Show The Paget Twins HERE is a chance for you girls. The twin sons of Sir Arthur and Lady Paget have purchased a 2.500 acre fruit ranch In California, Cali-fornia, near Los Angeles, and declare that they are going to become American citizens and marry American girls. They are 23 years of age, are graduates of Oxford and are of fine stock, On the father's side, they are decendents of that Paget, who won his Marquisate at Waterloo, the mother was Miss Minnie Stevens, the daughter of the late Paron Stevens of New York. Their elder brother is a captain of a regiment in India. He and their father wanted the boys to go into the army; the mother entirely approves ap-proves of their becoming American fruit farmers. They seem to be game boys. They first tried an oil well in Wyoming which did not materialize, and they worked a good while at $60 a month each on the Northern Pacific Railroad. Of course they will inherit great wealth after a while, but they seem to have the stuff in them to break even if they do not get the wealth. Naurally the elder brother will get the title and most of the estate, but he will only be a marquis. The boys when they get their American citizenship papers will be sovereigns. |
