GEORGE ELIOT"

SNN-- --O~ ~ -
of news to many of our readers, and yet
may be to some, that the person who has
given to the world number of extraor-
dinary works of fiction under the pseu-
donym of George Eliot, is properly Miss
Marian G. Evans, v no during the last few
years has been known as Mrs. G. R.
Lewes. The history of this lady is pecu-
liar. She was the daughter of poor
English country curate who, dying, left
her to be adopted by another curate
equally poor, but who furnished the little
orphan superior education. Her unu-
sual literary talent manifested itself
very early, and at the age Of twenty
three she went to London, and there pro-
duced articles 50 profoundly philosophic
that she secured immediate access to the
best English magazines and reviews She
soon attracted the attention of Herbert
Spencer, the philosopher, and became his
disciple and pupil, who offered her his
hand that she refused. She soon ap-
peared in the world of fiction with some
of the most erudite and philosophical
novels of the age. Adam Bede had an
immense success. Felix Holt and
Others followed. Romola, while too
erudite and politico-p o-philosophic for
every class of readers, was wonder
picture of the ecclesiastical fermentation
in the italian Peninsula and bigotry de-
serving the time of the learned but mar
tyred Savanarola. Daniel Deronda is
another remarkable production, the latest
complete work of fiction she has written,
and perhaps her last, as she is now fifty
nine years old and in delicate health. A
few years ago she did what shocked the
English public and cut her off from the
sympathy and recognition of many who
have hitherto and indeed continue to sin.
cerely admire her writings-she married
Mr.. G.. R. Lewes, an eminent scientific
and philosophic English writer, who
was separated from but not legally di
vorced from his wife. The original Mrs
Lewes eloped with a adashing society mar
some years ago and wa subsequently, aban
doned abroad. Her husband though
it best to condone her fault and brough
her back to his home and forgave her in
fidelity. Subsequently she repeated th'
offense with another gentleman, when Mr.
Lewes sought to obtain divorce and wa
refused one under the English law
which was unable to grant it be
cause he had received her bacl
to his home after the first elopement
Knowing this fact Miss Evans unitet
herself to Mr.. Lewes and now resides il
the house in Regents Park where h
died few months ago, as bis widow
The literary and philosophical rapport be
tween her and Mr.. Lewes must have bee
great to induce her to take step so IN
tagonistic to English society ideas, an
which cut her off from all except selec
few literary friends who frequented thei
house after their union. She has earned
it is stated, over $25O,000 by her pen an

for, as she lives, since Mr.. Lewes death
in the greatest seclusion. 1t was recetl
stated that she has expressed the wis
: that her tombstone shall bear only tn
simple inscription, "George Eliot"

1t has ever been predlcated by

no objective existence, and that
it was all sensation as produced by
the refrangibility of light-that the

The Late Thomas B. Waea.

We take the following bio
graphical ~keteh Of Thomas b
Wade, who died at the County
Hospital yesterday, from cancer OF
the stomach, from yesterdays
Evening Express:
The death of Thomas b. Wade, n
pioneer of California and a Veteran
of the Mexican War, occurred this
morning at the County Hospital.
The deceased was extensively
known in ills State, and almost
universally known here. He came
to California in 1919, and we first
knew him at Mokelumne Hill,
where he was for many
years the leading merchant.
He subsequently removed to Pla-
cerville, of which he was promi.
nent citizen for many years, at one
time filing the Office of Mayor of
the city. Thence he drifted over
to Washoe and into the Pacific
Coast Territories, meeting with
the usual checkered fortune
of pioneers, until lie came
here, some five years ago.
For a time he was leading con-
tractor here on our public works
Mr.. Wade served in Worth's bri-
gade during the Mexican war. He
was at the storming of Monterey,
took part in the battle of Cerro
Gordo, Moline del Rey and Che
pultapec. He was wounded in the
last named action, but recovered
sufficiently to take part In the cap
ture of the city of Mexico, having
been one Of the heroes at the storm
ing of the Belen Gate. Mr.. Wade
was q man of some culture and of
considerable native ability. In his
prime he was clear-headed, saga
cious and indomitable. His business
capacity was at one time of the
first order. Reverses and misfor.
tunes, however, blunted his ambi-
ton and dimmed the brightness Of
his intellect. Like many of the
pioneers, he relaxed his energies
and allowed himself to drift with
the tide. Unable to recover his
ground, he lost courage and ceased
to struggle with the world. But he
never lost his pride, and the gentle
man shone through his actions and
his conversation at all times. He
has run the whole gamut of pioneer
life, sounding all its notes, aud full.
filling destiny which, alas, has
numberless counterparts in the
history of the men who founded
this State. May he meet with that
peace and happiness in the new
life he failed to realize in this.
His funeral will take place under
the auspices of the Veterans of the
Mexican War, from Mr.. Ponet's
rooms, at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning.
