RICHEST BACHELOR.
ALFRED DE RoTHSCH1LD HAs1N-
COME OF OVER SIS A MINUTE.
Wealthy Englishman Is Extremely
Popular-owns Private Circus
and Entertains Guests with
Unique Ideas.

London.-Alfred Charles de Roths-
child il one of those men who have
solved the problem of how to be happy,
though unmarried. Few people seem
to get more enjoyment out Of life THAI
he. Possessed of great fortune, his
entertainments are among the features
Of the London season, and those about
to begin at his town house in Seamore
place are arousing the most agreeable
anticipations. There is no more popu-
lar host in Mayfair.
Mr.. Alfred" as he is universally
called, is 81 years old; a dapper- little
man and the most exquisitely attired
member of the Rothschild clan. Like
all of them, he is an astute man of
business. He is also a distinguished
amateur musician, connoisseur in art
and dilletante in many things. With
AN income that works out little more
than S. a minute, he has relaxed none
of his practical interest in the great
financial operations for which the
house is famous. He is generally at
his Office by ten every morning, re-
naming there with an interval for
luncheon until the afternoon.
When not occupying his town resi-
dence or detained by some social en-
gagement, the financier travels every
evening in his own private railway
car to Halton house, his magnificent
country seat, near Tring. He is gen.
orally accompanied by his private
band, and one of his secretaries and a
couple of Wallets. The band, which Is

soothe his ear with Scotch reels. strath-
spoys and lays.
Lord Butte is a descendant of the H.
legitimate son of King Robert II. OF
Scotland. He is great coal baron,
owning $4,000 acres of land, the town
of Cardiff, the Isle of Butte, six country
seats, a London residence, large tracts
of land in Palestine, and a rental of
$780, year. He possesses II titles
and baronetcy.
The young marquis, while evincing
none of the intellectual endowments of
his father-the Lothian of Lord Bea-
consfelds famous story-is good lin
guist, speaking most modern languages,
even Russian, passably we'll. For the
rest, his tastes incline to sporting. He
is fond of fishing and is a good shot.
He has imported large numbers Of
birds for his preserves on the Isle of
Butte. He has travelled much by land
md sea, and once made cruise ~
Iceland. Like his father, he is de-
vout Roman Catholic. He cares little
for society Mount Stuart is his prin-
cipal seat in Scotland. It is an i'm
mense Gothic structure, standing on
the coast, five miles from Rothesay.
On June 10 of the present year, the
marquis will be "a years old. When
he succeeded to his fathers titles in
October, 1900, and on his coming of age
in June, 1902, there were prolonged fes-
tivities in both Scotland and Wales.
Miss Bellingham is the daughter of an
Irish baronet, Sir Henry Bellingham, of
the county 10th, and about the same age
as the marquis. She is petite brunette
of a vivacious temperament, with
charming manners. She has no great
accomplishments, no fads, and does not
go in for anything in particular. Like
her future lord she is a devout Roman
Catholic. Her only sister, Miss Ida
Bellingham, is a nun Of the Order Of
the Holy Child.

composed of first-class musicians, per-
forms every night after dinner, Mr..
Alfred invariably conducting and
pieces of his own composition often
being played.
Constitutionally delicate, with a
medical attendant always at hand, and
intensely nervous about his own
health, his amusements are always
more or less of a sedentary nature.
OF medium height and slight build, his
remarkable physical characteristics
are his conspicuously small feet, which
are always beautifully shod. A little
autocratic and apt to candidly evince
his disapproval Of anything that Of
tends his artistic aye, he has at times
created a small sensation by suddenly
demanding the removal of gaudy
bunch Of flowers from the buttonhOle

other minor official whom he has en-
countered in his frequent journeyings

-Halton> house is one of the most ex-
traordinary art museums in England.
It is built in the style of a French
chateau, and the rooms and broad cor
ridors are adorned with French, Dutch
and English paintings by the best
masters. AS for mers curiosities, o.
distinct from works of art, MIR. Alfred
has hundreds of them.
The most conspicuous of them is a
circus-the only private circus in
England. 1t is about hundred yards
in diameter, palinged of and sur
rounded by trees. In the winter it is
covered by an enormous tent. At one
side, empowered among the trees,
stands the royal box, rustic building
in keeping with the surroundings. In
side, however, are seats and settees
which are the finest products of modern
upholstery. Behind it is the dressing
room, which, from the outside, looks
like rustic cottage with it's thatched
roof. but within it contains all the up
to-date accessories of the ring, where

performing monkeys, ponies, dogs,
gazelles and trained tumblers and
acrobats. Another curiosity seen in
the chalet, which serves as green
room, is a marvellous clock, made like
a tree, which plays tunes, sets silver
birds flying through the branches and
4 rivulet of water flowing.
Halton is an ideal estate, situated
in an ideal spot, where money has
done its best to enhance the charms
of nature. At one end of the big
house is the winter garden, sur
mounted by . huge crystal dome that
sparkles and scintillates in the sun
light. In the midst of the palms and
marble statues is the ring for Mr..
Alfred's private band.
His beautiful town residence in Sea

private art collections in the world.

tons and illustrations of his art treas

An inquiry made by students OF
Ohio State university as to how many
cigarettes the ordinary smoker will
consume in a year has developed tho
fact that ten students, none of them
regarded as unusual fends, smoke 25,-
600 in the college year Of eight and a
half months. The investigators were
surprised at the total. Generally
speaking, each of the students smokes
q package Of ten cigarettes day, and
the total of the ten for full year OF
