episode of ex Lieutenant Put nam Braulee Strong and Lady Francis Hope better known as May Yohe have died away since the couple left San Francisco for Japan there is much curiosity felt at Newport as to what action If any Lord Francis Hope will take against his wife and whether the Duke of Newcastle who is unalterably opposed to divorce will permit his brother to sue for divorce As the duke holds the pursestrings and Lord Francis has not a penny of his own the former will naturally have every thing to say on the subject Added to this curiosity is a deal of speculation as to the chances of May Yohes esca pade giving English society another American duchess The chances of the Hon Mrs Charles Stapleton Pelham Cilnton who was Miss Lizzie di Zerega of New York becoming the duchess of Newcastle would seem to be rather re mote but experience has proved that heirs to English titles much further re moved than is Airs Pelham Clintou have reached them Briefly summar ized Mrs Pelham Clintons chances of becoming the duchess of Newcastle de pend lpon Lord Francis Hopes di vorcing his present wife not marrying again or if he marries again not hav ing any children by his second mar riage The present duke has no heir and is not likely to have any Ijord Francis Hope is similarly situated as regards his present wife The duke dom heirs failing to the present duke and Lord Francis will pass if he sur vives the duke and Lord Francis to the Hon Charles Stapleton Pelham Clinton their first cousin Mr and Mrs Pelham Clinton have no children have been married fifteen years and are not likely to have an so that If the by chance should become the Duke and Duchess ot Newcastle the dukedom would pass in time to Mr Charles Pelham Clintons youngest brother -who is unmarried It would be a coincidence of the next Duchess of Newcastle would be an American a compatriot of the Duchesses of Man chester and Marlborough The Hon Charles Pelham Clinton is well known in New York where he lived for nearly ten years and where he married He is an exceedingly tall slightly built swarthy and handsome man and is now about 42 years old During his life in New York he was actively en gaged In newspaper work and was one of the best of the New York racing re porters New York Times CHARTREUSE LIQUEURS JUnlit or lurevliic Tlu ui fmltl to i Syndicate The Grande Chartreuse I read has sold the right of purveying its famous liquors to a syndicate Hitherto a lay brother has been at the head of this business Until comparatively recent times the signature of the Rev Pere Gamier on the label was the guaranty the purchaser required of the authentic ity of the contents of the llask which the gastronomer likes to find conve nient at his elbow at the coffee and cigarette stage of his repast Pere Gamier was an extremely shrewd man of business and more than one law suit bears evidence of the care with which he watched over the financial in terests of his society and the praise worthy promptness he evinced in com ing down on the falsifier and the forg er When he died not many years ago his place was difficult to fill Hence perhaps the present arrangement Something ot the kind had already been under consideration I hear the price the Chartreuse asked is put at 80000000 francs There are four va rieties of the liquor though only two are familial There is the Elixir which was once to be bought on the spot in wood cased bottles at the equiv alent of four-and-nine There is the Liquor Verte in the pint-and-a-half bottle the local charge for which was three-and-eight and the charge in London say four times that figure There is the Liquet Jaune less potent which has cost me two-and-six the reg ulation flask in the Chartreuse lodge And there is the Liquer Blanche oth erwise the Balm of the Chartreuse which used to be locally retailed at the same price as the Liquer Verte Some fifty plants seeds and flowers you are to understand go to the compilation of these delectable drinks the chief being the first shoots of the pine mountain pink mint balm thyme angelica and wormwood There is in fact a good deal more absinthe in green Chartreuse than is commonly supposed London Pall Mall Gazette
