The Romantic Story Ended in America at
an Auction Store in a Most Unromnntio
Way, Owing to the Prince’s Gambling
and Other Vices.
Oscar Wilde said that the worst part of
owing blue china was that one had to
live up to it. The Prince Alexandrovitch
Galitzine, who came from Paris about
three seasons ago, owned one of the finest
collections of blue china. in existence, but
he failed to live up' to it, for the entire
lot, together with an immense collection
of bric—a—brac, bronzcs, furniture and rare
paintings, was recently sold at auction to
satisfy the Prince’s formidable array of
debts, which, be it said, he has contracted
in wooing the god of chance, and in-
cidentally enriching bookmakers at the
race tracks.
The Prince comes from a royal Russian
family, and for the last few seasons has
been courted by society in New York and
at Newport. Before he came to the
metropolis he had electrified gay Paris
by the magnificence of his establish-
ments, the gorgeousness of his carriages
and the extravagance of his entertaim
ments.
His' feasts rivalled the spreads of the
most noted epicures and his guests carried
away diamonds and other precious stones
as souvenirs of their visits. The Prince,
young and handsome and the leader of a.
gay and titled set, made the fashion.
The news of his wild life and of his
extravagant manner of betting, as well
city talking, caused sonic of the royal
persons with whom he was a pet to turn
from him. The result was that Prince
Alexandrovitch shook the dust of the
Bois de Bologna from his patent leathered
feet and came to New York.
Here his fame had preceded him, and
a certain romantic story was told .n many
swagger boudoirs. It was this: Anna, of
Russia, who was a beautiful and capri-
cious queen, once fell in love with one of
her courtiers, a noble prince of the
realm, whose blood was as blue as many
generations of nobility could make it.
She was not coy in expressing her attache
ment, and, although she was married at
the time, she delicately expressed to him
her wish that they might love forever
and aye, and laughed at any restraints
which convention had placed upon such
aunion.
The Prince, whose ideas of love were
still young 'and beautiful, declined the
offered favors, and Anna, of Russia, set
about to concoct a scheme of revenge.
She hit upon a. most fiendish one. The
night that the haughty but injudicious
Prince refused her last appealfor his
love she issued a mandate that on the
morrow he be married to the lowest scul-
ion in the royal kitchen. The marriage
was performed, and the wretched bride.
groom and his wondering spouse were
conveyed to an ice palace, where it was
supposed they would die during the
night.
ut the scullion had a heart and soul,
despite her low station, and she set to
work to preserve the beautiful. young
Prince. She succeeded so well that on
the morrow Anna, of Russia, heard that
the couple were still living.
She sent them to Siberia, and there the
Prince was seized with a fever, and when
he recovered he heard that the cruel
Queen was dead, and he and his bride,
whom he had learned to love on account
of her devotion to him and her heroism,
were allowed to return to Russia, where
they came into their own again.
The present Prince Galitzinc, who
fluctuated between Newport, Tuxedo and
New York for the last few seasons, was
looked upon with favor by chaperones
and mammas. The news of his immense
wealth and rumors of the magnificent
establishment which he intended starting
in the city this winter caused hint to be
courted everywhere, for, of course, a
young society Prince would entertain
lavishly if he took a house and furnished
it with all the priceless art treasures
which were in storage waiting for use.
Then the young Prince’s gambling
losses began to be talked about. The
family jewels, which had been given in
charge of his banker, were one, by one
pledged for thousands of dollars, for the
jewels are magnificent, and are said to be
worth millions.
The final blow came when the furni—
ture, paintings and art treasures were
placed in the rooms of a New York auc-
tion house for public sale. The last of
the Galitzine diamonds had been pawued,
and there was nothing left to do, for the
fact is the Priuce is in pawn. Onlya.
short time ago his sister wrote him from
Russia that he could return and claim
another vast estate which awaits him
there, but when he applied for his pass-
port to the Russian Consul he found him-
self so much in debt to that personage
that he could not leave the country. ._
Hair Growing on a Horse Blanket.
Mr. William H. Forbes of. Spencer Cor-
ners, Fulton county, N. Y., is the pos-
sessor of a very old horse blanket, which
differs from its fellows in that it hasa
well-defined coat of hair in various stages
of development, alive and growing.
While possibly of a. finer and silkier
texture, it is an excellent reproduction of
a horse’s cost, which the blanket formerly
covered. . .
Mr. Forbes first discovered this peculi-
arity in October last, when taking it
down from the peg in the barn, where it
had hung undisturbed during the sum-
mer. He Was naturally greatly astonished
to discover two patches of growing hair,
one on either side, where it had been ex-
posed to the light and air. The hair is
of a. bright bay color and is now fully an
inch in length. Probably the most pecu~
liar feature of the affair, however, is the
fact that the hair has spread from the
two patches until it has entirely covered
the blanket with a fine growth, varying
in shade and color. It has not only been
subjected to a critical inspection by sev-
eral reputable men, but it has undergone
a microscopic test by two prominent
physicians, of whom Dr. Henry C. Finch
of Broadalbin makes affidavit, before
Judge Gardner, “that the hair now grow—
ing on the blanket is true hair, and,that
the roots of the same are alive and in pro-
cess of development-.”—Albany Times
Union.
Edison’s Time Not Up Yet.
An English reviewer says that “Thom«
as Alva Edison is, perhaps, the most mar-
velous and characteristic achievement of
the American continent. He has in-
vented more things at 47 than any other
man ever invented in a whole lifetime,
but he is not used up.”
It is interesting to learn that Edison’s
great grandfather diedat 10?, his grund<
Newsboys warm—r“-
as other particular doingsflwhich set the '
father at 103, and one of his aunts at 108, '
' while his father is alive at 90.
