The Vandtlls will join the town of St. Joetpb, Mich., in the erection of a viaduct over Wayne street and the canal which is the short cot from the St. Joe river to Lake Michigan. The viaduct will be 800 feet long and will extend from the top of a high hill overlooking Wayne street clear acro» Wayne street and the /•anal to a point on the road beyondt The plans for the structure are complete and work will be begun as soon as possible. The object in building it is to pre dude the powit^ity of an accident by reason of any oversight, carelessnera or otherwise, which might occur at the crossing of tbe railroad and the street. By the use of the viaduct teams can cross directly over the railroad and canal without danger. The draw bridge which now spans the canal will be allowed to stand order that teams coming from tbe opposite direction can cross the canal under the viaduct in order to pass up the street leading to the factories along the railroad track. The town will assume one-half of the expense and the railroad company the balance.

TKRKK IFFAUTK DAILY NEWS. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1890

Bj MAEY E. BLArE,

N THE spring of 1869 I was induced, for the sake of rest and recreation, to take charge of a young American girl during a tour in Europe. This

young girl was Miss Helen St. Clair, of Detroit, Mich. We two were by no means strangers. She had been my pupil since the time when she was the prettiest little creature that ever wore a scarlet hood, I liave a little picture, scarlet hood and all, that I would not exchange for the most beautiful one that Greuze ever painted. Not that her face bore any resemblance to the pictures of Greuze. It had neither the sweet simplicity of the girl in "The Broken Pitcher," nor the sentimental graces which he bestows on his court beauties. It was an exceedingly piquant, animated face, never at rest, always kindling, flashing, gleaming, whether with sunlight or lightning. Her movements were quick and darting, like those of a humming bird. Her enunciation, though perfectly distinct, was marvelously' rapid. The same quickness characterized her mental operations. Her conclusions, right or wrong, were always instantaneous. Her prompt decisiveness, her talent for mimicry and her witchery of grace and beauty won her a devoted following of school girls, to whom her tastes and opinions were as authoritative as ever were those of Eugenie to the ladies of her court. School girls, like college boys, are very apt in nicknames, aud Helen's was tho "Little Princess," which her pretty, imperious ways made peculiarly appropriate.

I do not know how her parents dared trust her to me for a year beyond the sea, but they did. We set off in high enthusiasm, and Helen was full of mirth and laughter till we were fairly on board the steamer in New York harbor, when she threw herself on her father's breast with a gesture of utter abandonment that would have made the fortune of a debutante on any-stage iu the world. It was so unlooked for that we all broke down, and Mr. St. Clair "was strongly inclined to take her home with him. But so sudden was she in all her moods that his foot had scarcely touched the shore before she was again radiant with anticipation.

I will not linger on the pleasant summer travel, the Rhine ,majesty, tho Alpine glory. September saw us established in tho city of cities—Paris. Everywhere we had met throngs of Americans. Neighbors from over the way in our own city greeted us warmly in most unexpected places. But we had not crossed the ocean merely to see our own countrymen. Iu Paris we were determined to eschew hotels and pensions and to become the inmates of a French homo. Everybody told us this would be impossible, but I find nothing so stimulating as the assertion that a thing can't be done. Two weeks of eager inquiry and we wero received into a family which could not have been moro to our wish if it had been created expressly for us. It was that of M. Le Fort, a professor in the medical college, a handsome elderly man with the bit of red ribbon coveted by Frenchmen in his buttonhole. Mine. Le Fort, a charming, graceful woman midway betgSgpn !?0 and 80, and a pretty daughtt?Wf 17, completed the family. With great satisfaction we took possession of the pretty rooms, all white and gold, that overlooked the Rond Point dea Champs Elysoes.

My little princess liad found a prince in her own country, and, considering the laws of attraction, his sudden appearance in Paris ought not to have been a surprise to her. But, to his discomfiture, and even anger, Helen refused to see him. Sho had bidden him good-byat home, she said they would not be married for three years, if they ever were she was going to devote herself to her music and she did not'wish to see him here. When he had completed his studies and their engagement was announced (it was only a mutual understanding now) there would be time enough to see each other at home. Excellent reasoning! but a fortnight later a tiny hand slipped between my eyes and The Figaro a little note on which I read "Petn Frtkkd—I think I should like to say good-by again. "Yours, Hxles."

The dark eyes looked half *hyly, half coaxingly into mine. /•Well," mid I, "Katrine will mail it for you."

The next day I saw for the first time Mr. Frederic Den ham. He waa tall and slender, with a sallow complexion, rather dull gray eyes and black hair, by no means handsome, tot sufficiently well looking to please a friendly eye. In his manners there was a coldness and reservo which passed Cor haughtiness. He was said to possess greet talents aod ambition, and Helen had tho fullest belief in his genius sod suocess. Not Goethe himself was a greater man in her eyes.

I had frequent opportunities of seeing them together, for, according to French ideas, nothing is more improper than to leave a, young man and woman a moment by thcmselvea. "Was it my fancy that he seemed too much absorbed in himself, too little sensible of the rare good fortune which made him the favored lower of the beautiful Miss St, Clair? It might be eo, but others shared it. •'What alls the AJBmicasaT asked lime. Le Etort. "la ft possible that he Is not in love with that faacmatiBg yoaag cnalurt?

lacu or aeierence to her opinions and respect for her judgment—an irritating assumption of superior wisdom, as if he had worn the visible inscription, "I will accept homage, but not suggestions. Offer incense and be content." Would the little princess be content? I saw symptoms of rebellion. "Do you think I am a little fool, Mme. Fleming?" she asked with heightened color and impetuous tone, turning suddenly to me while they were conversing apart one evening.

November came, mid we were launched on the full tide of Parisian society. Mr. Denhaui had gono to Germany to complete certain scientific studies, and he left his fair betrothed with & parting injunction not to dance with «uiy foreigner. As well shut her up in a cell! Nowhere is there such a furore for dancing as in Paris. Every family has its weekly reception, and every card of invitation bears iu the corner, "On dansera." These receptions are the freest and gayest imaginable. Any person who has the entree of the house comes when he feels inclined. Introductions are not indispensable as with us any gentleman may ask a lady to dance with him, whether he has been formally presented or not, and it would be an affront to decline except for a previous engagement. The company assemble about 10, and often dance till 3 or 4 in the morning. In any one house we see nearly the same people once a week for the whole winter, and such frequent companionship gives a feeling of intimacy. It is surprising how many French men and French women have some special artistic talent, dramatic or musical, and with what ready good humor each contributes to the entertainment of the rest. In every assembly, with all its sparkle of youth and gayety, there is a background of mature age but though a card room is generally open, it never seems to draw many £rom the salons do danse.

In these salons tho little princess entered at once upon her royalty. Her dancing was the poetry of motion. She sang, and the most brilliant men hung over her enraptured. "She was like Adelina Patti," they said, "but of a moro perfect aud delicate type of beauty. What wonderful eyes, with tho long thick lashes, veiling Oriental deptli3 of liquid light! How the music trickled from her fingers and poured from her sinail throat like the delicious warble of a nightingale! What a loss to art that her position precluded her from singing in the opera! Not Malibratt or Grisi ever had triumphs that would equal hers." Eminent painters wished to make a study of her face. Authors who had received the prizes of the Academy for grave historical works sent her adulatory verses. "May I—flirtation—wid you— loavely meess?" asked one of "the immortal forty," displaying his English.

It grew rather annoying. I was importuned with questions, such as: "Will you receive proposals of marriage for Miss St. Claiir?" "What is her dowry?" "Are you intrusted to find a husband for her abroad?" I was tired of answering, "Miss St. Clair will probably marry in her own country." "Her parents would be very reluctant to consent to any foreign marriage." "I cannot tell what Mr. St. Clair will give his daughter. It is not the custom to give dowries with us, as with you."

One evening we saw at Mme. Le Fort's reception a young man so distinguished in appearance that ho was known as "le beau Vergniaud." He was

Bix

feet iu

height aud well made, with abundant chestnut hair, dark hazel eyes, clearly cut, regular features and a complexion needlessly fine for a man. From that time he was invariably present, not only at Mme. Le Fort's, but wherever we went.

One day Helen said to me, "I made a silly speech last evening. I was dancing with M. Vergniaud and we wore talking of that charming Mme. de Launay. I said, 'I should think she might be happy, having an elegant house in Paris, a chateau in the country, and such a handBome husband so devoted to her.' And ho rejoined instantly, very low, 'My dear Miss St. Clair, can I not give you all this?" It was not fair to take advantage of me in that way." "What did you say?' s? "Oh, I laughed it off. I did not think he was in earnest, but he spoke to me again before he went away."

That afternoon Mme. Le Fort came into my room with the look of one who has something important to communicate. "I have been wishing to

Bee

you,"

she said. "M. Vergniaud has taken me into his confidence. He has formed a serious attachment to Miss St. Clair, and wishes to make her his wife. It is a splendid alliance," she continued, warming with her theme "if he had asked for my daughter I would give her to him blindfold. He belongs to one of our old families. You should see his house on the Avenue de Montaigne. Have you never seen him driving with his superb horses in tbe Bois de Boulogne? He has an estate with a fine old chateau in Touraine, a family inheritance. His character and habits are unexceptionable, too," she added by way of parenthesis. "It is not often that you Bind all that in a man of 26. So handsome besides!" "True," said I, "but you forget Mr. Denhain." "On the contrary, I remember him too well to conceive the possibility of his being a rival to Rene Vergniaud «*But did you mention him to M. Vergniaud?* "Yes, and he was greatly disturbed at first, but when I told him that he had no expectation of marrying for two or three years to come, he laughed and said it was of no importance. M. Vergniaud would like to be married in a few weeks, as is the custom with us. but I suppose it will take longer to ad just the preliminaries on account of her parents being across the Atlantic. What dowry has my little jewetT {The inevitable question, always put with as much simplicity and dii-claeas as If one wese asking the time of day.) "I do sot know," I replied. "It is so contrary to all our notioajt, 1 do not think there is a man in Am*k» who in asking' a father for the hand of his daughter would inquire bow roach money be was to have with her.

Highest Meteorological Stations.

The highest point at which regular meteorological observations are made is on a 14,300 foot peak of the Peruvian Andes. Harvard college maintains an observatory in Colorado at an altitude of but 200 feet less than the above. The station on Pike's peak is pushed up 14,100 feet into the rarified atmosphere of Colorado also. In Europe there are but two stations at any considerable height, they being 10,000 and 11,000 feet respectively. —St. Louis Republic.

PHILOSOPHY OF SUCCESS.

WHO SUCCEED believe in themselves men who fail believe in fate. We begin by doing one thing well or ill, and all things follow accordingly. Nature abhors a discord, and each life la sung throughout in the key (as to success or failure) on which it is pitched. We are not unaware of the seeming exceptions. but he that states a general truth must be content with a general acknowledgment—unless the truth is mathematical.

Xj O O

Success is a providence, says the priest. Success Is an accident, »y the cynic. Success is a habit, says the philosopher. The one indisputable thing about it is that success is success. It is probably more of a habit than anything else. To call it a providence is only the priest's trick to bring the grist to his own mill.

An acccident it will never spear to be when the view taken is sufficiently com

prehensive. Yet every successful life—as we count succew, by appearance and not 5y substance—is aseries ot accidents. This wisdom is all old. Tbe ancients said: The gods help tbem that help themselves," and "Kor.une favors tbe brave." These agree more yrith the philosopher than with the cynic or tbe priest. They give the merit to industry and courage, not to power.
