SICKLE'S WOES.

The marital woes of Daniel E,
Sickles are about to follow him to the
end of LIES Iourney. Over a half a
Gentry ago the General shot and kill
ed Phillip Barton Key on Lafayette
square, Washington. Key, it was al
lodged, had been carrying on an in
trigue with Mrs. Theresa Sickles. a
young and beautiful woman Of Italian
origin. The trial caused the greatest
interest throughout the country. Sick
les was at the time a member OF
Congress from New York. The pro-
ceedings Of the trial were published
in the daily papers and pictures Of
Sickles, his wife and Key appeared in
the illustrated papers of that day.
All the testimony and everything bear
ing upon the tragedy and trial were
subsequently coliated and published
in book form. The civil war broke
out two years later and more momen-
tous issues cast the Sickles case into
partial eclipse. Mrs. Sickles died af-
ter her husband had become reconciled
to her, and he entered the Federal
army, became a major genera! and
lost leg at the battle OF Gettys-
burg. His marital woes, however,
were not inferred in the grave with
his first wife. He is having troubles
with his second-troubles Of a diff
ferent nature, however, and like
King Lear, his children, too, have
arraye dagainst him.
Declaring his intention of driving
General Daniel Z. Sickles into IAN
old soldiers home" because Of his
base and untruthful attacks upon the
character Of my mother, Stanton
Sickles has resumed his lombard
ment upon the aged man. The son
has revealed several sensational and
hitherto unwrltten chapters III the
family history, mentioning two more
women-besides prominent society
women already mcntioned-witn
whom he declared Lis father enter
tanned liasons, and to whom he stated
General Sickles had given nearly
S4.0O0,OO0. He stade that his father S
debts may reaEh the appalling amount
of Si,000OO0. This money has been
lost principally in Wall street, &C
cording to the son.

AN-0F7 TDLD STORY
Continued from Second Page.)

wife became sick; and within a few
weeks she died. During her sickness
her husband, for so the man called
himself in the epitaph on the tomb
stone watched tenderly over her. But
he would have nothing to do with the
citizens of Alexandria, and would
oive no account whatever of himself.
The mysterious couple of the City
Hotel were the talk of the town, and
the cossips Of the city were trying
to learn something about them. They
we,a baffled at every point. The
French maid servants could not speak
a word of English, and the physician
vino attended the beautiful lady's last
hours would say nothing in regard to
her. When death came the female
servants and the husband alone beheld
the face of the dead, wife, and they
alone were present when the funeral
service was celebrated. The citizens
were not admitted to upper rooms
Of the hotel, and the closed coffin was
carried directly to the hearse, ana
frorl the hearse to the cemetery. by
his orders this tomb was erected, ana
he disappeared after the death as
mvgteriously as he came. This IN real
ity is all that is known in regard 10
this mysterious lady. Conjecture mas
run riot in explaining the story, and
TIE romance of haunted cemetery
and a hermit stranger who hangs
around it are whispered over AleXan-
d1ia tea tables. By some it is thought
that the female stranger was an
American, and by some she is sup
posed to be the daughter OF Aaron
Bun. rrheodosia Burr,and the ship III
which she had embarked from Char
leston, disappeared two years before
the female stranger died at AleXan-
fria and she was, think, older than
% wears. When the strangers nus
band would permit no one to Sc hef
face after she was dead, gave rise
to the supposition that he may have
feared its recognition by those who
looked upon it. Another story IS that
the female stranger had two rival
lovers and that the successful one
bror ght her to this country to avold
the vengeance of the other. lhose
who tell the latter story believe that
the unsuccessful rival followed the
counle to this country, and murdered
tho widowed near Alexandria, and
that this murderer was the mysterious
one Tor which Monroe oTered reward
during his presidency. The circum-
star .cs are such, however, that con-
iect,,res of all kinds can be made In
rca, I'd to it. Remembering Ihe
wea 5h of Alexandria at this time and
the fact that it was often visited by
the diplomats and the great men OIL
the Washington court across the riVer'
it nav be that the lady was mem
her Of one of the noble English fam
lilies. and that her husband, or lover,
whoever he may have been, feared
that there might be sightseer VINO
rocoonize her. Who she was
will never be told. The actors con-
meet ed with her burial are long
sine dead, and this tomb alone re-
mains as a monument of this mystic
riout love of seventy years ago.
