Gen. Eaton was afterward governor
of Florida and minister to Spain.
While in Madrid, Margaret Eaton won
the warm friendship Of Queen Chris
tina, and the queen also became a de-
voted friend of the little Timberlake
girls, both Of them being highly ac-
complished. Virginia was a splendid
harpist and Margaret was possessed
of a wonderful contralto. Mrs. Eaton
and her daughters were admired, re-
spected and toasted throughout Eu-
rope. The elder daughter, Virginia,
| became the wife of the Duke de
Sampayo, of France. The younger
daughter, Margaret, became the wife
of Lieutenant Commander John b.
Randolph of the navy, Virginian,
who died in the service Of his country.
The last days of this wonderful wo-
man were spent in a Washington
boarding house, on Ninth street, where
the Inter Ocean building now stands;
and from that locality she was buried.
all Of the eminent statesmen of the
day attending the funeral and paying
tribute to her memory.
In the hallway of that boarding
house one evening, when in her 80th
year Mrs. Eaton said to the landlady,
Mrs. Smith, and TO the narrator:
"I believe that I can take those five
young fellows in the parlor away from
those five young ladies. I'm going to
try it, anyway, just for fun"
Very quietly the old lady entered
the parlor, gently saluted each one
individually, listened until opportu-
nifty occurred, and then began talking
to all of the young people at once,
saying:
II was reminded this afternoon Of
the first bullfght that ever saw in
Madrid. Did you ever see bullfght? !?
Well, on this occasion, I was accom-
panied by Queen Christina, and half
of the time I couldn't keep my eyes
and my mind on the bullfight, al
though it was a novelty, because was
dazzled by the jewels Of the queen.
She wore that afternoon"
Here the old lady went into rhap-
sodies over the manner in which the
queen was gowned and bedecked.
The young men and the young ladies
formed circle around her, and inside
of two or three minutes she was the
center of attraction, and everybody
in the boarding house that could get
into the parlor went in, and others
craned their necks in the door.
When she had concluded her bril-
liant description, everybody asked
questions about Spain, and so forth,
but the old lady arose and left the
room, saying:
"You people have gotten me to
talking and have made me garrulous.
and these young ladies will be angry
with me-"
And, after winning her way in
that marvellous manner, when she left
The room, the young ladies were fore
most in urging her to continue her
conversation and descriptions of for
eign peoples and costumes.
Entertaining beyond description in
her S0th year, she must have been
phenomenally brilliant when in her
prime and when stimulated by ambi-
ton for social supremacy. t.-l

anything that made Jehovah angry
1t was 10 see somebody eating bacon;
but he thought, Maybe He is too
busy watching sparrows and count

slice. The weather was delightful
when he went into the restaurant
but when he came out the sky was
overcast, the lightning leaped from
cloud to cloud, the earth trembled,
and 1t was dark. He went back into
the restaurant, trembling with fear,
and, leaning over the counter, said
to the clerk, Say, did you ever hear
such a fuss about a little piece OF
