HUNTING A LEGACY.

The 17th of June, 188—, was an important day for Henriette Bardonnel, milliner, at Rouen.

She was seated at about 10 In the morning in front of her window, which faced on the Rue des Charrettes, busy shaping and trimming a superb bonnet,when Mine. Dufresnes, lior employer, opened the door suddenly, afld flourishing a paper burst Into the room. "Henriette! Henriette! Haven't yon read it? Don't you know?" shouted she, out of breath "Look, see!"

And she thrust the papei^-The Petit Bouennaie—under her eyes, pointing out a notice on the fourth page as follow*

Mme. Henriette Emllienne Bardonnel, daughter of Pierre Auguste Bardonnel, late piano tuner Rnede Grand Pont, at Rouen, is requested to send her addressa to M. Thlebault, lawyer, 53

Place dn Viettx-Marche, Havre property. "You must write the lawyer at once my dear—at once.'' "Yes, I am going to, of course, Mm Dufresnes, right off," said Henriette.

The following evening, in reply to her letter, Mile. Bardonnel received word from M. Thlebault asking her to come at once to his office.

To pay current expenses a check for 60 francs was inclosed. Decidedly things •wero looking well, and Mme. Dufresnes remarked upon It. "You were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, my dear. I have always said so. And M. Lconcc—he, too, is very happy, is ho not? Is he going with you to Havre?"

M. Ixxmei', or I^eonce Lewtrpentier, was the

HOII

of a linen draper on the Quai aux

Monies, a promising young bachelor of 28, blond and hearty, but as gentle and timid as ft lamb.

Employed In his father's shop, for papa LecurpenUei* did not believo any more than was necessary in throwing his money Into the gutter, Lconcc could only indulge rarely his passion for the protty little milliner. A bracelet or a gown on her birthday or at New Year's, a few picnics on Sundays during the summer and a few parties occasionally, and that was all.

Restrained, however, by paternal and business exigencies, Leonce had to let -Henrietta take the journey alone from Rouen to Havre.

The lawyer's ofllee

\viw

in the second

story of an old, dilapidated structure at the end of a courtyard. M. Thlebault, a thin little man, with bent llgurc, sharp eyes under his largo oopper rimmed spectacles and a black velvet cap on his head, motioned to the young girl to take a seat on his left opposite the window. "Mile. Bardonnel, I suppose?" "Yes, sir." "You have token care to bring your certificate of birth, as I suggested?" "Here it is, sir."

The lawyer unfolded ho paper and oaref*lly read the statement. '•Pierre Au'guste Bardonnel—so far so good. Correct! Your father left France about I860, did he not, miss?" "Yes, sir. I was then 5 years old. We were going to meet him in New York. My mother has often told mo the rftory. He wrote us three or four times, as noarly as I can remember. But wo never received any further news from him—never. My mothor has bfcen dead six years, and I have no living relation except a cousin at Blbcuf." "Your father, miss, died on Jan. 28, 1870, in South America, leaving a fortuno •alued at 120,000 piasters, or 600,000 francs, of whloh you are the sole heir. To enter into the possession of the whole of this fortuno it will be neoessary for you to go thoro in person in order that you may see my colleague, M. Guaatella, who is tho executor." "Go war down thore? But, monsieur, I" 'We shal I advanco the necessary amount Have no fear on that soore." "And when must I start?" "Let UH see—the Kurydice—the Menso —Friday, Saturday. Ah, here It is—the lberhvfur Buenos Ayivs. You will sail next Monday- That's rather soon. You have just time to get book to Rouen and make your preparat ions. I shall expect, you then, mademoiselle, on Monday next without fall."

Twenty-five days after Henriette Bar donnel, fortified with M. Thlebault's instruct,ions and suggestions, and with the address of M. Guastella, Anibal Guastella, abogado, 18:3 Bolivar street, in her pocket, landed at Buenos Ayres, and repaired, with her trunk, to the hotel, so favorably named Do la Bouue Soupe.

Within an hour after llenriette'a arriv al and before sho had finished her dinner all her netghlxirs at the table, as well as the proprietor and three servants, who spoke French, were already informed of the motive and the object of her journey.

One of her neighbors, the one on the right, was an elegant and seductive Spanish gentleman of 80 years, who murdered French drvfulfully. He answered to the name of Miuioel Alvares and lived at Montevideo, where he was in the cattle business.

Liko a gallant hidalgo* ho offered to aid Henriette in her search, If she needed hltr —in short, he was at the service of made molselle.

The following morning early Henri ette, with an interpreter, went to Bollvaj street to the address of the advocate Gua? toUa.

No Guastella was at the number men tionud, not even an abogado In the build log. Nor was he in any of the neighbor lag buildings.

At No. 125 was a business agent named Carlos Figneras. They sought him, but «1 Senor Figtieras knew no advocate Guns tsLla. He was sure, even, that there was nobody of that name in the whole city. "There is a commission merchant Guastella, 89 San Martino street You might go and see him."

Quickly they departed for this Guastella. He assumi them he knew nothing of what they asked him had never been written to by M. Thlebault at Havre, of whom existence he was ignorant

In what anxiety, in what a horrible dl lsmma, poor Henriette found herself! For two days, escorted by bar Interpreter, she scoured the whole town, visited all lbs abogados, lawyer*, notuuies, eourttert,

business agents. But no Anibal Guastella, no Bardonnel properly—nothing. M. Manoel Alvarez undertook to introduce her to the French consul. "I regret exceedingly, mademoiselle,"

replied

this functionary to Henriette, "to

dispel such an agreeable illusion, but if there had been here an unclaimed French property I should have been the first to know it, and there is none. You have been made the victim of a hoax."

Henriette, when she returned to the hotel, followed the consul's advice by exploring her memory to find some one who had a personal interest in expatriating her and in getting rid of her.

And she found some one without great difficulty. It was Leonce's father, the old scamp of a papa Lecarpentier. Not a doubt of it.

On her account Leonce had let slip several good matches, a Mile. Contois of Lisieux among others. Now they were scheming to make him marry Mile. Hennequin, daughter of a merchant of the Rue St. Sever. "For how many sous did he buy the complicity of that Havre lawyer. But wait, just wait, old wretch! There are judges in France. They give damages there. He laughs best who laughs last."

And boiling with indignation and rage Henriette went back to the consulate, and though without funds asked to be sent back home.

They promised a favorable reply to her request, but she must wait a fortnight. No boat would leave for France before the end of that time.

One evening as she was walking on the arm of M. Mapoel Alvarez and telling him of her mortifications that wealthy and seductive Spanish gentleman murmured tenderly: •SEnrhiuetta, mignon, suppose, Instead of returning to Europe, you should, stay here with me."

Five years later, one morning in May, Mme. Manoel Alvarez, nee Bardonnel, stepped from a train at the Rouen station and directed her way toward the Rue des Chare ttes.

She did not wish to go through France when sho was traveling with her husband without seeing again her native city.

Mme. Dufresnes kept Henriette to dinner and bronglit out for her the very best. "Oh, deary, I always told you that you were born lucky. Don't you remember it?" "And the Lecarpentlers and my little Leonce? What has become of thorn?" "What has become of them? Oh, my dear Henriette, the good God has given them their punishment. "The linen business ran out. It is two years ago slnco the firm of Lecarpentler & Son failed and gave up business. "Four months after you went away Leonce married Mile. Felicite Hennequin, whoso fathor kept a largo Bhop." "I know. And didn't the marriage turn out well?" "You can't really say that it did. M. and Mme. Leonce left Rouen when the failure came. They aro probably living wretchedly somewhore, in Paris perhaps. As for papa Lecarpentler, his troubles have affected him so that he is in his second childhood. He is begging. When you go, you have only to turn up the street till you get in f''ont of the theater, and there you'll see him."

Arrived at the end of the street, Henriette saw seated on a little stool an old babbler who handled feebly a wheezy old accordion. "Don't you remember me, papa Lecarpentler?"

The poor wretch interrupted the tearful strains of his Instrument and fixed on the young woman a stony, iixed stare. "You played me a villainous trick, in your day, with your story of the property In Amcrica. But that's all over now. Come, old scamp, here's something for you."

And sho let fall into the beggar's cap all the gold sho had in her purso.—From the French of Albert Cim.

After nis Money's Worth.

Colonel Frank Bradley went into a well known restaurant the other day, when, looking over the menu oard, his eyes fell on "Puree tomato a la St. Julien." With tho air of a learned professor of the an olent Celtic language, he looked up at the beclouded waiter and solemnly said, Pursy tomato St. Julien." "Yes, sah," answered the gentleman of tho claw hammer ooat and white gloves, and presently ho came back with some blood, colored fluid and set it down before the hungry broker. "What's this you got here, son?" asked the broker. "Tomato soup what you o'de'd. "No, I didn't order tomato soup. I ordered puray tomato St. Julien.' You take this back and get me what I ordered, don't want any of your low down English dishes. I only eat in French, sir. If you are going to put on lugs in this hash house and print in French, then by tho Apostle Paul I shall no longer eat in English. My eyes and ears and palate all belong to the same person, and they are attuned to each other. You don't palm off on me any red liquid like that and make mo believo it has been garnished and seasoned with puray tomato a la St. Julien or St. Julia or St. Peter either. You've got to sling a few faux pas, a 1'elo de so or two and three or four fcmm»de chambre before my palate can put tip with it. You see there is a tele graph! connection between my eyes and uay palate. You go and get mo some pursy a la tho bourse and Champs Elysees et tomato und sauerkraut or I'll out you off, cut you off p. d. q. without a tip." "Yes, sah," answered tho waiter, the oorners of his mouth having joined the back of his head, "dat's jes' what I tole do boss would happen if he didn't done let dem French entanglements alone. I told him dar would bis a resurrection heah."— Cincinnati Times-Star.

Bread o» the Waters.

Two gamblers were hiving tho sunshine on one of the business corners when an old man hobbled by. He had signals of distress all over him. As the dying driver of a Montana coach said of himself, this old man was ou the down grade and oould not reach the brake. This man was once a police justice in this city. The gamblers stepped aside to let him go by.

The old man is pretty feeble," said one of them. "All brote UfVv 2fathing left but his wife."

He saved us many a dollar."

"That's what he did, old man. When the dittle' (detail) used to ran us in, the old man would fine us $3 or 110 apiece and save tis expense of making defense In tiw criminal court.„ v. ,?,* •'Many atiinc." -u "Let's take $500 oat of the game and make Mm a present of it. He needs it now."

HOW EDD1NGER DIED.

After Jose had been shot Sheriff Bowie of Wesverville, Trinity county, took up the trail of the murderer at Lewiston and tracked him to within five ruiles of Bedding. He came into Redding and notified the officers here that he was certain that the robber was heading for the railroad, and that he was positive that he was on the right track.

Constable Pleisch and Deputy Sheriff Chase took the trail, proceeding to Cottonwood, Shasta county, until within a mile of that place, where the road crosses the railroad track, where they stopped, each taking one side of the road. Soon they saw Eddinger coming down the road and commanded him to halt. When the robber stopped, Chase said* "Throw up your hands.

The robber mswered, "I have done nothing." There came a shot from Pleisoh's gun over the robber's head and again the injunction, "Throw up your hands."

The robber threw both hands up and at the same time his pistoL Chase could not see the pistol in his hand. The robber remarked: "There! My hands are up and nothing in them." lf:

There was a fence between ChaSe and the robber, and Chase was obliged to olimb over. When he had got oyer, he noticed the pistol in the robber's hand. Leveling his rifle, Chase said, "Drop that pistol,"when the robber lowered his hand and at the same time commenced firing.

After two shots Chase fell on his knees, and the robber, thinking he had killed his pursuer, turned and commenced shooting at rfeisch. While in this condition Chase took deliberate aim with his rifle and sent a bullet through the robber's heart, killing him instantly.—Redding Cor. San Francisco Chroniola "•,

QUITE A CHARACTER.

Death of the T^ist Slave Sold at Auction In New Haven.

Mrs. Lois Tritton, colored, died at her home in this city Monday at the age of 96. Sho has long been a local celebrity from the fact that she waa tho last slave sold at public auction in this city in

1825.

The original papers of

this transaction are in the possession of ex-Govemor Ingersoll and show that it3 purpose was to give her her freedom. The Bale was by the sheriff under an execution issued on a former judgment against her owner, human goods and chattels having been levied on to satisfy an execution. The sheriff's return" is dated Maroh 10, 1826, and recites that On the 8th of March, 1825, by virtue of the execution, he sold Lucy, the mother, and Lois Tritton, the daughter, as the property of the defendant, to Anthony P. Sanford for $10. A deed of manumission from Mr. Sanford accompanies the documents.

Mrs. Tritton was born in Halifax on Christmas eve, 1799, and visited this city with a family named Tritton in 1820. It was from this family she received the name of Tritton. She returned to Nova Scotia, but came to New Haven again in 1824 or 1826, and after being sold to Mr. Sanford was given her liberty. She has resided here ever since and was a member of Trinity Episcopal church.—New Haven Special

The California Murderer Threw Up Bands With a JPlstol In One.

The particulars of the killing of F- & Eddinger, the man who, robbed Teamster Otto Hampton of Jose & Ellery's freight money and the murderer of his employer, E. W. Jose, whom he had shot and fatally wounded on the night of June 10 at Lewiston, Triwt7 county, while the latter was trying to arrest him for the robbery, show that the fugitive was shot through the heart with a rifle ball fired by Deputy Sheriff Chase.

Manufacturing popular support for royalty has awkward effects sometimes. The other day a so called loyal deputation of subjects waited upon the king of Servia to thank him for trampling upon their liberties by suspending the constitution. According to the ancient custom, they were entertained at a luncheon, at which sladko, the national disli, was served to them on gold plates. After their departure it was discovered that some spoons, which were also of gold, had disappeared. The men were followed, and the spoons were found in their pockets. It seems that the deputation consisted of men picked up on the highways, who were paid by the police to play the part of admiring subjects.— London Letter. .Off,

Those Ancient Coins.

The treasure in ancient coin stately discovered by masons at Mouleverd is believed to be important, the coins belonging to the last centuries before the Christian era and being extremely diverse in character, representing all the emblems of the ancient colony of Tarantine. The treasure seems to have been that of an army on the march, probably that under Hannibal, and from the different coins it contains the route of the army can be determined, as money requisitioned on the way.

THE BLACK DEATH IN CHINA.

Fears That It Win Sweep Over Eastern Asia Before It Disappears.

"Black death," that mysterious disease which has been creating such havoc among the natives at Canton, seems destined to sweep over eastern Asia. Hong-Kong has been attacked by this insidious and fatal enemy, and already hundreds have succumbed to it. The colony is almost shut off from communication, save by telegraph, with other Asiatic ports, and every effort is being made to check the spread of the plague. Strict quarantine regulations have been made, and outgoing steamers on oriental lines carry neither freight nor passengers.

But the germs of the disease seem to be in the air, for latest news is that deaths by the plague have already occurred in Japan. The natives are panio stricken.

The plague made its appearance in Hong-Kong about May 10, when many dead rats were found in the* streets. This is the first sign the disease makes. Usually other animals arestridken before human beings are affected. The spread of the disease was most rapid. In a few days the victims claimed numbered nearly 50 daily. It was even more fatal there than in Canton, fully 60 per cent of those seized dying in about 48 hours.

One cause that led to this result was that there had been no rainfall for a long period, and all streams and sources of drainage were fouL Vigorous steps were taken to secure artificial flushing of all drains, and a thorough cleansing of the entire city was had, but there was no decrease until about the 20th, when several heavy rain storms oc curred.

Health officers made a house to house canvass of the district of the city where the disease seemed to center, and all sick persons were removed to the Hygeia, the hospital ship in the harbor. The dead were taken in charge by the same officials and buried at once in a place especially selected.^

When the disease was at its worst, the deaths in the hospitals -numbered about 80 daily. In some cases whole families were exterminated in a few days. Europeans seem to be almost proof against the disease, although in some cases their surroundings were the same as those of the Chinese. An exception to this is the death of several Portuguese in Hong-Kong.

The cause of the strange malady is a mystery, but it is undoubtedly a filth disease. A physioian who had large experience with the black plague in Pakhoi some years ago said in an interview that it was due to foul smells. The plague's symptoms, as desoribed already, are as follows: With or without premonitory warning in the shape of chill there is a sudden fever rising to 105 degrees or over. There is much headache and cerebral disturbance, aooompanied by stupor. In from 12 to 2 4 hours a glandular swelling occurs in the neck, armpit or groin, rapidly enlarging to the size of a fowl's egg. It is hard and exceedingly tender. With or without a deoline of the fever the patient sinks deeper into a condition of coma and dies usually at the end of 48 hours or sooner. He declared that animals were affected tot, because the germs were near the ground.

Native reports from Canton say that the epidemio is somewhat decreasing there, but many new cases are still reported. It is said that fish are also strioken, and fishermen in some districts have been forced to cease operations.—San Francisco Ohroniole.

The War is Over. A Well-known Soldier, Correspondent and Journalist Makes a Disclosure.-

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave soldiers to the war, and no state bears a better record in that respect than it does. In literature it is rapidly acquiring an enviable place. In war and literature Solomon level], well known as a wrltor as "Sol," has won an honorable position. During the late war he was a member of Co. M, 2a. N. Y. Cavalry and of the 13th Indiana Infantry Volunteers. Regarding an important circumstance he writes as follows: "Several of us old veterans here are using Dr. Miles' liestorative Nervine, Heart Cure and Nerve and Liver Pills, all of them giving splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have never used remedies that compare with them. Of the Pills we must say they are the best com bination of the qualities required In a preparation of their nature we nave ever known. We have none but words of praise for them They are the outgrowth of anew principle in medicine, and tone up the system wonderfully. We say to all, try these remedies." —Solomon Ye well, Marlon, Ind., Dec. 5,1892.
