V.ver seventeen years ago in the Conti- Buuii Hotel, Philadelphia. BTiiose “two strange foreign ladies!” BWhere are they? HOW BERTHA ARRIVED IX TOWN. Btwo riehlv and fashionably attired 1 idies B-i-tered at the Continental Hotel, in this Bfi during March, 1870. They were as- Bni'd to a comfortable suite of rooms, and Be lintel clerk on duty noticed that one of Be ladies (she who appeared to be the elder Brl 'mo.'t wealthy and influential of the two) Bas quite an invalid and appeared to be in Beat suffering. H Consequently he was not astonished when Br younger lady of the two strangers hastily Kit for Dr. Charles P. Turner, of No. l.jOli B'almit street. Later it became known that Be elder of the two distinguished looking Bf’ifin ladies had giveil birth to a girl child. ■ The mysterious behavior of the two ladies Bdurallv attracted attention and comment, Bid consequently the faets in the case and ■ : ,p|*-araiiee of the strangermother were ■irtullv noted. ■ The latter was a woman about 3.5 years of L and slightly above the medium height, Bitli verv dark hair, coal black eyes, a clear ■uuplexion, of stately appearance, and in ■ whole demeanor, bearing and conversa ■„ii showed that she was a woman of high ■ir:li, education and refinement. The 5ec ■.,,,,1 the two strangers was classed as her ■maid," “sister” or “companion." Both ■dies spoke with a foreign accent, using the ■nglish French language with equal so i as impossible to determine to ■hat nati> iity they belonged. A HEARTLESS MONSTER. ■ Soon after the birth of the child the ■other asked Dr. Turner if she could not Bare the infant in one of the institutions of Kc city, and, upon being informed that she Kulil not, she asked if it were not possible ■ get some family to adopt the babe as their ■vn. ■ To this last question Dr. Turner replied Bat it was possible to do as the mother sug- Bsted, hut remonstrated with her for even ■inking of separating herself from her Hfspring and placing it in the hands of Brangers. B But the strange lady’s heart was not to be ■ftened, and in replying to the doctor’s re ■onstrances revealed her secret. B She claimed that she was the possessor of B very large fortune in Europe, and that Be could only hold it so long as she re- Bained single, but, the stranger added, she Bill niairied secretly, and in order “to ■void the jxissibility of the proof of her mar- Bage coming to light” had visited this eouu ■. pretending that she w r as traveling for B'alth. to give birth to the child. ■ Dr. Charles P. Turner, who ranks among Be most prominent physicians in this city, Bof the opinion that "so far as outward Bow would indicate the truth of an asser ■on," the strange lady's story was honestly Bid. ■ Finding that the unnatural mother was Btermined to get rid of her child, Dr. Tur ■r suggested that an advertisement should B inserted in the Ledger , offering SSOO to B proper person who would adopt anew B°ni female child, GIVEN AWAY. ■ Hundreds of answers were received in re ■h to the advertisement, from which the ■ames of David Watkinz and wife were se ■eted ami the couple asked to call at the B on tinental hotel. ■ Three or four days after the birth of the Banger’s child Mr. and Mrs. Watkinz met 8 10 mother at the Continental in the pres ■ice of Dr. Turner, the “sister” and a nurse, ■e latter carrying the babe. The follow ■g conversation, according to Dr. Tumor, ■len followed: ■ “Will you receive my child and take good ■are of it?” asked the aristocratic stranger. ■ “Yes,” replied Mrs. Watkinz. I "And will treat it as your own?” ■ “Yes.” 1 “Then you may take her,” were the ■range mother’s next words as she placed a ■elily jeweled hand in a small satchel, took ■ut a roll of bank notes, counted out five ■IOO bills, kissed the babe and gave the ■ouev and child to its purchased protector. I Before leaving this city the foreign lady ■sked Dr. Turner for his address, admitting, ■owever, that there was no probability of ■er wanting it, as she would never desire to ■> her child again. (The stranger also per sistently refused to give Dr. Turner her ■ame or address, and frankly admitted that ■he names entered upon the register of the ■oiitineiital Hotel were assumed for the oe ■asion only. When the physician’s bill was ■resented the stranger pronounced the total ■o be much too small, and insisted upon ■landing him an envelope containing more ■lran three times the amount of the bill ren ■“sj ' Home days later the two foreigners ■udiiealy and unexpectedly left the hotel, ■ayng they were going to Baltimore and ■vv a-snington, and from that day to this, over ■eventeen years ago, no trace has lien found ■of them. “AH!

T FROM THE RECORDS. 1 .'■'mtroversy in 1878 over the pos es- | n or the little waif found in tho records of I T.rV'vfy. thus: A *auv eutorod tho otllca uud asked to see I the girl. The lady was apparently about 4.5 years of ago, dressed well though not richly, and her genera! appearance and conversa tion betokened refinement. In her inquiries concerning Julia she revealed the deepest interest, and when the Secretary related to her the sad story of the child’s wrongs she gi*eat emotion and exclaimed: “1 had no idea the poor child had iieen so neglected.’ “‘May I ask your name?” inquired the secretary, as the possibility of tracing up Julia’s parentage now presented itself. “She replied: ‘I cannot tell vou who I am, hut I would like to see the child.’ “ ‘Of c iurse I cannot tell you where she is unless you inform me who it is that wants to see her,’ replied the Secretary. '■ 'You need not be afraid of me,’ answered the lady. ‘I don’t wish to take her away; I only want to see if she resembles her mother. “The Secretary then explained to tho visi tor that he could not be expected to confide m her if she refused to acquaint him with her name and who she was, and so she contented herself with inquiring more specifically as to the appearance of the mother. “ ‘Julia’s mother was about 35 years of age,” began the Secretary. “ ’Yes,” interposed the mysterious visitor. “ \\ ith dark nail 1 and eyes, and was evi dently a lady of wealth and refinement,’ continued the Secretary. ‘She was richly attired and displayed a profusion of dia monds and jewelry.’ “ Yes, yes.’ chimed the lady. “ ‘She spoke French, German and English fluently; appeared to have a thorough knowledge of music and was a fine per former on the piano.’ “‘Just so,’said the lady excitedly, as if the description given by the Secretary cor responded with her knowledge of the identity of the mother. ADVISED TO ADVERTISE. “‘She said she was from Europe, but gave no particular locality as her residence; that a large property had been left to her subject to the condition that she would never marry, and if she violated this provi sion she was to lose it. She said she had married privately, and had come to this country to give birth to her child so as to insure secrecy.’ “ ‘The description of the lady you have given,’ responded the visitor, ‘answers very accurately that of the ladv to whom I have reference; and although" I do not feel dis posed to furnish you any further informa tion, I will offer you a suggestion, if you are still anxious to-find out anything further about the history and parentage of the child, and that is, to send her photograph and a brief recital of the case to the London Times. lam sure, from what I know, you will have a response and a request for further particulars, the result of which wiil unravel the apparent mystery that now covers it. “After expressing her wishes that success might attend our efforts in the direction of her suggestion, she politely bid us adieu and left the office ” The suggestion to send her photograph and a- recital of Julia’s ease to the London Times was acted upon, but nothing came of it. On the other hand, letters from all parts of the country were received offering to adopt the stranger’s child, and as Sirs. Noilz was quite willing not to stand in the way of the little girl’s future if a wealthy couple desired to befriend her, the society investigated the best of the offers made and a selection was finally made, in which wealth, education, culture and refinement were promised, and little Julia finally took leave of Philadelphia, and in company with Dr. Turner started for her new home, the exact location of which is for obvious rea sons withheld from the public. There is little more too add. THE PRINCE IS FOUND. “Bertha Woodbury’s” adopted father was in this city a few months ago and called on Dr. Turner at his office, No. 15mi Walnut street. It was learned that the “stranger’s child” was then a most beautiful and accomplished young lady “of good manners” and pleasing address, that “her character was most esti mable and that all loved her for her good ness of heart.” Bertha’s engagement to a California mil lionaire enables the writer to record a most charming denouement to this romantic his tory, and many Philadelphians will wish “Bertha Woodbury” joy and ‘happiness as she enters upon this new chapter in her life’s histoi y. Stay! A few words more. Skeptics may doubt the authenticity of tjr, story. there be any such unbelieving your correspondent begs to refer them to Dr. Charles P. Turner, No. 150 G Walnut street, this city, or to auy of the officers of the Pennsylvania Society to Protect Children from Cruelty. And, by the by, if you call at the latter’s office on Chestnut street, at the corner of Broad street, glance over the archway in the visitor’s main room and you will see a life size portrait of a most beautiful young girl. It was from it that your correspondent gleaned the idea of inquiring about the his tory of the original. It is the picture of “Bertha Woodbury,” then Julia Watkinz, when she was 8 years old. % WHISPERING ACROSS THE SEA. Already One May Talk a Thousand Miles on a Telephone. From the New York Star. There seems to be no limit to the possibili-, ties of science and its application to the affairs of the commercial world. One of the great needs of the day is rapid, accurate and often secret communication between commercial centres Experiments iu long distance telephoning by the Bell Company over the exix'riinental line established in 1884 between New York and Boston, have demonstrated the great utility of that method. Investigations were made in many directions, and as a result of tho labor of Edison, Gilliland, Blake, Hughes, Hunuing and other eletricians, the long distance trans mitter was perfected. The old wires were found to be unequal to the requirements of long-distance work; and after repeated trials by leading manufactur ers a hard-drawn copper wire of great ten sile strength and conductivity was pro duced. This wire has proved to lx? tho best as yet manufactured for electrical purposes. Through the use of this wire and the im proved transmitter the possibility of a per fect. long-distance service was established. But the requirements are said to have been the most exacting. Cables of great size and high insulation were demanded, and the most careful attention required iuallthe de tails of construction. Besides the Bell line to Boston another system lias just been constructed between this city and Philadelphia. The last line is owned and operated by the American Tele phone and Telegraph Company. It is said to have cost $2. )0,000 to establish communi cation between New York and the Quaker City, and twenty-five wires are already in use. The wires are extra heavy, and forty live poles are used to the mile, being ole ven more than used over any other system. The | old style of grounded ivirre has lieen replaced | by the complete circuit. That is, instead of using one wire grounded at each end of tin- I line, two wires connected at each end form a complete circuit of the electric current be tween terminal points. By this method “cross talk,” the induction between adjacent, wires, and tho hissing sound peculiar to grounded wires are avoided. Communication s already possible be tween FhiladclplJ Boston, and every word in con versa!, the win* can be distinctly heard. .'••ricau Company l is now engaged in . ~ig its lines to New Haven, Boston, l’i . .vjueiioe and other East era cities. The in 4 xiinum cost of a mes sage between New York and Philadelphia is sl, and wires are rented of tbeeonipany by brokers at S3OO a month. A reporter called at the office of the American Com(siuy at No. 15 Cortlandt, ■treat recently. The officers kindly allowed him to experiment over the now line. Mi. | Hibbard, tho manager called up “Joe" at j Philadelphia and surrendered tho “phono” ] THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, MAY 5, 1887. to the reporter. By an ingenious contriv ance resembling the arm of a small suction pump attaelietl to the desks the officers of Hie company .uv enabled te talk over the wires without leaving their official stations. This contrivance is of nickel-plated metal, hollow, with the trumpet or mouthpiece re sembling that attached to ordinary speaking tubes, only laraer. “Joe” was asked the state of the weather in the Quaker town, and pronounced it fair. • “What company is playing at the Chest nut Street Theatre?" ‘“The Golden Giant’ combination,” was the response. The reporter was asked if he could accept a complimentary to that thea tre, but not feeling equal to the wear and tear likely to ensue from a trip by telephone lie was forced to decline. Mr. Hibbard informed the reporter that tho company expected to prove the possi bility of carrying on a conversation by tele phone over a distance of u thousand miles, and arrangements looking to that end are now iieing made. He did not believe it would lie impossible to talk across the Atlan tic ocean, but said tliat telephone communi cation might only be established between the two hemispheres at such a tremendous outlay as to render it impracticable by rea son of its cost. < A MONUMENT TO ST. PAUL. Secretary Bayard Favors the Novel Project. fVom the Washington Post. One of the latest projects proposed by a number of gentlemen in this country is to build a monument to St. Paul in his native city of Tarsus, Asia Minor. There are a great many churches in both this country and Europe which have been named after St. Paul, but none of these have been erected to his memory. The most fitting place for such a monument is the city of his birth, about which there is no uncertainty, for as Paul himself said: “I am a man, which am a Jew of Tarsus —a city in Cilicia; a citizen of no mean city.” The present population of Tarsus is about 20,000. It is situated on the Cydrine river, and stands within controlling distance of tho great pass of the Taurus mountains, now, as in ancient times, the sole easy land communication between Persia, Syria and the West. The city has increased 50 per cent, within fifteen years, and its streets are being improved and paved. There are now a number of churches and schools in Cilicia, in a district twice as large as the State of New York, but there are as yet no hospitals, no homes for the aged, no orphan asylums nor any other benevolent institutions. It. is now proposed to build u monument to St. Paul in the shape of a training school for orphans, of which there are a large number in that country, whose lot is a hard one. These orphans are left homeless. Rev. Cyrus Hamlin, of Lexington, Mass., the founder of Robert College, Constantinople, writes: “Epidemics sweep away the parents and leave the children. The Orientals are not socially hard-hearted or unfeeling, and yet, with no public institutions of relief, the con dition Of orphans among the poor is very sad, and the number very great.” The intention is to educate these orphans to become'preachers, that they may help to evangelize the country. They should also be taught some useful trade or industry which would render them self-supporting. Each child’s education will cost SSO a year until the student is fully prepared for work as minister or teacher. The original con ception of this school domes from a native of Cilicia, now a student in the New York Union Theological Seminary—Hamtuue >S. Jenanyan. Already a number of people in New York have become interested m the propon'd school, and have pledged $2,500 annually, a sum sufficient to support about fifty children. A board of managers has been selected and they Weld their first meeting at the resi dence of Col. Elliott F. Sheppard, on Fifth avenue, New York. The following are the officers and members as appointed ata meet ing held recently: President, Rev. Dr. How ard Crosby; Vice President, Col, Elliott F. Sheppard; Treasurer, Walter T. Hatch, of Brooklvn: Corresponding Secretary, Daniel W. McWilliams, of Brooklyn; Recording Secretary, Louis C. Whiten, of New York, while the following gentlemen constitute the Advisory Board: Clergymen, Rev. Drs. Charles F. Deems, John Hall, Cyrus Hamlin, Roswell D. Hitchcock, James M. King. William Ormiston, A. J. Rulitfson, R. S. Storrs, William M. Taylor, and the following laymen: Cornelius N. Bliss, William F. Lee, Frederic C. Monnel, Gus tave Schawb, Dr. William 11. Thomson, Ira C. Thurber and John H. Washbume. Elliott F. Sheppard, of New York, Vice President of the institute, accompanied by Algernon S. Suilivan, a distinguished law yer, called upon Mr. Bayard at the State Department offices to explain the character and purposes of tho institute, and also to introduced Mr. Jenanyan and A. MeLach lan. The Secretary was requested to in struct the United States Minister at Con stantinople to use his influnce with Turkey, to have governmental protection to the “St. Paul Institute” and orphanage school which Mr. Jenanyan and his associates are about to establish in Tarsus. He showed much interest in the applica tion, and said he would give instructions to our Miusiter to support it with the Sul tan. Mr. Jenanyan will bear letters to Minister Straus, who also hail explanations about tins school, given to him before he left, New York, and who expressed friendly in terest therein. A Mean Man. Fvom Ihs Bouton Courier. The champion mean man has 1 or. found again, this time in a dry goods store. A pe culiarly gross counterfeit half dollur having turned uppt the counting room, this clerk, P.

A few days after ward the young lady to whom he was en gaged came to the store and purchased some gw ids. being welted upon by P„ who took her money to the desk and returned with the change. The young lady departed, but half an hour after, while P. was at dinner, she re turned.
