There died IN ParlS the oIAeE udy
man who came near being one Of
the proud mobiles of England. The
circumstances attending his death
are pathetic.
He was Ernest Henri Jean Bap-
tiste SaskvilleIWest, the natural son
of a British ambassador to this coun-.
try. His father, Lord Sackville, was
the British representative at Wash
ington during the first Cleveland ad-
ministration and was recalled by his
government at the instance OF Pres
ident Cleveland for meddling in our
domestic politics. When Lord Sack
willie was a young man and known
bv the title Sir Lionel SackVille-
West. he met while attached to the
British embassy at Paris a Spanish
dancer. Josefa Duran de Ortega, bet
fer known as Pepita. For years they
lived together and several children,
among them the recent suicide IN
Paris and the present Lady Sackville,
were born. For the girls Lord Sack
Vile amply provided, but the son,
the only male issue, was completely
ignored.
On Lord Sackville's death this son
the same who killed himself IN
paris-brought suit to establish his
right to the title and estate of the
Sackyille-West family. The holder
of the title. who had succeeded on
the death of Lord Sackville, was a
nephew, Sir Lionel Sackville-West'
who had married sister OF the
Paris suicide. The sister took the
stand at the time and testified to
the LEGITIMACY of her brother, as
we'll as to her own, thus casting
shame on her mother, the Spanish
dancer. The brother failed in his
suit and the title and estate remained
in the secure possession of Sir Lionel.
Later and much more recently the
same Lady Sackville figured in an
other sensational lawsuit, involving
the millions left by Sir John Murray
Scott. The latter was secretary to
Sir Richard Wallace, who was de-
scendant of an il1egitimate issue by
King George W. When Wallace died
Scott succeeded in getting into the
good graces of Mrs. Wallace and on
the latter's death he inherited the
property.
Lady Sackville saw an opportunity
to profit by her cajolery of Scott ana
she exerted such an influence over
him that when he died he left the
fortune which had descended to him
from Mrs. Wallace to his charmer
The relatives of Scott, however
brought suit to break the will on the
ground of undue influence and the
case was the sensation of England.
The story of Lady Sackville-ner
origin and her rise to greatness
was again exploited. But she won
and retained the Scott millions.
Meantime her brother-the recent
suicide-had drifted along in life
without helping hand from his sis
ter. He worked at odd jobs, cnleng
carpenterfng, and finally made MS
way to Paris. There he lived happily
enough with his wife, French girl
until she was stricken with cancer.
When she died quite recently he took
one look at the body and walking
into another room blew out his
brains with a revolver.

WASHINGTON, D. George
Higgins Moses, former United States
minister to Greece and Montenegro,
in a communication to the National
Geographic society; describes Monte
negro as one of the oldest countries
in the world. There the women are
the producers, clothes make the man,
the king is greater than the ministry,
the chamber or the constitution, and
man may be imprisoned for eating
hedgehog. A man who is struck may
kill the striker, provided it be done
at once; if he delays, he is punished
as a murderer.
The writer paints King Nicholas
in glowing colors. ''In the 54 years
of his reign, he has doubled his ter
ritory, added two Adriatic ports to
his possessions and has organized
ministries, the courts, finance and
all the departments of the govern
ment," he says. Where, when he
came to the throne, only few diff
cult trails threaded the hills, today
a splendid network of roads connects
all the principle points of the king
