LORD DID NOT MARRY
SPANISH DANCER
SACKVILLE PEERAGE ROMANCE
COMES TO AN END IN BRIT
ISH COURT.

LONDON, Feb. 14.-The Sackville
peerage romance came to prosaic
end today with the dismissal of the
petition of Ernest Txenry Sackville-
West, who sought to establish a legal
claim to the title and estates of his
father the late Lord Lionel Sackville-
West. former British Minister at
Washington.
Sir John Bigham, president of the
Probate Court. condemned the prison
err to pay the costs, which have been
very heavy. The petition was opposed
by the present Lord Sackville, a neph-
ew of the late Lord, on the ground
that the uncle had never married Jo-
sefa Duran the mother of the petit
toner.
Sir John delivered lengthy judg-
ment. in which he said that the evil
dence was convincing that the late
Lord had never married the Spanish
dancer, and that the latter was the
wife of Antonio OLIVIA during the pc
riod of the Jason. Lord Sackville had
been anxious to marry her, and would
have done so had her husband been
out of the way. The president adj
ded that the petitioners letter to his
sister, in which he wrote Remember
we are illegitimate," showed plainly
that the petitioner knew his position.

OLD MANS DARLING
TO OBTAIN PENSION
YOUNG WIDOWS MULTIPLYING
FAST AND PEOPLE HAVE GOT
TO PAY 'EM.

WASHINGTON, Fe0. 15-The young
widows are coming in for their share
of Uncle Sans generosity in the
shape of pensions. The present law
grants annuities only to the widows Of
soldiers of the Civil War who were
married before June q, 1890. Many
of the old soldiers have taken help
mates since that date, and for the last
twenty years Congress has been be-
seiged in the interest of this multi
tide. There are now between 10000
and $4,000 of them, and the pressure
has become so strong that the Senate
committee on pensions decided to meet
today for the purpose of taking up the
question. 1t is considered probable
that a favorable report will be made
within a comparatively short time.
The House committee has also agreed
to consider the subject and the inti-
nations are that the report from That
committee will also be favorable.
If the bill should become a law it
should add from 100000 to $4,000
900 to the pension roll. There is
special provision in the bill requiring
that in order to become beneficiary
any widow must have lived with her
soldier husband at least three years.
This requirement is inserted to pro-
tect veterans from the wiles of the
women who might seek only to put
themselves in the way of becoming
subjects of Uncle Sans charitable
ministrations.

AFTER SOCIETY
FOLK WHO GAMBLE
WOMEN WHO INDULGE IN CARD
GAMES FOR PRIZES TO BE
"PULLED.'

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Feb. 15.-Mr
Guy Eddie, city prosecutor under the
good government" administration, an
nounced today that society women who
INDUCED in quiet games of bridge, old
maid or similar pastime for any prize
will be arrested. They are just as
guilty of a misdemeanor, he says, as
the man who conducts blind pig"
and must be dealt with accordingly.
Il have been informed that bridge
is not the only gambling game that
many of the society women indulge in
when they go out to spend a quiet
afternoon" said the prosecuting attor-
ney. Bridge is tame for some of the
western bellies, and of late / have
heard of poker-the real thing, draw,
stud and all the various brands of
that typical game-has become the
pastime of many women"
