The only thing Rosebery really has
to fight for was his wife-perhaps
that's the reason he loved her SO
dearly in spite Of the many millions
she brought to him. It is a pretty
story how they met.
One day their carriages coIlided.
The young Earl leaped out Of his Just
in time to catch Hannah Rothsehild
as she vas falling out of hers. She
was stunned by the shock, and he car
ried her in his arms into a nearby
house. where she was restored to
consciousness. OF course, the two
fell in love then and there, and the
Earl sought for an introduction. He
got it-from whom? From his great
political antagonist and warm per
sonal friend. Disraeli, better known
now as the, Earl of Beaconsfeld. the
Tory Prime Minister.
But Hannah was a Jewess and Rose
berry a Gentle. Her father fercely
opposed the young peoples aspira-
tons. Let Hannah marry among
her own people,. ne growled. But
the young mans constancy and Bea-
consieldis i~ntercession finally won
the day.
So long as Hannah lived Rosebery
was happy. He was fond Of his
children, too; and when his second
daughter. now Lady Crewe. was a
child he used to carry her about for
hours at a time.

The Fairmont West Virginian. (Fairmont, W. Va.) 1904-1914, 1905-07-27

1t was one of the disappolntments
of Rosebery's life that he became a
peer too young. Stepping into the
title of Earl at the age of 81 he lost
the chance of trying his mettle in the
House of Commons. There was the
House Of Lords, it is true, but there is
neither glory nor fun % be gained in
that dignifed and sleepy body. Rose
berry keenly missed smoke OF battle
in the popular House. 1t would have
delighted his soul to fight his way
up in the Commons as his great
predecessor did. Rosebery was un.
lucky enough to be too blamed lucky.
