books of travel, showing close obser-
walton of the manners and customs of
the countries which he has visited and
of which he has written. Among the
books are Russia in Central ASIA"
persia" and Problems of the Far
East"
Mr.. Curzon's books have attracted
considerable attention in this country,
and by them he is known among the
literary people of New York and New
England quite as well as if he had lived
there all his life. He has visited Amer
lea and is not stranger in Washing
ton.
The groom attended All Souls, of
Oxford, of which he is an M. A. and a
fellow. He was born on January IL,
1859, and is some eight years the senior
of his bride. Mr.. Curzon is one of a
family of eleven children, all of whom
are living but one. His brother, next
in age, is captain of the Third Battery
of Sherwood Foresters, Derbyshire
regiment and is connected by marriage
with the old family of Rokeby, whose
names are only found now in the list OF
extinct peerages He has another
brother who has taken his B. A. at
Oxford. Of his sisters, Sophia is the
wife of Rev. Charles MacMichael, vical
of Stanton-in-Peak, Derby. Upon the
death of the present Baron Scarsdale
the plain George N. Curzon will sue
coed to the title of the house, and Miss
Letter will be her ladyship, with al
the honors that that title implies among
the oldest families in England.

KING OF THE HELLENES.
He Has Shown Great Tact In
Maintaining Himself


! Modern Greece and it's reiQning
house is the subject OF an entertaining
paper in the Review of Reviews. The
little midshipman of Denmark who
was in London assisting at his sisters
wedding to the prince of Wales
thirty-two years ago, and who
was chosen to be the ruler of
Greece, is to-day in the full vigor
of his prime, and can see In sturdy
sons and grandsons the promise that
his kingdom is not to perish with him.
No royal house in Europe can more
safely challenge the fierce light that
beats upon the throne,r for more ex-
emplary household than that of King
George it would be hard to find. There
is an open-air wholesomeness about
them all that goes with pure blood and
domestic virtJe. King George is in
deed the first gentleman of Greece, but
he does not hedge himself about with
state. He is more likely 10 be met on
a swinging walk than in a carriage;
and when he catches brute beating a
child in the slums of his capital he is
not above stopping to do little cudgel-
ing on his own account.
OF the queen, not even malice could
lisp a syllable in dispraise. She is
beautiful woman, of commanding pres
ence, every inch queen, and allies
the royal family of Greece to that of
Russia.
In 1889, when Crown Prince Constan-
tine was married to Prince Sophia of
Prussia, there was in Athens one of the
most unique gatherings of royalty ever
known. In the homely Byzantine
during the long wedding GER
which took two hours, were So
phia's mother, the dowager empress of
Germany, and her brother, Emperor
William, and his wife; the present car
of Russia, the cousin of Queen Olga of
Greece, and the nephew of King
George; King Georges sister, the
princess of Wales and her husband, and
King Georges mother and father, the
king and queen of Denmark. So one

Proposed Tax on TITLES.

In France they propose to tax titles
thus: Prince, 1000 francs; duke, 800
francs; marquis, 700 francs; count, 500
francs; viscount, 500 frances baron, 400
francs; double prefix, 200 francs; single
prefix, 100 francs. The rates appear to
be reasonable enough, but why should
government that processes to be a re-
public recognize titles of nobility in
this way? 1t would be better to abol-
ish them altogether. They are not rec
ognizable under republic.

RIDES A BICYCLE.
DIR. A. Conan Doyle, Physician, Author
and Wheel Crank.

When the spirits are low, when the
day appears dark, when work becomes
monotonous, when hopes seem hardly
worth having, just mount bicycle,
writes the author of sherlock Holmes,
in Demorest's Magazine, and go for a
good spin down the road, without
thought of anything but the ride you
are taking.
l have, myself, ridden the bicycle
most during my practice as physician
and during my work in letters. In the

after work, as the mood o'ertakes me, l
mount the wheel and am off for spin
of few miles up or down the road

SOMETHING OF INTEREST TO HO-
TEL MEN.
A very important decision was rem
dered in New York q few days ago by
Judges Geigrich and Bisch0f. Ill the
general term OF court, which viii be read
with interest by The local hotel keepers.
In most all hotels it IS the custom OF the
management to disclaim responsibility
for the loss of valuables kept in the
rooms of guests. The facts OF the case
upon which the decision was rendered
are as follows: Last winter Joseph Mi
roy, a drummer for an English firm in
the neighbOrhOod of London, came to
New York with his samples TO the valud
of 500 He took his samples to his
room. where ne became acquainted with
a man named Roberts who occupied an
adjoining room During his stay they
become very intimate, Roberts often
times freQueuting the room Of Miroy.
After several weeks Roberts suddenly
disappeared, leaving a large board bill
and taking the samples of mis- friend
with him. Miroy at once entered suit
for damage against the hotel, but was
unsuccessful i'm the lower courts. He
appealed to the general term Of court
where he was awarded damages for the
entire amount, the court holding that
the management Of the hotel is response
.ble for every cents worth Of property Of
their guests contained in their rooms.

III Tie celebration The parade in the
morning while probably not as large
as in some former years, was very
creditable demonstration, and an impos-

labor i'm Wheeling and nearby towns.
The outing at Mozart Park attracted
an immense crowd to that popular re-
sort. and all enjoyed themselves in the
excellent programme OF omusements
provided by the committee in charge.
The celebration, on the whole, reflects
credit Oh The Assembly and the unions
which participated, especially In view
OF the fact that it took place under cir
cumstances which were rather discOur-
aging. The weather was threatening
at several times, and this fact prevent

DOOM OF THE TELEGRAPH EDITOR
Associated Press Report Transmitted hi.
rectly to the Typesetter

Louisville, May 26.-An interesting
and successful experiment was made
here this morning, when the Associated
Press report was taken direct from the
wire by a typesetting operator. The
introduction of the typewriter into the
telegraph business has been the means
of greatly facilitating the transmission
of the press service of the Associated
Press, and several newspaper men of
this city connected with the Evening
Post press have been experimenting of
late with view to doing away with
the typewriter and substituting there
for linotype machine, thus setting
news for the paper directly from the
wire.
This morning a loop from the Asso-
ciated Press wires was run into the
Evening Post composing room and b.
G. Boile, managing editor of the Post,
and Richard Gogan, chief operator of
the Associated Press, who are both tel
egraph and linotype writers. succeeded
in receiving the dispatches of the Asso-
ciated Press and putting them in type
directly from the wire.
The experiment proved that the tele-
graph can be worked successfully with
the typesetting machines and a maxi
mum rate of SO words a minute be reach
ed. In an hours work this morning an
average speed of 80 words per minute
was maintained.

Chicago, May 26.-The most vigorous
summer campaign ever planned by the

Brigadier General Fielding of the army.
A private council of officers has con-
vened and will be followed by similar
meetings tomorrow, and Thursday there
will be a grand field day, to be inaug-
urated by a holiness convention at

The characteristic feature of the sum-
mer's work will consist in three tent
brigades which will start out upon pill
grimages of the country districts at the
close of the present festivities. One
brigade is composed of well trained

Another Is composed of 20 young wo-
men with string band. The third is
the mems singing brigade, which also
includes brass and string hand. Each
brigade will have tent seating from
1000 to 1900 people
They will remain in one location from
one to two weeks. 1t is sought by these
means to strengthen the organizat ton
in the country districts, the army hav-
ing hitherto devoted its energies chiefly
to the slums of great cities depending
also upon the urban population for
financial support.

unsavory reputation who assaulted Miss
Laura Bennett and Miss Lillian Draper,
were hanged to Gilbert street bridge at
S'So this morning by a mob of 1000 men.
On the way TO the bridge from the Jail
a procession was formed, taking the
boys through the main street Halls

with the ropes around their necks
Royce wanted to see his father, and a
delay Followed. His father did not
come. Halls said he was not ashamed
OF what he had done. They would not

grim stand of the little band of defend

Thompson. A telegraph pole was used
as battering ram.
AT O'Clock Sheriff Thompson sent for
Judge Bookwalter of the circuit court.

corridors. He counseled peace and or

needed. Then another desperate at
tempt was made to reach the cells where
the two men Were secreted.
Finally Royce was located, crouching

hands dragged him out. and he was
hustled into the dining room and seated
on lhe table. A rope was placed over
his head, and while a part of the mob
kept close guard over him others con-
tinued the search for Halls until he was
discovered in another and more remote
portion of the Jail.
Perhaps the most sensational Incl
dent of the lynching occurred during
Judge Bookwalter's address to the mob.
At first his words produced a telling
effect, but the leaders, some of the most
prominent men in the county. replied:
Yes, we know the jury will convict
them and give them severe sentence.
