Lady Dudley.

Lady Dudley, whose husband lisa re
ceivcd one Of the minor parliamentary
Offices in connection with the new Sails
bury administration, is probable the
only peerless Of the realm who has risen
from the rank Of bona fide shopgrl to
her present social emiDence. True, she
bore prior to her marriage the name of
Quincy, one of the most uncient in
Norfolk, one of her ancestors having
been that Thomas do Courtney who
murdered King Edward III in such an
appalling manner with hot iron bars.
The young countess father, however,
met with business reverses and was
compelled to resign his partnership il
the Quincy bank, as well rs to surrender
all his possessions for the benefit of his
creditors.
Mrs. Quincy thereupon opened mil.
liner shop in London, but met with
soant SUCCESS, her two daughters, who
had acted as assistants, ultimately be-
coming saleswomen in the Regent street
store of the modiste, Mime. Elise. H..
About a year previous to Lord Dud-
ley's marriage the now widowed Ouch
ess OF Bedford and her sister, Lady
Henry Somerset, interested themselves
in behalf of the two young girls and
removed them to more cougenial sur
roundings Rachel, the eldest, became
member of the household of the Ouch
ess, while the younger, now Lady Trow-
bridge, was adopted by Lady Henry
Somerset. 1t was as tho adopted daush-
ter Of the Duke and Duchess Of Bedford
that Rachel Quincy married young
Lord Dudley.

A circumstance i, just reported
which calls to the public mind
once more that thrilling event in
English history the mutiny of
the Bounty. When tue mutineers
cast their captain and others OF
his crew adrift in an open boat,
and themselves sailed off with the
Bounty, they landed at Pitcairn
Island. AS years went by and
they increased in number, they
were removed to Norfolk Isl
and, under the New South Wales
Government. 1t is at Norfolk
Island where they are now locat-
ed, and the administration OF the
place has been left in their hands.
Reports OF unsatisfactory adj
ministration of justice reached
New South Wales, and an inquiry
was made. Considering that the
reports were too well founded, the
New South Wales authorities de
cided to change the system of
government, and the last Australi.
an mail brought particulars OF the
proceedings. Lord Hampton, the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of New South
Wales, in FL NJ S Katoomba,
visited Norfolk Island, taking
with him Colonel Spalding, Q NJ
G., who was installed chief magis-
trate. 1t was generally thought
that some show of hostility to the
new regime would be made, but
nothing of the kind occurred.
The leading man of the place was
Mr. + M hobbs, and it transpired
that the families of this man num-
bered over three hundred. The
whole population of the island is
not much over 600, so that the
hobbs family or families com
prise half of the population.
Strangers are practically excluded
from the island, or, at any rate,
not encouraged, and this, together
with the great preponderance of
the Nobbs, shows that there has
been an inter marrying of a very
undesirable nature. His Excel
lency Lord Hampden called a
public meeting, and read the pro-
clamation altering the constitution
under which Norfolk Island was
governed. This was received
graciously by the islanders, and
in their address they stated that
the inhabitants of the Norfolk
Island yielded to none in their
devotion and love to Queen Vic.
toria. Colonel Spalding was
formally installed as chief magis-
trate, and the Katoomba left. The
effective force to assist the new
commissioner to compel obedience
to the law consists of one police
man. Colonel Spalding was get.
ting a committee of elders elected
to assist him in governing the
island. - Liverpool Journal of

How to Tell n Horses Age.

1.-THE popular idea that the age of a
horse can always be told by looking at
his teeth, ;" said veterinary surgeon,
lis not entirely correct. After the
eighth year the horse has no more new
teeth, 80 that the tooth method il use
less for telling the age of horse which
is more than years old. AS soon as
the set Of teeth is complete. however, a
wrinkle begins to appear on the upper
edge of the lower eyelid, and new
wrinkle is added each year. so that to
get at the age Of horse more than s
years old you must figure the teeth plus
the wrinkles.
