A game of chance in which the

In his wife's trail. The rules are very

but if your wife holds you up for a
much larger amount the next morn

termed diplomacy" and counts in her
favor. In this, as in other games of
life, wives are usually allowed more
privileges than other outlaws.-Judge

Son Gives Decisive Answer.

For answer the son Immediately
married her and lost $50, 00O, 900. which
his father willed to Alfred Gwynne
afterward. 1t was the largest fortune
ever given up for love, and, strange
to say, the man who lost it has
seemed to be the most happy of all
the Vanderbilts in his matrimonial re-
lations.
Mrs. Cornelius is said to be one of
the few women in her set of New York
society who has brains, and she is a
perfect society leader. She is a de-
voted mother to her beautiful children,
and under her influence Cornelius has
worked hard in the railroad business.
He has. Invented several appliances
which are in use on his own and other
railroads. He is a scholarly and un-
usual man, and there are some who
think that he may have the best gifts
to pass on in succession of any of the
Vanderbilts.
But the money, so the father willed,
should be conserved and passed on by
Alfred Gwynne, who married Elsie
French. Alfred was not scholarly,
however. He was not even possessed
of the microbe of family devotion. His
reflections, both from the path of
business and matrimonial allegiance,
have been notorious-andc costly. They
have cost him his wife and a ire
mendous alimony, and the separation
from his eight.year-old son, William
Henry. the child to whom the bulk of
the fortune was to have been passed
on.

But now Alfred shows signs of mar

love" should hit upon some one who
is eligible to matrimony. Lately it
has lowered around Miss Lena Ash

every way his equal socially and who
is his superior in present standing, on
account of his escapades. Mrs. Elsie
