MADAME JEROME BONArARrE

In SoriJHer's for May there is an inter-
estlng account of "The Baltimore Bona
parties" by L. l.. Didier, accompanied by
striking portraits of jerome and Madame
Bonaparte, their son and grandson. We
quote as follows:
Madame Bonaparte is still living In
| Baltimore, at the age of ninety years.
| She says she has no intention of diving
| until she is a hundred. She has been to
Europe sixteen times, and contcmplates
| another trip this summer. This old lady
has more vivacity and certainly more in
| telllgcnce than many of the leading wo-
men of fashion of the present day. She
expresses her opinion upon all sub
jccts with great freedom and
sometimes with bitterness. She
has little or no confidence in men, and a
very poor opinion of women: the young
ladies OF the present day, she says, all
have the "h0mo mania All sentiment
she thinks weakness. She processes
that her ambition has always bcen-not
| the throne, bit near the throne. MIR. Pat
tcrsOn, her father, died in 1896, at an adj
Nanced age, In possession OF large tor
tune. In his will, which is one Of the
most remarkable documents that has ever
been deposited in the Orphans Court of
Baltimore, he says: THE conduct of nv
daughter. Betscy, has, through life, been
so disobedlent that In no instance has She
ever consulted my opinion or
feelings; indeed, she has caused
me more anxiety and trouble than
all my other children put together: her

means the marriage of his daughter TO
jerome Bonaparte. The old gentleman
ieit her, out OF his great wealth, only
three or four small houses and the wines
in his cellar-worth in all about ten thou
sand dollars.
Madame Bonaparte is very rich: She
mas made her money by successful SpcclI-
latlonS and by her lifelong habit of saw

Some Georgia Lawyers Fees

Yesterday, in conversation, some one
remarked that Gen. Toombs never
crosses a court house door for less than
$1,000, when Judge Lochranc replied
that there was nothing strange about
that. IL wouldn't take any case for Il
smaller tee than $4,000 This caused
the crowd to discuss legal fees, and it
was found that several large fees had
been paid Atlanta lawyers since the war.
Mr.. Hill in the celebrated Mctcalf case.
received 100000 Tee. Judge Lochranc
fee of $4,000 in the Brunswick and Al
bany case. Mr.. Hill received fee Of
$4,000 for his management of kimball's
case. Judge Lochranc received $1,000
as a fee from Mrs. kimball in the Kim
ball house case.
