LntrsL NrraInn. /.


Latest Version.
NEW YoRK, April l0.-Thc announce
ment that Miss Babcttc Fleischmann,
the Cincinnati hcircss, had Tilted her
titled lover, the Count Logothctti, ere.
ated CONSERVATION among tho family
here. Miss Flciscllmann has spent tho
last two summers at the country home
Of Louis Floisclmann, her uncle, near
tho Grand Hotel, In Delaware county,
and his city residence ut No. 10 East
S~evcnty.third street. She Is q great
favorltc in tho family and when sho was
betrothcd 10 tho count tho eastern
branch OF tho family rcjoiccd. Tho
breaking OF tho engagement docs not
seem to surprise them, but it Is serious
enough to have caused Louis Fleiscll-
mann TO be summoned by telegraph to
Cincinnati. He will stop in Buffalo on
the way and confer with relatives there.
When tho count camo 10 this
try he brought letters OF introduction to
various prominent families in tins city,
including Mr.. Fleischnann, OF the Broad.
way cafe and restaurant, adjoining
Grace church, and tho Elavcmcycrs.
Mr.. F%lcischmann was formerly in tho
Austrian army and knew tho counts
family.
Tho count was widely introduced and
liked. Lis ancestors belonged to tho
former royal family OF Greece, and havo
been for moro than a century promi-
nentin Hungary.
Tho count is finely educated and
cultivated, but has no money. lie
secured employment with tho Flcisch.
manns, and eventually became manager
OF tho Chinese house. When he was
bcsrothod to Mics ~l}arhetto Fleisch-
mann in November last there was q
magnificent feast, which was tho great
est social event OF tho kind Cincinnati
had ever seen. The eastern family went
IN a special car. But Miss "Det." rs she
is known, seems to have led the count n
merry dance, ii her eastern relatives are
right in the statements.
a member OF the family explained
the falling out this way: "Bet is a gay,
v%ivacious girl and likes company. She
has grown up among q crowd OF young
fellows whom sho has always known.
1t was Hello, Bot with them. While
the count was in Chicago Miss Bot
went to parties and operas. It's Il lit.
tie the Western way, you know, but the
count objected. Miss Bet is an Amer
lean girl. and sho secuted his Austria
tian ideas OF what an American girl
should do and. well, this is the result.
We regret very much that il has hap
pcned. We AFRO very fond OF Bet and
the count also. Tic count is poor,
but he seems TO have given up an heir
ess with dignity. I hardly think the
engagement will DO renewed.

the challenge OF "Jin" Hall has an.
gcrcd the latter into saying some caus-
tic things regarding Fitzsiinnpns's
methods, and in an interview to be
printed tomorrow, Hail., among other
things, says:
"Fitzsimmons knows in his heart that

not the manhood to admit it. In our

everything within reason, and ask in

fifteen pounds.
"His twaddle about fighting Sullivan

Why, he would have to allow Sullivan
from sixty to seventy pounds, and even
then would drop dead from fright ii he

and am satisfied to let him fight at any

"All l want is another meeting with
Fitzsimmons to prove ior all time who

story that he was paid to "go out" in

 One time there was a young gote wich felt butty, and there was a ole ram wich lay in the road, half sleep, a chune his cud, says ''Little Johnny, 3 in the San Francisco Examiner. The gote he had been shet up in a paster ol his life, an had never saw ram, an he sed to his sister, the gote did: "You jest stan stil and see me whipe that freek off the face of the erth."
 So the gote he went up before the ram an stompt his feet an shuke his he'd real fritefle, but the ram he didn't git up, but only jest kep a chune his cud and wotched out between his lashes. Bime by the gote he backed of an toke a run, and then arose up in the air an cum down with his he'd on the rams he'd, wack! The gote's head was busted, but the ole ram he never wank his ey. Then the ole ram he smiled gotes sister: "Pears to me, miss, that kangaroo of yourn is mity careless where he lites, he come gum dasted near makin me swoller my cud."

The Cruel Nude Review of His Soldiers
 Winch He Held.
 Emperor Nicholas sent an cquerry to Siberia for life for having mislaid let ter from the king of Prussia, says a writer in the Philadelphia Times. He made four thousand soldiers take off every stitch of clothing and stand naked before him simply because there was a button or two missing to a uniform and it must be remembered that this nude review took place on a day when the cold was so intense that the least exposure meant death to an ordi- nary European-and as for having men and women fogged to death, that was a common form of amusement of his imperial majesty.
 Even for comparatively trivial of fense in Russia, such as intoxication. he would order the delinquent to be passed by the ranks" which meant that every soldier in the regiment, pro yided with a stick on purpose. gave . blow on the back of the culprit as he was slowly dragged down the line. \ fatal hogging, when we consider that regiments in those days were composed of four thousand men.

The Mother of Two CIt'~s-The Birth
 place of Famous len.
 Montreal is, historically speaking, the mother of cities. Here will be marked the birthplace of Bienville, the founder of New Orleans, and the homes of La Salle, of Duluth and of La Mothe Cadillac, founder of Detroit. Here will be shown the eyrie of Mackenzie, dis coverer of the Mackenzie river and first European to cross the Rocky mountains. Dollard lane will have its glorious legend made plain upon it. The ancient town walls will be made easy to follow. The Recollet gate, where Gen. Hull and his army were brought in prisoners, and the Quebec gate, where the same was done with Ethan Allen, will receive tablets.
 The position of the armies at the time of equalization, says the Toronto Week will not be forgotten. Neither will variety of strange traditions, miraculous and horrible-such as the Veronica-like legend of the Percic Maistre, whose head was cut off by Iroquois, but imprinted it's image upon a handkerchief and thereby haunted and addressed them until the conversion of his murderer.

CATFISH THEIR ONLY FOOD.
Negroes of Savannah Catch Loads of
 Them,


 The city of Savannah, Ga., is ad- vantageously situated on the river of the same name, advantageously for some things not set down in geographies orguide books. For instance, the dock laborers there are indulging themselves in the expensive luxury of a strike; and here is where occurs the applica- tion of the advantages overlooked.
 The Savannah river swarms with cat fish. The strikers are nearly all dark ies. The ''wenches'' ask no better enjoyment than to sit on the banks of the stream and catch these catfish, and the ''bucks' esteem catfish nearly as highly as they do watermelon. So it happens that this combination of the river, the colored laborers, the colore3 women, the catfish and the strike threaten to make the shipping business of Savannah experience very bad time. The ddrl1ies are as obstinate as they can well be; they can live at very little expense-thanks to the advan- tages above noted-and they will stand long tussle before they knuckle. All of which is very instructive, as it demonstrates again that no man is ab- solutely help.css until he is fully di- vorced from natural opportunities. Certainly there is better food than cat fish--but on the other hand catfish is better than no food at all.

The American Seaman.

Tn the United States navy the re1a- tions between seaman and officer have in them some touches of democracy. The clean, civil, sober, capable seaman is treated with high degree of consid- eration, and by the system of merit marks that prevail in the service he ob- tains frequent leave and is certain of promotion. Within twenty-five years there has been vast improvement in the conduct of seamen, and Jack ashore is now not always bent on debauch. An old naval story illustrates Jack as he was. Peterson, able seaman, had obtained leave, and the officer gives him a parting admonition to keep sober and return on time. Peterson hears it all in respectful silence, and then, touching his hat says: "Please, sir, then, why should I go ashore?"

HOW HE READ PRAYER.
A Good Story at the Expense of Princ'

A Good Story at the Expense of Prince
 George, of Wales.
 A good story is current in London, says the New York Recorder, concern ing Prince George, of Wales, who was recently in command of the British cruiser Thrush, belonging to the north Atlantic squadron. It was the prince's duty as commander of the vessel to read prayers to the assembled crew every Sunday morning, his secretary reading the lessons.
 One day brother officer ventured to suggest at the irresistible that the cap tain would do well to study the prayers little more.
 ''Why, read 'em every Sunday!" was the princess astonished reply.
 ''Yes, sir; but you do not read them quite correctly" answered the officer.
 ''I don't" exclaimed the prince.
 ''Not quite, sir. You invariably say: We have done those things which we ought to have done, and we have left undone those things which we ought not to have done.' Of course, it is very hattering to us all and the sEip's com pany, but"
 The speaker got no further, for his remarks were drowned in a roar o1 laughter led blythe prince himself.
