production Of his Nero" in the United
States, in March, 1887, was noted event in
American musical annals; there was regu-
lar Rubinstein furore and Rubinstein clubs
were projected in several cities, some of
which have attained considerable fame.
The Rubinstein club, Of New York city, is
composed entirely Of ladies, but was organ
lied chiefly by Mr.. William r. Chapman.
Modern Savonic composers have produced
many pieces suited for female voices exclu-
sively, and so the club appropriately took the
name of the greatest Of Slavonic composers.
At its first public rendition sixty-six ladies
took part, the audience, at Chickering hall,
being composed only Of invited friends of the
singers. The opera Of Nero" as rendered
by the National Opera company, was more
purely professional and excited an enthusiasm
which led Americans to consider Rubinstein
the greatest Of composers in that line and
Nero" as the greatest Of his works.

THE OLD WAR HORSE coMANCHE
The cut which is given here was engraved
from photograph recently taken by Mr.. J.
c. II. Grabill, of Deadwood, D. 7. At the
time the picture was taken Comanche was
slick and happy. He is now at Fort Riley,
Kan, and was recently reported to be In
good condition.
About twenty-five years ago Comanche
entered the government service and was =
cavalry horse in Kansas He was engaged
in several bloody fights between the govern
ment troops and the Indians, and in one of
wounded He went to Nebraska from Kan
sas, and thence to Dakota.
In the Custer campaign Comanche honora-
bly, distinguished himself and carried his
master, Capt. Keogh, one Of Clusters officers,
through many desperate brush with the
Indians Keogh, who was riding Comanche
In the battle Of the Little Big Horn was shot
early in the fight and fell from his saddle A
complete ring of savages made it impossible
for any OF the soldiers or even their horses to
escape, but when the former left the field
they supposed that horses and men were all
dead.
This was true Of all but Comanche who,
wounded by many bullets and bleeding pro-
fusely, had succeeded in reaching brook,
where he was found some time after by Maj.
Reno's men. He was standing in the water,
mournfully gazing at the battle ground His
legs were swollen to an enormous size, and his
sufferings were SO great that, to end his
misery, he was ordered to be shot. The orders
we're recalled, however, and everything was
done to save him. He was very kindly
treated and his wounds slowly healed.
After his return to Dakota Col. Sturgis, of
the Seventh United States cavalry, issued an
order that the horse known as Comanche
should be matter Of special pride and solicit
tude on the part Of every member Of the
Seventh cavalry, in order to prolong his life
to the utmost limit. Also, that on all occa-
sions of ceremony, Comanche, saddled,
bridled, draped in mourning and led by
mounted trooper Of Company /, would be
paraded with the regiment.
Comanche has many scars on his body, but
be does not seem to be suffering. He is very
faithfully cared for, and no one is allowed to
mount him.

America, at ball in Washington and were
married in lS42. After the ceremony young
Parnell returned with his bride to Ireland
and settled down at Avondale, County Wick
low, spot which has been immortalized by
Thomas Moore-the "Sweet Vale Of Avoca."
She Immediately found place in the hearts
of the peasantry in and about Wicklow. She
passed many of her leisure hours in the cot
tages and devoted herself, so far as she was
able, to bettering the condition Of the poor.
The awful famine Of 1S47 affected her power
fully, and even now the tourist in the sunny
glens Of Wicklow" is sure to hear tales of her
noble conduct during that trying ordeal
She played an important though quiet part
in the Fenian troubles of 1S65-G7, in many in
stances proving herself a friend who could be
trusted to the unfortunate veterans Of the
Union army who went to Ireland to join In
the proposed ''rising."
Her residence in Ireland continued for
some time after her husbands death and I'M
til her children were educated. Her return
to America was caused by a clause in her
fathers will. The damp climate of Ireland
too, as she advanced in years, had an unfavor-
able effect upon her health.
The Parnell family is of Anglo Norman
origin and originally located in Cheshire.
They settled in Ireland in the time of Crom-
well, but their estate at Avondale was &C.
quired by purchase, not by confiscation. The
old property in Cheshire is still in the posses
sion Of one of the family, second cousin of
Charles Steward Parnell, Lord Congleton.
The famous poet Parnell, Of the days Of Pope
and Dryden, was also member Of the fam
lily. ~g.e

Babies I'm California.

At one time woman could hardly walk
through the streets of San Francisco without
having every one pause and gaze on her, and
a child was so rare that once in theatre in
the same city where a woman had taken her
infant, when it began TO cry, just as the or
chestra began to play, man in the pit cried
out: stop those flddles and let the baby cry.
l haven't heard such sound for ten years u
The audience applauded this sentiment, the
orchestra stopped and the baby continued its
performance amid unbounded enthusiasm -

ANTON RUBlNSTEIN,
The Famous Pianist Whose Jubilee Year
Is Approaching.

Is approaching.
Anton Rubinstein's friends are about to
celebrate his jubilee-the fiftieth anniversary
Of his first great success as pianist. He had
appeared before the public occasionally for u
year or more before, but his jubilee dates
from his success at Paris at tho aye If 10,
and Car Alexander has lately congratulated
him by telegram as the greatest Of Russian
musicians.
Rubinsten was born Nov. 80, 1880, In an
obscure village on the southern border OF
Russia, He is of pure lsraelitish stock, but
was reared rs Christian, and at very
early age evinced his wonderful talents. He
was first taught the piano by Alexis Villoing
at Moscow, and made his first public APP
pearance at the age of s. He next moved to
Paris and received instruction and cordial
encouragement from the Able List. He
afterwards made tours in England, Sweden
and Germany, taught in Berlin and became
famous as a composer, after which he took
up his residence in Russia. In 1868 he re-
sumed his travels, and in 1873 visited the
United States.
Rubinstein has at various times produced
compositions of almost every class but is

WHAT is IT?

A Big Bone That Is Puzzling the Folks at
Block Island.
A man walking along the beach of Block
Island not many days ago saw something
white sticking up out of the sand. Upon ex-
animation it proved to be the petrified bone
of some huge animal. 1t was dug up out of
the sand and deposited in front of photog-
raphers, where it now lies, the object of
curious eyes. 1t bears the following inscrip-
tom
"This immense bone was found on Crescent
beach, ten feet below water, partly buried in
the sand. Weight, 500 pounds when wet.
Five scientists held a consultation and all de-
cided that it must have been the hip bone Of
a mastodon, an extinct animal twice as large
as an elephant that lived before the food.
This bone is petrified and is in good state Of
preservation for its age"

A story is told Of an American plutocrat

nothing struck him so much as the velvety
turf in one of the quadrangles. He asked for
the gardener, and made minute inquiries as
to the method of laying down and maintain
ing the grass. That's all, is itr' he exclaim-

WOMAN WITH A HISTORY
THE MOTHER OF CHARLES STEW
ART PARNElL.

Her Health Is Said to BE Failing-Brief
Sketch of Her Carecr-The Daughter Of
"Old Ironsides," AS the American Com
modore Stewart Was Called.
Among the many women OF prominence
for whom America has formed home, few
are better known to the people of both hemis-
pheres than Mrs. Della Tudor Stewart Par
nell. For many years she was power in the
Irish National League movement in the
United States, and she became as well known
on the platform as any Of tho male speakers
for that cause.
She early in life showed that she had great
force Of character, and exquisite culture and
tact. During her residence in Ireland and
subsequent visits she gained thorough
knowledge Of the complicated mechanism Of
British politics, which she used to great ad-
vantage In her efforts as Nationalist.
Her father was the famous Commodore
Stewart, of the American navy, figure that
stands out in bold relief as the "Old Iron
sides" of history. The name was perpetuated
in Mrs. Parnell's beautiful home overlooking
the Delaware near Bordentown, n. ]. He

A BRAVE WAR HORSE.

COmanche, a PensiOner, and Sole Survivor
of the Custer Massacre.
Probably there is no beast in the United
States that leads a life Of more perfect bliss
than Comanche, the brave war horse and sole
survivor of the Custer massacre. He is a
pensioner and is fed on the choicest of hay
and oats. Lumps of sugar are frequently
given him to sweeten his declining years
