A BIT OP SOUTHERN ROMANCE. Why the Negro Who Whistled to the Passengers and the Tall Gentleman Embraced. From the New York Tribune. A midsummer stroll about New York tnay lead one into strange places. Thus it may take one across one of the numerous ferries that carry the weary New Yorkors to the hills of New Jersey and to tho beer gardens and big breweries where the Ger mans are numerous. It may send one down the Bay on one of the hundred excursions out to sea or up the Sound, to Long Branch, to Coney Island or up along tho Hudson. Alladin with his wonderful lamp could not conjure up more places of recreation or more variety of amusements than are spread before New Yorkers at this season of the year. Wherever one strolls there is novelty, and open ears and a retentive memory will catch up floating bits of gossip and news any where and everywhere. It was this fact that impressed the stroller as he sat on the dock of n Long Branch boat on Saturday. The lonesome-looking and lugubrious Italian musicians had just com pleted their finest symphony, collected tho nickels and dimes of admiring listeners or of persons glad to be rid of their dolefully manipulated violins, and had gone down stairs to drink 1 shore opening anew musical programme in another part of the boat. A fat and greasy, smiling-faced black man was puckering his lips for a mockingbird whistle, with a view of capturing what few pennies the Italians had failed to charm out of the pockets of the passengers, when he was touched on tho arm by a tall and hand some athletic man of perhaps 40, a typical Southern gentleman. In an instant they had embraced—this greasy black man and this elegant gentleman. We all guessed it at once—that is. we thought we did. It must be, it could be nothing else than an old master and an old slave episode. Well, it wasn’t. Out of that meeting the Stroller heard tho queerest bit of Southern romance. “Where is your mistress?” was the first question the negro was asked by tho gentle man, when they had come away from the crowded deck and had got into a corner near the Stroller. “Foah de Lawd, Mas’r George, I doan no,” was the colored man’s reply. “De ole gemman dun bounce me, when he fin’ out ’L mt you and Miss Emly. f Lawd, but I’se gkd to see you. I’se been mighty neah start once or twice - ” Then they talked low and long. It came about presently that I had an opportunity to offer the Southerner a light for his cigar. Shortly I offered him a cigar. Presently wo were exchanging commonplaces that ripened into an interchange of opinion on various topics. At last I mentioned the strangeness of his meeting with the negro. I got the whole story. It would make the basis for an American novel. There died in Virginia some time ago the head of an old family of that State whose wealth footed up $7,000,000 or $8,000,000. Not a little of it was invested in New - York realty. By will the bulk of this property was left to a single heir, with bequests of $20,000 each to other heirs. There was talk of a contest of tho will. The prudent legatee made compromises. In the case most pertinent to this story he agreed with n son-in-law of the dead man that ho should receive £lOO,OOO for himsolf and £150,000 for each of his two daughters on the day they should become 21 years of age and sign a release. One of tho other heirs refused to com promise, brought suit against property in New York and recovered some 97 0,000. The son-in-law who had made a compromise lias been in mortal dread lest the two daughters whose fortunes he holds in his hands should niaiVy before reaching 21 <uid through their husbands should become induced to sue for a larger shure of tho fortune than bail been arranged under the compromise. They are beautiful Southern "'iris, 19 and 20 years of age, He is a widower. Lately he has devoted his entire time to their service, going about the country with them and zealously warding off suitors. He never remains long anywhere. Tho moment an acquaintance ripens between either one of them and a gentleman who becomes at all assidious in bis attentions, tho father quietly announces tlieir departure for some other place. His argument to his friends is that if either of the girls should be induced to bring a suit after marriage, she Would risk being compelled to accept the #20,000 awarded her under the will, even though her cousin was lucky enough to secure three-quarters of a million. The #400,000 that he is sure of under the compromise he thinks ample for them and for himself. They know nothing of the situation. The old darkey whistler was a servant of the family. The gentleman ojt the boat had been a suiter of one of the girls. His love had been returned, and the colored man had been the instrument through whom their courtship had bi-on carried oh, The father found it out, discharged the boy anil moved away so quickly that the lover found him self cut off from communication with his mistress. He had come North, he told me, in the hope of finding her at some of the watering places. Queer story, wasn’t it? Well, the queerest part of it is to come. Strolling along the I teach below the West End Hol< 1 that night I came across two fig ures walking so close to each other that the blindest observer would have known them to be lovers. It was my tall friend of the lioat and a graceful young woman, whose litue form and elastic step told of tho phy sical strength for which Southern women are noted, and at ;he same tint" of mental exaltation. Trailing along bock on the sands I noticed the whistling darky. He was creeping at a small pace but keeping a wary eye out. He had overheard some of the confidences tint the young Southerner hud poured into my ear. So when 1 winked at him in tho moonlight he grinned till ho showed every toot h in his head. Then he laughed with a suppressed guffaw ns ho said: “Yossir, yessir. Mas’r George dun fouri’ Miss Emily. J-awd lavas ’em. Yes sir, vessir. De ole man lie doan no nuflln ’lmut it. Land but I am dun glad, boss. ” I looked down the beach. The happy couple were still Rtrolling along in the moonlight. I like strolls myself and I en joyed their enjoyment. If there hasn't been an elopement from Long Branch since Saturday, there will be. BISHOP TAYI OB’S DAUGHTER. She Has Had a Romantic Career Since She Eloped From Her Mormon Homo. Prom the San Francisco Examiner. Tho romantic career of Annio Taylor, a daughter of John Taylor, the lately de ceased President of tho Mormon church, would fill a volume, and it strikingly iilus trates the old adage that “truth is stranger than fiction.” Annie Taylor always uses her maiden name, though sho has been thrice married, ami is now a widow appar ently 40 years of age, but still woll pre served. She is n dignified looking woman, and it is easy to s s' that she has known better days unit has had more luxurious sur roundings than now attend her. This 'laughter of the “President, Prophet, Seer •uid iievelator,” as her father was officially titled, is at present a resident of Sail Fran cisco, and lives in a small room in an ob scure lodging houso on Minna street, near Third. Blie has for years been at tho marry of futo, and Inis lived from hand to mouth, tv die saying is, constantly changing her abode from Stevenson, Clementina and Minna street* and vice versa. Auuio Tuylor well knows what the pangs of poverty ure, a* she lias for years lived a most precarious ex istence and always uncomplainingly. It is said that it is a long rood that hus no turn, and it is very likely that in her ruse the turn has come. The deceased Mormon President was a vory wealthy man, and it is not at all likely that in his will he has forgotten his wring yet favorite daughter Annie. When Annie Taylor was a beautiful voung woman of some twenty years of age. the pride of her parents and the adored ob ject of a young “Saint” who sought her hand and heart, she fell in love with a Gen tile, a lawyer, at the time a resident of Salt Lake. Her love was reciprocated, and in their stolen interviews they pledged them selves—as lovers have ever done—to be true to death. Asa marriage in the City of Saints was an impossibility, the young couple deter mined to elope, and elope they did, fleeing to California. The elopemont was discov ed soon after their flight, and a resolute band of Mormon boys, armed, and on fleet horses, pursued the infatuated twain, deter mined to rescue a flower of the church from the polluted touch of the hated Gentile. But the hunt was in vain. The gallant disciple of Blackstone distanced his fierce pursuers, and thus escaped being served with an illegal and peremptory habeas cor pus. The scandal at the time created a great sensation among the Mormons, as tho elopement of a Mormon girl with a Gentile was a rare thing in those days, and it shocked and grieved the whole community. Annie’s father being a leading member of the church, the trusted friend and ad viser of the then Great Mogul, Brigham Young, made the elopement all the more scandalous. When the runaway couple found themselves safely beyond the bounda ries of the saintly Zion, they drew a breath of relief, for, had the lawyer been captured, he would certainly have been shot to death instantly by his infuriated pursuers, while Annie would have been brought back to be in time the reigning mistress of some wealthy Mormon’s harom. But before long the lawyer husband changed to the legal Lothario, and the cup and the gambling table did the rest. To make a long story short, Annie Taylor found herself all alone in the great city of San Francisco with only a fow hundred dollars. She took elegant apartments in a large lodging-house on Kearny street. Soon afterward Annie mode the acquaint ance of a roving Baptist preacher, who, tak ing advantage of his sacred calling, played the hypocrite with consummate tact. He wooed Annio Taylor apd finally won her, and both were married in this city. The honeymoon had waned before he dis played his true colors. He got possession of what little money his wife hail, and then commenced a life of debauchery. A divorce quickly followed, and again the deceived and betrayed wife found nerself fell alone in the wicked world. This time she was compelled to give up her elegant rooms on- Kearny street and disap peared mysteriously, seeking seclusion m some side street or alley, where she thought she could never meet any one who had known her history. While in this seclusion it is known that she married for the third time, and her third venture was even more unfortunate than the two preceding ones. Her husband proved to be a depraved opium fiend, and nature at last abhorring his sight extended her mercies by putting an end to him. Thus for the third time the “Widow Annie Taylor,” as some call her, stands isolated and alone. Annie has a sister by the same mother in Salt Lake, whom she idolizes, and to this sister, and to her only, has she ever com municated her whereabouts. It is strange, too, that the sister in Salt Lake eloped some years ago with a Gentile, but she was captured, brought back and afterward married a prominent Mormon. FORGER HARVEY’S WIFE. She Returns to tho Home of Her Mother in West Chester. A dispatch from West Chester, Pa., to the New York 'times says: When the 8:05 train on the Pennsylvania railroad arrived from Philadelphia last evening at the Market street station a lady alighted whose face, though pale and agitated, still bore traces of the lieauty which made her so famous years ago when she was numbered among West Chester’s popular belles. It was Mrs. Fannie Harvey, the wife of the condemned Wash ington forger, Oscar J. Harvey, who goes to the Albany penitentiary next week to serve out his sentence of twelve years. She was unattended and her home-coming appeared to have been unheralded, since no friends appeared at the station to greet her. anil, passing by unheeding the numerous calls of hackmen, she walked through the statiau and turned into Market street in the direc tion of the home of her mother, Fedora Holding. Those who saw and recognized Mrs. Harvey mentally contrasted this home coming of hers with the brilliant occasion seven years ago, when she left West Chester a proud and blushing bride. Never before or since were wedding festivities here conducted upon such a grand scale. A whole train was chartered to convey the guests from various points to West Chester to witness tho wedding ceremonies. Car riages from every livery stable in town were kept in continuous motion bearing the friends of the bridal party from point to point, while florists, who were given carte blanche to provide tho choicest gems for the hothouse and conservatory, vied with each other in floral decorations which were the sensation of the hour. All these enormous expenses were provided for by Oscar J. Harvey, the groom, whose love of display, since disclosed in his house deco rations, was thus early developed. It was an occasion long to lie remembered by the citizens of West Chester, who, while in com mon with others they denounce the action of Harvey, have much sympathy for the woman who left her homo here seven years ago to become his wife. Mrs. Harvey came from Philadelphia, whore she has been staying for some time with Mrs. Charles Langaon, and will remain with her mother, Mrs. Holding for an in definite period. A REMARKABLE IDIOT. Kept Fastened with Strap and Manacle for Half a Lifetime. Providence Dispatch to Philadelphia Call. One of the most remarkable instance of idiocy, or lunacy, to lie witnessed in any ! part of the world may lie seen in an old | farmhouse in the town of Smitbfleld, about I seven miles from this city. Alnion Smith, I nearly 40 years of age, is fastened with strap | and manacle in a small room, is usually naked and has Ixien kept in this situation | for many years. This may seem incredible, I but it isj nevertheless, a fact, and, what i may seem oqnally incredible, Is that notli | ing lietter can bo done with the man. He i has been an idiot from birth, or at least ' from infancy. Jle has no intelligence what ever. not even that of the lowest state of tho brute creation, and does not even know lus mother, who, from babyhood up, has been his devoted attendant. The man is well formed, his head is of the round type and the brain apparently well developed. Ho does not talk, hut utters shrieks and cries at intervals, and some times tears at his head with his hands, ns if suffering pain. He is kept fastened to a staple in the floor, not from fear of his do ing violence to an)' one, to which he has never shown a disposition, but from appre hension that, in lii.s utter helplessness, he might hurt himself. His cries can some times be heard for a quarter of a mile, but ; as the house stands at some distance from [ flu' traveled highway tho public are not dis turbed. The Btate authorities investigated the case some time ago, and eamo to the conclusion that the man was better off where he was than he would lie in a lunatic asylum. In I the summer lime ho Is sometimes taken out and fastened to a tree for fresh air. Tho ease is especially singular for the reason that the unfortunata man’s health is ap parently excellent, apart from his utter idiocy.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1887. HIS INFORMATION BUREAU. Bill Nye Takes a Man Into His Confi dence and Educates Him. Prom the New York World. I havo received the following note from another anxious inquirer after truth: Jersey City, N. J., July 25. Dear Sir: Would you mind giving a little space to an explanation of naturaliza tion as practised in this country, together with its effects t How would I go to work to bocome naturalized? What are the first steps? What would bo the result of natu ralization here, or in New York city, in case I afterward concluded to return to England, where I was born ? What are my duties toward the United States pending my naturalization, and what are the duties of tho United States toward mo during the same time? What were the peculiar doc trines of the Druids? Which is proper to say, “sweat” or “perspire?” What is the most past or perfect tense of sweat? Would you advise a young man, 47 years of age, to begin the study of fifteen-ball-pool? What is tho peculiarity of classical music, and how can one distinguish it? What do you think of my handwriting? TRUTH SEEKER. Naturalization, according to Theodore D. Woolsey, who has practiced it for years, takes place when an alien transfers liis allegiance from the country of his origin and the sovereign of the same to another country and sovereign. Your best method for becoming naturalized in the State of New Jersey would be to write to her most gracious majesty, Queen of Great Britain, Empress of India, general assistant parent to his royai baldness tho Prince of Wales, and lending regina of tho known world, asking her to return your letters and hence forth to regard you only as a friend. Naturalization may be partial or com plete, and may be detected by any one who is a close observer. Naturalization is most likely to attack those who have formerly been aliens, and “allowed it to get tho upper hand of them.” Under the constitution of the United States uo naturalized cit izen can be President, and a great many who have not had uny difficulty of that kind find that this industry is overcrowded. So, if you come to this country with a burning desire to obtain employment as President, you had better give it up. We never elect a man who has been an alien, and who is liable to have it break out on him again whenever the sun gets very hot. We have made it a rule for years, if possible, to elect a thick set, self-made American citizen to the Pres idency, and then we feel froe to go and board with him, and make suggestions to him, and tread frosted cake into his body Brussels carpet. There are several steps that you might take in order to get naturalized in this coun try. Your maiden step, however, would l>e to get born on a foreign strand. You could then begin active preparations for becoming naturalized, such, for instance, as crossing the ocean, and while leaning over the piazza of the ship and peering down into the soft, green waves divesting yourself of your po litical disabilities. You could hurry up your naturalization here by enlisting in the army. You can. if 21 years of age, join the army. You would like it, too, I think. It would also be pleasanter for the army. Nothing lonelier can be conceived of than the picture of an army with no one to talk to. So, if you could be contented to unite with our army, I think it would be a good thing for both or you. If you came out of the war unscathed, you could be made an American citizen without further trouble, and if you became killed while noting ns the left wing of the regular army, your eternal welfare would be enhanced as soon as it was generally un derstood that you came from America. You do not state in your letter whether you are white or colored. You simply say that you are un Englishman. In writing to a newspaper you ought to be explicit and state your case fully. If. you are a white man from England, you may be naturalized by denouncing your own sovereign in un measured terms and naming your first daughter Francos. Your health would then lx’ good and your vote would be counted. If you are a colored Englishman, we would reserve the right to inquire who you voted for lief ore counting your vote. Y"iir duty towards the United States, pending your naturalization, would lie to write home us often as possible, referring to the great blessings of American freedom and showing the poor, oppressed foreigner how much (inickor and easier he can get his oppressing done here than elsewhere. The duty of the United States towards you in the meantime is to protect you from foreign invasion anil throw our navy around you so that you may go to bed every night without fear of invasion, for no foreign power would so far forget what is due to the age l or helpless as to attack our navy. So you would be always safe, and if you took plenty of exercise and did not get your feci wet while being naturalized you would make n good citizen hud enjoy good health. The duty of the United States towards an unnaturalized citizen is quite plain, but not irksome. The United States, as a republic, never allows its obligations toward the off spring of a monarchy to prey on it. So, if you wish to come forward and repent and be naturalized, you will always find the United States ready to treat you white. I do not know much about the Druids. Our folks were mostl)’ Whigs anil Episco palians. The Druids, as near as I can learn, were a kind of Ojx-n-air sect, who worshiped a sylvan god, ate watermelons during dog days and regretted it till the ground froze up. They were the first religious organiza tion to introduce the custom of borrowing money in this world with the understanding that it was to bo |>aid in the next. Prior to that the custom "Of drawing promissory notes and making them payable sixty days after death had never obtained. It was a good deal more fun to be a Druid than it was ! o run a general storo where tho Druids did t heir trading. If you are a poor man, sweat is good enough for you. If you keep help in the bouse, lot tlieni do tho sweating and von can perspire if you feel like It. The present of tho verb sweat is sweat; past, sweat or swat. The future tense will, in a measure, depend on the kind of life you lead here. If you are 47 years of age do not try to plav fifteen-ball pool, unless your money is making you its slave. I have only played two games of pool in' my life anil both times 1 got the No. H ball and, when it came my turn to play, other hands hail gathered the ixirsimmons. Once it was a saw-off, and I bad t he p'casiiro of c iting the leather tip off the end of my cue while tho others played, and then I contributed 81 75 to wards the enjoyment of parties who repaid my liberality with the coarsest and most brutal laughter. I have paid out between 8” and 84 for games thus far which I did not play. You can se ■ that a man 47 years of age, who went in with a firm determina tion to learn the game of )h 01, under such circumstances, would have to ho free from any organic or inherited disease in order to become skilful on this side of the grave. Very few men who Ix-gin at the age of 47 ever get so they can play fifteen-ball pool with any expression or chic. The peculiar characteristic of classictl music is t hat it is really so much bettor than it sounds. Ido not care to criticise your handwrit ing through the paper. If you will meet me at the foot of Put No. 1, at 7 o’clock this evening, I will toll you what I think of It, after which I will take a steamship for Coney Island, where I will lie swallowed up in the throng. Lot mo hear from you often. Bill Nye.
