She progressed rapidly until one da she found that her voice had le t her. toe could no longer tine and could scarce*- speak. Her money was nearly all gone kid she was in despair. One day in desperaion she went to the Baroness Rothscbi and and related her story. That charitable lad- listened and fiually gave her fl.UuO. VVth this money she was enabled to secure pr.per medical treatment and to recover he voice. At this time the also telegraphed to Eugene Wetherell to come to her in Paris if he still enter tained his old friemsbip for her. He was then in the drug hisin. ss in John street, but Le did not vt at to settle his affairs or. even pack his ward'oho. With only a grip betook ti e next aeamer to Europe, and shortly after his irrival in Paris he a. and Emma Abbott wen married. The marriage was kept a secret )0r several months, and might havo been guarded longer had it not been for Ernest iye, the famous London impresario. After the recovery of her voice Miss Abbott h..d made such progress in her choßen profession as t> obtain an engage ment with live ic London. '1 hero she ade her appearance ji “The Dau hter of tue [ Regiment,” and sang with success in one or two . ther operas aud in concert. Finally (lye cast her for the role of Vio.etta in “La Iraviata.” To ti e impresario’s amaze ment the young American refused the role, on what was to him at le ist the extraordi nary ground that the opera was immoral, and teat she could not consent to be con nected with a representation of it. Gye stormed, hut it was of no use. Emma Abbott was firm in her resolve to have coth.ng to do with “I,a Traviata,” and in this Eugene Wetherell warmlv seconded her. Gye demanded to know what Wetb e ell had to do with the matter, and the latter replied that he had everything to do with it, as he was Emma Abbott’s husband. The general particulars of the row occa- lioudd by Miss Abbot’s refusal to appear iu “LaTraviata” were telegraphed all over the vorid, and c ented a sensation in America. Tie members of Dr. Cuamu’s church were delighted with the stand taken by their protege, and with the pluck she had mani fested. They were not so well pleased, how ever, when they learned that Miss Abb >tt tad marri and Eugene Wetherell, and thev congregated in something akin to an indig nation meeting. Ail this discussion of the question, however, was an excellent adver tisement for Emma Abbott, and when she on afterward returned to America and gave a series of concerts there was great wnosity to see her. Her success in concert, however, did not Kt'-sb her ambition, and about fifteen J eers she formed a combination with 7Hess, which was known as the Emma Abbott and C. D. Hess Opera Company, ness furnished everything, and gave her a warn percen age of the receipts. She employed at this time as her individual manager James W. Morrissey. The scheme vas to present English opera. Miss Abbo, t’s American operatic debut was made at Col.

Miss Abbott was listening to a minister preaching in Nas ville, Tenn. His theme was the stage, and he abused actors and actressea aud their vocation without mercy. Miss Abbott listened u til he was nearly through, and then rising in the congrega tion, denied all that he had sated. and pro ceeded to debate the question with the rever-nd gentleman. She has always re tained her love for church choirs, however, and it has been a favorite pastime of hers, en tour, to spend some time on Sundays In the choir loft of some local church, and to take the soprano’s place during the service. Among her devoted friends were Horace Greely and Robert G. Ingersoll, both of whom did much toward her advancemnt in her early struggles. WORK OF THE HOUSE. The Compulsory Pilotage Question Again Brought Up. Washington. Jan. 6. —ln the House to day Mr. Spooner, from the committee on military affairs, reported the military academy appropriation bill. It was placed upon the calendar. On motion of Mr. Farquhar of New York, a bill was pass and to limit and govern the changing of the names of vessels; also, a bill requiring ve seis to display their names on both sides of their bows. Mr. Hopkins of Illinois called up a bill exempt! g American coastwise sailing ves sels. piloted by licens and masters or by United States pilots, from the obligation to pay state pilots for services not rendered. Mr. Cummings of New York raised the auescion of consideration. ‘ The House refused —yeas 74, nays 123—t0 consider the bill. Mr. Dinglev called up the bill repealing the law authorizing the President to suspend tonnage dues. After some debate it was passed. Mr. Farquhar of New York nnved that the House go into committee of the whole for the consideration of the shipping bill. Mr. Sp inger of Illinois moved as an amendment that the committee consider the bill defining options. The motion was re jected bv a vote of 96 to lOL ' Mr. Farquhar’s motion was then agreed to—yeas 117, nays 93. WHKKUSR’S OPPOSITION. Mr. Burrows took the chair, and Mr. Wheeler of Alabama was accorded the floor in opposition to the measure. He opposed it, he said, because it took still more from the ha d-earned money < f the la. mer and the laborer. He conte ded that every ef fort heretofore made to build up shipping by subsidies had failed, and had produced exactly opposite results to what had been expected. AN ORGANIZED LOBBY. Mr. Herbert of Alabama said that an organized lobby bad been at work for ten years to press this bill through; and it was here now because it saw its last opportunity for years to come. The Republican party was about to go out of power in the House. Before it went, it proposed to leave as a legacy, as a codicil to the McKinley bill, a constantly increasing debt for the next twenty years. If there were any one thing that had been said by people in the election last November, it had been that they were opposed to subsidies and bounties. If there was any good reason why the man who ploughed the sea was any more entitled to a bounty than the man who ploughed the land, be had not heard it. republican claptrap. It was was s id that commerce followed the flag, and by clap-trap maxims of that kind it was expected to pass this bill. If this were true, the American flag disap -1 earing, American commerce should also be falling into “innocuous desuetude.” But what was the fact? In 1860 the United States did 70 per cent, of its foreign carry ing trade, now it did but per cent., but in the meantime the commerce of the coun try had steadily increased; so that commerce did not follow the flag. He opposed the bill on the ground that It would grant subsidies to useless ves-els. Under its provisions any sort of vessel could secure a subsidy. Under them the Uni ed States would never get a single vessel which would be worth a cent to the navy. farquhar grows visionary. Mr. Farquhar asserted that, if the till passed, within two years the sea would be covered by vessels carrying the American flag. Mr. Herbert replied that that assertion was merely a prediction. TV by not put a provision in the bill that no money would be paid to any vessel which was not calcu lated to do proper work and would be avail able for use in the navy? If this were do e, he might vote for the measure. Throe times had the system of subsidies been tried by the Uuited States, aud throe times had it been abando ed. Fending the conclusion of Mr. Herbert’s remarks the commiLeo rose aud the House adjourned. EUCK IN WASHINGTON. He is Trying to H.-eten the Considera tion of Accounts. Washington, Jan, 6. —Col. Buck ar rived last night, and will be here the rest of the week. He says he is here to hasten the consideration of accounts iu the first controller’s office. He was at the capitol to-day on errands, he said, for friends, none of them beb:g political. It is understood that he brought a soot of qualified consent from Judge Newman for the Athens court bill. His idea seems to be that if the cc urt offices can all be kept in Atlanta there is no objection to holding court in Athens. This does no; seen conclusive to the members of the Senate judiciary com mittee, who have charge of Mr. Carlton’s bill, and may not prove enough to get toe bill through. (Jol. Buck does not know why Runy has uot been appointed postmaster at Americus, as be expected, and still expects. Asked about bis letter recommeudiug the promotion of Lie ;t. Garlington, who was appointed from Atlanta, for gallintry in the Indian fighting, he said he nad had no response fro u the Secretary of iv ar, but hoped it would help Lieut, Garl ngton get what ho so well deserved. FIGHTING OVER THE BRICK. The Director of the Mint Pupports the tuperinteDdent’s R fusal. Washington, Jan. 6.— Messrs. Merrick and Morse, the gentlemen who recently tendered a silver brick to the superintend ent of the mint at Philadelphia to be made into silver dollars for their benefit, to-day made a written demand upon the director of the mint to instruct he superintendent of the mint at Philadelphia to receive and coin the silver bullion as requested. director teach’s reply. Director Teach replied to sustaining the actiou of Sup;. Bobyshell, quoting the law governing the action of the mint, and giving the information that on the date tne tender was made the superintendent of the mint was instructed to pay $1.03% per ounce, whi’e compliance with the Colorado men’s demand would have meant the pur chase of their silver at $1.2929. SICK SENATORS. Both of the Members From Georgia on the List. Washington, Jan. 6.—The democratic sick list in the Senate is growing. Both the Georgia senators are absent on aocount of illness. Senator Hearst of California is so 111 with (it is reported) cancer of the stom ach, that his recovery is regarded as doubt ful. Senator McPherson of New Jersey has bee i in bed for several days so side with gasiritis as to be unable t > see any one. Seuator Colquitt is confined to his house by temporary illness. THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 7, 1891. GEORGIA'S ACHOGLS. Commissioner Bradwell Counts on a Five Months Term- Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 6.—With press and people all over the state the impression seems to have obtained lodgment that the legislature passed the Jackson educstio al bill, and that six months schools may be locked for. Commissioner Bradwell said to-day: “The actual increase in the com mon school fun 1 arising from reoe t legis lation amounts to $170,000 only.. Had the Jackson bill, whi h got stuck iu the Senate, become a law, the provision would the i have been sufficient for the support of six montus schools. As it is, the schools will be kept open five months. Tne money availa ble will do no m re. I have just been mak ing a calculation and find that it will just about cover expenses for runniug them for that length of time. BASIS OF HIS CALCULATION. “The basis of my calculation is 5 cents a day, $1 a month or $5 a year for each scholar. Tha school year extends from July 1,1890, to July 1,1891. In tabling the vari ius ite .is of the fund, with the s mrces from which th y are I therefore treat separately the rental of the state road for the past six months and the six months yet to come, the revenue from this souice being, in the iatttr instance, so much greater. The fund, according to my figures, is made up asto.lows: General appropria tion, $500,000; half ths state r>ad rental, July 1. 1891, to Jan. 1, 1891, $75,000; half t e state road rental to July 1, next. $105,000; dividend from the Georgia Jrailroad stock, #2,046; liquor tax (estimated), $72,000 net; fertilizer inspection fees (eestimatedl, $l7,OuJ; hire of the state convicts (estimated), $17,000; tax on shows. $1,302; t x ou property, excess over the $360,000,000 available iu 181, $139,592; t tal appropriated $929,000. De duct the expenses of the state school de partment, $5,000, a id the > et amount fro n the appropriation is $924,000. To this add $200,000, the estimated aggregate poll-tax re ained iu the various couutie, and the toial for common schools is found to boas above." Mr. Brad well’s calculat.on shows the cost of the schools during tbo time they are in operation to be $224,800 cer month. The Jackson bill would have added to the present fund in the neighborhood of $300,- 000, easily covering the expense of au extra month’s work. fcENSA HON3 A P BRUNSWICK. A Fight on the Street—The Evening Post Suspends. Brunswick, Ga., Jan. 6.— Brunswick has been furnished with two sensations to day, the collapse of tha Evening Post and a street fight between Judge Courtland Symmes, a prominent criminal lawyer, and Dr. W. Berrien Burroughs, a wealthy citi zen and banker. Judge 8y mines and Dr. Burroughs met on Newcastle street, a prominent thor -1 ughfare, aud a discussion in regard to land deeds arose. Durmg the discussion the lie was passed, aud for the uext few minutes blows flew fast. The Uguters were sepa rated, both claiming a victory. Judge Symraas is thought to be the victor. Eldrid Simkins, owner of the Post, dis continued publishing the paper t -day, owiug to a lack of money for immediate use. Mr. Simkins is paying dollar for dol lar, and claims that he will settle all his in debtedness in full. He mado a desperate fight against the Times, but at great odds. KAIE3 ON LUMBER. The Saw-mill !. en in Correspondence with the Railroads. Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 6. —It was expected that the petition of the,Saw-mill Assooiati n of Georgia* asking better rates on lumber over all the railro ds of the state and more advantageous regulations in regard to cars, etc., would be heard by the railroad com mission to-day, but the lumbermen being in correspondence with the roads and hoping th t a satisfactory adjustment of the issue in controversy might be reached, the case was postponed till Fob. 24. Other cases were taken up, but the com missioners decided none of general interest. Tne board is now gathering information with the view of conforming to the recent act of the legislature calling upon the com mission to inquire into the interstate freight rates charged by the Georgia liues aud taeir connections, and in cases of apparent injus tice to appeal to the interstate board for correction of the same. FATB OF THE CONSPIRATORS. All but John Lancaster Sentenced to imprisonment for Life. Macon, Ga., Jan. 6.— The trial of the Dodge county conspiracy case was brought to a close to-day, when the five condemned men were brought into the federal court room and sentenced by Judge Emory Speer. Luther A. Hall, Charles Clements and Wriglit Lancaster, who were con vie-ed of conspiracy and murder and recommended to mercy, were sentenced to life imprison ment in the Columbus (O.) penitentiary. Louis Knight, convicted < f conspiracy only, was also given a life tenn in tne same pr.son. John K. Lancaster was let off with a six years’ terms. The counsel for the defend ants gave notice of a motion for anew ti ial, and also entered a motion in arrest of judg ment. CUTICURA REMEDIES. An Awful Sore Limb Flesh a Mass of Disease. Condition Hope less. Cared by the Cuticura Remedies. For three years I was almost crippled with an awful sore leg from my knee down to my ankle; the skin was entirely gone, and the rfesh was one mass of disease. Some physicians pro nounced it incurable. It had diminished about one-third the size of the other, and 1 was in a hopeless condition. After trying all kinds of remedies and spending hundreds of dollars, from whlco 1 got no relief whatever, I was per suaded to try your Cuticura Kkmxdiks, and the result was as follows: After three days I no ticed a decided change for the bett r, and at the end of two months I was completely cured. My flesh was purified, and the boue <which bad been exposed for over a year) got sound. The flesh began to grow, and to-day, and tor nearly two years, my leg is as w. 11 as ever it was. Bound in every respect, and not a sign of dis ease to be seen. Kev. S. G. AHERN, Dubois, Dodge Cos., Ga. Bad Eczema Cured The Cuticura Ktmkdies wrought a wonder fulcureon me.
