MELBA's HOME.
How the Great Artist Lives in Her Paris
ian Apartments.

Women are never so interesting and fas-
cinating as when they are IN their own
homes. A recent commentator of Nine.
Melba's asserts that she is home only
seven weeks in the year, but that she
keeps her handsome apartments in Paris
she season around; that it is her greatest
pleasure to rest ana to visit with her
twelve-year-old boy. Nine. Melba's
house is in Rue de Prony. midway be-
tween the Madeleine and the home of
Sarah Bernhardt; and she has for her
neigh bors the Gounod family and Nine.
Marc hest.
Melba's saloon is decorated and fur
ished in tones of rose and olive. House
hold embellishments is said to be one of
her fads Sha is one of those rsrae ayes
who were born rich. entered their career
rich and remain rich. Her tastes are ex-
travagant, but elegant.
Her apartment is furnished in the
Marie Antoinette and Josephine period.
Her home unlike most French houses, is
rarpeted completely. Two life-size por-
traits of the artist decorate the saloon.
Three miniatures reveal the singer and
her little boy. The articles on her writ
ing table ara in tortoise shell. The port
folio bears the silver monogram of 80 Mol
ba.'' The, paper case is a pagoda-shaped
affair.
In various portions of the room are the
many curios and souvenirs that have from
time to time been presented to her.
Among her treasures are medals, CLOCKS
watches, bonbon boxes and vinaigrettes
tnlaid with precious stones. Nine.
Melba's sleeping apartment is as charm
ing as her salon. The bed is Marie An
toine5te-one Oh which the Queen actual
" slept. 1t stands on a little raised dais.
The coverlet is richly embroidered. Her
sons room is furnished in white and yell
low.
Nine. Melba has been singing seven
years. Her maiden name was Mitchell.
Her father was Scotch and her mother
Spanish. From heE mother she inherited
her musical skill. At II MelDa mar
ried Mr.. Armstrong, Her unhappy life,
her commentator says, led her to take up
a public career. The artist has three
brothers and three siste4s. One of her
brothers is q remarkable singer.
When her fatheriwas appointed a CON-
missioner from Melbourne, Australia, to
one of the -Lnndon exhibitions he TOOK
his family with him to Europe. Soon af-
ter her arrival Media began to study with
the great Marchesi whom she has never
left for any other teacher. She made heI
debut in Brussels in 1883.

The Weatherno!tz Case.


WOODSTOCK, Nov. 17.-In the count,
court here nolle prosequi was enter
ed in the Indictment against Elmer A
| Weatherholtz, who was tried at the
August term of this court for the mur.
der OF his wife in this county last Feb
ruary. 1t will be remembered that at
the trial the jury rendered verdict of
murder in the second degree and fixed
his punishment at eighteen years in
the penitentiary. but which verdict
was set aside by the court as being
contrary to the evidence adduced in
the trial of the case. As the law of
this State prohibits retrial for higher
offense than the accused has been
convicted of, this was the only course
for the court to pursue. Weatherholtz
will be held on an indictment for at
tempting to kill his mother-in.Ia " |
some time previous to the killing of |
his wife. He was returned to Winches- |
Ter for safe keeping until the Decem-
Der term, when the trial case will be |
heard.
