cement mine whose yield is as good as
any the world oYer. All of these
estates are situated south of Warsaw,
in land as fertile as any in Europe
The trees grow to enormous proper
ticns and the grain haryests compare
favorably with those of the western
United States. The River Warta flows
through the estates, adding greatly to
the natural beauty Of the scenery Of
the country.
When at home De Reszke spends
most of the time on the Borowna
estate. Here there is heavily walled
chateau Of French and Russian arch
itecture and built in the time Of Louis
XIV 1t is more like fort than a
dwelling, viewed from the outside, and
in fact it has done duty as both. The
interior has been greatly changed 1t
has grand banquet hall a vast library
stored with countless musical treas
ures, drawing rooms filled with a
curious mixture of ancient and mod
ern furnishings, and scores of other
apartments, all unique because of the
blending of the new and the old.
This chateau would be regarded by
most people as fine enough for any
one, but De Reszke has just had compile
ted modern structure which he calls
Cottage Americana" probably as a
compliment to the American dollars
which built it. This villa Is a marvel
in its way, having all the modern me-
chanical eontrivances used in the best
American hotels 1t is the completion
Of the Cottage Americaine' which Is
generally regarded as the immediate
forerunner Of the singers marriage
De Reszke made no secret Of the fact
that he was building the villa for his
bride. The old chateau, which Is
near by, he regards as too somber and
ponderous as a frame for honey
moon.

sides, the other remains at home, in
vesting the money where it will have
the best results.
De Reszke now owns four immense
estates in Poland. They are called
Borowna, Chorzeniee, Skrzydlow and
Zdrowa. They practically adjoin one
another and in all comprise an area
Of more than 100000 acres. OF late
years nearly all of his earnings have
been spent on improving these estates,
and now they earn a fine income. On
the BoroWna estate there is large
stable of thoroughbred horses. De
Reszke is fond of horses, but he does
not keep them for pleasure, but for
money making. On the Austrian,
German and Russian race courses his
horses are always to be seen during
the large meetings, and they have been
unusually successful, winning annually
many of the richest stakes. Ine net
profits of the stable have averaged $40,-
900 year for the past four years, a
fact that speaks volumes for the clev-
erness of Victor De Reszke, who man
ages them. There is finely con-
structed race course on the Borowna
estate, which is used for training the
horses, and all the stable fittings are
of the improved order.
His horses are not his only source of
profit. On the Chorzenice estate is a

synopsis.


The story is related by DIR. Brown,
an old physician, who when young
man was journeying To his new field
OF labor at Warren, II. |. He is over
taken by the village undertaken who
is going to attead the funeral of Louis
Placide. Plaeide when a boy had ac-
eidentally set fire TO barn while cele-
brating the Fourth of July; but his
companions, among whom was Bray
ton Grant, promised never TO betray
him. Grant ami Placide are fast
friends and business associates and in
after years become rival candidates fol
congress. The chances are In favor OF
Placide's election when Grant anony-
mously circulated the story of the
Fourth of July fire, laid other crimes
at his door and branded him as an in
eendiary. In doing this he used the
undertaken as a tool and the latter
alone knows the source of the SANDER,
Placide was defeated, never recovered
from the disgrace, and now has Just
died. The undertaken, who has, for
the first time, divuIged Grants treaoh-
cry, presses the doctor TO attend the
funeral, as he wishes lin to see Grant,
who, he says, is conscious-stricken and
sees mysterious things nights.

Paris, Sept. 27.-Unless all sig1s fail
HE great tenor, Jean De Reszke, will
lake a bride with him a month or two
hence when he sails for New York TO
fulfill his operate engagements in the
states. Moreover, it is said that he
will only sing two years more-this
season and that of 1S97-when he will
permanently retire.
De Reszke is now forty-three years
old. If his voice holds good until he is
forty-fiye he should consider himself
a fortunate man. And when he dis
appears to join the ranks of ex-tenors
who will take his place? There is no
one of the first caliber in sight today,
and if tLis state of affairs continues
music lovers will soon be face to face
with the problem of tolerat.ng a tenor
Of the second class.
But matrimony, not music, is to be
the theme of this letter. Within the past
year it has been rumored several
times that De Reszke was to take unto
him wife. AT times the rumors at
tanned such strength that many of the
Continental papers published the de-
tailed arrangements for the wedding.
But the latter never occurred. Now it
is again announced that De Reszke is
to wed and that the ceremony will
shortly be performed
Rumor has one thing to congratulate
itself upon in dealing with the matri-
monial affairs Of the famous singer,
and that is that the name of but one
woman has been mentioned as the
prospective bride. The majority of
rich and famous bachelors are engaged,
by rumor, to at least half dozen
different women. lie Reszke's name.
however, has always been associated
with that of the Countess de Miriam
allie, French woman of consider
able musical genius. 1t is this lady
whom, it is said, he will marry before
the approaching American tour,
If De Reszke visits America as a
married man it will doubtless cloud
the halo which has always hung over
him as a ladies pet" The big,
handsome tenor has been the idol Of
more women in Europe and America

orably, in extent, with the vast cattle
ranches Of Texas. Moreover, his fam
lily is Of ancient origin. His fore
fathers figured prominently among the
patriots who struggled vainly against
the partition OF Poland. For many
years the family lived in respectable
poverty and it has always been the
aim of De Reszke to restore their
ancient glories on a more elaborate
scale than ever before. His rich
earnings have made this possible, and
as he is a shrewd business man, he
has grown to be one of the financial
powers of Poland. His younger broth
er, Victor. is his financial manager,

world reaping golden haryests on all

Will be said here, for the simple reason

and there is little doubt that among
the scores of women who have show

cities of the two continents, there
were many who would willingly stand

susceptibility of womankind; it is the

It Is known that De Reszke has

many years, and but for some myster-

union, the marriage would have taken

THE GOOD TEMPLARS.

Garden Valley lodge will install off, cers on Monday night. Several can didates are also expected to be initia- ted The basket social given last Tuesday night was great success al- though there were not as many pres ent as the performance merited, owing to the threatening aspect of the wealth CT and other attractions in the city on that evening. The musical and lite rary programme was very interesting and the performers received most hearty applause. The singing of the colored quartette was the principal feature of the evening and they were called back repeatedly and responded each time with a selection prettier than the last. They sing well together and produce the sweetest melody. Their music is equal to that produced by any of the big minstrel troupers that have visited Phoenix during the past few years. The solo by MT. A. Jackson was beautiful selection, and showed the gentleman to be possessed of a remarkably strong and melodious voice. Each performer deserves special mention, but lack of space for bids. The sale of baskets netted about $2O. Jay B. Edwards, the eloquent Good Templar advocate, will speak in Cartwright school house on next Mon day evening for Floral lodge. He made such a favorable impression at former visit that the lodge invited him to come again. On last Saturday evening very successful and enthu- siastic meeting was held in Creighton school house. The speakers of the evening were Hon. J. A. Marshall, J. Webster Johnson and Jay B. Edwards. Music and recitations by visitors from Phoenix and Tempe and very enter taining programme. Grand lodge will meet in Phoenix February 28 at 10 o'clock and will remain in session two days. It is expected that outside lodges will be we'll represented this year, as delegates can get the advan- tage of half rates allowed on account of the carnival The local lodge is ar ranging with. the Tennessee jubilee singers who have spent the winter in Phoenix, to give an entertainment about February Ii for the benefit of the lodge. There are seven in the troupe, all first class vocalists, and they give very entertaining and va ried programme.

In this country $4,000, 200, 900 are in
the savings banks and a like amount is
covered by life insurance policies The

convince the multitude interested in
these items that they should vote for

crat. That conveys, and is no doubt in
tended to convey, a false impression.
This impression is that there are in
the savings banks of the country S.
000,000000 in gold, lying there all ready
to be handed out upon demand. That
there are eight billion dollars in cred
its in the savings banks is true, and
they represent that amount of money.
But savings banks and insurance COM
panies base their calculation as to how
much money they will be called upon
to pay during any period upon well
known tables, tables that are them
selves made up from statistics
Those who make such appeals to
savings bank depositors as this one
above quoted, do so for the express pur-
pose of alarming them and turning
them against free silver. Were all the
depositors in the United States to, be-
come panic-stricken on the. same day
and go to the banks and demand their
money, the banks could not pay them
In fact, if these savings banks had all
the money in the country they could
not pay them more than 81 per cent of
the amount due them, for there is in
the country less than So, 600 900, 900. CThe
total amount in 1894 was 81, 249, 325, 276)
The savings bank depositors would not
even get fifty-cent dollars. This takes
no account of depositors in national
and private banks.
The very fact set forth by the Globe
Democrat is a strong argument in IA
vor of free coinage Of silver. There
are only about six hundred millions of
gold in the United States. And still
the people are being told all the time
that there is enough gold in the coun-
try for al purposes, and that the free
coinage of silver would debase the cur
rency. There is not, if gold is to be
used at all times and our currency is
not to be paper promises to pay, which
promises are never to be paid.
1t is full time that the silver talk
about fifty-cent dollars ceased. They
do not exist any more than white
blackbirds do.

Mckinley maintains his silence on
the financial question, but that he is a
gold man there is no doubt. This fact
is vouched for by some of the most
prominent Republicans, as the follow
ing document shows:
To the Republican National Commit
tee:
Gentlemen-Your attention is respect
fully called by the undersigned Re-
publican voters of New York to the
efforts that are being made here to
disparage the candidacy of Mr. McKin-
ley by asserting that he is unsound on
the money question, and consequently
an unsafe man to elect president. Such
assertions we believe to be wholly I'M
warranted. Mr., Mckinley, in our i,ldg
ment. is as sound on finance as any
gentleman whose name has been men
toned in connection with the presi-
dency, and, if elected, would prove en-
tirely satisfactory to the business in
terests of this country
We say this not because of any de-
sire to influence the convention unduIy
in his favor-some of US, in fact, are
pledged to support other candida tes-
but to place before you, the highest
council of the party organization. our
protest against the unfair attacks that
have been made upon a worthy and
honored leader of the party. 1t is not
in the interest of fair play, it is not II,
the interest of the Republican par
ty, it is not in the interest of the coun-
try, to permit such attacks as have
been made upon Mr. Mckinley to 90
unrebuked. His distinguished services
entitle him, at least, to just, if not con
siderate, treatment Respectfully Yours
