next to Charles Carroll, of Carr clifton,
the richest man in Maryland. Elizabeth,
bis eldest daughter, was young lady
Of striking grace and beauty, and re-
markable accomplishments. When she
was Is years old, Jerome Bonaparte,
brother of the great Napoleon, visited
America in command of . French
frigate. At Baltimore he met Miss
Patterson, and at once fell deeply in
love with her. On December "a, 1903,
they were msrried, despite Mr.. Patter.
sons opposition, by tho Archbishop oil
Baltimore. Napoleon was violently op.
posed to the marriage--wantedh his broth.

or brothers and mother did not kick
up any fuss. Young Bonaparte and his
young bride, who soon expected to be-
come mother, sailed for France, but
wero shipwrecked on the Delaware
coast, and narrowly escaped drowning.
When they arrived off French soil, q
French officer ordered the captain of the
vessel not to land the young "pers0n to
whom Jerome had attached himself"
and the vito was not permitted to land
even "a foot" upon tho territory of
France. Jerome proceeded to Paris and
pleaded with the Emperor to recognize
bis American wife but in vain. In
England tho wife gave birth to son,
Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte. Jerome
yielded to tho will of his imperious
brother, and abandoned his American
wife, bong made Prince of the Empire,
and an Admiral of the French navy, to
compensate him for tho sacrifice. The
Pope Plus VID steadfastly refused to
annul Jerome's marriage with Miss b.
naparte, aud declared his second mar
riage with . princess of Wurtemburg
null and void. Only once, after her
abandonment, did Madame Bonsparte
meet her husband. They met in an art
gallery at Florance. They mot face to
face. Jerome, the King of Westphali .
was greatly embarrassed. He said to
his second wife, the Queen. "That is my
former wife," and hastily left the gal
lery. In 1861, Colonel Jerome Napoleon
her grandson, was, BY order
Of Napoleon LII, declared 90 legitimate

Nine Bonaparte visited Europe at

BY Napoleon, refused to grant her Pc

For the past twenty years Nine. b.

Ia sir ROSrOe a EIirf-

So Roscoe Conkling has finally lob
bied through the bill giving the rich
Mrs. Kate Chase Sprague 5000 out OF
tho public treasury, while q sister OF
Edwin NJ. Stanton fills q clcrkship in
the treasury department at $50 per
month.
"Roscoe Conkling," said lady from
Utica on the cars yesterday, "has been
flirting too much in Washington lately.
He's been real naughty, and his wife
has had to sit down on him."
"Who has stolen our Roscoo's affec.
tons 2" asked.
"Why, tho graceful Mrs. Kate Chase
Sprague," said tho lady, "she has been
flirting with Roscoe dreadfully. Roscoe
ofton sends her boquets, and takes her
in q carriage to the theatre or opera.
Roscoe is proud OF Mrs. Sprague, too.
lie always couples proscenium box
with her, where all the Washington
pcasantry can look at him in royal
state"
CHOW does Mrs. Conkling look upon
the now rival in her Affection III asked.
"Oh she's got good sense. She
doesn't say a word. She never got
vexed about it but once, and that was
it Washington. 1t happened this way ::
Ono day the greenhouse boy brought
her q beautiful boquet. 1t was in Ros-
GOES sweet hand, and read-Oh horrors.
1t read:
Mrs. KATE SPRAGUE,
With Compliments of Roscoe.
"Mrs Conkling did not scream. Oh,
no. She has too much good solid sense
for that, but she silently wiped her eyes,
rolled paper round the beautiful boquet,
and sent her servant with it to Mrs.
Sprague's residence"
The greenhouse man had made mis-
take and sent it TO the wrong place.
Since then. 1t is said, Roscoe carries his
own boquets to MRS. Sprague. while
Mrs. Conkling remains at home in Uti
ca. 1t is understood that she now "sits
down" on Roscoe in private, though
she does smile on him at public recep-
tons.
1t Is now settled, after Roscoe's $50,
600 boquet to Mrs. Sprague, that the
beet way for Senator to win the affec-
tons OF . rich widow is to treat her to
. $50, 900 present in the senate. Every
body can have back taxes by letting
them accumulate, and l advise every
body, young or old, to have them, and
then il you are Q pretty woman, send
for Sir Roscoe, firt with him, and he'll
take your case to the Senate.
Chivalric Roscoe Conkling!

ought to know that even then the licensed
preachers are not now allowed to use
such harsh words, hence the milder term.

by our Legislators, as sort of name for
the law in question.
Play Fair sounds pleasantly enough to
an unregenerate soul, especially the play
part OF it. But eis much opposed to Work

Because he says twenty-five cents day is
too little for days labor. How does he

Next, he assumes to say that all this is

OF the convict. How did Mr.. Play Fair
find out that this section 10 is more law
and penalty than the District Attorney
and Judge knew any thing about ? Or, in
fact, do not the Judge and District
Attorney know that this is part of
he penalty that follows conviction

easonable allowance.
But to leave off all jests about names, or '
Working Hard or Playing Fair. The fol- q
'wing are the true questions involved in a
10 matter: Have our Legislators the right ,

His views on the currency are given in
