The PRESENT KHEDNE OF EGYPT.
His Lack of Ambition, and Correct
Private Life.

From the London Truth.
Tewfik is the son or slave, and his
father, Ismail, in changing the order
of succession, never intended that he
should be the heir. The ex-Khedive
gave the place Of legitimate spouse to
another woman, who is now staying
with him in Naples. Ismail intended
to establish the Napaleonie distintion
between a civil and n royal family. He
was encouraged to hope that he might
purchase the right to do so by the late
Sultan. But when. Abodul Aziz
found there was no more money to be
extracted from the Khediye, and learn
ed that Tewfik was easy tempered and
very ignorant, he insisted upon the
right of primogeniture being respected.
Only a few intriguing friends, who had
secretly back his luck, when Ismail
was at Cairo, knew that he was not so
ignorant as he made believe. One Of
them was SignOr MARITIME, the cousin of
his Italian friend, and now his private
Secretary.
Tewfk was supposed to be in the
hands of MARITIME. This was an error.
He had very clever wife, and was
uxorious. The Hanem Emeneh feared
no rival. 1t was she who would reign,
and she was an Anglomaniac. Her
dearest friends were English ladies.
Whenever the Khedive gives an audi
ence to minister or foreign consul
the Hanem Emench is posted behind a
screen of carved wood, where she hears
and sees, but remains invisible! One
day q conversation between the French
Controller and Tewfik was suddenly
interrupted 10y an alteration behind
the screen. The disputants were
Emeneh and her mOtheI-in-law who is
Jealous of her influence, and is super
stitiOus, ill-tempered old woman, who
thinks that it was by the virtue OF her
ineantatiOns lsmail was desPOsed. III
the old lady had her own way, a sorcer-
or would have been placed over the
Cabinet when her son began his reign.
Tewfik would be delighted il Emeneh
had stronger belief in sOrcery. His
faith in the supernatural, such as it has
been revealed to him by his mother, Is
absolute.
He is fond of the cOmpanionship Of
children, and himself directs all the
Christmas and the other juvenile par
ties that are given by his three young
people. The eldest of the trio is II
years old, and the most youthful, Prin-
cess Kadshat, is in her 4th year. A
prodigious quantity of Roman candles
and Bengal lights are consumed at these
fetCs, to which the children Of distin-
guished Europeans at Cairo are in
YitCd.
As a ruler, Tewfik has adheared to
the constitutional theory of Government.
He is satisfied with drawing his pay,
and leaving to his Ministers all respon-
sibility. Whatever they decree he
cOuntersignS, and asks no questions
except behind the scenes, where he APP
plies for information and advice to the
Shrewd Martina.
Tewfik has never been in the money
market. If there is one thing in which
ne is firm, it is in the auditing of his
household accounts, which he looks
into carefully. His good nature shows
itself in a thousand small ways, but
never i'm profuseness. Cairo is no longer
the Eden of the Palais Royal actress.

"Hello, Baby"


NJ. b. Curtis and his wife have a pet
parrot which is there constant travel

MARRIED HER FOR SPITE.
An Indicted Horse-ThIef Takes Re-
yenge by Eloping With His Cap
tors Daughter.
From the Denrer Tribune.

Tors Daughter.
From the DeRrer Tribune.
On Monday, July 10, Will Hall and
Lulu Barron were licensed to marry.
Written across the stub of the marriage
license in the Recorders Office was the
request TO reporters: Don't publish"
Yesterday Captain J. w. Barron, ex-
Sheriff of Ebert county, Colorado,
came to the Recorders office to ask il
such q certificate had been issued. He
looked with horror on the stub, which
bore the date of July 10, for there he
saw the name of his daughter. The
other name was that of a young man
whom he knew too well. He had fol-
lowed and arrested Will Hall in Gunni-
son county and br ought him back to
KiOwa on charge Of DEMONSTRATING.
The young man is still under bond to
appear at the District Court in Elbert
county. During his probation the
kind-hearted Sheriff had given him
employment on his ranch. This was
the VIII Hall mentioned. He had
wOOed and won and finally revenged
himself by marrying hiscaptor's daugh-
ter.
1.-THE girl is only Is years of age" de-
elared Captain Barron, as he gazed in
horror at the record of the license is
sued, land the boy is an indicted horse
thief. How could he get this license?
| will get the marriage set aside. L will
have him arrested" And the irate ex-
Sheriff left the office. The matter was
immediately put into the hands of
General Sampson, who was employed
as an attorney TO look up the case.
When young Hall obtained the mar
rage license he swore that the girl was
Is years OF age. This constituted per-
jury, and for this he can be arrested.
Other steps to obtain divorce or to
have the marriage in some way annull-
ed will be taken. The girl is at home,
and has not seen her husband for more
than fifteen minutes since the mar
riage.

A ROMANCE OF THE WEST.
The Man Who Sent a Bonanza King to
California.


From the NelV York Nail and Express.
Partition suits have been begun in the
Supreme Court by heirs of Mr.. Theo-
doOe NJ. Dougherty, a former politician
Of the Seventh ward. Dougherty died
in 1862. He had been an Alderman, an
Assistant Alderman and wholesale
liquor dealer, and had line of towboats
on the East river. William s. OBrien,
the California millionaire, was his chief
clerk. Dougherty gave O'Brien the
money that took him to the Golden
Gate. When Dougherty died he had
six children, the eldest of whom was
William. In 1875 the latter went to
California and entered the employ of
his fathers former clerk, O'Brien. vii
liam was successful until the death of
O'Brien. Then he took to drink. He
stopped visiting at the mansion OF the
O'Briens, and did not write home. The
last his relatives heard from him was
that be was dead. His brother Theo-
dore, who is in the employ of Brooks
Brothers, on Broadway, said that he
went to San Francisco two years ago
and made thorough investigation. He
could find no trace Of him, and told his
brothers, sisters and mother that he was
dead. The mother had doubts, and
would not believe him dead. Recently
she wanted to sell the family residence
on East Broadway, but was unable to
do so from the fact that she had not the
proofs of her sons death. Legal pro-
ceedings We're begun through Messrs.
Stitts, lawyers, of Fulton street, to close
up the estate. The lawyers had been
doing business for California house.
They requested the latter to employ a
detective and look up the missing man.
After three weeks search Detective
Davis found the man he sought in q
suburb of California. He was living I'M
der an assumed name, and had been
leading the life of q tramp, and was
completely crushed. Money was sent
on to California, and Dougherty is now
coming home. His mother, an aged
woman, now lives at 9 East One Hun
bred and Swenty-E Eighth street.

me?n 'Nice baby said the voice, but
no sooner had the voice spoken than
another voice from inside the room-a
big, burly mans voice called out: go
away from that door and let the parrot
go to sleepm 1t was Mr.. Curtis who
spoke, but he had no idea it was
Governor Tabor outside. Governor
Tabor slid quietly into his room, but he
thought it was such good joke he had
to tell the boys about it after supper, and
in the Opera House lobby last night it
was all the talk.
