she SANG FOR DEATH.


The Pathos and Tragedy Of Emma
Abbott's Passing Away.
One night in the city of Denver,
located at the foot and in plain view Of
the Rocky mountains, Emma Abbott
was billed to appear in "Faust. In the
same city most attractive and beauti-
full 1S-year-old girl, belonging to one of
the wealthiest families. lay in the last
stages of that fell enemy of the human
race-consun.ption. Some weeks before
the arrival Of the company she said to
those around her: ''Oh, / hope the sun
will shine and the weather will be warm
and genial, SO can hear Miss Abbott
sing once more. think could then
pass away peacefully and without one
single regret But there came with the
queen Of the lyric stage northern hur-
ricane-with the very air charged with
icicles. which penetrated the lungs.
Some one told Miss Abbott of the griev-
GUS disappointment of the dying girl.
She went to the opera house and never
sang more sweetly, and as soon as it
was over and the audience dismissed
called her carriage and directed it to
drive to the home of the young lady.
The scene which followed was worthy
of the finest brush ever welded by the
grand old masters. There lay the dying
earth angel, with pallid lips, hectic
cheeks and lustrous eyes and the light
of immortal beauty shining upon her
face. Standing beside her, in one of her
richest robes (the one she had worn that
night, sparkling with pearls, rubies
and diamonds, stood the almost divine
mistress of earthly melody.
The first piece rendered was ''The
Old Folks at Home, and then followed
81 Know My Redeemer Liveth.' The
finale of this weird scene was Crock of
Ages Cleft For Me, Let Me Hide Myself
In Thee" And then Miss Abbott bent
over the frail form and kissed her an
eternal farewell Soon after the spirit
passed into the wild winds which rang
through the wild mountains near by
set sail for that haven from which the
first homeward bound bark is yet to
be seen-the stainless soul waited to
the stainless heavens by the sweetest
music ever heard on earth-into the
melodies of paradise birds.
Miss Abbott returned to her room at
the hotel and retired. Some time dur
ing the night she awoke with pain in
the left lung. 1t rapidly grew worse. A
physician was summoned. Then nNoth-
er, and another, who applied every
remedy they could command. All to ne
purpose. 1t was typhoid pneumonia If
its worst form. The black camel was
kneeling at her door. Angels of the
heavenly choir had that night listened
to her voice in the sickroom and sent
for her to come home to them.
In three days that voice which had so
often raised the souls of men and wom-
en- to the noblest, the grandest heights
in holy ecstasy, was forever stilled in
death-gone forth into the night
So fades the summer cloud away,
So sinks the gale Wien 5t1rna are o'el
So gently shuts the 8 Of Gay
So dies the wave alurg ne re.

LUCKY DEUCE OF SPADES.

One by one the old superstitions are
being torn from us. People nowadays
walk ostentatiously under ladders and
suffer no evil consequences. Friday is
quite popular day for the commence
ment of long journey, and sitting
down 13 at dinner is frequently unat-
tended with untoward results. A deep
ly rooted superstition among card play
ers is belief in the lucky properties Of
the two of spades. The present writer's
faith, however, was severely shaken by
phenomenal coincidesce which occur
red only few days ago.
Sitting down to game of whist, he
thoroughly shufied both packs of cards,
and happened to notice that the two Of
spades was the bottom card Of one Of
the racks.

LAWTON'S INDIAN CAMPAIGNING.
How He Persuaded Geronimo to
Surrender,

Probably no living officer saw more
rough campaigning against hostile In
dians than Lawton. In 1876 he was
conspicuous in the expedition against
the Sioux, sharing every privation and
going into dangers into which he would
not send one of his soldiers. He took
part against the Ute indians in Colo
RADIO in October, 1879, reliuquishing his
command to join the expedition.
In the spring of 1886 Lawton, then a
Captain in the Fourth United States
Cavalry, was selec ed by Gen. Miles
from all other officers in the army as
the one man qualified to lead a picked
body of troops into Mexico in pursuit
of the murderous Geronimo.
Lawton had the finest command that
could be gathered. For three months
he led them in pursuit of the savages
from one range of mountains to anoth-
er, sometimes scaling peaks 5000 to
10000 feet above the sea level, and
then again descending into the depths
of the canons where the heat was al
most intolerable. During this time
Lawton and his command marched
1896 miles. The country was mostly
parched and barren desert. Saltless
mule meat and sometimes little of that
was their staple ration.
Lawton one day in San Francisco
was induced to tell his own personal
story of how he left his command and
forged on ahead to oyertake the In
dians. He told how he had to drop his
accoutrements bit by bit, leave off one
bit of clothing after another, quit eat
ing and drinking, sleeping and washing
and riding. In vague sort of way it
appeared that it was tough journey;
it killed horse; was pursued on foot
for many hot, starving, famishiug
miles, but the trail of Geronimo was
never lost, and there was no sign of
any fear of the result of catching up
with him. 1t was one man chasing a
band of hostiles, and Lawton thought
it added to the comical side of his ad-
venture that signs along the trail show
ed that Indians had been drinking.
Having studied Indians, he knew they
were ugly when drunk, and, like other
people, uglier after a debauch. But he
kept on, and seemed to be glad the day
he spied them in camp ia a foul gulch
in the mountains.
Lieut.. Lawlon, dirty, vSorn out, prac-
tically unarntso, waiAed into the hos
tile camp.
"Were the Indians se.prised9" he
was asked.
aey 1idn't show any emotion, !"
said Lswton.
"What did you say to them?"
"Nothing, l just nodded their fash.
ion and sat down on log beside &C.
