BOSSES AND GOVERNORS. There are no illusions in New York as to the attitude of the Repubdli- an bosses. They do not Ike Gov. Hughes and they do not Nke his re forms. Mr. Hughes, however, {a stronger than the bosses, He has beaten them more than once. He may beat them again On the Democratic aide of the house the situation !s similar, but there fs nobody that corresponds exactly with Gov. Hughes. The Democratic dosses hate Hughes also and they have made the fact perfectly clear {n their platform. While Mr. Ohanler, the!r nominee for Governor, is per- gonally acceptable, he 4# not as yet !dentified with reform as Mr. Hughes 4s, and go there is one big Republican asset for which the Democrats cannot offer a counterpart. with the vigorous enforcement of law, with thorough tax reform under which real estate will be relieved of some of its burdens and the cost of Uving reduced, with the prosecution of notorious tax-dodgers, with the pro-| Motion of commerce at the port of New York, with the proper control of Wall street, with the punishment of the men known to be guilty of the insurance and Metropolitan corruption, all of whom are now at large, and with the proposition that rich thieves as well as poor thieves must be sent to prison, would be easy, would be highly creditable and would give him a etanding in a contest which he entered at a serious disadvantage.

AND MRS, FITZHERBERT. ‘ T the time when King George III. of England was losing his long{ A fight against the American Colonies, the eldest of his nine sons was beginning to cause the stubborn old ruler almost as much sorrow as was our Revolution. This son, George Augustus Frederick, Prince of Wales, was later to become George IV., and the great-uncle of England's present King. He was about the most worthless specimen of humanity that ever disgraced the British throne, Nevertheless, as # young man his good looks, magnetio personality and surpassing charm of manner won for him the ttle of “The Firs. Gentleman of Europe.” His intensely proper old father brought him up in rigid teachings of morality and propriety. But before be was twenty-one the Prince plunged into every known vice. Choosing for his friends the wildest youths of the day, George ran the gamut of low dissipation. His morals were the scandal of the court. His gambling was worse than reckless, He drank heavily, Worse tham al!, he had not an atom of honesty In his make-up. He cheated out- rageously, “welched” on his gambling debts, and employed such crooked methods {n games of chance that the Jockey Club {s said to have refused him the privileges of the betting ring.
