the worthy poor of that city. This

have been there number of years.
DR.. Chatten has attended quite a
number of difficult operations sue

are finding him to be just what Earl
lngton people know Elm to be-a
splendid physician and surgeon.
His many darlington friends are
much gratified to learn of his sue
cess.

ROSA BONHEUR's HEIREsS.
How Miss Anna Klumke Came to Be
Presented to the Great An
imal Painter.

Miss Anna Klumke who has inherited
Rosa Bonheur's fortune. is about To
publish paper, says the Brooklyn
Eagle. which shows how 1t came about
that the great artist made her will in her
favor. and you will be surprised to hear
that ii was John Arbuckle. the man at
the head of the great coffee industry
whom all Brooklynjtes know, who was
instrumental in having Miss Anna
klumke make the acquaintance OF Rosa
Bonheur. This is the way it came
about
John Arbuckle was great admirer OF
Rosa Bonheur and having, some ten
years ago, fine wild horse in his stud
Iarm, he sent it to Rosa Bonheur. A
year later, going to Paris, Mr. Arhuckle
wanting to know whether Rosa Bon
heur got the horse all right, asked his
friend, Miss Anna klumke, to go to the
chateau with him to act as Interpreter
because he spoke no French. They did
not see Rosa Bonheur; she was out, but
the maid showed the horse to its former
owner and said that no one was able tc
tame him; that he was let out in the
fields and came back to the stable of his
own accord when he wanted feed
Mr.. Arbuckle was bent on making
Rosa Bonheurs acquaintance and. on
writing to her, she invited him and Miss
klumke to luncheon saying they would
be most welcome. but would not get
much more than fresh eggs. Delighted
htr ie.;t A.,
eral calls upon Rosa Bonheur and each
lime he wrote asking the liberty to &c
to see her she wrote back TO be sure
and bring his charming interpreter with
him,
Anna Klumke, who always had the
greatest admiration for Rosa Bonheu,'s ?
work, was delighted to have the occa-
sion to see the great artist friend
ship grew out of these visits and when
Anna klumke came to America to fill
orders for portraits she and Rosa Bon
heur corresponded. When Anna Klumka
went back she painted Rosa Bonheur's
portrait for the Salon and during the
poses theartist asked Miss Klumke If she
would not like to live with her. that she
would give her lessons in painting and
that it would be pleasant to spend the
winter evenings together talking about
art and literature. Anna klumke's
mother was appealed to by the artist and
gave her consent and Anna was Rosa
Bsnheur's constant companion the last
two years of her life
Miss Klumke venerates the memory
of her friend and benefactress and she
spends the greater part of her life COL
lectng notes, remembering what tbs
artist told her. to get up d biography Of
Rosa Bonheur which will be a lasting
monument to her memory. In the mean
while, she is about to publish Rosa Bon.
hours letters to her in America.
