LpiIuOA, July L-NoopS SHtCO, 1919, w
the Associated Press)-The paramount
thought among the crowds which
thronged the enclosure at the review of
troops at Aldershot Monday, judging
from the frequent references to the sub
ject, was one of admiration for the Won
derful overs of endurance displayed by
Queen Victoria, enabling her to bear the
fatigue of such an occasion inflicting
on anybody of such an advanced age
The heat was intense, the glare of the
sun was binding. the dust was thick,
and the troops occupied two hours in
passing the saluting point. Yet, in spite
of the fact that her majesty had Travelled
by train from Windsor castle and had
been driven from Marlborough to LAT
fans plain, she appeared to enjoy the
scene from first to last. though many
OUNCE and stronger persons left the
ground quite exhausted.
While the Prince of Wales and the mas
cullne members of society have been en-
joying the racing at Newmarket. the
Princess of Wales and the ladies gener-
ally had their sporting tastes grat.fied
by the magnificent dog show of the
Ladies Kennel association at the BOtln-
mic gardens, at which about 1000 dogs
were on view-a truly remarkable record
when it is realized that the entries were
confined to CANNES owned by the ladies.
The Princess of Wales was a big prize
winner with BorZOls, Coils and Bassets.
V~iscountess Deerhurst formerly Miss
Virginia BOnynge) was also a prize WIN
ner. Some historic dogs We're on view,
including Furtherest North, the sole sur
vivor of Lieutenant Peary's pack in his
Greenland expedition.
The Duke and Duchess of Connaught
are to arrive in Dublin Sunday. They
will be the guests of Lord and Lady Rob-
erts of Kandahar. at kilmanham. Their
visit is in the nature of a prospecting
tour, as now that the duke has definitely
renowned his claims to the Gotha duchy
he is expected to succeed Lord Roberts
as commander of the forces in Ireland
unless unexpected state difficulties super
vene. The appointment would be most
popular.
The Prince of Wales has decided to
stead of going to Holnburg, unless the
presence of the Duke of Orleans at
Marienbad determines a change of plans.
Both Queen Victoria and the Prince of
Wales dislike the Duke of Orleans, and
the latter is much annoyed and mortified
at being utterly ignored at court. The
Duke and Duchess of Orleans nave gone
to Austria. They had desired to stay at
Brussels and Turin previously, but re-
ceived strong hints from King Leopold
and King Humbert that their presence
was not desirable. The fact is that the
absurd and elaborate fuss a handfu of
the dukes followers persist in making
when he is in Brussels or III Turin has
caused a great deal of trouble to the re-
spectiVe governments.
Extraordinary interest was taken in the
sale of the Marlborough gems at Chris
ties on Thursday. as oabled to the AS
ISOLATED Press at the time. Three of the
most costly canoes went to dealers-a
head, deified of Augustus, for f2. $50; a
Claudius Caesar. f3,75o, and a pair Of
imperial heads, t3,300.. Mr.. Talbot, who
is understood to have been buying for

of famous intaglios and canoes, includ-

for which he had to "a f., 1000. The sale,
as already cabled, realized f34, 1853. or
within f23S of what David Bromilow paid
for the entire collection.
Senator Hanna IS attracting much at
tention in the London papers. The
american kingmaker'' is what the Daily
Chronicle styles him. In regard to presi-
Dental prospects, the senator said:
"If you wait a year I shall. perhaps,
be able to tell O who will be the next
president. That is about all most any
body could say. But as to Admiral
Dewey, do not suppose he is likely to
walk on the carpet -
The papers publish with all seriousness
a story of Senator Hanna's visit to the
house Of commons last Tuesday. He was
taken to the house by Mr.. Henry White,
secretary of the United States embassy,
and, after listening to the opening
speeches of the debate, the senator is re-
ported to nave said:
How much will a vote on his bill be
WORTH
The St. James Gazette impertinently
comments on this version of the senator's
visit to the commons, saying he was
merely applying the standard of Wash
ington to Westminster" adding: "It will
be understood by those familiar with the
scandals of congress that he put the
question quite seriously"
The news from The Hague is regarded
as quite discouraging. Senator-elect DR.,
Chauncey NJ. Depew, talking with a rep
resentatlve of the Associated Press,
voiced the general opinion of observers,
saying:
Il am sorry to be obliged to think
what most practical men told us would
be the case, the peace conference will
