WHERE HE THOUGHT

They are telling on the street a
little story about the Bernalillo coun.
ty delegation % the Las Vegas con.
vention which is worth tellilg in the
public prints. OF course Il may not
be true, for In political conventions
many things are likely TO be told
which have little basis In fact, but
this one is a good story and II Is pro-
nounced fact by some men who are
In a position to know.
The story goes that early Saturday
morning Sheriff Thomas 8. Hubbell
Of Bernalillo county, who was quietly
sleeping IN his room at the Castenada
hotel In Las Vegas, was suddenly
awakened by q series OF shouts and
walls. seeming to be the pitiful plants
Of q bunch Of lost souls on their way
down the broad and flowery highway
to eternal hot air. The sheriffs big
heart is well known abroad in the land,
and 4 was not missing on this occa-
sion. He was moved to deep pity for
these poor souls and with him action
always follows inspiration. 80 as he

Death Of High Noble Arsuses
Speculation IS Z Dispesi-
tion Of Gloucester House
FAMOUS MANSION
Sons ofDnke of Cambridge & Cane
Inherit ON Account of Fathers
Invalid Marriage

LONDON, March 22.--The death OF
the Duke of Cambridge has aroused
considerable speculation as to the dis-
position of Gloucester house, which,
contrary to general belief. does not
belong to the crown, but was the
private property Of the late duke. to
whom It was bequeathed by his aunt,
the duchess Of Gloucester. The man
sion occupies q commanding position
at the corner Of Park Lane ami Pic
cadilly. and Its windows look on to
both or these famous throughfares. Ii
is filed from cellar to garret with
art treasures. including some magnif-
icent pictures and q wonderful coli

Of them dating from the eighteenth
century and painted by the leading
miniaturists Of the day. The apart
ments are stately and contrast pleas.

palaces Of the locality. Gloucester
house is one Of the few great man.
sions Of London where electric light

sticking fast to the old custom Of us
ing wax candies.
Gloucester house is altogether too
palatial q mansion, and likewise
much too costly a one to admit Of
its being retained by any Of the
dukes sons. There are three Of the
latter, the offspring Of the marriage
Of the late duke to the Dublin actress,
Miss Fairhrother. who up to ths time
Of her death was known az NfA Fitx-
george, name now borne BY her
sons. This marriage was an invalid
one from legal point Of view, and
consequently tho sons do not inherit
the rank or title OF their father. The
late duke felt keenly the implied
slight on the lady whom he honored
as his wife. but was never able to
take position as the duchess. Queen
Victoria always had . kindly feeling
for Mrs. Frltzgeorge, and to her child
rem Windsor. Balmoral and Buckipg-
ham palaces were always open. King
Edward has continued to share this
feeling for the family OF the duke Of
Cambridge and on more than one oc-
casion has made II q point to signal

China's S
Bad Fix

PARIS, March 22.--Foreign Min
lister Del Casse has received d copy
OF Secretary Hays dispatch from Min
lister Conger at Pekin containing
China's assurances OF the unproyoca-
tive action 10 DO taken BY her against
either OF the belligerents. The au-
thorities here have no doubt China is
ready to give assurances, but CON
slider the conditions on the Manchur-
Ian frontier are somewhat at variance
with the assurances. 1t Is held that
General Kuropatkin's plans for de-
fensive campaign have given unusual
Importance to China's activity. II the
Russians had taken the aggressive
near the coast 1t is said the war prob
ably would have been short and de-
cisiye, but as General Kuropatkin's
campaign Is based upon awaiting the
enemy at Hardin and Mukden 1t Ia
held that this completely changes the
military situation, requiring that the
Japanese push inland, thus giving up
their strong naval support. As their
land forces are comparatively limited
for an invasion q Manchuria. II Il
ahe belief III high quarters that they
VIII Increasingly feel the need Of aux
iliarles. 1t is not believed Japan will
openly seek the aid Of China, but tina,
China, gradually will be drawn In BY

How Ii
Happened

Yesterdays Albuquerque Citizen
says:
The Las Vegas Optic Is one Of the
best and most enterprising papers In
the territory, but It was caught in a
predicament last Saturday. It desired
to publish the whole proceedings and
resolutions OF the republican conven.
tion that afternoon and the committee
on resolutions did not agree till late
In the afternoon. TO help the paper
out one Of the chronic platform writ
ers Of Santa Fe gave the paper copy
Of the resolutions which he had pre-
pared, and which he assured the re-
porter for the paper would be adopt.
ed BY the committee. Those resolu-
tions were put in type and published,
but they were not the resolutions
drafted BY the committee and adopted
by the convention. No injury would
have resulted II these false resolu.
tions had not been telegraphed ID
Washington.
In the above the Citizen is*mistaken
in several important particulars. It
is true that the resolutions did not
pass the committee until late III the
afternoon. An Optic representative
was present, however. and was favored
with draft OF the resolutions as they
were introduced to the committee
This draft was furnished the printers.
and as fast as q clause was passed N
committee 1t was released Through
an extraordinary inadyertence. a few
lines Of the defeated clause deprecat-
ing Rodey's action were printed. After
a few papers had been run off, how.
eror, this error was noted and the
elimination was made. The Citizen evi.
dently got one Of the copies that con.
tanned the error. However It is diff
cult to see how any misapprehension
could have arisen. as In the paragraph
introducing the resolutions II was spe-
officially stated that the clause Of de.
precation had been moved and was
defeated. As to the telegraphing to
Washington, The Optic specials to
the Associated Press to the president
and to thedelegate stated that the Of
fort to deprecate Mr.. Rodey's action
had been killed unanimously
