FROM CALGARY RANCH TO HAMPSHIRE CASTLE

First Taste of Luxury NEW EARL’S HOMECOMING United Press Association —By Electrit Telegraph—Copyright. Received Wednesday, 0.20 p.m. LONDON, ATarch 20. The Earl of Egmont to-day formally exchanged his Calgary ranch for his Hampshire castle. The Earl wore the same suit, overcoat and cloth cap in which he landed in England. He at first appeared doubtful concerning his reception at the castle because he had no personal acquaintance with the late earl who whs a distant cousin or the dowager countess who is still in residence at the castle. At ten o'clock in the morning a luxurious motor-car arrived at the small hotel where the earl stayed overnight and the agent for the estate introduced himself. A few minutes later the carl and his young son dressed in the same voluminous cloth cap drove to the castle. A butler received the party at the door and conducted them to the draw-ing-room where the dowager received them.
