WILLS A RACING
STABLE TO ARCHBISHOP
Prelate Finds Himself In an Embar
rassing Predicament.
Paris, March 9.-1 all ages devout
Catholics have bequeathed legacies of
different size and description to popes,
cardinals and archbishops, but it is
safe to say that ;no prelate was ever
more thoroughly astounded than the
Archbishop of Paris hen he awoke
some time ago to find himself the pos
sessor of a celebrated racing stable.
"I beg pardon lor intruding," Mon
seigneur Amette's secretary came into
the archbishop's study with an air of
much perturbation one morning, "but
a lady, the Viscountess de .Raineville,
has just died and has left her fortune
of several millions . to your excel
lency.".' :"
"What .is this, my friend? ."Surely
there is some mistake," the archbishop
turned abruptly In his chair. "I never
even heard of the lady."
"That may be," the secretary ad
mitted deferentially, "but the fact is
that your excellency is the sole heir
of thi3 legacy which Includes a well
known racing stud." - .... . .
"Ah, of course you mean that this
legacy was left to the church to be
distributed among the poor under my
. direction." 'v-,.
But when Monseigneur Amette un
derstood that, the legacy was left to
him personally and not to the church,
lie refused to accept it. But just after
his secretary had left the archbishop
ric to communicate Monseigneur Am
ette's decision to the executors of the
will, word came that- the court had
ratified the bequest, so there was noth
ing to do but to accept the legacy, in
cluding the embarrassine item of the
race horses. , . '-Q';';v.j'-, ;
Of course the archbishop immediate
ly gave orders for the sale of the stud,
also" of the viscountess' properties,
comprising much real estate, a breed
ing farm and a historic chateau at Al
lonville in Normandy. The legacy con
verted into cash wiljbe used for vari
ous charitable organizations. , '
" If theaugust and unwilling owner of
race-track favorites fancied that he
coma wasn nis nanas or proprietary
duties1 so easily, he soon discovered his
mistake. His man of affairs soon
came to him with a complication. The
horses were to be put up at auction
at a big establishment in the rue de
Ponthieu. But some critics had
pointed out to this man of affairs that
the autcioneer was a Jew. Was this
a serious enough consideration to war
rant the Intervention of the arch
bishop? It evidently -waff, for a few
days later the honor of auctioning the
stud was awarded to a rival establish
ment where the sale is to take place
shortly.
The collection consists of twenty,
five horses and by a curious coinci
dence the De Raineville jockeys have
always worn violet the archbishop's
color.
During the last years of her life the
Viscountess, an old lady in her seven-,
ties, had very naturally not taken as
much interest in the horses as her hus
band had done. He was a staunch
royalist deputy and his wile was ap
parently a strong sympathizer with
his anti-republican ideas, for she de
lighted in giving names which were
caricatures of prominent governmental
personalities, to her horses. Clemen
ceau was transformed into Clcmen
cette and Caillaux became Caillaut
ette. Because of the Viscountess" lack of
interest in race track triumphs or
defeats, very few of the horses which
will be auctioned are particularly cele- j
bratedj although former victories of
the De Raineville stable are still re
membered in SDortine circles. Slnc
her husband's death the Viscountess
paid more attention to the breeding
of horses rather than to races. Her
farm at Alton ville was one of the best
in France, and many of the de Raine
ville foals were sold during the sum-
mer season at the fashionable resort,
Deauvllle. i
How did it happen that a woman of'
such wealth left her great fortune. to
the archbishop? The only member of
her Immediate family still livine was:
a sister whom she had not spoken to
nor seen for many years because of
some family difficulty. There were a
few .distant cousins, nenhews and'
nieces, but Mme. de Raineville had '
held herself aloof from, all relatives
for a long time. She had cut herself
off not only from her relations, , but
irom her circle of friends at one time
so large. The greater part of the year
she lived in 'solitary state at her cha
teau, and when she visited her, Paris
apartment no detail of her dailv ron.i
tine was changed. Her way of living
was a matter of conjecture to former
friends and acquaintances. - She re
ceived ho one but her confessor, the
Abbe Riviere, and for several vearn
before her death she seldomjefther
room, she never ate anything but the
Plainest of roods chiefly cereals and
milk which were served to her on a
tray in her high-canopied bed. , How
ever, aS a reminder of those ceremo
nious repasts of other days, her but
ler always arranged a table near by,
set ; with costly damask and heavy
piate, ana served a full course dinner
to a couple of empty chairs.
Two years ago Mme. de Raineville
deposited $$200,000 with an Insurance
company the money to bo paid out
in annuities of $14,000. She lived on
this and the income from her various
properties was devoted largely to char
ities. Considering her eccentric iso
lation from friends and family and her
absorbing interest in the church.Jt is
not surprising that the archbishop
found himself heir to her millions
racing stable included.

Nothing In the way of a Cough is
quite '-so annoying as a tickling, teas
ing, wheezing, bronchial Cough. The
quickest relief comes perhaps from a
prescription known to Druggists
everywhere as Dr. Shoop's Cough
Remedy. And besides, it is so thor
oughly harmless that mothers give It
with perfect safety even to the young
est babes. The tender leaves of a
simple mountain shrub, give to Dr.
Shoop's Cough Remedy its remark
able curative effect. A few days' test
will tell. Sold by Stripling, Burrows
