VISITING A SHRINE.

the Sacred City of Kun.
Kun, walled city of Persia, ranks
second to Meshed in sanetity, OF, ac-
s,nnt of the famous shrine of Masnma
Eatina, sister of the Imam Ria, ia
NOUS saint of the Mobammedans.
While Lieutenant Rawlinson was on
his way to Teheran he heard much of
his sacred city and the glories of the
sirine, which, it was said, no Euro
| can had ever entered. Death, so rumor
whispered, would be the portion Of the
audacious infidel who should be discov-
cred within its precincts.
Toa young and ardent spirit danger
ous adventure is an irresistible attrac-
tion. Young Rawlinson determined to
visit the shrine. Disguised as Persian
pilgrim, thousands of whom annually
journey to the sacred city, he joined the
crowd of pilgrims. His knowledge of
Persian and of the customs of the coun-
try enabled him to pass undetected
through the temple gates and to make
his way to the tomb of the saint. The
guardian gave him the customary form
II words and he repeated them
But his curiosity almost caused his
detection. Attracted by magnificent
s1its of steel armor which hung ON the
walls, he was gazing at them, when
suddenly he found that he had turned
his back upon the sacred shrine where
in the saint was entombed.
A thrill of alarm startled him, but
the discourtesy, impossible to a true
believer, had not been noticed. II it
had been, there would probably have
been no further career for the young
lieutenant, who subsequently became

GRIEF.

LONDON, October 27.-The death of
Sims Reeves, at Worthing, emove
an idol Of the British public, who for
80 years eclipsed any prima donna of
those days. Lengthy obituaries and
"reminiscences Of the famous tenor ap-
pear on all sides, but a pathetic feature
connected with his death has quite es-
capped attention. Reeves caught a chill
a few days ago and it developed into
bronchitis. But his condition was so
improved that he was not believed to
be in oanger. Mrs. Reeves, who is
many years younger than the deceased
tenor to whom she was married in 1895,
after the death Of his first wife, left
her husband in their modest home in
Worthing, to sing in London for the
benefit of the survivors of Balaclava.
Just as Mrs. Reeves commenced sing
ing Kathleen Mavourneen" a tele-
gram was received at the theatre an
nouncing the death of Sims Reeves.
When the song was finished and the
applause was at its height, the news of
her husbands death was broken to
Mrs. Reeves, but the audience, ignorant
of this behind-the-scenes tragedy, kept
on demanding encore. The widow was
removed from the theatre On the verge
of collapse.

THIS BROUGHT PROMINENCE

NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-Opposite to
and facing the ~pretentious villa resi-
dence OF Cornelius L. Alvord, Jr., on
Chester Hill, Mount Vernon, is a little
frame church which led to the discov-
cry of his $500, 900 defalcation.
Alvord's injunction against the Ches-
ter Hill Methodist Episcopal church
brought him into prominence. Many
tongues were 1oosened, and the twice
told tales of the clerks princely extra
vagance o reached the ears OF Geo.
F. Baker, president of the First Nation
al bank. Then came Alvord's undoing.
Dr.. Thomas A. Fletcher, alderman, of
Mount Vernon, and president of the
executive board of the little church,
is credited with having given the first
intimation to the bank concerning
Alvord's mode of living. DR.. Fletcher
at first spoke casually of the extrava-
gance of the teller to a prominent ban
ker of this city, who at once demanded
more details.
DR.. Fletcher described the legal pro-
ceedings hat Alvord had begun two
years ago to prevent the erection Of
the little church. He explained that as
the owner of the property, the i%njunc-
ton was served upon him when OBJ
tanned by Milo J. White, the attorney
retained by Alword.
He had seen Alvord drive through
Mount Vernon and had often heard of
the midnight revels in his house. He
inquired concerning him, and learned
hat he was note teller of the First
National bank. He was astonished to
discover that Alvord was living at
a cost ten times above his apparent in
come.
The banker who heard the story for
got, until about two weeks ago, to in
form MIR. Baker, it is said. DR.. Fletcher
met his friend again, and Alvord's new
and latest flights of prodigality We're
discussed. The bank official re-
marked:
Il must speak to Mr.. Baker about
that. | had forgotten to mention it to
him when you spoke of it sonh time
ago. But he should know it immedi-
ately."
Then DR.. Fletcher's friend told the
president Of the First National bank
the story that was for two years every
day gossip in Mount Vernon. The in
vestigation, it is said, was then started
which ultimately led to the discovery
Of Alvord's theft.

NOW WANTS MONEY BACK
SHE SPENT ON BLENHEIM.
LADY WILLIAM BERESFoRD SUES
HER STEP-sON, DUKE OF
MARLBOROUGH.
SAYS CoNsUEL0 sNUBBED HER.
A MARRIAGE FOR CONVENIENCE
THAT HAS PROVEN UN-
SATISFACTORY.

LONDON, October 27.-Lady William
Beresford formerly Lillian, Duchess OF
Marlborough, has brought action
against the young Duke of Marlborough
to recover the money which she spent
in improving Blenheim Palace during
the life time of the last duke. The
matter came up originally when the
present duke succeeded to the title, but
owing to the friendly relations exist
ing between the duke and his step
mother it was temporarily arranged.
Since the dukes marriage to Consuelo
Vanderbilt, it is reported, an estrange-
ment has grown up between Lady Ber-
esford and her step-son. On more
than one.occasion, it is said, the young
American duchess snubbed her coun-
trywoman, Lady Beresford vas TO-
merly Mrs. Louis H~ammersley, of New
York;, until the latter determined she
could not submit to such treatment any
longer and she asks the law to
compel her step-son to return the
amounts she spent on Blenheim.
Another a~ristocratic lawsuit which
will shortly be heard in camera, is the
application of the Warehouses of Ar
glesey to have her marriage to The
Marquis, who is the head of the Paget
family, declared null. They were mar
RED in 1898, but it was strictly a mar
riage of convenience between cousins
arranged for the sake of inheriting
property, which, otherwise could not
have been touched by either of them.
They both agreed to live their oWn
lives. Apparently, this extraordinary
arrangement did not work we'll in more
ways than one. 1t is asserted that the
marquis agreed to give his wife $4,000
the first year and $4,000 the second
year and SO on, until the allowance
reached G10. 600 a year. However, the
alleged allowance was stopped almost
