FRENCH COUNTS
SOUTHERN WIFE
A DIVORCE
New Orleans Belle Asks Separa-

rage, Establishing Record.
Special Cable to The American.

PARIS, Sept. 27.-What is believed
to be the record for brief duration
OF International marriages has been
established by the Countess de Bois
Lucy formerly Miss Julia O'NeiU. of
New Orleans, and later Mrs. ]. ID.
Batchelder. who has begun divorce
proceedings in the Paris courts. The
suit will be heard in a few weeks. II
the case is not delayed in the courts,
less than year is likely to elapse
between the marriage ana the di-
vorce.
The suit also shows the difficulty
American women find in filing the
part of wives of foreigners, even
where the marriage originally is
based on love. Last year Mrs. Batch
elder, who lived both in New Orleans
and Chicago, where she had many
friends, was the widow of a wealthy
lumberman. She broke her enga ge-
ment, by mutual consent with Prince
John Sapieha Kohenski, brother Of
the Archbishop of Austria, who Is
now in the United States, in order
to wed Count Andre Hayoit de Bots
Lucy, member of one of the oldest
and richest families in France.
1t was a union of pure affection
Ahi D ibAAN lltAhNAp I'D ms ItJtEltu the
Austrian Prince in order to marry
French count could not be regarded
as seeking a title, while the Count
was so little inclined to regard the
monetary side of the marriage that
he entered into a contract providing
for separation, which under the
French law means that each party
to the marriage retains full posses
sion and control of his or her own
property.
The wedding was celebrated in
Paris on December % and the honey
moon was spent in Cairo. The Fran
co-American idyl, however, was not
destined to last long. The Countess
coon became convinced that she had
made a mistake. The American
womans ideal Of married life clashed
hopelessly with that of a French no.
bleman. The Counts behavior was
perfectly correct from the French
standpoint, the Countess alleging
neither misconduct nor physical cru
city. Frequent disputes, however,
soon disclosed irreconcilable View
points and finally the Countess real
izing that she had entered the wrong
road to happiness, took preliminary
steps for a divorce.

mail arrives for Charlton daily from

small part reaches him, as everything
is read by an interpreter and passed
on by a magistrate, the latter of
whom suppresses what he regards not
convenient" for the prisoner to see.
Inc prisoner is in a good state of
health and takes an hours exercise
every day in the open court of the
prison, where he has set up a kind
OF rude gymnasium, containing,
among other things, a punching bag,
which he attacks furiously.

finding Of the woman's body on the
suspicion that he had murdered both
her and her husband. His position
has not yet been settled from a judi

be discharged before the trial begins.

Charlton and taking up the report
that the prisoner asked for bananas,

ALEXANDRA IS
LOOKING AFTER
NEWLYWEDS
Young Royal Pairs Are Receiving
Attention of the Widow of
King Edward.
Special Gable to The American.

LONDON Sept 27.-Queen Alex
andra, who always has been a match
maker. is taking intense interest in
the doings of various royal couples
newly married or engaged, and her
home at Sandringham will soon be a
kind OF honeymoon palace.
Among those who will visit her are
the Prince and Princess Ernest of
Brunswick. ex-King Manuel of Portu-
gal and his bride, who have decided
to adopt the title Don Manuel and
Donna Augustine de Briganza. and
Prince Arthur of Connaught and the
Duchess of Fife, who will not take up
their residence in their town house in
Mount street until December.
King George is most anxious that
the Connaught wedding shall be a
family affair rather than a public
spectacle. The labor unrest Is Sc
riously worrying the King and Queen,
who wish to avoid any display in the
streets. 1t is, therefore decided that
there shall be no semi-state process
sion from Buckingham Palace to the
Cnapel Royal, 81. James.
Among the many wonderful we'd
ding presents the Duchess Of Fife has
already received, none has given her
more pleasure than the historic gold
presented to her by her
grandmother, Queen Alexandra.
These ornaments are of Oriental
workmanship and very old. They
have been handed down from genera
tion to generation and to Queen Alex
andra from her mother the Queen of
Denmark
As rule evening dress, feathers
and Jewels are worn by women al
royal weddings, but 1t is believed
morning dress and hats will mark this
occasion.
The BRIDE elect has never forgotten
her terrible experience on the steam
ship, when she was nearly drowned,
and she dislikes continental travel.
Probably. therefore, the honeymoon
will be spent in England, and proba-
bly, at birmingham

LONDON, Sept. 27.-Never crossed
in her life before, Lady Sackville. who
recently established her right after a
sensational suit to a major portion
of the immense fortune of Sir John
Murray Scott, to-day faces being
baked in her highest ambition.
Her only daughter, Miss Victoria
Sackville- West, talented and beauti-
full heir to her mothers millions, for
whom the ambitious mother had
planned a marriage to a man with a
noble name, has decided to become
the bride of a commoner.
Her engagement to Harold Nichol-
son. youngest son of Sir Arthur Mich
olson, the House of Commons Clerk,
has been announced, and so complete
has her victory over her mother been
charge of the wedding preparations,
as she intends to make it brilliant
affair at any cost.

erless debutante of no particular fam
lily connections would consider bril-
liant and Lady Sackville fought
against it with all the tenacity and
force of her character
What that force is can be esti-
mated when it is remembered that as
girl in her teens in Washington
when her father was British Ambas-
sador she conceived the plan of mar
rying her first cousin and then seCur-
ing him and herself in the possession
of her fathers title and estates by
exposing her own mothers past life
as a Spanish dancer who had not the
slightest bond to the father of her
children and consequently no claim
to the estate Of the diplomat.
She beggared her brother and sis
ters with apparently as much indif-
ference as she besmirched her moth
ers name, and the audacity and skill
by which she won the greater part of
the Scott fortune is recent history.
Girl BaIks Ambition.
Shortly before the trial she confided
to a friend that she was now arriv-
ing at the goal of all her ambitions,
which was to make her daughter a
great heiress and then arrange a bril-
liant marriage.
Miss Victoria SaCkviIle- West is ex-
tremely pretty and unusually inter-
esting. With the remarkable ability
Of her mother to plan her future, she
might easily have been a duchess.
But right in the midst Of the trial
she announced her engagement to
young Nicholson. Her mother print
ed denials, but the young woman has
much Of her parents firmness of
character. AS a result Lady Sackville
had at last to admit defeat and make
the best of it.
The bridegroom elect is good
looking young man Of 20, and he has
minor diplomatic post in COnstan-
tinOple. where he will take his bride
after the brilliant nuptials.
