WIVES FOR ENGLISH LORDS.
Americas Contribution to the Aristoc-
racy in Thirty Years.

Mrs. George CORVALLIS West, who was
Miss Jennie Jerome, and who first mar
ried Lord Randolph Churchill, directs at
tention 10 the number of American wom-
en- who have married in England during
the last thirty years. For more than half
of the Nineteenth century the record of
the three Cation girls, gIanddaughterS of
Charles Carroll of Carroliton, remained
unapproachPd. 1t will be remembered
that those young ladies married, respect
lively, the Duke of Leeds, the Marquis
Wellesley and Lord Stafford. Since then
two Dukes of Marlborough, two Dukes
of Manchester. and the present Marquis
of Dutterin and Ava have married Amer
lean women, to say nothing of earls, Wis
counts and baTonS. Nor is il by riches
that cOronets have feen acquired. The
present Duchess of Manchester had by
no means Il great fortune. Lady Duffer-
ms dowry was not large. and Lady ES-
sex had scarcely any money 1t is large

attractiveness and charm. that American
women have challenged and acquired the
influence which they now undoubtedly
possess in English smart society At
least two American girls have married
French dukes. namely. the Due de la
RochefOucauld and the Due Decazes.
From the view point of the Almanach de
GOtha. however. none has made quite so
brilliant match as Miss Lee. the daugh-
ter of New York grocer. who married,
first the Duke OF Augustenburg and. sec
ondly, the Gen. Count Won WaIdersee.
who was the generalissimo of the allied
forces in China during the Boxer rebel
lion. We may mention, also, that a high
place in the golden book of the Roman
and Neapolitan aristocracies belongs TO
the Prince Colonna, who married an
adopted daughter of John W. Mackay.
Whether. as Mrs. CORVALLIS West

A Hard Diet.

A lunatic's remarkable habit of stone
ga ting was revealed at an inquest held at
Brookwood Asylum on the body of Ar
thur Cooke, aged AZ, who had been an in
mate of the institution for sixteen years.
He had often been seen with stones in his
mouth, but it was never supposed that he
swallowed them until q fortnight ago,
when he was taken with violent pains in
his stomach. Under medical treatment in
one day no less than 100 pieces of stone
and broken crockeryware were removed,
on another day 40 pieces and on n third
occasion 60 more But even this did not
save his life and the post norton showed
that a piece of earthenware had set up
peritonitis, which was the immediate
cause of death.-London Daily Tele-
