rived here on the French steamer
Labrador, late Saturday night The
young Duke is the son of the famous
nobleman who was the chief adviser
of Napoleon III, who was rated as
the first gentleman of Europe in his
time, and who was immortalzed bv
Alphonse Daudet in his famous novel,
"The Nabob.' The young Duke,
however, shows no indication of ever
following in the footsteps of his
father. Although he has scarcely at
tanned his majority, he has made his
mark among that portion of the golden
youth Of Paris who love to pose as
gommeux and whose doings are chron-
icled by the petits journals of boule-
ward gossip. He recently became
notorious, even in Paris, through the
tragic death Of Mile. Feyghisc, the
Young Russian actress who committed
suicide in his house. She had come
to Paris young, innocent girl, full of
warm impulses and passionatencss
such as onl Y scmibarbaric country
like Russia could produce. DcMorny
had opened her eyes, and then when
he had ceased to amuse himself in her
company had attempted to throw her
over. The girl, who had loved him
to distraction, was plunged into pas
sion of grief, and ended her sorrows
in the manner alluded to above. The
circumstances were so sad that De
Morny, to use the expressive language
Of the far West, had to skip the
town"
He was engaged to young lady in
the highest circles, who OF course gave
him his congo after this escapade. As
the young fellow had run through
most of his own fortune, aud the lady
was rich, this turn was rather serious
one for him. He has since been in
Russia for a while, and now comes to
this country to hunt and shoot in the
West. His stay in town will be brief

Three years ago, our fair Irene,
Too frsil to face life's storms;
Was taken in her lovelness
And we were left to mourn.
Bleeding and torn were our heartstrings
For marble was her brow;
We prayed TO 90 with our darling
The Healer said, not now"
Twas in the golden autumn time
when Hrst her face we seen;
A heavenly look It ever wore,
The face of sweet Irene.
All day long with the sunbeams bright,
Irene sat and played,
Minimizing With a gladstone heart,
The songs the sweet birds made
Ten hApsy years, aud then the sands
OF life did slower run;
The thread was snapped-the cord was loosed-
We how'd. THY will he done
But oh how hard 1t was to say
How bitter was the heart
when we know that God had willed we
From dear Irene should part
And thea long, long dreary blank
Came after she was gone;
Until VIC saw how grieyyd was God
To see US cit and mourn
Surely Irene In heav'n could see
How selfish was our life;
Then surely she could never wish
our heart so full Of str 10
In the goamings vision came
All clothed with heavily light;
These words it said: For others live
Then vanished in the night
In the chain from earth to heaven
The brightest link that's seen,

The link is sweet Irene,

Foolish Naval Cadets.

The new academic term mt Annapolis began
on Monday. Tho preceding session broke up
last June In Generalization and disorder, the
outbreak during the graduating exercises
having become n public scandal The
summer cruise was marked by q pro-
longed course OF hazing on the Constellation,
which resulted in tho expulsion OF seven
cadets by the sentence OF court martial, and
cost several others tho annual thirty days
leave which follows the practice cruise, even
II nothing more.
Now, no sooner have the cadets returned to
Annapolis than several OF them, in spite of
the recent trials and dsmissals, are arrested
on tho charge OF annoying fourth class men,
and are punished by confinement on the San
tee in one case and deprivation OF privileges
in the others.
The folly OF these young mon Is almost In
credible. In some very needy private SEM
mary the fear OF losing tuition foe, which
would he sorely missed, may sometimes
cause violations OF rules to be overlooked or
mildly treated; and even at Annapolis, were
there an imperative demand for more officers
for the navy. students might possibly hope
for forgiveness after unruly conduct. But how
can they be blind to the facts that they are
educated at the expense Of the Government; I;
that the navy Is topheavy with officers that
the Academy has 80 ovcrrun the service with
Its graduates as to have become almost a
nuisance; that the Secretary himself has
been fighting the courts in the endeavor to
keep as many cadets as possible from enter
ing the navy; and that Congress has been
forced to declare that hereafter only ten
from each class shall be taken into the SER

for more?

We Differ from a Brother Journalist.

Among the various comments of the cdi
tor Of the Chicago Tribune upon the recent
changes in the price OF several OF our con-
temporaries in this city, one was particularly
wanting in accurate knowledge and discern
ment. In speaking of The SUN. Mr.. MEDILL
thought that in order to maintain its present
preeminence it would be Obliged rs result
OF the cheapening Of other journals, to double
its size and double its expenses.
1t is altogether mistaken idea to suppose
that In doubling the size OF such n news
paper as THE Sun, the expenses OF making 1t
would be increased in a corresponding ratio.
Mr.. MEDILL is the editor OF a journal which
often far exceeds in size any OF our Eastern
contemporaries, and he naturally would not
understand the peculiar difficulties to be
contended with In making THE SUN. With
us the problem Is how to prepare n news
paper which shall be OF convenient form, and
at the same time contain all the news OF
tho day, discuss fully the various qucs-
tlons of public interest that contin-
ually arise, and still have room for
the complaints and interrogatories OF the
aggrieved, the oppressed, the curious, the ig-
norant, or even the querulOus. 1t is not an
easy matter. To do it requires the employ
ment OF men Of great knowledge and ability,
who after the news has been furnished, go
over it and examine it with more rigid scru-
tiny and so arrange and condense 1t that it
shall finally be presented to our readers intel
ligibly, concisely, and freshly, though still
retaining every fact Of interest or moment
This requires great deal Of labor, and labor
OF verv expensive kind because the men
selected to do it must possess more than tho
usual experience and Judgment and in the
long run these are the qualities that are the
most valuable and command the highest
prices. No less news comes into THE Sun
Office than into that of any OF our esteemed
contemporaries, and just as much goes out.
but in e terser, more pungent, more read
able form. and to arrange 1t In such
shape requires the employment OF far
greater amount OF brains and, consequently,
the expenditure OF more money. II such a
newspaper increases its size, it becomes re-
lievcd OF this great pressure, needs fewer
and less finely discriminating assistants,
and, therefore, though its volume should be
doubled, there would be no like increase. in its
expenditure. Quality is what commands the
highest price, not mere mass.
