l late Lord Wilton achieved fame for his remarkable musical talents. Indeed
 Sir Arthur Sullivan, the composer, is never tired of declaring that Lord Will ton was without exception the clever i est amateur violinist in existence Al ] one time he toured through the prov 1 inces with Sir Arthur Sullivan. and several other virtuosi, some profes- sional and some amateur, under the nome of '"The Canterbury Pilgrims
 Let me add that Sir Frederick John stone is popularly regarded as respon- sib.e for the prince of Wales nickname Of Yum Tum," which he applied one evening to the prince at Marlborough house, when he was particularly drunk drunk enough, indeed, to familiarly pat his future king on the stomach with uncomplimentary remarks with regard to it's size
 
 With regard to the engagement of Miss Florence Hazard, daughter of the millionaire wholesale grocer of New York, to Prince Francis Auersberg. who is studying medicine in the Long Island College hospital, after having financially ruined himself in Austria. it should be thoroughly understood by the girls parents that the marriage cannot be anything else but morgan atic union, and that the princes bride will be debarred by Austrian law from sharing his titles or hereditary honors. In fact, she will not be a princess. and any children that may be born of the union will not be in a position to in- herit their fathers name or dignities, or be entitled to any share in the fam fly possessions of the princely and ducal house of Auersberg.
 The latter is one of the mediatfzed, or formerly sovereign houses of Ger many, who figure in Part II of the AL manach de GCtha, and if the prince marries Miss Hazard he will be com pelled either to resign his titles and honors (receiving, perhaps, in return, from the emperor of Austria the rank of baron with another name, in which case his marriage with Miss Hazard will be a perfectly legal one), or else he will be forced to wed her with the left instead of the right hand, and her position in Europe would always be an eQuivocal one, carrying with it no social advantages, but, on the contrary, many very serious drawbacks.
 The prince is terribly in debt in Aus tria. But he deserves a good deal of credit and respect, for when he reached the end of his financial tether, he came over here, and instead of endeavoring to make capital of his titles and rank, dropped both. styled himself MT" Auersberg and set himself to earn an honorable livelihood.
 His case compares advantageously with that of Prince Isenburg Bierstein, who, after meeting with financial re- verses in Europe, came to this country with the object of repairing them by means of a rich marriage He became suitor of Miss Pullman and of sev- eral other neiresses. They one and all, howCve1, refused his attentions when they realized that. owing to his being a member of a mediatized, or formerly reigning house of Germany, the only position that he could offer them was that of morganatic wife.
 Prince Isenburg, by the way, has just lost his father, a pompous and narrow minded old gentleman. But it will not benefit him, as the family es- tates are inherited by his elder broth CT, Prince Leopold. Prince Charles, another brother, is married morgan to Miss Bertha Lewis of New Orleans. Owing to the refusal of any Of the German courts to recognize her as anything but a morganatic wife, she makes her home with her husband it France. He was sued the other day at Berlin by a marriage broker for de- clining to pay the commission to the plaintiff for having brought about his acquaintance with Miss Lewis.-Mar- quise de Fontenoy in Washington Post.
