peacefully and without a struggle. Such
a death came to him.

of coincidence were received at the fam
lily residence.

Leaves on the
Celtic for
England.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3O.-Unattended
by any one, save a man servant, Will
liam Waldorf Astor sailed frem the
city of his birth for London to-day on
the Celtic. Every other passenger on
the boat had friends on the pier to wish
bon voyage and wave a farewell.
No one spoke to William Waldorf
Aston but the reporters, and his con 4
GLIDING statement was a complaint that
he was not treated right during his
brief visit to this city.
It was a hard matter to get Astor
to talk, but finally he consented to
brief interview. The first question put
to him was:
"Will you be kind enough to an
.nounce the date of the marriage of
your daughter, Pauline. and Captain H.
Spender Clay?"
Indeed not" was the reply. But
want to set the American newspapers
right before 1 go. 1 have never said
that 1 opposed the match
Your interest in Christian Science
has created. considerable attention
since your arrival in New York" Astor
was told.
/ II can't see why it should" he
said. HAS not a gentleman the right
to seek new light? have been greatly
annoyed at the Juror which has fol-
lowed my every movement"
Perhaps" it was suggested, this
was on account of the prominence of
your family in America"
II can't say" he answered. IF
were of the nobility 1 could not have
been more greatly annoyed"
Astor then turned on his heel and
walked to the promenade walk, where
he was standing alone and gloomy
when the Celtic backed into the North
River and pointed her nose for the sea.

Tests of Real Character.

To know how to expect little and en-

bracing effect
Cheerfulness under blue skies and

the cheeriness of the surroundings. 1t
