THE BLENHEIM PJLACE. MONUMENT TO THE SERICES OF THE DUKE OF MARLBOPUGH. tto Marvelous Beauty and health of Traditiona-Honora WhiclMay Fall to an American Girl. i From the Boston Iferrl Blenheim is the grandest paliJ in all Eng land, barring the Queen's bestjceidence nt Windsor. It Ls also the most iicresfyng and fruitful in historic lore. It v* built by the F.nglish jieople to illusbraWtud preserve the fame of the great Duke (Atari boro ugh, both in the intrigues of politts and on the field of battle. By far it isle of the best monuments to commemorut distinguished services to be seen in the lilted Kingdom. Were it nearer London it ould be a more favorite spot for visitors tin Windsor or any other of the historical bjeots about the great city. It is so rich i memories of the past, fruitful in reflectionspon the present and suggestions for the iture, that one stands within its gates a sfcient of the won derful history of England Its marvelous beauty is second only to he grand tradi tions it recalls. The Duke of Marlborcgta, whose great doeds this palace comnienrates, was a King in intellect and power, he present Duke of Marlborough is a gentnnau of superior intellect, but unambitiou for political or military distinction. TV touch the spirit and purpose of life alongtsdifferent grades is an interesting pastiivn Degrees of hu man nature are best studid in this way. It is easy to get well at a an in his' own house, and people are syn at their best when hedged about with he liberties and restrictions of tlieir own homes. This is particularly so in Old Euguid, where each house preserves and presets the history of centuries that belong to it. I do not won der that the dukes and lore of the present day take a pride in their acestors, for they left them GREAT ESTATES, MONE3AND POWER. Heirlooms worthy of prie are these great parks, with their wnndcful houses and quaint lodges, filled with he recollections of years, which stand as enolem? of the re ward a grateful Deople payfor public ser vices, either in the realm o politics or the cruel exactions of mifitarylife. There are many of these old relics ofthe past, grand monuments marking an arstocratie era and act, scattered all over Engand. They are full of the evidences of a treat civilization and of mighty conquests. Blenheim palace, the pinnaae of this sen timent, is situated on broad afes that have been for centuries royal posessions. All about it are the evidences and Homan and Saxon life, and each acre is liaded with the history of conquest, peaeefu and warlike. There has been in Oxfordhire, of which Blenheim is a part, so mull of royal in trigue that a goodly portUx of it was, years ago, purchased by the government of Brit ain as the home of the mm who was strong est in his military power, nore audacious in his political ambitions, aid more voracious for wealth than any oth<r citizen or soldier who helped to make her history. The old Duke was a sleek citien aud a wonderful soldier. Upon him England showered groat distinction and fabulots wealth. His plot tings against King AViliam were hushed in the strength of his miitarv fame, and his efforts to incite an insirrection for the re storation of Janies an to-day regarded as rather examples of wislom und courage than as scandals upon his nUne. The family the great Duke founded !us, in a greater or less degree, now and then exhibited his leading Characteristics. He loved power, was mighty in intellect, and coveted riches more than anything on eartli In all his life this trait was uppermost, and the value of his conquests were reckoner by him in dollars and cents. Blenheim Park, in Woodstock, is sixty five miles from Londiii, and is reachod by an easy ride through some of the loveliest pictures of Englisl country life. It is twelve miles arounn this country seat, which is decorated with e T erything that can dem onstrate THE GREATNESS OF MARLBOROUGH, and the affection in which he was held by the people at the time of this royal bequest. A great shaft, more the,- 100 feet high, rises hear the palace proclaiming his many vic tories ana recording his valiant deeds. It supports a heroic statue of the remarkable soldier. There are miles of graveled walks and beautiful roads through the park and about the palace. A lovely lake, fringed with shrubbery and filled with all the at tractive tilings which a lavish expenditure of money could provide, charms the eye. Great groves nil the acros dedicated" to memories of the mighty past, and the grand old trees sot in long, regular rows, or scat tered about haphazard, furnish shelter for splendid herds of domestic animals or for Hu abundance of game. A spot for such a purpose could not have been better chosen. The land it occupies is of that complexion which gives just enough of a rolling char acter to relievo the monotony of flatness which cliaracterizes some parts of England. Caro and money have been so properly blended in laying out the grounds and in decorating them, that one feels after a drive through them the very climax of beauty of construction and location is here. All about, everything shows neatness and attention. The shrubbery is beautiful ami varied. The house is more attractive, if possible, than the ground. It is uniuuo in its construction, bold in outline and delicate in relief. Truly, it is a palace! Its style of architecture is very striking. Itdoes not follow tho antique lines, but is freer and broader, belong ing to the renaissance period. Hut the exterior of the house is not so material as the interior, with its wealth of traditions. Like all old English residences of its class, everywhere on its walls and in its halls are RELICS OF BY-GONE DAYS, kept to reflect the greatness or record the history of those who have gone liefore. Its limits are broad enough to accommodate many a score of visitors, should they at any time decide to enjoy the hospitality of its master. Statuary stands in every niche and corner, as paintings hung upon every wall. It is the mode in these abodes of roy alty to load tho walls with the portraits of men and women.both when they were young and old, who by chance may have been born ill the lineal descent to the head of tho Louse. Blenheim is perhups ahead of all otliors in keeping faith with this custom. How broad or long this magnificent house is is immaterial. It covers acres, and everywhere there are great parlors, cozy sitting rooms, spacious • moking rooms lounging places and bed chambers half as large as an American house, all sumptuously furnished, and bear ing in every part the figures of a mighty jiasr and the reflection of a curious present. The fruits of conquest are abundant, be cause this house grew out of the ashes of we;-. The dining hall, hung with its dra pery for the feast, and other quaint remind ers of aristocratic conditions, isa marvel of [icautyand completeness. The family plate is rich in history in itself, and Is ample for more than a hundred guests, which some time., are found aliout this hospitable board. Lie iheiiu is a gift front the English govern I'ient to the old Duke, and cost or 41.k60.000, When tho present Duke of Marlborough invited (leu. Simon Cantoron, and his party W> partake of his royal cheer In this mag nificent old palace, 1 could not but help ■nuee upon what had occurred many time* around this bonrd and within these historic walls. KINGS AND QUEENS have wine. l amt supped at this tablo. Heroes In war and peats< have tippled with tho greatest soldier in English history. Poli tical intrigues affecting the fate of nations lor wtiel or woe have Isssn made here. Per .-Ininoa the deat h doom of kings and queens have t.en sealed bore, and surely many a I’ohtioal fortune has been swamped or nuide JfWI within Mioao walls. I Imagine that American veteran thought of all these thing*, for after the fatist ha said ; ' am Mudyiug ancient, history to-day. j o> ail the place, j have visited, none have I h.toiMtai Me like this. I* madia a'moet 1 every era in the history of the nation, i of a great power ore numerous and suggestive. The ability to make and un | make men is one of the greatest charms of ! public life. Marlborough not only created and destroyed whom lie pie ,sed, but played with governments almost r , a child tosses his football about. Here are the evidences of liis conquests, passing down from one generation to another, illustrating hischar acterand teaching mankind how mighty is o:ie man’s will lor good or evil.” Blenheim Palace has been somewhat marred since the old Duke died. Thirteen years ago tb > father of the i resent life tenant s Id a part of the (state for something like a SIOO,OOO. In 1875 he parted with the family gems for about sl-5,000. Four years ago he sold the magnificent library with all its an cient and wonderful volumes for something like $300,000. Why this forage upon the property which came down from past gen erations freighted with the family history in its ancient and best days? It is a common rumor in England that the father sold the library, gems and a part of the estate, so that Lord Randolph Churchill, the younger brother of the present Duke, might have the income with which to MAKE HIS MARK IN THE WORLD. The father is said to have liked Lord Ran dolph much better than the eldest son, and therefore his dismantlement of Blenheim for his benefit. The Duke of Marlborough ought, nevertheless, to he a rich man. The statis tics say that his father left him £1411,000. The same authority says he was left, in addi tion To personalty, 28,571 acres of land, the rentals of which are put down at about. $150,000 per annum. Besides this, he has various perquisites, which amount to con siderably more. These figures seem very large, hut it Wits a mint of money to keep up this magnificent, establishment, where company is plenty, and the cost of main tenance is beyond comparison with anything known in the new world. The present Duke, following the example of liis father, has also parte l with a a few things from Blenheim. Only recently he sold tho Ma dmna’by Raphael for something like $300,- 000, and most of the English people say that never was money so foolishly expended. Yet thousands go to tho national gallery to see it, because it came from the palace and cost so much monov. Beside giving him Blenheim Palace, the English government in 1704 granted tho old Duke of Marlborough a pension of about $20,000 a year, to descend to his family for nil time. Some three years ago the present head of the Marlborough Palace, observing the growing animosity to pensions of this character, commuted this bequest and re ceived half a million dollars for his right. Thus the coming Duke loses the pension which has gone to the family since 1704. The common talk of the clubs is that he is providing for a rainy day, and that the millon dollars of money which he has received within the past few years has been INVESTED IN AMERICAN SECURITIES, so placed that in ease of emergency his fu ture would be assured. This may or may not be true, but the fact remains that the Duke of Marlborough is regarded as a sin gular man. Some say that he is a far-seeing man, and he may rea l in tho present agit.a tion a future ill-feeling toward royalty, es pecially such royalty as lives upon the repu tation of its ancestors and the bounty of the government. The Duke of Marlborough is a very able man. He rarely ever appears in the House of Lords, but when he does, lie speaks well and his remarks command at tention. Ho is only 42 years old. In stature he is hardly of medium size. His features are clean-cut and denote firmness and in telligence. He has a piercing eye and a pleasant expression or countenance that evinces good humor and perfect self-posses sion. Had he devoted himself to politics as he lias to the pleasure of the drawing room, he would have made a strong mark upon the higher life of Great Britain. His pas times have consumed so much of his atten tion that public life has been cheated of his best intellectual powers. It is still said of him, notwithstanding its lack of attention to important matters, that should England reach some trying emergency, the Du.ic of Marlborough would be a very strong man in her councils and, perchance, in the field. Lord Randolph Churchill, his lirother, is a few years younger than the Duke, a very brilliant and erractic man. He has neither the power or the brain of his older brother, but be has the restless, ambitious, forceful disposition which make him powerful and weak by turns. Yet he has dene great things At less than 40 years of age he has been Chancellor of tho Exchequer, ami is ambitious to be Premier. He is a man of many res mrres and considerable talent. lie is small of stature and nervous of action. Taking the two sons together, they illustrate in many ways tho WEAK AND FORCEFUL CHARACTERISTICS of the Marlborough strain which this palace and all its surroundings were created to glorify. The elder in the restful, intellec tual hero of the Churchill family. The other the restless, ambitious, combative and will ful spirit who represents the aggression of the elder Marlborough, without his physi cal or intellectual powers. He will succeed to the title and estate which follow Blen heim palace if anything should happen to his brother, the Duke of Marlborouga. No master of this magnificent estate is more than a life tenant. Each occupant must hand it over some day to the oldest son in the proper line of descent. Thinking of this point, I could not help but reflect that ono day au American girl may be mistress of this imjiortant hoUse. When Miss Jerome married Lord Randolph, I wonder if she had in her miud a life on this luxur ious scale. Her uncle Larry Jerome, was present on the occasion which gave me the chance for a description of this remarkable estate. He quaintly observed that his niece might some time in the future fittingly woar the honors which belong to this estab lishment. If this should be true, this Ameri can girl would have a grander house and a more dignified and lasting position than tho wife of the President or the United States. Blenheim Palace lacks a young mistress, as well as some other features of its early life. The present Duchess is tho mothor of the present heirs to this state and title. Tho wife of Marlborough was releosod from him through the divorce courts a few years ago. Tho Duchess is well along in years, and it is said of her that she is very fond of her younger soil, and that when sho dies Lord Randolph Churchill will be rich. As money is a very important element in the support of political ambition, a good round sum would not bo unwelcome to tho liveliest politician in England. Aside from those Bide lights of a great name and the reflections of a great name as it can tie seen in these Ixiautilm grounds, ami in this groat palace, there is so much of interest, so much of beauty, so much for study, that one feels ini]ielied to 'drop reflections upon the past, criticism of th- present, and tbouguts of tho future, in admiration of tho liberality, judgment and taste which Blen heim Palace illustrates.

CLEVELAND EPISODE. He Does Not Deny It, Nor Will He Say It Is True—Gen. Bushnell, of the Governor’s Staff, Declares that the Governor and His Wife Were Grossly Insulted. From the New York Worid. Columbus, 0., Sept. 20. —The World correspondent asked Gov. Foraker today to state what truth there was in the published report that Mrs. Cleveland treated Mrs. Foraker and himself with marked coldness at the President’s reception in Philadelphia last week. His reply was: “I do not care to make any statement concerning the matter. There were others who saw what Mrs. Foraker and I did and I refer you to them.” “But can you not say definitely, in a sin gle word, whether Mi’s. Cleveland treated Mrs. Foraker and yourself, or either of you, with discourtesy?” “I shall say nothing about it. I leave it to others to talk about the matter.” “Mr. Thompson, of Philadelphia, says in a private statement, that ho stood beside Mrs. Cleveland, and that when, at frequent intervals, she became weary of handshaking he personally directed the line of callers to }iass on without this form of salutation, and that this happened to be the case when you and Mrs, Foraker reached Mrs. Cleveland, without any intention on her part to omit you and without Mrs. Cleveland’s knowl edge of your proximity,” said the corres pondent. “What do you know about this?” “1 know nothing.” “Mr. Thompson further states that there was no disrespect shown or intended toward you. From Mr. Thompson’s position at the reception would he be capable of forming a correct judgment?” “1 know nothing about Mr. Thompson and cannot say.” “And you will not answer ‘yes’ or ‘no’ to the question whether disrespect was 'shown you?” “1 have already said I will not make a statement one way or the other about the matter.” Whatever may be the facts in the case, it is evident that Gov. Foraker is willing to have the impression go abroad here in Ohio that Mrs. Cleveland treated Mrs. Foraker and himself with the rudest discourtesy, without himself being responsible for the statement. It has been seized upon by the Ohio Republican leaders ns a campaign issue, and the Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette, Cleveland Leader, Columbus Journal and the other organs came out this morning with an identical statement that the President and Mrs. Cleveland made a private agree ment that the latter was to publicly insult the Governor and his wife because Gov. Foraker compared the President to a dog. Having agreed upon this story all the organs join in denouncing President Cleveland as a “cowardly cur for not insulting Ohio’s war like Governor instead of delegating the dangerous undertaking to his wife. ’ The Republican organs and orators are determined to run the campaign on a very high plane. Senator Sherman has not yet consented to make a speech criticising Mr. Cleveland, but as Foraker and his friends count him entirely out of the Presidential race it probably does not matter. SILENCE IN WASHINGTON. Washington, Sept. 20. —No official state ment regarding the alleged snubbing of Gov and Mrs. Foraker at Philadelphia by Mrs. Cleveland can be obtained at the White House. Neither the President nor Mrs. Cleveland will consent to be inter viewed on the subject. The friends of Gov. Foraker construe the silence at the White House into an admission of the charge. No one disputes tho fact that Mrs. Cleve land did not shake hands with the Governor of Ohio or his wife. Whether the omission to do so was intended as a snub is known only to Mi’s. Cleveland, and unless she makes known her intentions it will proba bly remain a mystery. It is quite evident that Gov. Foraker belives that he was snubbed ami will endeavor to make what capital he can out of it in the Ohio cam paign. Cincinnati, Sept. 20. —Gov. Foraker went to Georgetown, 0., to-day to attend a reunion of his regiment, the Eighty-ninth Ohio. He arrived at noon, aud was met at the depot by the members of the command, a band and a vast gathering of citizens. A carriage was provided for him, but he de clined it, and marched with the veterans to the place of meeting. GEN. BUSHNELL SPEAKS FOR HIM. Springfield, 0., Sept. 20. —In an inter view this evening with a representative of the Associated Press, Gen. A. S. Bushnell, a member of Gov. Foraker’s staff, authorized the following statement concerning Mrs. Cleveland’s reception of Gov. and Mrs. For aker at the Academy in Philadelphia last Friday evening: “Preceded by Gov. Beaver, of Pennsylva nia, and his staff, Gov. and Mrs. Foraker, and our party advancod to be received. Gov. Beaver and party were warmly greet ed by both the President and Mrs. Cleve land, who shook hands with them cordially. President Cleveland then shook hands with Gov. Foraker, hut his face was as expres sionless as that of a sphinx. The Governor presented Mrs. Foraker and the President shook hands with her. “Gov. Foraker was then introduced to Mrs. Cleveland, and extended his hand to her. She ;>aid no attention to his profferrod hand, but, taking a half-step backward and folding her hands, she stared straight at him without a sign of recognition. Appa rently giving no hoed to this direct cut, the Governor presented Mrs. Foraker. Mrs. Cleveland still stood with folded hands, de clining Mrs. Foraker’s extended hand, and acknowledging her presence only by a freez ing inclination of her head. “Gen. Axline and his wife wore presented to the President and Mrs. Cleveland, and both shook hands with them, and immedi ately afterward Mrs. Bushnell and myself were introduced and were received in the same cordial manner. The cut of Gov. and Mrs. Foraker whs Hindu more diroct by our reception than it would have been haul Mrs. Cleveland not shaken hands with the re mainder of tho Ohio party. It lias been stated that Mrs. Cleveland was riot slinking hands with any of her guests, but that is a great mistake, for she received both those who preceded and those who followed Gov. and Mrs. Foraker very cordially. Regret was expressed on all sides that the incident should have oc curred, for everybody felt that Mrs. Cleve land, as the first, lady of the land, could not afford to snub the Chief Magistrate of the third State in the Union, to suy nothing of ] the affront to a lady of Mrs. Foraker’s j beautiful character.” "Rough on Itch.” ‘‘Rough on Itch” cures skin humors, erup tions, ring-worm, tetter, salt rheum, frosted feet, chilblain*, itoh, ivy poison, barber's itch. 60c. jars.

INQUIRIES everywhere, even from rival mak er*, have elicited the same reply that Mason & Hamlin have brought the American organ to perfection, and thoroughly deserve the hun dreds of medals, etc., which they have received as awards in all countries. 1 recently saw the gold medal which was presented to them at the Inventions Exhibition. It was designed by Wyom, and is a true work of art. One could not spend a pleasanter morning anywhere than in the music room of the agents for these organs. There will bo found all sorts and conditions of American organs from those that can he packed In a box and conveniently carried to a camp meeting in a quiet by street to the famous Liszt model, which has no rival for power and lienuty of tone There is also the Queen's model, which received her majesty's warmest approbation. The Loudon music room of this firm, with its comfortable lounges and old engravings, is open to nil comers, and there you w ill meet in Its precincts the most cele brated musicians of the day.
