‘Jewels Look Best on Pigs'
+•+ v«4- +•+ +•+ +•-!• .«.*+
So Says Polaire, the Dancer
Three Wiborg Sisters Sensation
of Season — Alfonso Takes
Hand in Polo Challenge.
Is 'Ugliest Woman in Paris’
Polaire, the Paris daneer, and the stuffed pig upon which she
arranges her jewels. Both are coming soon to America.
By W. ORTON TEWSON.
LONDON, Aug. 23.—The "Three
Beautiful Wiborge." the sensations
of Londoa's social season, will sail
next week for their home on Long
Island. Their mother will follow aft
er a brief recuperation In Scotland.
Never have any Americans caused
such a furore in society here. Re
cently the comparison has been made
with the famous Gunning sisters, of
Huntingdonshire, who "captured”
London in the eighteenth century.
The eldest of the trio, Mary Hoyt
Wiborg, is a brunfette; Sarah, the sec
ond, Is fair, as ia the youngest, Olga.
All three dress exquisitely, but never
too much, and although clever and
talented, they never over-display
these gifts. They play the mandolin
and banjo, sing delightfully and are
adepts at modern dancing. In brief,
they are all-round, companionable,
charming girls, who are not spoiled
by admiration.
Enter Smartest Set.
The Wiborgs soon found themselves
in the heart of London't smartest set.
Princessi Christian and Princess Vic
toria entertained them, and among
their close friends are the Duchess of
Manchester, the Duchess of West
minster, Lady Curzon, Lady Drog
heda, Lady Essex, Mrs. Patrick
Campbell, Lady Maidstone and Lady
Cunard. Their next visit to England
is eagerly awaited.
It js not generally known that it
was King Alfonso during his recent
rather furtive visit to England who
suggested to Lord Ashby St. Ledgers
that If the British team again chal
lenged America for the polo cup Mad
rid should bo the scene of practice
work.
King Alfonso, who is a keen polo
player, pointed out that the uncer
tainty of the English spring made
team work impossible, and Lord Ash-
• bv St. Ledgers, who Is better remem
bered ao the Hon. Ivor Guest, jumped
at the idea. He is quite rich enough
to send a representative team to
America next summer.
Has U. S. Sister-in-Law.
Lord Ashby has several American
connections. His brother. Captain
Frederick Guest, married Miss Amy
Phipps, daughter of Henry Phipps,
the steel millionaire; his younges'
brother. Oliver, married the Ameri
can widow', Mrs. Dodge.
Through his mother he Is a first
cousin of the Duke of Marlborough,
also Winston Churchill. His father,
Lord Wimborne, belongs, however, al-
toaetfler to the aristoracy and made a
great fortune in the iron and coal
trade. The sons have been singu
larly lucky in politics and in choosing
wealthy wives.
The Countess of W arwick, so far
as society is concerned, has not ex
isted for more than a year. She tool!
no part whatever in the social gaye-
tles of the last season, and her friends
did not even know her movements.
The trouble is that the Earl and
Countess are In financial difficulties.
Some years ago the Earl, who has
made himself useful in public capac
ities, converted part of the Warwick
estates into a limited liability com
pany, but how the company has pros
pered very few seem to know.
Became Rabid Socialist.
The Countess was for a time a rag
ing Socialist. This was after the late
King Edward had turned his back up
on her. Her Socialism was combined
with the most reckless personal ex
penditures, and even some of her
great admirers, like Will Thorne, the
Socialist member of Parliament, be
gan to be rather doubtful about the
democratic principles so ardently ad
vocated by the Countess.
In fact, during the last ten years
Lady Warwick seems to have entirely
cost her former great position in so
ciety.
Lady Sybil Cutting’s decision to re
cover her British nationality has
caused no surprise in English society,
for it has long been known that her
family has brought every influence to
bear to prevent her from remaining
an American citizen.
Her husband was of the well-known
American family. Since her widow
hood Lady Sybil lived chiefly at her
charming villa close to Florence,
where she entertains much in the
winter and spring.
Father Proud of Lineage.
Lord Desart, her father, who has a
beautiful Irish place in County Kil-
larney, has great wealth and is very
proud of his descent from the Cuffes
of Creech St. Michael, who received
their coat of arms in the time of
Henry II.
He has held many public appoint
ments, including that of King’s Pro
tector. His wife was a daughter of
the late Lord Harewood, and he Is
greatly delighted that Ills daughter
will again become a. British subject
Indeed, he would not be at all dis
pleased If she decided to efface the
past by marrying a British aristocrat,
but Lady Sybil has lived long enough
In the United States to be a keen ad
mirer of all things American, so she
does not share her relatives' enthu
siasm.

Special Cable to The American.
HAMBURG, Aug. 23.—A new indus

Also Is One of the* Cleverest of Parisiennes; Her
Scheme to Advertise a Perfujne.
Special Cable to The American.
PARIS, Aug:. 23.—Polaire. the
dancer and actress, who declares that
she is the ugliest woman In Paris,
and who is recognized generally as
one of the cleverest, will soon be on
her way to New York with her origi
nal perfume, her ideas about jewelry
and her stuffed pig.
The pig is ugly, but like its owner,
who will join Gertrude Hoffman and
Lady Constance Stewart-Richardson
in a great three-star tour of America,
is Interesting. On its ungraceful neck
the dancer places her jewels, for she
declares that is the appropriate place
for gems.
Has Two Life Missions.
Polaire’s idea caused much com
ment. Those who had jewels scowled;
those who did not laughed, but Po
laire believes she has two missions
in life. One is to dance and the oth^r
to explain that jewels are best used
to adorn a pig.
“I certainly shall take my pig to
America,” she said recently. I be
lieve I shall have as much reason to
show It there as I have had here
Paris, and as I had in other places *n
Europe.
“Perhaps it will do no good. I have
only my art to consider; I have no
room for jewels. My pig is welcome
to them.”
Incidentally Polaire has demanded
of her American managers, Comstock
& Gest, that no one but she in the
throe-star tour shall use perfume of
any kind oh the stage, the train or
elsewhere. She says she will refuse
to leave France unless she has this
guarantee.
Her rerfume Is Subtle.
“I have a delicate, subtle perfume.”
she declares. "No one else can pur
chase or use it. It is so delicate that
any other scent would interfere with
my enjoyment of it. and unless I am
assured that Miss Hoffman and Lady
Constance will use no perfume at all,
I can not consent to go to America.”
It is said that Polaire has a con
tract with a Paris perfumer who is 10
pay her 25,000 francs to advertise n
the United states an “exclusive” per
fume he will soon put on the market.
Ex-Premier Clemenceau’s. new pa
per, L'Homme Libre, gives this week
a solution of,a problem which has
been puzzling all Paris: Why has
Polaire started the extraordinary
fashion of wearing a gold ring in her
nose at a well-known watering place?
Mile. Polaire declares, according to
the paper, that she adopted the Zulu
style in jewelry simply In order to
avoid being again billed In New York,
as “the ugliest woman on earth.”
Now, she says, American managers
are simply bound to feature her as
“the only living actress who wears a
ring in her nose.”
Czar's Alarm Bell
System Works Well
Crazed Aviator Tries to Force En
trance and Entire Winter Pal
ace Is Aroused.
Special Cable to The American.
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 23.—Tho
alarm bells of the Winter Palace
were set ringing the other day by a
terrified watchman, who found him
self In a fight with a man forcing his
\vay in and demanding to see the
Emperor, who was at that time at
the Peterhof Palace.
The invader was overpowered and
proved to be Otochkin, one of the
earliest Russian aviators, who recent,
ly has come down In the world.
The Incident served as a dramatic
rehearsal of the entire system of
alarms, armed guards and secret
protection which ig set to work im
mediately if any stranger seeks to
force his way into any of the Czar's
residences.

Turkey Offers Art
Treasures for Loan
Even With Imperial Museum Collec
tion as Security, London
Financiers Shy.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON, Aug. 23.—Turkey has
been trying to raise a. loan In Lon
don, offering aa security the antique
treasures in the Imperial Museum at
Constantinople.
The security evidently is not appre
ciated, for so far the loan haa not
materialized.
That Turkey Is willing to pledge
her treasures proves how dire are
her financial straits, for the Imperial
Museum Is one of her most jealously
guarded possessions.
The Turkish Government has in
creased the collections without cost,
as archaeologists have been allowed
to work in the Holy Land only on
condition that they sent their finds
to the museum.
19 IN TO GET
Americanese Puts “Punch" in
Poetry, According to One
English Admirer.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON. Aug. 23.—The American
language, says a writer in the Lon*
don Daily Express, Is developing a
new literature which is Imaginative,
metaphoric and full of color, besides
being the time-saving device of the
age. It is the shorthand of spoken
languages.
Precisely wfyat Is this remarkable
language? he asks. Some one de
fined cauliflower as plain cabbage
with a college education. In the same
way it may be said that American
is simply th e well-known slang with
a university training. It Is super
slang.
To illustrate, let us take a word
which is a marvel of condensed de
scription. Suppose I wanted to say
of a man that he was clumsy, futile,
helpless and undesirable; that he was
slovenly in his manner and shabby In
his dress; that he was intellectually
insignificant and spiritually nil; that
he never minded his own business and
meddled with every one else’s; that
his presence was an abomination to
me—if I Wanted to say all this, and
*a little bit more, I should merely de
clare that he was a “gink.”
It is this pregnant, compact quality
which especially recommends Ameri
can for poetic use.
Ragging the “Red, Red Rose.”
Suppose Robert Burns had writ
ten his exquisite “Red, Red Rose” in
American instead of English. For
tenderness in the exaltations of a
loved one, American is unrivaled.
Witness;
O my luve’s a red, red rose.
She's a pippin, she’s just rippin’,
she’s a bear!
She can turkey-trot and tango,
She’s a quince, O she’s a mango,
She’s the candy kid for fair.
Are you there?
O my luve’s like a red, red rose.
Just take it from me, kid, she’s a
, dream, she’s a scream.
Pipe her in her glad rags there.
I should worry! She’s a bear!
She’s all peaches and cream.
Get a gleam!
And would not Byron's “Maid of
Athens” be infinitely more expressive
in American?
Maid of Athens, ere 1 beat it.
Give me back my heart—I need it.
Cut. O cut that taffy, please!
Stop your teasin’.
Quit the'squeezin’.
I implore you on my knees.
I’ll admit you got me going
And my love for you is growing,
But ’s enough, kid.
Call the bluff, kid,
I’ve got your number and I'm wise,
There’s.no use your making eyes.
Not only in the language of love
is American so rich. It can be
mellifluous or bitter, as you wish. It
can express hatred as eloquently as
affection, and that is more than can
be said of English. Byron was
severely handicapped whe nhe wrote
his critcism of Scotch reviewers.
Slanging Byron's Diatribe.
How infinitely more stingiflg he
could have been had he had the
average Yankee’s knowledge of Amer
ican.
You two-for-a-nickel Scotch review
ers,
You're nothing but a bunch of brew
ers.
You’ve got my goat, but by Hank!
you’ll rue it.
I’m on the job and I’ll beat you to it.
You’re just a lot of pikers from piker-
land.
Why can’t you boost a poet with the
glad, glad hand?
You’re a bunch of beany ginks; a
gang of piffly gooks,
You gollywobblfe, runty-punty, lolly-
pop spooks!
You’ve missed your right vocations;
You'd have been just simply grand
As nifty engineers of Antonio’s pea
nut stand.
So fade away. Beat it! Twenty-
three! You’re full of flies.
Just put an egg in your goldarnod
shoe and beat it! Are you wise?

LONDON, Aug. 23.—George Ade re
marked recently: ”1 should think an
Englishman would feel lonely in Lon
don these days.” This describes the
situation exactly, for London to-day
is a veritable Imposition on the friend
ly foreigners, most of whom are
Americans
The annual homeward rush has be
gun and the steamship offices In the
neighborhood of Gockspur street are
dally thronged with anxious tourists
eager to get home, only to be told in
a majority of cases, “Sorry, but we
are full up until the end of Septem
ber.”
It Is true that a large number of
travelers wait almost until the last
moment before going to secure return
accommodations, hence inevitable dis
appointment and in some cases even
more serious results.
Mrs. Bradley Martin wishes to be
known In future as Mrs. C. S. Brad*
ley Martin, that is, Mrs. Cornelia
Sherman Bradley Martin, in order to
be distinguished from her daughter-

Bradley Martin.
Fantastic Prices Paid.
Americans still are dominating the
Scottish shootings, a sport that ex
ceeds in cost any* other. A host
easily spends $50,000 in two months
arid the canny Scot landowners are
profiting largely by thef American In
terest in grouse shooting on the
moors. They are renting famous
properties at fantastic prices.
Equally heavy expenses fall on the
guests who must p>ay enormous tips
to gamekeepers and “Gillies,” and all
values have risen north of Carlisle
owing to the American influx.
In the olden days grouse shooting
was a simple diversion with lunch
taken t*» the moors in laborer fashion;
under the American system, lunch is
now a magnificent repast spread at
tables, with champagne, salmon and
other delicacies, whil • fleet motor cars
are essential for every large shooting
party.

PARIS, Aug. 23—Seldom, if ever,
has this city been so dull—so almost
dead—as during the past week.
Life seemed to have deserted Paris,
the Boia was empty and the allure

Now, slowly but surely, the town Is
waking from Its summer sleep; an

thousands, and once again the streets

ROME, Aug. 23.—Monsignor James
Sereggi, Albanian Archbishop of Scu
tari, was a recent visitor at the Vat
ican, where he was received by th©
Holy Father and Cardinal Del Vai,'
Papal Secretary of State, to whom h©
made a detailed report of existing,
conditions in the newly born state or
Albania.
Later, in a talk with The American,
representative, the Archbishop said,
the world must not entertain glow
ing hopes as to the future of Albania,,
as it will be years before his unhappy
country can enjoy the blessings oft
civilization. .
According to the Archbishop, the
organization of the State Will be on©!
of the hardest problems which mod-*
cm civilization has confronted.
Whether peace will be restored to
that country and whether it will b©
organized In a way that will prevent
discord depends upon the spirit with,
which they undertake the extremely
delicate task.
“Albania, or rather the territory
within the borders fixed for the new
nation by the Ambassadors’ Confer
ence in T/onqon,” Archbishop Sereg
gi said, “can bo compared to a group
of children with whom their tender
mother must deal according to their
needs, their age and mental develop
ment.
“Will the nations most directly in
terested In the future of Albania set
aside their aspirations for economi
cal and political expansion and con-
lino their efforts to insuring the wel
fare of the country?”
The Archbishop refused to give hlS ;
views on trie surrender of Scutari to
the Montenegrins, saying history!
would in due time reveal many facts
of which the world still Is Ignorant.
“The old Scutari,” he said, “is now
a wilderness of dilapidated buildings
and black ruins. The marks of th©
long siege will be visible for year©
to come, and some of them are in
delible. The cathedral was hit by 40
shells from siege guns of large cali
ber.
“To-day a ragged population of
mr-n. women and children, impover
Ishod by the last days of Ottoman
rule, roam through the ruins helpless
from months of suffering.”
