Wealthiest of American Heiresses Hay Give Her Hand and Fortune to a British Karl Match Would lie Satisfactory Satis-factory to Society. Miss May Goelet, the wealthiest American heiress In her own right, who is spending the winter in London with her mother is reported, on good authority, to be engaged to Viscount Ingestre, the Bon and heir of the Earl of Shrewsbury and Talbot, who is the premier Earl of the Realm, and as such takes precedence of all peers of the rank of earl in the British empire. Miss Goelet and young Lord Ingestre Inges-tre have been staying at Wilton, near Salisbury, the country seat of the Earl and Countess of Pembroke, and not only have they been much in one another's an-other's company, but have likewise been photographed together. Lord Ingestre In-gestre is the most intimate friend of Lord Herbert, son of Lord Pembroke, whose coming of age has just been celebrated. Miss Goelet is regarded as almost one of the family at Wilton, being a niece of Mrs. Michael Herbert, whose husband is a younger brother of Lord Pembroke. A marriage between Lord Ingestre and Miss Goelet would give satisfaction satisfac-tion to London society, and could not in any sense be compared to those u iona in v?i!ch the American bride has brought all the fortune and the titled husband has nothing but his coronet, cor-onet, for Lord Ingestre's father is not only extremely wealthy through the Inheritance of entailed property from his ancestors, but has likewise made several fortunes on his own account, as owner of the celebrated Brereton collieries, and also as the principal cab owner in London. His ancestral es tates extend over about 50,000 acres, i and his income from land alone is es- i timated at a quarter of a million dol- ; lars a year. The present Countess of Shrewsbury Mtas the heroine of a somewhat sensational sensa-tional elopement nearly a quarter of a century ago, srcial trains and steam yachts figurli.. in the affair, the companion com-panion of her fligjl beb a her present husband, the earl, whom she married after her divorce from her first husband, hus-band, Miller Mundy.

Two clusters of lights now at the tops of the two mast3 are visible thirteen miles at sea. but it is expected expect-ed that the pillar of light rising to the ekies may be seen thirty nd fsry miles at sea. This new marine signal is the device of Commander Albert Ross, Inspector of the Fifth Lighthouse Light-house district, and will be put in operation op-eration Jan. 1. It is expected tjhat the eky-pierclng shaft of light will also be adopted at Fire Island, Sandy Hook and Nantucket Shoals lights. It is not proposed to abolish the present mast-bead mast-bead beacons. As a guide to mariners coming In from sea the 13-lnch electric elec-tric beam, reaching up in the dome of nlftht, will be as far ahead of big electric beacons of the first order as the beacons were ahead of oil lamps. This Innovation is not only of local but world-wide Interest. Three Lonely Men Left. A peculiar club Is dissolving at Tucson, A. T., after several years' existence. ex-istence. Twenty-two bachelors Joined, and then ft was decided to admit no other members, and that If any member mem-ber Altered into the bonds of matrimony matri-mony he rhould renounce his affiliation affilia-tion with the club, and also-hit financial finan-cial Interest. A club building was erected ana" the twenty-two men began housekeeping. The defections since have been taking place with alarming frequency lately, and at the present time three lonely men are the sole rddents of the club building, one of the most artistic structures of the Fnithwf!t. DOCTORS IN MADAGASCAR. rreuch BstablUhlng Free Dispensary Service Throughout Island. The French have just begun to carry car-ry out a great work of humanity in Madagascar. Medical missionaries were until recently the only doctors in the island. The Governor General several years ago established a school of medicine and a hospital at the capital. cap-ital. The medical school has already turned out fifteen native physicians who have proved themselves competent compe-tent to practice medicine. With his white medical staff and the Intelligent natives who are being trained to practice medicine, the Governor General Gen-eral now expects widely to extend the service. He has therefore decreed that all branches of the medical service ser-vice in the island shall be consolidated consoli-dated In one organization and that hospitals similar to that in Antananarivo, Antana-narivo, where 125 sick persona may be accommodated at one time and where free medical service is dispensed to applicants numbering 100 to 150 a day, shall be established in the larger towns. M?Tiy natives trained for medical med-ical service will travel from one village vil-lage to another distributing medicines medi-cines and treating the ill. Particular attention will be given to the care of children, as the mortality among infanta in-fanta is actually 40 per cent of the total deaths. Pamphlets are now being be-ing printed in the Malagasy language giving rules of hygiene. It is hoped that the measures which are being taken to improve the health of . the people may result in the rapid increase in-crease of the. population, which now numbers only 2,500,000. The Governor General says that in a half century the population of Madagascar should be double. New York Sun. REMARKABLE CURE OF CROUP. A Little Boy's Life Saved.

All Manayunk Is chuckling over a joke played the other day by Al Rudolph, Ru-dolph, his victims being the patrons of a certain barber shop over in West Manayunk, says the Philadelphia Record. Rec-ord. This place has the reputation of being the rendezvous of a gang of Jokers, Jok-ers, who confiscate anything In the nature of eatables or drinkables brought In by an unsuspecting customer. cus-tomer. A man c. in the other day with a dozen fried oysters that he was taking home as a peace offering to his wife, and when he was released from the chair every oyster had disappeared. disappear-ed. Watermelons have been known to go the same way, and when Al Rudolph Ru-dolph had an Imported cheese stolen while he was being shaved he planned a deep, dark revenge. While In town the next day he went to a restaurant and ordered some deviled crabs made, giving specific directions as to their ingredients. The component parts were sawdust, red pepper and bits of old rubber shoes, covered over with brrvn, slightly baked. Then he went to the barber shop and while he was being shaved he left the counterfeit crabs, neatly done up in a box, on a chair. When he went out he purposely purpose-ly forgot them. In the place at the time were "Professor" David Wallace, Special Officer Harry Haggerty, Bill Lyle and Teddy Watchorn. No sooner had Rudolph gone than Lyle grabbed the package and opened it and a mad scramble ensued for the contents. In the meantime the Joker was peering through the window and he says the scene that followed beggars description; descrip-tion; that he never before heard such profanity and hopes he never will again. A $50,0 0 VASE. Smashed by a Rr'inkeu Man, Bat Tat Together Again, One of the famous and popular exhibits ex-hibits In the British museum is the unique Portland vaso. About ten inches high, mad of glass of a wonderfully won-derfully deep blue, ornamented in relief re-lief with a series of figures of opaque white glass, it was found in a marble sarcophagus under the Monte del Grano, some two and a half miles from Rome on the way to Frascatl. For a long time it was the chief ornament of the great Barberini palace at Rome, but toward the end of the eighteenth century it was bought by Sir William Hamilton, who in turn sold it to the Duchess cf Portland in 1785, and by the then Duke of Portland It was deposited hi the British museum in 1810. The museum did not then occupy its present pres-ent building, and in 1845, while it was .Ulll in Montague house, the vase was broken ty an act of vandalism. A man named William Lloyd, who was n ployed in the museum, got drunk one day in February of that year, and, picking up a Babylonian stone which, lay on thr ground, he hurled It at the va?c, which was placed under a gluss case. There was a crash, and the case and the vase fell shattered to the ground. 1 he museum authorities approached ap-proached the Duke of Portland with a view to prosecuting the man, but, for reasons of his own, the duke refused to appear, and the only thing the museum could do was to bring the culprit before be-fore a magistrate on a charge of wantonly wan-tonly breaking the glass case. The magistrate fined him a couple of pounds, and the nne was considerately paid by an old lady with more sympathy sym-pathy than sense, so that the man got off scot free. The pieces were put together to-gether again, and perhaps the romance which has thus clustered around tho vase may have enhanced Its value. It Is estimated to be worth no less than 10,000.

The measurements of the rivers of Texas by the hydrographers of the United States geological survey have brought to light the fact that during 1900 there was a marked Increase In all the streams Investigated. This was found to be particularly evident In the streams which rise in the extensive exten-sive Edwards plateau. The Edwards plateau Is a flat tableland in south central Texas some 2,000 square miles In area, the extension of the high plains of western Kansas. From the sides of this tableland many rivers flow In deep and picturesque canyons and are of great economic value for irrigation, power and supply. Owing to the Increased amount of water la 1900, the entire section through which these rivers passed raised the best stock of the last ten years and were also enabled to make use ot continued lirinatlon and water power, which bad not been the case for a number of 'years. The geological survey Is conducting con-ducting systematic measurements on about twenty rivers In Texas, e results re-sults of which will be of use Id their future development. WHAT PEOPLE EAT. Born Carious Insect Dishes for the AKuylDit of the Appetite. The ancient Israelites ate locusts, fried iu oil, and many modern travelers in Africa have pronounced well-cooked locusts to be both succulent and nourishing, nour-ishing, with something of the taste of boiled eggs. The old great philosopher, Socrates, who knew several things, considered a dish of well-oooked grasshoppers grass-hoppers to be more toothsome than quail on toast, and the French army in Algiers found that grasshoppers, simply sim-ply boiled in salt water, were not only good eating, but a valuable addition to army diet, and the old campaigners can led the custom back home with them, so that today grasshoppers are valued In many French provinces a. an article, of food. In Poitiers, France, the children catch grasshoppers in the fields and eat their legs raw. The French bon vivant enjoys his dish of snails and in many French country districts dis-tricts a cricket called the cockchafer Is regarded as excellent food. In fact, a resolution once offered in the French senate, to provide funds for the destruction de-struction of the cockchafer because of Its injury to vegetation in certain seasons, sea-sons, met with strong opposition from many learned senators because of Its vahie to the people as a food product. The palm worm of India, a white, oily insect, about three inches in length. Is considered a delicacy by the natives, whether eaten raw or cooked in various vari-ous ways. It Is sometimes united with flour and made Into cakes, or its oil is extracted and used as the base of gravy and sauces as an appetizer with other food products. The white ant of India and Africa, fried In butter, Is also a choice article of food. In Australia the larvae of the horned caterpillar are regularly sought for food. They are found in decaying trees and have a value and flavor according to the species spe-cies of tree they have been taken from. The natives eat them raw, but the civilized tribes prefer them fried. We can Imagine the lady of the family, with her market basket, dickering for her favorite brand of caterpillar eggs. Child Worth Millions.

The early evening suburban trains coming into the Broad street station and the Reading terminal in Philadelphia Phila-delphia contain a good sprinkling these days of young men and women carrying bags filled with golf clubs. The boys who lurk about the exits In the hope of picking up nickels and dimes for carrying small baggage let these people severely alone. They know It's no wee. A young man alighted from one of the trains at the terminal yesterday afternoon, says the Philadelphia Record, accompanied by two young women. He was, consequently,' conse-quently,' loaded down with three of the unwieldy bags his own and those of his two companions. As he passed through the gates he was approached by a boy, who cried: "Carry yer bag gage, mister?" The young man siin ply waved him aside. Another boy, more worldly wise, took the first boy to task: "When yer in de business as long as me," he said, you'll know better bet-ter dan to waste yer breat' on dem guys.

People's Drag Store Wood-Rating Mules. Mr. S. A. Karris, a grocer of Charlotte, Char-lotte, has lost a mule and the better part of a delivery wagon. The wagon body was made of poplar. The mule waa made of just simply ordinary every-dsy mule. Tuesday night the mule got out of the Btable and set about a task of eating up the delivery deliv-ery wagon He ate the frame work to the floor and might have finished the floor If he hadn't stopped long enough to die. Mr. Cam King, one of the original orig-inal Two Orphans, was at the old Courthouse when he overheard Squire Maxwell telling an Observer reporter about the death of Sam Harris' mule. "I believe every word of it," spoke up King, "and I will tell you why. Mules will eat wood when they are wanting forage and can't get It (meaning no reflection on Sam). At Staunton, Va., during the war, I was in charge of the commissary wagons. We had plenty f corn for our mules, but for days they had no forage whatever. Well, one night my mule ate out five spokes from a wagon wheel to which they had been tied. That morning I got a load of chestiiHt rails to fed mv I mules on and they ate every one of thein. .Not a mulo died. What caused the death of Mr. Harris' mule I can't say, but I do know that my army mules were great wood eaters." Charlotte Dally Observer. The Secret of Long Life.
