COUSIN
GOING
Marquis Of Carisbrooke, Grand
son of Victoria, to Be
Steamship Director.

NEW YORK, Feb. 3.-The Marquis
Of Carisbrooke, a son of Prince
Henry OF Battenbe:g, grandson OF
Queen Victoria, a cousin of King
George V. and brother of the
Queen of Spain, will sail for Eng
land on the Aquitania today to enter
upon a business career.
GUEST OF vANDERBILTs.
Lord Carisbrookc has been here
since the middle OF December. a guest
OF Gen. Cornelius Vanderbilt, and has
taken part in many Of the seasons
social functions. His bright per
sonality and democratic manner won
him a high degree OF popularity dur
ing his sojourn.
The mafquis. who Is thirty-four
years old and has never been engaged
in any sort of commercial pursuit
has accepted a place on the board OF
directors of the British steamship
company of Lamport Holt.
His post will not be simply hon
orary. He intends to engage actively
in the shipping business and TO be
in his London office daily.
COURSE Is UNUSUAL.
1t Is extremely unusual-if not, in
deed, unprecedented-for one so close
to royalty as to be almost a part of
royalty itself to engage I'm a gainful
occupation lat least actively, but
Lord Carisbrookc is a modern noble
man, with a modern vision, and he
himself feels no other sentiment than
pride in his decision and eagerners
to be on the job.
He frequently voiced these senti-
ments to old and new American
friends during his stay here. In fact,
he made no secret of his desire to go
to work and did not hesitate to say
that he had come TO America chiefly
for the purpose OF making a con-
nection."
SOUGHT FINANCIAL POST.
1t was understood that his prefer
ence was for a post in the financial
world: that he wished to be the Brit
ish representative of a large Ameri-
can trust institution. But just that
sort of vacancy was not open at the
moment. so, rather than wait, he ac-
cepted the offer OF the Lamport g.
Holt firm. This is a great shipping
organization which does a large busi-
ness between New York and South
American ports.
lHes MarQuls IS ldTly tail, SlcnueT,

light mustache. He has pleasing
singing voice and a good sense OF
humor. and won a reputation as a
raconteur while here. His venture

interest by great number of New
Workers. who met him.
HI SHAME ANGELIcIZED.

course, was originally Battenbcrg. II
was changed during the war when
the British royal house dropped all its
Teutonic nomenclature and called IT.

The German word Battenberg
means the mountain OF Batten," so
the English version of IL was made
