Vanderbilt and her daughter were here
about a month ago they spent much time
in the company of Count Laszio Szechen-
VI and even visited his estate at Horpacs,
in Hungary. Count Szechenyi belongs to
an ancient Hungarian family. He is %
years OF age, court chamberlain and A
lieutenant in the reserves.
1t Is believed here that the counts en-
gagement to Miss Vanderbilt possibly was
settled during the visit to Horpacs.
Newport, Oct. 3.-Color was given
to The reported engagement on Tuesday
morning when Miss Vanderbilt went TO
the train alone and greeted in most
friendly way a young man of foreign ap-
pearance who. II was afterward learned
was Count Szechenyi. The count came TO
Newport on the private car Wayfarer, the
property OF Alfred G. Vanderbilt, and was
accompanied by his valet and brought
vast amount OF baggage.
As soon as he arrived he was taken
by Miss Vanderbilt TO the Breakers, the
palatial summer home OF her mother, and
he is now a guest there.
1t has also been learned In Newport
that the count was met at the steamer In
New York by Alfred and Reginald Van
derbilt, brothers OF Miss Vanderbilt and
they accompanied him from the steamer
dock TO the Grand Central station where
the Vanderbilt private car wayfarer was
placed at his disposal for his trip to New
port.
Why Mrs. Vanderbilt opened the Break
ers so late In the season for simply a
| short stay OF a few weeks was source
of considerable speculation 10 the major
ity OF the cottagers at Newport, but the
arrival of Count Szechenyi Tuesday seems
to explain the opening OF the villa
Tuesday afternoon Miss Vanderbilt had
her guest out for a drive about the cot
| tage colony and also took him as far as
the Vanderbilt farms In Portsmouth.
where she showed him the extensive land
holdings OF her two brothers

WHY We TALK ABOUT
han|ey's Peerless Ale

We have reason for telling you of its merit
We know just what good pure. whole
some beverage it is, and want everybody
else to know it, too.
1t is admitted by everyone that pure, we'll
matured ale, brewed Of first quality barley malt
is the most wholesome beverage ever prepared
by man.
Properly used, such ale is healthful,
strengthening tonic. 1t aids and promotes
the digestion and assimilation of food. Il
soothes the nerves, and prepares the body for
quiet, restful sleep.
Taken with meals and on retiring at night it
is most salutary.
We know these things. They have been
taught by physicians and scientific men and con-
frmed by many thousands of satisfied patrons.
Again, Hanley's Peerless Ale is home
brew The flavor is rich and nutty, yet abso-
lutely natural. 1t is very rich in malt extract,
ranking as high in this respect any imported
ale.
Haneys Peerless is an expensive ale to brew.
1t costs more than nne-tenths of the ales on
the market, yet the price to the consumer is the
same. 1t is especially adapted to bottling, and
isbotted by leading botters for family, hotel and
club trade under perfect conditions of purity
and cleanliness.
Weknowall these things, and that is why
we keep repeating them.
When you drink Hanleys Peerless Ale you
may be sure you are getting the best there is.
