SCOTCH AR|STOCRAT ID WE'D ACTRESS
 SAYS RUM0R
ANNOUNCEMENT OF AUGUST BEL MONT'S ENGAGEMENT WILL
 CAUSE NO SURPRISE
WILL MARRY ELN0R ROBSON
SHORT AND INTERESTING HIS TORY OF CAREER OF MIL
 LIONAIRE'S FIANCEE

NEW YORK, Juno 29.-The report from London that Eleanor Robson, the actress, is to marry August Belmont has caused no surprise among the friends of the two in this city. A strong friendship has been known to exist between Miss Robson and MT. Belmont for some time. This spring, before Miss Robson s departure for Europe, they were to be seen together almost daily, and Miss Robson was ire. quently guest at the Belmont coun- try place. Her love for horses is said to have been tho common bond between the couple since they first met five years ago.
 No man in New York is better known than August Belmont. He is first of all an aristocrat. It is claimed that the blood of the canny Scotch warrior Will, liam Wallace flows in his veins But the man who can claim Oliver Hazard Perry, hero of the battle of Lake Erie, as an ancestor, is not required to go back to Wallace for fighting blood.
 As for his paternal ancestors from the banks of the Rhone, their lives seem to have flowed in more peaceful and profitable, if scarcely less honorable channels. August Belmont, father of the present fnancier, came to America from Austria in lS44 to represent his native Austria as consul general in New York. Vn cided to adopt it as his home. After ward be represented the United States at The Hague, but finally returned to New York, to his bank and his fast horses, for even the father of August Belmont had a taste for the sport of kings.
 The younger August Belmont was born in this city in 1853, and is there fore almost twice the age of the young woman he is reported engaged 10 mar ". He decided to follow in his father s footsteps, and in 1875, year after his graduation from Harvard, he had taken desk in his fathers banking house. For fifteen years young August developed along the lines of the young banker, joining clubs, eultivating ath- letics, getting acquainted with society, to which he had free entree-becoming more and more interested in stable and kennels. He became judge of a good horse, of a fleet or game hound, and an accomplished yachtsman and polo player. Then the elder Belmont died, and August Belmont, Jr., took up the business of his father-became head of the banking house of August Belmont & Co.,, the American represen- tatives of the great house of Rithschild.
 For years August Belmont pursued the careful way of the conservative banker, husbanding his millions by the methods of the bankers, making them grow and breed and grow again. But

GETTING TOGE THEIR EXCURSION ID
 SEATTLE
CALIFORNIA PROMOTION COM MITTEE RUNS REMARKABLE ,
 TRAIN FROM FRISCO

One hundred Californians, under the committee and other organizations of the state, left San Francisco Saturday evening" June 18th, for visit to the Alaska Yukon Pacific exposition on the most elaborately equipped train that ever travelled over any railroad. The eleven coaches and dynamo ear were equipped with telephones and wireless telegraph, and had all the conveniences of modern social club.
 The object of the visit was to cement closer the bonds of ,riendship between the states on the Pacific slope, and dur ing the entire time of the trip the Cal ifornians were boosting" the expo sition, and working for closer conner cial and political relations between all the seven states of the slope.
 This visit fully demonstrated the desirability of close union of all the Pacific slope states, which would be of great advantage to the whole district. The exposition was found to be of vast educational benefit, as it was an epi- tome of the industrial development of the empire west of the Rockies, and those who made the trip are strong in their desire to have every person in Idaho, Nevada, Utah, Oregon, Califor- mia and Arizona, join with the people of Washington in making the fair the success it deserves to be.
 The exposition is of highest charac- ter in its display of the products of soil and factory, and of the arts and sci enccs, and it is well worthy of visit from that standpoint alone. The Cali fornia Promotion committed. and all those who went with it to the expo sition strongly urges upon all who are interested in the development of the coast region to visit the exposition, thus lending their moral and financial support to the success of the effort to place the Pacific slope properly before the eyes of the world.

MARY AND I AT THE GAME

Mary and l to the baseball game Went on a summer s day Now Mary's a queen in all but namei Mary is bright and gay. Fate has denied to her sires fame, And small is her family tree, Granted all that, but just the same, She's the best in the world to me. For m only drudge in the hives of
 men, And my wages are fifteen per; But l envy no lord of creation when I can go to the games with her. In sunshine or sorrow, when grieving
 or gay, I care not what comes, l aver; Ambition may languish, provided al
 way I may go to the ball games with her Up in the toppermost part of the stand Where no curious eye discovers, Right within reach of the blare of the
 band, Is perfect retreat for lovers. There my Mary and ou summer $
 day, Just couple of comrades in clover, Kept unfailing watch on each intricate
 play. As the man in the box "put 'em over. " In part of the game when the playing
 was slow, Then my arm sought her waist quite un-
 yielding; In her cheeks was the red of shy mod esty's glow As she said, Don't you think il 's
 poor 'feel-ding!' Then I said to the lady, Excuses are
 lame, ''Do not thinl; | am guilty of rantipg, "When l say that in all the tense
 course of the game "I have not seen curve so enchant-
 ing" With masculine duncss, repented in. stead of perceiving her show of mock terror, As she airily said, with lit of her
 head, "'I fear you have made q grave 'er-
 ror'." My encompassing arm l removed in a
 trice, For I nightly feared her displeasurc; But yet,' I replied, "it's q great
 sacrifice To abandon a loverlike measure. v Said l then to Mary, q meant no of
 fense, But why waste we the time in palaver All the games in the world are of DO
 consequence If 1 we scored but one point in your
 favor" And then, quite relenting, said Mary,
 "You stupid,'' While sparkled her eyes with shy laugh
 ter, ''You have sure made a hit; may little Dan Cupid Umpire our playing hereafter" The afternoon waned, and the game it
 was won, By whom l do not now remember; Ere the people had started to make
 their "home run" We had promised to wed in December. And then OCT that dear old baseball
 field The shadows began to roam, And hand in hand with betrothal sealed, My Mary and l I'"stole home.

Contest Editor: Yes, you can
live in Tacoma on SIS week,
and live well, but you have to be
careful.
Unless in case of sickness, we
never go in debt. AS I pay cash,
do not confine myself to any one
place, but find, as a rule, one can
do better at the public market.
l also buy as far as possible by
the quantity-that is, a 81 worth
of sugar, sack of potatoes, etc.
We aim to put by little each
month in the bank. Never 60 to
bed hungry, and always well
dressed. Have been here not quite
year, and have paid 81 week
for furnished rooms. Have al
ways found ready money to pay
for the Times. My husband is
one who works every day, always
gives me his check, allows me to
buy and pay all bills, freely ad-
hitting I can make 81 go farther
than he can IS.
This is my first experience liv-
ing on SIS a week. Never had to
pay house rent before, and we
find everything much higher than
in the East. Still we live and
save money on SIS a week.

Saving the NickeIs.

Contest Editor: We have
lived on SIS nearly three years
now, and l am willing to live on
the same amount for a good
many more years. In the first
place, we started in buying our
home on the installment plan. We
think this better than paying
rent. Then I do my best in the
kitchen, for carelessness means
waste. Then 1 find it is lot
cheaper to make my own clothes,
and time does not hang SO heavy
on my hands. We always try to
save the nickels, for they count
more than one thinks. This is an
example by taking the Times in
stead of either News or Ledger.
We not only get the best paper,
but save between $1.25 and So a
