Ether Displacing ChforofOrm.

DR.. Roger Williams has made a careful ex-
animation of the hospital books, from which
it appears that in ten years chloroform was
administered at st. Bartholomew's L, 36S
times with fatal results i'll ten cases, being
about one i'll 1856. The most important re-
suit of DR.. Williams Investigations, however,
is the discovery that when ether instead of
chloroform had been used during the same
period there were only three deaths out of
1851 instances. DR.. Williams tells us he
has long been aware of the greater safety OF
ether, and he declares his belief thai this is
the conclusion towards which professional
opinion is steadily moving.

A Rather Grewsome BANQUET,

The undertakers' assistants of San Francis
co recently held a banquet which had about
it many grewsome features. The stage of
Metropolitan temple was cauopied with black
and white, and two white collins appeared
upon a black velve background with this
sentiment above: Eat, drink and be merry,
for tomorrow we die" Over the center Of
the platform hung an Illuminated skull and
cross bones. A draped casket bore the in
scription: ''At rest: Dan McGinty," and a
placard on the walls read: "What is home
without a cough inT The menu card, in
shape like a coffin lid, offered such delicacies
as chicken dressed a Ia shroud, s,nelts served
on a stretcher; beef, Undertakers' association
style; tomatoes stewed a Ia grippe, ham a la
morgue, and SO on. The lively young men
who were present seem to nave cast off their
professional load of woe for the occasion and
to have gone a little too far beyond the
natural and healthy limit Of merriment.

New Years, 1752, the Duke of Hamilton
proposed to Elizabeth, then a stately woman
Of 10, and was accepted. The engagement
was of the briefest, for the duke insisted on
immediate marriage, reused a bishop from
slumber, overcame all obstacles and became
the husband Of the enhancing Elizabeth at
1880 a. m. in Mayfair chapel. The haste and
impetuosity with which the affair was hur-
ried on may be imagined from the fact that
the wedding ring was the slide of a bed
curtain. The new peeress that night entered
on a career of uninterrupted prosperity. She
became lady Of the bedchamber to Queen
Charlotte, the mother Of two dukes of Ham
ilton, was made a baroness in her own right,
and, after her husbands death, by a second

front by merit alone s her surprising charms
was Emma Lyqe6 ne owed nothing to a
mothers SIS and care, as did the
Gunningss was simply and wholly a
child of the slums, the offspring of a house
maids intrigue, and o cast Off waif Of the
streets. Her girlhood was passed amid all
the surroundings Of abject poverty and ire
deemable vice. At 10 she was a nursery
maid, immature, but already showing prom
ise Of great beauty. DR.. Graham, a notori-
Gus quack of the day, picked her out of the
gutter, and utilized her in his lectures on
health, the half clad girl posing before her
employers audiences as the goddess Hygeia.
After this the painter Romney grew infatu-
ated with her, and placed on numerous can
vases delineations of her glorious form and
features.
She abandoned Romney to become the wife
of a middle aged scholar named Greville, and
under his tuition stored her mind with a great
variety of learning and accomplishments.
Now, fully equipped for her battle with the
world, she deserted her husband, secured q
divorce, and married Sir William Hamilton,
the ambassador of Great Britain at the court
of Naples. The chronicles of that day are
filled with accounts of her social triumphs,
her keen wit and intelligence, and her superb
beauty. She held her own, despite her past,
at the court of st. James and OH the contin-
emit, until one morning there sailed into port,
after victory over England's foes, the famous
Lord Nelson. The complications arising from
her subsequent acquaintance with the great
admiral barred her from respectable circles,
and a few years after Nelson's death she

Lawrence also painted a portrait of Lady
Elizabeth Cover, who in 1919 married Earl
Grosvenor, eldest son of the Marquis of West
minister. She became in due course of time
Lady Westminster, and lived to a great old
age, preserving, even to the last, traces of the
loneliness which distinguished her youth.
Americans generally are familiar with the
romance surrounding the family of Baltimore
Bonapartes. It was a notable event when the
belle of the Monumental city married the
brother of the French ruler and, as the papers
of the time declared, "cemented the alliance
between the countries of Washington and La
fayette." But the first consul did not propose
that his imperial plans should be disturbed BY
an alliance Of this sort, and refused to regard
lis brother Jerome's regal wife as anything
save Miss Patterson. The divorce which he
insisted on caused a rupture between Napo-
leon and Plus VII, and the Baltimore beauty,
insisting that she was and would remain Nine.
Jerome Bonaparte, crossed the seas and des-
pite her marital separation shone in foreign
society as a bright particular star for years.
She returned to America in 1884 and ended
her life in her native city.
One Of the lovely women of u past gener-
alton well worthy Of mention is Elizabeth K.
Monroe, the wife of James Monroe, for eight
years president of the United States. Her
maiden name was Kort1ight, and her father
had been a captain in the British army. Mr..
Monroe, when he secured her hand, was a
congressman from Virginia. The wedding
took place in 1856, and from the hour when
their fortunes were joined at the altar Mrs.
Monroe, by her grace, her charm of manner
and her tact, greatly aided the future president
in conciliating foes, making friends and cary
ing out a career. They lived much abroad,
for he was minister to France and then to
England, and afterward at home the lady's
social duties included those which devolve
upon the wife of a secretary Of state and the
chief executive Of a republic. She was a
handsome woman and she had brains.

OF Interest to Photographers.

1t has recently been discovered that sui
phate of quinine possesses the power of rem
dering light non-actinic, and that a plate of
white ground glass, which has been covered
with a strong solution and allowed to dry,
may be used in the photographic lantern in
stead of that of the ordinary ruby color,
says Popular Science News. We have re-
Gently seen a bromide print developed by the
non-actinic white light produced in this
manner, which was perfectin every way and
did not show the slightest trace of Jogging.
If future trials show the method to be a
practical one, the use of red light in photog.
raphy will become a thing of the past.

Beauty-the beauty Of w~oman-has its place
In history side by side with the recorded deeds
OF the sage, the hero, the statesman and the
thinker. The once read story of the siege of
Troy leaves stronger recollection on the mind
OF the surprising loneliness Of Helen than Of
the stormy valor of Achilles; in the age of
Grecian glory Phryne's charms shine out as
clearly as the mighty deeds of Alexander,
and Cleopatra, the sorceress Of the Nile, has
more security of unending fame than the man
who drove her and Antony to death and
founded the long line of Roman Cnsars.
"ln praise Of ladies dead" the historian has
not been singular or alone. Around the form
OF beauty the poet has woven the magic spell
OF romantic verse, and, bowling to the general
decree, the sculptor has fashioned his block of
marble along the lines of female grace, while
the painter has more than wed with each and
all to make his canvas the medium for the i'm
mortality of loneliness.

LADY HAMILTON,

Perhaps the power of beauty was never
better illustrated thar in the last century by
the career of Elizabeth Cunning. She was
the daughter of a poor Irish squire, John
Cunning, of Castle Coote, Rosconmon, in
~Connaught. The family was ruined and ap-
parently without resource. But yet there
was a resource left, and Mrs. Cunning dis
covered it. 1t was the beauty Of Elizabeth
and her sister Maria. By desperate exertions
the mother secured enough money to take
her daughters to Dublin. There the kindness
Of Peg Wellington furnished them with in
vitations to a grand ball at the castle, and
with dresses to wear ON the occasion. The
maidens gre " famous in a night and were
the toast of the town. More money was
raised, and in 1850 they went to London.
Society received the wild Irish girls" with
open arms,
Bismarck weekly tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1884-1943, 1890-05-23

passed away at Calais, to which town she fled
to avoid her London creditors.
Still another woman who was the toast of
her day had the fortune to be blessed in her
youth with beauty, and also inherited rank.
She was "of tho purple" and knew nothing
Of obstacles such as those which Elizabeth
Cunning and Emma Lyon were compelled to
overcome. Victoria Maria Luisa was the
fourth daughter of the Duke of Sake Cobourg
Saalfield. Born in 17S6, she married when
II years old the Prince Of Leiningen. He
died in 1914, and in 1918 his widow welded
the Duke of Kent, fourth son of George III
of England. The next year Victoria, present
queen Of Great Britain, was born to the pair.
The picture of the Duchess of Kent herewith
given is from a painting by Lawrence, and
shows her highness when 80 years of age, and
at the zenith Of her attractiveness.

CHICAGO, May 17.-Some more vigor-
GUS rate cutting of western passenger
rates was INDUCED in to-day. The Chi
cago & Northwestern road led off with a
notice of a So rate, for first
class, between Chicago and st. Paul, to
go into effect Monday. This rate is 50
below that of the Milwaukee & st. Paul.
The Burlington system continued the
war with vtgor. It announced a SIS rate
from st. Louis to Denver which is a
lower rate than any other road has yet
made. That road also gave notice of a
81 rate from St. Louis to Minneapolis
and st. Paul. Trans Missouri rates was
further cut into by the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe. That road announced a 81
rate from Kansas City, Leavenworth,
Atkinson and st. Joseph to Pueblo, Col.
and Denver, making this basis of rates
to all railway points south of La Junta.
This was a clear cut of $3.50. The Illi-
nois Central announces a Sc rate from
Chicago to st. Louis and a So rate to
Springfield. The Missouri Pacific n
nounced a ST rate from Kansas City to
Omaha and 50 rate from st. Louis to
Omaha. The Chicago, st. Paul &
Kansas City road to-day gave notice that
it would reduce the rate between Chica-
go and Des Moines from $1O.15 to 1886
the reduction to apply in both directions
This is cutting into the local territory
which has been so jealousy guarded by
the Missouri river lines, and will prove
particularly a hard blow to the Rock U.s.
land, which has gone SO far as to advance
it's Missouri river rates in order to pro-
tect the evenu on the intermediate
local traffic.
