MME. ems: Ann JENNY LlND.

A Short Sketch of Two Noted Singers AI-
ter ’l‘hey Had Left the Stage.

“Mme. Grist made sad mistakes in
her declining years,” says the Rev. Mr.
Hawcis. "Unlike Jenny Lind, she
nevcr knew when to leave off. She re-
tired but found life insupportable.
The fact is, unlike Marie, she was
quite .111 empty- headed person, with no
pursmts 01' inte1csts apart from the
stage, or any power of occupying her-
self. Grisi came back to the concert

"room when for too lame to attempt

the store. I heard her sing at the
Crystal Palace somewhere in the six-
ties. She was bow in 1812 and died
in 1869. She imprudently tried ‘Casta
Diva,’ her great song in ‘Norma,’ but
reached her high notes with a pain-
ful eff01t. The old men who flocked
to hem bet and 1emembered her tri-
umphs in the thirties and fo1ties sat
crying like children. They fancied
they still heard the goddess of the
stage when Rugini, Tagliafico, Mario
and Labache had lifted the Italian
school under Rossini, Bellini, Donizet-
ti and Verdi to the highest pitch of
intoxicating popularity; but to my
taste, poor Grisi’s ‘Casta Diva’ was a
piteous exhibition.

“How different this from Mme. Lind-
Goldschmidt, Who, although. she had
long retired from the public stage,
could still sing ballads like ‘The Three
Ravens’ and some of Mendelssohn’s
‘Leider,’ and even ‘Oh, for the Wingsof
a‘Dove,’ with incomparable effect. She
sang till quite late in life in the chorus
of the Bach choir, under the direction
of Otto Goldschmidt, her husband,
and one day a little choir boy of mine,
who also sang in the Bach choir, came
home breathless with“ excitement, re-
lating how at rehearsal the solo lady
had failed them, and how ,Mme. Lind
had volunteered to 'sing the part in
‘Hear My Prayer,’ and how nothing he
had heard was like it, and nothing
could ever be like it again.

“A few days before she died at Mal-
vern, she was driving in an open car-
riage, inhaling the sweet air ofthe
free Downs, and gazing on the mel-
lowing tints of the autumnal woods;
suddenly she lay back on her cushions,
and, with her eyes fixed on the dis-
tant sky, hummed to herself the sweet
melody of ‘Oh, for the Wings of a
Dove,’ which Mendelssohn had written
expressly for her many years before.
Little did he know that it was to be
her swan song.”

SOME BIG PENSIONS.

How Our Government Aids the Wives of
Dead Presidents and Soldiers.

The ' Presidents widows get, you
know, $5,000 a year by special act of
Congress. Mrs. General Grant and
Mrs. Garfield and Mrs. Tyler, I think,
are still drawing pensions. Mrs. Pres
idcnt Lincoln received $3,000 a year
from 1870 to 1882, when the amount
was increased to $5,000. Mrs. John
A. Logan gets $40 a week, and the
widow of Admiral Farragut received
$2,000 a year. A number of widows
of noted generals of the late war have
received or are receiving pensions.
Among these were the widows of E.
D. Baker, George H. Custer, the In-
dain fighter; of Robert Anderson, the
hero of. Fort Sumpter; of Daniel Mc-
Cook and Frank P. Blair.

Among the biggest single pension
amounts now granted are those given
to widows on account of a clause in
the pension act of 1896, which makes
the widow’s pension date back to the
death of her husband. The other day
a widow who had been married in
1858, and whose husband had died in
1867, applied for a pension. She claims

the right to be paid $8I'a month for

every month back to the death of her
husband, a period of thirty years. The
law, I am told, will give her the pen-
sion. Another widow from Ohio,
whose husband died in 1871, married
again fifteen years later. She now
claims a pension on account of the
death of her first husband for her fif‘
teen years of widowhood, and wants
it in a lump.——Frank G. Carpenter, in
Washington Star.

How the Japanese Sleep;

When night comes, beds are pre-
pared, says K. Mitsukari in the Atlan-
tic. Bedding is brought but from the
closets, where it has been put away
during the day. One or two large
thick futons, or cushions, are spread
directly on the mats of bedrooms, and
coverings which look like enormous ki-
mono or clothes are spread over them.
Every traveler has told of the pillow
made of a weeden box with a little cy1«
indrical cushion on the top, but this
kind of pillow is going out of fashion.
Softer Cylindrical pillows, made by
stuffing a cloth bag with husks of
buckwheat, are now more commonly
used. In the Summer it 'is necessary
to have mosquito nets, which generally
inclose the whole room.

As a rule, Japanese families retire
early. Ten o’clock is about the aver-
age time. Eleven is considered late. A
function that begins at. nine or ten and
lasts till the small hours of the morn-
ing fairly staggers the Japanese.
“Why,” they say, “even ghosts, who
are commc il taut, retire by that
hour.”

THE BAITQN'WILUAM ROTHSCHHILD.
ldheres St‘rictly‘éto Jebwish Customs—He
Hasn’t. MuchUsc for Christians.
Baron William Rothschild; the pres-
ent representative of the great family
)f bankersin Frankfort, is a very ec-
tentric man. He is a recluse. He lives
within himself/and does not seem to

enjoy the society of his fellow ‘meu-

His habits are those of an anchorite.
No monk of the middle ages was more
tcrupulous about his religious duties or
nore abstemious in his diet. Baron
William observes all the Mosaic in-
tunctions. He takes his own cook and
rocking utensils wherever he goes, and
ms his food prepared according to the
:trictest Jewish regimen. He will never
lit at the same table with a ChllStlall,
nor partake of food fiom w 11ch a
Christian has eaten. He is always
*ery courteous, and even deferential in
11s manners, but if he is in the same
'00111 with a Christian who is stand-
ing Baron Rothschild will :sit down.
if the Christian sits down he rises. In
the plain little oflice where he receives
those who have business with him
there is only one chair. The entire
'urnishings of the room would not
bring $5 at auction. He has the same
lesk and ‘other furniture that was used
by his father and grandfather.He has
worn the same hat for nearly a quar-
ter of a century, and it is said that he
ouys a new suit of clothes every Jth
roar.

This is not due to parsimony. be-
:uusa Baron Rothschild’s residences
are numerous and palatial, he has a
nost .of servants, fine horses and car-
riages, and his family fare sumptu-
lusly every day. He is very genetous,
1nd gives to several men of his 121cc
time money every year, as :1 ch. .1ty,
:han he spends for his own comfort.
{Iis wants are few. It is his pleasure
to live simply, and he enjoys his own
society more than that of other men.

Another of" Baron Rothschild‘s pe-
tuliaritics is to conceal his benevo-
-ence. He is said to give away a great
ileal of money, but if the man who
receives it ever mentions the fact so

THE BATHS lN PARIS.

llur American Conveniences Not: Appr'e-
ciuted by the French.

The bathing appliances of America

are something that the foreigner does

not. at all comprehend. When Mme.

Eames—Story built her house in Paris,

she bought her bath tups in Chicago,
and many Americans wondered why.
They would understand better if they
had ever seen a French bath.

Another American, who leased a
house in Paris for a term of years,
asked permission to put in bath tubs.
The privilege was allowed him on con-
dition that he put the walls in the con-
dition in which he found them, remov-
ing tubs and pipes before he gave up
the house.

When you wish to bathe in an ordi-
nary Paris house, you send word to an
establishment which is found in every
street. A tub, usually of copper, and-
hlghly polished, will be rolled in on
whéels twelve inches in diameter. It
will hold a hogshead of hot water, for
the Fiench do not understand cold
baths. By its side will appear a large
deuble copper bucket, with a. lining of
hotflwater.

HOW BIG GUNS ARE AIMED.

llallgr-Finder Used on Se. Icoust Dc-
l'cnces anti ls: lttll' ships.

The range-finder used on "our sens
coast defenses is not a Government se-
cret, but is a patentlcu appliance, an
improvement upon :1 system that has
been in use since ancient times. There
an: in use three sets of appmatus
somewhat different fiom each other
which we1e invented by Captain Wat-
kins, an English engineer; Lieutenant
Lewis, of our army, and Lieutenant
Fisk, of our navy. They were very
complicated, and it is difficult to ex-
plain-their operation so it can be un-
derstood by laymen. ’All such inven-
tions are an appliance of the mathe-
matical principle that, knowing the
base of a triangle and the two angles
at its extremities, one can calculate
the distance between them. On-coast
defenses the base of the triangle is per-
manent, with fixed objects to mark its
The angles are ascertained
by observations through instruments
made for that purpose, and when they
are known there is a series of printed
calculations covering all possible sit-
uations which enables the gunner to
catch the distance, of his target at 11
glance.

At sen, when a vessel is moving, the
base is fixed and measured upon the
deck. A telescope is placed at either
end of that line, and the lenses of both
are t'ocussed upon the object to be shot
at. An observation is then taken, a
rapid mathematical calculation is
made, the book of tables is referred to,
and in a moment the gunner may know
.whether the enemy’s cruiser is five and
one half or six and one-fourth miles
away. or any other given distance.
This, of course, requires a great deal
of technical skill and - mathematical
ability, but it is said to be absolutely
accurate, and the apparatus is so sen.
sitive and regulated to such a fine de-
gree that by turning a key a monster
gun weighing a hundred tons can be
instantly adjusted SO that with a given
quantity of powder it ,‘will carry a pro
jcctile of a given weight exactly the
distance which the range—finder has de-
termined. Of course, the gunner must
know the contents of his cartridge, be-
cause that is a material factor in his
problem. He must also make allow
ances for the wind, for the resistance
of the atmosphere, for'the curvature
of the earth and for the movement of
the enemy’s fleet if it is in motion.
The range-finder is, however, a great

Tin.-

, deal more accurate than the human

eye. and persons with defective vision
will often insist that a gim is badly
aimed and find out to the contrary
often; the shot is fired.

Although we have guns on our battle
ships and in the fortresses on the
coast that will carry a projectile thir-
teen miles it would be folly to attempt
to use them at that distance, because,
owing to the curvature of the earth,
it would be impossible to see the tar
get. A man in a small boat upon the
surface of the water cannot see more
than four miles. From the bridge 01
an ordinary man-of-war, which may be
thirty feet from the water, a man with
good eyesight or with a glass can see
eight or nine miles. A man at the
masthead can see ten or twelve miles,
but very indistinctly. and that is the
limit of human of human vision on :1
level surface—W. E. Curtis, in Chi-
cago Record.

 

True to His Colors.

A few years ago an Irishman, fresh
from the "cold sod,” secured a position
as porter. messenger and man~of-all~
work in a New York store. It hap-
pened to be the last day of the month
and the merchant was making out his
statements. .

"Here. Pat.” he said at noon, “gc
out and post these bills. Wherc‘.
Oh, yes; I forgot that you were still
a little green. There’s a mail box on
the telegraph pole at the corner. Post
the bills there."

Pat soon returned and laid the bills
on the merchant’s desk.

'01 may be a little glans yet sor,”
he said, with a cunning leer, "but, be

“Not posting them? Why

the’astonished merchant.

"Thot’s all right, but ycz’ll not be

plied, with the same cunning leer.

Hopes FOR PEACEFUL ISSUE. '

[let-clam] Refuses to Make Any Com...
3 1m no on the Cuban Clisis.

Priz: CL! 11, N. J., March 16. —A report—
er ca. t-d c. "it W'estland, the home of ex-
1’1es1 tut Grover Cleveland, yesterday,
for 11.1. purpose of obtaining an inter—
view with the former Chief Executive

of the t nited States upon the subject
of‘th'e Maine affair and the existing re-
lations between this country ,and
Spain. Mr. Cleveland at first declined

to express any opinion upon'the sub-
ject.

“I should only be misunderstood," he
said. “I have been testing hele quiet—
ly since leaving Washington, and I do
not wish to say or do anything which
may be construed in any way as a
comment upon public affairs.”

Finally, as the reporter turned to
leave him, Mr. Cleveland in firm and
emphatic fashion volunteered this
statement:

“Though I have no wish to be inter-
viewed, you may state for me that in
common with others, I think every pa-
triotic citizen ought to loyally support
the Government during a. period of
trial like the present, no matter what
exigencies may arise.

“I will also say that I hope that the
present difficulties will be settled with-
out bloodshed. It is possible that an

honorable way out will be found even- ,

tually and that there will be no war."

Mr. Cleveland said he preferred to re—
serve all comments upon the possible
and probable outcome of the Main af-
fair until the official publicatioii of the
report of the Court of Inquiry.

Court; of Inquiry Leaves Havana.

Havana, March 16.—The Mangrove,
with the Court of Inquiry on board,
sailed last evening for Key West. Cap-
tain Sampson, president of the Board,
assured the correspondent that the de-
cision to leans Havana was not; reached
until yesterday afternoon, after a. con-
sultation of the members. It was de-
cided that while further testimony
might be-obtained here, this was not
sufficiently likely to justify a longer
stay. The Court can return if the div-
ers or w reckers make discoveries that
add to the stock of knowledge now
gathered.

The plans of the submerged wreck, in
the preparation of which Ensign Pow-
elson has had a. large share, are elab-
orate, and Captain Sampson says the
testimony and records of the divers are
full. Captain Sampson hopes the court
will be allowed to resume its sittings
on the battleship Iowa. All the officers
of the court, except Judge Advocate
Marix, are stationed on the Iowa. or
on the New York and on the former
the court could be absolutely free from
interruption. The general part of the
investigation that remains will consist,
unless-the Court: returns here, of a
careful study of the plans.

Enthusiasm at the Military Carnival.

New York, -March 16.—Enthusiasm
reached its greatést height in Madison
Square Garden last night when the de—
tachment of the Fourth United States
Cavalry from West Point entered the
arena, the men sitting upright, with
sabres in the air, and horses prancing
as they svvung into the arena. Old
Glory waved, bugle notes echoed, and
cheer upon cheer rent the air. While

the men cheered, handkerchiefs flutter:

ed in the hands of the Women, and the
spectators never seemed-to tire of the
mimic war scenes. The regulars were
warmly received, but the reception of
the National Guardsmen was fully as
cordial and they showed their ability
to execute difficult manoeuvres as well
as the regulars.

To llI'uke Roonl for Fleet.

Washington, March 16.—The Govern-
ment will to-day open bids for the
dredging in the immediate vicinity of
the Dry Tortugas for fortifications. The
contract for the work will be for more
than $300,000, and its stipulations will,
it is understood, be rigid; that is, the
Government will demand that the work
be finished in a few weeks, and that

(for every day’s delay in the completion

of the work there will be imposed a
penalty of $1, 000 upon those accepting
the contract. The object of the pro-
posed dredging is to afford a place for
the anchorage of the American war
fleet, the channel at present not being
deep enough.

there will be no war.” Congressman
Grosvenor said: “There will bevno re—

Read What a citizen'says:

Ml. C. A. Owens, No.190 Main
st1 set, is .1. painter and a paper hangei
by trade. Like the maj01ity of men
who follow this occupation he was
troubled with disordered kidneys. The
requisites to his calling, benzine, tur:
pent-inc and other dryers excite and
inflame those organs, and late in the
fall of 1895, he found himself suffering
with a 1"etu1n of his old complaint.
Mrs. Owens, evet mindful of her hus-
band’s welfare, procured for him a box
of Doan’s, Kidney Pills at Hale’s drug
store (now Glendening & Co. '5) and
he used them. Mrs. Owens, says: “My
husband was greatly benefitted by the
use of Doan’s Kidney Pills. Constant
working in white lead and mixing
paint brought on kidney trouble and a.
severe headache. Relief in any form
is always welcome and we are pleased
to tecommend Doan’ s Kidney Pills for
what they did.”

Isn’t it strange what a big place the
city is when you are looking for some
one you really want to see, and how
small it is when you are endeavoring
to get away from some one you dislike.

“Landsmen” “’anted for Navy.

Philadelphia, March 15.——Yesterday
for the first time ”landsmen?’ were en-
listed for service in the United States
Navy by the enlisting officers on board
the receiving ship Richmond at the
League Island Navy Yard. The rea~
son for this action is that orders have
been received from Washington to re-

cruit as rapidly as possible 200 lands-

men to serve as seamen and coal pass—
ers. Seamen, and ordinary seamen are,
of course, still wanted, and the in-
st1uctions £10m the Navy Department
are that they shall be taken in unlim-
ited number. 3

Lord Salisbury Has a Relapse.

London, March 15.—Lord Salisbury,
Premier of England, has entirely brok-
en down. and was forced to give up
official duties yesterday. It is hardly
probable that he will return to office.
Arthur Balfour, First Lord of the
Treasury, has assumed the duties of
Foreign Minister ad interim. He will
probably inaugurate a more vigorous
foreign policy, and England will assert
her rights in the East against Russia.
It is impossible to say at present what
position Balfour will take as between
the ”Juited States/and Spain.
