A TpAoro ROMANCE.
Jeanne chsvaiisz Loses Her Lover and
Commits Suicide.

Commits Suicide.
PARIS, jan. fe.-By the La Cham
payne there returned to France Hewlett
Guard Eustis, of the independent coach
last summer. He was accompanied by
Jeanne Chevalier, the woman with
whom he has had liaison of several
years duration. who went with him to
America. On their arrival Howlett's
father insisted that he should break Off
all connection with Jeanne.
Yielding 20 parental pressure Hewlett
consented and finally informed her of
the stern necessity. Jeanne was seen
wandering about the Champs Elysees.
Finally she took cab and gave direc-
tions to be driven to Howlett's stables,
where she asked to see her lover. The
father received her and demonstrated
with her.
Then she drove to gunsmith's, pur-
chased revolver, and went to cafe in
the Boulevard Houssman. She wrote to
Howlett's father, asking pardon for the
scene at the stable, and announced her
intention Of destroying herself, and
begged that he would permit his son to
follow her body to its last resting place.
1t was now in the evening, and re-
turning to the cab she drove to How
let's residence, and sent the coachman
to deliver the letter. When the coach
man returned he found Jeanne dead in
the carriage. She had shot herself
through the temple. In her lap was
her pet dog, who was licking his mis-
tress' wound.

ONLY ONE CARDINAL LEFT.

And He Is Mt the Point OF Death.
A Successor to Manning-The Pub
lie Reassured as to the Health of
the Queen-Other Old World News
Notes OF Interest.
LONDON, Jan. 1s.-England had four
cardinals; now she has one, death hav-
ing taken Maccabe, Newman and Man.
ming. Cardinal De Howard is afflicted
with an incurable disease and may die
at any time. The vatican intends to
take the utmost immediate action, and
after consultation with the English gov
eminent at least two cardinals will be
nominated at the Easter consistory.
Mgr. Stoner is the first choice for
Manning's place. He is a persona
grata with the Prince Of Wales and the
royalty generally, and has great social
influence. His foremost opponent is DR..
Herbert Vaughn, bishop Of Stafford. He
is not unlike Stonor, for he is diplomatic
and has strong social influence at his
back, and he also has the strongest Cath
Ole diocese in England, and he works in
harmony with the Anglican bishop of
of the river from Stafford.
Funeral arrangements.
Cardinal Manning will be buried
Thursday, at Kensal Green. This was
decided as soon as the communication
was received from Sandringham, saying
Clarence would be buried ON Wednes-
day. The public was admitted to the
archbishop's house, at Westminster, to
the lying in state of the cardinal on
Saturday afternoon. The room where
the cardinal lies was the room in which
the cardinal always received Populations.
The body of the cardinal will be removed
tomorrow evening to the oratory at
Prompton, where the coffin will lie in
state on Wednesday. The funeral SER
vice will take place on Thursday. The
sermon will be preached by Bishop Hege-
ley. of Newport, while requiem mass
will be sung by the bishop of Clifton.
The Queens Health Good.
1t has been ascertained that the queen
remains in good health. She personally
dictated to the Earl of Lathom, the
Lord Chamberlain, her orders in REGARD
to the state mourning.
General disappointment was expressed
yesterday, when it became known that
the body of the Duke of Clarence would
not be brought to London, but would be
conveyed from the palace at Sandring
ham to the chapel Windsor. This il
said to have been decided upon at the
instance of the Princess of Wales, who
was opposed to having her sons funeral
made the occasion of public parade
through the streets of London.

The ePhiInsonhicalFad.

Possibly it is the lingering influence
of the Puritan maxim that whatever is
pleasurable is wrong, and that rest is
Incidence, that impels the American to
make his vacation a change Of occupa-
ton, and to seek to Improve every
moment of his time. Certainly in no
other way can we account for the deter
mination with which the man or woman
who ought to bathe his or her tired
mind in rest irritates it with lectures,
and plunges into summer schools as if
they were summer pools. The tired
school teacher, who ought to bend all
his energies to doing nothing, will sit
for hours on a bench in grove to listen
to a college professor, who ought to be
idle, too, lecture on Plato's self efface-
ment or Socrates's synthesis.
We have not the slightest desire to
disparage the excellence of such sum-
mer schools; we only point to their sue
cess as indicating development of the
national temperament and the national
desire for Improvement. Possibly at
tendance ON them is only compromise
between this temperament and the
human craving for rest, and that the
man who sits apparently wrapt in ad-
miration OF Professor rStrawthrasher's an
alvsis of Plato's self effacement is send
ing his thoughts far distant and is really
resting them in way very uncompli-
mentary to that learned lecturer. Let
us hope he is.-Boston Transcript.

How a chamelon Looks.

Upon crimson cloth the chameleon
becomes almost crimson; move il upon
a gray surface and the bright tints will
quickly subside. But at night, whether
disturbed or not, it invariably assumes
its palest tints. Two which caught in
the Cape Town garden, which were Of
very brilliant metallic green, were splen-
didly decorated. On the back or sides.
sometimes saddlewise and sometimes
lengthwise, were slashes of red. The
markings vary in the individuals. The
crest and decorations on the head and
back are like fretwork, the whole body
and limbs are dotted with very fine
warts or tubercles like shagreen, and
when angry all these distinctive fea-
lures are exaggerated, the gills and
crest are swelled, and the skin of the
chin is puffed out SO as to show white
stripes, while the creature opens its
mouth wide, displaying the yellow,
feshy interior, and closing its teeth on
your finger should you provoke 1t to do
so-Cor Forest and Stream.

Chem,cal Eneot of Liehtning.

Lightning works chemically as well
as mechanically. 1t has the power of
developing a peculiar odor, which has
been v..riously compared to that of phos-
phorus, nitrous gas and most frequently
burning sulphur. Wafer mentions a
storm on the Isthmus of Darien which
diffused such sulphurous stencil
through the atmosphere that he and his
:narauding companions could scarcely
draw their breath, particularly when
they plunged into the wood. The Brit
ish ship Montague was once struck by
globular lightning, which left such a
satanic SAVIOR behind it that the vessel
seemed nothing but sulphur, and every
man was suffocating.
About year ago the newspapers re-
corded similar experience Of the crew
of another English ship while crossing
the north Pacific from China to the
States. In this case the crew had to
take to the rigging to prevent being
choked by the sulphur fumes.-Cham-
bers' Journal.
