He was for many years treasurer of Allie

Maryland candidate for controller, and
afterwards was appointed subtreasurer at
Baltimore by President Harrison. In 1892
he was a candidate fo- Congress, but was
defeated. In 1884, however, he was elected
to the House by over 5000 plurality. Mr..
Wellington was a main factor in the nomi
nation of Mr.. Lowndes for governor of
Maryland, and as chairman of the state
committee 1t was to a very large extent
his management and skill that secured re-
publican success for the state ticket. The
present Maryland legislature elects a sue

by her New York friends, although
these little tokens of friendship Will
hardly reach her before the wedding
day. No little gossip was created
apropos of this engagement, and the
fact that but $4,000 a year had been
settled by the duchess upon Lord Beres-
ford
When she was plain Mrs. Hamersley,
of New York, with an income of $24O,-
COO year, and the Duke of Marlbor-
ough courted her, it was said that she
agreed to allow the duke the handling
of nearly all of her great income, an
office which he was abundantly able
to fill This arrangement got the poor
duchess into so much litigation that
it has evidently had it's effect, and now
she will do the managing of her own
money.
Another charming widow who, ii
is whispered, will soon be the recipient
of numerous engagement gifts, is Mrs.
Sam Colgate, who came into ten mill
ions about two years ago, when Mr..
Colgate died. Mrs. Colgate was a
Southern girl, and as Miss Cora Smith,
of New Orleans, was famed far and
wide as beauty.
1t is said that Count Sierstorp, who
has been paying her marked attention,
has been successful in his suit, and that
the lady will soon go abroad to pur-
chase her trouSSeau.
AN EMBARRASSING FEATURE.
There is one feature of the engage
ment gift fad which may lead to I'M
pleasant results. 1t is not unusual for
fashionable people to become engaged.
make preparations for the wedding
and then at the last moment break
off the engagement. OF course the
young lady will not care to have as
constant reminders of such an I'M
fortunate affair numerous little love
tokens from her friends. Nries
Gould was engaged twice before she be-
came engaged to and married Count
de Castellane, and If she had been
burdened at the final engagement with
two sets of reminders of her former
love affairs, it would have been I'M
pleasant to say the least. Miss An
gellca Gerry was also engaged to J.
Wadsworth Ritchie, and only short
time before the date set for the we'd
ding the engagement was broken off
These merely Snow that the 49,. -
has its disadvantages.
Mrs. Eugene Kelly Jr.. has made a
reputation for prodigality in the mat
ter of engagement gifts. She was one
OF the first of the wealthy New York
women TO make up the fashion and
make it popular. Her gifts are usually
OF gold, and frequently the precious
