A ROMANCE OF WALES.
The Two Ladies of Llangollen Who
Lived a Strange Life Together.


Helen Marshall North contributes to
the January Century an account Of
Lady Eleanor Charlotte Butler and
the Hon. Sara Ponsonby, who. more
than a century ago. ran away from
their homes and settled in the
picturesque little town of Liangollen-
They dressed in a strange costume
that was partly made up of masculine
garments. They were visited by many
distinguished people, and correspondent
with most of the nOtableS of their
times. The writer says:
Among their visitors the ladies' also
counted a certain Sir Alured, a. hand
some and interesting, but venerable
man at this period. Here is a romance
within a romance; for of this gallant
gentleman il is said that one of the
princesses fell desperately in love with
him, and her father. Door old George
III, sent the 100 fascinating young
man away to India, where there was
war at the time, and whence, there
fore. there was some likelihood that he
would not return. But at so he came
back, still handsome and fascinating,
and was received with distinguished
favor by the new king, who made him
a field-marshal. OF the princess and
her affection nothing more is learned.
Sir Alured had long known Lady
Eleanor, indeed. for aught / know to
the contrary, he may have been one Of
the five despairing SWANS mentioned in
that lady's Obituary-and once a year,
usually in October, he came down to
LlangOllen to pay his respects to the
two ladies, to whom the visit was al
ways an occasion of consequence.
The death OF Lady Eleanor was~a
grievOus blow TO the old man. He
came the year following. however, but
was less gay than usual; and it is even
said that he neglected to bestow the
usual parting kiss on his fair enter
tainer. The Hon. Sara promptly re-
minded him of the oversight. for which
he at once made atOnement-
Mary Carryl. the faithful servant,
had died in 1909, making the first
change that had occurred in the in
mates of the household.
Each of the friends wished a picture
of the other. but neither was willing
TO sit for her portrait. By some strata
gem of a friend pictures of the two
together was secured when the ladies
were unaware.
In June, 1929 at he age of co. Lady
Eleanor passed away; and although
her friends surrounded Miss Ponsonby
with every possible kindness, she re-

THAT HOUSEKEEPING.
Editor Shaffer Not So Much t
Blame

Evanston, Jan. 1.-The Tribune Of
Wednesday contained a highly colored
article from its Evanston cOrrespOn-
dent. about a horsewhipping affair that
showed a disposition on the part of
the writer to reflect unjustly severe
upon our tOWnSmdn Mr.. William 7.
Shaffer, editor of the Uinta Herald.
The writer Of that telegram. in his
anxiety to furnish a sensational re-
port, drew largely upon his magma
ton for the Write-up. He made a
mountain out of a mole Hill. His YER
sion of the affair was calculated to
leave an unWarranted bad impression
regarding MIR. Shaffer among people
who do not know him personally.
True he vas assaulted by the person
named. The crowd Of people" who
Witnessed the assault was just two
people. namely: Mr. Burdett, in whose
store it occurred, and Miss RebeCca
Ever. a companion of Miss Stewart s,
who came with her for the occasion.
No other people were present.
The physical punishment inflicted
amounted to nothing. The greatest
punishment M. Shaffer has received
is the disagreeable nOtoriety which has
been given him through the Tribune.
Mr. Shaffer was led into the diff
Guilty. by repeating, in one instance
only the statement made to him by
a man who. as he has since learned,
is somewhat OF a rOmanceeT, and whose
statements are not always to be de-
pended upon in an emergency. In
giving credence to this idle rumOr. and
repeating it. Mr. Shaffer was TO blame.
This much he freely admits.
Regs riding suits for criminal libel.
and using the mails for the transmits
sion of libelous matter, no such suits
have been instituted, and are not likely
to be.
MIR. Shaffer has done nothing crimi-
nal or immoral in this connection, and
still enjoys the respect and confidence
of a host Of friends in this commUn-
ity.
The young woman has been heard 10
remar!. that there We're yet other men
in the town thar she intended to settle
with So they had better take warning.
No one can blame her for defending
her character. Every lady is justified
and should preserve her good name.
But there are many ways of doing so
effectively. without the unenviable no
toriety which Inevitably follows such
heroic display of q hOrsewhip.
Mr.. Shaffer has held nigh and hon
ora BILE positions IN the county of Uinta,
such as receiver Of the United States
land office, county treasurer. etc, ana
his name today stands without a blem-
ish in the mind of all good people in
this state.

Insurance Suits.

F. j. Kiesel & Co. have commenced
suit against the various insurance
companies to recover insurance alleged
to be due on their warehouse and goods
which burned September is.
The Union and Hartford companies
had insurance on the building; while
six companies had insurance written
on the stock.
The suit involves So 400. and grew
out of the fire caused by the terrific
wind storm of October Is and 10.
The first reports were necessarily
meager and not wholly correct. At
first the building was supposed to have
collapsed and then caught fire and
Press reports at first so stated. The
firemen assert, however. that ii was
after the building caught fire that it
collapsed. The companies will try to
prove that the collapse occurred before
the fire and that hence they are not
liable.
The amounts sued for are as follows:

New York, Sept. 2G.-A disappointing
rye crop IL indicated by final returns to
the American Agriculturalist.
Instead Of 2S.00O.000 bushels expected
from earlier Indications. the crop of the
United States now figures out about 25.-
100000 bushels, !. 100000 bushels more
than last year, and 2,000,00O bushels less
than in 1895 and 1894. The increase IL
mainly in Pennsylvania the western crop
being quite disappointing.
Latest European crop advlccs are con-
firmatory of serious shortages in rye. es-
pecially In Russia. Germuny's rye crop
seems to be somewhat larger than earlier
reports indicated. but reduced estimates
for France and other countries partly off
set this. Stocks of old rye Mt home and
abroad are lower than for years, and cx-
port demand for American rye continues
very active. Except. during the fall OF
1919 and 1896 rye has not been so low
as at present since before 1890.

dition of soil and fertility Of land to be
taken into consideration by the alloting
agriculturists. All claims against the

PROOF OF CANNIBALISM.
Evidences OF 1t Were Found al
Lieut.. GreeIey's Camp.

Boston, Sept. 2S.-In an interview with
n Post representative today A. s. Knight
of Lieut.. Peary's ship stated that positive
proofs Of cannbalism were found at
Lieut.. Greely's camp at Sabine by land
ing party. Mr.. Knight says that when
Cape Sabine was reached only the scient-
lists of the party and one or two attendants
to do the work were landed. Before go
ing ashore each of the party was told to
expect to find some disagreeable things,
but to be prepared to keep silent forever if
necessary as to what was found. All
agreeing, the party was landed and the
search begun. When the expedition re-
turned aboard it bore lot of cast-off
clothing, empty provision cans and surgi-
cal instruments. The most important
find, however, was not brought on board.
but was buried. 1t was the remains of
a human right thigh that was found in
the snow outside the camp proper, near
the place used as burial ground by the
Greedy party. This part of a limb was
taken from the body at the hip joint, the
separation having evidently been made by
the use of the knife alone at the hip and
knee. For about foot from the hip
down the bone was bare the flesh having
apparently been cut away as butcher
cuts leg of beef
