A TOUCHING PICTURE OF VANDER
BILT.
HU Alleged Grief Over Ills Levy on Grant's
Effects—A Millionaire on
Hard Times.
New York Journal.
Mr. Vanderbilt was deeply touched by
the distress of General Grant. He was
unable to attend to business all day long,
and sat in his study poring over a well
worn map of the Lake Shore Railroad. In
that position a Journal reporter found him.
The aged philantropist reached for a gilt
edged pocket handkerchief when the name
of General Grant was mentioned.
“It’s the saddest thing that has ever come
across my unusually sad experience,” said
he, “to think that all them trinkets from
the President of Siam, and the horses from
Gumarabac, and the sword from the shah of
Prussia, all have got to be sold.”
“Why do you allow it, Mr. Vanderbilt ?”
“My dear boy, this time last year I would
not have allowed this sacrifice, but times are
not what they used to be. To use a coarse
expression, I’m hard up. M illie K. was
bad enough, but when Cornell went down
on the street that settled their poor old
father. And all the time I thought Cornell
was at the Youug Men’s Christian Associa
tion.”
The old gentleman looked around at the
bare walls which cost SIOO,OOO to kalsomine
and then at the bare pictures and statuary
which cost as much more. He tipped gently
back in a SIOO,OOO chair and allowed his
feelings to have full play in a handkerchief
which cost SIOO,OOO a dozen.
“It unmans me to think that the savior of
our country should be obliged to part with
his war relics at a discount. But I need the
money. All the servants in the house have
struck lor their wages and I had to wash the
windows myself this morning. Then the
bath tub froze up in that cold snap and I
haven't money enough to have it thawed
out.”
“William!'’ shouted a sharp voice, “go
right out and shovel in that coal on the side
walk.”
“You hear,” said Mr. Vanderbilt faintly.
The reporter left the magnificent ruin
alone with his sorrow.
A MYSTERIOUS CASE.
Horrible Eate of a Lady Who Visited the
World's Exposition,
New Orleans, Jan. 7.—On Monday of
last week Mrs. McChesney, aged twenty
four years, wife of George McChesney, ol
Council Bluffs, lowa, came to this city on a
visit to the Exposition with her husband
and a large party of friends. Mrs. McChes
ney arrived here somewhat ill, but not ill
enough to prevent her visiting with her
husband the Exposition grounds. While
there the party became separated, and Mrs.
McChesney was lost sight of. Her husband
and friends searched for her in vain and ad
vertised for her in vain. The police we e
called on, but they could hear nothing ol
the missing woman. Last Tuesday Mrs.
• McChesney was found in the house of Mrs.
Tenine in Carrollton, several miles from the
Exposition. She bad been ever since her
disappearance unconscious, and unable to
give any account of herself. She was brought
there, Mrs Tenine declares, by a man un
known to her. Mrs. McChesney was at once
taken to her husband’s temporary residence,
where she died of acute mania or meningi
tis. The detectives are at work trying to
find out the man who brought the unfor
tunate woman to the house where she was
found.
Some one has declared conceit worse than
consumption, and the comparison is a true
one. Many are the “conceited” who cry down
legitimate remedies, and who delude
suffering humanity, whose only salvation
Is the immediate use of Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup.
“ROUGH ON COUGHS.”

Men are often heard saying that their aspi
rations are high, but every time they cough
their noses go towards the earth, with indica
tions that they will follow them soon unless
they are w-ise enough to take Dr. Bull’s Cough
Syrup in time. >

The Emperor Louis Napoleon smoked

cigars were made specially for him in Ha

Belt of North Carolina, this being the finest
leaf grown. Blackwell’s Bull Durham
Smoking Tobacco is made from the same
leaf used in the Emperor’s cigars, is abso
