"First, you are legitimate and the child
of marriage. I cannot keep the secret, be
cause I cannot retain life much longer and
because all human vengeance seems useless.
I can reveal to you almost all your life.
You thing that no one in your present life
knows anything about you but yourself,
aud you nave sbut them in the bottom of
vjur heart. To make sure that the things
i am about to tell you are true, listen:
•‘Until Oct. ti you believed yourself the
son of George Latham of L , Mich. In
a moment cf great anger he told you that
vou were a natural son. That night you left,
and you have never spoken to tbe other
since. They believe you dead. George
Latbam, 1 am sure, believes you to be what
be has said, but he regrets i ilterly that he
has betrayed tbe confidence of his sister.
•I cm going to tall you about your fam
ily. Your grandmotner, the mother of
your mother, was the Duchess de Saiut
Allaize of N rmandie. Her marriage "as
very miserable, the Duke de Saint Allaize
being well known. After having spent the
fortune of your grandmother, he com
menced agiinst her a suit for divorce. Hav
u g lost love and courage, the duchess fled
to America, taking with her her only child,
a baby, your mother, Victoria do Saint
Allaize.
‘ But a little whi'e after her arrival in
America the Duchess entered the convent of
tie Ursuliues at New Orleans, where she
died five years later. Her child, Victoria,
remained in the care of the sisters until tbe
age of 18, when her great talent for music
caused the Mother Superior to have her
cboosebetween the world and the convent.
During her probation she met and loved a
confederate soldier by tiie name of Claude
Hector Rosaire. This man, your father, was
only of French extraction, tracing his
French blood from his great grandfather
who was a creole. The 6th of October, 1563,
they were married, as you will soe by the
incised certificate. Immediately they fled
to Canada.
A’ow, this man Rosaire was not the only
man loved Victoria de Saint Allaize, but
be was the only rnau she loved. I never
pardoned them, aud followed them as a

A LION LOC SE IN LBN VER
Lassoed in a 1 r?e by a Dari g- Young
Cowboy.
EVoin the Denver Republican.
Early last eveuing the people of We-t
m tho vicinity of Ninth ar.d
Cham. tx streets, we.o thrown int > a state of
the wildest excitement.
A full-. rown mountain liont rn> ind the
neighborhood with a display of vicious tem
per, sending icy ante-mortem chills down
the spinal columns cf the fl e.ng men,
women and children.
The lion is the property of H. W. Wilson,
a gentleman living at No. 113:)Nimh street.
Yesterday, as usual, tbe auirnal was sun
ning himself benii and the bars of a strong
iron cage in the Lack yard. Tbe beast had
been taken from the freedom of his moun
tain confines about a year ago and brought
to the narrowed limits or u pri-on but live
feet wide and ten long. Ihe iion had been
a roamer in the Eagle river country in his
early youth. One dav a y-auper s mred
him, b-fore his now evide .t physical
strength had been developed.
SUPPOSEDLY AS TAME AS A CAT.
Mr. Wilson, being fond of animals,
adopted trie lion and brought him u> his
West Denver residence. During the past
year tho pet of the family grew to feline
manhood, and is a fine specimen of las
tribe. A lioness has been aided to his
domicile to keep him c >mpany. Yes
terday a dog atpachid to the
Wilson family began amusing himself by
making insinuating remarks to the lien
family. The usually even temper of th)
master of the cage was unruffled for a time,
but tbe remarks of his unwelcome visitor
becoming so annoying he made a desperate
effort to reach his tormentor through the
bars of the prison. In the language of the
prize ring. Be “fell short. ” Then, with a
sudden and impetuous dash, the lion forced
his muscular frame between the irons aud
gained his liberty.
The dog disappeared in an instant. The
lion, dazed by his coming in contact with
the bars of the cage, recklessly dashed ahead
without regard to the course he was taking.
An open door was across the pathway.
With one jump he landed in a room where
Mr. Wilson and his family were at supper;
a second leap carried him across the table
without touching anybody in tho party,
and in less than a wink the front yard was
reached. The animal no doubt by this time
was badly frightened as the people
who saw him, for he butted against a fence
having iron bars a quarter of an inch thick,
bonding them into arcs equal to a semi
circumference and allowing him to pass
through. The lion then started on a go-as
you-please gallop out Ninth street towards
Champa. The neighbors fled for cover. At
Ninth and Champa streets a stately tree
stood inviting in the lion’s track.
Obeyingjtbe instinct bred in the days of
his early mountain life, be climed the tree
and awaited developments. For a long
time he was left unmolested. Pedestrians
along Ninth street were scarce, and those
who did not go too far to retreat were
warned to look out for the ‘‘menagerie.”
The simplest way of disposing of the lion
would have been to have killed him. Mr.
Wi.aon, however, being satisfied that the
animal was good-natured and harmless,
under ordinary c r u nstances, did not want
to go to this ex.reme before measures for the
lion’s capture had been tried. Meantime both
men and blast were quiet. Evidently each
was sparring for wiud. The lion was com
fortably ensconced among the loaves on tho
apex of the tree, and began to feel more
friendly towards mankind; so much so that
he made a move to again visit the earth.
Again the street was cleared of interested
spectators. The strain was too much for a
very nervous man iu the crowd. He thought
of tow he migf t possibly be called on to
furnish a steak for the lion, who was sup
posed to be hungry.
Then a brilliant idea struck bim; he
sent,in an alarm to police headquarters, and
called for the patrol wagon. The officers
and the wagon arrived. The lion was
sighted. Three brave men instinctively
reached for their revolvers.
“Don’t shoot,” said a voice from some
where.
“Catch him.”
“Take him to the station and put him in
the bull pen,” suggested a sarcastic iadi
ua).
“Give him to the hoboes to play with,”
chimed in another.
The wagon was turned toward the city
hall. Three sad meu accompanied it. They
hap notbeeu trained to wrestle with moun
tain lions, and were compelled to beat an
inglorious retreat.
“Here’s a man who will corral the lion,”
was tbe encouraging shout as a cowboy
came to the scene.
The cowboy was a man named Lewis,
who did not shirk the task of twisting the
lion’s tail or capturing him in tbe least.
* ‘Yes, I have had some practice on them
fellers,”he said. I lassoed five of ’em last
winter, up in the mountaius. and I reckon I
can do this one.”
A rope was secured and then the fun com
menced.
After several ineffectual attempts Lewis
gracefully threw the loop over the animal’s
neck and shoulders. But the animal was not
to be cajoled as easily as was anticipated.
The rope was drawn taut and made breath
ing difficult for the beast. He advanced
several feet toward the ground and then
refused to budge. Suddenly ho slid in the
direction of tbe crowd which had gathered.
Consternation! Lewis was left al me.
Then tho lion again ascended the tiiee.
Finally, after much maneuvering, he
reached the ground in a fainting condition.
One man’s curiosity got the better of his
judgment, and he approached the animal
for an inspection. He was promptly
cinched on the leg by the beast, but escaped
being bitten.
The lion was then tied with cords and
hauled back to his cage. The people of the
neighborh ,od are still congratulating tbein
selves that none of their number were sacri
ficed. Mr. Lewis is the hero of the affair,
especially among the small boys who wit
nessed his pluck. Later in the evening a
reporter for the Republican called on ~\lr.
Wilson, who said that tie had never known
the lion to act in a vicious manner before
the escapade of that day. He will prob
ably dispose of the auirnal to some men
agerie.
Tho lion positively refused to be inter
viewed, and tbe reporter was glad of it.
RAILROAD JACK.
His Wonderful Traveling—Some of His
Peculiarities and Eccentricities.
From the Boston Globe.
“Railroad Jack” has struck town again.
He came m at the Albany station with
National Express Messenger M. C. Hastings
about 9 o’clock yesterday morning, having
boarded Mr. Hastings’car at Albany at 1:30
a. m., and probably will condescend to stay
in Boston until Mr. Hastings returns on bis
next trip.
Every railroad man in New England and
New York has a personal acquaintance with
this hybrid terrier, and every trainmau in
the country has heard of him. He never
feels really at home off a train, and his little
plump form, clipped ears and stumpy tail,
about t he size of a cigar “butt,” are familiar
to hundreds of baggagemasters all over the
country.
If Jack acknowledges any place ns home
it is Albauy, where he is claimed by the
attaches of the New York Central railroad
station. He boards at the Delavan house,
walking unceremoniously iuto the kitchen
whenever he is hungry and mutely appeal
ing for sustenance. He is never refused,
and is as fat as a pumpkin. Jack comes to
Boston this time in sort of undress togs, as
it were. A colored uian in Albany made a
clip at Inm with an ice pick a few weeks
ago, and struck him in the breast, and bis
frlonds have taken off his collar to allow the
wound to heal.
How such a thing oould have happened
railroid men at this end of the line cannot
conjecture, for Ja k is one of the best
uatured dogs in the world, and never bis
been known to set bis t*-;tli into anything
except his dally proveiuldr.
Jack is about 9 years old, and weighs per-
THE MORNING NEWS? SUNDAY. AUGUST 10. 18£0—TWELVE PAGES.
bap> thirty or To - y pound*. He I*s
traveled nearly all bls life, nut how bo fir.-*
b->ea e taken * itb his mania for trairs is
not known. He has been to San Franc s-o
three times, a->d his tripsoverNew Eng a id
ai.d through New York state arc innumera
ble.
His modus openndi is simple enough.
He just biards a train, squats h mself down
in a baggage car, a> and there he i<. The in
ter-state commerce law hasn’t bothered him
a bit, for he systematically evaded the law
before it wa- passed, and u i subsequent rail
road legislation of any kind has seemed to
produce the least improvement in his mor
als.
Jack acknowledges no master in rarticu
lar, but always is loyal to whatever bag
gage master or express messenger may ba;>
pen to be his host.
So, while it may ! e said against him
that he is easily “off with tho old love and
on wi h tbe now,” and that hecau be happy
with ei her dear charmer if the other hap
pens to be giu ig in the opposite direction,
and ether u kind tbiugs that might hurt
his feeling rnav be said of him, a more com
plimentary, more appreciate statement of
the c nditi .n of things would be that he is
always faithful to his nearest friend. Some
times w hen he strikes the end < f the route
he will remain with tail latest friend, the
baggagomaster, until the return trio; then
again a freaky streak will chassez through
him, and he will hop aboard the next Al
bany bound express without remark or
apology. He never >ee:ns to make any
mistake about embarking. He has no use
for local trains, but jumps aboard the ex
presses every time and without asking any
questions. Nor does he always lo f around
tho station, as if waiting for his train to
turn up, but saunters down just before
train time, and piles himself into the bag
gage car with the nonchalance of experi
ence.
One of Jack’s favorite trips is from Al
bany to Now York. He beards a West
Shore train at Albany, and, getting out at
the Weehawken station, crosses the ferry
and trots up through Forty-second street to
the New York Central station, where he
takes a train for heme, thus enabling him
self to eujoy the scenery on both sides qf
the river. Occasionally he will mane a run
up to Montreal, changing cars at Saratoi a
without the assistance or suggestion of any
body. Indeed, he knows when and where
to change cars as well as any regular pat
ron of the road on which he is traveling.
His whole life is one consistent eccen
tricity, and his peculiarities do not, there
fore, break out in spots, but he has one
cranky idea that is inexplicable, except as a
matter of mere surmise. He will not enter
an Erie car; no persuasion can get him into
one. Even if an Erie baggage car—he
never rides in passenger cars—happens to
be among other passenger cars on a New
York Centrai train, he will avoid as if he
were afraid it was going to explode. How
he cau tell it from any other no one knows,
but the trainmen say that he will walk
along beside it, glance up at it with a know
ing look, ar.d turn tail on it deliberately.
Once or twice he was carried into an Erie
car and detained by closed doors until the
train was in motion, but he bolted like a
streak of lightning at the next station and
took a local train back.
THE YOUNG MAN OF TO-DAY.
His Paraphernalia More Interesting
Than the Toilet of the Coquette.
Af. E. IP. in the Providence Journal.
Pleasant is the path of the young man in
these days. He is at a premium. If a youth
be well bred, well dressed and moderately
agreeable, his life is a bed of roses. Petted,
courted, feted, he may make a roui and of
visits at the best country houses, dine out
every night, bask in the smiles of maneu
vering mammas and their exquisite daugh
ters, and do nothing in the world but re
ceive these favors with a bored nonchalance
and utter platitude in stained-glass atti
tudes. He is a lily of the field, and neither
toils nor spins. And Solomon in all his
glory could not hold a caudle to one of
these.
Why, did you ever have a chance to peep
into the apartments of one of these rare
exotics of the century? His valet, for he
always has or e, may be induced by suffi
cient bribery to allow you to penetrate its
mysteries. There you may gaze upon his
fopperies of silver-mounted dressing case,
luxurious bath, wraps aud dressing gowns,
his silken pajamas, his embroidered hose of
every hue under the suu, his varnished
boots on forests of trees, his ninety pair of
trousers, that number being absolutely re
quired to carry him through the exigencies
of a fashionable existence; his waistcoats,
embossed, gilded, artistic, his coats and
jackets, from the flannels of morning to the
tailless dinner coat he dons at night; his
piles of rainbow-colored neckties, his
innumerable hats, the shining Piccadilly
tile cheek by jowl on the shelf
with the soft yellow silken nondescript be
wears on the polo field, and his jewel cases
filled with the rings that adorn his delicate
hands, the studs that glitter on his immacu
late expanse of shirt bosom in the evening,
and the jeweled pins that hold his cravat in
place. Far more interesting than auy
coquette's toilet are the paraphernalia and
intricacies of his, and when he sallies forth
to sun himself upon the casino balcony in a
dolce far niente, he is a sight to bring te trs
into the eves of the thoughtful beholder.
Only in Newport is this choice production
to be seen at the height of his glory, and
not even madame’s Parisian elegancies of
attire can compete with the interest that he
arouses in the soul of the wandering excur
sionist from Tombstone, Ariz., who has
never gazed on hia like before.
One of these dandies, in yellow flannels,
striped with white, with white shoes upon
his slender feet, a yejlow sash of surah silk
folded about his manly waiat, a primrose
crape necktie with a single huge pearl repos
ing in its delicate folds, a boutonniere of one
pale Marechal Neil rose and a spray of maid
enhair, a white Alpine hat on his blonde
and hyacinthine locks, sauntered slowly
down the avenne on a sunny noontide last
week, with an expression of delicious ennui
in bis aristocratic features. Opposite James
Gordon Bennett’s stone villa he came face to
face with a young fellow of about his own
age. dressed in an ill-fitting suit of pepper
and salt homespun; a battered Derby hat
was perched back from a good-natured sun
burnt face, and his clumsy square-toed
shoes had evidently known little of the
blacking brush’s render care. But he was
the very personification of alertness and
vigor, aud presented such an amusing con
trast to the listless figure of the youth
whom he encountered that thp latter, not
such a fool as he looked, could not help the
ghost of a smile at the meeting.
But the country lad turned and stared
open-mouthed at the ecstatic vision lounging
by. Then he looked down at himself with a
long deprecating sigh and the iron entered
iuto his soul. With a sinking sense of his
own unworthiness he went back to his
western wilds, feeling acutely the great gulf
fate had fixed between him and the primrose
flannels, and struggling to formulate his
dim recognition of that great now truth of
the time thp.t "a well-dressed man’s the
noblest work of God.” Ah, yes! As an eye
opener Newport has advantages not equaled
by any other watering place.
A Little Farm in Hie Boot.
Prom the Guleph ( Ontario ) Herald.
It is not often that grain is found to grow
in a man’s boots, but such a case is re
ported. A farmer brought a pair of boots
to a Guelph cobbler to tie repaired. When
the shoemaker commenced operations on
them he found grain growing to the length
of several inches. Such ts certainly a
curiosity.
