He is very ambitious politically and

.Blenheim Zs Closed.
His splendid castle at Blenheim,
whluh Is .one of the show1 plaoes of
England, has been, permanently closed
ana will be rented if some angel hapt
pecs aJofts from America with money
enough to pay tha coat Sunderland
house, which belongs to tha duchess
and which ahe la now occupying in
London, probably will be put on the
market The ducheaa still shuns so
ciety snd haa made no move to gain
possession of her children. It Is known,
nowever. that she expects to get them
sway from the duke later on. , ...
The loss of the . Vsnderbllt millions
was a great blow to the duke, who haa
very little money of hla own and who
la now forced to adopt a., policy of rigid
economy la bis . personal -expenditures.
Just how much tha duchesa haa . had
from her father is a matter of conjec
ture, but It la estimated from $10,000.
00 to lli.000.000. And he was a sort
of bargain counter duka at that when
ths ducheaa bought him." ' -;

In point of precedence, Marlborough
la only tenth among tha British peers,
nine dukes go In' to dinner before him
and alt higher at the table. But the
descendant of John Churchill and Sarah
Jennings nevertheless commanded ' the
record matrimonial price aver paid for
duke, when In 1896 he became the
husband of eonsuelo, only, daughter of
William K. Vanderbllt. ' i , ,
To begin with, there was a first pay
ment of $10,000,000. the duchess'. dowry
given by her father on her wedding day.
Boms estlmatea place the dowry at tit.-
ooo.ooo, but tha smaller figure is more
generally accepted. But In the 11 years
that have elapsed since the- ducal wed
ding many additional Installments have
been paid by W. K. Vanderbllt. and It
Is said to have been tha latter s refusal
to pay any mora mill lone on account
since his own wedding three years ago
to Mrs. Anne Harrlman Rutherford uat
brought about the final rupture be
tween tha Duke and Ductless of Marl
borough. " ':- ' " - -
Half Million Checks.
" There was an additional $1. 000,009
given the duchess for the purchase of
Sunderland house, the magnificent man
sion In May Fair, which haa been called
by tha Marlborough's acquaintances
Blunderland." because it is universally
recognised as a costly mistake. Mr.
Vanderbllt presented tha duchess with a
check for $600,000 to purchase tha fue
n,lshings for the xiew palace. When
the. duka returned' safe and sound from
the Boer war there was another check
for $600,000 and the duchess is said to
have received some .similar checks at
tha birth of each of her two children.'
Tha restoration of the Italian gar
dens at Blenheim palace,, the magnifi
cent country seat presented by. the
British nation to the first Duke of
Marlborough, which wss dona at Wil
liam K. Vanderbllt's expense, ame to
very little under $1,000,009. so that a
conservative estimate of tha amount
paid out 'by the American millionaire
since tha acquisition of the ducal son-in-law
ta $15,000,000. This was up to
llOt, when William K. Vanderbllt took
unto himself a new wife, and the lid
was gently shut on the valuable coffers
so that not any American dollars- have
found their way Into tha capacious ducal
pockets since that time. ; , -
' Duka Ox-ows Feevlsh.
When. the flow of money ended, of
course . ths rows began. The duchess.
who Is an amiable, clever and dis
tinctly sweat looking woman, was face
to face with ths fact that her husband,
who bad only received $16,000,000 on
account, was as peevish, and disgruntled
aa an Installment man who comes
around for a $20 set of books aftsr you
have paid everything but the last dollar.
Bhe was confronted by constant denun
ciations pf her father aa an old miser
snd by unremitting complaints which
finally became unberarable. . - ;
Now that aha has left ths duka, tha
noble peer, makes all sorts of lnstnua
tlona and threatens to sua for divorce
the last grandstand play of a coward
for mors Vanderbllt millions.

"Xondon, Nov. 10. King Edwsrd has
mads a wise and practical auggestlon.
Hs says It would be a good thing for
soma of tha younger sons of tha aris
tocracy if they sought positions as
chefs. This Idea was the outcome of
an Incident which -took place whtls tqe
kin ' waa recently visiting Lord and
Lady Colebrooke. His majesty and his
hostess returned from a motor drive one
evenlna- 'about '7:10 when Lady Cole
brooke waa told In tha presence of the
king, by aa Indiscreet young footman,
that there was no' dinner la progress
as tha chef wss drunk snd In bed. -An
almost Identical Incident occurred a
yesr ago when the king was visiting the
Bassoons. "
King Kdward sees nothing dsrogatory
In any kind of work and In suggesting
new "profession" for ths numerous
younger sons of Impecunious noblemen
h knows of what ha la talking. Good
chefs asm anything from 1 1,000 to
$16,000 per annum and their behavior
ot late Is. as Mark Twain would aay,
"causing remark." The male chef Is
the fashion and tha king's notion is that
ware hard-up scions of the aristocracy
to take up the calling they would earn
much mora money than they' could hope

which Utslr training 1U fits Una.
