MRS. CASSIE L. CHADWICK
CHADWICK SERVANTS
GO HUNGRY.
From the New York World.
Cleveland. 0., Dec. 14. —“Jusquiau
fin." There is a world of pathos in
this remark, made by Mrs. Chadwick's
French maid, who for weeks has been
practically a prisoner in the big,
gloomy mansion at the corner of Eu
clid avenue and Genesee street. That
is the way she expressed it, and she
meant that, despite all the accusations
against her mistress, despite all the
hardships and deprivations of her ex
istence for the past weeks—sometimes
she did not have enough food to eat
—she will be faithful to the last.
Few people know it, but while Mrs.
Chadwick has been living in luxury
In the most fashionable New York ho
tels, her French maid, the Swedish
cook and the old man in charge of
the barn, have been practically pen
niless and at times close upon starva
tion. Indeed, had it not been for the
presence of Keeper Porter placed there
to guard the claim of the Elvria Bank,
it is not at all certain that they would
not have been obliged to make an ap
peal for help.
Receiver Ik to Aid Them.
As it is. so desperate is their plight
that Receiver Nathan Loeser, who to
day was placed in absolute possession
of the properity, will to-morrow per
sonally advance some money. And as
the French maid says, “They will be
faithful to the last.”
For the first time in a* month there
was light throughout the Chadwick
house this evening. It was a welcome
beacon to the mistress who, loved by
her domestics, was confined in a cell
four miles away. The gloom was mo
mentarily dispelled shortly after 5
o'clock when Freda, the nurse, arriv
ed at the Chadwick door in a carriage.
She was accompanied by a newspaper
reporter, who had travelled with Mrs.
Chadwick from New York for Freda
was left to shift for herself when her
mistress was locked In a prison call
and she was unable to find her way
home. The girl had scarcely enough
money to pay for the carriage. Be
fore she alighted from the carriage she

was locked in the arms of the weeping
cook, who kissed her repeatedly.
"Oh. I am glad you came, Freda,
dear,” was the happy exclamation, as
the girl kissed Freda on the cheek
repeatedly. Then they embraced and
both wept.
A solemn spectator to the scene was
Tom Porter. Keeper Porter looked
on, but said nothing. He conducted
Freda into the kitchen and after sooth- ■
ing her grief asked after her mistress.
Freda Just left Mrs. Chadwick at the
jail, and she again burst into tears as
she thought of the cheerful welcome
that awaited her at her own home.
Xo Visitor* Conte to House.
There was a constant stream of vis
itors at the house who claimed Mrs.
Chadwick as their dearest friend less
than six weeks ago. Their renewed pro
testations of friendship were not so
ardent as Mrs. Chadwick declared they
would be while en route. She said not
only would her social friends stand by
her. but that she rejected all offers
of financial aid from them.
The World correspondent was to-day
permitted to make an inspection of
the Interior of the Chadwick house.
This was the first time that any news
paper man had been permitted beyond
the little .reception room at the right of
the entrance. . $
Much has been said and written of
the splendor to be seen on every hand.
Much of this has 'been exaggerated,
and yet there is a deal of truth In it
all. Iri Reynolds, in his testimony the
other day, said that when he last In
spected the house x low estimate of its
value would be $200,000. Despite a lot
of trash, depsite the gaud and glitter
of gilt and gold, and a lot of stuff
that could easily be classed as auc
tion or department store purchases, it
can be said that if any one could pur
chase the contents of the house as it
stands for $25,000, he would get a bar
gain.
Iron and Dlminr Side by Side.
It is difficult to imagine that one per
son purchased the conglomerate hodge
podge of stuff to be found in the va
rious rooms of the Chadwick house. An
ivory carving worth hundreds of dol
lars is surrounded by a lot of cheap
German bisque figures that could prob
ably be purchased for 25 cents apiece.
This one instance will give a good idea
of what is found at every turn, and
yet there are some superb ornaments
that any one would be glad to own.
For instance, the first thing that
strikes the eye on entering the front
door is a beautiful old mahogany
grandfathers' clock that is worth at
the very least SSOO. Mrs. Chadwick's
taste seems to run to clocks, for there
are eight or nine of them scattered
throughout the house of various and
curiouß designs running from the
grandfather's clock to a wonderfully
carved cuckoo clock. Then there is
one that looks as if it might be
made of gold. It represents a loco
motive engine, and has an expensive
barometer attached to it. This is un
doubtedly of considerable value, and is
kept underneath a glass case.
In the little room on the left of the
entrance are three oil paintings in mas
stve gold frames, which an expert to
day said were easily worth SSOO each.
In fact the walls of every room in the
house were crowded with pictures, but
It must be admitted that some of them
are of doubtful value.
Pipe Orann Lust ffH.OOO,
In this room there is also a high
grade piano, with a self-playing at
tachment, and here also Is the famous
pipe organ for which Mrs. Chadwick
is said to have paid SB,OOO. One of the
curious things in this room is a crys
tal chair, which In its day must have
been a gaudy and dazzling bit of fur
niture, but now it is old and dilapi
dated and falling apart.
In the center of the room on a solid
onyx pedestal is one of the beauties of
the house. This is a massive piece of
Ivory carving more than two feet in
length and standing a foot and a half
high. It represents a Spanish bull
tight and there is not a single detail
of the entire performance omitted.
Carved in the beautiful white of this
solid block of pure ivory with what
was undoubtedly a master hand,'can be
seen the bull In full charge, a matador,
a toreador, the great amphitheater till
ed with thousands of spectators. Just
what this little conceit cost Mrs.
Chadwick Is not known, but the same
expert declared that she must have
puld several thousand dollars for It.
There are other Ivory carvings, each
one supported by a solid onyx pedestal,
each worth at least SSOO, and the small
wl of ths Ivory carvings could not have
cost less than S2OO.

move about.' The bed is a handsome
one and seems to be of solid brass.
There are two pictures on the wall of
doubtful taste. One is an immense
marine showing a nude woman in the
grasp of a man -who is presumably
saving her from shipwreck. The oth
er is a small colored print that may be
seen by the hundreds in stores all
over New York city. It represents a
woman with her clothing raised in or
der that she may fix her garter. Near
by sits a beggar with a sign hung
around his neck reading: "I am
blind!” The beggar’s face is distorted
into a broad grin and he is staring
with all his might at the shapely limb
exposed to view.
Out in the barn is another pathetic
sight. It is in charge of an old man,
ragged and unkempt. There Is an
equally forlern cow and an antiquated
horse. Neither one of the three looks
to be overfed. Right next to them,
however, is a Panhard automobile for
which Mrs. Chadwick paid SB,OOO and
in which she and Dr. Chadwick tour
ed Europe. Alongside of this machine
stands an electric runabout, which
probably cost originally SI,BOO.
AH Goods Will Be Sold.
Now that all these things are in the
hands of the government receiver, it is
likely that they will be insured, and
when all the affaft-s of Mrs. Chadwick
are straightened out they will be Bold
and a good price received.
Receiver Loeser has discovered that
there are a large number of packing
cases held, by the customs authorities
here for unpaid duties. It is possible
that he will pay the duties on them
and have them released.
Emil Hoover appeared at the Chad

; Office of CALDWELL COMMISSION CO.
CHICAGO, ILL, Jan. 21,1890.
MR. A. B. GIRARDEAU,
Savannah, Ga.
Dear Sir—My son, a man of thirty years, was
attacked with La Grippe, and believing it to be of
malarial origin, took your Johnson’s Tonic as direct
ed for Chills and fever. The result was he escaped
the fever which follows the severe aching, and was
able to be at work the second day. I was taken with
the disease. Every bone in me began to ache, and
my suffering was great. ! was compelled to go home
and to bed. I fully expected to be there a week.
Mv son told me of his experience, and urged me to
take Johnson’s Chill and Fever Tonic. 1 did so—
took it with regularity all through the night—and was
agreeably surprised to see that no Fever came. I
continued until I had taken eight doses—felt weak
and exhausted, but no fever, and aching disappeared.
Next morning I had a good appetite for my breakfast,
and felt quite well, and went to my business as well
as 1 ever was. Since then I have tried it with like
results on two other cases. Yours truly,
W. W. CALDWELL,
President and Manager.

Prices are about the same. Any merchant can have the best. Some firms are often deceived In what
they buy. They Intend, doubtless, to have the best. The surest way to get the best ts to placs your or
