comrades. Morgan grasped it, but those at
the other end were unable to haul both
ashore. Some one yelled to Morgan to
save himself, but he spurned the advice, and
to cheer his companion said, 81 jumped in
here to save you, and will do it or we will
go down together"
There was one final supreme effort. The
ice broke in their hands, and as they sank
back Morgan's grasp on the strap slipped.
Even then he could have saved himself
alone but he would not. Calling to his
friends on the bank he cried II can hold
out no longer. Tell Paul's father I did all
| could to save his boy. Tell the folks
goodby. 1t is all right with me-"
Scarce had the last word been uttered
when the waters closed over them, and as
the young hero had said, ''they went down
together"
The funeral of the two boys was held at
the same time and place on the Sunday
following, and was attended by over 1900
people. Young Morgan was praised on
every side, and thinking that his self sac
rifice should be commemorated, the Win
field Courier started fund to erect mon
ument in his memory. Already over 5000
have been raised, which amount will no
doubt be more than doubled, as contribu-
tions are daily being received from all
parts of the country.

A NOTABLE FRENCH WEDDING.

The Marriage of Leon Daudet to Mile.
Jeanne Hugo.
Jeanne Hugo, granddaughter of the
great Hugo, has married Leon Dandet,
son of Alphonse Daudet, and all Paris is
doeply interested, not to say excited. Nor
is this surprising, as this marriage not
only joins two of the most noted families
in France, but combines unusual elements
in society, literature and Republican
politics. Nearly 500 officials were in
vited, of others twice as many as could
get into the little ball room of the dis
trict mayoralty, and the list included all
the eminent Republicans of France.
Jeanne and her older brother George
were the infants Of whom Victor Hugo
wrote SO charmingly and so frequently
that his compositions relating to them
form a considerable volume called Lies
Enfants." This was followed by ssThe
Art of Being Grandfather" Jeanne
was the favorite-the infant queen.
The bridegroom is only a little less cele-
brated on account of his fathers writ
ings, and has lately completed his studies
for the practice of medicine; and finally
the brides stepfather, M. Lockroy, was
the premier deputy of Paris and an
active Republican. The presence of
Nine. Carnot, wife of the president, and
all the cabinet ministers and their wives,
made the occasion one Of extraordinary
interest, and few journalists gently

Death Rather Than a Hospital.

Here and there may be found persons
who have dread of that great triumph of
modern civilization the hospital. They

constant attention that a hospital affords
Prejudice of this sort is responsible for the
death of Jersey City woman, who at noon
the other day was seen at a window on the
third floor of a Manhattan avenue tene-
ment. The next moment she threw up the
sash and plunged headlong down into the
yard Some of the neighbors ran to her
assistance and carried her into room on
the lower floor. She died soon afterward
She was Mrs Pauline House, aged thirty
five. She lived with her husband and one
child, ten years old, in the apartments on
the third floor. She had been suffering for
a long time with acute infammatory rheu-
matism. DR.. Nevin advised that she be
taken to a hospital
Her husband. who is poor, tried to per-

strenuously objected. So she sent out to a

In November, 1865, the seat of the Mexi-

perial general, Miramon, previously presi-
dent of Mexico, but at this time brave
and jealous supporter of Maximilian, hast
ened with small force from the City OF
Mexico, marching through Queretaro and
recruiting on the way. I was at Queretaro
with the remnant of my blacks awaiting
orders. Miramon had heard of the storm
ing by the Egyptians at Oaxaca. and also
of their exploit at Catorze, and in conse-
quence he made me commander OF his body
guard, numbering about seventy men and
comprising loyal Mexicans, several Ger
mans and few Frenchmen. MY blacks

Chcvalier Paraf's Wonderful Swindles.
His Son Now in Jail.
Believers in the doctrines of heredity
and of natural depravity will find food for
contemplation in the case of Alfred Paraf,
the grandson of an honorable and wealthy
New York lawyer, and the son of one Of
the cleverest swindlers of the century.
The story is strange, and not without an
element of instruction and warning. In
1867 G. Banbridge Smith, now retired, was
a prosperous attorney in active practice.
His daughter, Leila, had just entered So
ciety, and was considered one of the most
beautiful buds in New York city. Mr.
Smiths home life was an ideal one, and in
every respect the popular legal adviser
seemed favorite of fortune.

The Parents Wont to the Theater.

Here is another warning for those care

years old, were partly burned and partly
suffocated to death in their home, at All
West Huron street, Chicago, few days
ago. Their parents put them to bed at Z
O'Clock and then went to the theater. BY
the explosion of kerosene lamp the house
took fire, but the flames were not noticed
until nearly midnight. A fireman rushed
into the burning residence and carried out
the children, but before doctor could ar

THE QUEEN OF HAWAII.

She In q Dlgnified, Stately Woman OF Edu-
cation AM Experience.
The queen of Hawaii, who has as
cended the throne in succession to the
late king; is not wholly inexperienced,
as she had on several occasions acted as
regent in the absence of the king. In
deed, says the Chicago Journal, she was
so acting when he died. She rejoices in
the name of Lydia Kamehameha Lili-
nolkalani, and was born in 1883. Her
relationship to the Kamehamehas, the
first kings of the united Hawaiian
islands, Is through her mother. 1t is
an old native law that legitimacy Tor
the right to be royaD is derived from the
female, and not from the male, as in
European countries. The queen, who
was poor claimed heir-apparcnt to the
throne on April IL, 1877, is morganatic-
ally married, her husband, Lieut. Gen.
John Owen Dolninis, being q governor
of one of the islands. The new ruler
is tall in stature and dignifed in man
ner. The new queen is a woman of
much strength of character, is intel
lectual, well read, and, in fact, clever.
She speaks English hucntly .-.-.-
