London, Sept 29.-Royalty like or /
dinarv humanity has its burdens of
poor relations and at present King
Edward Is wasting lot of brain force
In trying to find lucrative employment
compatible with their dignity for
these poor relations, the three young
Tecks. These three young princes
form rather a heavy burden upon the
royal exchequer and the announce
ment is soon TO be expected that they
will be pitchorked into positions for
which they have no qualifications. In
this manner. the Tecks will draw
from the public purse and hot from
the private purse Of His Majesty.
The late Duke Of Teck did mighty
fine stroke of business when he mar
ried Princess Mary Of Cambridge. Ex-
actly how much money this family
has drawn from the imperial money
bags will never be known. but the
amount Is tremendous. The late
queen was always being called upon
to provide money for the late duke or
his children and as far as the children
are concerned the present King has
followed in his mothers footsteps
The Princes of Teck are not bad
fellows. they are simply out of cog
with things One OF them is In the ar
my and stationed at Hampton court.
owing to a shortage Of servants he
was obliged to act as his own hostler
and turned to the work of grooming
his horses with democratic willing
ness
An attempt was made n short time
ago to make another brother mem
ber Of the stock exchange, but the
king put his foot down hard on this
scheme as being subservient of royal
dignity and the plan fell through.
The third brother has been promi-
nent this summer at Hamburg and at
other watering places whore he has
been paying attention to a number A(
beautiful American women.
