Teresa BagioIa sickIes.

This lady died at her residence in Fifth ave
nue., New York city, on Tuesday night, of con
gestlon OF the luEgs. Teresa Bagiola was born
In Florence, Italy, and was brought to this
country while an infant by her father, Luigi
Bagiola, who was at one time a fine baritone
singer, and afterwards popular m usic teacher
in New York
When scarcely fifteen years old, just blooming
into womanbood, and one of the most beautiful
and charming of her sex, she became ac-
quainted with Daniel T.. Sickles, who had left
his trade, printing, for the profession of the
law and had been elected a member Of Con-
gress. Mr.. sickles was reelected to the Thirty.
81 xth Congress, and took his wife to Washing
ton, where she became one of the reignmg
bellies OF that gay city of magnificent distances.
she was not long a resident OF che National
capital before an acquaintance with Colonel
IN an improper intimacy. General Sickles dis
covered that his bed had been dishonored, and
In February, 1853, he met Mr. Key In the str eet,
near the Capitol, and killed him.
For this hOmlciue be was arrested and, after
trlal lasting twenty days, he was acquitted,
the jury rendering verdict of justidable homI-
eide. Mis-. Sickles sought ana obtained the for
glVeness of her husband, after the most tOrtur-
thereafter.
General Sickles served in the army during the
Rebellion, and attained the rank of Major
General OF Volunteers, which he still holds. He
lost leg at the battle of Charlottesville.
Mrs Sickles was woman of such sweetness
OF disposition as TO have won the admiration of
al, and IN the seCusion of her after.lite she had
the gratitcation OF receiving hundreds of con-
doing letters from sympathiZing friends, who
refused to forget her for her msfortune's sake
Commander Samuel SVvartwOut, United
States Navy.
The death of this veteran naval officer took
place yesterday at the Naval Hospital Brook
lyn, after painful and lingering illness. The
deceased was born in New York State in 1905
and was consequently slXty-tWo years of age at
the time of his death.
He entered the naval service on the 10th dsy
of May, 1920, and in 1922 was assigned to duty
as midshlpman on the ship Hornet. The fol-
lowing four years were passed IN the same capa-
city on board the corvette Cyaue, sloop Pea
cock, and trlgate Constitution. On the 9th of
February, 1887, he was commissioned heuten.
ant in the service, and on the l4th of September
1855, was commissioned a Commander, which
rank he held ever afterwards. Although the
late Commander took no active part in the late
war, nor IN the war with Mexico, he was never
theless, accounted an abe officer. Entering the
navy, as he did, at time when there were no
steam war vessels, his profession was studied i'm
the severest possible school.
His promotion to the rank of Commander
during a time of profound peace unbroken
save by the war with Mexico, and in which the
navy took but small part, would attest his
Commander has been in command of the naval
rendezvous at New York, and in the exercise of
his duties won many friends. As one of the
representatives of time when the nation was
yet struggling in its infancy, his death will be
generally regretted, particularly when we CON
slider his faithful services to the country of
nearly half century.
