ROSA BONHEUR.

From Paris comes the news OF the death
of Rosa Bonheur, and the world now
knows that 1t has lost one of the great
est of its modern painters. OF late years
her genius has been obscured by advanc-
ing age, but in salons, art galleries and
among private collections her wondreus
art has ever served. as it will continue.
to serve. to keep her memory green in
the hearts of the people.
Rosalie. more generally known as Rosa
Bonheur, was a strong, masculine char
actcr. yet with wealth of womanly gen
erosity rarely excelled among her sex.
1t can be truthfully said that none knew
her but to love her, none named her but
to praise" To the poor she was cbari-
table; by royalty she was respected. This
Is attested by the fact that, during the
siege Of Paris, 1S70-1S71 ner studio and
residence at Fontainebleau were spared
and respected by special order of the
crown prince of Prussia. From 1849 until
within recent years. the greatest of ami
NAL painters directed the gratuitous
school of design for young girls. During
her last illness. at Thomery, where she
died at the age of sevonty-eight years,
she was attended by the most eminent
physicians of Paris, Aside from the pro-
ductions OF her high genius she has left
to the world the memory Of a good
woman and a grand artist.
AS painter there is but one opinion
regarding her future fameA She placed
npon her canvas animal life in all its
virility. action and truthfulness to nature.
In the portrayal of these conditions no
other artist, not even Landseer has ever
approached her. What is considered her
finest picture, ''Ttllage in Nivernais,' has
been placed in the collection of the Lux
emburg. BY Americans she will be best
remembered by her famous Horse Fair
painted in 1853 Reproductions of this
grand collection of equine specimens are
found everywhere In this country where
there is the least pretcnse of attention
to art. "rhc Haymaking Season in Au-
vergne' Is another masterpiece of animal
life and country landscape.
She passed away as she had wished, at
her country home near Thomery, and
amid scenes which she had often sketch
ed Her life was long, useful and hon
orable, and her fame is worldwide

AT THE THEATERS.
METROPOLITAN.

The sale of seats for Richard Mansfield 3
engagement In '.Cyrano de Bergerac" at
the Metropolitan next week continued
steadily all day yesterday. Many ticket
purchasers expressed their surprise at
the fact that there were so many good
seats remaining for the different per-
formances, as they had been informed
that the seats had all been sold for the
entire engagement. Some irresponsible
parties have evidently been giving free
rein to their Imagination, and If the I'M
preston created by their idle talk is not
dissipated it will result In hundreds of st.
Paul theater-goers going TO Minneapolis
to see Mr.. Mansfield very likely they will
secure less desirable locations in Mime
apolis than they can secure today at their
own theater in st. Paul There are hum
dreds of good seats left for every per-
formance of Mr.. Mansfield's st. Paul en-
gagement and those desiring to witness
the greatest performance on the Ameri-
can stage need have no fear Of missing
1t on account of lack Of room in the
theater. ST. PauPs amusement-SeekerS
may congra tulate themselves on this op-
portunity of seeing this grand production
presented by our greatest American actor,
in the first season Of its popularity.
The announcement of the return engage
ment of Sporting Life" at the Metro
politan the latter half of next week has
created a great deal of interest; hun
dreds of people who did not realize the
merit of this magnificent production, and
hundreds more who were unable to gain
admission to the theater during the first
engagement, will take advantage of the
opportunity of seeing the thrilling melo-
drama Oh its return to ST. Paul. The en-
gagement will be for four nights and
Saturday matinee. beginning Thursday
next, and the sale of seats will open
Monday morning. 1t Is expected that the
business will be even larger than during
the initial appearance of Sporting Life"
in this city.

NEW YORK, May 26.-The second
nights play in the four-handed profess
sional billiard match at three-cushion
caroms resulted tonight IN a victory for
Wizard Schaefer and w. D. Harrison,
= Of Chicago, who scored 65 points against
So for Napoleon" Frank Ives and John
A. Thatcher. This gave them the match
their total score being 125 to 100 for the
other team.
Harrison was the star Of tonight's
game, and his individual score showed
80 points to his credit against 80 for Ives
26 for Schaefer and q for Thatcher. The
Wizard" had an off night, and his play
was not nearly so brilliant as In the first
half Of the game.
Ives began poorly, and up to his thir-
tieth inning had made only thirteen
caroms. Then he started to make up for
lost time and soon pulled his average up
to the best of the four. For the full
match the "Napoieons" total of points
scored was 66. against 63 for Schaefer 81
for Harrison and "a for Thatcher. Ives
showed wonderful ability at difficult
bank shots, and he secured a great
many of them during the evening
Schaefers skill included a greater va
riety of plays and remarkable ability
at leaving the balls safe for Thatcher,
who followed him, a play which kept
down his opponents score materially
A second match has been arranged, to
take place tomorrow night when Harri-
son and Thatcher will meet De Orc, the
pool champion who is also an expert at
three-cushion billiards, and William H

WIFE LEFT HIM YESTERDAY

She Went to Forest Lake on the
Afternoon Train-JOhn Followed
Her to the Depot and Tried to
Woo Her Back, but She Would
Have none of 1t, Not Even Per-
mitting Him to Argue His Case.
John Hayes, farmer 35 years of age.
residing on his country place near Inyer
Grove spent the greater part of yester-
day afternoon in the union depot pro-
claiming to several of his friends that he
would not live with his wife unless she
was willing. Mrs. Hayes was also at the
depot. She was waiting for a train for
Forest Lake, which should take her far
from family troubles and domestic strife
and leave her to the reflections which
woman has when she has decided that
her marital relations are failure
The unlucky farmer recited his tale
with many dubious misgiving He was
not sure that he wished to part company
with the partner of his domestic rela-
tions, yet he did not understand how, ac-
cording to the strict etiquette which pre-
vailed at Inver Grove, man could live
with a woman unless she was willing
Mr.. and Mrs. Hayes had troubles, not
merely of their own, but some In addi-
tion which were unsolicited The strife
broke out in open war yesterday fore
noon; and the good wife announced her
decision of leaving the hearthstone desc
late and betaking herself to the classic
shades of Forest Lake with her little girl,
while her husband departed to the dem
milton dogs. 81 velit.
Her decision was so firmly rooted that
nothing could prevail against it. and she
left the home and came to st. Paul After
mature deliberation on the mutability OF
human, especially feminine affection. tho
husband followed and arrived in the
union station an hour in advance of the
train which was to take his wife away.
Mrs. Hayes was safely ensconsed in the
secluded portion of the caravansary
which is allotted to women, and. even at
the friendly solicitations of the genial
depotmaster, would not see her other
half. Mr.. Hayes smoked a disconsolate
pipe or two and reflected. Finally, with
heroic determination to do OF die, he told
his troubles to a policeman, and then
went in person to argumentatively pre-
vail upon the idol of his heart to return
home. He met with a rude unlocked for
jolt. She refused point blank No argu-
ment could prevail against her steel will.
and he retired from the unequal fight
abashed and disheartened.
In a few minutes the train came in
and, not daring to approach her again. he
stood alone and miserable as she de-
parted through the door of the carshed
and took her train with her daughter
Mr.. Hayes then ruminated again, and,
after adjourning to a quiet place imme-
diately adjacent for a little moral ref1ec-
ton, emerged in half an hour and an
nounced that, since his wife had left
him, he had determined to live alons-
With this sage remark he climbed into
his rig and drove slowly back to Inver
