol
lowing day: Doubtless he may be called
fortunate, but we hope he VIII never as
pire to win another Derby"
On the other hand, the other newspa-
pers heartily congratulate the premier on
his double victory, and it may have
greatly beneficial effect upon his waning
popularity.
''He is a lucky fellow, and L stand by
him" was the remark heard on many
sides at EPSON when the victory Of Sir
Visto became known.
