AGNES FOLSOM'S CHOICE.
It Was One That Brought Griet
and Shame.
From the New York papers the follow
towing interesting story about a distant
cousin of Mrs. Cleveland is obtained:
Everybody who saw “Ermine” lust year
remembers Agues Folsom. Everybody
remembers when the ourtam rose on the
delicate, ethereal aud flittering beauty of
the pink ball-room, how “Javotte” came
forth in her snow-white wig, her pretty
dress of pale blue and cream
color, and sang her mezzo song
sf girlish coquetry to “Simon.”
Lfter style was very chis. Her manner
Kras prettily innocent. Her eyes danoed.
I %and her whole figure was the beautiful
■dding of youth and health and happi
ness. Pretty Javotte had everything
Htorth having before her. And Agnes
B Jplsom, now that everything worth hav-
Hpug is behind her, possibly remembers the
Htuiure, too, and sighs.
was very pretty, but did not seem
Ko feel it. She was a detni-blonde, a little
FSver the medium height, plump and
Symmetrical in figure. She could have
bad numberless admirers, but cared for
pone, and every night went straight
home from the Casino to her mother,
Who never lived more than two blocks
away. It was all a gay and joyous pre
lude, the career at the Casino, but it was
only a prelude. And the und is as sad
£nd dismal as it could well be.
i Agnes’ mother thus tells the protty
girl’s story:
“When Agnes came on trom Boston.”
she said, “1 accompanied her. Bhewas
very ambitious, and I wished her to have
a home and to guard her as a mother
should. She began at the Casino and was
steadily successful. She bad been taught
lo slug, aud sue quickly learned to act,
and went rapidly ahead. Everybody
liked her, and she. was perfectly
happy and always busy. She
paid no attention to the men, und
allowed no one to pay attention to her.
William Baldwin, a vouug man living in
Brooklyn, was very much in Aovo with
her, and hoped to marry her, and fora
time, il she bad a preference (or any
body. It was for him. She always ciuiie
directly home after the performance, and
had no thought ot frivolity, und, up to a
year ago. was as good a child us any
mother could wish.
r*. “Both Agnes and myself formed a
k_/arm Iriendsblp lor Mrs. Sohilliug, Vic
toria Moroslni-Schilling, whom you know
of. She was in the company and she and
Agnes were much together, and so It
luppened that when she fell sick at her
rooms on Thirty-eighth street both Agnes
and myself nursed her. In attending her
I became ill myself of typhoid malaria. 1
was then living on Broudway, opposite
the Barrett house, 1,495, 1 think. I asked
Dr. Huhlou, of the drug store at the cor
kier, to recommend a physician, and bo
Recommended aud called in Dr. William
M. Cate.
“Dr. Cate attended me during my sick
ness, and when 1 was convalescent found
Inore work to do In taking care of Agnes.
She fell sick with pneumonia. He seemed
an excellent doctor in every way, und
under bis treatment she recovered. This
was tbe beginning ol their acquaintance.
1 never bad seen him before nor bad she.
lie was tall and fine looking, and very
gentlemanly. He seemed t 0 take a great
Interest in Agnes and, after she recovered.
Desired to tauc berout driving. He said
that sbe absolutely needed it to fully re-
More berWalUi, und 1 had no objection.
* tbe doctor was a single
man. He led me to infer it, and it was a
long lime before I learned to the contra
irary.
“1 he driving took place two or three
tiroes awek. He had a handsome span
at uorses and a buggy. J suspected noth
ing wi ong, as they always returned in
i iuie, it not for her dinner, tor her ap
pearance at the Casino. I had every
confidence in the doctor. One night
wnen they did not return 1 was greatly
worried. They were away all night
long, and Agnes did notoome home until
7in the morning. The doctor said, how
ever, that they had driven a long wars
tip the road and one of the horses had
fallen in a fit. They had to cross
the river and came home by
way of Jersey City and had to
spend tho night there. " This was hut the
beginning, however, of a closer and closer
acquaintanceship with the doctor, and a
gradual sundering of the ties that bound
her home. In August she went away to
live elsewhere, the doctor saying to a
gentleman whom 1 sent to him that it
was on account of some property which
her grandfather wished to leave hor, and
which, In some way, necessitated her
leaving us. She came to see me every
week for a while, and the rest of the
story you already Know.”
The rest of the story is a most remarka
ble one. When Miss Folsom left her
mother to live elsewhere Dr. Cate left the
Barrett house, where he had been living,
and went to live elsewhere, too. He had
been three years in New York, had estab
lished a fine practice, had an excellent
reputation as a gentleman and a physician
of the homeopathio-eclecttc school, and
also had a wife and child at Cape Cod,
Mass. Concerning his wife and child he
told Mrs. Folsom when she finally taxed
him with it that he had separated from
his wife, that they had no love for each
other, and he had ceased to support her.
The only obstacle to the smoothness
with which the relations between the
doctor and the daughter advanced was
her suitor, William J. Baldwin, who is a
coal dealer in Brooklyn. Baldwin was
passionately attached to Miss Folsom,
and was so blind as to go to the wily doc
tor tor advice. The doctor gave it to
fiim, told him girls bad freaks and he
needn’t worry, and even went so far as to
talk learnedly as to the best means for
him to pursue to arouse or retain her
affection. Little by little, however,
Baldwin learned that he was a
filth wheel on a cupid’s coach that
was beginning todrive fast and furiously.
Then he began to tell what the doctor
had told him, tho physician having said,
among other things, that he had uo feel
ing whatever for Miss Aggie. This
aroused Bliss Aggie’s ire and she de
nounced it as untrue, demanding that
Baldwin should repeat it in the doctor’s
presence. The result was that Mrs. Fol
som, Aggie uud Buldwin called on the
doctor at bis office, 87 West Forty-second
street. Miss Aggie demanded:
“Did you say to Mr. Baldwin that you
had no love for me?”
The cornered doctor said he had said so
to Baldwin for reasons, but it was not
true. He did love her.
“Did you say,” continued she, “that
mamma had been talking about me?”
“I did not,”said Cate.
“You did,” said Baldwin.
“I did not.”
“You lie.”
The dootor. who is six feet high and an
athlete, struck Baldwin, and then, accord
ing to the mother’s account, choked him
till be was black in the face.
After this Baldwin gave up hope and
disappeared. When “Erminie” gave
jilace to the Violet Cameron Company
Miss Folsom retused to goon the road with
the company and threw up her engage
ment. She said she was tired and wanted
a rest. At her mother’s solicitation sne
agreed to accompany her to Boston on a
visit to hor lather, Henry M. Folsom,who
is a ship broker there. They reached Bos
ton on a Thursday in the latter part of
September. The next morning Agnes re
ceived ihe following telegram:
It is important that I see you at once. Can
you come on? Joun A.' McCalill.
In response to this Agnes started that
afternoon for New York. Her father
thought nothing wrong ot it until the fol
lowing Tuesday, when Mrs. Folsom came
to the office in a cab. greatly excited, to
tell him that they must go atonce toNew
York. Bhe had a letter from Agnes, stat
ing that they need not expect to see her
for a time, as she wanted to be alone.
Upon arriving here they went at once to
Wallack’s Theatre, ami there found Me-
Caull. His greeting was: “How is Ag
nes? 1 haven’t seen her for six months,”
and be instantly denounced the telegram
as a forgery.
The lather and mother then went
straight after Cate, but did not find him
until the next morning at his office. The
doctor and Agnes came in together and
were greatly surprised to see their visit
ors. The father went outside with his
daughter while the mother talked with
Cate. Agnes said there was nothing
wrong. She simply wanted to ho alone
and wanted the doctor’s advice. The doc
tor was always the smoothest of talkers,
and quieted to some extent Blrs. Folsom’s
fears. They failed to get her address,
however, and the next day, when thp
lather called on the doctor to get it the
latter begged his pardon, but Bliss Fol
som had requested him to give it to no
one.
Mrs. Folsom wont to Boston broken
down and lay In bed for twenty-two
weeks When everybody, doctors in
cluded. had given ber up she rallied and
recovered. When scarcely able to go out
she came to New York with a friend,Mrs.
Howard. She discovered where her
daughter was living, at .'l3B West Fifty
eighth street, but was refused admit! unee
there. She then took a room in tbe Hotel
Gladstone, whose windows commanded
ber daughter’s residence, and watched.
8(;e saw, the following Sunday, the
doctor leave the house in company with
Arnes. Then, with her lawyer. William
11. Mundy, she made a second call at the
nouse. Mrs. Masterson, the landlady,
was out. Th< bull was answered by a
girl and the mother walked by her and
went up the stairs, in spite of the girl’s
protestations. As she opened the Iront
bedroom door on the first floor her daugh
ter, who had heard the talk and recog
nized her, ran into the bedroom in tbe
rear, which is Cate’s. Tbe mother fol
lowed, and when Mundy reached the top
of the stairs, the daughter was endeavor
ing to push her mother ouf ot the rear
bidroom door into the hall, crying:
“Mamma, 1 can’t see you; 1 can’t
see you.” A scene lollowtd, Miss Folsom
angrily venting her rage on Mundy. The
poor mother, weeping and broken down,
threw her arms about ber daughter’s
neck, crying’ “Aggie! Don't you love
me any more?” Miss Folsom thereupon
burst lntotears, and mother and daughter
Cried In each other’s arms. Tnen they
were left to tbemsolvee for half an hour.
The next day Mrs. Folsom called on I)r.
Cate to plead with him. He declined to
listen, put her out ot his office and shut
the door upon her. Her dress caught In
the door, aud lie had to reopen it to set
her free.
Agnes promised her mother to come
and see her, but did not come. There
was no means of getting ber out of the
doctor’s clutches. Everybody who visit
ed the house, 338 West Fifty-eighth
street, was informed that neither she nor
Cate lived there. The conduct of the
girl, to those who knew ber, wusiuexplio
able. She had been so thoroughly good
up to bar meeting withCate that she was a
svuonym for rectitude at tbe Casino. Cer
tain persons who kuew Cate well de
clared that his control over her was mes
meric in its absoluteness. Certain others
ventured that not only her head but her
bruins us well was turned.
Asa reaul*, ber lather obtained from
Judge Fath-rson a writ of habeas corpus,
directing William M. Cate to produouber
in the bupretne Court, Chumbers, Mr.
Folsom stating In his petition that she
SAVANNAH MOUSING NEWS: SUNDAY, MARCH 27, 1887 —TWELVE PAGES.
whs unlawfully restrained of her liberty
at 388 West Fifty-eighih street.
The Su ireni"’ Court, Chambers, was
packed when the hour tor tho return of
the writ drew near. Great was the in
terest to see the whilom Javottc, who had
so suddenly shaken the dnstof the Casino
from her feet, and who was looked upon
as a half-demented prisoner of tbs
diabolical physician. But she came not.
Tho dootor came, and brushed his fierce
moustachios. He looked full of mental dis
turbance, as if either a guilty conscience
or a very serious bit of wrath over the
stories of the day was troubling him.
Charley Reed, the lawyer, of Guiteau
fame, came with him and sat beside him,
while William Allan represented him as
counsel. Lawyor Mundy ami Henry M.
Folsom, the father of the missiiig girl, ap
peared on time, and cast perturbed
glauoes about the room tor the wisbed-for
daughter.
Mr. Allan said that his client bad re
ceived tlie writ and a petition purporting
to be signed by the father of Miss Folsom.
Judge Patterson interrupted him sharply
by asking
“ Have you her body here?”
“No,” returned the lawyer. “We have
not got her in our possession. 1 don’t
know whether the petition says she is in
sane or not.”
“There is an allegation that she Is un
lawfully deprived of her libertv,” said
the Judge, who appeared to be very con
versant with tho ease. “She is detained
by a person claiming to be a physician,
who has control over her, has her in his
custody, and says that she is of unsound
mind.”
Mr. Allan then made an affidavit by
Dr. William M. Cate, denying that he had
or ever had had Agnes Fo’lsom iu his cus
tody or possession or power, or that, she
was ever restrained by him. Mr. Allan
went on to say that when the writ was
served he had an interview with Bliss
Folsom for the first time. He examined
her thoroughly, and was convinced that
she was perfectly sound in mind.
An affidavit, signed by Agnes, was
submitted, denying alt the allegations of
her father and mother. Mr. Mundy asaod
for time to reply to the affidavit, which
was granted. Afterward the case was
placed in the hands of a referee to take
testimony as to Agnes’ lunacy.
Of all crimes, sins, failings or weak
nesses the crime, sin, failing or weakness
of insanity was the last to be looked lor
in the arch and unembarrassed young
lady who met half a score of reporters
in the afternoon and denied the allega
tions which had been made about her in
her lather’s name. She was as pretty as
three or four pictures. Her face,rounded
in healthful lines, looked much better
than when she left the stage suffering
from pneumonia.
“I cannot understand my father drag
ging me luto publicity like this,” she
said. “The statements which have been
published about me are false from be
ginning to end. Dr. Cate has no authori
ty or influence over me whatever. He
had nothing to do with my leaving the
theatre, or with my coming to New York.”
Miss Folsom looked dreamily out of the
window when asked about her relations
with Mr. William J. Baldwin. “Ha was
a friend of the family, nothing more,”
she said. She denied that he had been as
saultedjiy Dr. Cate
Bliss rolsom went on to say that there
was a quarrel between her and her
parents, but declined to go into its merits.
It was not much of a quarrel, she inti
mated, but about its nature she could not
tel).

OIL STOVES!
Are They a Success for Cooking ?
We answer yes; but there are Oil Stoves and
Oil Stoves, and you MUST GET A GOOD
ONE. A poor one is worse than none.
We recommend the ADAMS & WEST
LAKE Wire Gauze, Non-Explesive Oil Stove
as the most satisfactory yet brought out, and
we will show its merits by good words from
the best judges, i. e., those who use them:
J U‘nr. Jon. S. Silva <& Sun:
Dear Sirs—The A. and W. OIL STOVE
bought of you gives perteot satisfaction, and
f most heartily recommend it as the best J
have seen. All the cooking 1-irmv family is
done on it quicker, better and cheaper than
it could be done on a wood or coal stove.
Respectfully, E. K. McKOY.
