stood that in despair of winning the
hand of the actress he had determin-
ed to return home and had even book
ed his passage and wonld leave his
headquarters in the Fifth Avenue
Hotel within few days. Inquiring
at the hotel developed the fact that no
French Marquis of the description
given was, or ever had been, stopping
there. AT the same time rumors were
set afoat that the "Marquis" was no
Marquis, but bore the name ofClement.
He left the city about the middle of
August and follows Miss Burt to Ash
bury Park, whittier she had gone with
her mother. He renewed his atten-
tions, took her driving on several oc-
casions, but was cut short in his ca
reer when an Ashbury Park stable
keeper caused his arres, for hiring a
horse and wagon and not paying for
them. He was released and next day
repeated the scheme on another man,
this time turning the horse loose on
the beach. He was again arrested
The police authorities, fancying him
to be of unsound mind, dispatched an
officer to this city inquiries which re-
suited in the discovery that his name
was Charles Clement and that he was
formerly cashier at Delmonico's. 1t
is not known where he procured the
means for his lavish display. He was
released and went to Long Branch

tween the acts in their stage dress or
undress, as the roll may require, to
chat and drink champagne-nothing
of a meaner character being consum-
ed within the closely guarded pre-
cincts of this apartment.
The new comor claimed not to be
very conversant with the English
tongue, using French exclusively. Ru-
NOR finally settled it that he was a
French Marquis of great wealth, who
was on a visit of pleasure to this coun
try. This story passed current among
majority Of the curious ones and he,
while advancing no claim to such dis
tinction, tacitly acknowledges it to be
fact, accepting the homage which on
all sides was paid his supposed illus
trious birth and colossal fortune. A
few close observers were inclined to
pooh, pooh, the nobility theory, for
while his clothes were faultless his
manner was not above criticism and
though he undoubtedly spent large
sums of money it was noticey that his
hands were red and rough. All were
however, of the opinion that he was
madly infatuated with this pretty SOU
brette. He drew checks for large sums
of money and had them cashed at Kos
ter & Bial's, the money finding its way
back into the till for wines and lunch
es for the fascinating Miss Burt and
her friends and fellow actresses. These
checks were duly honored when pre-
sented for payment at the bank, and
the proprietors of the garden were du-
ly convinced that they had bona
fide Monte Cristo. Numerous excur-
sions to Coney Island were indulged
in during the afternoon, the young
man disdaining the usual plebeian
method, driving the fair charmers the
entire distance III the finest carriages
the Hoffman House stables could fur
nish.
Invariably every evening he ap-
peared in his box at Rosters & BiaPs
and every day escorted the ladies at
taehed to that establishment on some
excursion planned and carried out on
prineely scale. They had corner on
the Marquis and rejoiced accordingly
-aH but the young lady of his atfec-
tions who tolerated him to q certain
extent, but did not smile upon hissuit.

a few of the business men-very sell
domover half-do all that is done to-
wards supporting that newspaper.
Most of the people take the paper, but
few of them advertise. Now is this
right? Does not the paper help every
business man in that place? Does it
not draw trade from which each one
of the merchants gets his share? Now
if a newspaper does help to build up
a town and to increase the trade of
that town-and there are few, if any,
who will deny this assertions it not
the duty Of every business man to
give that paper small advertisement
if he can do no more?
We are not here speaking for the
Free Press solely, for it has strong
hold upon the affections of our people
and receives Il larger patronage than
most papers-but for every paper in
North Carolina. The paper is the in
dex Of the people of the town in which
it is published. 1t is what the people
pay for-with an occasional exception
and if it is not what it should be
the people are responsible. Every
business man Ill town should give
his town paper an advertisement,
whether he believes the advertisement
will pay him directly Or not. It is
his duty to labor for the success of the
town paper, and this he cannot do
merely with lip service.
These are things that the business
men of every town should think OF.
To act upon the selfish plan of invest
ing no money excepting where you
can see two dollars returning at oace
for every dollar put out, is "peuny
wise and pound foolish" It is suicid
al to the interest of the community in
which you live, If the community
was made up of such beings all the
people would die of pure stagnation.
Encourage and work for what ever
tends towards developing and building
up the community you live in.

a few months 5000 was raised from
donations. 1t was then decided to
hold bazaar in Richmond, and Oh
the Goth of May, 1884 it was opened.
This movement realized S24 700, and
with the $4,000 already in hand it was
decided to buy a suitable place near
Richmond. This was found just two
miles west of the city-thirty six acres,
with an oak grove Of ten acres and Il
fair house. This cost $4,000 cash,
and the improvements added since
about 5000, January 18th, 80, posses
sion was had and few of the most needy
were placed in the Home. On the
Goth oflast May the formal dedication
took place, just II months from the
date on which the Bazaar was opened.
The main building has accommoda-
tions for 60 inmates, and the cottages
will provide for 60 more. The Gotta
ges to the left were built by Hon. w.
w. Corcoran of Washington and
Messrs. Downey and Lewis Ginter. AS
additional room will be needed other
cottages will bo erected.
There are at present thirty-three in
mates and eight more will be received
within week. In recent number
of Frank Leslte's Illustrated Ne,cspa-
per appears the following in relation
to the Home:
Having no right to ask or expect
aid from the general Government, the
House must depend on the liberality
of a generous public. No matter what
we may think of the cause in which
he fought, We must admire the cour-
age and self devotion displayed by the
Confederate soldier during four years
of conflict, and the fact that many of
these are now old and infrm appeals
to the charitable of the North and
the South alike. It is a noteworthy
fact that the first responses came from
the men who fought against them, and
at the head. of this list stands the name
of u. S. Grant, with words of encour-
agement and approval, as well as SUBJ
stantial aid. w. w. Corcoran, of
Washington, d. G., sent S5,00O-the
largest donation received.
The Home will be glad to receive
donations and money, and this appeal
to the patriotic people Of our land
should meet with hearty response.
The Board of Visitors of the Home
consists of the following officers, Gen.
Fitzhugh Lee, president Capt. Chas.
y. Williams, tirsL ce-prcsi,lent, Pey-
ton Wise, second vice-president; Jus.
b. Pace, treasurer Maj. j.. w. Pc
