A scion of the British aristocracy has
come to grief. Before that time he had,
like others of his kind. brought his fam
lily and friends to grief by running up
debts. living extravagantly, and obtain
ing money on more or less false pre-
lenses. Finally he forged a mans name
and his case came promptly up In the
courts. He pleaded guilty TO fraud In the
hope of escaping the penalty for forgery.
A good many titled people came to see
what could be done for him. and 1t was
or other. he would be got out of trouble
and let loose once more on a suffering
world Once out of the danger OF pris-
on. he could. perhaps. be shipped to the
colonies, which are largely peopled with
citizens who are not wanted in the land
Of their birth, or he could have been
sent to America to pick up an heiress. As
the meshes of the law began to tighten
around this titled rascal, the people of
his own class felt apprehensive and sym
pathetic They could not believe that a
man with a title could really be convict
ed like any common thief. But he was.
and he got five years. and also such a
scoring from the remarkably sensible
Judge as possibly no titled Englishman
ever got since there were snakes in Ire
land. And still IL seems impossible for
some varieties of the British mind to un-
derstand why Lord William Neville
should not have been let loose to prey
on society because, according to tradi-
ton. it would hurt his feelings so much
more than it would those of any com
moner to serve a term in prison. In con-
nection with this occurrence. il may be
well to inquire what sort of chance the
son OF wealthy politician or leader of
society would have of being convicted
on a similar charge in an American
court Exactly the same arguments
could be used against his conviction. and
very much the same feeling could be
stirred up. There is certainly a serious
doubt whether he would be allowed to
don the stripes and serve his term. Pos
sibly we may find use for two or three
impartial judges on this side the water.

ARTIST KETTLER SUED.

asked her to become his wife. She says
he assured her that he was a single man
and that his prospects in life were very
bright; that he was 10 receive 5000 for
the drop curtain. and that he would care
for her until they were married, which
would be at an early date. Kitty says
she accepted.
But after a while Mrs. Kettler came
here from New York. charged her hus-
band with unfaithfulness, and hunted
up Kittie.
The police have two different stories
of their meeting. One is that Mrs. Ket-
tier forgave the girl. believing that she
had been done great wrong; the other
is that the encounter was anything but
peaceful.
Kittie went to Kettler and he admit
ted that he was married. also that he
was broken-hearted.
Kittie went to the police station to
have Kettler arrested. but by an officers
advice she decided to seek redress
through the civil courts. She consulted
a lawyer, and papers were promptly serv-
ed upon Kettler.

A. c. Switzer, of Flint, is so lucky that

around Switzer's house carelessly left the
cellar window open and a nocturnal PROV
Ter dropped in to see what he could find.

main part of the house being locked the
would-be burglar was obliged to depart
without securing any plumber. Evidences
of the intruder's visit were found next

dropped in pulling matches from his vest

As far as we can Judge from this morn
fng's reports, the Administration IS on tie
point of allowing Spain to remove any
traces Of her treachery before the Ameri-
can divers can so down and examine the
hull Of the Maine Although Captain
Sigsbee's flag was flying from the mast
head, he and his officers were not allow
ed TO approach the wreck yesterday, and
there was an all-day row with Admiral
Manterola in consequence. Finally Sigs-
bee and Lee induced the authorities TO
promise them the privilege Of examining
their own ship, but a valuable day was
lost. and gained by the Spaniards. II
they can delay inspection by divers for
a few days longer, we may be reasonably
certain that another accident" will hap
pen to the wreck Of the Maine, and that
it will be serious enough to remove all
traces Of the former one. Neither the
government at Madrid nor that at Wash
ington would be sorry if such a thing
should occur. Mr.. Mckinley would be
greatly relieved if all evidence Of this
hideous Spanish crime could be destroy
ed So would his friends. Rothschild,
j. Morgan, Atkins and Olney. But this
can only be done through another eXplo-
sion. and that might prove extremely
dangerous TO the city Of Havana Prob
ably the Spaniards would even risk blow
ing UP the wreck with the certainty OF
exploding the big magazines. rather than
TO be detected in their treachery. That
they are likely 10 be. on examination, is
matter of course. But every hour of
postponement helps the criminals, since
the huge mass is settling deeper and
deeper in the mud. Thereby making it in
creasingly difficult TO inspect the bot
tom from the outside.
