THE IDOLOF FORTUNE
Mrs. Langtry Has Another
Stroke Of Good Luck.
her HUSBANDS OPPORTUNE DEATH.
Now Every Obstacle Is Removed to Her
Marriage with Prince Esterhazy,
MIR. Langtry Having just
Died In nIadhouse.

LONDON. oct. 1S,-Edward Langtry
died in the Chester lunatic asylum
while Mrs. Langtry was entertaining
a select party of sporting friends at
dinner at the Savoy hotel. They were
celebrating her winning $3.50, 900 We'd
nesday in bets on her horse Norman,
which won the Cesarewitch stakes.
After her husband had been taken to
the asylum the officials there had no
communication OF any sort from Mrs.
Langtry. Were 1t not that he had
small income he would have been treat
ed as pauper inmate.
By the irony of fate this income now
passes, under the marriage settlement,
TO swell the hoard accumulated by the
famous Jersey Lily.
Edward Langtry was not OF a type
20 be emulated, He left HIS young and
beautiful wife to her own devices when
they had been married only two years.
While she was whirling in the vortex
OF London society he was contentedly
yachting and drinking around the
coast. He was as Indifferent to her as
she was to him.
For some years back Edward Lang
try had displayed unmistakable signs
of the life Of dissipation he had led.
Originally he was good looking and
gentlemanly, but when seen a few
months ago at Southampton he was
bloated almost beyond recognition. and
the bridge of his nose had been broken
by falling when under the influence of
liquor.
He spoke with amazing freedom
about his wife, but without a trace Of
feeling. He was thoroughly demoral-
ized by the shiftless life he had led and
had lost even the manners Of a gentle
man by mixing so long with tipplers
and outcasts.
/ The asylum authorities have decided
to hold an inquest, as 1t is believed that
The immediate cause of his brain attack
was an injury of some kind to his head.
The death of Mrs Langtrys husband
Is the elimination Of an extraordinary
series of events which cannot be re-
Sarded as anything but the most re-
markable good luck Of the Jersey Lily
The sad end of Edward Langtry s
life is heightened by the element of tri-
umph it brings to the woman who for
years had been trying to shake him Off

A play that is fraught with dramatic
Incident, cleverly constructed, powerful
in it's climaxes and, above all, the power
of love and honest purpose are doml-
nant, will find a place in the estimation
of theatre patrons. 1t is just such a

and it is entitled "The Royal Secret. "
Mr.. Lackaye and his excellent company
will be seen in-this romantic comedy
at the Grand Opera House on next Sat-
urday evening for the first time in this
city. Mr.. Lackaye is an actor who pos
sesses the rare gift OF versatility. In
personal appearance he is well suited
to romantic roles. His voice has all
the mellowness, combined with robust
ness. that contributes so much to the
success of an actor in like characters.
This actor has not overlooked the beau
ties of handsome and appropriate cos
tunes. and he has provided his play
with a scenic investiture that Is pic
