LADY cURzoN A DETECTIVE
Former Chicago Girl Disguised in Ma
tive Dress Solved Indian
Murder Mystery.

Lady Curzon, who was Miss Letter, Of
Chicago, is q clever detective, and this
incident could be made into an absorbing
story By either Conan Doyle or Rudyard
Kipling.
A retired Indian Judge tellsit HeWas
dining at the Viceregal lodge one night,
and the conversation turned upon SEN
satiOnal murder trial which he was con-
Quoting at the time. After dinner Lady
CurEon drew the Judge aside and said:

innocent Send 4 detective to me and I
viii direct him TO the house where the
real murderer iS now hiding. only dis
covered the fact this afternoon, when I
was down there in disguise with one Of
our syees."
Sure enough. the murderer was caught.
as Lady CurzOn had said, and the limo
cent man was released. This incident.
becoming known, has made her very
popular with the people Of Calcutta, who
are not used to English ''mem-sahibs''
taking 80 much interest in their humble
lives.

WORLDS RICHEST FAMILY

A writer IN the Tattler, q London

argues that however great the riches

there s. no family IN the United States

-ROthBehilds. he makes q good case.
Il appears that careful estimates Of
the Possessions Of the French branch
Of the family place its riches ct OF
above $500, 000,O 900. The British Rotha-
ehilds are rated stiu higher In the

rich, AID there are other RothsehildG
SIN 70 be recko1ed with. Altogether,
& is claimed that the wealth Of the
entire family Is not less than $780,.
100000.
II that sum Is anywhere near the
marks. then It follows that there Is no
American family anything like 80 rieb
as the RothsckHds. They can easily
outweigh any other house IN the
extent and Val1e a their property. And
most Of It is very solid and safe From
