FREDDY'S PASSION,

Chicago Inter Ocean, Yesterday
That Mrs. Langtry objected to Gebhardt
coming to Chicago there il no donbt From
the time she left New York Sunday morn
ing. until his arrival here on Friday, the tele-
graph wires between fine two cities fairly
burned with passionate messages. and the
foolish Young man made no attempt to CON
ceal his emotions from his associates in New
York. Several times n dav he would send
her teleorams some of them three and four
hundred words in length. full of protesta-
tions of his love and t6e holIovness of life
without her nresence IF tbe files of the
Western Union telegraph office could be
spread to the world thew would show evil

notified him over the wire that he might
come if he would bring Maria with him and
che a GOOD how y The disnatch was adj
dressed to "F. Gebbardt Union Club. New
York" and signed "With love L."
Maria is n discreet gentleman of nearly
twice Freddie's age and experience an artist
by profession, and related in a morganatic
way with the royal famiiv of Italy. He
knew Mrs. Langtry in London. and is re-
garded as one of her confidential friends.
Gebhardt has cultivated an intimacy with
him for some weeks and into Marra's ear
doth he pour the torrents that gush from
his heated and unsatisied soul Maria
smiles at the bows folly but does not rebuke
it. He consented to make the trip to Chi
cago and act as Freddie's chaperon, becom-
ing responsible for his good behavior.
During the journey from New York to Chi
cago Ge1hardt created good deal of amuse-
ment fot the passengers upon the same train,
all of whom very soon found out who he was,
and made 1t their entertaining occupation to
watch his movements. He was very lavish
with his money and demonstrative in his ac-
tions, and, as one lady remarked;
'You would have known he was in love by
the way he acted"
Freddie kept his servant very busy rum
ming between the cars and the telegraph
offices at the stations along the route. and
used up whole block of telegraph blanks

OLD WORLD MISCELLANY
How Man Dropping 900 Feet Feels.


London Times.
With regard to the recent sad suicide of
girl by leaping from one of the towers of
Notre Dame, DIR. Bronardell's expressed view
that asphy in the rapid fall may have
been the cause of death, has given rise to
some correspondence in La Nature NJ. Bon
temps points out that the depth OF fall hav-
ing been about sixty-six metres, the velocity
acquired in the time Cless than four seconds)
cannot have been so great as that sometimes
attained on railways, e. g., thirty-three me-
tres per second on the line between Chalons
and Paris, where the effect should be the
same yet we never hear of asphyxiation of
engine-drivers and stokers. He considers it
desirable that the idea in question should be
exploded, as unhappy persons may be led to
choose suicide by fall from height, under
the notion that they will die before reaching
the ground. Again, NJ. Gossin mentions
that few years ago man threw himself
from the top Of the column of July and fell
on an awning which sheltered workmen at
the pedestal; he suffered only few slight
Commissions. NJ. Remy says he has often
seen an Englishman leap from height of
thirty-one metres (say 103 feet) into deep
river; and he was shown, in 1852 in the
island of Oahu, by missionaries, a native
who had fallen from verified height of
more than 800 metres (say 1000 feet). His
fall was broken near the end by growth of
ferns and other plants, and he had only
few wounds. Asked as to his sensations in
falling, he said he only felt dazzled.

A HYDROPHOBIC DEATH.


Philadelphia Papers, Sunday.
Harry l.. Smith, a boy thirteen years of
age, residing at No. SOB North Thirteenth
street, died last night of hydrophobia, after
the most terrible suffering, during which he
became totally blind. He was bitten by a
terrier dog nine weeks ago. 1t was not until
last Wednesday that serious symptoms were
manifest. On the evening of that day he
returned home from work, complaining of
a severe headache. Almost as soon as he
saw his mother he burst into tears. He said:
Mamma, I've been sick all day." AS he
was a lad of remarkably buoyant disposition,
his actions thoroughly alarmed the mother,
who speedily put him to bed, after admins
he complained that his throat
was parched, and called loudly
for water. When the fluid was brought to
him his whole frame underwent involuntary
contraction; his features twitched nervously
and assumed an expression ofintense agony.
Although he insisted upon drinking the
water, it was only after the most violent eff
forts that he succeeded in swallowing it. On
Friday neighboring physician was called in
attendance, but upon learning the nature of
the case he declined to prescribe, saying that
it would useless, nothing on earth could
save the lad. Drs. d. Hayes Agnew and A G..
B. Hinkle were sent for, but before they ar
rived the youthful sufferer had several VIC
lent commissions.
During his rawlings he barked and snapped
like dog and frothed at the mouth. His
mind had totally fed-nothing could quiet
him. In addition, the scar on his right hand
became red and irritable In his agony the
little fellow endeavored to climb up one
of the posts of the old-fashioned
bed. The father, although man
of muscular frame, was unable to hold him
down, and assistance was necessary to sub
due him. At in the evening both physi-
clans arrived They at once pronounced the
lad fatally afflicted with hydrophobia, and
stated that he was beyond the power of medi-
cal relief. The only thing that could be
done was to administer anesthetics, so that
the youthful sufferer might pass away
quietly. Morphine was then given the boy,
and he became quiet. His rawlings ceased,
though he occasionally after violent effort,
sat upright in bed. At 2 o'clock on Saturday
afternoon he called for water. A glass was
given him, and, although the effort nearly
choked him to death, he swallowed every
drop. At this time his eyes were twice their
natural size, and almost bursting from their
sockets. AT o'clock the little fellow was a

BEECHER's THEOLOGY.
He breaches Evolution, Abolishes He'll, and
Laughs at Original Sin.

Laughs at Original Sim
New York Times, Sunday.
Mr. Henry Ward Beecher lectured last
evening at Cooper Union, before an audience
of $500, on Evolution and Revolution" in
which he elaborated on his speech at the
Herbert Spencer dinner, and detailed at
length his belief in Christian evolution.
He began with statement of the doctrine of
evolution as 4 description of the de-
velopment of the divine method pur-
sued in creation. The world as we see
it, was the product and growth of natural
laws, This is held in general way by scien-
fists OF the present day up to the point of the
origin of man. Here there is a difference as
to whether the human soul was the product
of the progress described, or of special influ-
ences not brought to bear on inferior beings.
With regard to the relation of evolution to
the existence of divine Creator, he thought
evolution left the question where it stands.
There are three kinds of evolutionlsts, athe-
istic, agnostiC and theistic The latter is
Christian. The existence of God cannot be
established by physical proof. But there is
in all higher natures that which feels the ex-
isteuce OF God. He would not say that man
descended from the animal Gre
alton by uninterrupted natural
law but if it be true, it throws
light on many questions, and explains many
difficulties not previously explained by any
other hypothesis. How does this view affect
the word OF GOD? 1t Will rescue that word
from the abuse that has been made of it by
believers in plenary or verbal inspiration
of the Bible. The Bible is history of the
development of man along a national and
special line. 1t is itself an example of evolu-
ton The word of God in its structure is con-
firmatory of evolution. If evolution is the
divine method of creation it is to be seen in
the household in the development of
child. People have thrown the Bible at as
tronomy and geology, and yet both stand.
Again Mr.. Beecher said: You don't be-
lieve in hell. The men who preach it don't.
They think they do, but they don't.
Do you believe any man could believe in
eternal punishment and live in peace? Could
1 look out on my felIow-men and believe
ology does not tell whether consequences
follow in the other life He believed they
did. but that is a different thing from the in
fernal doctrine of eternal punishment. Mr.
Beecher ridiculed the Bible account of Adam
and Eve in the Garden of Eden,
and denounced the theory of original
sin and total depravity and that swarms of
human beings are damned because Adam ate
of the apple If this be the God he was
called upon to worship he could not love or
reverence such being. The whole theory
of morals is to be advantaged by evolution.
The essential truths Of God all run down in
their roots into natural laws. Every great
precept stands, not on the authority of
priests but stands rooted in the authority of
nature itself" Mr. Beecher said that evolu-
ton would compel men to change their
theology, and that would be good radiance.
He closed by thanking God for Christian
evolution,

Royal and Ministerial Salaries.
London Truth.


In 1871 Sir Charles Dixie stated that the
cost of royalty was excessive and he esti-
mated it at 81 000,0 per annum. He was
not far wrong, as was conclusively proved
when an additional grant was asked
for Prince Leopold on the occasion of his
marriage. But it by no means follows nee
essarily that Sir Charles wishes to disestab-
lish royalty because heis in favor of partially
disendowing it. In a country where the
Prime Minister receives $4,000 per annum,
and an agricultural laborer about las. per
week, it is conceivable that the sovereign
might be respected with yearly income of
ESQ, 900 per annum, and that each of her
children might maintain themselves in per-
feet comfort on $4,000 per annum. In the
days of Charles II. the post of Prime Minis
ter was worth about $4,000 per annum. L
do not imagine that the respect for the in
cumbent for this post has diminished be-
cause the salary attached to it is
only one-twentieth OF that sum. 1t is strange
that it is precisely those who pirate the loud
est about their loyalty who would reduce it
to it to a mere question of pounds, shillings
and pence. Nothing can be more despicable
and more sordid than this golden-calfsm.
For my part, l do not feel more resrect for
a monarch residing in a huge building and
surrounded by a herd of lackeys than
should for the same monarch in a small cot
tage and with a couple of parlor-maids.
