NEWEST AMERICAN COUNTESS.
Home Coming of the Earl and coun-
tess of Suffolk.

The Earl of Suffolk and his Ameri-
can bride, who is a sister of Lady
Curzon, arrived at Malmesbury yes
terday en- route for Charlton Park,
and were accorded a splendid recep-
ton. The town was decorated in
honor of the occasion, and notices
expressive of welcome and good
wishes abounded everywhere.
The Earl and his bride were met by
Mr.. Bates, the steward, and others.
Crowds thronged the route when the
Earl and Countess, preceded by the
town band, started for the market
cross, where upon a large platform,
the Mayor and corporation and Off
Gals of the town had assembled.
The Mayor, in presenting massive
silver salver and a handsome address
on behalf of the town, offered hearty
congratulations, and expressed the
hope that the intimate and honorable
associations between the old borough
and the House of Suffolk, which had
existed for so many generations,
would still continue.
Lord Suffolk replied that nothing
could prove more conclusively the
very great interest for the welfare
and haapiness of his house. which
Malmesbury always had taken, than
the magnificent reception accorded to
Lady Suffolk and himself that day
Her ladyshir would take a very lively
interest in local affairs. and become
as devoted to Malmesbury, its inhabi-
tants, and associations as he and his
family had always been.

PROPERTY OWNERS UP IN ARMS
Southwest ImprOvers Make strong
Protest Against Movins shacks
Across Town.

The threatened removal OF undesirable
houses from the neighborhood of Nine
teenth and Pierce streets to Twenty-second
street and Poppleton avenue was the bomb
which stirred things in the camp OF the
Southwest Improvement club last night.
Men who live near Twenty-seoond and
Poppleton protested against the introduce
ton into the neighborhood Of what they
called ''shacks," and their remarks met
with the sympathy OF the entire club. A
lengthy discussion ensued as to the best
means TO pursue to prevent the removal Of
the buildings. One member suggested that
Councilman Dyball would be the proper
person to look after the matter. Mr.. Dy-
ball rose and informed the club that in hts
opinion no legal way exists to prevent a
man from moving his own building to his
own lot, wherever that lot is situated. He
said II the buildings prove to be in q dilapi-
dated condition 1t might be within the
power Of Building Inspector Withheld to
withhold the permit for removal. Resolu-
tons were passed embodying the senti-
ments of the club in the matter and pro-
viding for a committee to wait on Mr..
Withheld. and, IL necessary. to take the
matter before the council. The committee
was appointed to consist OF s. A. Corneer,
Fred Hoye and A. Waggoner.
During the discussion 1t was remarked
that three houses have been moved into
the vicinity this summer which are not At
to live in. The question was asked why the
building inspector does not pull such
"shaeks' to pieces before they are moved.
II was told" said President schamel.
that Mr.. Withheld recently said he would
pull these rattletrap houses down II he had
any one to stand behind him, but that UNI
der the new charter he had no power to
do such things"
''Wen, II he feels that way about IT,
responded Councilman Dyball. ut will be

much as the offending sandwich Jennie

woman, ran for an officer. and Mike was

they had never seen Murphy before and
