AMERICAN FURNITURE
IN PRINCES RESIDENCE
Finest Specimens of Handiwork
Owned by Husband of Former
Chicago Girl.

Special Cabiegram to The Star
PARIS, September 7.-American furni-
ture has received a powerful Endorsement
in Paris by the fact that Prince Nicholas
Engalitcheff has furnished his newly ac-
quired residence in the Rue de Lubbock
with some of the finest specimens. Ameri-
can society is notably the gamer because
the prince and princess, formerly Miss
Partridge of Chicago, have decided to live
here permanently.
The prince. who used to represent the
Russian government in Chicago, met the
tariff wall when he tried to bring his
American furniture into France, but his
connection with the diplomatic corps
and the Intervention of the Russian am
bassador to Paris overcame all difficult
ties.
His house at 36 Rue Lubbock is most in
terestingly tenanted. Howard Gould has
a suite here, and Immediately over his
are the gorgeous apartments of Katherine
Hutchinson, his fiancee. On the next
floor Mrs. Rose Amber Curran, formerly
Ethel Cook of San Francisco, resides.
Lastly, the princess brother and sister
in-law, Mr. and Mrs. f. w. Partridge,
are now visiting here.

that reforms are 10 come by evolution
and not by revolution. says Henry
Clews. Political leaders recognized
that important changes are coming;
changes that wiz benefit the masses
and consequently the nation. And they
must also recognize that these changes
should be made gradually; that a
sudden or violent disruption of estab-
lished institutions and methods would
throw our industrial system ipto chaos
to the injury Of all and the benefit Of
none. Happily the two conventions
have materially cleared the political
atmosphere. White the actual results Of
the election cannot yet be foretold
with certainty. the encouraging fac,
remains that extreme rsdicalism has
received a conspicuous check IN both
parties and that the sober second
thought Il the American people is
averse 10 what would appear 10 be rev.

danger has thus been removed from
business calculations. Those at the
head Of industrial and commercial az

dence. and as a result We may expect
a steady Improvement in business
from now on. unless there should be
an unexpected disaster to the crops.
