Strangest of gl), Mrs. Aetor Nd. 1
became once more through death the
mother of her own son. While hla
father lived he waa mostly In his
society, and to' that extent separated
from his mother. Now he lives with
his mother entirely, to whom he Is
naturally devoted.
. Mrs. Aetor No. 2 Is leading her re
tired life In her lonely Fifth avenue
palace. _ It Is the one conspicuous As
tor possession she retains, but the se
verely restricted income she enjoys
is scarcely proportioned to It. She
has a son named John Jacob Astor,
born after the --Titanic disaster. He
was a child of tragedy In many senses.
Obviously he will miss the many bene
fits that would have come to him as
the dear little Benjamin of the ffcmlly
had his father lived. Gossips even
profess to see an ill omen In the fact
that an automobile ran wild and
leaped on the sidewalk of his moth
er's house on the day of hltf birth.
Fear Society's Animosity.
They predict that he will suffer
from the attitude of the very powerful
families such as the Vanderbllts, who
have always championed Mrs. Astor
No. 1, but that Is probably attributing
too much malevolence to social lead
ers. Then, too, the brave young moth
er, Mrs. Astor No. 2', has been greatly
troubled by the fear that an attempt
might be made to kidnap her jouue
son. ? t;
Death gave back to Mrs. Astor No.
1. the virtual control of one of the
greatest fortunes In the world. It
took that control from Mrs. Astor
No. 2.
As the beloved mother of Vincent
Astor, tbe richest unmarried young
man in America. Mrs. Astor No. 1
became the dlreotor of his palaoee,
his possessions, apd hlB expenditures.
She regained possession of the great
Astor yacht, the Noma; of t ho b pi en

Beechwood;. of the motor cars, horses,
oarriages, plate, and Qth0r treasures
of the family.

Becomes Head of Family.
Most strangely, too, Mrs. Astor "No.
1 regained by death her title a% the
woman head of the family. After the
Titanic tragedy It was announced that
she would be called "Mrs. John Astor" i
?nd not "Mrs. Ava Willing Astor."!
Op tbe other hand, M*?. Aator No. t
Is always spoken of ae "Mm. Madeline
TV>rce Astor" and not as "Mrs. John
Jacob Astor."
"Mrs. Aster No. 1 became by death
most decorously a widow, whereas be
fore that she had only been a divorced
womaty. P radically everybody in ?o
clety now refers to her as the widow
of Colonel Astor, and avoids giving
that title to Mrs. Astor No. 3.
In London, wherei Mrs. Astor No. 1
haa kept a fine house, she enjoys the
friendship of the king and queen, the
duchess jof Marlborough, and all the
greatest soclgl magnate* of the United
Kingdom. The* always speak of her
?s ? Colonel Astor's. widow, . and over
look the second widow. The British
are very expert at overlooking little
things like that.
? short, Mrs. Astor No. 1, the beau
tiful, stately, high-bred matron, has
triumphed beyond the dreams of ro
mance.

Tbe next scene of her life will be
laid In Newport, Where for the first
time In her life she will rule at
Beechwood as mlstrees. In the early
years of her marriage she spent every
summer th6re, but always a# a daugh

After the death of Mrs. Astor. senior,
when she might have retghed there,
she refused, and shortly Afterward she
began suit for divorce. Therefore

belli were *iven year after year, will
be the pivot around which Mrs. As
tor'? future career will revolve. Could
woman ask moire o t fortune?
Last winter Mrs. Astor returned to
New York and occupied the Fifth ave
nue house, leased for her by. her son^
She also went to Ferncllffe, where
numerous house parties were enter
tained. She occupied the Astor box
at the opera, the Astor tiara shone on
_er b?ad. and the Astor pearls encir
cled her shapely neck. None of these
things would she hare had had the
colonel lived. The second Mrs. Astor
would have sat In that box woaring,
those pearls and that tiara. . The sec
ond bride would have been hostess at
Ferncilffe; would have dispensed ho*
pitallty in the famous town house.
But the Titanic and Dame Fortune
gavo all these things back to the
woman who had thrown them Into the
discard, to the woman who never ex
pected to have them again. Mfsr As
tor was content In her life In England.
She lived more simply than she had
ever lived In this country, but she
claimed that she did not regret having
given th'ese things up; that she would
ever again sit In her old opera box
never entered her head.
But the greatest of all theee changes
Is the one that brings her to Newport

Took Secret to Qrave.
Rather more than 100 years ago
there lived in a quaint, old world? vil
lage in Wales a working blacksmith,
who bad managed by some means or
other, to bring the welding of steel to
such a pitch of perfection that the
joint waa absolutely lnvltlble, and the
temper of the ateel aa fine aa on the
day it left the teeter's hand. By his
process he was able to Join the very
finest of sword blades, and after he
had finished with them they were ab
solutely as good and as sound as
when they had left the factory.
The blacksmith's fame Bpread far
and wide, and, naturally enough, he
attained a great reputation, but he
made a point of Invariably working In
solitude. He was offered large and
tempting sums to divulge his secret,
but kept it obstinately to himself, and
when hts span of life had run Its
course he took it with him to another
world.

Explaining the 8ltuatlon.
Down In the Red river valley sec
tlon of Louisiana there la a planter,
a veteran of the Civil war, who is
noted for hla profane vocabulary.
Not long since he married, and
everything sailed along nicely* for a
few days. But the captain was called
out early one morning by a negro
tenant, who wanted to see him on
business. As soon aB the captain saw
the negro, he b'egan to curse him.
His young wife, hearing the vio
lent language, stuck her head out of
the window and asked: "Is that you,
dear?"
Before the captain cduld answer
the negro said apologetically, "No,
ma'am; dat's Cap'n Johnson." ?
