George Curzon would be a great man. To
be sure he would succeed to the title of
Lord Scars1ale some day. IL he lived. but
he was not content with that. The young
man preferred to carve his own name.
His is one of the great historical fami-
lies in England. The original Curzon
smote the blond-haired Britons with a
double-edged battleax at the side of Will
lam the ConQueror, and he was made
Lord of the Manor of Lockinge. Berks.
and Fishead Oxon. Giraline De Curzon
was a nobleman In Normandie.
Mrs. Curzon has been fairly overwhelm-
ed by the congratulations that have pour
ed in upon her. The excitement that has
attended the conceited wish Of all Lon
don to shower attention upon Mary Lei
ter. that was. has fairly overtaxed her
strength, and the future vicereine of
India left her residence at No. 4 Carlton
Gardens on Thursday for few days rest
in the Curzon country home.
Meanwhile, with honors crowding thick
upon him, Mr.. Curzon is himself Ill. and
has been confined to his bed at the Carl
ton Gardens House.
While Mr. Curzon, being the eldest
son. would succeed in the natural course
of events to his fathers title. the new
viceroy Of India will probably be ere

pointment.
The governor general Of India, the IT,
tie yiceroy being commonly but not Off

the neighborhood of sl5o0Oo per year.
but not a very large sum when the enter
tanning that must be done is considered.
The term of office is four years-the
same as that Of the Presidency Of the
United States-but 1t Is sometimes ex-
tended.

AS a result of the Bottomly bolt down

Mr. Bottomly the independent repub-

In the 9th Worcester district, after

riman of Whitinsville, a democrat, hut
fine fellow, is elected over the reg
ular republican candidate Francis Il.

year, as 10 years ago, is complimentary
to DR.. Hartman, not only in his own
town, but in the entire district, where
he is very popular. Ten years ago DIT.

Philadelphia. Nov. S.-Because of the
large ticket and the extensive cutting
by independent voters, returns from
Philadelphia and Pennsylvania are
slower than usual Enough is known,
however, to indicate that William A.
Stone, republican, is elected governor
by large majority. The vote of DR..
Swallow in the state will probably be
under that of last year, when he re-
ceived 1899 for state treasurer. Phila-
delphia is the Swallow stronghold,
however, and large vote here may in
crease his total beyond last years fig
ures. The vote on legislature ticket in
the counties where the opponents of
Senator Quay have fused with Che
democrats is very close.
Pennsylvania returns are slow and in
some instances unsatisfactory. At mid
