Thomas F. Walshes, who had been making . spectacular splurge in Wash- ington. Walsh was the owner of the Camp Bird Mine," in Colorado, and his enormous wealth was proverbial.

Always much sought after, with many gallant cavaliers in her train. about a year ago it was noted that sha was quite frequently seen in public with the mature, but still dashing. Prince Engalitcheff.
 The courtly. gray-haired Prince had gained some attention as a matri- monialist, since he had been twice married. He has long been familiar figure in society from Paris to Chicago. His first wife was Mrs. Pardridge- Clayton, distinguished figure of the Chicago "400," once known as the most beautiful woman in the Middle West. while he later became the hus- band of tho Baroness Melanie de Luyteuil, of Paris. Decausse of the Princes importance in this narrative some facts about his background will be given.
 His marriage to lovely Evelyn Par dridge was sensation, but the divorce which came . number of years later was q greater one. The Prince had been Russian vice-consul in Chicago; Evelyn was the daughter of Charles w. Partridge, the grain king.
 Two years after the Princess Evelyn obtained her divorce she startled and

n EC1PE for . modern romantic N mystery story:
 Take one tremendously rich "Silver Queen," with m income com puted at &1,000 . day, and two dis tinguished princes of tho blood; mix with rumor, prediction and specula- tion; then salt with determined match making.
 The result-at least New York so- ciety found it so-forms one of the tastiest of conversational dishes, even if the matchmaking comes to nothing.
 The three principals in situation which set tho smart set chattering are Mrs. Emery Holmes, stately, distin- guished, white haired window, of Utah; Prince Nicholas Engalitcheff, scion of one of Russia's most eminent families, and Prince Dadiani, of Georgia, from which country came also the two Princes Mdivani, husbands of Pola Negri and Mae Murray.
 And the question to which some of Mrs. Holmes's friends demanded-with scant success-an answer was: (Which of these royal suitors, if suitors they be, will win out in the contest for beautiful Mrs. Holmes's heart. hand and fortune?"
 That you may better get the flavor of this stubborn attempt on the part of certain society acquaintances to marry off Mrs. Holmes to one or the other of the noblemen. let us consider the dramatic, but today half-forgotten. youth of the "Silver Queen"
 Born and christened Susana Brans- ford. as . girl she met and was charmed by an impecunious, but TO. mantle, prospector, Richard Emery, in Salt Lake City. While "Dick" tramped the Western hills eagerly seeking 'pay dirt" little Susanna sat in . modest millinery shop, fashioning bonnets for the Utah social leaders. At last 'Dick" struck the rich vein of ore he had been seeking. The "Silver King Mine," his discovery, poured forth riches upon him.
 Knowledge of his sudden wealth lent him the courage he had hitherto lacked to ask Susanna to marry him. Becoming Emery's bride, she entered . new and glittering phase of her ex- istence.
 Travel, literature, music, art, the drama, gorgeous clothes and prominent friends-these were the allurements which her husbands fortune spread out before her, fan-wise. The timid, unpretentious milliner blossomed speedily into an imposing lady, witty, aggressive and full of personality. and people were beginning to talk, the country over, about "thoss astonishing Emerys," when "Dick" died.
 For . while his widow was incon- solabls. But with the fleet passage of time, she was importunsd to wed by Colonel C. w. Holmes, Detroit mag nate, with Utah holdings, and she eventually consented to become his bride. But to hallow the revered memory of her first mate, she insisted that the surnames of both husbands be linked by . hyphsn: hence her prssent-day cognomen.
 Colonel Holmes bought for his wife the famed Amelia palace in Salt Lake and with the expenditure of . fortune transformed it into one of the most ex- quisite show places on the continent. sMrs. Emery Holmes caused some- thing of . sensation when, in 1902, she invaded the national capital, flanked by her money bags. News papers of the period saw in her visit n effort to sutshins socially the

 Here is his method: He lets the flake fall on a black velvet-covered board, then holding his warm breath, lest it make the crystal melt, he takes a sharp-polnted splint, gently lifts the flake from its resting place and re- moves it to a glass slide. A hasty glance through the microscope tells him whether it is beautifully formed crystal or scientifically interesting. If 50, it is swiftly "shot' against 2 sky

 Perhaps the greatest personal trag- edy in the Professors career was the time when the most beautiful of all the 4,600 snowAakes he had ever seen melted before he could snap the shut ter on it. It is told that this disap- pointment made him shed bitter tears.
 There are two rough classifcations of snow crystals, the superfne and the coarse. The artistic crystalline variety sometimes are punched in flight by the trillion and at other times fly singly. The coarse variety takes the form of small snowballs about the size of granulated sugar.
 No two snowfakes are ever shaped or ornamented precisely alike: Some times the patterns are similar, but there is always some subtle difference. Study these differences for yourself .in the accompanying photographs. The variety will surprise you.

HIS SECOND WIFE Baroness Melapie

Ensaliteheff Married After Evelyn Pardridge Divorced Him. Nots the
 Lorgnon and Ornate MuH. attended the reception reported that he did not appear.
 If the society gossips up and down Park Avenue had been stirred before as they scented romance between Engalitcheff and the "Silver Queen," now they were both bewildered and moved to deeper state of excite ment.
 This appeared in the form of an. other article by MT. Benedick, who discovered some evidence that he be. lieved pointed to the fact that Prince Engalitcheff was not divorced from his second wife and therefore could not be suitor for the hand of Mrs. Emery-Holmes. The publication of this bombshell threw the blueblood gossips out once more.
 Engalitcheff's own version of his marital status. as given to a reporter from this paper, is highly interesting. He said he had never been formally divorced from his second wife, the former Baroness de Luyteuil, because it wasn't necessary. Asked to explain further, he said that as he and the Baroness were married by a civil cere- mony in Paris, and not . religious service in the Russian Orthodox Church (similiar to the ceremony per formed at his first marriage) he had never been legally married.
 "Why try to annul condition that does not exist?" was the Princes way of putting it.
 Leaving this legal tangle to other heads to interpret, the society gossips sat back and waited to see what would happen next in the efforts to make our s1.0O0-a-day "Silver Queen." . princess. The denouemen was:

 The animals are shipped in crates, usually holding two foxes, and measuring two feet by four by two. One express cat holds about l5O crates, piled two deep. The eX- press rate on live foxes is one and lone-half times th- first-class rate, and insurance charges total five percent of the value of the animal.
