Earl Of Essex Chosen Member
Of London County Council.
URGED ON BY AMERICAN WIFE
Fair Countess Brought Him Little Money
but Plenty of Brains and Energy.

LONDON. Feb. 4.-If a United States
Senator should seek election TO a Board
Of Aldermen in any American city It
would be thought that he had fallen
low in the political world. But such
matters are judged by a different
standard here. When peer seeks cleo
ton TO the London County Council-the
central governing body of this huge
merropolis-it is regarded as evidence
Of q commendable desire on his part
to play a useful role in public life.
No less an authority than Lord Rose
berry. who was chairman Of the first
London County Council declared that
member of that democratic body had
far greater opportunities of rendering
good service TO the community than a
member Of the House Of Lords. There
fore when the Right Honorable George
Devereux de We're Capell. Earl Of Es-
sex, announced his intention of run
ming for the London County Council as
representative Of the borough of
EIarylebone it was regarded as proof Of
his lordship's desire TO accomplish
something that should be accounted as
good work in a life which heretofore
has been more conspicuous for private
extravagance than for public service.
So his friends warmly congratulated
him on his election.
There is no doubt that this salutary
change in Lord Essex has been brought
about by the influence of his wife. who
was formerly Miss Adela Grant, the
daughter of Beach Grant of New York.
u is said that the title of Countess Of
Essex has been borne invariably by a
beautiful woman. a statement that is
sbundantly substantiated by the an
oient family portraits that adorn the
halls Of the family seat at Cassiobury,
in Hertfordshire. .assr-z es's'f
FAMED FOR HER BEAUTY.
The American Lady Essex will COM
pare favorably with any of her pre-
decessOrs Of the noble house At the
coronation of King Edward she at
tracted great attention as one of the
handsomest women In the stately
throng that filled Westminster Abbey.
The beauty of her classic features is
enhanced by what has been described
as a magnolia tinted" complexion.
She has soft eyes. dark hair. a tall
figure and a singularly graceful car
riage. She stands at the head Of that
aristocratic group which was playfully
christened by society the Lovely
Five" the other four being Lady War
wick. Lady Lytton. Lady Westmore-
land and the Duchess of Sutherland.
1t cannot be said with entire truth
OF Lady Essex that her face is her
fortune" but as she once declared,
with characteristic frankness, II am
not an American heiress," it may be
assumed that she did not bring her
husband that inexhaustible dowry of
dollars which is popuIarly supposed
to be the price transatlantic brides
invariably pay for English titles. But
in addition TO beauty, which more
than satisfied the demands Of the
family traditions Of his house. she
brought him brains. energy and en-
terprise.

One day during the fall of 1888 a let

days a conspicuously wealthy one The
Earl inherited $1,000 acres and tastes
which demanded more money to graf
ify than his rent roll furnished. Asa
young man the finishing touches to
his education were obtained in that
swellest OF all regiments, the Guards,
whose officers are more distinguished
for going the pace" than for devotion
to those studies which in this age of
scientific warfare are essential to sue
cess in the profession of arms.
The lesson learned in that 1costly
school he has not ceased paying for
yet. OF late years there have been
many evidences that his financial con-
dition was fast approaching hard
pan," coupled with rumors that the
Countess was sorely grieved at his
failure to put a curb on his extrava-
gance and settle down to taking life
seriously Only a few months ago it
was recorded that he had sold the
richest of the three church livings to
which he has the right of appointing
an incumbent. And now, because of
his need of ready cash, it is reported
that he taken steps to dispose of his
Irish property to his tenantry.
Meanwhile Lady Essex has been set
ting him an example of beneficent ac-
tivity which has led many to think that
she is by long odds his better half
Some time ago she established a model
laundry in one of London's suburbs 1t
was run on business lines, but it was
relieved from the charge of being. a
purely money-making speculation by
the fact that it was preceded by a
painstaking personal investigation of
sanitary conditions in London laundries
which was largely instrumental in in
ducing the London County Council to
adopt measures for their reformation.
In other directions she has shown keen
practical interest in the condition of
London's toiling legions.
HIS LARGE MAJORITY.
In view of the promise he now gives
of turning over new leaf and devoting
himself to a career of usefulness. his
friends are agreed that it is a good
thing that his wife did not bring him
the dowry of millionaire.s
daughter. With plenty of money to
spend he would have escaped the
wholesome check imposed by the need
of retrenchment
It was generally expected that the
Earl of Essex would receive a big ma
jority from the Marylebone constitu-
ency, for the borough has shown itself
peculiarly partial to aristoeratic can
didates. one of its districts being al
ready represented on the County Coun-
ell by Lord Ludlow. A few DAYS before
the date assigned for the polling an
other candidate appeared in the person
of 7. Wheeler, the proprietor of
small coffee-house. There could hardly
be better vindication of England's
claim to be democratic country than
the spectacle afforded of a "belted
Earl competing for votes with the
humble purveyor of cheap refresh
ments. The nobleman won by large
majority, largely due to the fact that
his opponent was so tardy in entering
the contest against him.
The constitution of the London Coun-
ty Council is democratic enough to
