after her birth, actually sang before II
pnblic audience in this city. OF her
recent debut in Paris the French jour
nails have published glowing accounts.
Observation-Disclosures to triumph in her
chosen profession has been adhered to-
under most discouraging circumstances,
and her friends here and elsewhere
rejoice in her brilliant success.
The happiness of Marie's father and
mother proved to be of short duration,
for years ago Mrs. Won Elsner obtained
a divorce from her husband on the
ground of desertion and cruel treat
ment. She still resides in this city,
poor in health and not rich in purse.
When Marie was u child she never
seemed to have keen enjoyment FOR
the childish sports INDUCED in by other
children. AS she grew older she liked
to be alone, and had a particular fond
ness for books, flowers, and, more than
all else, music. Her very soul was
wrapped in song, and her voice seemed
to her a most entertaining companion.

Paris, speaks of the personal appear

A RUSSIAN OFFICERS PICTURE OF
THE DEATH OF HIS FRIEND.

TRANSLATION of a Private Letter of Rus
sian officer in the Cleveland Herald.l
Coming to a place where the road
somewhat widened, about two miles
from Tells, we halted, and, after driv-
ing away and cutting down in Il short
skirmish party Of Turks who were
busy robbing our dead, we stopped to
form before going on. AS I rode along
the front, shouting out orders to my
men, an agonized cry for help arrested
my attention. 1 looked around. Mo-
thing out heaps of dead everywhere.
OF these none needed me. But bark
once more, and again and again these
piteous cries. Hastily dismOunting,I
threw the bride over my sound arm
and ran toward some bushes from be-
hind which the sounds proceeded, and
there, in a small pool OF clOtted blood,
lay that which at first failed to recog-1
.nize as n human being, though human
it certainly was in its piteous cries anu
the seemingly gloved hands that clutch
ed air and earth in their agony. The
rest, from the waist upward, was one
mass of raw, quivering fiesh--the face
featureless, eyelids and eyes cut out,
the man fiayed alive,all but the hands,
whose white skin at first gave the iin-
preston of their being gioved. This
CHASTITY object lay u few steps from IL
dead horse, one OF our own regiments
golden bays. Faint at heart bent
over the sufferer, evidently one of our
own men, but now nangled beyond re-
cognition. He prayed for death with
his poor torn lips, and in minute
more W., our surgeon, and two more
of our officers were by his side. ]
made room for W., who stopped for !,
few seconds over our comrade, and
then rising, sadly shook his head ,mur-
| nuring sno help" .
A sudden impulse prompted me to
seize the poor, helpless hand in my
own, and pressing 1t, whisper a few
words of comfort. AT the sound of my
voice came the sadder appeal: "Nico-
lila, for old friendships sake send u bull.
let through my heart" This voice
sounded SO strangely familiar, and YET
L could not recognize it. stWho are
you Pr ssAleXis s." Alexis, my ole
schoolmate, who had few hours age

and bold, at the head of our galIan

ed, helpless, his horse shot under him
and the fiendish Turks We're slowl,
torturing him to death when our APP
proach drove them away. Claspins
my hand in his, he still begged 70
death. My revolver was empty, dis
charged in the scuffle few minute
before. 1 looked at W., who SILENT.

twice in succession, while still press
ed the poor hand in mine. We wrap
ped him up in my cloak, and placing
him in the shallow ditch, rolled

hands still moist with his blood, w
