Summers Divorced Wife.

Foreign gossip says that Junius s..
Morgan, the ell-known American
banker of London, is about to marry
the divorced wife of Charles Sumner.
He is 70 years old, has been widower
six years, and is worth $4,000, ,00O
The LAZY to whom they say he is to be
married wears the name of Mrs. Alice
Mason. She discarded the Sumner
name when she got the divorce from the
celebrated Massachusetts, statesman.
She was a widow when he married her,
and her first husbands name was Ma
SOD. The latter name she chose to keep.
There has always been a mystery about
her separation from Sumner. They
were married soon after the war, in
1866, and the next year she got her di-
vorce, they lived together but a few
months, when she left him in disgust.
Sumner was then an old man and had
always lived bachelor, and he did not
long survive his unfortunate matrimon-
ial venture. Mrs. Mason is not yet an
old woman, having been quite young
and very attractive in personal appear
ance when she was married to Sumner.
She has an ample fortune in her own
right.

MAKING A HUMAN FACE.
1Aomas Colts Thirteen Years of Expert
enoe Under the Surgeons.

In 1871 Thomas Colt, then twelve years old.
was taken to Bellevue Hospital. suffering from
disease which had destroyed his nose and
ups and had begun to effect his eyes He was
TAKEN IN charge by DR. Gustavus Sabine and
since that time has been under treatment with a
view to replacing the lost parts of the face.
After the course of the disease had been
checked, the process of building up was be-
gun by cutting away the flesh about the
edges Of the orifce, where the nose had
Deen. Then the inside of the large finger OF
the right hand was fayed, and the fresh cut
wound was fitted where the nose should be.
The hand was held in place by bandages and
plaster of paris until the finger had grown
fast to the forehead and cheeks of the patient
In the meantime the mouth was covered by
the hand, and a silver tube was inserted into
the lads throat through which he was fed and
through which he also breathed.
When the grating Of the finger to the face
was completed, and the circulation established
the hnger was amputated near the knuckle
leaving two-and-a-half JOINTS attached to
the face. The operations so far had re-
quired about a wear, but the process was
only begun. The next step was to trim down
the finger into the shape of a nose by remov-
ing the bone and gradually building up the
flesh on each side and drawing the skin from
the cheeks and forehead over it. In course of
time the result sought was obtained, except
that there were as yet no nOstrils.
The eyes of the unfortunate boy had both
been drawn out of position somewhat, and
these were Strengthened by clipping nerves in
the manner usually adopted by oculists in
treating cross-eyed people. The eyebrows
were also patched up at the inner ends
The next step was to give the boy a new pair
OF lips This was done gradually by taking
pieces of flesh from the cheeks and grating
them in place bit by bit
Yesterday after thirteen years of experience
under surgeons knife, having meantime
mnHarOnna and racovaraH from thirty
operations, the patient, now young man, left
the hospital His face was smooth, and to the
casual observer bore no traces of what he had
passed through. The case is extraordinary
for the extent of the work done and the per-
feet result obtained Not less extraordinary
was the fortitude of the patient, who never
murmered under the necessarily painful oper-
ations, and who, when walking the floor be-
cause of his suffering was wont to cheer up
the other patients in the ward by telling droll
stoies, of which he had large supply He
was known in the hospital as "Patient Tom

Live Within Your Means.
From Sermon by Talmage.

From Sermon by Talmage.
/ have the highest commercial authority for
saying that when the trouble broke ont in Wall
street last May there were $:25, 600 600 in sus-
pense which had already spent Spend no more
than you make. And let MS adjust all our bust
ness and our homes by the principles of the
Christian religion.
Our religion ought to mean just as much on
Saturday and Monday on the day between,
and not be a mere periphrasis of sanctity.
Our religion ought to first clean our hearts
and then it ought to clean our lives.
Religion is not, as some seem to think, a sort
of church delectation, a kind of confectionery,
a sort of spiritual caramel or holy gumdrop or
sanctifed peppermint, or theological anesthet-
ic 1t is an omnipOtent principle, all controll-
ing, all conquering. You may get along witt
something less than that, and you may deceive
yourself with it; out you cannot deceive God
and you cannot deceive the world. The keen
business man will put on his spectacles, and he
will look clear through to the back of your head
and see whether your religion is a fiction or a
fact And you cannot hide your samples
of sugar, or rice, or tea, or coffee if
they are false; you cannot hide them
under the cloth of a communion table.
All your prayers go for nothing so long
as you misrepresent your banking institution,
and in the amount of the resources you put
down more specie and more fractional cur
rency, and more clearing house certificates,
and more legal tender notes. and more loans,
and more discounts than there really are, and
when you give an account of your liabilities
you do not mention all the unpaid dividends,
and the United States bank notes outstanding,
and the individual deposits, and the obligations
to other banks and bankers. An authority
more scrutinizing than that of any bank exam
iner will go through and through your busi-
ness.

A Philadelphia Sensation.

Philadelphia society is stirred to its
foundations by the secret that the di-
vorce suit OF Henry ID. Gilpin against
his wife has brought to light. He is
the son of ex-Mayor Gilpin, and was
supposed to be bachelor. He moved
in the best society, and was very popu-
lar with the ladies. 1t appears that he
was married to Miss Nellie Mulhern, a
neice of his fathers housekeeper and a
remarkably beautiful girl with fair edu-
cation. When informed of the mar
riage the father refused to recognize
his sons wife, and threatened to disin-
herit him if he did not leave her. The
marriage was concealed from the rest
of the Gilpin family and from society at
large. Young Mr.. Gilpin continued TO
reside in luxurious bachelor quarters,
but established his wife in rooms on Sew
enteenth street, and literally support
ed her. Mr.. Gilpin AYERS that he has
been in every respect a faithful and
generous husband, except that he did
not appear with his wife in society.
About a year ago he suspected his wife
of faithlessness, and from that time
ceased to visit her. Her allowance was,
however, continued. Mrs. Gilpin de-
MES the charge of infidelity, and will
resist the suit for divorce.

Hot summers in History.
.1oDdon Standard.

From the London Standard
paople who arc already complaining
.,tbo heat while this summer is scarce
= month old, says the XIXeme
S1oolo should remember the extraor-
5;,orv weather of former years. In 627
eho heat was so great in France and
Germany that all springs dried up;
z.,+or became so scarce that many peo-
n1o died of thirst. In $40 work in the
fields had to be given up; agricultural
laborers persisting in their work were
struck down in few minutes, so pow
erful was the sun. In 993 the SIMS
rays we're so fierce that vegetation burn
cd ND as under the action of fire. In
1000 rivers ran dry under the prctracted
heat, the fish were left dry in heaps and
nutrifed in a few hours. The stencil
that ensued produced the plague. Men
and animals venturing in the sun in the
summer of 1922 fell down diving the
throat parched TO a tinder and the blood
rushing to the brain.
In 1882 not only did the rivers dry up.
but the ground cracked on every side
and became baked to tae hardness of
stone. The Rhine in Alsace nearly
dried up. Italy was visited with ter
rife heat in 1139; vegetation and plants
were burned up. During the battle of
Bella, in 1900, there were more victims
made by the sun than by weapons; men
fell down sunstruck in regular rows.
The summer Of 1877 was also severe:
there was an absolute dearth of forage
In 1903 and 1904 the Rhine, Loire and
Seine ran dry. In 1615 the heat through
out Europe became excessive. Scot
land suffered particularly in 1925; men
and beasts died in scores. The heat in
several departments during the summer
of 17O5 was equal to that III glass fur
mace. Meat could be cooked by merely
exposing it to the sun. Nota soul dare
venture out between noon and %. M.
In 1710 many shops had to close; the
theaters never opened their doors for
several months. No a drop of water
fell during six months.
In l753 the thermometer rose to 1l8
deg. In 1873 the heat at Bologna was
so great that a great number of people
were stitied. There was not sufficient
air for the breath, and the people had
to take refuge under ground. In July,
1898, the heat became intolerable.
Vegetables were burned up and fruit
dried upon the trees. The furniture
and woodwork in dwelling houses crack
ed and split up; meat became bad in an
hour. The rivers ran dry in several
provinces during 1911; expedients had
to be devised for the grinding of corn.
In 1922 prstracted heat was accom-
panied by storms and earthquakes dur
ing the drought legions of mice overran
Lorraine and Alsace, committing meal
culable damage. In 1881 the heat
brought about cholera in France; 90
GOO persons fell victims to the visitation
in Paris alone. In 1916 the thermome-
ter marked 125 deg. in the sun. Fin
My, the summers of 1859, 1860, 1869,

More Dynamite Plots.

PARIS, April l5.-Sevcral English
detectives have arrived in Paris for the
purpose of tracing dynamiters. In
spite of Col. Majeudies' report, it is de-
clared that the dynamite used at
Victoria station was made at factory
between Amiens and Boulogne. A
rumor is afloat that an attempt will
shortly be made to blow up one of the
public buildings in London. The
activity OF the dynamiters continues
unabated. They meet twice q week fer
the purpose of making plans and pre-
parations for future outrages. 1t is be-
lieved the English and French police are
fully acquainted with the movements
and that every effort will be made to
couateract the plots. Ii is also believed
that one Of the most trusted dynamite
leaders keeps the police fully informed
OF all their plans.
