The most notable social event last week
across the water was the marriage on Tues
day of Mile. Beatrice Rothschild to NJ
Maurice Euphrusse. Il produced a tre-
mendous sensation in Paris, and the &C.
counts of the various splendors of the oc-
casion, of the illustrious guests, of the in
credible wealth and beauty of the presents
and the plutocratic marvels OF the allied
families, quite equal the stories of the
Cars coronation. The Euphrusses are in
Eastern what the Rothchilds are in Western
Europe, and the union IS more significant
and important than the weddings of half a
dozen royalties.
A man has returned to Reading, Pa, who
tells this remarkable story to good wo-
man, his wife who has watched and waited
for him since his mysterious disappearance
twenty-six years ago. The only letter ever
received was one in which he announced
that he had been conscripted in the South
ern army. He says that after be left the
service, he travelled westward and WIS CAP
tured by Indians, who held him 70 T eigh-
teen years prisoner. He adopted their
mode of living, finally made his escape,
went to France, and returned to America
via Cuba. 1t is strange that some women
will believe almost any thing that is told
them.

According to NJ. Nadaudthere are PIG,
270 houses in France without any windows
whatever, and to which light and air are
admitted, where admitted at all, only
through the door or hole in the door,
which has to be stopped in wet or cold
weather. Allowing five people to family
more than 100000 people must be housed
in this execrable fashion. In Paris al
though 10000 tenements have dealt with in
the last thirty years under the act of 1850,
there are still between 5000 and 1000 fami-
lies living in single rooms without means
of warming, and between 1000 and 5000 in
single rooms with no aperture for light
and air, cupboards in fact. Between %,
600 and 10000 habitations consist Of a
single room.
