TO LOSE LAMENESS

New York, April 3.-There is happi-
ness ~unbounded III the palatial home
of Andrew Carnegie at Fifth avenue,
and Ninety-first street, for something
has happened that not all the iron
masters $500, 900. 600 could, in itself, have
brought about. This was the bring
ing of little Margaret Carnegie to real
health.
The steel brace which the child has
been compelled to have clamped for
the last year about her right leg hold-
ing it rigid, is shortly to be removed
by the physicians order and the in
trinity, which at one time was thought
would make her a cripple for life, has
been pronounced all but cured.
Before the ironmaster sails with Mrs.
Carnegie and Margaret for Skibo Castle
to spend the summer, the little girl will
have had the brace taken off and, ac-
cording to the assurances of the physi-
clan, she will then be able to walk with
only the slightest hint in her gait that
a brace a ever necessary.
The event comes OPPORTUNITY, for lit
tie Margaret will be IL years old next
week. 1t is.the best birthday gift she
could receive, although there is unlim-
tied money to buy her anything that
her heart could desire. The winning of
her health is. however. the only gift her
father and mother wished for her, and
that only time, and not the ironmaster's
millions, could procure.

Pearson, a farmer living near the own
of Lake Norden, was drowned while
trying to drive from town to his home.
He left town shortly after dark, his
way leading across the neck of the
lake, neal the inlet. 1t is supposed
that he became confused in his reckon
ing, for the next morning the conductor
of the train from the north sighted
mis- team, standing almost to their
shoulders in water, surrounded by ice.
The news was spread as soon as the
train reached town. and a searching
party left for the lake. The horses
were e~xtricated, the front wheels of
the wagon still being attached to the
harness. The rear wheels of the wag-
on and the box had disappeared. They
had evidently been swept under the
ice, and with them the driver. All eff
forts to recover the body have so far
proved futile, the current having prob
ably taken it to some distance.
