BEAUTY DOCTORS.

The first ''beauty doctor'' to gain wide celebrity was one Balsamo, son of a poor shopkeeper in Palermo, but best known by his assumed tile of Count A1essandro di Caglfostro. He was born 173 years ago today, June 8, 1748, and was educated in a monas- tery. As a young man he went to Rome, where he met and married a beautiful girl. The pair then travelled over Europe, under the names of Count and Countess Cagliostro, going about in a magnificent coach-and- four, and securing access to the high est society of the countries they wis tied. They made fortune by selling a wine of Egypt disposed of in drops as being more precious than nectar, the use of which was alleged to restore vigor and youth and beauty to worn-out and wrinkled men and women. The Countess Seraph ad- duced herself as a living evidence of the efficacy of the elixir, averring that she was past 50, and had a son who was a veteran soldier. The Count claimed to be an octogenarian For years they carried on a highly profita- bIe trade in Egyptian drops, beauty waters, wrinkle eradicators and love philtres, but at length, after long en- toying the favor of cardinals and bishps, kings,A princes and nobles. Cagliostro was thrown into prison and his wife confined in 8 convent. where both died.

LORD TORPHTCEN.

John Gordon Sandilands, the thirteenth Baron Torhichen, who is
 one is one of the many titled officers
 of the British army, was born 80
 years ago today, June 8, 1S86. The young soldier peer succeeded to the. ancient Scottish title on the death of
 his father last year, having previously been known as the Master of Torph- ichen, after the Scotch custom which beStoVs the title of master" upon the
 eldest sons of barons. Lord Torph-
 ichens has paid several visits to the
 United States and Canada, and owns considerable real estate in British Co.,
 lumbia and Alberta. About a year
 ago he secured a leave of absence from the army in order, to cross the
 Atlantic, and spent most of his time at the Long Island home of Winslow
 & Pierce. The reason for the voyage
 was revealed a few months ago when
 MT. and Mrs. Pierce announced the engagement of their daughter, Miss
 Grace Douglass Pierce, to the Scottish
 laird. Lord Torphichen met Miss
 Pierce in London two years ago, and from the first he was so devoted in his attentions to the American girl that the romantic continuation or
 their friendship occasioned no sur prise in London social circles.
 The young soldiers full title IS Baron TOrph1chen or st. JOnn or TOT phichen, West-Lothian in Scotland.
 The barohy dates from 1864, and the clan traces it's history back to James Sandilands, who became hostage for James I. after his capture by the English in 1421. The first Lord Tor phichen held at the time of the Re- formation the office of Prior of St.
 John, chief of the Knights Hospita1-
 CTS, a position which gave him a lead ing place among the barons in Par lament. The family seat, Calder House in Midlothian, has been held l by the Sandi1ands clan since the four teenth century. Those lands as we'll as the barony were conferred upon the first Lord Torphichen by Mary Queen of Scots. Lord Torphichen has royal blood in his veins, as one of his ancestors, in the fourteenth century, married Princess Joan, a daughter of King Robert II. of Scotland. The young Baron became heir to the title only about seven years ago, when his elder brother, John Sandilands, died l of a fever contracted while serving l his country in Africa

GERMAN CRUISER ROSTOCK IS LOST. ADMIRALTY SAYS

London, June 8-A Central News despatch from Amsterdam says that the German official statement de- clares that the loss of the cruisers Lutzow and Rostoclo in the battle off Jutland, was withheld for military reasons. Both ships are said to have sunk while on their way to a harbor for repairs.
 This is the first mention of the loss of the cruiser Rostock. @The Rostock was a small warship of 4,900 tons and was built in 1912. She carried 373 men and was armed with twelve 4-inch guns and two torpedo tubes The Lutzow was a 26,000 ton dreadnaught battle cruiser.
 Berlin, June 8-An official state ment issued today gives the total loss of the German high sea forces during the battle off Jut1and and up to the ship of the line of older construction, four small cruisers and five torpedo boats.
 The statement says:
 ftOf these losses the battleship Pom mern was launched in 1905. The loss of the cruisers Wiesbaden, EGbing, Frauen1ob and five torpedo boats has already been reported in official state ments. For military reasons, we re- trained until now from making pub lie the loss of the battle cruiser Lut- zow and the cruiser Rostock."
 The destruction of the I1utzow was claimed in the first statement, issued by the British Admiralty. At the same time the British claimed that two German battleships had been sent to the bottom and six destroyers as well as the ramming of a submarine. The British, however, only claimed to have sunk one German light cruis- CT.

VIENNESE PEACE
 ADVOCATES HELD AFTER OUTBREAK

London, June S-An Amsterdam despatch to the Exchange Telegraph Company says that peace demonstrat- ors, most of whom were women, marched from Vienna Monday even ing to Schoenbrun Castle, the resi- dence of the Emperor, and demanded a separate peace with Russia.
 A number of the women managed to avoid the police and entered the castle where they shouted their de- mands beneath the windows of the Emperor's private apartments. They were arrested and the castle guard was later equipped with machine guns.

ERZINGAN.

Erzingan, the little city in Asia Minor which has been given frequent mention of late in connection with the Russian campaign against the Turks, is situated on a, branch of the upper Euphrates. It has a. popula- ton of about 10000, d large propor- ton being of Armenian blood. Err zingan has long been an important military post of the Turkish govern ment, as it occupies an important po- sition midway between Trebizond to the north, Kharput to the south and Erzerum to the east, each of these cities being about 75 miles distant. Erzingan has been under Turkish rule since the fifteenth century, when it was added to the realm of Mo hammed H., shortly after the Turks stantinopIe. Previous to that it had been a, stronghold of the Mongo1s and later of the Tartars. Several momen- tous battles have been fought in the vicinity of this quaint old town. In the eleventh century Romanus ", Emperor of the East, was defeated by Alp Arslan, chief of the Seljuk Turks, in this vicinity. Romanus is chiefly remembered because of the roman tic incident which led to his eleva- ton to the imperial dignity. He was an army officer when he was convict ed of treason. While on the way to the place of execution he was seen by Eudocia Macrembolitisa, the empress regent, who was immediately enamor- ed of the handsome officer. She or dered that he be released in her cus- tody, became his mistress, and shortly afterwards married him, when he was crowned as emperor. His defeat by the Seljuk Turks led to his down fall, and he spent his remaining years in exile.

Ii Yuan Hung, former vice presi- dent of China, who becomes president of China in succession to the late Yuan Shih Kai in the regular course of events, would remain, in office until October of next year, when the term of five years for which Yuan Shin Kai was elected will expire. Owing to the disturbed political conditions in China, however, his tenure of office is uncertain. Ii Yuan Hung is reported to have been in sympathy with the rebel movement, although little has been heard of his activities in recent months. The state department at Washington was adv:sed on May IT that he had been elected president of four seeding provinces in southern China. Ii Yuan Hung is ffty-two years old. He served on a cruiser during the Chino-Japanese war and later entered the army. After the abdication of the Manchus he was elected vice president Of the republic and appointed chief of the general staff. He was made a general and in October of 1913 was reelected vice president.
