GOSSIP OF THE COURTS


He was greatly struck. during hia
travels. by a votive church built on
the outskirts of Vienna by the En-
peror Franz Josef. He approached
the architect and asked him to build
an exact replica. The architect re-
piled that it could not be done with
out the lease of the Emperor, who
consented on condition that the build
ing should be dedicated to the SER
vice of the Roman Catholic faith. Sir
Tatton decided. as did Henri Nv at
Paris, that so beautiful a house was
worth a mass Cardinal Manning
then was approached, but the nego-
tiations somehow fell through
Sir Tatton lived on terms OF
friendly separation from his wife, a
lady of considerable accomplish
ments. but erratic habits and temper
ament, and hardly suited for running
in double harness. On his side also
sir Tatton was a trihe eccentric. 1t
is said that one of his peculiarities
was to wear seven very thin silk
coats. one on top of the other. Not
many guard their health so careful
as Sir Tatton Sykes, who in winter
wore five or six coats when out rid
ing. and shed some of them when he
became warmer.
Prince PoutialkDe, however, took
even stronger precautions against ill-
ness. If there was a touch of cold in
the air, he had fires lit in his grounds,
before venturing to stroll in them
His waistcoats we're made in two sep
arate pieces Joined at the sides by
buttons, so that he could take them
off or put additional ones on with
out removing his coat If caught IN
shower he sheltered himself with
an umbrella nearly two feet wide
which came down below his waist and
was pierced with little windows.
In very hot weather the Prince wore
boots coated within as a protection
against mad dogs. and carried sponges
soaked with vinegar in his shirt front
to ward off unpleasant smells.
In saying at GLASGOW during one
of his anti-German speeches that he
had received the highest possible
honors at the hands of the German
Emperor. Lord Roberts, the British
field marshal, was alluding, of course,
to the Black Eagle. highest of Prus-
sian decorations. corresponding to the
British Garter, which was conferre
upon him on his return from the
Boer war an act of favor which caus-
ed a great outcry at the time among
the Chauvinists at Berlin. There is
only one other English MN, outside
the royal family, on whom the same
distinction has been bestowed. and
that is Sir Frank Lascelles, who on
quitting the British embassy at Ber-
lin. received this highest mark of
imperial favor in acknowledgement
of his effort in the cause of a better
understanding between the two coun-
tries.

pretty sure to have either bad roads
or tremendous assessments.
Restrictions Vital.
Restrictions on property are vital
in determining its future character.
For example, restriction in oer-
tain section permitting no house to be
erected under a certain price IS a seri-
GUS mistake, as no supervision over
the character of the architecture is
held, and such communities are very
disappointing. Again. the character
of a suburb by reason of its growth
may change in future years, and re-
strictions should always be subject
to change by the majority of the resi-
dents joining together in amending
them.
Responsibility Important
"Home-buyers and investors should
Thoroughly investigate the RESPONSE
bility Of the developing companies be-
fore purchasing, especially where al
improvements are not installed. but
are to be completed by the develop
ment company at later time, and
the contract of sale should be made
to include a guarantee as to date of
completion also specifying the char
actor of the improvements in detail,
giving size Of mains for public utilities
and extent of their ramifcatons. The
purchaser is also entitled TO know,
when the property is mortgaged, as
TO the ability of the development COM
paby TO release his particular segment
from under the mortgage and give
title when demanded"
