took a dose OF laudauum. In her room

Her road 10 social recognition was easy,

W. II. Daniels, of the firm of Daniels &
Fisher, millionaire dry goods merchants
of that city. New York and the water

honey moon, which was as brief as its
conclusion was abrupt. A separation
was agreed upon, and Mrs. Daniels
received money and property to !he
value Of $4,000 A few months ago she
came 10 this city and assumed for her
stage name that of Donna MadixNa. lt

dent. SILK became known in Persia
and India, and was at last brought to
Europe. The soldiers of Crassus, b. c.
So, saw silken standards among the Par
thians, and few years later an i'm
mense yelarium of silk protected the
spectators in the BOman circus from the
rays of the sun. From this time Ro-
mans were always provided with the
beautiful textures which We're the adj
niratiun OF their legends. Yet silk was
still the privileged possession of the
rich, and il the Limo OF Aureiian, who
HOurished in the th,rd Coutlry, was
worth about forty times its present
value. The enormous price, W hen con-
sidered with the effect that there was at
the time no commerce between Rome
and the orient, goes far toward explain
ing the great boarding of treasure and
iewelry which has since that
time gone on in India.
There is a dispute between ira
dition and history as to the period when
the genuine cocoon was brought from
China 10 Europe. How was tho vigil
lance of Celesuiais thwarted, since the
expectation of the silk worm from the
ilowery kingdom was forbidden under
the seyerGst penalties. ono account
states that in A. D., 552 monks sent to
Kotham by Justinian succeeded in
bearing away their booty concealed in
stalks of bamboo. The legend says
that once upon time, when kotham
did not yet possess the precious bOmbyX,
The king of one of the provinces sought
and obtained daughter of the Chinese
emperor in marriage. Before quitting
her native land she hid seeds of the
mulberry aud silk worms eggs in her
hair, where it would escape the vigil
lance Of the custom officers on the from
tier. When she reached her new home
she planted seeds of the mulberry in or
der that suita BILE nourishment might be
provided in the leaf for the wo rms--

vanderbilt's Lost Millions.

They say Vanderbilt has lost 100000
O0o-SG5,000, l heard, in Wall street.
Well, che hasn't squealed," as he
proudly said about his ravorite son.
Let's see if he has lost much. There are
abut 100000 shares in the New York Cen
trial. OF these Vanderbilt owned about
35OWl. At one time these sold readily
at $3.50; now they 20 ut 500. The differ
ence between $3.50 and $50 is S6O-a loss
OF $50 ashare for 100000 shares is total
loss Of 2I 100000 in New York Central
alone. Lake Shore has 100000 shares; of
this Vanderbilt owned 2OO,O00 In 1851
this was at Sl35; now it is at $65-loss per
share, SIO--total loss on 200
900 shares, $l4,0O0,0OO. This added
10 the loss on the Central, Sal
100000, aggregates $35,OOO,0OO on
these two roads alone. From this is to
be deducted something for stock sold
while it was falling, perhaps S5,0O0,OOO.
| But then we must add q good deal or
account of the woll-meaut and desperate
utiutile attempts OF Mr. Vanderbilt to
keep the stocks up. When Central was
AT Sl2j, for instan', he would put a few
millions in it and buy, and this would
send itup to Sl35 for week, during
which he would buy again heavily, and
then the whole would slump to $40.
These bull tactics, repeated over and
over every fall, have resulted IN enor-
nous losses, which must he added to
| the Sjj,OO0.O0O above mentioned. But
these losses prove tho sincerity of MIR.
| Vanderbilt. 4 year ago his predictions
Of good times were thought TO he dis
! honest, TO cover intended sales; but the
result shows that no believed what ne
said and acted boldly on his belief. He
did his best to stem the tide, but il
proves TO he a flood New York World.
