London, July 30.-Lord Cassei-
thorpe to-day wed Miss Connie Burke,
the music hall sznger who has been APP
pearing at the Alhambra. The mar
riage was performed, by s-acial IL
cense, at st. Michaels church, Chester
square, London, the Rev. Canon Neck
lin, sub-dean of the Chapel Royal, off,
eating. The honeymoon will be spent
at the town house of the groom, in
York terrace. Lord Casselthorpe has
long been known as the blacklist sheep
Of the BH!tisb peerage, being called the
'Coster Peer on account of his uncon-
ventional language, his coarse man
ner and slovenly attire. Two years
ago he was warned off Newmarket
Heath and the British turf by the
Jockey Club. He is So years old. The
bride, like some other lights Of the
music hall who have become the con-
sorts of Britain's hereditary legisla-
,ors, has enjoyed considerable ante
nuptial celebrity among the gilded
-outh of the metropolis, and is said to
have been especially admired at one
lime by the next in line Of this illus
.rious family, the Hon. Cecil G! H.
Mauburn.
1.-THE Hon. Cecil G. H. Mauburn,
mentioned in the above cable dispatch,
has been rather well known In New
York society for two years past. His
engagement to the daughter Of Mon
ana mining magnate, not long de-
leased, has been persistently rumored."
Mauburn was pale under his freckles.
"Have they seen 1t YETI"
81 don't think So" she answered.
We might drop these papers over the
rail here"
That's rot, Mrs. Drelmer: It's sure
% be talked Of, and anyway don't
want to be sneaky, you know"
Percival came up from the cabin
With paper in his hand.
IL see you have 1t, too" he said,
smiling. "Burman just handed me
his"
Isn't 1t perfectly disreputable!" ex-
;laimed Mrs. Drelmer.
why? / only hope I'll have as
much interest in life by the time I'm
hat age"
But how will your sister take it,"
.sked Mauburn; "she may be afraid
his will knock my title on the head,
GU know"
"Oh, see," said Percival; II hadn't
thought Of that"
Only it can't" continued Mauburn.
Hang it all, that blasted old beggar
will be SO, you know, in a forth. ght
there simply can't be any issue Of the
marriage, and that-that blasted"
Better not try to describe her
while I'm by, you know" said Mrs.
Orelmer, alphabetically.
'Well-his wife-you know, will SIM
ply worry him into the grave a bit
sooner, fancy-that's all can possibly
-ome of it."
We'll, old man." said Percival, 81
don't pretend to know the workings of
NY sisters mind, but you ought to be
able to win a girl on your own merits
title or no title"
"Awfully good Of you, old chap. I'm
sure she does care for me-"
But OF course 1t will be only fair
20 sis to lay the matter before her just
as 1t Is"
ITO be sure!" Mauburn assented.
"And now. thank the Lord, we're IN
der way. Doesn't that breeze save your
life, though? Well eat here on deck"
The Viluca swung into mid-stream.
md was soon racing to the north with
l crowded Fall river boat.
But anyway" concluded Percival,
after he had explained Mauburn's po-
Sition to his sister, hes a good fellow,
and If you SUI, each other even the I'M
expected wouldn't make any differ
ence."
"Of course not" she assented, "the
rank Is but the guineas stamp know
but | wasn't meaning to be married
or quite time yet, anyway-it's such
Jun just being engaged"
"A mint julep?" Mauburn was in
quiring of one who had proposed it.
Does it have whisky in it?"
ut does" replied Percival, overhear-
ing the question; whisky may be said
to peryade, even to infest 1t. Try five
or six, old man; that many make a
great one-night trouble cure. And |
can't have anyone with troubles on
this Cunarder-not for the next 80
lays. I need cheerfulness and rest for
4 long time after this day in town.
All! Gen. Hemingway says that din
ner is served; let's be at 1t before the
things get all hot!"
