There was cer- tainly a preface to the crucial scene before us. It was not wholly fortui- tous The way to 1t was paved. Esau's contempt for his right of primogeni- ture was the gradual outgrowth of his recklessness. impiety, and misallian- ces.

Girl Still the aSphlnx..

The cottagers stiII believed that the
lucky man would be Robert Walton
Goelet, to whom Miss Vanderbilt had
been reported engaged many times
But she maintained the manner Of
the sphinx and declined either to deny
or affirm any Of the many rumors.
That the conservative young woman
would ever become the center OF a.
romance in foreign lands was the last
thought that entered the minds OF her
friends, and her last visit to America
probably would have Teen forgotten
forever were It not for the arrival in
Newport Of a dapper young man whom
she met at the station. They jumped
into a little basket buggy together
and drove rapidly to the Breakers.
In a few moments they were follow
et by two huge express wagons con-
tanning more than n score of trunks.
The cottagers along Bellevue road
marveled at the identity OF the new
visitor. but they Judged from his
baggage that he was in Newport for
a long stay.
That same night Mrs. Vanderbilt. ST.
announced the engagement. It came
as a surprise to every one, for none
would believe at first that she would
not become the wife Of Robert GOelet.
The family of the count puzzled some
Of the fashionable dwallers. too. for
never before had he visited America.
and few knew OF his antecedents It
was also odd. they thought. that a
nobleman with all the social honors OF
Newport awaiting him should come IN

GAVE UP HER LIFE
FOR LITTLE ONES
New York Widow Dead of
Starvation After Heroic
Struggle Against Poverty.

New York, Dec. 2s.-Happy that her
children, for whom she had sacrificed
everything, even the last scraps of
food, had at last found friends, Mrs.
Phyllis Frisco died at a Brooklyn hos
pital OF starvation. Mrs. Prisco's hus-
band has been dead some months and,
with four little ones, the eldest four
years, the youngest four months, to care
for, she labored day and night until
she was taken i'll. Her pride prevented
her from asking for aid, so she saved
what bits of food she could obtain for
her little ones, while she gradually grew
weaker and weaker from the lack of
food. The last bits of crusts went for
the children's Christmas dinner, and
then in the morning neighbors heard the
crying of the little ones in the unfur-
nished room in which the mother and
children lived. They entered and found
Mrs. Frisco dying and the children
weak from the lack of food and from
the cold. The police removed the moth
er to a hospital and the children's So
ciety took care of the little ones.
When the physicians found that all
hope for the mother was gone, the lit
tie ones were sent for and Mrs. Frisco
