JENNY LIND's REBUKE OF STUPID OLD
DUKE-The following excellent story is told
OF one of Queen Victoras unces The late
Duke of Cambridge-the dinner eating duke
was a constant and fragrant offender, in his
way. He had very little taste for music, and
had box at the opera simply because 1t was
the fashion great man was he for presld
ing at public dinners, at which he would eat as
much as five and drink as much as ten ordina-
ry people. Leaving the table, full of beef and
flushed, but scarcely furried, by an enormous
quantity Of wine, this royal duke, uncle to
Queen Victoria, would drive to the opera,
probably arriving during the last scene, and,
wholly regardless of the performers, would
call out to his friends across the house, "Ah,
Devonshire, glad TO see you" or, "Cardignan,
| shall breakfast with you tomorrow" and so
on. Being "royal highness," he was actual
ly tolerated. One night, when Jenny Lind
was performing the role of Amina, in "La
Somnambula," " the old portly duke went on in
this manner. Disturbed by his talk, the vo-
callst suddenly paused, and the queen, who
was present, stretched a little out of her
box to ascertain the cause. Jenny Lind
simply looked at the dukes box, and the
Queen, turning round, followed her look and
saw the eulprit, who was speaking loudly to
some person i'll the neighboring box. The
eyes OF all the audience were directed at once
to the Duke of Cambridge, who certainly then
became fully aware that he was Spotted by
several hundred persons. He continued talk
ing, however, as if to brave it. A gentleman
III the pit jumped up on his seat, and in loud
voice and an earnest manner cried out, "Who
disturbs the audience Who but that old
man, with star upon his breast? Do we
pay him forty thousand pounds year to an.
noy the public in the Opera House? Three
groanS for the Duke of Cambridgel" The
call was unanimously complied with, every
eye being fixed OH the portly prince, and, at
last, he sneaked out of his box, followed by
his wife and daughter, and not until then did
Jenny Lind resume her singing. 1t was said
that the Queen was greatly annoyed with her
uncles rudeness, and told him so. 1t is Ger.
tain that, ever after, he avoided going to the
opera, and behaved very well when compelled
TO attend.

TERRIBLE TRAGEDY IN MIssIssIPPI.-The
Nicksburg Mississippi Sun, of May 9th, gives
the following particulars of a terrible tragedy
enacted on the previous Friday at the resi-
dence Of Mr. U. &. Flowers of that county =
"A few years ago, MIR. Lafayette Lee was
married TO young lady Of this county, Miss
Hicks, and remained at the residence of his

ly saw enough TO convince himself that Lee
treated his wife unkindly, and demonstrated
with him-and urged him to make some exer-
ton 10 support his family, protlrring to assist
him in any audable effort
On Thursday Last Mrs. Lee expressed her
anxiety to see her mother, and wished to visit
her home if she could obtain conveyance. Mr..
Flowers informed her that his carriage was at
her service for that purpose whenever she

In a few moments an expression of hor

Lee was suddenly taken i'll, turned and asked
him what was the matter. The answer given
was that nothing was the matter with him.
He resumed Ills play, when the report OF a pis-

The wound inflicted upon Mrs. Lee was of

n HEROIC SIsTERs.-There dwet in the vii
lage of Montague, at the period of the French
revolution, two girls, named Felicite and The
Ophile Fernig. Both possessed beauty of a
sweet and attractive kind, both were modest
reserved, and apparently timd. The young
0st was thirteen years OF age when the nightly
attacks of the Austrians demanded an mme.
diate and strong resistance. Soldiers being
wanted, the sisters put on their brothers
clothes, armed themselves, and charged the
pundering parties in front of the National
Guards. Notwithstanding every effort to dis
guise themselves efectually, General Beur-
nonville discovered them, marked their in
trepid conduct, and presented them to General
Dumouriez, who attached them, together with
their father and brother, to his staff Not
only pure, but free from suspicion, they were
the admiration Of the whole army. They dis.
tingushed themselves in every action previous
to April 5, 1898. In an engagement near
brussels, they rushed into the midst Of the en-.
emy, when general officer called to them to
surrender lhe reply was a ball from the pistol
of the younger, which laid him dead at her feet

back in safety. The same sister M the bnttle

midable of the grenadiers. His height ON fno,
