LONDON, Oct. 9.-Sheriff James Rolls.

Mayor of London. That, of course, Is
not~the real name of Sir Edward Coo
per's successor. but 1t is the real char
acter Of James Rolls, who has been
Sheriff for ten years and is now to be-
come Lord Mayor. He is one of Eng
lands most famous coaching men and
is In possession of several fine automo-
biles.
"Chauffeurs drive them. / drive my
chestnuts myself" he has said.
And on his box behind the four finest
chestnuts in England. the future Lord
Mayor Is happiest. He has even threat
enel to cast precedent to the winds and
drive his own coach to the Guildhall
for his Inauguration as Lord Mayor, but
It is a threat he makes with laugh
a laugh, incidentally, to the very echo
of King Edward.
Mr.. Rolls was president Of the famous
Pickwick Coaching Club, and, ACCORDING
to the rules of that organization, upon
festive occasions each member must be
addressed by a Dickensonian sobriquet
Thereby he became the immortal Sam
uel The runs to Margate, to Hastings
to Ramsgate, to Folkestone and to Var
mouth of that coaching organization
were invariably attended by Alfred Van
derbilt, when he was In London. He and
Mr.. Rolls were intimate friends ano
Mr.. Rolls's chestnuts frequently excited
Mr.. Vanderbilts envy. even though Mr.
Vanderbilt was the owner of famous
grays.
The future Lord Mayor OF London Is
one OF the living refutatons of the
theory that a boy OF humble origin can.
rot rise In England. Born on Nor
folk farm. he came TO London as al
office boy when he was fourteen year:
old. In true American fashion he arose
through successive ranks in the grea
Pearl Insurance Company and retired
as chairman of the board of directors
after fifty years service and with fin
fortune. from which he has contributed
generously to many charities which orig
mate about the gaudily heralded halls o

Romantic History Attached

Copyright, 1890, by THE NEW York HERALD.
LONDON, oct. 9.-The much heralded
new Turkish stamps have proved to be
merely reimpressions. I'm altered colors.
OF the beautiful pictorial designs used
in 1914. These stamps have already
had somewhat romantic history. Orig
lnally prepared to the order OF the Otto
man Government by a London Arm, they
were brought into use early In 1914, and
were current in Turkey at the time the
Sublime Porte decided 20 enter the war
on the side OF the Central Powers. Ger
tain values had been overprinted with
Turkish inscription commemorating the
abrogation of the European capitulations
in October, 1914, which preceded Tur-
keys entry into the war.
In 1918. when stamps were required
for use b. the military administration
OF Mesopotamia the British Government
sscertained that the original dies and
plates for the Turkish postage stampe
OF 1914 were still in the possession OF
the printers. II was decided 20 make
use Of these for tho purpose OF provid-
ing provisional stamps for the occupied
zone. The stamps were overprinted
"Trad in British Occupation and the
values were converted into Indian cur
rency by means OF surcharge.
Now the same types. illustrating
scenes in and around Constantinople and
the Bosporus, have again been brought
into use by the ottoman postal service
thus adding further varieties for the de-
lectation OF stamp collectors. The col
ors and values OF the reissues are: Five

tres, gray green (Thc Candile) 10 plas-

PARIS, Oct. 9.-Hugh c. Wallace,

British Ambassador, created sensation
in the Rue de la Paix when they visited
the opening of the fashion show in the

Mr. Molyneux was captain in the

that Lord Derby attended his opening

company him, Both Ambassadors ex-
pressed admiration Of the most beauti-

When the bidding commenced the
Ambassadors bid up prices until they
were informed that only the gowns

which they left the negotiations to Lady
