RLJDV HERON,S GUARDIAN.

/ ASt6 10Fk WoFt4.
An application has been made in the Surro
gates Court in the matter Of the guardianship
Of Bijou Heron During the latter part OF he
Life Matilda Heron appointed a number O.
guardians for her child,-most1o 1of them infor
nally, and seemingly without any serious
thought as to the consequences. Among the
persons SO appointed was DR.. White, the ply.
sician Of the late Alexander T. Stewart. At
one time Dr.. White was a warm friend of Miss
Heron, but they afterwards quarreled, and she
went SO far as to forbid the mention of his name
in her hearing. DR.. White, however, now seeks
to obtain possession Of Bijou, and has applied
to the Surrogate for authority to act as guard
ian- Mr.. ]. ]. TEaynor was also appointed
guardian some three years ago, but he does
not desire to act unless Bijou wishes him to do
SO. The only other parties interested are Mrs.
Anastasia Davidson, of Philadelphia, Bilou's
cousin, and Mrs. Or: George F. Carey, with
whom Bijou is now living.
following facts: Bijou, who has been verv i'll
since the death of her mother, is very much
grieved at the contest over the guardianship.
She will be IA years old on the LIST OF Septeta-
ber, and then she will be competent by law to
choose her OWL guardian. In the meanwhile
she wants her cousin, Mrs. Davidson, to act in
that capacity, and desires to be allowed to live
with Mrs Carey and to continue her profess
slonal career. 1t appears that Bijou is greatly
afraid that attempts will be made to take her
from the stage and put her to school She in
sists that she is not overworked. She is learning
French and Italian, begun under her mothers
tuition; Nine. Ma1etzek teaching her to play the
harp; and she is already far advanced In the
study Of English and music. Two weeks before
Miss Heron died she said to Mrs. Carey, who
was watching at her bedside, *You can swear
for me that leave Bijou her own mistress and
her own guardian-'' Another time she told
Bijou: ''1f anything happens to me want you
to go to the Careys-" Commenting upon these
expressions Of her mothers wishes, Bijou says:
"And now I am sure they might leave me
alone."
The Surrogate, having all this testimony be-
fore him, has taken the matter under advise
mcnt, In the meanwhile Mrs. Davidson has ex-
pressed her willingness to act as guardian of
Lcr cousin, and to leave her with Mrs. Carey.
MIR. Atliger and Mr. Traynor have also appeared
before the Surrogate and testified substantially
to the facts as above stated. Bijou is resolute
in her intention to remain on the stage. and to
continue for the present at the Union Square
Theatre, where she is engaged for the season.

EFFECTS OF BLUE GLASS.

for many years. placed blue glass in the windows

He Was suddenly called out Of town on urgent
business, and did not return for several DAYS
When he opened the door OF the bathroom he
was impressed with the efficacy Of blue glass.
These arc his own words: I" I found the room
filed with nasty, slilny reptiles, somewhat re-
sembling shrimps, but very much largcr,-in
fact, great many of them would weigh q pound.
After had recovered from my fright, called
my wife and demanded All explanation: where
did these things come from aud WAY have they
been placed in this rooms She looked into tile
room, screamed, and fainted. I carried her to
bed and called for the camphor-bottlc, and, af-
ter sue had sufficiently recove1d her senses, she
cried out f." Oh! those ore the nasty things that
are in the water; those are the cyclops.' Under
the influence Of the blue glass the microscopic
creatures had developed into such enormous pro-
portions TINT they had crowded themselves out
Of the bath-tub until they lay on the floor at
