Mrs. Frank Leslie Is Seriously l.......
III at Her Home in New York.

NewYork, Dec. t3.-The Baroness de
Razus, more famIlarly known to soci-
ETY. and in the literary world as Mrs.
Frank Leslie, is lying dangerously III
at her apartments In the Chelsea, In
West Twcnty-third street.
Indeed, she is so Ill that her physi-
elan, DR.. Thompson, has given strict
orders to permit not even her most
intimate friends to see her. Nothing
in the way of business Is brought to
her notice, while her nurses are nd
monished to keep the most careful
vigil,
The Baroness was taken seriously
III n week ago aud has been growing
gradually worse day by day. There
Is complication of diseases, the
principal of which Is chronic stomach
trouble, and the patients advanced
years give cause for grave apprehen-
sion.
Mrs. Wrenn, n niece of the Baroness,
Is In constant attendance, and per-
sonally sees all who come to the
Chelsea on the most urgent matters.
The Baroness returned from abroad
in July last The title she assumed
dates back from the time of Saint
Louis, King of France. Her ances-
tors came TO Louisiana, because of
the Huguenot prosecutions, but about
fifteen years ago an aunt of Mrs. Les
lie established her right by birth and
marriage TO the title of Baroness de
Bazus, and claimed It for the benefit
of her son, The latter died about
eight years ago, and the aunt also
being dead, the title then passed to
