Who went \\ iilt her mother to Russia. The manager of tho Grand opera of Puns was so pleased with her singing that he gave her an invitation to become the prime donna of the highest float of song, and by liberal pecuniary rewards sought to obtain her reloase from her St. Petersburg engagement, but tho Russians preferred her voice to the money offered. After tdio had completed ler engagement iu tho north, eho ac cepted the overtures mado her in Paris and nmde an engagement to fling in the Grand opera. THE MAKllIAOE. During her residence in Italy her name was changed to Lilia Nordica to unit tho Itulian style of pronounoiation. It was during hor appearance ae the groat American singer in tho Grand opera that she became acquainted with her second cousin, Frederick Allen Gower, grandnephew of Campmeeting John Allen. Ho said: “It was not a case of lovo at first sight, for it was full so von minutea before I became enchanted witli the lovely singer." Tho history of this young man is fully as romantic as is tho succors of Mine. Nordica. Ho was tho son of the Rov. 11. 15. Gower, a Baptist clergyman, who died in Farmington, Me., leaving n widow and three sons, tho oldest 10 and tho youngest 0 yeaj-s old. As tho fam ily were left in destitute circumstances, Frederick, Hie second son, wus kindly received and freely supported for a year at tho Abbott family school. Ho lgid given proof of his activity as nil infant by leaping from his nurse’s arms, beforo he was a month old, through an open window without breaking his neck. As a scholar lie was more uoted for vivacity than quiet study. After a year's sojourn at tho family school Frederick mul his brothers, by tho energy and ability of their mother, were gathered into n family homo in Providence, U. L Tho two older broth ers were fitted by their mother to enter Brown University, and were supported by her at collego till they graduated. George, tho eldest brother, became a lawyer, and has served by repeated elec tions as clerk of tho Rhode Island assem bly. Frederick entered upon the profession of journalism, and became city editor of Tlio Providence Journal. Ho wrote to Professor Bell, tho inventor »>f the tele phone, to deliver a lecture at Providence on tlio new invention. By invitation young Gower went to Boston to assist Bell in tho preparation of his lecture. Mlt. OOAVER’q SUCCESS AND END. His active anil ingenious intellect be came intensely interested in tho new in vention lie contrived to simplify tlio machinery mid to increase the intensity of tlio magnetic power, using one instead of two batteries, and introducing cir cular instead of horseshoe magnets, with other devices now used in tlio Goiver- Bell telephone. Having obtained patents and estab lished tlio Bell Telephone company, Gower went to France and formed a telephone company there, of ivliieh ho was president, with a salary of $25,000. Ho also obtained patents in Germany and England. In England a company wiis formed, hut tho English govern ment took the telephone, ns they had the telegraph, as a part of their postofiice ser vice, purchasing of the company a mill ion dollars’ worth of telephones for their use. After a brief acquaintance theso two American celebrities \i-ere united in marriage, and Mmo. Nordica was re leased from her engagement at the Grand opera. She came with her hus band to America. Their married life wus not a happy jre. For sufficient cause Mmo. Nordica sued for a separate maintenance, but never for a divorce. While the suit was in progress ho left suddenly for Paris, where lio had been deeply engaged study ing out an invention to employ magnet ism in tlie control of balloons. This lie considered tho greatest invention of tho age, hotli for military and commercial purposes. To test the efficiency of some of his How Col.

The closely buttoned frock coat shows the figure of a well kept man, careful and methodical in his habits. This man is Col. P.

He was picked tip and laid on mine coats spread on the platform, and a doctor was soon on hand. He must have suf fered intensely, but after the doctor bad examined him lie coolly asked: “Doctor, how bad is it?” "Very bad, indeed." “Will I live?’ "Not more tlmn ten minnt bleeding to death."

Each had bold of the handle of n basket con taining father’s dinner, and they wore smiling in anticipation of the greeting they would receive. Wo sent them away with a false story about bis having gone home, and tho eyes of both were filled with tears of disappointment.

Tlio treatment of boils should be, in the first place, constitutional, aiming to restore tlio vigor of the system. The diet should bo generous, without excess, and easily digestible. Tho patient, while avoiding exhaustion, should take a proper amount of exercise, have an abundance of pure air and wash his body daily with cool water and soup. Local treatment also is needed. To arrest the progress of a boil nt its early stage Sir Erasmus Wilson advises the application of a solution of sugar of load every six or twelve hours with a camel’s hair brush. If this fails ho would pro mote suppuration by spreading on it a wnsl; leather plaster of galbanum und opium, cut in tlio middle for tho oacai>o of the pus. If tlio pain continue^ to increase he would apply soothing applications. When tho boil begins to heal lie would keep the skin around it dry, clean it with tar soap and smear it with yellow rosin oint ment., dressing tlio broken surface with lint spread with the same ointment, keeping the dressing in position with strips of adhesive plaster or by a light bandage.—Youth's Companion. When Alphonse llnuUst Was Poor. Alphonse Baudot, considered by many the most popular living novelist, is one of the most remarkable looking men in Europe. He has an exquisitely shaped head, broad, white forehead, coal black eyes and hair and a full dark beard. Years ago, when he first came up to Paris from Lyons, unknown and friend less, lie was so poor that he was forced to make liia journey in a cold freight car, and bad nothing to eat for two days. A copy of ins poems fortunately met tlio eye of tlio Empress Eugenie, who directed t lie Due do Moray to send for him. Poor Daudet with difficulty procured suitable clothing for his ap pearance at tlio Tuiieries. but a lucra tive secretaryship was soon offered him by De Moray, and Ins pecuniary trials wore ended.—Now York Ledger.

This large amount 1ms boon deposited with tho treasurers from time to time by public administrators. Of this $>,000,000 the Now York state treas urer has about $880,000, Rnd although lie pays out now and then certified claims from tho administrative fund it keeps steadily increasing in a ratio with the population of the state. The public administrator of Brooklyn furnishes tho following cases from his record books: Thomas Wilson sold newspajicrs In Brooklyn’s Twentieth ward for a gener ation. His route was an aristocratic one, comprising such streets as Cliuton and Clermont avenues, in which are the homes of millionaire*. Ho peddled his wares in all sorts of weather, appeared on the streets in rain and shine ovory day and far into the night, and even made a feeblo attempt to brave tho fury of tho big blizzard of March 13, 1888. Ho had no friends, no confidants, no as sociations, and he lodged in tho attic of a miserable tenement house. Ono day in the spring of 1880 his legs refused to carry him along his route, and lw went for sticcdr and shelter to tho Brooklyn hospital. Hero he wits warned that ho had but a short time to livo and was told to com- muniente with his friends, if he had any. Old Tom shook his head negatively and'died that night without making a sign. Five bank books were found tinder his pillow, showing three or four thou sand dollars to his credit in different in stitutions. Tho administrator could loom nothing about him in the banks, where ho had told different stories about him self. It is thought he was of Swedish origin and that his real name was Nil- son, not Wilson. THK CAKE OF I-ANOIKK. Then there was Joseph Langicr, a name common enough in tho south of France, in Marseilles especially. Laugier was also a solitary man, living—or, rather, grabbing—in nn Atlantic avenue garret. He paid the janitor a dollar a month for his-miserable ic-om. Ho went out and ho came in, spoke to nobody nnd answered questions by slmliing or ’ nod ding his head. Ono day ho went forth for the last time—staggered and fell at tho next comer, was taken into a saloon, thence conveyed hi nn ambulance to Long Island Gollego hospital, where ho died after a few hours. Iu the pockcfA of his eout wore found bonds, mortgages and bank books worth $17,000 to tho owner, also a will drawn up in excellent legal pliraseology and written in n beautiful hand. His signa ture wus affixed to the will, but it lacked tho names of witnesses. So careful had ho been in preparing tho instrument that he affixed an explanatory para graph, underlined in red ink. In a codi cil he revokes the will, so that lio really died intestate. Humor says Langier’s heir is a nephew living in Marseilles, u sister's son, whom, if tho administrator could locate, would inherit $17,000. William Cato is another of tho great intestate for whoso heirs tho adminis trator is looking. Cato was no tramp or news vender. Ho was a marine in the service of Ihe United States, and had "been ono for such a length of timo that he had only a vague memory of what he had lieen before. His comrades had an idea that he was Scotch, uml that is all they could tell about liiin. He died sud denly wliilo still in tho servico, leaving $1,000 or so lio had savod out of his small pay. Patrick Cresham lived ou Third ave nue, near Forty-sixth street, South Brooklyn, and was in good circum stances. Hia wife died iu tho spring of 1889, und the loss drove him crazy. A week later ho committed snioido. Ho left a good deal of property to which his little 4-year-old daughter was heiress. His brother,^ well to do Now York car riage buildor, wns tho legul guardian of the little girl, but there happened just then to be in tlio house n sister of the child's mother. She was on a visit from Ireland, and had arrived just in timo to see her sister die. Tho night of the day Cresham committed suicide tho aunt took the little girl stealthily out of her bed and out of tho house, went over to New York, and on the morning fallow ing sailed for (Queenstown iu tho Um bria. Mr. Cresham, tlio uncle and legal guardian, reported tho theft to tiie po lice, and they cabled to (Queenstown to have tho aunt arrested on her arrival in that iKjrt. Now, it happened that owing to a great Btorm tho Umbria could not put in at Queenstown, nnd so went di rectly on to Liverpool, where no police werp waiting for a handsome lady of the name of Miss Crowe und her 4-year-old niece.

Tlio news wns received one day that tho editor of a groat morning daily had com mitted suicide. Tlio report came in such a manner that the city editor of nn after noon sheet felt it advisable to send a re porter and get nt the truth of tho mat ter. The reporter lonmod, of course, on his arrival nt tho morning paper ot- fico that he wits working on a falso rumor, but lie thought it would bo a good scheme to interview tlio editor and see what lio had to say regarding the re port. lie entered his room and saw the sup- posed suicide Routed at bis desk. Whon lie had explained bis mission tho editor snapped eat vehemently, "Well, do I look like a man who has committed sui cide?" Tho reporter was obligod to do- clave that lie looked very little liko a dead man, whereupon the editor roared out, “And if 1 hud committed suicide do you think I would l>o fool enough to do it in time for an evening miner?"—Chica go Herald.

How to Kill I.\*hj1IhIi nutlgcr*. Practically, it is said, tlio only way to kill t ho English badgers is to stop their “earths” iu tho covers along the hillside while they are out on their midnight foraging expeditions, nnd then hunt them away with tho hounds; for the badger is ono of tho craftiest of animals, and often outwits tlio dogs. He will not touch a poisoned bait, and an old badger, it is said, will “throw” u hundred traps with impunity. To dislodgo tho animals from their retreats, if they once gain the earth, is next to nn impossibility. They are most expert and rapid borrowers,— Youth's Companion. Her Howard.
