London-There Is at last a prob
ability that the old feud between the
house of Hohenzollern and the house of
Hanover may come to an end.
The first step was taken when the Grand
Duke Frederick of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
was recently bethrothed, with the ap-
prevail OF the kaiser. to the Princess Alex
andra OF Cumberland,
And it is now announced that the duke
Of Cumberland, with the whole of his fam
lily and his future son-in-law, will visit
the king of Denmark in celebration of the
venerable monarch's eighty-seventh BIRTH
day.
Among the guests will be the highly sus-
ceptible crown prince OF Germany. With
her father and sister travels the beautiful
and witty Princess Olga OF Cumberland.
To Visit King of Denmark.
Queen Alexandra, who. like all good
women, is an inveterate matchmaker, will,
or course, be by the side of her aged
father, and the result may be easily fore
seen. Both King Christian and King Ed
ward VII. are thoroughly conversant with
the kaiser's sentiments on this subject,
and all Germany hopes that the influence
Of the English queen may result IN the
betrothal of the Princess Olga to the
crown prince.
OF all the American women who nave
won a distinguished place in the English
peerage, the countess Of Tankerville per-
haps nearer approaches the ideal type Of
the great lady Of the middle Victorian era
than any OF her compesrs.
Born of one of the famous old Dutch
knickerbocker families, the Van Marters,
whose homes lay around the Greenwich
village, her girlhood was mostly spent in
Rome.
Rarely, save at some great court cere-
monal at which her presence is COM
nanded by the king, is she seen in Lon
don. While her countrywomen whirl
through the maelstrom OF f~rtvolity and
gayety in London and Paris. and the re-
sorts Of southern France, Lady Tanker
vile remains almost secluded In the beau
tiful Chillingham castle in Northumber-
land.
Her time Is spent in researches into an
tlent literature, In music and in miniature
painting, OF which both she and her ,hus-
band are passionately fond.
Joke on Mr.. Carnegie.
Andrew Carnegie, blindly grooming for
escape under the avalanche OF letters,
I mostly from literary societies or municipal
corporations hungry for libraries and coll
lege endowments. has at last turned upon
his tormentors with q mild protest.
Inc Brecon town council among others
recently addressed several communica-
tons to Mr.. Carnegie in reference to q
proposed library, but unfortunately for
their purpose the council had not yet
reached the stage of modern Improvement
In which a typewriter is brought into
common use, and preferred the old method
Oh letters written in longhand on thick
paper.
A series Of these letters Weighing about
two pounds each provoked this reply from
Mr.. Carnegie's secretary. IT would draw
your attention to the fact that we have to
carry about with US some thousands O.;
sets Of correspondence; and II every cor
respondent wrote on 4htck paper and in
longhand as you do 1t would be impossible
for US to do business. vii you kindly
typewrite your communications on bust
ness paper?"
Death of Duke of Cambridge.
The season Of 1901, just struggling into
birth after the darkness of Lent, has at
Its outset received a staggering blow.
For the recent death of the venerable
duke OF Cambridge, on the very eve of
the first "~drawingroom' has thrown all
things of the court into confusion.
The two drawing rooms are, of course

ere the event of their young lives has
passed into memory.
