Quebec, July 24. Glorious weather attended the military review and the ceremony attending the dedication of the plains of Abraham as a national battlefleld's park. The prince of Wales and Lord Roberts rode out to the plains together. They were constantly acclaimed, the commander-in-chief sharing honors with the prince. At the review 5,000 to 6.000 men from

the different ships iji the port and 12,000 troops marched past the review stand. First in the line of march were the sailors from the French ships, who were given that position as a compliment to the French founders of the country. The second place was given to men from the United States war.ship New Hampshire. Then came a number of men from the British ships, after which came the military organizations, including two Canadian regi

ments, of which Lord Roberts la honorary colonel. The dedication of the battlefields was an informal affair. The prince of Wales handed over a sum of $450,000 to the governor general, which he said had been intrusted to him through the patriotism of the British citizens of Canada and the empire and the generosity of French and American sympathizers, in order that the historic battlefields might be acquired as pub-

aids, a cousin of Pierre Lorillard, the millionaire tobacco man. She lived eight years with her husband and they had four children. Then they decided that they were uncongenial and separated. It was not until a few years ago. however, that they were divorced.

Mrs. Ronalds went abroad after the sepration and played a brilliant part In the court life of Napoleon I Ill's unhappy rule, and with the fall of that feeble dynasty, went over to London to dominate a second capital. Her wit and grace, no less than her artistic talent

and Infinite tact, have given her a power In London society, the Influence of which It Is hard to estimate.
