WAGNER AS A HERO.
A Selfish VOluptuary, Neglected. Husband

A Selfish Voluptuary, Neglected. Husband
and Disagreeable Friend.
Never was there sorrier hero thai
Wagner, the selfish voluptuary who
was content to crafty his luxurious
tastes at the expense of his friends, but
was too independent to feel grateful
for their sacrifices; whose self-indul-
gence was so much of a disease that he
smoked in order not to miss a sensa-
ton which others enjoyed and was ca
pable of driving his host into the
streets in the small hours of the morn
ing to replenish his snuff box, and of
whom his most ardent champion, the
late Ferdinand Praeger, has to confess
that, while he was ready enough to
enter into a quarrel, he always moved
away when it looked like coming to
blows" Wagner's callous neglect of
his first wife, who had been his slave
through years of perjury qualified by
prodigality, provoked the remon-
strances of his friends and forced Mr..
Praeger to say: 81 can testify that Wag-
ner suffered severely from thought
leSsneSS." No shabbier letter was ever
penned than the one he wrote to Mr..
Praeger when he found that the long
suffering woman had confided her
troubles to their common friend.
How could she have expected" he
plaintively asks, that l was to be
Ghackled and fettered as any ordinary,
common, cold mortal? My inspira-
tons carried me into a sphere where
she could not follow and then the eX-
uberance of my heated enthusiasm
was met by cold douche."
The familiar plea that there should
be one law for genius and another for
the common MORTAL is not intoler-
able when urged by the apologetic
hero-worshiper; from the hero himself
it comes with but i'll grace. 81 liked
every luxury; she fettered me there, "

striven so hard to save him from the
ruin threatened by his colossal ex-

He argued that Clara not loving the
banker, he would thus save her from a
life of unhappiness, and perhaps the
banker also, and in time perhaps even
he, the pilots son, might call Clara Hill

With these thoughts in his brain he
fastened ashore and in the direction of
the Lloyd mansion. Just as he turned
the corner within one block of the house
he encountered Herbert Lathrop.

pleasure to see you; you are going to

late for calls. 1 am the bearer of a let

it, though promised to do so in per-

''By all means come-do not be rec

them both, and if you do not see them
