 IS NOW A DUCHESS 
 Married to the Duke of Man.

 Are Now in Ireland.
HER FATHER DENIES STORY

New York, November 19.-It is announced in cablegram from London to the Jour nal and Advertiser that the young Duke of Manchester and Miss Helene Thinner man. daughter of Eugene Zimmerman of Cincinnati, were married last Wednesday afternoon by the Rev. Canon Baker in the Parish Church of Marleybone, London, in which parish the duke lives.
 Owing to the opposition to the marriage by the relatives of both bride and groom the wedding was extremely quiet. The Misses Helena and Fife Evans, aunts of the bride, waited on her; Ernest Lambert and Lionel Fundel-Philips, the dukes most intimate friends attended him. The duke and duchess and Miss Helena Evans are now at Tanderagke Castle, the groom's Irish estate. The place was en fete on their arrival the dukes tenants welcoming him and his bride vociferously.
 The duke and duchess will sail for Amer ica next Saturday.
 The marriage was by special license, no bans being published.
 The bride wore a handsome gown of white cloth. She wore no jewelry.

What Records Show.

London, November 19.-An inspection of the register of the Marleybcne Parish church today shows that the reported mar riage of the Duke of Manchester to Miss Helene Zimmerman of Cincinnati, Is true. The ceremony took place last Wednes- day afternoon. The couple are now in Ire- land.
 When the Dowager Duchess of Manches- ter was asked by a representative of the Associated Press this morning if the re- port of the marriage was correct, she de- nied 1t absolutely, alleging that the an- nouncement was made at the desire of a certain person who deyoutly hoped the mar riage would occur. She evinced extreme displeasure at the idea of her son marrying Miss Zimmerman.
 Subsequently the Dowager Duchess went to the church, inspected the records, and found to her great surprise the marriage had occurred.
 Canon Baker, who officiated at the wed- ding, relates how MT. Lambert, one of the Duke of Manchester's supporters, when notifying him of the Dukes desire to be married, described the prospective bride as now and unlimited prospects, as her father Is one of the richest men in America"
 In reply to questions by Canon Baker, MT. Lambert admitted that the ladys par entS were not aware of the intended mar riage, but as he produced license issued by the archbishop of Canterbury, Canon Baker could not do otherwise than marry the couple

WILL PRECIPITATE
 FIGHT IN CONGRESS
Attempt to Pass Hays-Pauncefote
 Treaty as Planned
EFFECT ON THE CANAL BILL
Memorable Contest is Likely to Result. 1t Provides That No Fortifica- tions Be Erected Along
 the Big Ditch

New York, November 19.-Plans are being
 made by the administration, according to
 Washington dispatch to the Herald, to
 press with vigor the ratification by the
 Senate of the -Pauncefote treaty in it's
 original form, as the first step toward con- structing an isthmian canal.
 This action is likely to precipitate one
 of the memorable contests of the coming session of Congress. Opposition to the treaty Is based on the fact that it provides
 that no fortifcation shall be erected on the canal The Hepburn bill, which has
 passed the House, provides for the con- struction and protection by the secretary of war of a Nicaraguan canal. In addition
 Senator Davis has brought before the Sen- ate and commission on foreign relations that the treaty shall restrict measures
 which the United States may find necessary
 for the defense of the United States.
 The Davis amendment was copied from the tenth clause of the ConStantnople treaty securing the neutrality of the Suez canal.
 Gen. John A. Casson of Iowa, special commissioner, and formerly minister of the United States to Germany and Austria, supports the Hay-P -Pauncefote treaty. Ut is manifestly absurd to attempt to make d private national snap of the ex- elusive control and use of a great inter oceanic waterway" he said in an interview 'To establish such conditions by law would
 be challenge to all nations to combine against us and to compel us to do what we ought to do in the spirit of modern civ
 ilization and in reciprocity for the priv ileges we enjoy in the eastern world"
 No predictions can be made as to the
 vote on the treaty.

MIR. ZIMM ERMAN
EmphaticaIIy Denies the Truth Of the
 Report.

Cincinnati November H.-Eugene Zim- merman father of Miss Helene, when re- ported to him of his daughters marriage, said: You cannot make my denial too ex- plict for there is absolutely no truth in the report. There has been no marriage II
 there had I would certainly have heard of
 it, and not a word have I received. Why,
 my daughter is on the ocean at this minute on the steamship CampAnia, which is ex- pected to arrive at New York on WedneS- day. She will be accompanied by her aunt,
 Miss Evans, and by no one else. Now that she has sailed to this country, will you tell me how she could have been married?" It was suggested that the marriage took place on last Wednesday, and, If true, 1t might be possible for her to still sail on a fast steamer that Is not due In New York
 until week after the ceremony.
 Later MT. Zimmerman received cable gram from his daughter announcing her marriage last week and he cabled back his blessings. Some three years ago a cousin of the duke spent month here as the guest of Miss Zimmerman, and as the rep l resentatve of the duke in their alliance. At l that time society was astir over their mo- | bile rides and other innovations on the con- | serv1tive conventionalities of the Queen | City. It is understood that Mir. Zimmerman will have reception for the duke and the duchess on their arrival here, althc\l he openly opposed the match
 MT. Zimmerman said that he did not de- sire to talk about the marriage until he was further advised. He said, however, that there had been false reports about the Duke of Manchester, and that the duke had never been engaged to any actress, that he is not spendthrift, and has not been as notorious reports would make him. MT. Zimmerman said the fortune was dis sipated before the present duke assumed his heritage. MT. Zimmerman stated that he had received word that his daughter was
 on her way to America; that he would att tend the meeting of the directors of the Southern, Railway next Thursday, and then
 go to New York to await her arrival. He
 had only the kindest words to say of his daughter, and of whatever she may have done.
 The Duke of Manchester has met MT. Zimmerman at the seaside in this country, and is not stranger to his wealthy fath- er-n-iaw. Besid5s, being connected with many railroads, MT. Zimmerman Is Q large | stockholder in the Standard oil and local concerns and one of the largest owners of coal and iron lands in the west. While he has been widower for many years, he is known as a royal entertainer at his man. sion on Mount Auburn.

Some Copious Languages.

Among all the European languages
the English is the richest so far as the
number of words is concerned, and it
is also the one which has added to it's
vocabulary the largest number of
words within the last half century.
The latest English dictionaries contain
not less than 100000 different words.
Next in rank comes the German lam
guage, with $4,000 words, and then
come in succession the italian, with
$4,000; The French, with 10000, and
the Spanish, with 20, 900 words. Among
the Oriental languages the Arabic is
the most copious, its vocabulary being
even richer than that of the English
language.
In the Chinese languages there are
10000 syllables OF roots, ont Of which
it is possible to frame $4,000 words.
Another notable language is the old
Indian Tavil, which is now spoken in
the South of India, and which con-
tains, according to the latest calcula'
tions, 67, GAP words. In the Turkish
language there are 22.530 words, and
thus it is richer than the Spanish and
some other European languages. A
singular fact is that aborigines, as a
rule, have very limited vocabularies.
The Kafirs of South Africa have at
their disposal not more than 5000
words, and the natives of Australia
use only 1000 words.-New York

Penance For Disco

Nicholas I, Gear OF Russia, was the.
type of IN absolute aristocrat. The
succession of terrible wars which
,louded his reign did not tend to
soften his disposition or to render
him less imperious. But, rough and
harsh as he was, Nicholas had meas
ure of chivalry in his disposition.
He would not tolerate, under any
circumstances, an insult offered to h.
woman.
As the Gear was driving throu gh
the streets of st. Petersburg he caught
sight of an officer of his household
in the act of upsetting an old beggar
woman, whose hands were raised in q
prayer for aims.
The official was quite unmindful Of
the august witness Of his act, and
was rather pleased when, few hours
later, he was summoned to the impe-
rial presence. H.
Nicholas soon undeceived him, and
in the presence of dozen courtiers-
cut him to the quick with his indig-
nant reproof..
,,"Enough!' said Nicholas finally
"You will walk up and down that cor
ridor all night, and every time you
turn you will say, in a loud voice, L

Child rem.

Children do not zee the world as,
men and women behold it. The flow
ing integument that surrounds the
soul is as yet tender and translucent
The light from beyond shines more
easily through its tilmy veil, and in
that light the things Of nature are
melted into a glamour such as Older
eyes are too dim to perceive. The
world of childhood is newer and more
beautiful with life; the sun is more
radiant, the ether is more buoyant
than in the more sombre and the
darker world of after-life.
Heaven and earth, rs it were, touct
together, ,and just beyond the lthinant
misty veil Of separation spirits wall
and rustic, and their whisperings
sometimes, haply, reach the tender
ear without its hearing to understand
the words. ts
The two spaces are but hands
breath apart, and it may easily be
but a step from one to the other
