1.-The British barmaid is much lnisunder-

warlx of the British throne that are equally

presumably is based on what ne has seen

VANDERBILT AS A DOCTOR.
Cornelius, Jr., Studying with n View
to Practicing Medicine.

The reported intention of Cornelius VAN
derbilt jr., to take postgraduate college
course is causing much gossip. Not that
there is anything out of the way in the son
of multi-millionaire, who is also the som
in-law of another very rich man, devoting
himself to study; far from it. But the peo-
pie seem TO fail utterly TO fathom the
young mans motive. For it is truly an un-
usual thing for so ''well-flxed" young man
to study any more than he has to, and it is
likewise uncommon in this country for a
man TO return to college after he has mar
ried.
But with all their gossiping over the mat
ter few New Workers seem to have dis
covered young Mr.. Vanderbilt's real reason
for going back to his books. and when the
facts are known there will probably be more
gossiping than ever.
The fact is, according to gentleman who
ought TO be well posted, that the scion of
mined to show his father and the world at
large that he has a good deal more In him
than has hitherto been suspected. He pro-
