A Rothschi1d Who Has
 Devoted Life to Art

Rothschild is name associated in the popular mind with financial acu- men and money in large quantities, but not all of the members of that famous dynasty of wealth have de- voted themselves to adding to the family fortune. The new Lord Rorths- child is a case in point, for he has a. holy detestation of finance in all it's forms and thinks only of scientific pursuits and his uncle, Alfred Charles de Rothschi1d, younger brother of the late first Baron TsothschiId, the head oL the British houae. ia equally devot-a eG to art. Although a Iartner in the firm of N. M. RothschiId & Sons, he always left the management of if nanciaI affairs to his elder brother, meetings of the firm was merely, a. matter of form. The other brother
 he late Baron Rothschi1d finds his chief interest in sports especially racing, and he too, was always will- ing to delegate full authority to his master1y elder brother. The relations between the three were always of the most affectionate nature, and Lord RothschiId held no resentment against his brothers because of their indis- position to help in the management of the great interests of the firm. AL fred Charles de Rothschild. the sec ond of the three elder brothers. was born in London seventy-three years ago today and was educated at Kings College school and at Cambridge, Af- ter leaving college he entered the banking business, and for some years was a director of the Bank of Eng land, but he showed little aptitude or liking for financial matters. From his youth he was an art connoisseur, and the greater part of his mature life has been devoted to the accumu- 1ation of art objects rather than money. For many years he was con- sul-general in London of the Austro- Hungarian government, and he was decoratedMp the Austrian emperor and the Herman emperor He has published several volumes on art, dealing with his own collections He is bachelor, and his fortune will go to his nephews. Lionel Walter, second Lord Rothschi1d, and Charles Nathan ie1, the younger son of the first baron Although the title has passed to Lionel Walter, the bulk of theH for tune of the late Lord RothschiId was conferred upon his younger son, Charles, in recognition of his greater financial ability. The present Lord Rothschi1d has no interest in finance but he is a zoologist of note, and the author of numerous books and articles dealing with his favorite science.

HENRY OF REUss

Prince Henry xxVII. of Reuss, ruler Of a little German principality and a general of Prussian cavalry. is ftfty-seven years old. He made quite
 a reputation for himself in the Ger man array before he went to rule as regent for his insane cousin, Prince Henry XIV, in 1892. The mad ruler of Reuss died about two years ago, in his eighty-first year. and was suc- ceeded as head of the younger branch of the Reuss family by Prince Henry kXVIIf Prince xxVI.. head of the older, line of the Reuss house, also succumbe to madness, which runs in Reuss, which form a part of Thur ingia and have a. combined area of 40 square miles. enjoy only the shadow of autonomy and are really a part of Prussia, except that they re- tain their princes, have constituti ons of their own, and send representatives, to the Reichstag and 8 member ofethe ruling house to the Council of the Empire. Prince Henry, the son and heir of Prince Henry xXV1I., was killed in battle last October. He was eighteen years old and a lieutenant in a Thuringian infantry regiment All the princes of the houses of Reuss bear the name of Henry, the indi- viduals being distinguished by num- bers. In the older line the enumera- tion continues until 100 is reached, when it begins again. In the younger line the first prince born in a cen tury becomes Prince Henry l., and the enum eration continues to the end of the century, when it begins again. The house of Reuss is divided into two branches, the older or Reuss- Greiz and the Cadet or Reuss- Schleiz-Gera, and the latter in turn is subdivided into two houses. Prince Henry xXXVII.s of Reuss, who visited the United States as an officer on the German cruiser Moltlxe some years ago belongs to the second house of the second line of the cadet branch. Tn view of the divisions and subdf-s visions into which this little princely house is divided, it is small wonder that so many of the family have been afflicted with 1unaey.

Hungarian Workmen To Hold Mass Meet
 To Consider Wages

A meeting of Hungarian speaking laborers working in various factories throughout Bridgeport is to be call ed in Rakoczy hall to. consider the question of wages being paid in this city. The agitation for better wa ges is said to have originated with the New York Hungarian paper Fibre commonly known in English as the sF.orward.n What other influences are behind the movement cannot be ascertained to-day but it is generally feared that the Hungarian element. which is largely employed in factories all throughout Bridgeport may pre- sent a serious complication to the present turbulent condition.
