an American daughter OF Motley, the
historian. and his SON. Lewis Harcourt
has followed the same example, per
haps presuming that the help his
father obtained from his American
wife augured well for what would
come to him.
There are six American countesses in
the peerage. The Earl Of Craven, who
owns 10000 acres and a priceless col
lection OF pictures, married Miss Brad
ley Martin. The Countess of Egmont
is southern lady, the daughter of
Warwick Howell, of South Carolina.
The Earl of Essex, who served with
the yeomanry in South Africa, has as
his second wife a New York lady, the
daughter Of Beach Grant. The Coun-
tess of Oxford is also a native Of New
York, as is the Countess of Tanker
Vile. The Countess of Suffolk Is the
late Lady Curzon's sister and her hus'
band was one of Lord Curzon's abide
camps during his vice royalty in India.
Lake Cooke, who before her mar
rlage was Miss Tennessee Clafiln, of
New York, is one of that group Of
English women who are moving heaven
and earth in the cause of suffrage for
their sex. She is coming to the United
States late this month to repeat in this
country the work she has done in
England which consists In organizing
social and political clubs for women.
1t would be quite easy to add many
other more or less conspicuous names
to this list, but it may be noted as an
Interesting fact that a curiously large
number of journalists holding import
ant positions on London newspapers
are married to American ladies'.
In no case have these women from
the United States failed to adapt them
selves quickly to whatever sphere hap
fpened to be theirs. II it was politics
they quickly sent their husbands to the
fore; If society, they gave superb en-
tertainments, sumptuous, but marked
by good taste; If it was business. they
showed as much knowledge of how to

Ambulance Drills in England.

Fritz Morris writes entertalningly in
The Technical World Magazine of the
Inter-Railway Ambulance competitions,
which take the place of football and
other bone-breaking games among the
organized railroad employees of Great
Britain. All such employees are care
fully trained in the proper methods of
handling people injured in accidents
and, in the annual contests, teams of
the most expert, representing various
lines, meet to decide which can handle
a given number OF cases in the shortest
time and in the most skillful manner.
Railway ambulance men take the
keenest interest In this competition. In
1905, twenty-four railway companies
were represented by teams in the con
test. Preliminary heats are held on
three successive days-one in the prov
Inces, and two in London-to decide the
six best teams, who again compete in
the "Final."

great social qualities that would make
her an admirable helpmeet for the
Duke of Manchester, but she has car
ried the fortunes of that young Eng
lishman forward at a bound.
Similarly Miss May Goeiet has been
recognized as a leading factor in Eng
Iish social life.
In addition to these women Lily,
Duchess of Marlborough, who after
ward married Lord William Beresford,
was the daughter of Commodore Price,
of Troy, N. Y, and Consuelo, Dowager
Duchess of Manchester, is a native Of
Louisiana.
Among other politicians who have
American wives are Hon. Frederick
Guest. son of Lord Wimborne. Lady
Herbert, widow of Sir Michael Her
bert the British ambassador at Wash
ington, is an American lady, as are the
wife of Sir Henry Howard, the British
minister at The Hague, and the widow
of the late Sir Clinton Dawkins. the
famous fnancier.
Every woman In this notable galaxy
is esteemed as having the insight into
public life and the courage Of action
that lifts her from being mere shadow
OF her husband into a factor In every
big movement
In England there are far greater OPP
portunities politically for the gentler
sex than in America. 1t Is recognized
that she has a right to be heard on the
hustIngs and at every election for Par
lament she takes a prominent part.
Half a dozen American women be-
sides Lady CurzOn have performed no
table feats In politics. The most dis
tingulshed Of these Is perhaps Mrs.
Joseph Chamberlain, who before her
marriage in 1888 was Miss Mary Endl-
colt. Of Washington. All through the
stormy public life Of her famous lingo
husband Mrs. Chamberlain has been
stanchly at his back and to the credit
Of "JOe" It must be said that he makes
no secret Of his indebtedness to her.
The lovely Miss Jerome, Of New
York, nrst became the wife OF Lord

Leaders in Art, Social Life and Phil
RnthPOpic Work.
During the last decade the daugh-
ters of Uncle Sam have taken such a
conspicuous place in London life that
they have come to be accepted as
leaders. In art, social life, literary
work, philanthroplc movements and
even in those important political func-
lions with which the wife of a British
peer or politician must concern herself
they have been foremost.
Every notice and comment on the
death of the late Lady Curzon con-
tanned the statement that great part
Of the extraordinary political success
Of her husband resulted from her tact
and ability.
Similarly other American women in
london have exhibited the ability to
extend intelligent aid.
Three Of the most select of England's
dukes depend largely on American
wives to advance their interests at
court and socially. The duchess Of
Marlborough was Miss Consuelo Van
derbilt. She has filed her place with
skill and judgment and is an especial
favorite of Englands King. The Van
derbllt millions have been pressed into
service to aid the cause of her hus-
band, but they have been expended
judiclously.
Lady Bagot, whose husband was a
lord in waiting under the last govern
ment; Lady Deerhurst, whose husband
is the eldest son of the Earl of Coven-
try Lady Donoughmore, whose hus-
band held office under Mr.. Balfour and
who is credited with being one of the
cleverest men in the House of Lords
