lean Princess.
From the New York World.
Paris April 2O.-Clara Ward, with her
gypsy husband, Rigo, spent ten days here
on their way TO Egypt from London
where they now are.
The Princess de Chimay wept bitterly
when the two boys by her first husband
declined to see her. They are now good
sized lads. and their action was quite vol
untary. Their condemnation of her wild
elopment has evidently cut her deeper
than the manifest disgust of the civilized
world.
Mrs. Rigo denies the newspaper story
that she is the mother of twins, saying
she has no children by Rigo.
The Hungarian fiddler, when he was in.
terviewed by the World correspondent
showed the most dumfounding indiffer-
ence toward his American wife. He went
so far as to say:
She can't be more tired of this cramped
life than l am.

that would be solution, but a woman

TO STOP THE B0OKMAKERS.
Attorney for POOIrOOms seeks to stop
Betting at Aqueduct.

New York, April "A local attorney,
who is counsel for most of the poolroom
proprietors. whose places have been raid
ed by the committee of fifteen, called on
Police Commissioner Murphy to-day and
asked him to put a stop to betting at
the Aqueduct race track. The attorney
called the attention of Col. Murphy to the
section of the Percy Gray racing law,
which requires racing associations TO post
on their ground notices prohibiting book
making, etc. He declared that instead
of seeking to prevent gambling the spe-
cial and regular police at the track aided
it by getting the crowds of bettors
in line to facilitate the work of the lay
ers.
Col Murphy asked the attorney to
make his request in writing, and this he
will do tomorrow. Then Col. Murphy
will ask his counsel for an opinion on
the subject. The commissioner assured
the attorney that he would enforce the
law il he became convinced that it re-
quired him to drive the bookmakers from
the tracks.

been tnpped, when Marloupiot, dirty
and disreputa ble-iooking nighthawk, but
generous and honest withaL who was
driving aimlessly near by, FASTENED TO
the rescue. Jumping from his seat, the
cabby began to belabor the thugs with
his whiphandle just as two of the trio
were holding Mr.. Clark down, while the
third began TO go through his pockets.
Marloupiot WIS promptly sandbagged
and rendered unconscious. but HIS inter
vention gave the Senator a chance TO re-
gain his feet Then two OF the high

HYPNorrsT BROWN SET FREE.
Charge of Cheating and swinding,
by Manager Wolfe Dismissed,

Brunswick, Ga, April 2?.-Prof. Boone,
the hypnotist, who was arrested some
days ago under a warrant for cheating
and swindling, sworn out by Manage
Wolfe, of the Opera House, was tried
by Justice of the Peace Connolly this
morning. Several hundred persons were
present to hear the evidence. 1t was the
intention of the judge to hold the trial
in his office. but after seeing the crowd
he adjourned to the Court House, where
there was more room, and not a seat in
the large hall was vacant.
The evidence showed that Prof. Boone
had wilfully broken his contract with
Manager Wolfe, but there was nothing
to indicate that it was a case of cheat
ing and swindling, and the defendant
was discharged.
AS soon as Judge Connolly rendered his
decision there was general applause, and
the hypnotist held a regular reception.
Since coming here some days ago Boone
has made himself strong with the men
about town, and it was easy to see that
the crowd at the trial to-day was with
him.

BABY AS A PLAYTHING.
Millionaire Gets it for Little Lord
Burlington to Play With.


FROM the New YOrK world.
Paris, April 2O.-A tiny baby was I'M
expectedly added to the Bradley Martin
family this week.
Mrs. Bradley Martin, her daughter,
Lady Craven; her son-in-law, Lord era
ven, and her grandchild, the 3-year-old
Niscount Burlington, have been here for
the last three weeks, and will remain I'M
til the London season in June. Wednes-
day the little Lord Burlington was busy
making mudcakes in the park, when his
nurse sent him to give some pennies to
a famished-looking woman with a baby
in her arms and four others hanging to
her skirts.
The 3-year-old English lord immediate
ly took a great fancy to the sucking
.cheWed his finger" The mother was
Viscount could admire the baby all he
wanted.
When his nurse tried to take the boy
home Lord Burlington kicked, bit and
rolled himself in the mud rather than
part from his new friend.
Il want that baby" he cried.
Fearing the Viscount would go into
commissions his nurse asked the pauper
mother to accompany her as far as the
Elysees Palace Hotel But there the
youngster again made such scene that
hundreds of passers-by gathered.
Finally Grandma Bradley-Martin came
down and Immediately decided that Lord
Burlington should have the playmate he
wanted.
Inquiry proved the mother to be worthy
of interest. The husband and father was
killed in a quarry and his numerous fam
lily left in absolute want.
The pretty paper baby is now dressed
in the costliest finery and is the little
lords most precious toy. She will be
adopted by the Cravens and will be rear
ed with the Viscount. The baby's mother
looking trim in new clothes, will have a
place in the nursery. Her other children
have been placed at school by the Brad
lew Martins.
