MORE BRONTE MYSTERY
Forged Inscription on Portrait
in National Gallery.
PICTURE ITSELF ALTERED
Was Originally of Mary Vickers
and After Change Was At
tributed to Prof. Heger.
[From The Tribune Correspondent. ]

[From The Tribune Correspondentl
London. oct. 2j.-The publication OF
the four letters written by Charlotte
Bronte to Professor Heger has let to the
dispeling OF another Bronte illusion. For
many years there has hung in the Ma
tional Portrait Gallery a small water
color portrait supposed TO be of Charlotte
Bronte by Professor Heger. IL repre-
sents Miss Bronte seated. wearing a
light green dress and reading a volume
entitled Shirley" Her hair is dressed
with side ringlets in early Victorian fash
ion.
The drawing is on Whatman paper
watermarked with the date 1850 There are
two inscriptions on the back OF the draw
Ing; one, written with brush, The Wear
ing of the Green, First Since Emily s
Death" Underneath this, written with
pen in an angular flowing hand Is: This
drawing is by Professor Heger; done from
the life in 1850: the pose was suggested
first by a sketch done by her brother,
Branwell. many years previous"
In consequence OF the publication OF the
letters of Charlotte to Professor Heger.
interest I'm this portrait was renewed and
there was another examination to satisfy
curiosity as TO the authorship. 1t was
first examined by c. ]. Holmes and then
by Mr.. Holmes and Sir Lionel Gust, with
the result that there was discovered on
the back a very faint almost indecipher-
able inscription I'm pencil. This indicated
that the portrait had been originally one
of Miss Mary Vickers, and closer ex-
animation OF the drawing seemed to show
that IL had been altered to change the
portrait OF Miss Vickers into one OF
Charlotte Bronte.
This discovery" says Sir Lionel seems
TO prove that the portrait was originally
that OF Miss Mary Nickers, but had been
converted at some time into portrait OF
Charlotte Bronte, who, at all events is
clearly intended to be represented by the
portrait in its present state. No detail
however, of the drawing, the paper the
writing, appears to be or later uate
than 1850 or the few following years. SO
that the good faith Of its previous owners
need not be called into question. The dis
covery only serves to deepen the mystery
of the relations between Charlotte Bronte
and the Heger family"
Sir Lionel adds, after pointing out that
very few persons other than Miss Bronte
and NJ and Nine. Hager could have had
any knowledge of the relations between
them: that it is clear IL the picture
had been converted from portrait or
Miss Mary Vickers into one of Miss
Charlotte Bronte this can only have
been done by some person intimately ac-
quainted with Miss Bronte and also with
Professor Heger, the m. Paul" of "Nil-
lette," seeing that the signature Paul
Heger" would be meaningless and unin-
telligible in 1850 to any person but Char
lotte Bronta herself.

DYNASTY OF CONNAUGTT
MAY "REIGN" IN CANADA
If Governor-Generalship Is
Made Hereditary Dominion
Will Virtually Have
a King.
[From The Tribune Correspondent


Toronto, Oct 31.--Coincident with the
return of the Duke and Duchess of Con-
naught to resume their duties at Rideau
Hall comes the expression OF nope on
the part OF THE Morning Post OF Lon
oon that his royal highress may long
perhars always-represent the King In
Canada
Whether this is put forward merely as
an expression inspired by the moment or
as sort of official 'feeler" to ascertain
public opinion upon the point both in Can
adj and in Great Britain Is not KNOWN
but at any rate 1t opens up an interesting
vista to Canadian people. To make the
dukes of Connaught hereditary governors
general OF Canada would in effect be TO
found a new dynasty and to give Canada
virtually a king. This would inaugurate
a marked departure in the political de-
velopment of the empire, and possibly In
time would mean that each dominion
would be presided over by separate
branch OF the British royal family.
II Is not the first time that this or
similar suggestion has been made. Only
other influential quarters that Prince Ar
thur might succeed his father at Rideau
Hall. It would, therefore, be unwise TO
dismiss the suggestion as one entirely
unlikely to be carried out. In fact. 1t Is
quite conceivable that some such ar
raneement might meet in Canada with a
large measure OF support. In itself such
a plan would be pleasing TO what is
known as the ultra imperialist section
Of the people. And II II could be accom-
panied by constitutional changes which
would give to Canada a more complete
measure OF self-government than even
that now enjoyed. II is possible IT might
also be satisfactory TO nationalist senti-
ment. even where that sentiment is quite
strongly held.
In the latter case the effect would be
the virtual establishment OF the king
dom of Canada" which was the dream OF
Sir John A. Macdonald, the distinguished
Conservative Premier who was largely
responsible for confederation. 1t may be
said that republican sentiment is practi-
caIly non-existent in Canada. This Is the
result not merely of personal loyalty to
the royal family, but also to widely
held conviction that as practical poliu-
cal system the rule of a constitutional or
limited monarchy has decided ADVANTAGES
over any other form OF government yet

Mauretania on November = with
wonderful collection of Chinese porce-
lains. There are four hundred pieces
valued at SSOO000, which will be ex-

tenth century.
There are vases, jars and bottles in
every conceivable form, and numerous
bowls, plates, ceremonial cups, temple
ornaments, temple figures, miniature

There are collections Of rich fami'le
yerte and famille rose, a collection of
monochromes and another OF early
Kanghe or Ming specimens, besides
few examples of fine blue and white
| famille noire and other rare pieces.
! Perhaps the most wonderful example

numerous panels, containing flowers "f
various colors on a white ground. The
background Of the vase is brilliant
black enamel, relieved with green foil
age and various flowers In "olors
There s also beautiful red hawthorn

with Aztec Dances.
[By Cable to The Tribune. ]

Paris, Nov. 1.-The annual autumnal
spectacular revue at the Folies Ber-
gere by Michel Carre and Andre Barde
brings Mexico to the front, with highly
picturesque and scantily draped Aztec
dances by Regina Badet and a
sprightly quicksilver young male
dancer, Robert Quinault. There are
melodramatic scenes in a Mexican
drinking and dancing hall, while an
other telling feature Is a masquerade
ball given by Arsene Houssaye in 1860,
where the whole corps de ballet and
fgurantes descend eight abreast from
the top Of a staircase of thirty eight
steps extending to the footlights.
This is a novelty in Paris and enlisted
the enthusiastic approval of the first
night public. which comprised the elite
Of the literary and art worlds of Paris
and smart contingent OF Americans.

HOW MONOPOLIES DO

Formerly long distance telephone
lines could be used for no other pur-
pose than telephoning. Then way
was found to use two telephone cir
cults for three simultaneous CONVEX
sations, thus increasing the efficiency
of long distance lines one-third with
out any additional investment to
mention.
Later on it was found possible to
send eight kilograms over the same
three telephone circuits at the same
time and without interfering with the
telephone conversations, thus more
than doubling the total efficiency of
the wires. Now let us see what the
Bell Telephone Company did. They

bought up the stock in the Western
Telegraph Company so as to get the
combination of lines to use by which
they could telephone over the tele-
graph wires that were of copper con-
struction and telegraph over the tele-
phone wires.
Of course we will assume that
big cut in long distance telephone
rates swell as telegraph rates fol-
flowed, but no such luck for the dear
public arrived. Although the Postal
Telegraph Company with the old
method could not have competed at
rates that would have left the Bell
Western Union combination a big
profit, they found that the growing
demand for means of communication
was so great that the B.-W. U. COM
blnatlon pocketed the whole saving
and even in many cases tackled on a
little to the already high rates.
Government ownership of the long
distance telephone and the telegraph
would have brought horizontal re-
duction in the rates of at least forty
per cent.
