The Fate Of a Mistress and SON
of Napoleon.

The beautiful but heartless Countess
Kielmansegge, who in 1872 was the mis-
tress of Napoleon the First, and who
died some time since at an advanced age,
has left manuscript volume of reminis-
eenees, in which she Acknowledges that
the famous Ernst Graf, who committed
suicide three years ago, at Dresden, on
account Of his extreme poverty, was the
son whom she bore to the great Emper-
or, In 1913. She excuses her refusal to
acknowledge Graf as her son on the pre-
text that she made vow in 1915, never
to admit that she had haison with Ma
pOleou the First. Ernst Graf bore the
most striking resemblance to his illustri-
Gus father. In 1853 he went to Paris,
and tried to attract the attention Of
Louis Napoleon, but was unable to OBJ
tain anything at his hands. At Mann
helm, however, he had an interview with
the old Grand Duchess Stephanie, nee
Mile de Beanhsrnais, who was believed
to have had haison with Napoleon, in
1S41, and she made him liberal pres
ent. His applications to the French
ambassador at Dresden, though sup
ported by very strong eircumstautiai
evidence that he was the natural son
of Napoleon the First, remained unsue-

sePtIcemIa.

Interesting experiments have lately
been made in France, relative to the ar
ti6eial production in animals of disease
analogous to carbunele, complaint well
known among cattle and called septice-
mia, but distinguished by well marked
characters. Blood from the heart Of a
perfectly healthy OK was drawn into a
bottle, and after remaining until very
fetid, few drops were injected into the
thickness Of the abdominal wall of a
Guinea pig. Others were treated in a
similar way, and all died in from four
teen to thirty six hours From the
heart of one Of these animals, two drops
of blood were taken Immediately after
death aud injected into the body Of an
other Guinea pig, which died in about
twenty-five hours, and the same result
followed in many other instances and in
successive stages. This form Of disease
or poisoning, thus developed from the
injection of putrid blood in the septiee-
mia in question, is readily distinguished
from earbunele by various characters.
Thus the corpuscles Of blood in septiee-
mia are unchanged and equally distrib-
uted in the serum, instead of being de-
formed and run together, as in caFbun-
Gle. The spleen retains it's normal
condition, instead of being greatly in
creased in weight. The dried blood Of
an animal affected with septicemia does
not produce any injurious effect when
introduced into the circulation, as it does
with earbunele Finally, malignant pus-
tule is developed in an animal treated
with the earbuncle blood, this not being
the case in the other disease.

Theatrical Managers.

A theatrical manager ought to be a
very smart man. Tom Taylor, in his
recent essay, "Some Thoughts on the
English Stage" says
He ought to be able to second the
directions Of the author, or to replace
him, not only in guiding the business of
the stage, but in seeing that dialogue is
correctly given, that errors of emphasis,
faults Of pronunciation, violations of
manners and proprieties are checked
and set right; in a word, that the au
thor work is done justice to by the ac
tors. Rehearsals at present are, as rule,
slovenly and careless, insufficient in at
tention to the necessary business of the
play, while always cruelty sswasteful Of
time, harrassing and wearing to good
and attentive actors, though laxly indif-
ferent to the faults and blunders of bad
ones. In word, in this as in other
matters of theatrical government, there
is evidence of want Of respect alike for
the actors craft and the public require
ments. 1t is evident that the manager
has little sense of any but very low
kind of taste to be satisfied, or OF any
public opinion to be faced which is like
ly to be either exacting or outspoken. |
place the want Of such manager as |
have shadowed forth in the very front Of
the conditions of theatrical,improvement.
Many will think my hope that the want
may be supplied very visionary one. !"

Protection of Infants I'm
France.

Infants in France are not generally
nursed by their own mothers, but are
farmed out to persons who make it a busi-
ness to collect young children aud bring
them up by hand. This practice, it is
asserted, results in great loss Of life
among the children and the deterioration
of the constitution of those who survive.
Hence, there has been formed in Paris
society for the protection Of infants,
the object of which is to encourage
mothers to nurse their own infants. At
the meeting of this society in Paris, re-
Gently, the President read paper on
" Nurses aud Nursing" proving from
history that the general neglect of moth
ers in this important item of their of
spring had invariably marked an epoch
of general deeadenee in public morality.
The society awards prizes for the most
careful country nurse and for the health
lest infant. Thus, a medal and sixty
dollars were awarded to two nurses who
had respectively reared twenty-seven and
eighteen infants The society has also
caused an important change in the law
of the registration of births. Hereto
fore the father was compelled to pre-
sent the child within two days of Its
birth before the Mayor of the district.
Now the father is allowed to give notice
of the birth of the child. after which no.
tice doctor pays domieihary visit,
and registers the necessary details with
out exposing the life of the newborn
child.

Woman suffrage.


The ChicGg0aH, a woman's organ,
published in the City of Easy Divorce,
thus frankly explains what the woman
suffrage movement means
The genius of the so-ealled woman S
movement is lot generally eompre-
hended, l mean Womans complete
enfranehisement and emancipation frem
the control of her masculine master. 1t
means the disseverance of her present
dependent relation to man and the estab-
lishment of her rights as a separate and
independent individual being, laden with
the privileges and responsibilities that
inhere in her as the mother of immortal
beings. 1t means the recognition Of
her supreme right to the direction and
control of affairs relating to her affee-
tiOnal and sexual nature that she will
cease to be the mere instrument Of man 5
pleasure and the medium of transmitting
his name to posterity. 1t means the
abolishment Of numerous usages and
fashions that foster and feed mems pas
siOns until they have control Of its be-
ing, requiring the continuous sacrifice
of woman on the altar of lust. 1t
means that the selection of companions
in the most sacred relations of the sexes
shall not be the exclusive prerogative Of
man-if, indeed, as physiological laws
and comparison would seem to indicate,
the first right to WOO be not surrendered
to woman. 1t means the acknowledge
ment of woman's sovereignty in the
parental realm, and that in all cases of
difference in matters of mutual interest
the maternal authority shall be first and
dominant.

New System Of TeIegraPhiDg

The Pdtrie Of Paris, Of the 18th ult.,
contains the following communication :
This morning the Emperor Napoleon
III. consented, in the Tuileries, to exam
inc the new system of telegraphy invent
ed by the late Mr.. ROnelh, witnessing
some practical and complete experiments.
His Majesty declared himself satisfied on
every point with the process and invited
the operator to return at noon, in order
that the Empress might be present. The
advantages consist in the perfect and au-
thentic exactness of the messages trans
mitted, and the importance of which is
too apparent to require comment. Fur
thermore, this system allows the trans
mission of three messages in the same
space of time that is occupied by one in
the ordinary manner in use at present.
His Majesty considers the advantages
of this new system 50 important that he
authorized Count de Nougy, general di-
rector OF telegraphs, to offer the operator
every facility necessary to render the use
of his apparatus popular.

The Most Powerful Telescope

The Chicago Equatorial Telescope
is the subject of an interesting letter
written by Prof Barnard, of Columbia
College, who says that it was made to
order for the University of Mississippi,
and was to have been erected in a mag
niicent observatory already built and
now standing at Oxford, Miss The war,
by cutting off all communication be-
tween the North aLi the South, threw
the instrument on the hands of the ma
ker who disposed Of it to the Dearborn
University Of Chicago. This great equa-
tOrial is the largest in actual existence,
and in comparison with the Harvard
equatorial has light of three to two.
The clear Illuminating aperture has a
diameter Of eighteen and half inches,
while that of Harvard measures fifteen.
The whole diameter of the Chicago OBJ.
iective mounting included is twenty
inches, The defining power of this glass
is asserted to be unrivaled, as has been
proved by the discovery it enabled its
constructor, Mr.. Clark, to make of the
companion of Sirius, star which was
confidently believed to exist, but which
had eluded the refractors of Cambridge
and Pultoya (of exactly the same capae-

HydrOgeniuml.


1t has been known for some time to
chemists, that wheu heated palladium IS
inserted into an atmosphere of Hydro
gen, from eight to nine hundred times It's
bulk Of the gas is absorbed, or slowed
away in the pores Of the metal. This
phenomenon was formerly called aeeIu-
sion, and was supposed to show merely
strong absOrptiye tendency of the metal
for the gas, The recent discoveries Of
Prof. Graham, of London show, howev-
er, that in all probability the union Is
to be regarded as a true alloy Of one
substance with the other, and that the
hydrogen is what &c has already been
suspected to be, metal in its chemical
relations. The density Of the palladium
when combined with the hydrogen is
reduced very considerable, and the mean
density of the hydrogen, which, as
metal, has now been called hydrogen
ium, is nearly two. Its tenaeity and
electrical eOnductibility are less than
those of palladium but its conducting
power, equal nearly to six, is neverthe-
less considerable, which Is thus an addi-
tional proof of its metallic nature The
hydrogenium is more magnetic than pal
ladium, and belongs, according to Prof.
Graham, to the same group Of metallic
substances as iron, zinc, cobalt, eromium
and manganese. It is Furthermore sug-
gested that oxygen equally with hydro
gen is only the volatized condition Of
metal, and that water is a true alloy Of
the two metals in definite proportion.
1t may therefore yet be possible to see
water reduced to a solid state otherwise
than by becoming frozen.

RoTHsCHILD.


A story is told, highly creditable to
the great banker, Baron james Roth
sehild. The son of celebrated actress
of the Comedie Franeaise, NJ. Paul
<, inherited from his mother a
tolerably round sum-seven or eight
hundred thousands francs. x had
many friends, and made more, and there
was no lack of advice as to how to
turn his money to account. They pro
posed to put him at the head Of a great
enterprise, and Paul yielded to the
temptation. 1t is 50 nice TO be called
" Monsieur the Director; my dear
Director"
There are enough more who would
have done the same in his place, for
every man has his ambition.
But unfortunately the affair was. not
withstanding the talent engaged in it,
very badly managed, and nearly the
whole fortune OF the young director
was swallowed up.
Baron james Rothsehild was not
ignorant of this event. lie pitied Paul,
and one day meeting him on Change,
drew him aside and said kindly:
" Paul, my little friend, tel me how
it is that 50 young a man can be sad"
Sad yes indeed, sir, and without
cause"
+" Well, come and see me Tomorrow at
my bureau. Perhaps we shall find
cure"
Paul did not fail to be there. And
Baron James R0thsehild presenting him
to the chef dR dirisiOR Of his immense
banking establishment, gave orders that
until further orders NJ. x should
occupy a certain desirable position
which embraced great advantages. In
less than two years, Paul, who has brains
enough, had regained his fortune,
fact of which the Baron was not ignor-
ant, and meeting him one day in the
bureau he said brusquely, but good
naturedly:.
Clear out with you, and make room
for others you've no business here any
longer. And now as you are on horse
back again, mind and keep your seal" /"
Paul kept his word, and since his re-
turn to fortune he has remained deaf to
all the inducements of every one to
engage in this or that enterprise.
One day he was overheard saying, lately
in a group, alluding to the last words
addressed to him by the illustrious
banker:
. Well, | think that the first professor
of equation in the world is Baron

What the ChInese DO Ear - Cry
Babies"


The San francisco BuIze6n Of Janu-
airy 18th, says
A murder was perpetrated in this city
last night, which illustrates In a terrible
manner the Chinese practice of putting
female children to death when the par
ents become tired Of providing for them.
or are exasperated by their misconduct.
About four o'clock this morning, police
otheer Kelly was standing on Dupont
street, near Sacramento. when he OBJ
served Cf salman hurryiug along the
streets with sack on his shoulders.
Thinking he had committed some theft,
the otheer stopped him and asked him
what the sack contained The man re-
piled that it was filed with clothes.
Officer Kelly felt Of it, and said s. This
Is not a sack of clothes. Put It down. -
Upon this the fellow dropped the sack
on the sidewalk and started to run, but
the officer drew his pistol and ordered
him to stop or he would shoot The
man then slapped, and Kelly, on open
ing the sack, found the dead body Of a
female child Of apparently about one
year old On questioning the Chinaman
he was told that the parents of the dead
child lived on Sacramento street, and
that, having killed her little while be-
fore, they gave him the body to conceal.
Kelly took him to the house and found
the parents When asked about the
child and the reason for killing her,
they said she cried too much, they
couldn't sleep, and had purposely
smothered her in the bed-elothes. Kelly
thereupon took them into custody also,
and with them four women and four
men, inmates Of the house where the
murder was committed.
