MARCHIONESS OF DONEG-tLL.
The Marchioness of Donegal!,
who was the daughter of the late
Mr, Henry St, George Twining, of

Imperial Colonial Club, which was
designed to promote goodfellowahip
between Great Britain and the col-
onies, and her tact and skill and
zeal have, during her holiday sea-
son, been greatly missed in that
centre of patriotic usefulness.
Her son, the marquis, is still only
a boy, but he has the good looks
of his family, including those of his
father, who was reputed to be the
handsomest man in the British
army, but who died in 1904. The
marquis is now nearly ten years of
age, and amongst other honors,
possesses the curious distinction of
being Hereditary High Admiral of
Lough Neah--an Irish naval com-
mand that goes back for its origin
to the time of Queen Elizabeth. He
derives no pay or emoluments from
his office, but he has several not-
able perquisites, amongst others
the right to wear the uniform of
an admiral of the fleet and to receive
an admiral's salute. Up -to -elate he
has not exercised either of these
perogativea.
