STORY OF THE GOWER-NORDICA ROMANCE AND ITS SAD END. Mme. Xordlrn Woe a Maine Girl Known ne M1m Lilian Norton—Mr. Gower Wee Aleo from Maine—Sketch of Die Career. Ilia Phcuomeital Success In Telephony. Lilian Norton, the famous ringer, granddaughter of Campmeeting John Allen, wan bom in Farmington, Me. Her father, Edwin Norton, was a pros perous fanner in that town. Both her father's and mother's families were ex cellent singers. Lilian attended the Conservatory of Music in Boston to re ceive a musical education. The excel lence of her voice introduced her into the concerts of Gilmore, where she took a prominent part. Thus a way was opened for her to visit Europe and a more complete musical education. Accompanied by her mother Bhe went to Italy, and was placed under the dis- pipline of the most accomplished musical teachers of Europe. Having finished her coarse of study and become notable for her power of song, she received an invitation with liberal salary to sing in the Royal opera at St. Petersburg. She went with her mother to Russia. The manager of the Grand opera of Paris was so pleased with her singing that he gave her an invitation to become the prirna donna of the highest seat of song, and by liberal pecuniary rewards sought to obtain her release from her St. Petersburg engagement, but the Rnsrinns preferred her voice to the money offered. After Bhe had completed her engagement in tho north, sho ac cepted the overtures made her in Paris and made an engagement to sing in the Grand opera. THE MARRIAGE. Daring her residence in Italy her name was changed to Lilia Nordica to snit the Italian style of pronoancintion. It was dnring her appearance as the great American ringer in the Grand opera that she becomo acquainted with her second cousin, Frederick Allen Gower, grandnephew of Campmeeting John Allen. Ho said: “It was not a coso of love at first sight, for it was full seven minutes before I became enchanted with tho lovely singer.” The history of this young man is fully' as romantic as is tho success of Mme. Nordica. Ho was the son of the Rev. H. B. Gower, a Baptist clergyman, who died in Farmington, Mo., leaving a widow and three sons, tho eldest 10 and tho youngest 6 years old. As the fam ily were left In destitute circumstances, Frederick, tho second son, was kindly received and freely supported for a year at tho Abbott family school. Ho had given proof of his activity as an infant by leaping from his nnrse's arms, before ho was a month old, through an open window without breaking his neck. As a scholar he was more noted for vivacity than qniet study. After a year’s sojonrn at the family school Frederick and his brothers, by the energy and ability of their mother, were gathered into a family home in Providence, R. I. The two elder broth ers were fitted by their mother to enter Brown university, and wero supported by her at collcgo till thoy graduated. George, the eldest brother, became a lawyer, and has served by repeated elec tions as clerk of tho Rhode Island assem bly. • Frederick entered upon the profession of journalism, and became city editor of The Providence Journal. He wrote to Professor Bell, the inventor of the tele phone, to deliver a lecture at Providence on the now invention. By invitation young Gower went to Boston to assist Bell in tho preparation of his lecture. MR. GOWER'S SUCCESS. AND END. His active and ingenious intellect be came intensely interested in the new in vention. He contrived to simplify the machinery and to increaso tho intensity of the magnetic power, nring one instead of - two batteries, and introducing cir cular instead of horseshoe magnets, with other devices now used in tho Gower- Bell telephone. Having obtained patents and estab lished the Bell Telephone company, Gower went to France and formed a telephone company there, of which he was president, with a salary of <35,000. He also obtained patents in Germany and England. In England a company was formed, bnt the English govern- ment took the telephone, as they had the telegraph, aa a part of their postoffice ser vice, purchasing of the company a mill ion dollars' worth of telephones for their “The Awakening of the South." Disc listing the Industrial condition of tbe country, the New York Tri bune touthfutly states that “the'great fact of the present Industrial era la tbe awakeulog of the South." And, continuing, it says: “Forforty years before tbe war,on account of slavery, that section took iio part In the man ufacturing anu mining progress of tbe country.” And for nearly twen ty years after there were no sign* of activity, but about 1385 there were Indications of a new order of things. “For more than sixty years, by a generation of slavery and a genera tion of war aDd Its stupefying memo ries, the enterprise and tbe labor of tbe South bad been paralyzed. Half tbe country stagnant and torpid, having to be laboriously lugged along by tbe reel, was a heavy burden. But when tbe vast labor force of the South, as yet unused to tbe wages obtained In tbe mines and manufac tures, began to employ therein, tbe effect was quickly felt. More than six years ago some of tbe shrewdest Northern cotton spinners bad begun to put all iheirsurplus resources into Southern mills, foreseeing that cheap labor there would presently make the production of the coarser grades of goods at the North comparatively unprofitable, as early as 1883 iron and coal mining and Iron manufuc turlng In Virginia, West Virginia, Alabama and Teunessee began enlist large capital and to challenge attention. More recently wool man ufaetures have sprung up, and others of countless variety. Tbe effect has been to bring the cheap labor of the South Into direct competition with tbe more Intelligent and better paid labor of the North, sud now the re suits are felt on »large scale, and by thousands of workers and employers. Many hundred Northern works are closed or waiting uow because the owners have not yet learned on what terms to divide with the South tbe work to he done. The Industrial interests of the whole country, says the Tribune,are In atiansition period, and the indca- triea that can be operated by the un skilled labor of tbe South must in evilably settle there. This transition Is unavoidably one of sacrifice to many Northern manufacturers who •ee their business drifting from them; but the Tribune adds: “Those who stupidly sit on tbelr antiquated and idle machinery, refusing to take tbe etepa to extend and Improve their ntanufacture, will fall behind In the race irretrievably. But the transi tion Is advancing rapidly. . In hun dreds of works at once the re-organl- zation and reconstruction needful for long strides In Industrial progress are going on.” In this transition, which the Tribune admits will center alt the coarser manufactures of cot- son, wool, IroD, etc., in tbe South, the consolation which It offers to tbe manufacturers of the North Is that they will be forced into making fine goods and using morn skilled labor, and In the end reap larger profits than out of the lower grade of goods now produced. Very true; but the Tribune omite to say that the South will rapidly develop the manufac ture of fine goods and have jnst as great advantages then as it now hat In the production of tbe coarser goods.

After a brief acquaintance these two American celebrities were united tn marriage, and Mme. Nordica was re leased from her engagement at the Grand opera. She came with her hus band to America. Their married life was not a happy one. For sufficient cause Mme. Nordica toed for a separate maintenance, bnt never for a divorce. While the suit was In progress he left suddenly for Paris, where he had been deeply engaged study ing out an invention to employ magnet ism in the control of balloons. This he considered the greatest invention of tbe age, both for military and commercial purposes. To test the efficiency of some of his plans he undertook in a balloon, alone, to croes the Straits of Dover.
