End Comes Suddenly.
When Nine. Musard's edifice col
lapsed 1t was with startling sudden
ness. First the favor Of the Dutch
sovereign was lost to her and Europe
was nearly plunged into war thereby.
In 1867 she betrayed her royal lovers
negotiations with Napoleon III. for the
sale of Luxembourg to France. The
king was in need Of money, while the
woman was enjoying the height Of lux
ury as result of his gift. Luxembourg
was his and he sought to sell, thus vio-
lating the treaty guaranteeing its neu-
trality. In March the treaty of cession
to Napoleon was drawn up. William
confided the contemplated act to his
Egeria. Nine. Musard betrayed the
fact, some say to the German ambas-
sador, others to the Marquise de Palva.
The disposition of the sovereignty OF
the duchy had been settled 80 years
before by concert of the powers.
Germany was furious oyer the plotted
scheme and was was only averted by
the calling of a conference in London
which settled Luxemburg's neutrality
and decreed that 1t should remain in
the possession of the house of Orange
Nassau. Egeria had lost her Numa-
Dies In AsvIuun
Nemesis followed hard after. The
indiscreet talk of madam lost her royal
friend, but she was wealthy, and one
report had 1t that she had divulged the
secret negotiations for hard cash, was,
in fact, gilded spy in the pay OF Ger
many. Her joyful life as the adulated
of all adulators babe fair to last long.
But one night in her box at the opera
she was suddenly seized with paraly-
tic attack. Her left eye was SO az
fected she was never able to open 1t
again. She soon lost her mind; few
months later she became raving ma
MAC and tried to kill Chaplin, the
painter. She was shut up in the asy-
lum of DR.. Blanche, the famous spe-
cialist, and died shortly, leaving what
remained OF her fortune to her Ameri-
can relatives. The parasites who had
lowered about her made on with a
good portion of her money, and It is
needless to say that the heirs Of the
obliging Musard put in a claim that
had to be fought In the courts. SO
ended in oblivion the glittering course
of the fair American who became
queen of society and mistress Of roy
atty.
Through the contemporary records
OF her meteor-like career Mario Mus

whether he was French or Belgian in

Median king, on that first day after
his army had taken possession of

those about him could make answer
he broke out with a second question.
