does not begin and end, as is popular
" supposed, with the appointment of
her personal ladies'. Since Kiug
George came to the throne, Queen
Mary has insisted upon superintend-

and administration Of the Royal
household, work which In the past
was delegated 10 Court officials This
has resulted in many alterations, par

The Maybrick cause ceebre is re-
called by the recent death of the COM
poser of "The Star Of Bethlehem -

Michael Maybrick. brother of the man
of whose death that American woman
was convicted, and at the trial Of
whom he gave accusing evidence at
the Liverpool Assizes Mrs. Maybrick
was found guilty Of poisoning her
husband. James Maybrick. She was
sentenced to die, but the sentence was
commuted subsequently TO one of
penal servitude for life Some years
ago she was released. as a result of
monster petition of American wo-
men, and while she now lives in the
United States, her two children we're
adopted and supported by the COM
poser of "The Star of Bethlehem
Sixty-nine years of age, Michael
Maybrick was FIVE times Mayor Of
Ryde, Isle of Wight; a justice OF the
peace, and at one time captain in the
Artists Volunteer Corps These ac-
tivities were in keeping with his Wig
orous personality. But he will be
remembered best for the haunting
cadences and the emotional fervor Of
THE Holy City "The Star of Bethlc-
hem" and "Thora," and for the breezy
optimism and domestic sentiment of
Nancy Lee, "They All Love Jack,
and other songs.
His musical career began in Liver
pool. At the age of eight he was a
boy pianist of repute, while at fifteen
he had mastered the magnificent or

he went 10 Leipzig and Milan and
studied with Moscheles. Carl Richter,

his voice so that when he returned
to London he appeared as barytone

suLzER,s EyAsIyE DEFENSE.

THE defense of Governor Suzer Of New York con-
tinues to be OF evasion that is far from
pleasing. The inference sought to be conveyed by
his counsel that those who contributed to his cam
paign fund did not what he did with the money
and that therefore there no mproprety in using
for Wall street speculation will not do the impeach
ed Democratic Governor much good in the public
mind Those who made the contributions are maxi
ing magnanmous effort to save him. but IL is an
open question to what extent that magnanimity will
avail him.
IL is pity of course that the public career OF such
man as Governor Sulzer should suffer such an ir
remedabe blight II is doubly pity that that blight
should be put upon him by such a corrupt and com
scioness political agent as Tammany Hall But the
bald fact remains that bill Of impeachment CON
tanning several serious charges exists against the
Governor and that he must stand or fall unon his
ability or inability to dsprove thoe charges He
must not rely for his defense upon the bad character
OF Tammany his accuser. He must devote his time
to an effort to his own innocence of the exist
ing charges and it will do for him to make eva
sion the foundation of his defense The charge of the
attempted suppression Of evidence by sulzer has been
strengthened materially by the testimony of al least
TWO witnesses both Of whom contributed to his cam
paign fund, and seemingly the prosecution has much
more damaging testimony in reserve.
