* GREAT SURPRISE.
The Singular Nobleman Who Wanted
an American Heiress.
The American father of the heiress
greeted the count who was a suitor for
her hand with dignified frigidity.
"Sare," said the count, "your daugh
ter has done me se honualre of con
senting to be my wife. I am called
to complete ze negotlatlona"
"All right" wearily said the father.
"How much of a cash settlement do
you expect?"
"Nosslng. sare."
"What! How much will 1 have to
pay for your poker debts?"
"Nosslng, sare. 1 do not gamble."
"How much will I have to pay to.

"Nosslng. sare. It Is In fine repair."
"But there must be some expense for
me. Out with It!"
"No, sare; nosslng. I simply love
your daughter and she loves me, and
we wish to be married. Is not zat

TO ENTER "SOCIETY.
You must Havo Treasure, Tempera
ment and Tact.
To enter paradise you had to be
good and yon bad to be dead. To
enter society you do not have to be
either. On the contrary, though what
you do have to be Is harder to tell
than It Is to get there. But certain
| requisites may be mentioned. These
are treasure, temperament and tact
Treasure, which Is ' the basis of all
scrumptiousness, speaks for Itself.
Temperament Is more complex. Tem
perament Is the art of holding your
own on the subject of nothing at all
with experts who have devoted their
lives to the subject. That Is clearly
abnormal. Tact, while less unnatural.
Is more abstruse. Tact Is the ability
to put your vibrations Into harmony
wltb those of others about you. As
plrants may be rich, righteous and
ready, yet If they lack that ability,
whatever their efforts, they are no
wheye. If they possess It, then, though
they be nobodies, they have only to
choose where they want to go nnd get
there—generally speaking, that is, and
provided they are not In a burry.
Taste is very mercantile, besides being
unbecoming.—Edgar Saltus in Broad

He caught it at the station, and his

BILLS OF
Representatives of Many States
Assembled in Seattle For
That Purpose.
Seattle, Wash., August 20.—Com
missioners on uniform laws, appoint
ed by the governors of the several
states, met here today for what prom
ises to be an Important session. Leg
islative reforms of the greatest Inter-,
est will be discussed and recommen
dations made which may have a far
reaching effect.
One of the most notable matters be
fore the commission is the demand of
the commercial Interests of the coun
try for a uniform bill of lading form.
It is allegedly the representatives of
banks and commercial bodies that
gross frauds are perpetrated under the
present system and that these have
made bills of lading an unsafe Instru
ment of credit. The commission is
urged to draft an uniform bill, to be
brought to the attention of congress
at the next session.
The decision of the commercial bod
ies to appeal to the commission on uni
form laws was the result of the an
nouncement of the Interstate cOm
merce commission that It had not suf
fleient authority to order the railroads
session of congress.
to revise their methods of Issuing bills
of lading to meet the objections which
the commercial bodies have raised
against the Instruments In their pres
ent form. It Is the present plan to
have the new bill which Is expected
to be drafted by the commissioners on
uniform laws Introduced at the next
A decision of the interstate com
merce commission announced recently
contained recommendations embodied
In the demands of the shippers, but the
commlsslon decided that It lacked the
power to enforce these recommenda
tions. It was In view of this and the
belief that the railroads would not ac
cept the recommendations of the com
mission, that the plan of appearing j
before the commission was formulated.
The tremendous volume of business
transacted on bills f lading is appar
ent from figures of the year 1907, ,
which show that goods valued at $17,
000,000,000 were shipped on the bills
in that year alone. The commercial
interests have been trying for the last
three years to compel the carriers to
Issue two seperate bills of lading
forms in order to differentiate between
the ordinary receipt and the more im
portant ''order" bill, which is used as
a basis of credit in the transportation
of the country's crops, particularly the
cotton and grain crops of the South
and West and manufactured products.
The shippers have demanded also
that the railroads compel the surrend
er of the Instrument upon delivery of
the property to the consignee, several
extensive swindles having been perpe
bills of lading that were not so sur
rendered. As the railroads have fought
the proposed changes from the first,
representatives of the commercial
bodies say that they do not expect, the
recommendatlons of the Interstate
commerce commission to change the
situation at all, 4 .They believe, how
ever, that whatever action is atken by
the comissioners on uniform state
laws will be aproved by congress, as
the commissioners consist of represen
tatlves from the severaj states appoint
e1 by their respective governors.

It Is Now Stated That Shs Will Short
ly Beeomo the Wifo of SamuSl B.
Clarkson, With Whom 8hS Recently
Eloped.
Hearat News .Service.
Philadelphia, August 20.—With the
expiration today of the three months
which must elapse between the render
Ing of a decision of anunulment of
marriage and Its final confirmation.
Miss Helen Maloney, the Philadelphia
heiress who twice eloped, each time
with a different man, and was adjudg
ed by the courts to be, after all, unmar
ried, la now free to enter m earnest
the bonds of matrimony with the mas
of her choice. Friends of the family
say that Samuel B. Clarkson, the
young Englishman with whom Miss
Maloney eloped to Montreal some
months ago, Is the real possessor of
the heart of the fair daughter of Mar
quis Martin Maloney, the papal noble
and that the ceremony which
man,
will make the twain one will be per
formed shortly.
When Miss Maloney becomes Mrs.
Clarkson, a tangled matrimonial skein
which has been the talk of two conti
nents will be finally straightened out.
For months the society of Philadel
phia, New York and the summer re
sorts has been discussing the mooted
question as to whether Miss Malouey
was really Miss Maloney, or Mrs. Os
borne or Mrs. Clarkson. Now the mat
ter Is to be settled, and society Is
breathing a great sigh of relief.
Today marks ihe expiration of three
months since the handing down of the
decree annuling the "mock marriage"
of Miss Maloney to Arthur Herbert
Osborne, of Mamaroneck.
Friends of the Maloney family as

g ia Miss Maloney might have married
the dny after the court sat. had she
so p |rased, or at any time before, for
that matter. The court he:d that she
had always been free to marry Clark
son.
"There has been no trouble with the
church which could cause delay. It Is
not true that the Pope refused to grant
a dispensation. There has never been
any petition to the Pope. There has
never, In the opinion of the family,
been anything to petition the Pope
to dispense.
"The petition for the annulment of
the alleged marriage was brought only
because of the notoriety the elopement
brought to the family. It was merely
to satisfy the public by means of the
highest legal authority that there had
never been any mariage. The family
had no need of such declaration, ex
cept to put an end definitely to the
statement that had been made that
a marriage had taken place.
"Miss Maloney is now, and always
has been, in the position of any single
young woman seeking to enter matri
mony for the first time."
