POOR BRITISH ROYALTIES.
The had Financial Condition Of the
Duke OF TeciS and
His Family.

If the duchess of York looks gloomy
and unhappy DO not put IL down to any
misdoings of her hubby but TO a more
melancholy cause.-the poverty of her
family. For there are degrees of pow
erty. and the TecAs knew a good many
of them in days gone by. Marrying
an only daughter Go the only son of
the prince of Wales should have bright
ened their financial condition, but ii
had only temporary relief, for In
less than three years the good duchess
died, and her annuity Of $4,000 a year
from the crown died with her. An
her belongings had TO be sold TO pay
her debts. Her husband and three
sons became as helpless as blind kite
tens. The eldest son, who is pen-
soner of his father-in-law, the duke
of Westminster, might hand out half
crown occasionally 20 poor papa, and
the future queen of England might pay
for his laundry, but the other boys
couldn't do a thing, for they were even
verse or, having only the interest Of
their debts to live upon.
The old duke of Tecll. who was com
pletely broken down by the loss of his
spouse and his penniless state, has
now become imbecile and requires the
constant attention Of three nurses and
a doctor, all of which costs much
money, as everybody knows. What to
DO with the father of the duchess Of
York is mortifying problem, which
the queen can solve IL she chooses,
but she hasn't chosen TO do so, owing
to one Of the freaks that sometimes

NEW YoRK's DEAD.
u Takes over Seventeen Acres OF

The dead of London require an an

populated graveyard, and IL we ac-
cept the present rate of mortality,

ard, New York. with q population Of
100000. would have TO provide room
for 10000 corpses, and would require
annually 17N acres TO bury them in.
Unless the custom is changed, the
available room in the vicinity Of all
large cities win gradually be alb
sorbed by remains of the dead.
In considering the welfare Of in
dividuals the expenditure of one may
benefit another, but citizens should be
treated on equal terms. With the cx-
ception of Greenwood, almost ah cem-
eterics used in the ncighborhood Of
New York are either poorly managed
by churches or administered for the
benefit of a few fortunate sharehold-
ers. The rural cemetery law as amend
ed in 1870. allows them 10 divide among
themselves the net profits from the
sale Of plots. Realizing about $4,000
for an acre which hardly cost $4,000,
their investments bring large revenues
and are esteemed valuable. BY as
suming the guise Of benevolent So
cieties, owners succeed In evading pay
meut Of taxes which their less for
tunate neighbors are obliged to pay.
The trustees are never called upon to
make reports 20 the state, and they
give but scanty Information TO their
stockholders.

SETTLEMENTS FOR WOMEN.


An important experiment will short
~ be made in England, with the object
of forming settlements of women in
different parts of the country for the
cultivation of the land and thus en-
abing them TO add TO their incomes by
the sale Of fruits, flowers, vegetables,
poultry, eggs, honey, etc. The idea
was started by the countess OF War
wick and an institution viii be opened
in connection with Reading college in
October, where they may be trained
specially for the work. II will be
founded for the definite purpose Of en-
abling women over the age of 16 to OBJ
tain a thorough training Theoretical
and practically in the lighter branches
OF agriculture, viz: Flower aud fruit
growing and packing for market, es-
pecially bush fruit, tomatoes, mush-
rooms, etc, bee and poul;ry keeping
and dairy work. The council of Read
ing college has consented TO provide
the necessary courses of instruction,
and TO recognize the countess Of War
wck's hostel as place Of residence for
women students. The full course of in
struction will extend over two years,
but those who wish TO do so may join
the short courses and special classes.
It is hoped that the inclusive fees for
instruction and board will not exceed
$3.50 a year.

for government, and Is seen at its
worst where he has TO deal with Gree
