... . - .llsfcr-Severest Punishment '. ..
for Society Woman.
BY THB COUNTBSS OP BL.ANKSHIRE.
(Special Cable to the Central News and Ore
gon tan.)
LONDON,- Sept. 8. Very few people in
the United States will know that a recent
visitor there was His Grace, the Duke of
Westminster, said to be the wealthiest no
bleman in the world, and certainly one
of the youngest and most interesting. But
the Duke did not stay very long, and he
did not go outside New York. He trav
eled as Mr. Hugh R. Grosvenor, his own
family name. The Duke had a peculiar
quest in the United States, so my inform
ant says. He went over to find Mrs.
Atherton, the beautiful woman who so
recently was divorced from her husband,
Colonel of the Twelfth Lancers. I am
told he found her, and that there is now
a rather happy little party cruising in
South African waters or traveling in the
Land of Diamonds.
e
Glad the Colonel Slighted Her.
It will be remembered that a short time
ago It was announced that the beautiful
Mrs. Atherton had started for a tour of
the world via the United States under an
assumed name. This was immediately
after the sensatienal divorce case. The
Duke was very much impressed with the
lady during and after the Boer War. and
there ' was a hint or two about him in
the divorce proceedings. But Captain
the Hon. J. Yarde-Bulier was the co-respondent.
It was thought that Mrs.
Atherton had simply run away to allow
Captain Yarde-Buller time to decide
whether he would marry her or not. I
understand that he was advised strongly
not to have anything more to do with
her, and probably, now that a Duke Is
in evidence, the lady is rather more glad
than otherwise. The counsellor of young
Yarde-Buller is said to have been the
Karl of Suffolk, who married Daisy Letter.
The two men were aides-de-camp to Lord
Curzon in India and very chummy.
'
In the meantime the young Duchess of
Westminster is having a gay time of
it entertaining a large house party on
the Scottish grouse moor rented by the
Westminster family from the Duke of
Sutherland. The Duchess, who is very
young, waB formerly Sheila Cornwallis
West. She apparently has not taken the
Duke's sudden and prolonged absence
very much to heart.
Fair One Picks King's Pocket.
There has been quite a stir in royal
circles over an accident which began at
Cowes. It appears that among the
yachts present was one owned by a very
wealthy man and his wife was the live
liest of hostesses. She has for several
seasons tried to get into the King's clicle,
and whenever she has been In the pres
ence of Edward has done everything pos
sible to attract his attention. In conse
quence her name was more or less on
the blacklist. But at one of the many en
tertainments at Cowes which the King
attended she was also present. It is said
that she picked the King's pocket and
took therefrom the royal handkerchief,
replacing it with her own dainty mou
cholr with her full name upon it. At any
rate she showed a large number of peo
ple, In strictest confidence, of course,
the Klr.g's beautifully embroiderd hand
kerchief with royal monogram and all.
She declared he had given it her as a
souvenir of a sweet, stolen hour together
and so on.
Put on Edward's Blacklist.
This caused quite a flutter. And the
flutter was enhanced when an equeiry
from the King arrived with a small
packet. The lady opened it in the
presence of a score of friendB
and took from it her own hand,
kerchief. It was a blunder of the equerry
and the lady made the most of it. The
fairy tales she invented were so marvel
lous that, when they reached the ears of
Edward through his real fair favorites,
he was a wild man. It has been in
timated to the lady that her wealth is
not everything and that the presence of
her yacht at Cowes is not desired in the
future. It has also been intimated to
her that in future all houses where the
King goes will be absolutely closed to
her. This is dire punishment for a wo
man In London society. The lady In
question has left England for a few
months' tour abroad.
' Stale Joke Told Again.
The papers persist in poking fun at the
nouveau rlche American. The latest is
from the Bystander and tells the tale of
the Chicago millionaire who imported
from abroad a replica of the Venus of
Milo. When the statue arrived and the
case opened the Chicago man of course
discovered that there were no arms. He
threatened to bring an action against the
railroad company for damage. The rail
way sent an official to inquire, and he
reported that the arms were missing, and
so the company paid a round sum to the
millionaire.
DOES NOT BELIEVE IN WASHING
Italian Chemist Abhors Soap,
Sponges and Brashes as Useless.
ROME, Sept. 8. Frederic Cerbonl, a
chemist of Gelsomino, near Florence,
Is the most cheerful and remarkable
philosopher in Italy. He has never had
a bath and never washes. Soap and
water he thinks are bo much poison
and washing destroys health and shor
tens life. He is an old man and yet in
splendid health. Le Nazlone, of Flor
ence, sent a reporter to Interview him.
The old man wrote out the following
statement and signed it for publica
tion: "I am 75 years old and in the best
of health and spirits. Yet I never
wash, not even my face in the morn
ing. Five years ago a towel was placed
in my room, but it has not yet been
changed, and there Is no need of chang
ing it. I have never taken a bath, and
yet I have never been 111. I hold that
baths, washing basins, looking glasses,
brushes, soaps, sponges and all those
sort of things are so much useless
lumber. I have never lost a day's ap
petite nor a night's sleep for being
without them. Can anybody say the
same who wastes his time and money
at watering places and hydropathic
establishments? I go to bed In my
boots and wear the same clothes all
the year round.
"Being a chemist by profession, I
know something about hygiene. Hy
giene is a myth, a superstition. Mi
crobes are killed by other microbes.
That's the long and short of It."
PREACHER ACTS HIS SCBJECT
Sensational Methods of Salvationist
Attract Great Crowds.
LONDON, Sept. 8. Weird and strange
have been the freaks of the Salvation
Army from Its inception. This has been
necessary to attract attention. The latest
freak in this city, however, eclipses any
thing previously attempted. It has Its
origin with Captain - Robert Brodle of
Chlswick. Each week he intends to rep
resent some character on which be will
preach. Last week he preached on
"Death" and walked through the streets)
of his locality wrapped In a shroud and
with men carrying an empty ooffln wlUi
all its trimmings behind him.
Next week he la to be "the Twentieth!
Century Prodigal Son." Brodle will dress
in the height of fashion. At the Salva
tion hall he will have scenes painted to
show his leaving his home on the farm,
then coming to the city and a barroom
with a real live barmaid, then a theatra
and music hall. At these places Brodle
will describe what he imagines he sees
by "thinking aloud." Then comes a re
turn to the barroom and a fight. The
final scene is a meeting of the Salvation
Army on the streot, and the prodigal i
so touched that he goes to the penitent
seat and Is there reunited with his father
and mother.
Brodle claims that his sensational me
thods have jammed the hall full at every
meeting, whereas before he came it was
empty of all but Salvationists.
BRIDAL PARTY ALL ASLEEP
Strange Effect of Heat In Germany
Pin Stuck in Groom.
BERLIN, Sept. 8. Some amusing tales
are told) of the effects of the recent heat
wave throughout Germany. The Anzel
ger mentions that at a wedding in the
village church of Stllpin in Saxony, the
bride, groom and entire wedding party
fell asleep during the wedding ceremony.
The heat In the church was oppressive,
and the droning voice of the minister
preaching the wedding address sent the
whole party off to slumberland. The
preacher took in the situation and made
some personal remarks in such a loud
voice that the bride woke up.
She aroused others of the party, and
gradually all were awake but the bride
groom. He snored along comfortably, de
spite vigorous pinching and shaking by
the bride, and was only aroused when a
pin was stuck into him several times.
At Lubeck an old woman of TO wan
on the witness stand, but was so af
fected by the heat that she could not
remember her maiden name, and Anally
on being further pressed could not re
member her present name.
WKLCnER KICKED TO DEATH
Australian Sports Take Summary
Vengeance on Bookmaker.
LONDON, Sept. 8. It was only the
other day that a welching bookmaker
only just escaped with his iif; at n
English race course, and from Australia
today comes the story of a welcher who
was kicked to death by an infuriated mob
at the Flemington race course. It was
the day of trie Grand National. Donald
McLeod was the bookie's name. He had
a habit of telling his winning clients that
he would pay them the next day and re
turn them the amount of their stake at
once. He tried the tactics that day, but
In the first two races the favorites won,
and he had a big bunch of angry men to
deal with.
When the favorite won the big race,
a mob surrounded McLeod and refused
to be put off. He paid out all the money
he had on him and then told the crowd
he was broke. One man hit him and
broke his nose. Then he started to run
and the mob followed, kicking at him.
Hefell, and the mob literally kicked hlra,
to death, one kick breaking his neck.
MONK FALLS OVER PRECIPICE
Ghastly Sequel to Expulsion ol
French Religious Orders.
MADRID. Sept. 8. The body of at
monk expelled from France under the
new laws has been found at the bot
tom of a precipice near the village of
Hengul in the Pyrenees. The monk
belonged to a monastery near Tou
louse, which, when broken up by the,
French government, scattered Its In
mates in all directions.
The dead monk tramped across the
frontier and was seen on the road
begging for a shelter for the night.
He was refused admission as several
houses, and, although evidently fa
tigued, continued on his way through,
the mountains. It is supposed that ha
missed his road in the dark and went
over the precipice.
This is the third body of a French)
monk found dead in this neighborhood
during the last four weeks.
SCOTTY ON THE RAMPAGE
Takes Offense In Owl Car and Makes
All Passengers Hold Up Hands.
FRESNO, Cal.. Sept. 8. Death Valley
Scotty jumped oft the South-bound owl
here last night In high dudgeon, after
giving 28 men in the Pullman a realistic)
touch of the old-time wooly West. Their"
hands stretched high above their heads,
the thoroughly frightened passengers
were compelled to hear a long tirade
from the half-drunken mystery from the)
Nevada gold fields.
A story told by one of his fellow pas
sengers la that Scotty attempted to break
in upon the private conversation of
three passengers, who resented his in
trusion. A quarrel started and Scott
finally whipped out a big revolver and
compelled everybody in the car to hold
up hands while he heaped verbal abusa
on the men with whom he had quarreled.
Twelve Men Make 1200 Idle.
CHICAGO, Sept. 8. Owing to the at.
tltude taken by the officials of the Re
public Iron & Steel Mills at East Chicago
toward the organization of the engineers.
12 engineers have walked out. The offi
cials objected to the presence of repre
sentatives of Chicago unions In the plant,
which is an open shop. When the 13
engineers struck the machinery was tied
up and 1200 men thrown out of work.
Union men are picketing the mills and
the officials are employing private detec
tives from Chicago to prevent possible
destruction of property. The strike may
spread to other Industries In the Calumet
region unless an armistice is reached
shortly.
