A MISERY COUNTESS.
One of Roumania's Old Nobility who
Though Immensely Rich Lived
in Squa1or.

The bucharest correspondent of the
London Daily Mail says that most
extraordinary character lately died in
Jassey, namely, Countess Balsch, one of
the last of the old Roumanian nobility,
ALI titles. except some few compli-
mentary ones, having been abolished
since the declaration of independence
after the Russo-Turkish war.
The old countess, although extreme
~ rich, was an inveterate miser, and
hardly spent penny, except in de-
- Tending lawsuit which her only
daughter, widow and an extreme in
valid, who had incurred the countess
displeasure by marrying without her
consent, had started against her, claim
ing but 300 f.. ines month " to live on.
On this she spent thousands until the
death of her unhappy daughter at a
hospital in Paris brought the case to, a
close.
When the authorities entered the
dead countess dwelling to take possess
sion OF her property. they discovered,
secreted in numberless impossible
places, no less than 100000 francs. a
quarter of million being in Napoleons
ant<iucats. While making a final in
ventory, they found, hid in bundle of
old mothreaten curtains, box contain
ing another 10000 francs, so that the
entire amount left by-this extraordi-
nary woman ; amounts to 1,65o,00o
.. francs.
Numberless little cheap note books
were also found, in which the eccentric
being had noted down every half-penny
spent. Some books devoted to her law
expenses were headed: Cost of proc.
ess against that beastly and poisonous
serpent, my daughter"

Emperor william

One Christmas present Which caused
Intense delight was received by her
majesty last year from the tiny daugh-
ter of Kaiser William. It was box of
hairpins of the value Of about quarter
dollar. The little princess was taken
by her mother, the empress, to q shop
in Berlin and told to buy eranimamma
8 present, and also to buy something
that she wanted for herself. In order
to accomplish this object the princes
was given gold piece Of ~ marks value
Give dollars). First, she bought herself
a doll, for which she gave 10 marks. Her
imperial mother did not interfere.
Then she bought grandmamma of Eng
land the hairpins for the remaining
mark out of her 20, and felt proud and
generous. The emperor of Austria al
ways sends the queen of England q
case or two of certain brand Of very
costly, very rare Tokay, and + ought
not to forget, BY the way, that the Ger
man emperor follows his,gra ndfathers
example of sending his English grand
mother case ofJohannisberg the real,
genuine Johnannisberg, as valuable al
most as the elixir Of life. The Russian
emperor for the last year or two has
sent the illustrious Lady, who, tina INKS to
his marriage, has now become also bis

A reporter who spent Christmas
among the Pennsylvania Germans Of
Lancaster county discovered what vii!
probably be to most people distinc-
lively new use for sauerkraut, a native
production of old Lancaster. and q
staple article of food, says the Pitts
burgh Times. He had called to see an
old friend who keeps dairy and foun /
the dairyman in the act of taking great
punches of succulent cabbage from a
barrel in the cellar. The odor prevailed
the neighborhood and made glad the
nostriis of every true and loyal Penn
sylvania 'Dutchman" within a distance
of about half mile. ~
The reporter was astunished when
the dairyman picked up a bucketful Of
sauerkraut and carried j. to his cow
stables. The second animal in the long
row of stalls was big. strengthened
cow. Her head was hang low under
the manager, although there was pier
tiful supply of hay in the rack above
Her ears had a detected '.roop and her
eyes were half. closed. She was evident-
~ very sick,cow at time when she
should have been in good spirits, for
among the Pennsylvania Germans it il
still popular belief that on Christmas
eve the cows in their stalls may be
heard to talk: to each other Of the great
event the day commemorates.
The bucketful of sauerkraut was
dumped into the Manager. The COW, by
some peculiar system of feeding. first
gave evidence of her appreciation by
slowly switching her'tail. which had be-
fore hung limp and lifeless. Then she
raised her head, poked her great muzzle
into the kraut and slowly began to
MUNICH the stuff. Fifteen minutes later
she looked quite happy. She had eaten
all the kraut and was taking great
mouthfuls of the hay. The dairyman
said sauerkraut had long been known
as one of the best things il the world to
give'a sick cow an appetite
