CAUSED BY STARTLING
DISCOVERY.

PARIS. Jan. 10.-A dispatch from
Lisbon SAYS that a remarkable scan
dial has arisen in the highest society
there. following a discovery recently
made by fishermen on the seashore
near the city. The men were going to
their work at an early hour when
they heard a feeble cry which seemed
to come from the ground beneath
their feet Being superstitious they
were about to flee from the spot, when
cause of the sound.
1t was a baby two ~ nthS old, par
TALLY buried in the sand. The little
one was taken to the nearest police
which led to the discovery of a do
mestic drama in the highest Portu-
guese society.
The mother of the child is well
known. and during the absence of her
husband on service in the Portuguese
African colonies she had become en-
tangled in a love intrigue. When she
heard of her husbands impending re-
turn she set to work to hide her dis
grace. Whether she personally de-
posted the child in the sand is not
known. but the affair has caused
great sensation in spite of the efforts
of her relatives. who are infiuentially
connected, to hush the matter up.
