Tells of the Insults Offered by Her
Husband.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a. Before the
Princess C0lonna left New York for
San Francisco she granted an interview
to the editor Of LEGO D'Italia. She
said she was indignant at the
falsity of some of the accusations
against the prince when some of the
papers said that the prince was one of
the most dangerous of gamblers and a
cheat. They mistook him for one Lam
berto Colonna, who was expelled from
a club in Rome for cheating. However,
she said the prince is a man of terribly
violent character.

cause / refused to ask my stepfather,
MI. Mackay. for more money for him,

was only by a miracle that l es-
capped from being struck. 1t is not
true that Mr.. Mackay semi us a
million dollars to pay the princes
debts. but it is true that Mr.. Mackay
often sent us large sums to pay various
debts of the prince. 1t is also untrue
that l was obliged to sell my wedding
presents TO pay his debts, but l was
forced to pawn my Jewels several times.

band had his good and bad days at the

CHICAGO. EeD. ~, 1894.
Mr.. A. A. Fisher. st. Paul, MIMI
Dear Sir: Yours of the nth at hand
and contents carefully noted. We are
pleased to know that you have com
pleted negotiations with Mr.. Whitney
to take the road ia our interest, and be-
lieve that it will be mutually beneficial
both to himself and us. as i'll these
dull times a good, sure salary beats the
most favorable chances.
In regard to the advice you ask as to
boxing and returning the pianos and or
gans now at ST. Paul, or diSposing of
Same there at the necessary sacrifice,
we have talked the matter over at this
end Of the line and believe that it will
be much less expensive and much more
e~Xpedient to close the instruments
out right there at st. Paul regardless
of a dollar profit, than to go to the enor
nous expense and waste of time neces-
sary to box. dray and reship to Chi
cago, all of which will take, especially
if you have to make a large number of
boxes, which you seem to be short of. at
least three weeks time, at an expense
of freight and drayage OF about 81, 500
on the stock, and we feel satisfied thai
you car dispose of the entire stock right
there, at wholesale cost, i'll less time
than you could make boxes, box them
and put them b ard OF the cars, and, if
so, we would save the entire amount of
return freight and handling at both ends
of the line.
Therefore would suggest that you get
to WORE Immediately, and close out the
instruments. Cut down all expenses,
except necessary advertising, and see
how quickly you IA wind matters UP
there.
We suggest that it would be better to
keep Mr.. Whitney with you there in the
wareroom until this stock Is closed out
and delivered; will be content under
the circumstance if he takes The road
OH the tenth day of March.
In regard to the small goods and sheet
music, waste 10 time with it. When
you get through with the pianos you
can probably dispose of those to some
dealer who can use them.
With these suggestions, we leave the
matter entirely in your hands. and will
be perfectly content with the result.
Yours, etc., w. W. KIMBALL Co.,

How Became an Actress.

art, writes Madame Adelaide RiStori in
the January Ladies' Home Journal.
My mother, who was Of gentle birth,
was not an artist herself, but from hav-

contact with the profession, became an
artist herself.
My paternal grandmother was in her
day an actress of much Tepute, but
while still young gave up her profession.

her influence. and absolutely grew up

Lo NDoN, Feb. 24.-In the queens
bench division of the high court of jus
tice today the case of Mrs. John Bid.
dulph Martin, formerly Victoria Wood
hull, against the trustees of the British
museum, vas continued before
Baron Pollock. Sir Charles Russell.
the attorney general. this morning con-
tlnued his cross-examination Of Mrs.
Martin. During this cross-eXamina-
ton, Sir Charles Russell asked the wit
ness a number of questions in regard to
the Beecher-Tilton trial, and questioned
Mrs. Martin as to the truth of the
story published in the Woodruff CIaf1in's
journal, to the effect that the Rev. Henry
Ward Beecler dropped Oh his knees be-
fore her as she was seated on a sofa,
took her face between his hands and
impiored her to let him off. Mrs. Martin
did not give a direct answer to this
question. but said that it required a
good deal of explanation.
Sir Charles Russell persisted in his
question, and finally Mrs. Martin said
that the scene had not occurred so far
as she personally was concerned ;''but."
she added, IF the Beecher scandal is to
De continually introduced in this way,
IT is unfair to me and unfair to history"
Laughter.
Considerable amusement was caused
throughout the examination and cross
examination of Mrs. Martin, by the
smart answers which she frequently
gave to counsel. But Mrs. Martin was
perfectly cool and collected throughout,
and insisted upon making elaborate
replies. which were often disconcerting,
even TO such a distinguished cross
examiner as Sir Charles Russell.
Eventually Sir Charles Russell took
up a book containing extracts from the
speeches of Mrs. Martin, IL book for
which Mrs. Martin had written a pref.
ace, and asked her: Can you point out
a single sentence which repudiates
before 1881 the filthy passages
in WoodhulPs Weekly of. Nov. 3,
1922" ALLOW me to state how that
work came 10 be DONE" answered Mrs.
Martin, beginning a long explanation.
After her cross-examinatioD, Mrs. Mar
tin was ~re-eXaniined at length, repeating
the story of her life, her high aims aud
ideas. Mrs. Martin. during the course
OF her re-eXainination, said that she
never knew q publisher named BTanker,
of New York, and, added Mrs. Martin,
she did no believe that such a
person existed. Continuing, the witness
said that she had never been in the
John Biddnlph Martin, husband of the
plaintiff, was the next witness, and
after his testimony had been taken Sir
Charles Russell began his speech for
the defense. Eventually the case was
adjourned until Monday.
