b CHICAGO, June 2O.-The racy scandal re-
ported from Milwaukee, involving young
Englishman named sartoris, sup pposed to
be identified by marriage with q prominent
American family, and Mrs. Bush, q young
English lady, who was represented as liy.
ing poem Of marvellous beauty OF face and
form in the shape OF q blonde widow, pos.
sesses additional interest from the fact that
the lady in question Is at this time in
Chicago, stopping at the fremont House.
The scandal referred to states that
Algernon Sartoris was in the habit Of clan
destinely visiting the above mentioned
lady. A reporter called on her to-day and
the most liberal imagination on the basis
OF the charms claimed for her could not
form anything like. near or iust estimate
OF her beauty. Tall and willowy, dressed
in tightftting and tasty costume Of dark
plaid she displayeda form Of extraordinary
symmetry. Her featnresRre nodded after
the classic, with a slight tendency to en-
bolpoint. Her hair is very light and trained
in, becoming wayeletS, while her eyes arc
large and Of liquid blue. She was indeed a
picture OF womanly beauty as she stood for
aslnoment vithherhand on the door knob,
surveying her. visitor with q half smiling
halfquizzical countenance, as II undecided
whether she was to be subjected to az in.
quisitorial torture or handled with soft

OF these the Harmonic was formed in 1858

Almost every family and individual
here has some bit Of romance in connec.
ton with the late war. To-day, at a musi-
cale, 10 which was kindly invited, 1 met
a lady whose talents as q musician and
whose remarkable beauty had attracted
nv attention. She possessed that rare
type OF prettiness that Is wholly southern.
Great, deep, blue eyes, the face perfect in
every feature; hair rich In its abundance,
and wonderful In its tint This is her
story; Twenty years ago, when the tide
OF battle in long, bloody waves swept over
tho terrible field OF Manassas, baby girl
vas left an orphan on the battle ground.
During the changes oi the fatefnl day, the
home Of the blue eyed girl was at
ono time directly between the fire
Of both armies. As the first shots
whistled above the house, the parents
started 10 fee for q place oil refuge. A
dozen yards from the door both were shot
down, and the baby, an orphan, without
sister or brother, was alone IN the world.
The battle ragged on, dead and dying were
eysryyhere, but the baby was unharmed.
The day wore away, and Just "a the suns

occurs on Wednesday evening, at which
time the most important work, Max Bruch's
"Die Frithjoi Sage" will be rendered; also

quired such proficiency in them that
Prof. Federlein wheA here expressed his
surprise. He said he felt his heart sink
when he visited Columbus and heard the
societies there sing. He said to himself,
"Wbat must they be at Wheeling?" When
he arrived here he was agreeably disap-
pointed tofind hisfears entirely groundless.
and he was therefore the more delighted.
