Vanderbilt MAY SUE.
II is Said He Does Not Relish Paying
AIimOny Now.

IL is Said He Does Not Relish Paying
AIimOny Now.
Society, says the New York CONNER
cial Advertiser, has been playing gently
with a rumor for the past few weeks,
which, IL circumst ances are to be taken
as indications, seems to be founded on
more than modicum of truth. The story
adds to the Observation-Disclosures compIica-
ton. 1t is said that Mr.. William K.
Vanderbilt is not at all easy in his mind
az the prospect OF having Mr.. and
Mrs. oliver Belmont live on the money
he provided as alimony TO his divorced
wife, and in the house at Newport which
he had given her as a habitation for her
self and her children during the period OF
her grass Widowhood.
There is a legal ferment in the air Law
yers have been consulted, and at no dis
tant date society may be astOnished, if ii
has not already been prepared for it, by
the warning of rumor, by a lawsuit in
which Mr. William X. Vanderbilt will be
the plaintiff and Mrs. Oliver Belmont de-
PENDANT By the terms of settlement
Mrs. Belmont was to have $4,000 a year
Tor the support of each child. She has for
feited the amount set aside for her
daughter by the marriage of that young
woman to the Duke of Marlborough She
has now the two sons to keep until they
reach their majority. Owing to the ma
ture of the suit for divorce, and Mrs Bel
mont, then Mrs. Vanderbilt being plain
tiff, she obtained the custody of her chill
dren and the right to remaIry. The de-
cision was against Mr.. Vanderbilt on
statutory grounds. Hence it would be
impossible for Mr.. Vanderbilt to claim
his children, but as to his maintaining
alimony after his wife has remarked is
another question.
Friends of Mr.. Vanderbilt have assert
ed that he will fight this to the bitter end,
and unless some compromise is made a
lawsuit will be the result. The Belmonts
intend to sail for Europe some time dur
ing the coming week. They have kept
very quiet, and no one knows exactly the
date of their departure. Mr.. Vanderbilt
has postponed his from the 21st to the
18th, alleging important business as the
cause.

Davy has shown US that they are not.
In thinking of the animals that died we
completely lost sight of those we have
left And bemoaning the low prices
this year we have forgotten the many
comforts and blessings we already
have. What do you say, shall we have
Thanksgiving, Jack?"
"Yes, indeed, we WILL" he returned,
springing from his chair with new alac-
rity. I'll kill the biggest turkey on
the place, and We'll have father and
mother, and Mr.. Snowdon, and Cousin
Myra's family. Our little folks shall
have happy surprise for once. Now
! you just hustle around, little woman,
and we'll have the most thankful
Thanksgiving we ever had"
And, Jack, We'll send the Greens a
basket of things. Only think how hard
it must be for them to get any cooking
dNe. And some good food will no
doubt do Mr.. and Mrs. Green both good,
worn out as they are nursing their sick
children"
Fifteen minutes later the whole house
was in happy excitement and all hands
busy in the work of preparation. And
the next day a score of hearts beat in
happy enjoyment who would have
known no such pleasure had hopeful

sermon.-Nellie Burns, in Ohio Farmer.

with light blue ribbons. The carriage
of the animal bespoke the dignified
artist. Mounted on the stool. the music
before it, the dog began to pat the keys
at signal from his master, and the
notes of sentimental and well-known
love song filled the house, also an occa-
sional howl from the dog. The people
declared it might be possible to train
the dog to sing, as several of his notes
were in accord with the music. At
the finish the applause was deafening.
and both master and dog made
several courtesies. The professor did
something to the interior of the piano,
and when the long-haired poodle again
patted the keys, the mournful opening
of lie Miserere" greeted their ears.
Would the wonderful animal render,
that difficult duet?" was asked all over
the house. He did not. His hair
creeped into his eyes, and he took his
paws from the key board to wipe his
face. The piano played on. AT a mo-
ton from his master the dog leaped
from the stool and followed him
through the back door. The train was
at the station not very distant, and the
pair caught it just in time.
The instrument was an electric piano,
and it has been used ever since in the
Sunday school of the church at Topeka.

MOI USED 10 II.
A "Reminiscences of the West Point Days
of Brave Union Soldier.

Capt. George L. Prescott, of Concord,
Mass, commanded the men of his town
in the battle of Bull Run, and was leading
an advance on the enemy's center when
the right wing of the army was out
fanked by Gen. Kirby Smith, and the
union forces were obliged to retreat.
His colonel owned that Prescott's ad-
vance was magnificent sight to see,
and that it made an impression on him
is very evident, for he was himself
wounded, and in the fever and deliriun
of the next few days, he says he could
hear nothing but Prescott saying:
STEADY, men, steady!" to the soldiers.
The author OF Concord Thirty Years
Ago" describes Capt. Prescott as hand
some man with commanding figure
and a frank and resolute countenarce.
He was n typical American of the best
sort, with a cordial franlness and ill.,
dependence of manner. One of the best
things to be remembered about him S
a story connected with his first days in
camp on the Potomac.
A cadet, freshly graduated from West
Point, had been directed by Gen. Nc
Dowell to drill the companies of the reg
iment in succession. The young fellow
had the West Pointers contempt for
volunteer soldiers, and emphasized his
orders with an unceasing flow of pro-
fame language. When the turn of the
Concord company came Capt. Prescott
| approached the newly-fledged officer
and said to him:
II must request you, sir, to give your
orders in the plain terms of the military
code, for my men do not like profanity.
If you do otherwise shall march them
off the grounds, and they will obey me,
and not you
