8 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 A Tonic For All Everybody needs a tonic now, No man, nor his wife, nor his child, may expect ro bust health until they have cleansed their blood, strength, ened and invigorated their systems, making them pass from hot weather to cold without headaches, back aches, leg aches, stomach aches.

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. Sirs.

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 wick house yesterday and took away several of his school books and some fountain pens and some pencils, re minders of his schoolboy days. He also wanted to take away some of his boy ish suits of clothes, but the stern hand of the law prevented him. Vidnlln Items. Yidalla, Ga„ Dec. 16.—Yldalia has three enterprises nearing completion.

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. The Best Thing to Use for Fever and the Only Thing to Use for LA GRIPPE WHAT MERCHANTS NEED. All merohanta. biff or little, need stationery.
