no one. II We are right we want TO win,

but that fact has not yet been establish

said: THE Democratic party may not al

Marquise de Fontenoy In Philadelphia


Lord Bennett, who has Just become en-
gagged TO an American girl. a Miss Leo
nora van Marter. OF Tacoma, Wash, Is
the eldest son and heir of the exceedingly
aged Earl OF Tankerville. who is at the
present moment in such a feeble state of
health that IL is impossible for him to live
much longer. Lord Bennett is a rather
remarkable young man. Formerly an Off
Ger OF the Rife Brigade, and a member
of that gay STAFF which surrounded the
Duke of Marlborough when lord lieuten-
ant Of ireland, he was renowned for the
number of his scrapes. financial and 9TH
erwise, and enjoyed reputation that was
the reverse of enviable. There was not
device which ne had not tried TO raise
financial wind, and he was known as
hard liver and particularly as a hard
drinker. In fact, men used TO fight shy
OF him.
The sudden death of his beautiful sis
ter the Countess or Dalhousie. in a hotel
at Havre within a few hours after land
ing from the steamer that brought her
from New York, seemed 10 have a sober
ing effect upon his character. and couple
OF years ago he became as devout and re-
lgious as he had formerly been the re-
verse. going in for street preaching, re-
vivaiist meetings and becoming a follower
OF Moody and Sankey. his magnificent
voice and knowledge OF music being par
ticularly useful TO him in the new line
that he had adopted.
When his father dies he will succeed 10
estates which are valued at about 5000
a year. the principal country seat being
Chillingham Castle and Park, in North
cumberland. Chillingham Park is cele-
brated above everything else for its herd
OF wild cattle. the sole remnant OF the
magnificent wild cattle which In olden
times used TO roam about the forests OF
Northern England and Southern Scotland.
They are all pure white except on the
muzzle and tip of the horns. which are
coal black
The Prince of Wales almost lost his life
some years ago while shooting some OF
these animals during a visit at Chilling
ham. An Infatuated bull that was charg-
ing upon him was knocked over by
well-directed shot when but few yards
distant from his royal highness. The head
OF the bull. beautifully mounted. hangs
at Sandringham. and the prince often de-
clares that he would infinitely sooner take
his chances with q Bengal man-eating
tiger in the Indian jungle than with enc

and two others started north on March 10
with two ponies and two sledges. The
temperature was sometimes 10 degrees be-
low zero. The ponies proved to be inval-
liable for clambering over fammocks in
the ice. The country generally was at a
height OF 2.5e0 feet, and was covered with
ice sheets, which were interrupted along
the coast by high basaltic cliffs, on which
were found MOSES and Arctic flowers.
The journey revealed many inaccuracies
IN the charts. The land was found on the
Austria sound coast line TO be very diff
ferent from the showing OF the maps OF
the Austrian expedition. Sea islands were
found where the mainland was supposed TO
exist. The furthest point reached was lat
itude 81 degrees - minutes north, where
two boats were left for use later in the
summer. Three derots were also estab-
lshed en- route. Many geological speci-
mems were taken. which show that the
formation Of the land Is mainly basaitic.

intimation that Secretary OIney intends to

most cordial and intimate nature and have
been such since Mr.. Olney assumed the
