SCALDED TO DEATH.
Child Fell into a Tub of Scalding Water and
Died From Her Injuries.
Our Wilton correspondent writes as
follows of a fatal scalding accident
which occurred in that town: .
“The death of J arda Matilda, the lit-
tle daughter of C. I. Eckland has shock-
ed the community. The little one was
playing about the kitchen ather home,
on Friday morning and fell backward
into a small tub of scalding water which
had just been placed on the floor pre-
paratory to being used for scrubbing.
Dr. Gorham was summoned at once,
and at first thought“ the child would
recover from her injuries, if able to
survive the shock. This seemed to be
possible untll early Saturday morning,
when a change for the worse set in, and
she died about ten o’clock. The par-
ents are heart-broken over the accident
and have the sympathy of their many
friends in their time of great trouble.
BED st ON FIRE.
Narrow Escape of Aged Captain Cheney of
New London.
Captain Erastus H. Cheney, aged 75,
a well-known New London fisherman,
had a narrow escape from being fatally
burned last night, as it was he was
severely burned about the feet and
hands and had his face badly scorched.
He had gone to bed and left a lamp
lighted in his room. Some time after-
wards the occupant of an adjoining
apartment was attracted to the room
that the lamp had exploded and the
bed on fire. Captain Cheney was aslee p
and undoubtedly would have been
burned to death only for the timely
discovery. He was taken to the hospital.

Though there is not much to be sag
for "One Summer” beyond the fa“
that fifty-four thousand volumes of the
book were sold, the personality of its
author does not, happily, depend upon
her literary work. Blanche Willis
HOWard, or—to call her by the title
which she bore at the time of her
death—the Baroness von Teuffel, was
one of the most charming women who
have ever attempted to write, and.
unlike many others, she was prone t6
take her books at very nearly theil I
proper valuation.
Beside her novels and her work as
a magazine editor, she was a musician '
of real ability. It was her remarkable '
talent in this direction—aided, as al-
ways, by her taking manner—that won
her the friendship of Wagner, with
whom and with: whose niece—as she
used often to tell-she sat in a private
box at the first public production of
“Lohengrin.” Another of her friends
was Lizst, whose guest she was in

How the Prince of “’ales Escaped.
The Prince of Wales was once tak-
ing a walk in St. James’s Park before
breakfast, when he found himself fol-
lowed by a well dress-ed but crazy
looking old woman. Having'seen this
woman before, and probably guessing
what her object was, the-prince re-
solved to take no notice of her, but
continued his walk until obliged to
turn homeward. The woman then
stood before him and courtesied. The
prince raised his hat and tried to pass :
on. “I have a grievance, your royal
highness,” began the stranger, pro-
ducing from ‘her hand bag a roll of
close written parchment. “Ach, mad-
am, these is not me first time I have
been taken for the Prince of Wales!”
was the reply in a grufl voice, with a
strong German accent. After flashing -
a glance of deepest scorn upon him,
the old lady put away her precious .
