4 lady, who was once brilliant orna-
mcnt of the English stage, ended d" the
last stage of lifc's eventful history" at 0
o'clock on Wednesday morning at her
house in Bclgrave square. This was the
dowagcr countess of Essex, who fifty years
ago as Miss Stephens, was the most po2u
lar artistic on the stage, Mrs Stephens had
a delightful voice, which had been cult
waited by the English Professor Welsh, and
the more famous Signor Lauga. Her first
appearance in 1913, in DR.. Arne's pretty
ballad opera ArtararceS was so successful
that for many years she became the prime
favorte of the day. She did not quit the
stage SO early as some who left the boards
to become ladies of rank and title, as, for
example, Lady Becher. Lady Boothby,
Lady Craven, Lady Derby and the Duch.
ess of Bolton. She was in her forty third
y ear when she became the wife of the earl
of Essex; but it can be honestly said that
if she gained coronet by her marriage,
her husband gained true, kind, gentle
and talanted woman. whose native refine
ment. grace and intellect, although she
had played humble characters quite fitted
her for her lofty sphere. Her ladyship
expired Of bronchitis-which has been I'M
usually severe this season--in the eighty.
eighth year Of her age, Her parents were
simple tradespeopc; but they had the good
sense to cultivate her great natural gifts,
and the name of Kitty Stephens" dow
agcr countess of Essex, is another bright
record of the respect, admiration and af.
lection that may be won by an actress who
respects herself and her art.

of happy children who have ridden on his

The Jeanette Crew.

4 dispatch from engineer Melville dated
at Yakutsk. Siberia, January G, leaves little
hope of the survival of Lieutenant DeLong
and the greater part of the crew of the i'll
iated Jeanette. As has before been noted
the Jeanette after twenty-five months OF
ice.bound endeavor to skirt tho north
coast of Europe, beginning at Behring's
Straits. was crushed by the ice on the 18th
of last June and her crew dragged their
beats some 800 miles to aplacO they called
Bennett's Island, which they reached July
%.
August ). they left this island with
three boats and after a journey of some
500 miles, about half of which they made
in boats. they reached. September 10, an
island called Simonlk, 90 miles northeast
of the mouth of the Lena river. September
II they left Simonlki island and that night
a fierce storm coming up, the boats were
separated and the one commanded by
Lieutenant Chipp, who had seven other
men with him has never been heard from.
The boat commanded by Melville, and
containing eleven men landed near the
east bank Of the Lena, September 10th
This boat load discovered natives the / 9th
and on the Goth reached a poor settlement
which they soon left, seeking to 60 to the
south. In about month Melville heard
of couple of Belongs men at a place
called Bulun whore he went and made ar.
rangcments to get his own boat load there
while he went in search OF belong.
1t appears that Belongs boat in which
were fourteen persons reached land ut the
mouth of tho Lena September l7th. They
undertook TO make their way to the south
;,long the west bank of the Lena where
the country is barren and desolate One
fthe fourteen, Erickson, died October 9Th,
and on the 9th of October belong sent
two Of his men, Noras and Ninderman,
forward 10 get help. They reached Bull
cour in two weeks where three natives
found them and transported them to Bulun
on sleds. They reached Bulun October
9th, and the Russians at once went 10
work TO aid them in the search for belong
and his remaining ten companions. This
search prosecuted also by Melville resulted
in nothing except the finding OF records left
by belong prior to the time when he sent
Noras and Ninderman on ahead. So that
these two men with their news Of belong
when they left October 9th bear the last
word from him.
Danenhowcr took the weakest five OF
the survivors from Buum and reached
Yakutsk December 18th. The seven others
reached there January 5th. Danenhower
with nine men was to leave Yakutsk for
the Atlantic seaboard while Melville with
two of the seamen. Bartlett and Ninder-
man, were to remain and prosecute the
search for belong and his ten compan-
ions. Search has also been planned to find
any traces of Lieut.. Chip aud his men
who are supposed to have been lost at
sea in the storm. When Ninderman and
Noras left DeLong the party was on the
north bank Of n western tributary of the
Lena and there is every reason to believe
that the commander and ten Of his men
have persisted on tho desolate plains west

THE JEANETTE EXPEDITION .etters
recently received from Lieut. Jno. Danen-
hover of the Jeanette expedition. dated
at Yakoutsk, December 18th, say that the
trip up the river from Bulun to Yakoutsk
occupied thirty-six days, and was made
on sledges with dogs, reindeer and horses.
Lieutenant Danenhower describes the Jour-
ney rs one full of hardships. At Yak
outsk the governor treated MIN with great
kindness. They were quartered at a
small hotel. In speaking Of the terrible
voyage of the party Lieutenant Danen-
hover says they had to travel 700 miles
over the ice from the ship to the mouth of
the Lena. They landed in shoal water
and were compelled to wade two miles to
land. They were forced to travel 100
miles farther before they reached shelter
and he was up five days and four nights
without sleep or rest. He mentions the
fact that out of 33 comprising the crew
and officers of the Jeanette, only IL are
known to be living, and one known to be
dead.
