 Now, in the emerald palace of heav- en, let the cupbearers and servants of the king remove this course from the banquet and bring on another course of angels food, which is laying out of mighty enterprise. The Bible let's us know positively that the angels have our worlds affairs on their heart. They afford the rapid transit from world to world.

and every one thought it would
be a match. But the banker
failed and Rosebery went straight
home and got into politics. Just
what he did to win the good
will and finally the friendship of the
earl of Beaconsfield cannot be told,
But the cunning political Mephistoph'
eles made Rosebery's fortune.
Hannah, only child of Meyer Ans,
chelm Rothschild, was the greatest
heiress in England, or probably in the
world, then, for that matter. Beacons-
field went to see old Meyer Anschelm
and talked her marriage to Rosebery
over with him. The grim old money
king was then the head of the house
that could put up or tear down any
European throne in quarter of year.
He didn't take to theidea of a marriage
at first. He was a r;gidly orthodox
member of the Jewish faith and Han
nah had better marry among her own
people, he said.
Meantime, Rosebery had been pre-
scented to the heiress by Lady Gold
schmid. He was a handsome young
fellow, with low, soft voice, land a
devil of deluding way with him." as
old Lord Arran said. 1t made a tre-
mendous social sensation when the COM
ing marriage was announced. Though
his countess was not beauty, she had
inherited the shrewd sense of her father.
Besides, as women of her race usually
are, she was domestic and would have
little to do with the social whirl. She
adored her handsome young husband,
who always treated her with the kind
ness and respect that were due her.
The great house with which he was
allied took this earl's fortunes in hand
and has made Rosebery one of the
very richest men in Europe. He has
four children. His two sons were born
in the same year and the prince of
Wales is godfather to the eldest, who
is named Albert Edward, and was
born January s, 1882, while the younger,
James Archibald, was born on the 14th
of November, the same year. Lady
Rosebery died in 1890, and for the last
four years society has been wondering
to whom the young peer would toss his
handkerchief. Only forty-seven, and
looking ten years younger, in perfect
health, with all the money any man
could wish, his is indeed an enviable
lot. He has but one known weakness.
He cordially hates the Rt. Hon. Joseph
Chamberlain.

THE EARL OF ROSEBERY
Although Out of Omco He Is Still
Social Lion.
Lord Beaconsield Aided Him in WooIng
and Winning Baron Rothschild's Rich
Daughter-The WeaIthiest Wild
over IN Europe.

Though he has given up the highest
place in English politics, Archibald
Philip Primrose, Earl Rosebery, is like
ly to be the most talked about man for
the next six months in all England,
says the Washington Post. Lord Rose
berry is essentially ''canny," like all his
Scotch forbears have been, and by rea-
son of this quality the family of Prim-
rose has risen from small and unim-
portant "lairds" to be one % the most
important and by all odds the richest
in Scotland.
In 1874 Rosebery was first heard of in
American society. He was twenty
seven years old when he came to the
great metropolis, avowedly on the look
out for a rich wife. S. L. NJ. Barlow,
the leading lawyer in certain special
ties in New York, took the youthful
British peer in hand. William Henry
Hurlbert was then a social figure and
editor and chief owner of the New York
World. Barlow was one of the Worlds
stockholders, and you could find Rose
berry at any time of the day between
two and five o'clock p. m. either in Bar
lows handsome rooms-the firm of Bar
low, Larocque & Mcfarland had the
most superbly fitted suite of Offices in
Wall street-or else the editorial offices
of the New York World, reading the
English exchanges and occasionally
writing paragraph, full of shrewd wit
and well turned, for the Worlds edi-
torial page. Meanwhile Mrs. Barlow, a
social leader in the best meaning of the
word, was not idle.
She liked Roseberv because he was
always courteous and well-bred and
did not drink so heavily as some of
our best-connected young men do, you
know" she used plaintively to say. All
''the nice, eligible" girls met the young
earl. Miss Astor-late Mrs. Coleman
Drayton-is said to have fatty refused
him. Finally his name was good deal
mentioned in connection with that of a
prominent bankers charming daughter,

NO LONGER IN EXISTENCE.
Dissolution of the Famous Chinese Six
Companies of California.


The latest talk in Chinatown at the
present time is concerning the split in
the powerful six Companies" which
until few days ago had for its mem
bership every Chinaman who thinks
anything of his native country in the
United States. Now four of the COM
panies which were in the organization
have stepped down and out, and here
after there will be two Chinese organi-
cations. Whether the members of the
two organizations will continue on
friendly terms or whether they will
go to numbering one another is now
and may remain for time an I'M
answered question, says the Seattle
Times. Chinatown in this city has been
billed with copies of a proclamation
announcing the secession of four ofthe
companies from the Six Companies.
The proclamation appeals to all ad-
herents of the seceders to stand to-
gether and boycott the other com
panies. The local Cinnamon are said
to be divided. Some will stand by the
old organization and others will unite
with the new.

WHAT JAPAN IS SURE OF.
Has Learned Bitter Lesson from Rus
sia's Intervention.

blh
Japan has learned bitter lesson from
the Intervention of Russia, SAYS the
London Spectator. She realizes as she
never realized before that Russia is her
real enemy, or, at any rate, that he
who would China win must with Russia
first begin. She knows now that if she
is to carry out her dream of supremacy
in the far east she must first settle ac-
counts with Russia Look forward a
year or two and see what is likely to
be the course of events. Japan will,
during the next three or four years, be
busy creating great fleet. Her army
is sufficiently satisfactory weapon al
ready and need give her little or no
trouble. When she has feet of first
rate ironclads she will no doubt open
the ball by virtually annexing Corea
or else by making some new demand
on China.
The prompt payment of the unpaid
installments of the war indemnity will
always give her an excuse for quarrel
ing, for 1t is certain that China will
make very slow progress in meeting
fully her financial engagements under
the treaty of Simonoseli. Russia will
then have to do one of two things
either to stand by and let China be de-
spoiled or else to intervene once again
to protect her. But the task will then
be far harder one than it was last
spring. Japan, If our argument is cor.
rect, will be in a position to fight and
to dispute with Russia the command OF
the sea in the far east. Russia in three
or four years time will then have to
meet the $4,000, 900 she has provided
turned into ironclads and torpedo
boats

HIS ESCORT MAY BE SMALL.
But One Military Company VIII Accom-
lpsny Cleveland at Atlanta.


lpany Cleveland at Atlanta.
Il. The announcement has been made
by Col. John S. Gambler, the senior
colonel of the Georgia volunteers, that
no company of the regular national
guard will consent to parade on presi-
dent day at the Atlanta exposition,
October 90.
The reason for this is that the expo
sltion directors have placed the parade
in charge of Capt. j. f. Burke, of the
Gate City guards, an organization
which is not enlisted in the state serv-
ice, does not wear the regulation state
uniform and is not under officers COM
missioned by the state authority.
The judge advocate general of the
state more than year ago decided that
the state militia could not legally par
ade with the guard. On this account
that company was not invited to par
ticipate in the parades on the opening
day of the exposition and on Liberty
Bell day, but through the action of the
exposition committee they have been
placed in charge of the procession to
escort President Cleveland to the
ground on the occasion of his visit
here.
Col. Gambler is one of the most prom
inent Cleveland democrats in Georgia,
but it is understood that this will not
prevent his insisting on strict observ-
ance of the military law of the state.
The regular militia are with Col. Cand-
Ter, and the indications are that the
presidents escort will be confined to a

TRIED 1T ON THE DOG FIRST
How the King OF Italy Played a Joke on
Queen Marguerite.

An amusing story comes from the
court of Italy. For some time past
Queen Marguerite has been very much
concerned at the extraordinary rapid
ity with which the hair of King Hum
bert has been whitening. What could
she do? Woman like, she saw only one
remedy.-hair dye-and she suggested
the idea to the king. But his majesty
objected to being rejuvenated by any
such process. One of her relatives, a
young prince, suggested strategy. He
knew, he said, of splendid colorless
dye which she could place on the dress
ing table Of the king and he would use
it without thinking as ordinary hair
wash. But his majesty got wind of the
affair and laid a counterpart. The
queen had little white dog with long
hair. He inveigled it into his dressing
room, applied the famous hair dye and
turned the dog into her majesty's apart
ments in coat of splendid Jet black.

Hung in Florida.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Sept. "a
special to the Times-Union from Jas
per, Fla, says: Jos. B. Norton, white,
was hanged here today for the murder
of James Denmark, also white, on the
might of January T. 1t was intended
that the execution should be private
and high fence had been erected
around the gallows, but the crowd
tore this down and: three thousand
persons saw the hanging. Norton as
cended the ga1lows at 1:15, stepping
as firmly as if he were walking to his
dinner instead of to his death. He said
in his statement that he did not kill
Denmark, but that his life had been
sworn away by perjured witnesses.
He. pointed out Messrs:- Miles and Nc
Alpin rs two of the men who had
sworn falsely against him This al
most caused a riot. Young McAlpin,
who is a son Of Representative Meal
pin, made desperate effort to get at
Norton, evidently intending to assault
him. Sheriff Pollard called on the
crowd to assist him and McAlpin was
finally arrested and order restored.
Norton concluded by calling on God
to witness that Judson Taylor killed
Denmark. The trap was then sprung,
and Norton's death followed instantly
his neck being broken. A novel feat
ure of the execution was that at Nor
tons request white gauze veil was
pulled over his face, instead of the
traditional black cap. On the night OF
January Norton and his bride of a
few. weeks attended a ball given in
their honor. During the ball young
Denmark gave Norton a pistol to keep
for him, and then began dancing with
Mrs. Norton. While Denmark was
dancingwith the young wife he did
something to her that enraged Nor
ton. The husband jerked Denmark
from Mrs. Norton's arms and struck
him to the floor. Then, as Denmark
tried to rise, he was shot dead with
the pistol he had given Norton to
keep. Today Norton said that he drop
ped the pistol and that Judson Taylor
picked it up and shot Denmark. Nor
ton always claimed that Denmark had
grossly insulted Mrs. Norton. Norton
was magnificent specimen of man
hood, being fully seven feet tall, and
weighing 250 pounds, without an
ounce of surplus flesh. He was 80
years Of age and was born in Viii
