Interested
MRS. CHAMBERLAIN PRESENT
Special Gable to The Herald.

Special Gable to The Herald.
LONDON, June 17-Not for the first
time the duchess Of Marlborough en-
tertained royalty at Sunderland house.
1t was the meeting of the Colonial
Nursing association, in which both the
duke and duchess take the warmest
interest, and the royal president, Prin-
cess Henry of Battenburg, attended It,
The duke and the duchess, the latter
looking quite girlishly young in a
charming gown Of black and white
striped silk, with touches of mauve
and black and a picture hat, were
there to receive Princess Henry.
The duke, after seeing to the seating
of his royal and other guests, had to
hurry off to keep other engagements,
but there were illusions in more than
one speech to the interest in the
work of the association and to his fu-
ture as a politician to be reckoned
with.
The duchess was seated beside her
royal guest and proved quite equal to
of thanks for the loan of her beauti-
full house, and In her sweet clear voice
and simple, we'll chosen words ex-
pressed her pleasure at receiving the
mothers and friends Of the association
and her hope that it would benefit by
the meeting.
Lady Balfour of Burleigh aroused
some, amusement by her practical sug-
gestion that those present might widen
the interest in the associations work
by buttonholing their next door
neighbors at dinner advising that the
attack should be made at a not too
early nor yet too late stage of the
dinner.
Mrs. Joseph Chamberlain has been
an invaluable friend and member of
the executive committee Of the asso-
citation since its start, for which her
husband was largely responsible.
Though not speaker at the meeting,
she was present, dressed in mourning
for her stepdaughter and for Mr..
Chamberlain's schoolboy nephew, who
was recently drowned.
The duke of Westminster madN ap-
preciative references to Mrs. Chamber
lain's work and to the value of her
frank criticism on the executive COM
mittee.
The long gallery in which the meet
ing was held has as yet its roof only
roughly plastered, and walls that ap-
parently are ready beneath their hol-
land coverings for the fresco painters
brush.

FAMOUS LIBRARY AT VENICE
MOVED TO SUITABLE HOME
Historic Collection Founded by Pc
trach Finds Repository In the
Zecca Palace

Special Cable to The Herald
LONDON, June 17.-After a delay of
many years one Of the most famous
libraries in the world has been re-
moved from situation where 1t prac-
tically was useless and a source Of
perpetual danger, to one where stu
dents will be able to utilize 1t to the
best advantage.
The library in question is the historic
Marciana collection at Venice, which
was founded by Petrarch, and which
since the time of Napoleon 1 has been
housed in the doge's palace. The new
repository Of the library, which con-
sists of over 100000 volumes, is the
Palazzo della Zecca, or Palace of the
Mint, close to the square of st. Mark
Some time before his death in 1874
Petrarch determined to bequeath his
books to Venice, "and thereby found
a great and famous library, like those
of olden times" The poets wishes
however, were not respected fully, his
books being dispersed and only few
coming to the city on the Adriatic. To
these, however, was added in 1853 the
great collection presented to the re-
public by Cardinal Bessarion. The
library of this learned ecclesiastic
numbered over thousand Greek and
Latin codexes and had been gotten
together at cost of over 10000 golden
ducats, or 100000
Thus augmented, the Venetian gov
ernment at once decided that the Mar
ciana library should have worthy
home and commissioned Jacopo Sanso-
vino to build small palace for Its re-
ception. This was finished in 1868, and
afterward ornamented with paintings
by Veranese and Tintoretto and with
stucco work by Vittoria. Here the
library was installed and it increased
hardly at all until the eighteenth CEN
tury, when legacies from the houses
Of Contarini and Recanati added
greatly to its volume

RADIUM THE LATEST
HYDROPHOBIA CURE
italian Professor Gives the Results
of Experiments on
Rabbits

Special Gable to The Herald.
MILAN, June 1S.-In memoranda
communicated to the Academy Of
Sciences of Bologna Prof. Tizzoni and
Sig. Bongiovanni, a student, publish
the results of experiments by which
Tizzoni maintains that he succeeded in
curing hydrophobia by the influence of
radium.
He says that after injecting into rab-
bits the most violent hydrophobia virus
existing he subjected them periodically
for several days to the influence of
radium. He says all the rabbits thus
treated were cured, while others like
wise inoculated, but not subjected to
the cure, died of hydrophobia.
The treatment is efficacious even in
cases of developed hadrophobia. Tiz-
zoni, who proposes to experiment on
men afflicted with hydrophobia, has left
for Rome in order to communicate with
scientific men. Tizzoni is the discoverer
of the serum against tetanus.

GRAND DUKES MEMBERS
OF "SYBARlTE'S CIRCLE"
PALACE WHERE PLATES ARE
STUDDED WITH GEMS
No Male Outsider Permitted Within
Clubs WaIls--AlI Servants Except
the Chef Are Women--Journallst
Succeeds In Entering

Special Cable to The Herald.
MOSCOW, June t7-According to a
Moscow newspaper, cause celebre will
soon come before the Russian courts
in connection with the "sybarite's Cir
cle," of Kharakoff, one Of the most re-
markable clubs in the world.
The "sybarite's Circle" had but
twenty members, among them being
the Grand Dukes Cyril and Boris. The
members, who were also proprietors,
spent $4,000 in building their club
house, which is a miniature palace of
white marble.
The subscription was 500 per an
mum, and $250O per year of the total
revenue went to a chef, boasting the
French name of Cover.
For some years much talk has been
created by one of the regulations of
the club, which provided that all the
servants with the exception of the
chef, M. Cover, should be members
of the fair sex, and that while "Syb-
arites" might invite their women
friends to dinner or supper, no male
outsider might, under any circum-
stances, pay a visit to the club.
NJ Koznikoff, we'll known Journal
ist on the staff of the Viedomosti, by
some means succeeded a few months
ago in obtaining admission to the
"Sybarite's Circle" IT is said that he
made himself to represent a compara-
lively little known member, who was
absent in st. Petersburg.
Later M. Koznikoff, in the columns
of the Viedomosti, gave a highly COL
ored, sensational account of the gem
studded plates, silken table napkins.
bath towels, sheets, ETC., that he had
seen during his visit to the most re-
markable club house in the world.

AMERICAN CLOTHING
HOUSE FOR LONDON
United States Syndicate Makes Appli-
cation for Use of Store


Site
Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, June 17.-An official of the
London county council is authority for
the statement that large American
clothing business is likely TO be estab-
lished in London shortly. Chapman c.
Hall of New York and Walter B. Ros-
coe Of Pittsburg are at present here
representing New York syndicate
with a view of finding eligible premises
where an American house for the sale
of mems, women's and children's cloth
ing can be established.
Three years ago the same syndicate
tried to get site in the new thorough
fare that is being constructed from
Holborn to the Strand, but now, as
then, they are opposed to the short
lease-eighty-e eight years-which the
county council Is willing to grant. The
syndicate has a capital Of $1,000,000, and
in the event of being unable to come
to any terms with the county council
will seek a site in Kensington, where
Whiteley's, Herrod's, and other big
London department stores are located.
1t is understood that 1t is the syndi-
Gates intention to deal exclusively in
American manufactured goods, and to
employ American help as largely as
possible. 1t is thought that there Is
big field for such business in view Of
the rapid increase of American resi-
dents in London.
