lights still appealed to Lord Ellington
when he had nothing more exciting to do.
One evening he started extinguishing the
public lights in the important naval town
of Portsmouth, where the authorities have
enough trouble keeping the sailors in order.
When Ellington had created large area
of darkness he fed from the pursuing
policemen on a motor bicycle.
In the darkness he came into violent
collision with a motor car. He was Sc.
verely injured and picked up unconscious.
He was taken to the Coshum Hospital,
where he was under treatment for a con.

denotes, young Lord Uffington persuaded
the regimental doctor to recommend him
for leave to go to London and see the
dentist, on the ground that he had de-

out her In his flight he was accompanied
by rather dissipated young brother officer
and the pair OF them travelled on bicycles.
The Washington times., 1922-04-23

Lord Uffington's extravagances had
been so great that his family would
only give him limited allowance, and not
a penny more when that was spent This
was why it happened that when he arrived
in Birmingham and found his charmer he
was almost penniless. He and his brother
officer were obliged to sleep out at night
in public park in order to exc out their
few remaining pennies for food and an
occasional drink.
Lord Uffington's financial condition, of
course, was not one to please a chorus
girl. She expected something more than
the unremunerative pleasure of meeting
Niscount and chatting with him. Her ap-
petite for chicken patties and champagne
was keen, and she let him know It,
Lord Ellington was desperate and he
felt that he must do something to show
his devotion. He dropped into a drug
store and asked for a penny tablet of
sample soap, which they were selling as
an advertisement. While the druggists
back was turned it is alleged that the Wis
count somehow came into possession of a
large bottle of strong perfume which he
slipped into his ample khaki pocket.
He presented the bottle of perfume to
the chorus girl, who was touched by this
mark of devotion. When her company
took her away to Liverpool the Viscount
followed her on his bicycle. There he was
met by his noble fathers agent, who had
been despatched on clue to run him
down.
A few minutes after this meeting he
was placed under arrest and escorted back
to the barracks and placed in confinement
A court OF enquiry was once more sum
moned to sit upon him. In consequence of
their verdict he was shipped to Bermuda
where 1t was thought he would have less
opportunity for dissipation. But even on
the steamship going from New York to
Bermuda he made himself conspicuous by
climbing up the smoke-stack and doing
other things that annoyed the captain.

THE new Earl of Craven, whose mother
was the great American heiress,
Miss Bradley Martin, has easily
established his reputation as the gayest
young nobleman in England.
II was not enough for the young Earl TO
elope and marry penniless beauty when
he was only eighteen years old. This year
when he was but twenty-five, he gave the
elderly Earl Cathcart occasion to divorce
his young wife, who is often called the
most beautiful woman in England.
At twenty-five he has become notorious
in connection with gambling episodes
wild extravagances, public escapades and
divorce court proceedings. If he has done
all this at twenty-five, what will he be like
when he is mddle-aged man, satiated
with the rather crude escapades that have
amused his youth?
Young Viscount Uffington-that was the
title borne by the young man while his
father, the Earl of Craven, was living
began to give his family serious concern
when he was schoolbOy at Eton, the
favorite school of the British aristocracy.
He and three other schoolboys made
themselves conspicuous by their hilarious
behavior outside Windsor Castle in an old
fashioned four.wheeled cab. This episode
was too much for the school, that was
founded 400 years ago by King Henry VI,
and he was requested to find some other
field OF activity.
After this he was sent to a school at
Eastbourne, where they were less particu
lar Here he soon resumed his wild tricks.
This town was dependent on old-fashoned
gas lamp posts, each of which has to be
lighted separately by a lamplighter with
a long pole.
One evening, after Lord Ellington had
been dining out and was fashionably at
tired in silk hat and evening clothes, it
occurred to him that he would like to see
the town in darkness. He began to climb
ne lanpposts with great agility and turn
the -hts out.
He Has caught in the very act of turn
ine or a light by detective His lord
ship Kindly offered to light the lamps
again Aut the offer was sternly refused
and b. E as arrested. The next morning
he was brought into court and fined 81
for his pIank. That was his first appear
auoo 10 a1lrt.
His .bNy then decided that the stern
dis.jplia- "a the British army was the only
hing that could keep Lord Uffington in
order. With some difficulty a commission
was found for him in the special reserve
of the Hampshire Regiment kind of
militia regiment that required very little
academic or other qualifications from its
The Washington times., 1922-04-23

The elderly Lord Cathcart was amazed
by his wites sudden departure from home
without explanation. He understood what
had happened when he picked up a weekly
newspaper and saw a snapshot of his wife
and young Lord Ellington at Deauville,
looking as il they were enjoying them
selves enormously. Deauville is notorious
as the most extravagant place in the
world, where the principal amusement is
gambling and all the Ten Commandments
are freely broken.
A stewardess gave evidence that in
crossing the English Channel Lord Ufr-
ington and Lady Cathcart occupied the

officers. Although every.
thing was made very easy
and comfortable in this regi-
ment for the young heir OF
titles and millions. his ten
dency to indulge in sprees
was too marked to be alto
gether overlooked.
One evening Lord Uffing-
ton broke up the performance
at a theatre in Ryde, Isle OF
Wight, where his regiment
was stationed. He occupied
a box, from which he threw
eggs at an actor he didn't like

Bradley Martin While there he accident
ally met Miss Marjorie George, daughter
Of the town clerk of Tnvergordon. She was
a remarkably beautiful young woman and
Lord Uffington fell in love with her on the
spot and persuaded her to marry him
Marjorie George was the daughter of a
mddle-class Scotchman OF moderate
means She was therefore not the kind of
girl the heir to an ancient eardom, with
American multimillonaire relatives,
would be expected to marry. It was what
is called a mesallance But the Earl and
Countess of Craven took the matter philo-
sophcally.
The honeymoon was scarcely over when
tho young lord was hurried away to
France There he was terribly wounded
and for time not expected to recover.
He lost one leg and his right arm was
badly shattered His remarkable vitality
pulled him through.
When the war was over Lord Uffington
INDUCED in the luxury OF going through
the bankruptcy court. His father thought
that he had paid up all his debts, but
there were a few which the young man
did not care to mention and through these
he was made a bankrupt. The debts
amounted to $4,000, and included the cost
of a motor, $4,000, which he had lost in a
smash-up, and some gambling debts.
II might have been expected that the
many exciting experiences Lord Uffington
had passed through the loss Of his leg and
other injuries would have sobered him,
hut that was far from being the case.

same stateroom together and that IN
order to make himself thoroughly at
home his lordship left his artificial leg
on the table. The truant couple did
not defend the suit and Lord Cathcart
obtained his divorce.
Some expectation was entertained
that in accordance with a pretty gen.
eral custom Lord Uffington-now Lord
Craven-would marry Lady Cathcart
as soon as the law permitted. But that
is not yet certain. For one thing, it
depends on the course followed by the
present Lady Craven, the former
Scotch lassie.
The happiness of gay Lord Ellington
with his romantically won young bride did
not last more than few months. On the
very night when his little son and heir
was born It is said that he was entertain
ing party of gay companions, including
two girls from the Gaiety Theatre, at the
Savoy Hotel. II is further stated that he
refused to return home to his wife when
urgently requested to do so.
Last year II was announced that the
ton !. but she has not yet done so and other
events have complicated the situation
Just when Lord Uffington's affair with
Lady Cathcart was becoming notorious
his father, the Earl OF Craven, a man in
the prime Of life mysteriously fell off his
anchored yacht in the Solent and was
drowned. This made the gay Lord Uffing
ton Earl OF Craven.
Now the Scotch town clerks daughter
is Countess Of Craven and is mother Of
the future Earl of Craven. She has a
right to share in her husbands houses and
fortune. His grandmother, the immensely
wealthy Mrs Bradley Martin, died during
the war leaving her fortune to her son
and daughter, new the Dowager Countess
Of Craven. The latter's share, of course
will pass to the young Earl
Why should the young Countess divorce
her gay husband and give him liberty to
do as he pleases?
