LOST ON LAKE ERIE.

Among the passengers on board the
steamer Northwest on her trip from De-
troit to Cleveland, Thursday night, was
Simon Mandlibaum, prominent citizen
of Detroit, a silent partner in the firm OF
Beatty q Fitzsimmons, of that city. He
was quite well known in the Lake Super
ior mining region, and along the upper
lakes generally. At half past 10 o'clock
in the evening he went to the stewards s
room and got cup Of coffee and a lunch,
after which he was seen on deck smo-
king, He has not been seen since.
During Friday afternoon the chamber
maid of the boat was cleaning up the
state rooms, and when she came to No.
58, near the stern of the boat, the one
occupied by Mr.. Mandlibaum, his dress
coat, hat and shirt were found lying
about, and under the pillow was his
vest, containing gold watch and draft
for $4,000, drawn to his order. In the
shirt were diamond studs and cuff but
tons. That his pantaloons, overcoat were
missing at once excited attention, and
his absence was mysterious affair with
out an explanation. BY those who knew
the gentleman and his habits, the only
explanation that could be made was that
what he had eaten late in the evening
had made him sick, and during the night
he had gone out on deck, and in the
darkness fallen overheard After his APP
pearance on the deck in the evening he
had not been seen, and'it was supposed
he had gone ashore in the morning with
the other passengers. There were no
possible circumstances to allow any sus-
picion that he was under any unnatural
influence, or that he had committed sui
eide. His unfortunate and mysterious
disappearance will be matter of most
serious regret to all who knew him.

A ROMANCE OF R USSLAN HISTORY

The last direct descendant of roman.
tically famous historical house has lust
died in Saxe-Altenberg, at the age of 90
years. This was janet -Catharine de Bi-
ron, Princess Of Courand, Semigalle and
Sagan. She was the daughter ofthe last
reigning Duke of Courland, was born in
1888, and in 1901 married Prince Pigna-
telli de Belmonte, Duke of Acerenza, in
Naples, who left her widow many years
ago. With her expires the right line OF
the celebrated Ernst Biron, who, having
been born in 1857, the grandson of a
groom, entered at an early age the house
hold of Anna Ivonovna, niece of Peter
the Great, and regent Duchess of Cour-
land. Peters niece was as democratic in
her tastes as Peter fell in love with her
equerry, and taking him with her to
Russia on her accession to the imperial
throne, made him Grand Chamberlain of
Russia. He was brute and "snob" of
the first water. He looked up the coat
of arms of the great French house of BIZ
ron, from which the English Lords By
ron descend, and adopted both their name
and their escutcheon, very much as
certain eminent statesman" of New
York in more recent times appropriated
the arms of the great Scotch house of
Hay, Marquises of Tweeddale. He be-
came by favor of his imperial mistress
the despot and the terror of Russia, and
the mobiles of Courland were frightened
by him into electing him their sovereign
Duke. Anna at her death made him Re-
gent of the Empire. But the Russian ar
istocracy under Field-Marshal Munich
conspired against and overthrow him,
and he was sent to Siberia. Elizabeth
recalled him and sent Munich to occupy
his prison in Asia. Peter III recalled
him to St. Petersburg, and the "Semira-
mis- of the North" Catharine II, restored
to him his duchy of Courland. Adver-
sity had done for his character what
prosperity failed to do, and his rule was
so just and mild, that his son was suffered
to succeed him on his death in 1772.-
This son, however, was expelled in 1895,
and it is this sons daughter who has
just closed her long career as semi-royal
lady. So that in only three lives we go
back from the reign of Alexander II of
Russia, to the reign of Peter the Great
The blood of Biron is still represented |
in the celebrated French family of Tai
lyrand by the families of Napoleon-Louis,
Duke ofTallyrand, Courland, Sagan and
Valencay, whose mother was younger
sister of the Princess Janet Catharine,
and of his brother, the Marquis of Tally
rand Perigord, whose oldest son and
heir, the Marquis Maurice de Tallyrand,
married some years ago, at Nice, Miss
Elizabeth Curtis, ofNew York.

TURKEYS.

There is no more profitable fowl than
turkeys; but they must be allowed to
range over the field at their pleasure
They require no feeding when grasshop-
pers are plenty. am inclined to think
that many farmers, who have no very
near neighbors to be molested, can make
more money by raising turkeys than by
farming. 1t would require some capital
to commence with, to give them suitable
accommodations, but with 90 or 80 hens
500 turkeys may be raised worth, at least,
81 200. 1t would require the attention of
one person constantly to watch them,
and see that they return at evening. An
acre of ground, at least, would have to
be enclosed, with high pickets to confne
them in the laying season, with barrels
placed upon their sides around the yard
for them to lay in; or small houses may
be made for that purpose, about three
feet square with water tight roofs. There
is money in poultry of all kinds when
rightly managed
