in Paris and London, where she became
great social favorite. Her life during
these years seems to have been above
rpproach In 1910 she returned to
Washington and lived quietly until
Mi. Eaton's death. This second Ninon
de l'Enclos, at the age of siXty-one, met
and fell in love with the fascinating
Italian Buchignani, who in 1857 was
teaching music and languages in Wash
ington. He was then twenty-three
years old, and, although Peggy had
passed her prime, she was still hand
some woman, and it may be that he
loved her. AT any rate, they were
married, and it was the browning
folly of Peggy O'Neill's life. One of
her daughters had married DR.. Ran
dolph, of Virginia, and had borne him a
daughter, who was named Emily. 1t
was this very Emily Randolph, then a
lovely girl of eighteen, who inspired in
the heart of the Italian genuine love
passion, She returned it. He had
quickly grown weary of Peggy, and
Peggy was disappointed in him. The
young people forgot everything but
their love, and ran away together.
Sumed the name of Eaton. She died
1879 at the ripe old age OF eighty-three.
Buchignani and Emily were legally
married, and lived together in perfect
happiness until the death of the latter,
eight years ago. During the first years
of their married life they visited to-
gether the capitals of Europe where the
woman who was the grandmother of
the one, and who had been the wife of
the other once reigned a social queen.
Does history afford a parallel to this?

most valuable along Oil creek. Mrs.
McClintock survived her husband sew
eral years, and when she died, in 1865,
the adopted son, Steele, became the sole
heir to ner property.
He soon concluded to see some of the
world with his wealth and he saw it.
He sought notoriety and he got it. He
spent his money like a man with Monte
Cristo backing-was bled by leeches,
fleeced bv sharpers. and in few years,
his oil interests in the meantime rap
idly depreciating in value, he soon
found himself again poor man. But
no one ever heard him express partic-
ular regret over the return he received
fer his money.
AT one time when he was highest in
his eccentric extravagances, Capt. J;
j. Vandergrlft. L. II. Williams and
expostulated with him on the point
that he ought to save some of his
money. He thanked them for their
friendly advice, but said that he had
made living by hauling oil, and could
do it again If necessary. He couldn't
rest until he had spent that fortune.
Ultimately he got the required rest.
A cousin of Mr.. Steele maintains that
the estimates which have been put
upon Steele's wealth have not, as a gen
eral thing, been exaggerated. He says
that he personally knows that when
Mrs. McClintock died Steele inherited
Sf25,000 in gold and about 100000 in
other money. The income from his
wells then was from $1,000 to $1,000 Il
day. The cousin says that, from his
knowledge of Steele'S affairs, he should
say that at one time Goal Oil Johnny"
could have produced Sl,000.0O in cash.

This eventful day was some seven
years ago when, as the shades of night
were falling fast, he entered the city of
Durango, Col, barefooted, hungry, I'M
kempt and sorely disheartened, and
with only a few boarded dollars in his
clothes. He hunted up bakery and
was promptly given employment. At
the end of the tenth day his boss took
the silver fever, and sold out TO Harry,
and he found himself in the possession
of an oven, long-handled peel. half a
dozen pans, two sacks of flour, and
enough yeast to set one batch. In a
month he was fairly prospecting, and at
the end of a year he was looking around
for something to invest his surplus capt.
tai i'm. This materialZed in the shape
OF a tract of fifty-tive acres of land just
outside the then city limits, and was
not considered particularly valuable.
He bought 1t and waited. Silver mining
became great pursuit in the surround
ing mountains. Durango grew aud be-
came the seat of supplies for the thou
sands of prospectors hunting for silver
lodes. The growth of the town was
phenomenal, and grew over Harry'S
tifty-five acres, and the chaparral farm
increased in value He built half
dozen brick houses, and fine three
story brick for his bakery business and
for wife he took about the time of the
boom. He now controls the entire
bakery trade of the city, and handles
vast quantities of flour and mercantile
hardware. Fifty thousand dollars would
not induce him to part with his posses
sions today, and the Darefooted tramp
who entered Durango seven years ago
is now recognized as one of the city's
most substantial and progressive citi-

Mrs. John Steele, of Ashland. Neb..
has been here on a visit for the past
week. Mrs. Steele is the wife of man
to whom the discovery of petroleum in
Pennsylvania gave wider reputation
than any other man, and one concern
ing whom many true stories and many
noble lies have been told. He is none
other than the famous Goal Oil John

Housewife, this county, and who now
has farm near the Nebraska town

Dispatch.
Mrs. Steele was given an opportunity
to correct in an interview some of the
ARABIAN Nights" tales told about her
husbands eccentric actions in the days
when he was reported millionaire and
when his source of wealth seemed limit
less. She had been wearled long ago by
exaggerated interviews with her hus-
band and herself and declined 10 talk,
but the following interesting points
were obtained from all authentic source.
The wealth of Mr.. Steele has undoubt-
edly been overrated-that is to say, his
wealth in cash.
At the time the Pittsburg sanitary
commission made an offer to donate a

REVENGE UPON HIMSELF.
ArkansaW Traveller.

Arkansaw Traveller.
My revenge was terrible. l had been
cruelty wronged, however, and can
scarcely be blamed for what did. For
the purposes of this narrative, l will
call myself Luke Gilbert. l am native
of Coventry, in England, and went to
Australia to improve my prospects in
life. The other man, the reader must
know, was Victor Lambert, native Of
New York city. had been an old and
trusted employee in Gerald's large jew
elry establishment at Staunton, Aus
tfalia, and was greatly esteemed by my
employer, a man well advanced in
years. When Lambert came he pre-
scented unimpeachable references. he
was a tall, handsome fellow, with a
captivating manner, and it was not long
before he became favorite with every
one.
Iineyer liked him from the first, and l
liked him less when he innocently won
away from Inc the affections of Amy
Gerald, girl | had loved with passion
ate idolatry from early childhood. Often
had she entwined her white arms around
my neck, and, nesting her pretty face
upon my breast, vowed that she held
me dearer than any other on earth; and
| when he came she was wearing ring
HAD given her as pledge of betrothal.
| But, after Lambert had been with us a
little over a year, her manner grew
| strangely cold to me; and one night
when l called to see her, she told me,
| with great tears standing in her eyes.
| that she had been mlstaken-she had
never really loved me; and what she
had felt for me was only esteem and
| friendship, and she added. as she
| handed me back my ring:
Luke, you will forgive me, won't
you, and still be my friend?"

he said in scarcely audible voice:
"FOr heavens sake, Luke, have mercy
on me! You surely would not blight
my life and hers? Give me chance,
Luke, only chance"
No" l said, in cold, hard voice,

late to think of that
He looked at me with an expression
of mute despair. Then he turned and
strobe from the room, mutteriag as he
went:
"Heaven have mercy on us-have pity
on us''
A faintness cane over me, and l
stood, know not how long, in dazed
and helpless manner.
Presently | was aroused by people en-
tering and calling for Victor. He could
not be found, and the train in which the
bridal party was to leave would start in
twenty minutes. All was excitement
and hustle. in the midst of which SER

open and read it. Suddenly she
swayed to ard fro, and, before assist

to the floor. In few seconds she lay

happy bride. picked up the note that
had fallen from her hand, and read:
Il am going, heaven only knows
where. My life is ruined. l shall never
return. DO not seek me. Good-by.
"VICTOR."
No one knew of the part had played
in the tragedy of that awful day. Ter
rible, indeed, was my revenge.
Years passed by. At the death of the
old man Gerald | became proprietor of
his establishment. L left my place of
business only long enough each day to
visit AmY's grave.
One winters morning 1 started out to
make my accustomed visit. AS l turned

startled to see lying at full length upon
the grave where Amy Gerald was sleep

was snowy white, fell over his Shout
