NEW CITY DIRECTORY.

The new city directory for 1905 is
being delivered to subscribers, and
Manager Cooper is to be congratulated
on having issued such comprehensive
work. BY using the low multiple of
IN, the population of the city, includ'
ing suburbs, is estimated at 90,967,
which, we believe, is about correct.
The city proper has about 10000 peo-
pie. The work is indexed and is thor
ough containing in addition to the
names and addresses, information con-
corning societies, associations, clubs
and corporations that is invaluable.
Business houses of all kinds are col
lected together and the seeker after in
formation has but to turn the pages Of
the volume to find it. A comprehen
sive and compact map of the city is
enclosed in the front part of the book
and is a valuable adjunct to the street
directory portion of the work.
The advertising patronage bestowed
upon the publishers has been very gen.
erous, and has been so arranged as to
not destroy the symmetry of the pub
LEGATION nor to detract from the con-
venience of the subscriber. 1t is the
best work of the kind ever issued in
the west.

Ruled the TenderIoin.

She kept this UP for five or six years
in New York, reigning supreme in the
Tenderloin, and many is the anxious
moments she caused the mothers of New
York's "eIigible" young men. When she
returned TO the stage after a long time,
she reached the crowning point Of her
career by being given the part Of Ruth"
In "A Temperance Town"
Among her admirers at this time was
Stewart NJ Brice, son of former Sena-
tor Calvin NJ. Brice. So much were they
seen together that the young man finally
denied the rumor that they were engag-
ed. He wined her and dined her, and all
the world, at least all Of their world,
knew how completely she held him in

This. however, had no effect on Miss
Robinson.
1t has often been asked how she SO

as she was soon to do London and on the

Swell London Home.

Her last few years have been spent in
London. where she lived in a house de-
scribed as a mansion. 1t is II Norfolk
street, a short distance from Park lane
There she entertained in a fashion which
recalled the old days in New York,
when she was always the honored guest
and not the host.
Actors, actresses. men about town. and
the titled few who lavish money and
;ewelry on their favorites freQuented her
home. She held levees; not just the
same as are seen in the Queens draw
ing-rGon. but as exclusive in their way.
This home has been described at
length in the papers of America and
London. 1t was pictured to adorn the
tale of the rise of Il young girl from
Minnea polls who came to New York and
finally ruled the better side of the Ter
derloin. That, with her carriages. her
horses, her magnificent clothes, all made
by the besc tailors in Paris, gave Anna
position envied by all her friends and
omulators.
Although for the past few months she
had been seen good deal with the
Earl of RossIyn, the announcement of
the marriage on the Goth of last month
came as a surprise. The couple had been
at Monte Carlo for week. and there
they made a large sum of money at the

tuous type of woman, with plenty of

figure that carries well the pretty face
above it, These are the things thar
have conquered and brought to her feet
the millionaircs of America and the
nohles of the Old World.
Yearning. like Alexander the Great
for new fields to conquer. she went
abroad about five years ago. Victorious
by her beauty and her American dash
and good fellowship, she won the great
admiration Of the Duke of Manchester
as soon as she landed on English soil.
The affair became the talk of the noble
circles. If her Irritation with young
BrIce had aroused comment In this
country. her power over Manchester
provoked a storm of gossip.
This continued for a good while, Miss
Robinson meanwhile enjoying the situa-

French cynic has said that a woman. in
order to be witty. must be beautiful.
Anna Robinson followed his saying. But
she was more.
in addition to her beauty, she was a
good fellow" and ready for fun at anv
hour OF the day or night. She had no
more rear OF an unconventional escapade
than her men friends had, and she knew

highest flyers. Then. too, she had the
ART or managing men reduced to a
science, and she used her science for all
1t was worth.
But her beauty was of no ordinary
type and as 1t was then so is 1t now, for
the countess Of Rosslyn is as pretty
today as she was ten years ago. Her
cohel1ness IS not of the intellectual or
ger, and she lays claim to no especial
intellectually. Why should she. indeed ?
She has never needed 1t.

Captured by Beers.

Later Earl Rosslyn went to South Az
rica as a war correspondent. He also
held q commission as second lieutenant
in the British army. He was taken pris-
oner by the Beers, but was later re-
leased and on his return to England fig
ured in an exciting episode in which
Winston Churchill took a leading part
1t seems that Earl RoSslyn shortly at
ter landing IN England was taken Sc
verely to task by Mr.. Churchill for re-
Elections he made on the bravery OF GER
tain officers of the British army. Lord
Rosslyn reiterated his assertion and Mr..
Churchill defended the officers in a pub
lie letter to one Of the leading London
dailies.
The affair was assuming serious pro-
portions and becoming something akin
TO an army scandal when Lord RosSlyn
suddenly apolooized for his allegations
and the incident closed It was broadly
limited at the time that Lord Rosslyn's
final action was brought about by pres

In English Mobility.

Anna Robinson, through her marriage
with Lord Rosslyn, becomes member
of a family famous in England and on
the Continent for its beauty and promi-
nence in society. The Butterfly Earl"
as Rosslyn has been dubbed, is a brother
of the beautiful Duchess of Sutherland
and the Countess of Warwick, whose
reign as d society beauty was such that
the jealousy of the present Queen was
aroused by the attentions paid by the
King. then the Prince of Wales.
The Countess of WeStmoTeland. Lady
Angela Forbes, and Lady Algomon Cor
don LennoX, who was recently IN TINS
country, are also sisters. Tne mother
OF this bevy of beautiful women was
Blanche, Lady Rosslyn. who not many
years ago went through the bankruptcy
court, having liabilities approXlrnatihS
half a million.
In speaking of her experiences In Lon
don and on the Continent, Miss Rooln-
son says that she met most OF the
crowned heads of Europe, until she was
almost tired of grand dukes and earls
and princes. She says she THINKS hlnS

Americans. They say We tare brighter
than others So, as she is very bright
and attractive woman, it is evident that
she must have enjoyed herself not
little.
Miss Robinson has no regrets for the
stage. She never looked upon 1t as a
career. She despises hard work Ad-
miration luxury, and display are more
to her liking, and when woman can
lrae a King at her chariot wheels what
more is there in life for her?
Although Anna seems not to have
cared deeply for King Leopold. she
sueaks fatteriussly of Tim and others Of
royalty she has met.
II has been rumored that the Earl OF
Resslyn and his young wife are con-
telnplating producing a new play in Lon
