QUEEN" LIVED HERE.
Was Born in Richmond and Came Here
in GirlhOOd.

The death of the Duke of Vendome
leaves Prince Charles Philippe as the
ostensible head of the Bourbon family
of France and hence a pretender to the
defunct throne. AS the wife of Prince
Charles Philippe, the former Peggy
Watson, radiant blonde, of this city
becomes the pretending queen"
Duchess Peggy's marriage to Prince
Charles Philippe, the Duke of Nemours,
in 1923 aroused international interest.
The union is said to have met with dis
favor at first from the dukes family,
but the difficulties were ironed out, and
the American duchess became extremely
popular with royalty abroad.
The duchess has many friends here,
where she lived from the age of years.
She was born in Richmond, Va, the
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Carrot F.
Watson. She first met her husband at
a dinner party at friends home in
Paris
Prince Charles Philippe, presumably,
will inherit all the Bourbon riches, in
Guiding five valuable European estates.
Among the latter are the Chateau Bel
mont, at Wimbledon, suburb of Lon
don; the Chateau de st. Michel at
Cannes and the sumptuouS former
royal castle near Neuilly.

Want to Look Young?

The secret of keeping young is to
feel yiung-tO do this you must watch
your liver and bowels - there's no
need of having a salIOw complexion
dark rings under your eyeS-pimpleS
Ia bilious look in your face-dull
eyes with no sparkle. Your doctor will
tell you ninety per cent of all sickness
comes from inactive bowels and liver.
DIR. Edwards, a weII-known ply
Sician in Ohio, perfected vegetable
compound as substitute for caIOmel
to act on the liver and bowels, which
he gave to his patients for years.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets are
gentle in their action yet always eff
fective. They help bring about that
natural buOyancy which all should
enjoy by toning up the liver and
clearing the system of impurities.
DIR. Edwards Olive Tablets are
known by their olive color. 15c, soc,

ADVANCE IN BOND
. PRICES CONTINUES
Expected Agreement on Hoo.
yer Debt Holiday Plan
Aids Securities.
By r. Fl. RICHARDSON.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. July 3.-Bonds moved
substantially higher today in trading
that was only moderately active.
Overnight news from abroad was con-
strued favorably and the Berlin and
London markets reflected an almost
universally held opinion that the week
end will see Paris and Washington ir
agreement on the Hoover debt holiday
plan.
The political news, however. merely
served as a background for other IA.
vorable developments. The fact that
no important interruption in debt serv-
ice took place at the half-year turn In
the South American group, along with
new assurance that Argentina, Brazil
and Colombia have improved their
financial positions, brought a broad up
turn in the South American group
Argentine IS gained about points to
equal their previous highs on the re-
covery. Brazil 6l2s gained more than
4 points. Colombian IS were a point
or more higher. Uruguyan Is gained q
point.
The only exception was the Chilean
group. The position of the Chile gov
ernment's finances, pending the final
disposition of the Cosach nitrate prop
critics, has been admittedly impaired,
and while New York bankers have re-
assured holders of Chile's dollar bonds,
Chilean exchange has had a weak tone
Chile 6s were off over a point at one
time today. though there were signs OF
support on dips.
German Government 51as gained 2
points at the start Dawes Repara-
re ll,, III \
vances Of to points occurred in
German Central Bank Descriptions,
German municipalS, and industrials
such as United Steel Works 6i1s and
Siemens 81 Halske 6las and rs. Other
Europeans were quiet but firm.
In the domestic list junior railroad
issues advanced on a broad front and
net gains ranged from / to 4 points.
New high levels for the recovery were
made in Erie General Lien As, Erie IS.
Nickel Plate AIS. st. Paul SIS, Mis-
souri-Pacific SIS, Missouri Pacific Gen.
eral As, Southern Railway As, Southern
Pacific AIS of 1881, Rock Island con-
vertible AIS and Chicago & North
western convertible 4%s. st. Louis-San
Francisco prior lien As and General
AIS improved sharply on the roads
trafflc reports and increased traffic
prospects.
Industrials. too, were strong. United
States Rubber SIS sold at 10 for the
first time on the current recovery. War
ner Bros. Pictures IS and other amuse-
ment company bonds were higher. Oil
company issues, such as Shell Union
Oil SIS, gained a point or more. Some
of the junior public utilities. among
them international Telephone 412s and
IS and Postal Telegraph SIS, had sub
stantial advances.

or since November. 1929. The number
Of failures for June was the smallest
since September last.
Money for Fourth.
Banks all over the United States are
preparing for Withdrawals by the pub
lie to celebrate the Fourth of July
These Withdrawals have already begun
and banks are reporting heavy demands
for currency. Fortunately the banks are
In position to meet this drain and the
mon.y will return to them anyway later
on this month. Last year the public
withdrew about $120, 900, 900 to celebrat e
independence day and this year the
total is expected to be about the same.
The demand for holiday currency fol-
lows huge payments of dividends and
interest by corporations on July /. To-
tai OF such payments is estimated
around $950,000,0 900.
Sugar Prices Higher.
Prices of refined sugar were advanced
yesterday, rejecting the rise in raw
sugar. The Pennsylvania Sugar REIN
ing Co. advanced refined 10 points to
465 cents pound. Similar advances
were made by the National Sugar Re-
timing Co.. the Revere Sugar Refining
Co., the GodchauX Sugars, Inc; the
California & Hawaiian Sugar Refining
Corporation and the Western Sugar
Refinery. Arbuckle Bros. on Tuesday
purchased a cargo of raw sugar at 345
cents duty-paid basis. This is the
high price of the year to date. The
previous top was 3.42 cents, established
in January.
Gasoline Price Reduced.
The Standard Oil Co. of New York
has reduced service station and tank
wagon price of gasoline at Syracuse
2.8 cents a gallon, making the serv-
ice station price IL cents gallon and
tank wagon price 10 cents gallon
not including the State tax. At Buff
falo and Rochester the company re-
duced service station and tank wagon
prices 2 cents gallon.
Auto Sales.
r. H. Faulkner, president of the
Auburn Automobile Co., said that re-
tail sales in June substantially exceed
ed factory shipments. Stocks of cars
in distributors and dealers hands have
been materially reduced. Mr. Faulkner
added that reports indicate that dealer
inventory Is less than 5000 cars, or
an average of about 2l2 cars per
dealer. Shipments of 1880 cars fer
the six months of the calendar year
to June 80 were more than double the
shipments in the entire year 1880 and
5,193 more than shipments in the en-
tire year Of 1929.

BY the Associated Press.
ALBANY, N. Y, August 5. - Gov.
Roosevelt yesterday dismissed charges of
incompetency and dishonesty brought
against George U, Eservey, Queens Bor-
ough president, by Fritz Brieger, for
mer street commissioner of the borough.
In dismissing the charges, the Gov
erf1or said that while they did not war
rant actual removal proceedings, the
only Republican borough president in
New York City was deserving Of CEN

ted to him by Brieger "set forth e.
course OF conduct which should be in
compatible with ideals of official con-
duct" He added, however, that Grim
inal dishonesty was not demonstrated"
Brieger, In 10 specified cases. charged
Harvey's official conduct had been i'm
proper, incompetent, dishonest and
prejudical" to the citizens Of his bor-
ough. He charged the borough presi-
dent with borrowing money from an
engineering concern from which he later
recommended the purchase of a snow
melting machine for use by the city.
The Governors action followed vir-
tually the course taken by him in the
case of charges brought against Mayor

Committee last Spring. although In the
Walker case the Governor dismissed the
charges without comment on the
