THE SUNrfY SOUlti
Week in a Busy
World
Th» Sultan
HE United States is again
r l at outs with its old enemy,
I the sultan of Morocco, and
“ Consul General Gummere,
backed by the armored
cruiser New York. has been
ordered to go to Fez and
demand Immediate settle*
.-nent of the many claims
of the United States
against the sultan. The
New York 1s to take the
consul general to Mazargan
end land him there and_then cover the city
of Tangier with her guns until the claims
are satisfactorily settled. On a former
occasion action of this kind was effective
in opening the pocketbook of the sultan,
and it is believed that it will be effective
in this instance.
The claims which the state department
now has against the
sultan of Morocco
amount to about $.70.-
W-O and are due citi
zens of the United
States who have
been unjustly dealt
with by the provin
cial authorities of
Morocco. The hum
orous feature of the
otherwise serious sit
uation is the adapta
bility of the Morocco
court, which moves
from place to place
with the ease of an up-to-date furniture
van and thus keeps out of reach of cred
itors. The grand vlzer and minister of
•foreign affairs have threatened to move
the court from Morocco City if Mr. Guin-
mere goes there, and It is possible that
the consul general may have to search
Morocco for the elusive sultan.
The sultan has agreed to pay the Ezaqui
claim of $3,000, but has Ignored the set
tlement of other equally important claims
with a steadfast persistence. Some of
the claims are for American commercial
travelers who have been outraged, and in
other cases the property of Americans,
such as cattle and sheep, have been seized
by the provincial authorities.
If the consul general fails to secure an
immediate and satisfactory reckoning,
he will return to the New York, and the
sultan’s unwillingness to pay Just claims
will be paid for dearly by the city of
Tangier, the guns of the New York do
ing ^he work. There is hardly any like
lihood of war since the navy of Morocco
consists of only one warship.

A fitting tribute was paid former Pres
ident Benjamin Harrison last Sunday
when the forts and warships of the Unit
ed States In all parts of the world fired
salutes during the day.
A salute of thirteen guns was fired at
sunrise Sunday; one gun was fired every
half hour during the. day and at sunset
a salute of forty-live guns were fired.
Wherever there was a United States
warship that could be reached by cable
the orders of the war department w.ere
carried out. The ships and forts In the
Philippines, in China and Cuba and all
foreign ports paid this tribute, and the
entire world knew that the American
republic was doing a last honor to one of
Its' greatest men and statesmen; one
whose name stands out prominent on the
solid tablets of history among those who
are most loved and revered.
«F
General Botha, the Boer commander,
with whom General Kitchener has been
negotiating for peace In South Africa, has
has rejected the peace terms offered by
the British government, and another in
teresting chapter has been added to the
struggle for liberty in South Africa.
The complete details of the negotiations
have not yet been
announced, but
enough is known to
make it almost cer
tain that the terms
offered to the Boers
were of such a na
ture that a fight to
the end were better.
'This the Boers have
decided upon and a
renewal of hostilities
will doubtless begin
at once. It had been
supposed that the negotiations for peace
had been begun at the suggestion of Gen
eral Botha, but when it became* known
that the English government had pro
posed the negotiations, the feeling was
anything but satisfactory, and *he Eng
lish press declares that its government
has been placed in the attitude of having
its suit for peace turned down by the
Boers.
It was believed all along by those who
had watched developments in South Af
rica that the negotiations for peace would
result In a renewal of the war, since it
seemed certain, from England's former
attitude, that she would not offer the
Boers any conditions that would place
them on a much better footing than when
the war began.

Richard Mansfield, the famous actor,
who has galred a mere or less deserved
reputation as the possessor of a fiery tem
per, is now placed in a very unfavorable
role in the pale lime light of publicitv.
A super who was taking the part of 'a
soldier in Matjsfield's presentation of
"Henry V” in a Philadelphia theater in
curred the actor's displeasure, and while
the audierco looked on in amazement,
Henry the Fifth attacked the unfortu
nate super with a heavy lance. Inflicting I
a severe wouni, thus overlooking the fact
that the super was not of royal blood and
rculd not defend himself against the king.
But the law. which is no respecter of
royalty at least, not in this country—has
been appealed to. and Mansfield the great
must now suffer the indignity and hu
miliation of appearing as the principal in
a. tf.000 damage suit.

Russian students, both men and wo
men. were severely dealt with by the cos-
sacks In St. Petersburg, last Saturday,
when the students organized and attempt
ed to celebrate the anniversary of the
death of Vetora, a girl who committed
suicide some years ago in the dungeon of
the political prison in the fortress of St.
Peter and St. Paul In order to escape In
famous persecutions.
Press dispatches state that immense
crowds assembled In the principal streets
of the city and In the adjacent thorough
fares. The military, present In even
grs&ier numbers, closed the entrances to
all houses and shops and patrolled the
streets. The demonstration was mild,
since the cossacks used' their -whips in
driving back the people and Inflicted se
vere and brutal wounds, not even discrim
inating between men and women.
Fierce lighting ensued for a time, the
cossacks dismounting and using their
whips with terrible effect. The people
used stones and clubs, but could not cope
with tho soldiers, and 800 of their num
ber were arrested. The students went so
Botha
far as to attempt to desecrate one of the
cathedrals, thus displaying their disap
proval of the excommunication of Count
Tolstoi, and for a time the situation
was serious. This is the second clash be
tween the Russian students and soldiers
during the past month, and both times
the students came out of the affair much
the worse and gave the cossacks an op
portunity to show their brutality In a
manner seldom before heard of. \

Miss Elsie Waterbury, of New York
city, who is a member of the fashion
able oclcny at Aiken. 6. C., startled tlio
natives, especially the postmaster, last
week by riding her pony into the post-
office when she went for her mail and
could find no one to hold the horse.
Naturally the postmaster was somewhat
surprised and his surprise was succeeded
by anger, and, feeling that the dignity
of the nation had suffered by reason of
the young lady’s recklessness, he sought
out the municipal authorities and made
I a case against her in the mayor's court.
A fir.e of $3 was imposed without the ne-
; cessity of the appearance of the young
j woman in courc.

After amazing the world and winning
the lasting admiration of his countrymen
by gifts of millions of dollars, placed
where the most good will be done. An
drew Carnegie has sailed for Europe.
■Where he will spend several months
traveling and enjoying a well-earned va
cation. During his trip Mr. Carnegie will
visit the home of his boyhood in Scotland.
He has displayed his loyalty to his native
land In many ways and if it becomes the
Ibeneflclary of his further munificence
there will be no surprise.
Mr. Carnegie's last and greatest gift
was that of $3,200.-
000 to the city of
New York for the
e s t a blishment of
twenty-five free
libraries. The echo
of the expression
of praise at his gift
to old and injured
employees of the
Carnegie steel and
iron works had
hardly died away
■when came the
news of his latest donation. By ft series
of gifts, the benefit of which will be felt
by all classes of his countrymen, Mr.
Carnegie has placed himself more con
spicuously and more favorably in the pub
lie eye than has been the good fortune of
few -men. When some time ago Mr. Car
negie announced it as his belief that to
die rich was a sin and intimaited that he
would dispose of his fortune before he de
parted this life, his statement was ridi
culed in some quarters and the belief was
freely expressed that a man who had
worked so hard to amass a great wealth
would not dispose of it in such a manner.
However, it was not long before Mr.
Carnegie's gifts grew -larger and more
numerous and it became clear that he
was with judicious care carrying out the
-belief he had expressed. In disposing of
his wealth Mr. Carnegie has not confined
his liberality to any one section of the
country. North, south, east and west
have alike felt his munificence; neither
hit's he confined his gifts to the United
States. Scotland, his native land, has
bearing his name several beautiful li
braries that were made possible by his
gifts, and onlv recently he gave $30,000 ftfr
'th,. establishment of a public library in
Vancouver.
A list of Mr. Carnegie’s principal gifts
follows:
Carnegie Institute, Pittsburg $6,250,000
For 65 branch libraries in New
York 6,200,000
Pension fund for sick or aged
employees 5,000,000

Of all his gifts none has brought more
praise to Mr. Carnegie than his donation
of $5,000,000 for the endowment of a fund
for the superannuated and disabled em
ployees of the Carnegie company. Thi?
donation is one that stands unsurpassed
in the annals of the world and displayed
in Mr. Carnegie what is so often lacking
in men who have amassed fortunes—an
appreciation of the loyalty and faithful
ness of the men who, in a measure, made
his success possible. It is safe to say
that no gift will bring so much benefit
to so many who deserve it.
In his gift of $5,200,000 to the city q£
New York Mr. Carnegie reaches the cli
max and his name and record will go
down to posterity as that of one man who
did not abuse the trust of Providence
when it gave him the stewardship of a
great fortune.

Count Boni de Casteliane's duel with
Editor Fernand De
Rodays. which grew
out of an article in
The Figaro, and the
manner in which he
conducted himself
on that occasion
was doubtless a
matter of surprise
to those who knew
of the careless man
ner in which he
handled his wife's
fortune and who
had not kept posted
on his career as a
fighter. Americans, perhaps, who held
Count Boni in contempt on account of
his caddish attitude toward clamoring
creditors supposed he was making a
bluff and would have the matter satis
factorily adjusted or arrange for the po
lice to appear at an opportune moment.
The braggadocio of his position, however,
was entirely in keeping with the egotism
of his character. The duel of last week
was the fourth successful encounter in
which he has been one of the principals
and he has engaged in several other af
fairs in which an actual meeting was
not necessary.
In January. 1898, the count fought a
duel with M. Deroulede, in which both
were slightly wounded. In July of the
same year he fought M. Henri Turov
and badly wounded his opponent. In
January. 1899, he chailenegd M. Perret
Ducemoux to a duel to the death. In
June of the same year he insulted Prime
Minister Dupuy. who ignored the attack.
In July of that year he challenged the
prince of Monaco to a duel with swords,
but the prince declined the challenge on
the ground that the count’s title was bo-
OUz
Castellan*
gus. During January, 1900, while in the
United States, he threatened to fight M.
De Rodays to the' death. In March of
the same year he offered to take the
place of Count Robert Rothschild in an
affair with Count de Lubersac in which
Rothschild was disqualified on account
of his youth. In July, 1900, he fought a
duel with Count Orlowskl, wounding him
in the thorax. Last week he fought his
most recent duel and was this time the
successful combatant.
Since the announcement of the Illness of
President Diaz, of
Mexico, i^reat in
terest has been felt
i n his condition
through out the
world, and espe
cially in the United
States. It was in
timated that the
mind of Mexico's
greatest statesman
was badly affected,
«nd out of this re
port grew the story
of his illness. Re
lief wa3 felt when it was declared that
the president was in his uSual health, al
though suffering somewhat from close
confinement to official duties. The death
or retirement of Diaz from the presidency
of Mexico at this time would doubtless
have unfortunate results and it would be
difficult to find a man of such great will
power and of such overwhelming popular
ity.
*
It is announced that another relief ex
pedition will be sent to the arctic regions
in . search of Peary. The Peary Arctic
Club has chartered a steamer, which will
be sent to find the Windward, which was
the fourth and last vessel sent after the
great explorer. The Windward departed
from North Greenland August 20, 3900,
with definite instructions not to remain
north except under express orders of Mr.
Peary, and the inference is that the party
wintered at Mr. Peary's headquarters.
Mrs. Peary and her daughter were with
this expedition. The next steamer will
not take any passengers. Letters advis
ing Mr. Peary of the new expedition will
be dispatched to the Dundee (Scotland)
whalers, who •will leave them at Cape
York.
*
The attitude of King Leopold, of Bel
gium, toward gambling has created little
less than a scandal in royal circles. It
is said that the king has been making
personal appeals to members of the BeL
jrium senate to vote against an act in
tended to put down the gambling business.
Gambling in Brussels and other Belgium
cities has increased to such an extent as
to become a great evil, but the act is
aimed especially at Ostend, the Belgium
Monte Carlo, and those who are criticising
the king announce they hold the proof
that he holds a profitable interest in this
resort.
*
Salt Lake City, Utah, has been the cen
ter of interest to the religious and politi
cal world during the consideration of the
polygamy bill by tho governor and gen
eral assembly of that state. The bill
passed the general assembly, hut was ve
toed by the governor. The bill placed such
restrictions and limitations on the prose
cution of polygamy as to make convic
tion a matter of almost impossibility. In
vetoing the bill Governor Wells has in
curred the strong disapproval and last
ing enmity of political factions.

her hair combed," the great "tonSorial”
artist having been Mr. Frederick Law
Olmstead, the famous landscape archi

Money has been poured out like water
in the beautifying of this baronial estate.
In the construction of its sixty miles of
roads, with numerous viaducts, costing
from $8,000 to $10,000 each, bordered by
millions of plants from the finest nurse
ries and arboretums in the world.
Southward from the "Land of the Sky"
lies Aiken, where among the pines are
to be found many homes for winter only,
notably the residence of Mr. William C.
Whitney, whose Fifth avenue palace in
New York is not far from the Vander
bilts' and who has a charming place, with
fine scenery and delightful climate. His
winter home is less pretentious than the
Vanderbilt mansion at Asheville, but is
a fine example of the old southern colo
nial type, with a broad veranda 175 feet
long, an interior combining comfort with
elegance, a large reception hail and a
magnificent fireplace.
The farther south one goes the greater
Augustine, with Its soft airs and oriental
architecture, the latter so admirably sup
plemented by the great trio of hotels, the
Ponce de Leon, the Alcazar and the Cordo

ing the price—and not only here, but all
'along both coasts of the Peninsular State.
Not many years ago such places as Tam
pa, Indian River, Kissimmee, Punta Gor-
da. Lake Worth, Miami and a host of
other attractive spots were considered be
yond the reach of the average winter
tourist, but now they are the abodes of
luxury and wealth. By means of Steam

the intervening seas to Havana, in Cuba,
or Nassau, in the Bahamas and thence

On the Pacific coast we find more really
permanent residences than on the south

L ADY MARY SACKVILLE. sister of
the present Earl de la Warr, s count
ed, on both sides of the Atlantic, the
most versatile as well as one of the most
beautiful members of very fashionable
society. Not only is Lady Mary a musi
cian. an artist and an expert yachtswo
man: not only has she explored every
part of the United States as well as Eu
rope. large districts of Africa, Asia and
the South sea islands, but she proved to
the delighted amazement of her American
friends that the fair sister of an English
earl was far more deeplt' versed in do
mestic accomplishments than many of
the wives of republican millionaires. It
happened that on her last visit to “the
states" Lady Mary made one in a smart
country house party. The first evening
of the guests’ arrival the hostess ; had
planned a brilliant dinner party. An
hour and a half before the feast was
due to appear on the table the cools in a
huff dropped the reigns of culinary gov
ernment and left for the city. The hos
tess' despair verged on hysteria and, as
luck would have it, the cause of her
distress came to the ears of the pretty
English visitor, who instantly rushed to
the rescue. Tving a large apron over
her tea gown, the tail of which was se
cured by pins from contamination by
the kitchen floor, the daughter of a dozen
earls descended to the basement. The
distracted kitchen maid, who was tearful
ly protesting her ignorance of the meth
ods of strange French dishes and unique
salads, was relieved at once of responsi
bility and the titled but thoroughly ex
pert cook shouldered herself with all the
cares and honors of the situation. Order
emerged from chaos, the demoralized ser
vants flew about as if on wings, and.
when the butler announced dinner, only
the host and hostess and Lady Mary
knew how catastrophe and famine had
been ably averted. The guests, however,
were enlightened when the host rose,
glass in hand, at the finale of the deli
cious meal and toasted the charming and
blushing cuisiniere.

T was once the fashion for
^the foreign aristocracy to
decry America as unfit for
residence at any season
because, forsooth, we had
no ruins, no castles, no
high-bred society. But now
it is no longer their wont
to condemn us for the lack
of these things, as It has
•been shown that we have
ruins antedating any Eng
land can produce, castles
that cost more than any old chateau to
be found in France and a cultured society
that yields nothing to the best in Europe.
It was a dreadful blow to the foreigners
when the scientists declared that Amer
ica, judging from the ancient remains ex
humed, was the older of the two hemis
pheres; a great shock to their pride when
our multimillionaires began the erection
of castles and chateaus that made the
best of theirs look cheap and tawdry by
comparison. But they consoled themselves
for the elevation of our best society by
coming over and marrying the wealthier
female members thereof, thus in a way
exacting reparation for their lost prestige.
Although a few of our new rich have
expatriated themselves in order to have
the opportunity to fawn upon the Brit
ish aristocracy and to indulge in the hope
of a title in the far prospective, the most
of them have eommendably stuck by the
country in which they or their ancestors
made their fortunes.
There is no excuse whatever now for
anyone to “go abroad” at any season of
the year. In addition to educational ad
vantages, which are of recent origin, we
have a range of climate and variety of
natural attractions unsurpassed in the
world, which have been part and parcel
of our great domain for ages. There is no
reason for seeking the soft airs of the
Riviera, the blue waters of the Mediterra
nean or the tonic breezes and famed scen
ery of the Alps while we have a Florida,
a California, the Alleghanies and the
Rockies within our borders.
Realizing the fact that every factor for
the perfect winter resort now exists at
home, those of our citizens who can do
so have availed themselves of the oppor
tunities offered for out of door life in the
colder months of the year, and many
whose permanent residences pertain to
the north have established temporary
homes in the soutlj.
The human, migrants follow the birds
in their southward journeyings, only be
ginning their migrations several months
later, and at this time, in the middle of
Lent, the resorts are full to overflowing,
and all the winter houses are occupied.
Beginning with Lakewood and Atlantic
City and taking in Washington and the
resorts of the Caroiinas, the seekers for
summer sunshine in winter find their
final resting place for a few short weeks
or months in Florida, Cuba or the Baha
mas, returning northward after Lent is
over. The season for the great hotels
along the fouth Atlantic coast extends
only from January to April, inclusive,
being short and sweet.
It is in that famous county known as
Euncombe, in North Carolina, near the
town of Asheville, that we find the most
conspicuous example of a winter palace
—which, by the way, eon be occupied ail
the year round with comfort—in Mr.
George W. Vanderbilt’s magnificent ma
nor, Biltmore House, which has been
called the finest private residence in the
United States. This lordly home, in the
center of a more than princely estate,
with its outside wails 375 feet by nearly
200; its vast banquet hall, with ceiling
sixty-five feet high; a reception room
larger than the auditorium of a church
of the average size; its vast conservatory,
stocked -with ail the choicest botanical
products of the world; its well equipped
jibrary; its "rampe douce” lying against
a hillside, with spraying fountains in
which the rainbows are reflected, and its
stupendous esplanade, from which are
afforded mountain views unsurpassed—
this home, which represents an expendi
ture of more than $2,000,000, eclipses most
of the inhabited castles of the old world
in the grandeur of its conception and
equipment.
The estate surrounding it aggregates
100,000 acres and is said to be surpassed
in extent by only one other in the United
States, which also belongs to a member
of the Vanderbilt family and lies in the
the number of homes for temporary oc
cupancy until, as Florida is reached, they
are so numerous as to preclude specifica
tion, for the vast development of the
railroad system of that state has opened
up to the tourist regions which a few
years ago were practically Inaccessible.

tels and boarding houses; then St.
ALUMINUM HOUSES A POS
SIBILITY
T WO years ago when the Klondike
* fever was at its highest point, one
man saw the necessity of establishing
living places for the many who were
bound to those gold laden regions. He
conceived the idea of making small
houses of aluminum, and carried out
his idea by having sheets of proper size
made, for shipment there. Possibly that
was the first time aluminum entered in
this way into house construction. The
lightness of the white metal, combined
with the manner in which it could be
stored away, had recommended Itself as
being superior to any other material for
the purpose desired.
At the Pan-American exposition visitors
will have the opportunity of seeing a
small building made, of aluminum. Alumi
num is manufactured at Niagara falls
with the use of the electricity generated
there in large quantities. Niagara falls
Is the principal aluminum manufactur
ing place in the world, and the white
metal is a product of the two principal
factories located there, current being
taken from both of the great power com
panies.
This Pan-American structure, that is to
be made of aluminum will be located in
the Manufactures and Liberal Arts build
ing. In shape it will be octagonal, and it
will be as large as can be built in a space
of fifteen fee.t square. The height will
be about twenty-two feet, and it will be
made of No. 24 sheet. The architecture
will represent the Spanish re
naissance, practically the same
style adopted for the build
ings of the great exposition. Its lines
will be graceful, and there will be a
beauty about it that will win new ad
miration for aluminum. No doubt the
presence of this building at the exposi
tion will suggest numerous ideas to In
ventive minds whereby aluminum in sim
ilar sheets may be utilized to add to the
portion of the year.
' No, Indeed; there is no necessity for any
resident of the United States to go across
the water for a change of climate or for
enticing scenery. Uncle Sam has provided
for all his subjects the most varied, the
most fascinating and the most satisfying
attractions to .be found anywhere in the
universe and at the lowest possible cost,
whether reckoned in comfort or in dollars.
lightness and beauty of various struc
tures. Pure aluminum is so white, and
silvery in appearance that it will be
hard for many to believe that the build
ing is not a genuine silver palace. It
will be a new spectacle, in the architect
ural line, and old as well as young will
be interested in it. During recent years
the price of aluminum has been so re
duced that it has now reached a point
where it comes in close and successful
competition with several of the other
cheap metals. This is why it enters into
the manufacture of so many articles, the.
display of which at the Pan-American
exposition will excite much favorable
comment.
