Four Hundred Nickels in Change. From flic Birmingham (Ala. l Age. Supi. Morton,of the Union Kail wav Com pany, tells the following store: “When I first took charge of the road'the drivers complained to me of n certain Indy who rode down and back again every day with out paying fare. She would get aboard the car and hand the drive, a $2O bill to change. Of course, he could not change It, and could not ask fne lady to get off, so she rode free every trip. I decided that she was deliber ately boating the company, and determined to get even with her. One morning I gave one of the drivers, on the line which passed the lady's ho ns $2O in nickels, and in structed him t-- change the lady’s bill. She fell into the trap, an-1 about 10 o’clock boarded the right car on her way down town. She handed the driver the $2O bill, and he promptly returned her 400 nickels. She put her fare in the box, but she was so angry she left the car and did not ride again for a month. After that she always had change when she boarded a car. It. would surprise you,” continued Mr. Morton, “to know how man) peojile, especially ladies, beat the company out of then-fare iu this way. They tender a $lO or $2O bill, knowing very well that the driver cannot change it, and iu that way secure u free side,’ 1 JENNY LIND DEAD. The Swedish Nightingale's Voice Stilled Forever. London, Nov. 2. —Jenny Lind (Mine. ! Goldschmidt), the celebrate 1 Swedish singer, is dead. She was (itl years of age. She had been seriously ill for some weeks. She retired from the stage after tier niar j riage in America in 1853, but reappeared at j various concerts in aid of charities. She had not appeared in public since 180(5. Jenny Lind, who had universally been kinnvu a- the “Swedish Nightingale,” was born in Stockholm. There stvtns to I* some confusion about tiie date of her birth. Some authorities give this as Fob. 3, 1820, while others insist that slip came into the world Oct. 0, 1821. At any rate, her intro duction to the troubles of this mundane sphere was not under the most auspicious circumsfanftes. Her father was a teacher of languages, aud her mother varied the du ties of maternity with those of keeping a school for young women; consequently, Jenny was left very much to herself, an t grew up without, much to relieve the mo r.otony of a childish existence. But she found surcease for her sorrows in song. When she was only throe yeips oi l to sing was her ruling passion—every melody that struck her ear was retained with an accuracy which caused gen eral admiration; no work was done without accompanying it with her clear voice, and no pain during frequent illness prevented her from finding consolation in song. < toe day. when the child was about 8 years <>l i, Mrs. LunJberg, a Swedish actress, accident ally heard her sing, and was so surpi iseil by tne talent and native skill displayed by Jenny in the management of her voice that she strove to 0 .1/11 the eyes of tint child’s patents to the treasure they )*_.*- seised. Mrs. Lind, with the prejudices against the stage natural to a woman m her position in life, would not listen at first to ;my proposition lront Airs. Luudberir. However, the actress finally induced the mother to take her child to Herr Crobius. a music master living in Stectholm He. iipen hearing th little girl sing, was even m re astonished than Mrs. Lundberg at and instantly determined to present her to Count Pucke as a candidate for admission to the musical school attached to the Royal Theatre, of which the Count was the manager. After some tuition CkbUus took nis pupil before Pucke, who, measuring the gentle little creature with astonished eyes, at once demanded of CrOßHus what he meant to do with such a child, for she surely had nothing to fit her lor the stage. Crcclius undertook to argue the matter with Pucke and finallv secured permission for tiie child to sing. He awaited* with confidence tiie result, and scaicciy had she snug ten measures until the Count be came as enthusiastic as Oobllus and gave his permission for her entrance ,to the school. She was then placed under the care of Eras inns Berg, a profound and skillful musician. After studying under him for several years the Stockholm public was astonishe t one night at tiie appearance of a child in a vaudeville performance. This was Jenny Lind, who at once became a favorite and tne prospect of her growing into an operatic star was exceedingly flattering. But when about 14 years old her voice laded her, and she was compelled to retire from the stage. Crojlius, her old master, tried to re-awaken the tones of his favorite scholar, but could not. At length her voice returned, but it was not the voice she once had, nor had it yet acquired the wonderful beauty aud purity which marked it in later "years. After a concert tour throughout Sweden sue secured funds enough to take her to Paris, where she submitted her talents to Garcia, the famous teacher, who, however, told her that she must not expect to be come a great singer. He told her, though, to rest for three months and then return to him. Jenny managed to live through the period of her probation, though all alone in the great city, aud then again visited Garcia. He gave her hope. and she went industriously to work, and finally improved sufficiently to return to Stock holm. When in Paris Jenny met Meyer beer, the celebrated composer, and two years later he invited her to join the opera in Berlin, and in 1844 she went to the Prus sian capital. At flr-t she made but little impression on the public, as her voice had not yet returned. But one evening, when she was fsiuging in “Robert le Dial?!",” she felt that it had returned, and, inspired by the consciousness, sang the musico of Alice with such force and power that she electri fied tho public and astonished Meyerbeer, who, from that moment, regarded her as the first of singers. WHY SHE DIDN'T SING IN PARIS. From this point, her onward progress was rapid, t her reputation soon spread throughout Europe. She appeared in quick succession in all the European capitals, save one—Paris—and then visited the United States, Cuba and Canada. Jealousy and in trigue prevented her singing in the French metropolis. When Meyerbeer first met her in Paris, he recommended her most warmly to the director of the Acadetnie de Musique, who, complying with the maestro’s request-, fixed a day for hearing her at tiie theatre. Rossiui, Auber, Halevy, and other note! musicians were summoned to hen" her, but the director himself never made his nppear ance. Mile. Rosina Stoltz, the then reign ing queen of the Academic’* musical corps, was the mistress of the director, aud she forbade his presence on the occasion. Thus, not even an offer was made to Miss Lind. She was so offended by this gratuitous in sult that she would never after consent to appear in Paris. Jenny Lind’s voice was a soprano of great power. Its compass was two and a half octaves. The upper notes especially were clear, delicious intone, flexible and perfectly at her command. Her voice was not the less remarkable in its sweetness and perfect purity of tone. Of the myriad of critics who heard her after her voice recovered its power not one could utter a syllubletif dis paragement as regards the popular esti mate of her surprising talents. Her dra matic genius was of an order as high as her natural vocal powers and recondite musical science. At the close of 1*45 the affairs of the Lon don opera had reached a crisis which com pelled extraordinary enterprise on the part of Mr. Luiuley, the manager of Her Majesty’s Theatre. The whole operatic troupe, headed by Costa, the conductor, had abandoned the the it re and established themselves at Cm > lit • •• len. Lumlev had but cue resource, v z,: to -cure Miss 1,in.l at any price. Shi s. . for -<1 engagements in London and on the t lit in -at. the forfeits ot which Luiuley had .o pay. After ar rangements had been completed with Miss Linu, Luiuley a f tempted to secure for her au adequate support. In this be was only partially successful, and Miss Lind found herself pitted against, a very strung opposition, which she finally van quished, and won the favor of the London public. Her In-r appearance on the operatic stage took place May 18.1849. The cause of her retirement is said to have been the ob jection of a man to whom she was engaged to be married to her further appearance. This engagement was afterward broken off. Tiie operas with which she was most identi fied were “Robert le Diable,” “Der Frei schutz," “Nonna,” “Lucia di Larnmer moor,” “La Figlia del Regimeuto,” Spou tini’s “Vestale,” and Mozarts "Flauto Magico.” After her retirement from opera she still continued to sing in oratorios and concerts, and was on the Continent thus engaged when, m 1849, P. T. Buinum. the well known showman, conceived the idea of bringing lier to this country. After con siderable negotiation he agreed to pay Miss Lind the non astonishing price of"91,0U0 each for 150 concerts, he to have the option of closing tho engagement after 150 had been given. This contract was modified after a time. In addition, Mr. Bariiumwas to pay all her expenses and those of her ser vants and attendants. She stipulated that she must lie accompanied by Mr.Julius Bene dict (now Sir Julius), the London com poser and director, and Sig. Beltetti, the Itiliun baritone. Mattel's were arranged with these artists, and Mr. Barnum tnen TIIE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1887. deposited wdh Ins l.ond >n bankera $187,50“. t iie amount, which it was > stiumted wi ul.l be necessary to carry out It is pa tof he (amtiact.

She arrived in New York Sun i day, "sjpt. 1, 1 850, and thousands of jieopie were gathered on the docks to greet her.

The gross receipts of the con concerts were $712,161. of which Miss Liml received $17(5,075 and Mr B trnum $535,48(5. HER HOMF. LIFE. After her marriage she,with her husband, returned to Europe. They lived in Dresden some time, und in 185(5 returned to London, where they continued to reside. Three chil dren were born to them, one daughter and two sons Their home for years was a house covered with vines and surrounded by trees and flowers, but Jenny L ed was for a long tune a confirmed invalid, and would very rarely see the casual caller. To all Americans who knocked at her door to pay their respects, the servant, who has lived with her tor the last thirty years, delivered ih - message that “Jenny Lind wishes them to say tha : she will never reuse to love the American people with all her heart.” In private life Jenny Lind had been a m>t charming woman. She was very charitable, and was in the habit of, without material recompense, giving musical in struction to a class of poor young women. LORD PAGET’S STORY. The English Vagabond Sharp Once More at Large. Lord Paget, the counterfeit English nobleman, alias Baron Matrey, Monnero, Balleiityne, and half a dozen others, whom adventures North and South created so much stir last summer and who made Sa vannah a brief visit, has been released from jail in New Orleans, where lie has been for sometime. Before leaving he told the story of his life, refusing, however, to give his true name, because in the light of his ad ventures during tho past few mouths it would reveal his identity. After reciting the history of his boyhood, which is about the same as that of the aver age boy, he told how at the age of 18 his fa; her sent him to Cambridge, and lie be came an undergraduate of Magdelene College with an allowance of £I,OOO per an num ($5,000). He soon got into a fast set, and what with Newmarket being near, ami bookmakers who gave one good tips, money tenders, etc., his thousan i wus nowhere. He was finally expelled from college and his father sent him adrift with £10,0i)0 and told him to leave England and never set foot on English soil again. “i lost £B,(MO at gambling,” he said, “be fore 1 got out of Europe, and arrived in Australia with less than £I,BOO in ray pos session. This, of course, I soon squandered away, trying one speculation and another, and at last I had not a sou left, when I met an old school friend, named Bayley, who obtained me a passage to England and lent rue $lO. I turned up at home and had a stormy Interview with my father, who said I should never see another penny of his money liefore his death, and then ail that was in his power he would leave away from me. He eventually, however, told ine lo call on his solicitors. The next (lay I did, and was told as long as I gave my word never to return home during my father’s life I should have an income of £3OO a year unless I would agree to cut off the entail, in which case I should receive the sum of £IOO,OOO down; I refused. My father hav ing three entailed estates an i a property in London that must descend to me, huving altogether an income therefrom of £15,000 per annum.' In as not insane enough to sell my birthright for a mess of pottage.” Paget said that he gets the £2OO sent in January to am address or any name in the world. He finally drifted into Germany, where he met his friend Bayley, who was masquerading under the name Paget. He had been hiding from the English detec tives for some months, and had baffled them by enlisting, but lie had finally seen his opportunity and got aboard a boat and got safely away. “1 next came to America,” 'said Paget, “and here, again, my ill-luck came on, and when 1 arrived in Toronto, under tho name of Balleiityne, I kept up appearances, and 1 got into society, but left in debt, and taking a leaf out of Baylev’s book, 1 cashed a check on a bank I had no account at I soon got into the wav of it; I have cashed in New York and Newport eleven in all. They have been the first, aud as sure as there is a heaven above, they will lie the last. Paget said he is now going to Mexico and South America to retrieve his fallen name and fortunes. Relative to the aliases ho assumed he saul that after leaving Bayley at Cologne, having traveled that tar in company, he went to Wcisbadeii, Frankfort-on-the-Main, Heidelburg, Basle, Nantes, Monte Carlo, Cannes, Aix le Baines, Turin, Florence, Pisa. Leghorn, Rome and Naples under the name of Paget. At Palermo and from tli-re to New York he was known as Baron .Matrey; in Toronto. Can., as Balientyne. Returning to the United States, at Larch inont, near New York, lie again assumed the name of Puget, and sailed under these colors until he reached Jacksonville, when he became AVood—and now he lias no name. About Asphalt. Frum the Philadelphia Call. “The most of the asphalt comes from Trinidad,” said a dealer in the article tea ('••II reporter. “Trinidad, you knmv.es the the most southerly of the group of the West Indies, known as the Windward Islands, aud is next to Jamaica. La Brae, the lake from which the asphaltum is taken, ha- an area of 150 acres. Charles Kingsley’s more recent and exact measurement reduces tiiis area to Bit acres. This, however, contains millions of tons of the crude pitch, which, in its refined state, is becoming so rapidly popular on this continent from the imperish able nature of the pavement constructed from it. Asphaltum is also found in other parts of the island. Though called a lake or lagoon, this depot of pitch is for the most part a solid mass, rent, however, by chasms varying from three to thirty feet in width, with no great depth, so thin they are trav ersed without much difficulty. Here aud there, wherever there is any soil, are clumps of trees. The liquid portion of the lake lies on the side nearest the sea, and only occu pies a few acres in extent and of unknown depth. The vast caldron of fluid pitch is in a state of slow ebullition and exhales a strong sulphurous and bituminous odor.” Feathers are very rich in nitrogen and should be used to add to the strength of tho manure heap. Like bones they may be quickly reduced bv soaking them in a solu tion of sulphuric'acid und covering them with a coarse compost, with which they may be subsequently mixed. Indeed, so strong are they that if pnqieiTy distribute 1 and applied the results on a crap of corn will lie surprising.
