1t is not true that Prince Prosper Of Areuberg
has been acquitted and free result Of the
third trial to which he has just been subjected for
a cowaTdly and brutal murder perpetrated under
circumstances OF frightful atrocity years ago
IN Africa. At the first trial the prince was con-
demned to death This committed, and then
a second trial was ordered. and he was sentenced
10 fifteen years penal servitude, which was miti-
gated 10 fifteen years ordinary Imprisonment About
year ago a great scandal created by the
stories circulated to the privileges and advan-
tages which he was allowed in Jail and which led
TO the dismissal OF the principal officers Of the
penitentary. But the investigation in connection
Herewith brought to light such extravagances and
eccentricfties Of conduct the part Of the prince
in JAIL that this. taken in conjunction with
his record prior to his departure for Africa and
his conduct in the colony. raised doubts 10
whether ne had not all the tine been insane
Accordingly another trial ordered. and the
testimony produced there such that he
pronounced irresponsible. and while acquitted OF
felony that score. yet relegated for the
mainder OF his days TO asylum for the criminal
insane. and from which he will never emerge He
does not recover his liberty. He merely exchanges
a fifteen years term in penitentisry for a life

King Edward has been twice TO call on Lady
C,rrzon since her return 20 London from India. and
the Queen received her most graciousy and even
afrectionately at buckingham Palace. In fact. she
has been overwhelmed with attentions since her
arrival IN England Although Lord Curzon. who
will join her IN May IS slated to return to India
for n further term Of office as Viceroy in the fall
yet It is unlikely that tho project will be carried
into execution. For Il IS almost certain that be-
tween now and the autumn the Cabinet Will go to
pieces and IN that event the Liberal administra-
ton under Lord Rosebery, which would undOubt-
edy take its place would certainly insist on hav-
ing n man OF fits political ideals as Governor
General Of India. rather than Tory such as Lord
Curzon The very fact that Lord and Lady Curzon
have compelled the United States Ambassador TO
vacate their mansion in Carlton House Terrace In
dcates that they do propose to return to India
For il they had merely intended 10 spend a few
weeks that IS 70 say only the summer, IN England.
they would certainly have rented a furnished house
for the season. else gone 10 n hotel. rather
than force Ambassador Choate 20 terminate his
occupation OF their mansion. which he was anx
ios to retain as long he remained United states
Envoy to the Court Of ST. James. and for which
he was paying them a very large rent.
The health OF both Lord and Lady Curzon has
been much impaired by their residence in India,
and my own conviction. based on letters from Lon
don. Is that neither Of them Will return TO the
East after the viceroy comes home in May.
Lord Curzon by the by. Is the only one not actu-
the Chain Of the Royal Victorian order. In fact.
all the other wearers OF the chain are monarchs
or princes the blood. with the exception OF the
Dukes Of Argyll and Of Fife one Of whom Is the
brother-in-law and the other the son-inlaw OF the
King The Chain of the Victorian Order Is a
grade still higher than that of the Knight Grand
Cross and the Of the order instead OF being
worn suspended to a ribbon. is hung around the
neck by means OF a gold chain precisely In the
same manner the Cross of the Order Of HOhen-
zollern conferred by the German Emperor. Lord
Curzon received this altogether exceptional distinc
ton from King EDWARD at the time Of the
ton durbar when 1t handed him In the
name of Edward VII at Delhi by the Duke Of Con-
naught.
All the pictures now being published Of Prince
Louis Napoleon, who Is to command the Russian
cavalry in Manchuria, represent him with a close
cropped beard. Yet he shaved Off the latter some
two years ago. and has merely retained his mus
tache. which is jet black and heavy and small
growth OF hair on the chin. which. together with
the general shaps of the head the tone Of the COM
plexion and the reposeful, almost phlegmatic ex-
preston Of the face. leave a feetinR but very IN
mistakabe suggestion Of Napoleon III.
