Mrs Smiths sister Mrs Anthony J Drexel who had been hero for the Jam month sailed for Europe a few days ago and will probably Join Mr and Mrs Smith who have been for some time in Scotland where they were married a few months ago JUDGE WILL DROP THE FIGHT Kimball Accepts Decision in Nolle Prossing of Cases Declare However lie has Found Severn Instances Where Rule Does Injury to Innocent Persona Judge I G Kimball of the Pollee Court while accepting the decision of Commissioner Macfarland regarding the nolle pressing of cases by the corpora- tion counsel and his assistants as final ie disposed to believe that the Commis- sioners are mistaken in their assump- tion that be was Incorrectly informed regarding two cases which he recently brought to their attention The decision Of the Commissioners of course settles the matter as far as I am concerned said Judge Kimball The assumption of the Commissioners how ever that I was misinformed with re- gard to the two cases which In my opin- ion were without warrant of law brought before me for trial to an one The cases were brought to my per- sonal attention within a week of the date on which I wrote to the Commis- sioners la one of those instances a warrant was issued sad by some mis- take it was served on a man of the n me name who was haled into court to answer to the charge When the ease was called the prosecuting policeman formed me that the man at the bar was not the oae for whom the warrant had been issued This fact he said he bad explained to the assistant protfjMittng attorney Mr Push I asked Mr Pugh for an explana- tion and he replied that under the Corn raisakmers order he was required to present the ease for trial The defendant of course was immediately discharged but at the same time had been compelled to appear court to answer to a charge of which be was wholly guiltless The other case was that of a woman over seventy years of age who was brought into court charged with a minor infraction of the building regulations The evidence developed that site was not the owner of the property in question and In no way concerned with the manage- ment of it Nevertheless she had been compelled to appear in the Police Court and remain until her case was called In my opinion the assistant prosecut tog attorney would not be usurping the power delegated to the Judge by enter- ing a nolle prosee In these cases Ones similar to these are constantly occurring and as a Judge who to called upon to administer the laws to the best of his ability I would feel myself derelict in my duty If I did not call these matters to the attention of the Commissioners- In my letter I was careful to say that their order an enforced caused needless humiliation to citizens who were being haled into court on minor charges which upon Investigation by the corporation counsel and his assistants might be nolle prossed A broader interpretation of the order by these officials might tend to relieve the situation The question of adding to or detracting from my own duties did not occur to me as I am willing and glad to try every case justly presented to me In the two eases I have mentioned however there certainly seems to me ground for thinking they should have been acHe pressed In Commissioner Macfarlands recom- mendation on Judge KimbaHs request he said the Commissioners were disposed to assume that he Was incorrectly informed as to the facts in the cases since it was plain that neither of them under the letter and spirit of the law should have been taken into court MRS FOSTER IN NEW YORK Special Agent Investigating Condi- tions of Woman Lnborers Mrs J Ellen Foster recently detailed by direction of the President from the De- partment of Justice to investigate the con dition of woman and child

Willing lo Wed It Is said with a semblance of authority that the Prince of Tecks visit to Amer- ica Is for ta purpose of inspecting all the New York Brooklyn anti Harlem River properties owned by his god- parents Mr slid Mrs von Andre It te also claimed that this Immensely valua- ble property may some day be his if The truth of the matter as matrons of social standing and wealth with daughters are aware is that Teck Is coming to pay us a visit for the pur- pose of looKlnc them over Tech is poor and the Tecks are poor In fact the young prince makes no secret of the fact that If be can find an American girl of the proper beauty wealth and position he wont tad any trouble in getting the royal sanction to marry She must be to the manner born and rich enough to support a prince who to close to the throne Teck Is a Jolly young fellow who la twentyfour years old He is pod looking clever fond of fun and an allround likable chap has been to the war in South Africa He dances well He plays bridge

the present Princess of Wales from being Queen of England at once And now what interests thte country most about the situation is that our royal visitor would then be the brother of a real live queen He would also be uncle to the next King of England now Prince Edward Albert Christian George An drew Patrick David twelve years old and sure to be King should be live enough Career Brief Once upon a was ia fiH Prince Francis of Teck resolved to enter busi- ness He was offered a partnership in the stock brokerage firm of Panmure Gordon Co London with a salary of 15000 a year He was delighted and not having seen so much real money for a long time accepted at once King Ed- ward thinking the idea of a royal young ster working for a living a reflection on his position ended that business quickly He told the young man that as the fu- ture Queens brother he couldnt go into any form of business and told him to draw H0 N a year from the royal ex- chequer and forget it The prince promptly did and has been drawing on the public pocketbook ever since But now the King has told the young fellow that it to high time he found a wife And for the first time King Ed ward is wilting it is frankly claimed that one so close to the throne shall American girl Not that King Edward opposes Americans far be it Some of the most conspicuous members of what is called the Kings set are American The Dowager Duchess of Manchester perhaps closer to the throne than any other woman In England save the Queen Is an American woman As many of the wives of the most prominent British peers are Americans Prince Francis of Teck would not be committing any error by adding another to the list The King knows everybody knows that the prince has been very attentive to certain American girls of wealth and so- cial standing In fact if he manages rightly the prince would very much please the King by taking the proper kind American wife And who are the avail shies There are a hundred American girls

actress flgtwad as a nonunion worker in composing room of a newspaepr- olBee At that time the Globe Building had Just been completed and was the pride of the cMy Upon Mrs Laagtry West em tour she managed to combine pleasures with theatrics business and when she reached St Paul she was taken to the Globe Building by a Wash- ington man who held the position of city editor on the paper A big newspaper plant was a novelty to Mrs Laagtry and she expressed great interest hi its workings The composing room especially delighted her and after watchIng the printers at work Ok now I should like to set type Immediately the actress was shown the nm of the boxes sad provided with a printers stick With surprfstag dexterity she set up m type the following sentence The bugle Is the crowning glory of St Paul The next morning this sentence brack- eted appeared to the center of a two column story shout Mrs Langtry who received from the editor of Ute Globe a check for 4S cents the regular printers dupe for the Jersey Lilys labors in the composing room That the souvenir was highly valued is attested by the fact that Mrs Langtry preserved the chock In a gold frame and has it yet among her poseesetong in Eng- land hi recalled by a celebrated Washing- ton manicure that Mrs Langtry was the first to introduce into the United States the fad for foot manicures Mrs Langtry has large feet That Is an Indisputable fact They were the one physical attribute not considered sites httely perfect when the English beauty burst upon the world as the most cele- brated of her type Mrs Langtry con eluded that her feet should become fa- mous as well as the rest of her charm- ing person and in defiance of nature she set about the foot culture which filled New Yorker with amazement and the papers with sensational stories of just how the beautifying process was con- ducted It became quite the thing for Mrs Langtry to hold a levee during the hour of the morning when her manicurist was grooming the renowned feet and her intimate friends came front the pres- ence with wonderful tales of the sym- metry whiteness and large fairness of the Langtry feet The fashionable women of New York were soon engaged in simi tar foot culture and following Mrs Langtrys theory that the human foot could never attain to beauty until the custom was abandoned of wearing shoes and stockings from morning till night half the feminine population of Gotham took to Turkish sandals worn without stockings during the hours spettt at home in negligee and White and rosysoled feet with highly polished nails became the rage and the manicur- ing business took an upward flight in the market Mrs Langtry too inaugurated tho craze for pearls among women of the stage She understood the becomingness of these jewels and that an effect of height Js produced by a long rope of pearls AH of Mrs Langtrys late pho- tographs picture the actress with the rope about her neck and she usually effects one of suck length that it reaches to the floor white she is in a sitting posture The Langtry voice and the Langtry memory are two very remarkable at- tributes of this attractive woman who is every bit as femininely fascinating to day Us she was twenty years ago when she appeared in The Unequal Match as Hester Graysbrook with her splendid hair in a plait down her back for the opening act Having once hears Mrs Langtrys deep fullthroated voice one never forgets it And having been introduced to the Eng- lish actress once one is never forgotten by her Her memory for names well as faces is remarkable and she recalls persons and incidents that figured con spicuously in her first American tour with perfect accuracy of detail Mrs Langtry in all her American tours had just one adequate loading man and that Charles Coghhtn He brought out the artistic side of Mrs Langtrys acting and played up to it as none of her leading supports have since done Herald Want Ads will be received by McChesney Joachim druggists 2d and sts ne a

Frederick Lugard who recently resigned post as high commissioner of Northern Nigeria on ac count of Ids health has been described as a fln de steele dive Now only fortyeight years old with no one

African Soudan and Burma wars but he was on halfsay leave His money was running short and be was reduced to strange shifts So he took a deck passage on a timber ship bound for Maesowah and slept among

with a force largely composed of Ugandese He led the Christian levies of Uganda when they fought and beat the Mohammedan rebels Then he passed to the other side of Africa where something over six years ago he was appointed high commissioner of Nigeria His seiz- ure of Sokoto was accomplished so rap idly that the orders of the colonial office to avoid action only reached him when he was reporting the accomplished fact Had Lady Lugard been a man she would probably have rivaled her husband as an empire builder Few women have been such intrepid travelers or passed through so many

GIVE UP THEm OPERA BOX-

J Henry Smith nnil Bride to IlenminAbroad This Winter

New York Nov 11 That J HenrySmith and his bride formerly Mrs WRhlnolander Stewart do not intend toreturn to Now York this winter is Inferred from a private cablegram receivedhereyasterday from Mr Smith in whichhe said that he would not require his boxat opera in the coming season

For several years Mr Smith has occu-pied on Monday nights box 2ii in theGolden Horseshoe at the Metropolitan

Opera House This box belongs to theestate of tho late Samuel D Babcock-

It is understood that Mr and MrsSmith Intend to remain abroad for thewinter and that they will go to Egypt-

for the ReasonMrs Smiths sister Mrs Anthony J

Drexel who had been hero for the Jammonth sailed for Europe a few days agoand will probably Join Mr and MrsSmith who have been for some time inScotland where they were married a fewmonths ago

JUDGE WILL DROP THE FIGHT

Kimball Accepts Decision in NolleProssing of Cases

Declare However lie has FoundSevern Instances Where Rule Does

Injury to Innocent Persona

Judge I G Kimball of the PolleeCourt while accepting the decision ofCommissioner Macfarland regarding thenolle pressing of cases by the corpora-tion counsel and his assistants as finalie disposed to believe that the Commis-sioners are mistaken in their assump-tion that be was Incorrectly informedregarding two cases which he recentlybrought to their attention

The decision Of the Commissioners ofcourse settles the matter as far as I amconcerned said Judge Kimball Theassumption of the Commissioners however that I was misinformed with re-gard to the two cases which In my opin-ion were without warrant of lawbrought before me for trial to an

oneThe cases were brought to my per-

sonal attention within a week of thedate on which I wrote to the Commis-sioners la one of those instances awarrant was issued sad by some mis-take it was served on a man of the n mename who was haled into court toanswer to the charge When the easewas called the prosecuting policemanformed me that the man at the bar wasnot the oae for whom the warrant hadbeen issued

This fact he said he bad explainedto the assistant protfjMittng attorney MrPush I asked Mr Pugh for an explana-tion and he replied that under the Cornraisakmers order he was required topresent the ease for trial The defendantof course was immediately dischargedbut at the same time had been compelledto appear court to answer to a chargeof which be was wholly guiltless

The other case was that of a womanover seventy years of age who wasbrought into court charged with a minorinfraction of the building regulationsThe evidence developed that site was notthe owner of the property in question andIn no way concerned with the manage-ment of it Nevertheless she had beencompelled to appear in the Police Courtand remain until her case was called

In my opinion the assistant prosecuttog attorney would not be usurping thepower delegated to the Judge by enter-ing a nolle prosee In these cases Onessimilar to these are constantly occurringand as a Judge who to called upon toadminister the laws to the best of hisability I would feel myself derelict inmy duty If I did not call these mattersto the attention of the Commissioners-

In my letter I was careful to say thattheir order an enforced caused needlesshumiliation to citizens who were beinghaled into court on minor charges whichupon Investigation by the corporationcounsel and his assistants might be nolleprossed

A broader interpretation of the orderby these officials might tend to relieve thesituation The question of adding to ordetracting from my own duties did notoccur to me as I am willing and glad totry every case justly presented to me Inthe two eases I have mentioned howeverthere certainly seems to me ground forthinking they should have been acHepressed

In Commissioner Macfarlands recom-mendation on Judge KimbaHs request hesaid the Commissioners were disposed toassume that he Was incorrectly informedas to the facts in the cases since it wasplain that neither of them under theletter and spirit of the law should havebeen taken into court

Washingtons most exclusive social iswondering now whether the royal Teck Its

going to make himself as scarce withthem the thirtysecond Henry ofReuM did They are hoping for the bestand are preparing for eventualities forTeck will be among them before ibng

But that te sot all Washington it soonto be honored also with a visit from LordCanon formerly Viceroy of India andsoninlaw of Mrs LevI Z Letter TiltLord of Kedleston will curtail his visithere as much as it ic possible for him todo while attending to some business af-

fairs He intends merely to pay a callto a number of personal friends In thiscity It is also expected that while inthis city he will pay his reSpectS to thePresident Lord Carson is in deepmourning over the loss of his wife andit goes without saying there wilt be nosocial functions in his honor

lies Willing lo WedIt Is said with a semblance of authority

that the Prince of Tecks visit to Amer-

ica Is for ta purpose of inspecting allthe New York Brooklyn anti HarlemRiver properties owned by his god-

parents Mr slid Mrs von Andre It te

also claimed that this Immensely valua-

ble property may some day be his ifThe truth of the matter as matrons of

social standing and wealth withdaughters are aware is that Teck

Is coming to pay us a visit for the pur-pose of looKlnc them over Tech is poorand the Tecks are poor In fact theyoung prince makes no secret of the factthat If be can find an American girl ofthe proper beauty wealth and positionhe wont tad any trouble in getting theroyal sanction to marry

She must be to the manner born andrich enough to support a prince who to

Should Queen Alexandra survive Ed-

And now what interests thte countrymost about the situation is that our royalvisitor would then be the brother of areal live queen He would also be uncleto the next King of England now PrinceEdward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David twelve years oldand sure to be King should be liveenough

Career BriefOnce upon a was ia fiH Prince

ward thinking the idea of a royal youngster working for a living a reflection onhis position ended that business quicklyHe told the young man that as the fu-

ture Queens brother he couldnt go intoany form of business and told him todraw H0 N a year from the royal ex-

chequer and forget it The princepromptly did and has been drawing onthe public pocketbook ever since

The Dowager Duchess of Manchesterperhaps closer to the throne than any otherwoman In England save the Queen Is anAmerican woman As many of the wivesof the most prominent British peers areAmericans Prince Francis of Teck wouldnot be committing any error by addinganother to the list

STORIES ABOUTMRS LANGTRYM-

rs Langtrys present week engage-ment ta Washington recalls an incidentthat happen out in SL Paul nearlytwenty years ago and in which the Bng-Iteh actress flgtwad as a nonunion workerin composing room of a newspaepr-olBee

At that time the Globe Building hadJust been completed and was the prideof the cMy Upon Mrs Laagtry Westem tour she managed to combine

pleasures with theatrics businessand when she reached St Paul she wastaken to the Globe Building by a Wash-ington man who held the position of cityeditor on the paper

A big newspaper plant was a noveltyto Mrs Laagtry and she expressed greatinterest hi its workings The composingroom especially delighted her and afterwatchIng the printers at work

Ok now I should like to settype

Immediately the actress was shown thenm of the boxes sad provided with aprinters stick With surprfstag dexterityshe set up m type the following sentenceThe bugle Is the crowning glory of St

PaulThe next morning this sentence brack-

eted appeared to the center of a twocolumn story shout Mrs Langtry whoreceived from the editor of Ute Globe acheck for 4S cents the regular printersdupe for the Jersey Lilys labors in thecomposing room

That the souvenir was highly valued isattested by the fact that Mrs Langtrypreserved the chock In a gold frame andhas it yet among her poseesetong in Eng-land

hi recalled by a celebrated Washing-ton manicure that Mrs Langtry was thefirst to introduce into the United Statesthe fad for foot manicures

Mrs Langtry has large feet That Isan Indisputable fact They were the onephysical attribute not considered siteshttely perfect when the English beautyburst upon the world as the most cele-brated of her type Mrs Langtry coneluded that her feet should become fa-

mous as well as the rest of her charm-ing person and in defiance of nature sheset about the foot culture which filledNew Yorker with amazement and thepapers with sensational stories of justhow the beautifying process was con-

ducted It became quite the thing forMrs Langtry to hold a levee during thehour of the morning when her manicuristwas grooming the renowned feet andher intimate friends came front the pres-ence with wonderful tales of the sym-metry whiteness and large fairness ofthe Langtry feet The fashionable womenof New York were soon engaged in simitar foot culture and following MrsLangtrys theory that the human footcould never attain to beauty until thecustom was abandoned of wearing shoesand stockings from morning till nighthalf the feminine population of Gothamtook to Turkish sandals worn withoutstockings during the hours spettt at homein negligee and White androsysoled feet with highly polishednails became the rage and the manicur-ing business took an upward flight in themarket

Mrs Langtry too inaugurated thocraze for pearls among women of thestage She understood the becomingnessof these jewels and that an effect ofheight Js produced by a long rope ofpearls AH of Mrs Langtrys late pho-tographs picture the actress with the

rope about her neck and sheusually effects one of suck length thatit reaches to the floor white she is in asitting posture

The Langtry voice and the Langtrymemory are two very remarkable at-

tributes of this attractive woman who isevery bit as femininely fascinating today Us she was twenty years ago whenshe appeared in The Unequal Matchas Hester Graysbrook with her splendidhair in a plait down her back for theopening act

Having once hears Mrs Langtrys deepfullthroated voice one never forgets itAnd having been introduced to the Eng-lish actress once one is never forgottenby her Her memory for names wellas faces is remarkable and she recallspersons and incidents that figured conspicuously in her first American tour withperfect accuracy of detail

Mrs Langtry in all her American tourshad just one adequate loading man andthat Charles Coghhtn He broughtout the artistic side of Mrs Langtrysacting and played up to it as none of herleading supports have since done

Ilnplil Rise of Englands Most RecentSoldier of Fortune Makes RomanticStory Mnrrlen nn Intrepid WomanBright Future Still Before HimWon Three Medals for Bravery

London Nov Frederick Lugardwho recently resigned post as highcommissioner of Northern Nigeria on account of Ids health has been

described as a fln de steele diveNow only fortyeight years old with

no one knows what great deeds stillbefore him his career i one of themost dramatic and romantic to be foundIn the list of African empirebuildersTall trained down to nothing but skinand bone and muscle with bright keengray eyes strongly marked aquilinefeatures tanned to the color of a pigskincigar case and ferociously bushy mus-

tache he to the beau ideal of a modernsoldier of fortune He came of militarystock and his father was a chaplainin the Indian army but It was as an ad-

venturer the spiritual descendant ofHawkins and Drake bent on such an en-

terprise s singeing the beard of theKing of Spain that he found his chanceto carve a name for himself in the DarkContinent

Starts for Africa with 950With ft in his belt and with practically

no outfit at all except an old 4M ExpressrUle paid for In India in the absence offunds by shooting a maneating tigerwith a reward on its head Lugard got ona tramp steamer hound for Naples andSuez

He had already won three medals inAfrican Soudan and Burma wars but hewas on halfsay leave His money wasrunning short and be was reduced tostrange shifts So he took a deck passageon a timber ship bound for Maesowah andslept among the cargo He took his morn-ing bath among the sailors in Use fore-castle and his meal of broken victualswith the Italian cook in tim galley along-side the engines and that in the Red Seawhere the heat was enough to grill ablack stoker

An Italian boatswain saw though Lugards disguise told him h knew he wasa genUlhomme said astonished him oneevening by saying with a fervid

I do anything for you You wantshirt Here to my other shirt I give ityou because you have good heart Neverwas present more acceptable but the inci-dent throws a flood of light on the per-sonal qualities which enabled this halfpay captain to save Uganda for the empire mind to rise In the space of fouryears to the rank of brigadier general

Saves Umpire to EnglandHe made his own opportunities Hear-

ing that a trading poet In Nyasealand wasbesieged by Arab stove traders as a bitof recreation be organized a relief expedi-tion and drove the Arabs off after a sharplight in which be was badly woundedThe affair led to his entering the serviceof the East African Company When CarlPeters was trying to gain a foothold inUganda for Germany Lugard made adank for it a hurtful ef black solAiers two white comrades and a Maximgun He bluffed Mwanga into a treatywhich ended in annexation

He played a big part in the earlystcrmy days of Uganda He marchedagainst and defeated Kadbarega of Unyore with a force largely composed ofUgandese He led the Christian levies ofUganda when they fought and beat theMohammedan rebels Then he passed tothe other side of Africa where somethingover six years ago he was appointedhigh commissioner of Nigeria His seiz-ure of Sokoto was accomplished so rapidly that the orders of the colonial officeto avoid action only reached him when hewas reporting the accomplished fact

Had Lady Lugard been a man shewould probably have rivaled her husbandas an empire builder Few women havebeen such intrepid travelers or passedthrough so many adventures She hashad a finger In most of the modern
