Last year was not much to the liking of the Prohibitionists but this is a great year for the wets'.

The Duke of Portland's horse won the great prize yesterday. The duke's wealth is almost fabulous, his horses win all the big purses and he himself is to wed a famous beauty. To him that hath all things come easy, as it were.

The European war rumors have started in again, labeled, as usual, "fresh." They will become stale in a few weeks and then be dropped for a year or so. In the meantime the cable man might give as some really interesting and useful information about MiBS Chamberlain's trousseau or Mary Anderson's health. It will be time enough for war news when the lighting begins. When not at war we prefer to be with the ladies.

Dun's weekly review speaks of the industrial condition of the country as without precedent at this time of the year. It is undisputed that a smaller number of men have been affected by labor troubles in the first six months of 1889 than in the comparative period in any year in the past decade. Yet the free traders continue their wailing that the country is going to the bow-wows because the tariff is grinding the people down to poverty.

Virginia Republicans are "getting together." If they stick close and fight hard they will haye little trouble in placing Virginia in the Republican column. The state by rights belongs to the Republican party. Its vote, as also that of Tennessee, was cast for the Republican electors last fall, and would have been counted for them if the party managers had been lesB engaged in their efforts to secure factional and local results.

The New York Sun cannot see much bravery in the much heralded attack of Senator Blackburn on Senator Chandler in a senate committee room last fall and remarks:

Suppose Senator Blackburn really twisted Senator Chandler's ear. Was It a creditable, courageous, or manly act? May not anyone be made the victim of a sudden and unexpected attack of a similar character? Does It degrade him to have thus been taken at a disadvantage, when fortunately ror his assidlant he was unarmed and Inferior In strength to the man by whom he was attacked? No, It does not. If Senator Blackburn really committed such an assault, It Is an act of which he anil his friends ought to be heartily ashamed.

Kentucky Is progressing. A "fete" was given last Saturday at McKlbben's school house, In that state. The festivities were somewhat marred by Henry Patterson plugging Joe Butler live times with a 48-cailber Smith «.t Wessen, but the fete remains a fact Just the same.

EXCHANGE ECHOES.

Detroit 'ree Press: An old proverb runs: "Poor men for children rich men for luck."' The average English taxpayer who helps support the brood of royal iiedgllngs must believe that the riches, children and all the luck but the "hard luck" have got together.

Birmingham, (Ala.) Age Herald: We are all ashamed that the Sullivan-Ktlraln prize mill was permitted to take place In the South, and when we read the animadversions of the Northern papers on this section on that score we haven't got anything to say, because we feel that It is in a manner justilled.

Nashville American: We are not quarreling with Judge McAllster's decision, though we believe that the governor's position In regard to misdemeanors fa rather too broadly stated, and we do not doubt that If requisition had been made upon htm he would not have hesitated to turn Mr. Sullivan over to the Mississippi authorities.

Philadelphia Inquirer: Now that Governor Lowry has got down to business and Is doing something practical through the authorities of other states, he should receive all encouragement and possible support No technicality of the law ought to be used to enable th« brutes to escape a proper punishment lor their defiance of the law.

SUBJECTS WEDDED TO ROYALTIES.

Long before this reaches you, writes the London correspondent of the New York Sun, the telegraph will have told you of the engagement between Alexander William George Duff, earl of Fife, Viscount MacDuff, Baron Skene and Braco, and Louise Victoria Alexandra Dagmar, eldest daughter of the prince •f Wales and granddaughter of

The expectant nearly 40 yeaia about half-way is

Queen Victoria. bridegroom is old the bride to-be through her 23d year. Lord Fife is lord lieutenant of Elginshire Ije was once captain of the corps of gentlemen at arms, and has been employed on a special mission to a second-rate European power: he has sat in "parliament, and is now a Liberal Unionist, He has large estates in Scotland, and, above all, he is a partner in the banking house of Sir Samuel Scott, Bart., & Co., London. His title is

IriBh,

he himself is a Scotchman,

and he is popularly supposed to be descended from Macduff, Thane of Fife, who disposed of Macbeth. As Burke's peerage, the Englishman's Bible doesn't claim for him any ancestry more remote than 1404, it is probable that popular supposition is at least 400 years wrong.

The bride is the eldest daughter of the prince of Wales she has two brothere older than herself, one of whom is known as "Collars and Cuffs," while the other isn't. She Is a lady of the Imperial Order of the Crown of India, and distant from the crown only three lives. Stranger things have (happened than that she should ascend the throne as queen. The marriage is said to be one of love.

The marriages of sons and daughters of the reigning sovereigns of Great Britain to subjects is by no means so unusual as many pereons imagine. In fact, it is only since the present German family has been on the British throne that such marriages have fallen out of custom. From the time of the conquest down to the midde of last century princes and princesses of reigning families, almost more often than otherwise, wedded subjects.

Adela, daughter of William the Conqueror, called "the friend of the poor," married Stephen, count of Blois her son was that Stephen who gave the unfortunate Empress Maud, known in England as Queen Matilda, BO much trouble. He became king of England, and goes down to history BB the King Stephen who "was a worthy peer, His breeches cost him half a crowiK he held them sixpence'all too dear, With that he called the tailor 'lown.'" It is refreshing to know that tailors were as troublesome in the reign of Stephen as they are to-day. It is a touch of nature that makes Stephen's dark reign seem very close to Victoria's.

Prince John, who later became king of England, married Isabel, daughter of William, earl of Gloucester but he was divorced from her because of consanguinity, his great grandfather, Henry I., being also her great grandfather. Shakespeare's Constance, the starless mother of the little Prince Arthur, was the daughter of Conan le petit, duke of Brittany and earl of Richmond, when Geoffrey, the second son of Henry II., took her to wife.

Two children of King John, after his death, married subjects. Richard, earl of Cornwall, the richest prince in Christendom, who bought by his gold an election as king of the Romans, and is sometimes known as emperor of Germany, married Isabel, daughter of William Marshall, earl of Pembroke. The Princess Eleanor married first that same William Marshall, thus becoming moth-er-in-law to ker brother, and second, Simon de Montfort, earl of Leicester, who defeated and took prisoner that brother at the battle of Lewes, in 12G4.

While Henry III. sat on the throne his son, Edmond, earl of Lancaster, married Avelina, daughter of William, earl of Albemarle. While Edward I. reigned the Princess Joan married first Gilbert de Clare, earl of Gloucester and Hereford, and second, Ralph de Monthermer, earl of Gloucester and Herts. Edward's second daughter, the Princess Elizabeth, married for a second husband Humphrey de Bohun, earl of Hereford and Essex from this marriage descend the great houses of Ormonde and Devon.

Two sons of Edward I., after their father's death, married subjects. Thomas of Brotherton, earl of Norfolk, married Alice, daughter of Sir Roger Halys their daughter was the ancestress of the present families of Mowbray and Petre. Edmond, of Woodstock, earl of Kent, married Margaret, daughter of John, Lord Wake.

No fewer than six of the children of Edward III. married subjects, four of them during their father's life. The procession was begun by Edward, prince of Wales, the Black Prince. He married Joan, called the Fair Maid of Kent, daughter of Edmond of Woodstock. She must have had the same sort of beauty that Helen of Troy possessed, for the Black Prince was her third husband. Her first husband was William Mountacute, earl of Salisbury, and her marriage with him was dissolved, her second was Sir Thomas Holland, and her third the gallant prince who never became king.

Lionel, of Antwerp, married a daughter of William, earl of Ulster, while two of the three marriages of John of Gaunt, Shakespeare's "time-honored Lancaster," were with subjects. His first wife was Blanche, youngest daughter of Henry Plantagenet, duke of Lancaster his second wife was the eldest daughter of the king of Castle and Lson. For his third wife he married Dame Catharine Swynford, widow of Sir Otes Swynford she had been his mistress. She was the aister of Chaucer's wife. Since this time no English prince has came so near being a literary man as did John of Gaunt.

Thomas, duke of Gloucester, married a daughter of Humphrey de Bohun, earl of Hereford. The Princess Isabel married Ingelram le Brun de Coucy, earl of Bedford, and the Princess Margaret married John Hastings, earl of Pembroke.

Edward, prince of Wales, the luckless Bon of Henry VI., married Anne Nevill, daughter of Richard, earl of Warwick. After his death she married Richard, duke of Gloucester, afterward Richard III., who, according to Shakespeare, was one of her first husband's actual murderers. •One of the bravest of the Lancastrians to fall in the battle of St. Albans, fought February 17th, 1461, was Sir John Grey of Groby. He left a widow, the beautiful Elizabeth Woodville, and several children. The widow returned to her father's home, impoverished by the confiscation of her husband's estates, which followed the final victory of the Yorkists. At her father's house, at Grafton, she lived for three years. To Grafton came one day, a-hunting, the king, Edward IV., the head of the Yorkists, fighting against whom Sir John had fallen. He chanced to come to Sir ichard Woodville's house, ahd there he saw the lovely Widow Gray. The king had therefore lived a riotous life Jane Shore

was not his only favorite but he fell in love with the fair Elizabeth, and they were secretly married. The "marriage was announced late in the year 1464, and was the cause of the rebellion of the earl of Wftrwick«

Three of the children of this romantic couple, the Princesses Cicely, Anne, and Katharine, married subjects after the king's death.

Four of the six queens of Bluff King Hal were subjects when the "Defender of the Faith" seated them insecurely by his side. Anne Bullen was the daughter of Sir Thomas Bullen, a nobleman of good family, not remotely connected with the royal family. Jqpe Seymour was the daughter of Sir John Seymour, and like her predecessor, had been maid of honor to the wife whom she supplanted. Catharine Howard was the daughter of Lord Edmund Howard, son of the duke of Norfolk, and Catharine Parr was the twice widowed daughter of Sir Thomas Parr. She married first Edward Burghe, and then John Neville, Lord Latimer.

The two sisters of Henry VIII., after the deaths of their royal husbands, married subjects Margaret, queen of Scotland, married Archibald, earl of Angus, and lived most miserably with him Mary, queen of France, married Charles Brandon, duke of Suffolk, the handsomest man in England.

While James was still duke of York, before the merry monarch had left "poor Nelly" behind him, he married Anne, daughter of Edward Hyde, earl of Clarendon and the two princesses, Mary and Anne, who successively became queens of England, were daughters of a subject as well as a wife.

Two brothers of George III. married subjects. The elder, William Henry, duke of Gloucester, married Maria Walpole, countess dowager of Waldegrave, the illigetimate daughter of Sir Edward Walpole. Henry Frederick, duke of Cumberland, another brother ofa the king, married Anne, daughter of Simon Luttrell, Lord Irnham, and widow of Christopher Horton, Esq.

For a hundred years and more none of the foreigners, who composed the royal house of Great Britain, deigned to marry one of their English subjects, unless wa include the reported secret marriage of the Princess Amelia,-youngest daughter of George III., to an officer in the army. Finally in 1871 the Princess Louise, of Great Britain, married John Campbell, eldest Bon of the Scottish duke of Argyll, called by courtesy marquis of Lome. A story current at the time of this last marriage shows how the Scotch regarded a match which the royal family considered a mesalliance: Two Scotchmen meet: "Sawney, hev' ye'll heer'd th' noos?" "No, Tonal what is't?" "Aweel, th' son o' the Maccallum More's marnet wi' th' queen's young tochter!" "Hech! th' queen maun be a prood woman!"

The marquis and marchioness of Lome have no children. They have a charming cottage near Tunbridge Wells, and when in town live in Kensington palace. The Princess Louise maintains a "household," consisting at present of one equerry. The income of the future duke of Argyle is not large, and it is hardly even an open secret that he is not so thoroughly happy as he might have been had he not married into the royal family.

The earl of Fife, it is said, has stipulated that his countess shall be his wife in more than name, and that she shall not maintain the "household" of a royal princess unless her chances of mounting the throne are greater than they are now. Until that time, when the Princess Louise of Wales marries him, she shall be the countess of Fife firet and princess afterward.

.... (J. B. BLANCMAKD. That Great Railway Scheme.

NEW YORK, July 19.—A special to the Herald from Boston says: No one in Boston knows any thing about the wonderful $700,000,000 railroad consolidation scheme which is sprung upon the public to-day. The few railroad officials who were to be found described it as a device to boom Hartford & Connecticut Western

President Phillips, of

the Fithburg road, as well as others, expressed the opinion that the scheme would be a grand thing for Boston, but no one regarded it so last night. The officers of the lines alleged to be concerned—the Union Pacific, North Pacific and Canadian Pacific—laughed at the idea.

NEW QUISTION IN 1NSUSANCIC.

Most Companies Fay, the Coat Where Claims are Arbitrated

Reese Hammond, by Davis A Martz, is preparing to bring a suit against an insurance company that will be taken to the supreme court in order to test a

Cy

oint that will be watched with interest all insurance men, says the Indianapolis News. Hammond had his barn insured for $1,000. The barn was burned, and the company offered to settle for $700. This was refused by Hammond. Under the policy, in case of disagreement all differences must be settled by arbitrators. The was done and Hammond had to pay his representative $25. He will now bring suit to recover the $25 from the insurance company, claiming that he had paid all the demands according to his policy and should not be compelled to pay more than the stipulated charges. A Chicago insurance man who is here says this is anew question, and one in which every insurance company will be greatly interested in having the principle involved determined. If the Supreme court decides the companies must pay all expenses of arbitration it will add a very heavy expense on them in the aggregate.

HAVE COMB TO A HALT.

A Railroad Company Objects to the Removal of the Moinence Bock.

The commissioners appointed by the governor to superintend the removal of the limestone ledge in the Kankakee river at Momence, 111., met yesterday afternoon, at Indianapolis, and announced that they had completed the planB in connection with the survey, and were ready to contract for the work.

Owing, however, to some serious and unexpected obstacles interposed by the Chicago & Eastern Illinois railroad the commissioners decided not to go ahead and ask for bids. The difficulty related to the removal of the dam in the river at Momence, and the right of way under the track of the railroad at that point. There are certain questions involved in the improvement which can only be settled by the parties from whom the rights of way to the state were obtained. Until these objections are removed no further steps will be taken by the commissioners.

The railroad company claim that the improvement would damage them to the extent of 130,000, and ask that the state indemnify them for the loss before work begins.

UNDKB THE NEW LAW.

Hanging of Albert ltulow at Utile Falls. Minn., This Morning.

LIT TLK FALLS, Minn., July 19.—Albert Bulow was hanged at 1:48 a. m., to-day in accordance with the new state law which prescribes that executions shall talra place between the houra of 1 and la. m. The law limits the number of persons who shall witness the execution, and there were only thirteen persons inside the inclosure when the drop fell. Bulow met death bravely, and maae no confession. The law provides that newspapers shall publish only the bare announcement of hangings, but all the Minneapolis and St. Paul papers contain full details of Buiow's execution. [The crime for which Albert Bulow suffered death was the murder, on November 23 last, of Frank Blch. The crime was committed near the village of Royal ton, Minn. On Saturday, November 24, 1888, James Blch, a well-known farmer OT St Wendel, Stearns county, went to St. Cloud and notified the officials of the murder of his brother Frank, near Royal ton. The murdered man had about fifty dollars on his person when he left Koyalton with a team for his farm, near Buckman. A man had been around with him all day. and when he started Etch took him to ride with him. It was supposed that when about a mile and a half from town the stranger shot and robbed Klch. A boy driving along the road found the body In the brush, near the road, with a bullet-hole through the head. Suspicion was at once directed toward Albert Bulow, a man who formerly worked for Klch. He was traced to Verndale. and arrested there the following Tuesday. Bulow made a confession, In which he stated that he had worked for Eich, who owed him $60, which he refused to pay, and In the quarrel which ensued he had shot him. His trial was uneventful. On March 7, he pleaded guilty to the charge of the Indictmentmurder In the first degree—and on March 9 he was sentenced to be hanged by Judge Searle.

ACCIDENT ON HIE BIG FOUR.

Running Away From Loose Freight Cars a Fright Runs Into a Passenger.

INDIANAFOLIS, July 19.—At 9:30 last night near New Point, on the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, St. Louie & Chicago railroad, a serious collision occurred. An east-bound freight train broke in two a few miles south of Greensburg. The train was descending a grade, and the engineer put on steam to run away from the wild cars behind him. He hoped to reach Batesville, where he could put his train on a

Biding

and open a

switch and turn the wild cars from the main track. The west bound night express passed Batesville before the freight reached that point and the trains came in collision with great force. The engine men jumped and escaped with slight injuries. A tramp named McDonald was killed, and F. O. Ketcham, a poBtal clerk residing in this city, was seriously injured. He is crushed about the chest and abdomen and is unable to speak. The track was not cleared until late this afternoon.

Frenzied at the sight of blood he continued his assault until ten fearful wounds had been inflicted, any of which would have proved fatal. Freedman boarded an outgoing freight, but was thrown off the train, captured and committed to jail.
