Show TROUBLE IN HIGH LIFE. the Grandson of Sir Robert Peel Criticise For Courting Newspaper Notoriety. "Bobby" Peel, about as well known a young fellow about town as Londoi ever produced, haa eome over here with the avowed determination to marry Miss Kittie Sanford, the daughter of the Adams Express Sanfords, who are of course awfully rich. These are the same Sanfords whose action ruined John Hoey, and who have pursued the remnants of his estate with singular persistency. Young Bobby Peel's ambition is a very laudable one, as Miss Sanford is a very pretty and accomplished girl and an heiress to boot, and better than all has evinced a very decided partiality for Mr. PeeL At the same time many old fashioned people will object to the methods employed em-ployed by Peel to overcome the opposition opposi-tion of Miss Sanford's family. v .He has taken the newspapers into his confidence and makes long statements about his own worthiness and undytag love and calls his sought aflerTrelatives all kinds of names for denying his suit It is doubtful if he would try such a game at ivome in England. If young Peel really loves Miss Sanford San-ford as he declare he does (in the newspapers), news-papers), it would be more dignified for him to keep her name out of public-journals. public-journals. Jjovo is a passion that needs no advertising, adver-tising, and a sweetheart's name is not the one to be bandied about in daily print. If young Peel loves Misa Sanford as much without as with her prospective fortune, he can elope with her at any time provided she is willing. Love laughs at locks and bars, but grows cold under newspaper interviews and long winded statements. Another alternative also presents itself it-self to Mr. PeeL If he loves Miss Sanford as much as he says he does (on paper), why cannot he settle down and do something to prove his love? The Sanfords object to him because he has boen a ne'er do well and has cost his father a lot of money to keep him going in the society in which he is ui-titled ui-titled to liva But by all odds my advice to Bobby is to keep out of the newspapers. It would be simply horrible if hr published some of Miss Sanford's letters let-ters to prove how she loves him. Yel he seemed to be just on the verge of such insanity yesterday.
