United States last week she was much
disappointed to find that her daughter
the Duchess of Roxburghe, had not Sc
cured town house, if not as a per-
manent residence, at least for the Lon

had cabled from America that a house
was to be secured at any cost. and an
tlcipating no difficulty, she invited a
considerable number of American
1rlends to be her guests during a part
or the season. Her disappointmen was
intense when she arrived and found
that she had to put up at one of the
hotels
she Immediately telephoned to all the
ieaolng nrms OF house agents, asking
"nat they had on their books. and hay-
ing satisfied herself that there was no
englnle residence to be obtained. she
told her friends that she would leave
London and spend the season in par,s
1t was only through the intervention
OF the Dowager Duchess Of Roxburehe
that she was prevailed upon to aban-
don the idea of starting off at once.
Arrangements were quickly made by
which Mrs. Goelet and her party are to
be entertained later on at the Dukes
place in Scotland and matters were
thus smoothed over for the time being.

Duchess are, the house agents declare.

Asks for Large Allowance.

Mrs. Mary Prior. widow of the late
James K. Prior, filed a petition in the
Superior Court yesterday for a month
ly allowance of $500 from the estate.
She says her husbands estate is valued
at $3.50, 900, all of it being community
property. Although she is in receipt
of a small income from her separate
estate, Mrs. Prior says it is not suf-
ficient to maintain her large residence
and meet the many demands upon her.
and, as there are no debts against her
husbands estate. the allowance asked
for is not regarded as excessive.

The County Fairs.-The annual agricul-
tura fair is an American institution, says the
Baltimore american. The first fair of this
character was held in New York State less than
a century ago. There were some in Europe
long before the days Of Denny Brook Fair,
dating back to the time even when the sway
of the Roman Empire was supreme. These
early fairs were for trading purposes exclusive
ly, not in horses and cattle alone, but in all
forms of merch andise. In Russia, which is
more medieval than any other portion of Eu-
rope these trading fairs are still kept up. But
the agricultural fair, as it is known in this
country, like most other American ideas, has
penetrated Europe, and these farming exhibits
are now held almost as universally on the other
side of the Atlantic as in this country.
The county fairs, as we know them in this
country, are not for purposes of trade or barter.
They may Justly be classed as educational.
They are really farmers institutes, and their
main purpose is to spread and develop new
and better ideals in the agricultural and horti-
cultural arts and to encourage and instruct in
the best methods of stock breeding. They are
none the less educational institutions because
of lack of formal discourses or OF any pre-
scribed course of oral instruction. The fairs
teach that better things have been done. There
is no surer method of appeal to the intelligence
of most men than by object-lessons. There is
no demonstration so convincing as the show
ing of actual accomplishments. Constantly
new and better methods are being discovered
in some branch of horticulture, and the coun.
ty fairs rapidly spread knowledge of the
progress that is made in the farming arts.
