Hattie‘Gilbert of Stamford was ar-
cane, an aged man made his way down
.the gang plank of a French liner, from
Havre the other day. He was Dr.
Thomas W. Evans, the most celebrated
dentist in Europe, a friend of Na:
poison 111., and of Empress Eugenie.
American by birth, Dr. Evans re-
turned here for the first time in
twenty-one years.-
Dr. Evans has done what no Ameri-
can‘can boast;- he has treated and
filled the teeth of every ruler in
Europe, save only Queen Vivtoria. He
went to Paris in 1846, and has resided
there ever since.
His wealth is estimated at $35,000,-a
000, besides a. matter of $5,000,000 or
so which is invested in real estate 011
Riverside drive in this city. He pur-
chased this property in 1876, when he
last visited this country.
It was during the reign of Napoleon
III. that Dr. Evans came into promi-
nence. He had succeeded in elevating
dentistry and in perfecting methods
far in advance of that time. The
Emperor practically insured the doc-
tor’s future, for, hearing of his fame,
he sought his skill.
A warm friendship sprang up be;
tween the Emperor and Dr. Evans. It
was through this that Dr. Evans was
enabled to accumulate wealth rapidly,
for to be the Emperor’s dentist meant
to be that of every member of the
court.
Kaiser Wilhelm I. of Germany,
sought his aid. The present Czar of
Russia, when a boy, also sat in the
doctor's chair and hlad‘his teeth filled.
Napoleon’s friendship enabled the
shrewd American to make real estate
investments in Paris that rapidly
swelled his wealth. He now owns an
elaborate office building and a. magnifi-
cent residence on the Bois de Bou-
logne, besides many other valuable
properties in the French capital.
patron,‘ and when the French empire
tottered to its fall and she feared for
her life, Dr. Evans assisted her to es-
cape at night from the Chateau de
Pierrefonds. In his own carriage Dr.
Evans took the Emprelss to Calais,
and from there on board his yacht,
where she remained during the hor-
rors that followed in France—New
York Journal.
THE GATE WAS TAKEN OFF.
What Lady Burton Couldn‘t Get by Ask-
ing She Obtained by Force.
Summary measures may often be
taken when human motives conflict, if
only, at the same time, “mercy seasons
justice."
.When Sir Rlchard Burton was Brit-
ish Consul at Damascus, his wife, Lady
Isabel, found that a large Wooden gate,
in the garden next hers, swung con-
tinuously on its hinges, and that it
was keeping one of her guests, an Eng-
lish official, awake at night.
The garden belonged to an old wo-
man, and Lady Burton, asked her to
have the gate fastened; but she sent
back word that it was impossible. It
had been broken for years, and she
had no money to repair it.
English lady took‘the law into her
own hands. That night her guest
slept well, and at breakfast he asked
gratefully how she had managed about
the gate.
“If you look out of the window,”
said she, “you will see it in the court-
yard. I had it pulled down at sunset.”
He drew the long face of oflicial re-
buke.
“Oh!” said he, “but you really must
not treat people like that! Suppose
they knew of these things at home?”
“Suppose they did,” echoed she,

Youngsters celebrated Hallowe’en
in the usual manner Saturday night
much to the discomfiture of several
nervous people, b1°1t it is not learned
that, they did any serious damage to
property or person.
The Methodist Sunday-echo 01 held a
harvest concert in Hoyt’ s Theatie last
night. The hall was tastefully decora-
ted with finite of the farm and pie-1
sented a very pretty appearance. A
.plendid programme of exeicises was
given the audience.
After her guest’s departure, she
ordered the gate to be mended and re-
placed at her own expense; and the
next time s‘he‘went out, the little old
' woman-1 next door ran after her, cry-
ing:
“0 thou light of my eyes, thou sun- "
beam! Come, and sit by the brook in
my garden, and honor me by drinking
" coffee, and Allah grant that thou may-
est break something else or mine, and
