IN THE DAYS NEWS

The Duke of Hamilton, who Is SELL
ing part Of his art collection by auc-
tion in London today, is probably dis
posing of these possessions for the
same reason that common folks do
because he needs the money. The
Duke is poor in pretty much every
thing except titles. OF titles and empty
honors he has a surfeit He is Pre-
mier Peer of Scotland, heir male of
the heroic house of Douglas, Heredi-
tary Keeper of Hollywood Palace, ETC.,
and traces his lineage back for more
than 800 years, but he hasn't money
enough to even properly keep up his
palace. When he was a young man
he was a poor lieutenant in the Brit
ish navy and there seemed not the re-
hottest chance of his succeeding to the
Dukedom, but the death of the only
son of the twelfth Duke and a sue.
cession of other deaths placed him al
the head of the family.
