Millions for an Empress.
THE DUCHESS OF aALLIERA's ENORMOUS LEaAc

THE DUCHESS OF GALLIERA's ENORMOUS LEGACY
TO THE EMPRESS FREDERICK.
From the Philadelphia Times.
While Queen Victoria and the widowed En-
press Frederick are taking the waters together
at Biarritz, they probably spend at least some
portion of their time in denouncing Prince
Bismarck, especially when they recollect that
he had the impertinence to call the empress Of
India "a tea-drinking old tabby." But the
heart of the stout old lady, whose penurious-
ness is the failing most urged against her. has
been made glad by the inheritance by the En-
press Frederick of 81 500 600. left to her by the
Duchess of Galliera, woman who, during her
lifetime, bestowed over $40 DOC. 900 on the needy
and sick of all nations. The duchess was born
sixty-three years ago in Genes, Savoy, the
only daughter of the rich Marquis de Brig
nole-Sale, friend and companion in his exile
of Louis Philippe of Orleans, who afterwards
assembled the throne of France. The marquiese
was possessed of an immense fortune, which
years ago. at the time of his death, was valued
at S50.000.000. The duchess built numerous
hospitals and asylums. The buildings were
monumental structures and the furnishings
and decorations of the most costly kind. 1t
was the desire of this charitable woman to have
her wards surrounded with all the Injuries and
comfort money could command. She was a
long sufferer from asthma and diseased liver
and subject to long and terrible fits of suffoca-
ton. In her last will she distributed her
private fortune among the poor Of many cities.
Her palace in Vienna she leaves to the Austrian
embassy under the proviso that at all times
rooms should be preserved for her only child
Ferrari, duke of Galliera. This young man
is one of the railroad kings of France and Italy
and his fortune is estimated at 500, 0OO, 600.

The Discoverer of the Microscope.

From the London Standard.
NJ Cow, an italian savant, has presented a
paper to the French academy of sciences, in
which he claims for Galileo the distinction Of
having discovered the microscope as well
as the telescope. He has found book,
printed in 1870 according to which Calico had
already directed his tube fitted with lenses to
the observation of small near objects. The
philosopher himself stated, shortly after this
date, that he had been able to observe through
lens the movements of minute animals and
their organs of sense. In letter written in
1914 to a Signor Tarde he states that he has
with his microscope "seen and observed flies as
large as sheep, and how their bodies were COW
cred with hairs. and they had sharp claws"
The date usually assigned to the discovery of
the microscope is 1921, and the invention is at
tributed to Cornelius Drebble, Dutchman;
but according to NJ. Cow the date must be
thrown back eleven years. and the credit Of the
first construction awarded to Calico.

that Joseph was the only one looking
