DUNRAVEN SAILS FOR HOME,

The Earl Makes Rather an Uncermo-
49,. lila r. NOUS Departures: -
NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-Lord Dunraven
and his friend, Arthur Glennie sailed
on board the Umbria for England. In
answer to questions put to him at the
steamers pier, by an Associated Press
reporter. Lord Dunraven said:
II really don't wish so talk"
Mr.. Glennie was little more commu-
NEGATIVE, and when asked what was the
reason of Dunraven's sudden departure,
said om.nously: s.y
''It's avery sad ending"
Mr.. Glennie did not feel inclined to
qualify or define this statement when
urged to do so. He said that there
were only two men left behind to look
after the interests of Lord Dunraven,
namely, Lawyer Askwith and Secretary
Hamilton.
The reporter asked Mr.. Glennie if all
the evidence in the case, as far as the
Dunraven part of it was known, had
been submitted. The reply was:>
-"You can't expect Lord Dunraven to
speak before the committee when he
was on the ocean, and as my testifying,
well, I'll be OH the ocean, too"
What effect Lord Dunraven's SEEM
ingly unceremonious departure would
have in determining the committees
course cannot be fOretold.

Loungers in the Windsor rotunda witnessed
an unusual scene yesterday afternoon It
might be called a mere coincidence, but to
the participants it had deeper meaning

Damon, who now lives at Haywood Mass,
was sitting in the hotel lobby, when a gray
haired veteran approached him.
You are from Massachusetts,, he said
glancing at Mr.. Damons badge. The regi-
ment and company Of each man was ex-
changed in the talk The stranger asked
MT. Damon's address. He was told and then
asked the other. If he had ever been in
Hanover. Il have and my father, John
Damon, lived there before me-"
My God" exclaimed the other "are you
John Damons son? You are my cousin. sir !:
and have not heard word from relative or
friend in the East for ffty-sx years"
Mr.. Whiting came to Minnesota fought in
the war, returned to his home seventy miles
nom St. Paul and has lived there with his
family since. Yesterday he came to the en-
campment. and, strange to say, after half
century had passed, the first man he spoke
