A StaxtUng and Romantle Story Wkleh Is
' Important If True.
I see that the news associations have
been authorized by the Prince of Wales
to deny that the Dnke of York was mar
ried previous to his union with Princess
May of Teck. Tho Prince of Wales was
qnite right to make the denial; the
Viorning newspapers were quito right to
publish it . Permit mo to quote tbe
prince's stajtemcnt, which was issued by
his private secretary, Colonel Sir Fran
cis Knollys. Then I wish to add a rider:
London, Aug. 15. A letter signed by Sir
Francis Knoll ys, K. C. M. G one of the grooms
In walling upop tho Prince of Wales, Is pub.
1 shod today, saying that the Prlnco of Wales
directs him to say that there is not a ehadow
nf foundation for the report that the Duke of
York was married previous to his union with
Princess May of Teck. The letter odds that tho
lepoit of a previous marriago was obviously
livented to cause pain and annoyance to tho
loung couple.
There is moro than a "shadow of
proof" for tho duke's marriage there
is tho record ia tlto English church in
Malta. The inarringo took place four
years ago, when Prince Gecrge was with
tho Mediterranean squadron. At that
timo his eider brothor was living and
.was heir to tho throne. There woutd
pevcr have boon a question of tho legal
ity of tho niKrriago had not Collars nnd
Cuffs" died. His death mado tho Duko
of York Prince George, as ho was then
heir to the dignities of his grand
mother. His marriage to a commoner
was out of the question. Now, mark
the odd course of events. Tho Duko of
Clarence "Collars and CcCs" had
been betrothed for niio months to the
Priucefs May of Teck. When ho died
suddenly, his brother. Prince George,
was ordered to keep tho engagement. Ia
spite of all his resistance I19 was mar
ried to his brother's fiancee. His own
wife his morganatic wife, if yoapksaso
-forced her way into tho church oatho
wedding day and created a scandal
which was only half suppressed, tho
was his tf ifo, the mother of his two
children. Had he not been forced by
circumstances into tho direct succession
to tho throne there would havo been ro
question of the legality of that marriage
ceremony performed by . tho English
chaplain at Malta.
Cut tho woman was repudiated.
Ebe was a Miss Tryon and the niero
of onp of England's famous sailara a
man nnder whom tho "sailor prince,"
this charming Duko of York, bad learn
ed his seamanship. When Admiral Try
on learned ot tho shame cast upon h!s
name, he was half mad. The drink he
took did not mollify him. Tkoouo thing
bo could do was to kill himself, nnd ha
committed suicido by sinking the finest
man-of-war in the English navy. He
drowned hundreds of men, sank a mil
lion pound irouclad and went down
laughing drunk on tho bridge.
The Prince of Wales denies?
Kot even tho Prince of Welea can
bnrv that scandal.
Tho Duko of York's morganatio wife
bas been pensioned. She is living at
Richmond with her two children. Ia
tho latter part of June sho obeyed crfers

Thrifty Farmers Welcome tho Visitors and

A curious phenomenon occurred in
the northern portion of tho county
Thursday , afternoon. , Shortly after 8
o'clock a shower of live frogs began fall
ing. .The shower of living creatures con
tinued for five minutes and covered a 10
acre field on the farm of Ezra Willbnrn. 1
Tho frogs fell only on Mr. Willburn's
farm, and at the time they fell the sky
was cloudless. Mr. Willburn's small
son was tho only person who witnessed
the shower, and after recovering from
his surprise at such a strange occurrence
ho informed his father of tho affair.
Tho Willburns at once began catching
tho largest of the frogs and enjoyed a
regal repast of delicious hams for sup

supplied. The cause of the shower is
somewhat a mystery, although it is said
that the frogs could bare been drawn
from a distant pond by a strong whirl
wind and carried through the air to a
point over Mr. Willburn's field. -Mun-

A Holy Ghost Plant.
There has been on exhibition in front
of a Chestnut street florist's window for
some days past a very rare specimen of
the dove flower, or, as it is more fa
miliarly known, the ' "Holy Ghost
plant"' The florist claims that this
specimen has been some 15 years coin
ing to perfection, and he values it at
$C5. It is a small plant about 10 inches
high, and bears some eight or ten of the
little white flowers which, from their
remarkable resemblance to a dove with

name. The flower 1st he" Espin to ban to'

the Nile, dew falls occasionally and tho
heat becomes oppressive, owing to the
moisture.
October and November bring snow
and then a morning fog or a shower of
rain; but after that the weather be
comes pleasant and steady, snow is un

also infrequent

' The numerous reports regarding tho
ill health of the pope which have been

holiness:
"Tho health ot Io XIH," says the
doctor, "is excellent. Contrary to re

roses in the world comes from the por
tion of Europe which used to be a part
of Turkey, but which is now under Rust

to have a good crop even then, and then

more than seventy or seventy-five doU

Tho luoor of cultivation is "very ar

more so, the work being done by wom

by tho work, and whoso pay barely suf

purpose, but the return is nowhere so
