is such that he now regards the counts
claim bevond doubt. BY the aid of
New York and Philadelphia attorneys
the matter will be fully prosecuted,
and as the cause advances Mr.. Aler
will write the case for publication bv
a syndicate of newspapers. The re-
cent developments Mr.. Aler states are
largely due to the recent newspaper
articles.
Bloomfield H. Moore head of the
firm OF the Jessup & Moore Paper
Company and millionaire. died in
Philadelphia July 5, 1878, leaving
large estate, worth millions, to his
wife, Clara Jessup Moore, during her
natural life, and at her death revert
ing to his son, Clarence b. Moore.
Ella Moore. intermarried to Count q.
e. Won Rosen, of Stockholm, Sweden
and Lillian Moore intermarried to
Baron de Bildt, of Stockholm.
The countess Won Rosen was born
in Philadelphia in 1913 and was mar
ried to Count Won Rosen III 1864. The
official record shows that this mar
riage gave issue to five children as fol-
lows Reinhold Gustaf Edward Moore
Won Rosen, born 1865; Carl Clarence
Won Rosen, born 1867: Eugene Erike
Adalbert August Won Rosen, born
1870 Erike Carl Gustaf Bloomfield
Won Rosen, born 1879; Ella G. G.
Maud Won Rosen born 1872.
Count G. G. Won Rosen whilst oc-
cupying an official position at London
became acquainted with Cyrus W.
Field, the originator of the cable sys-
tenn, and upon his invitation visited
at his home in New York in honor If
Count Won Rosen and ii was there he
first met Miss Ella Moore. After a
courtship they were married in 1864,
as above stated. 1t was through Count
Won Rosen and his wife that is Lillian
Moore, afterward became acquainted
with Baron de Bildt. whom she after
ward married. This latter marriage
resulted in the birth of two children.
Some years ago the Baron de Bildt
secured divorce from his wife in the
London court and has since been
holding diplomatic post at Rome.
Her mind for years has been unbal-
anced and she has been continually
under the care of attendants.
Until short time ago Count G. q.
Won Rosen occupied the position of
First Chamberlain and Master of
Court ceremonies to King Oscar I. of

among other things stated that Dur
ing the period from 1878 TO 1895 /
gave from my income unto my three
children 81, 51l, All and unto my grand
children upwards of $2G5, 600. Unto
my son, Clarence B. Moore, my child,
my co-executor and my attorney in
fact, who now charges me with being
insane, gave ont of my income in
said estate since 1878 upwards Of $780,,
600. -
Both petition and answer recite
til the time of her death it is said
that Mrs. Moore had not spoken to
her son for a period of ten years.
Mrs. Moore is supposed to have died
of a broken heart over her troubles
with John w. Kelly, of motor fame,
in London January 5. 1899, leaving an
estate there Of something like SO, 000,-
600. The particulars heretofore pub
lished of the escapade of Count Rein
hold Won Rosen with Madame Hart
man, the prima donna of the Royal
Swedish Theatre at Stockholm are alb
solutely correct. Nine Hartman since
married Baron Cedestrom and is now
residing with him at Mahon, Sweden.
The recent decision by the London
court was entirely a default proceed
ing and the American claimant will
still have an opporuity to contest his
claims three, but this principle and
first action will now probably be at
Philadelphia. as his counsel are of
opinion that they can by an action
here raise the question involved
The very recent development in the
case satisfies his counsel that he has
perfectly legitimate claim to such an
extent that they will renew the fight
upon the theory that there are six
children instead of five. The counts
counsel have evidence that he is we'll
known by the entire Won Rosen fami-
ly to such au extent that he was rear
ed and lived with the family at Stock
holm until he came to America, and
was supported and maintained by them
and that he has always been known
by the name of .Rienhold Won Rosen,
also that Mrs. Moore. his grand
mother knew him full well.
By the rules of practice in the Lon
don courts the case had been set for
hearing in open court when all par
ties were expected to be present. At
the time the case was decided Court
Won Rosen was not there and the
court simply decided that by reason
of his absence he. of course, had no
standing in court and upon the evil
dence produced by his Opposition re-
cognized the Stockholm claimant. The
London court did not declare him a

RAISING SPRING CHICKENS.

Spring chickens are expensive eat
ing when one has to buy them, but
there is no reason why farmers wife
or daughter should not treat her fam
lily to a dish occasionally. if she does
not mind the same trouble she would
give to a few plants in the window or
to a canary bird
Early sitting hens are a delusion
and a snare. | had heard so much
of the trouble of incubators and the
expense of brooder-houses that
thought it of no use to try to raise
early spring chickens, except as a bust
ness. But l could not resist expert
menting with a five-dollar incubator. |
bought one of the hot-water kind.
thinking it would be more easily regu-
lated than the hot-air kind, 1t held
fifty eggs. set it in little hall closet
that was rather close. and seldom used
except to hang scrap-bags in.
| tried running the incubator empty
for a day or two until I thought l
could venture my eggs in 1t. Varia-
lions of temperature, unless very pro-
nounced and continued, seem to make
little difference. Too high temperature
the first week and too low temperature
the last, is to be especially guarded
against The directions come with the
Matched every egg that was fertile, but
one.
My first brooder was small round
basket with piece of old flannel in
the bottom and a piece to cover. l
began to feed the chicks after the
second day, and a healthier, more
hungry set never saw. For feeding
ground, I had a light box with thin
slat top, IA bottom covered with old
newspa pers md a layer of coarse sand
about an inch deep, set in sunny
window, and after a few days they
staid all day in it. and were only put
in their basket and covered up at
night.
I fed them coarse corn meal, mixed
crumbly and cracked grain, and made
them scratch in the sand for it,
changed the sand once week. l oc-
casionally gave them a small piece of
raw beef of such a size that one chick
could pick it up and run with it, the
others chasing, which afforded an
hours vigorous exercise. They grew
right along, and | only lost one, and
that through accident. In six weeks
they were large enough to broil, and
thirty or forty broilers at this season
are great treat.-A. F. L., in the

The Kaiser and His Admirals.

Apropos of a recent paragraph in
this column concerning theGerman EN-
peror and his games, a correspondent
informs US that when the Jane naval
war game" was produced, one of its
first adherents was the Kaiser. He
spent several days in devising various
additional rules, and, having made
these to his satisfaction, had various
admirals up to play with him. The
admirals were ANONYMOUSLY defeated,
no matter what might be the odds
against their imperial opponent,
whereupon the Kaiser dryly remark
ed that the sea kriegspiel was not
suitable for emperors. and sent the ap-
paratus to the navy headquarters at
KEEL On at least one occasion he has
acted there as umpire, but he has
steadfastly refrained from taking an
admirals part CT the special rules in
vented by the Kaiser, only one has as
yet been formally embodied in the
game, and that quite recently.-London
Chronicle.
