The Duchess de Tallyrand ct Sagan
has had quite a series of difficulties in
clothing her son for his marriage 10
Miss Morton, and has twice been
Obliged to invoke the courts to her aid.
Owing to the condition of the Duke de
T3llyrand ct Sagan the duchess was
kSrced to attend to all the legal fea
tyres of the marriage. In order to
avoid family complications she ad
dressed herself to the courts for per-
mission to give her son a wedding dot
of $250,000. The courts granted the
request, particularly as the duchess de-
clared she had every right to dispose
of such sum of money, as her own dot
had been $1,000, 900. At the last min
ute, however, there was a complica-
tion in the matter. 1t is said tho
brides father did not find $3.50, 900 suf-
ficient. Whatever the real reason, just
before the marriage the duchess has
tened to Paris from London and again
asked the courts to allow her to add
her superb residence and gardens to
the dot. A day or two before the cere-
mony the courts granted the duchess
request. and Miss Morton, now Count
ess Bosom de Perigord. will in conse-
quence preside over as its absolute mis-
tress one of the most beautiful home,
in Paris and one full of historic asso-

The return of Henry Irving and Ell

Knickerbocker theater, New York, the

the most fashionable, audience of the

and has been revived at intervals
since, but it is picture of royal mis-

representation.

Several English railroad officials are

studying the operation and manage

group recently returned to England
after a similar trip of inspection. 1t

thus being paid to the efficiency and
success of the American railroad meth

looking particularly into the handling
of freight and the system of signals.

that the English system falls far be-

Washington, March l3.-Secretary
Wilson of the agricultural department
is pushing the wireless telegraDhy
experiments along the Virginia. and
North Carolina coasts. The work is
being done by Secretary Wilson's d.
rectlon under the immediate super
vision of Professor Willis L. Moore.
Chief of the weather bureau. Profess
sor Moore made this statement to the
Associated Press regarding the results
OF the experiments so far conducted:
1.-THE most efficient method Of long
distance transmission has been found
to be from wire cylinders. The new
coast stations are being equipped with
cylinders Of 16 wires each. From
these cylinders it is expected to cover
a magnetic field of not less than 500
miles. The stations now in operation
are at Hatteras and at Roanoke ISL
and, in the Pamlico sound, North
Carolina. Workmen are beginning the
construction of a station at Cape
Henry which will be the third sta
ton. When this is finished the two
remote stations will be 127 miles
apart. The three points now are con-
nected by a government telegraph
line, but this line will be abandoned
on the completion of Cape Henry
station. This incidentally will save
the expense Of maintenance of half
dozen repair stations"

Faith stopped and picked up the dust,
ing cloth and then rose to her feet. -
Il didn't hurt your piano" The words
were on her lips, and her heart was hot
within her. But she choked the words
down, and without replying to Mrs
Fulton she started to- go out. Even
In her excited condition Of mind she
could not help noticing that the young
man was gazing at her with great at:
tention. #~4s = 80, -

young man, in big, hearty voice. 1T

Faith colored to her hair at the unex-
pected praise, while Mrs. Fulton shut
the piano with bang and looked ex.
tremely annoyed.
"You can finish your work here some
other time," she said to Faith sharply.
Faith went out of the parlor without
having said word She was glad
when she reached the kitchen that she
had controlled herself, but the effort
not to say something in defense, to ex-
cuse her action, cost her a tremendous
struggle. AS she prepared the midday
meal, she choked several times with a
dry sob as she realized that she must
not try to be anything but hired girl
while employed In that capacity.

she said to herself again and again,

Then she quieted her excitement by
recalling the home circle. Her fathers
face came up before her, and she said:
II am selfish to mind such a thing. For
dear fathers sake!'
