SUICIDE OF RocHEFonr's DAUGHTER
She was not only lovely, but abe wes Just IS,
Beautiful hazel eyes, flashing fire; chestnut
hair, abundant as Absalom's; the bosom OF
Venus; complexion white as ,alabaster-zne

have made any man happy. Instead of that,
| abe went to Hotel des Ardennes, Rue Vert Boiz,
hard by the Jewish Synagogue, just off the

called the hive of the great city, for in that
| district every floor is q mandatory, and
all the by-stTeets teem with the busy bees.
I say abe went to Hotel des Ardenncs. asked
for chamber for week, paid the
weeks rent in advance, brought in a brazier

| dressed On the bed to die to die BY her
OWN hand. Her mother was 80 poor they had
gone 50 often without meals; they could not seq
how house-rent WAS to be paid, how winter
clothes we're to be bought. She died by her OWL
hand, and she was only IS! They had been
richer once she had never known what priya-
ton, and poverty we're, till La Commune fell !;

mlstresses he had, and how much money he
nightly lost st cards, and how much gold his
parasites drew from him,-so that when the
year ended, he had little left but debts and
children. A child here, aud a child there, to
struggle with hunger, to wrestle with poverty,
to make e1hausting efforts to keep footing in
life. Such is HERR Rochefort's history,-for

Revolution; not one Of the leaders were married
men all of them led irregular lives, with no
children but bastards, and, for wives,

before they introduced it in the State. The
great Revolutionary geniuses, Voltaire and Rous-
seau, themselves never we're married, and the
latter tossed all his children to the Founding

Rochefort has treated his family with unusual
gold, his father died in garret in one Of the
suburbs Of Paris, almost OF starvation. His SIS
