CHARLOTTE CUSHMAN.
THE ROMANCE OF HER LIFE. [Olivu Logan In New JT«rk ihspatuh.] After Miss Cushman had achieved fame in England she made a tour of this country. She was then a woman of middle-age, with a remarkably ugly face, but tall and well-mow! di-d frame. She played an engagement at the National Theatre, Cincinnati. Conrad D. Clark was the lea ling man, many years her junior. He had beea brought up as a gentleman, being a son of a Quaker in Philadelphia. He soon evincsd a liking for the stage, and nothing could keep him from it. As far as theatrical talent went he had not mistaken his vacation. He possessed a voice of marvelous power and beauty, a fine stage prescivce, a brilliant and cultivated mind and fascinating manner.), but he was a man of 110 moral principles, anil drank to excess, not at that time, however, sufficiently to prevent his attending to business Miss Cushman was struck with his polish and wit, his talent and cultured tone, not nearly such general acquisitisns of actors then as now. and particularly not in the Far Wes-, as tho C^icen City was at that date.
Conrad Clarke was one of the moit promising young actors of his day, and supported the great tragedienne BO much to her satisfaction that an aequnintanship sprang up between them of more cordial character than was customary for her, as she usually kept people at a great distance behind the scenes. From conversations on acting in the theatre, Clarke soon began to call at her hotel to receive particular instructions in the parts he was to play with her—then he escorted her home from the theatre at nights, and it was plainly to be seen that she looked with marked favor on the young actor. One eveningshe was at the wing ready to go on as Meg Merrilees, I playing the boy in "Guy Mannering." 1 was standing bv her side, and Mr. Clarke was a few steps oft" flirting desperately with a lovely young actress, who had been chris.ened "'1 he Poodle-Dog," from the way in which she dressed her hair, which was just as they wear it ncw-a-davH, but then thought a wild crazy style.
The star had been giving me a few stage directions, and impelled by I know no:, what impulse, I suddenly asked. '•What, of all things in this world, Miss Cushman, would you rather be?"
She replied, as, iinpulsiyely glancing at Clarke, and sighing: "I vould rather be a pretty woman than anything else in this wide, wide world," and on the stage she rushed to shriek through'Meg Mcrrilea.'
The stage has 6harp contrasts, and this was one of them. "What was Miss Cushman saying to you?" asked Clarke, insinuatingly.
Somewhat reluctantly I told him. lie gave along whistle. "Did she say that? She would rather be a pretty woman! Jealous, by jingo!"
After this he assumed a bolder from, flirted no more about the tcenes, anu became obsequiously attentive to her. lie traveled with her a.short time to support her it became arecognUed fact that he was the great star's protege, and next it transpired that she had engaged him to go to England with her.
This, was a happy period for them both. Frankness being one of her chief characteristics, she made no secret of her admiration for his talents, and liking for him personally, anu of her intention to forwaid his interests as far as lay within her power. Whether she loved him as she had loved another in her school-girl days is dillieult to determine, but her manner bjcainc more gentle and woman like, she was imperious with her underlings, and gave a great deal of time td teaching him his parts. His feelings were easily probed Conrad Clarke did not love Charlotte Cushman. Mis nature was too selfish to permit him to feel BO pure and disinterested a passion as love in its highest" sense. He was enchanted with her mental gifts, dazzled by her-position, and eager to take advantage of her partiality to help him up the ladder of lame to fortune.
Matters had stood thus for some months. One evening Miss Cushman was going to the theatre, alone, when a weak, haggard-looking woman ap proached her, with a baby in her arms. She was a small, red-haired, fragile cieature.Laying hei hand on Miss Cushman arm, she said: "Miss Cushman, I think a vyoinan ol your genius and position might have plenty of admirers witnout taking up
with
the husband of a poor woman like me." The trrgedienne paused in blank amazement. "Are you talking to me?" she asked. "1 am." "And vou say I have tanen your husband from your" ••Ye6—you—Charlotte Cushtnann. "I don't know you and may 1 ask the name of that precious husband of yours?" "Conrad Clarke," was the reply. "What!" exclaimed Miss Cushman, aghast, "I did'nt know he was marrisd." °"Yes—this is his baby," "Good heaven,
woman,
you surprise me.
1 ask you to believe that 1* knew nothing ot your existence until this moment. And now let me go as I am late but relieve your mind, Mrs. Clarke, as far as I am concerned. When this engagement is over, he never acts with me again.
So saying, the great actress hurried away. She had received a blow, but she met it with as brave a front as she had many others in her not altogether smooth pa in life.
CLARKE ST\RTLBD.
All smiles, bows, and honeyed words Clarke greeted her that night. She gave
a
death-wlow
to all his hopes, not as ten
derly as many a woman so situate*! might have dor.e, but with characteristic dccis
,0"ciarke,"
she said, loudly, in presence
of ever.) body, "if ou ever dare to open your mouth to me again. I will jump straight down your throat. I will, by
So
unexpected
done,
was this shot, that Clarke
fairlv reeled under it. Oil learning from his wife what she had
he became furious at what he declared to be a malicious scheme to rum him, and leaving her he swore never to with her again. Annie Clark easny obtained a divorce from him, and shortlyafter married an actor named I orrest, of Cleveland with whom she lived wrechedly, and in a year or two died miserably, her whole career having been sad and unhappy from first to last.Nor was Clark a fate any better. He gave himself up wholly to drink, sank lower and lower, and finally perished, an outcast a begger and was laid ir. a drunkard's grave.
By a «trangc concateration of circum
(tops*
stances, Clarks child was adopted and most tenderly reared one of our brightest wits—the onlv one of his peciiar caustic kind left—-a man v. ho wields a wonderful weapon ir. his pen, who has two par ties for and against him—one who hate and fear liim, the other who love and praise him—Dort Piatt.
Some one who passed that night with Chailotte Cushman told me that on arriving at honve after the performance, she sank down on the floor and crouchcd there in her clothes in an abject despair until da break. She had been touched in her affections. At middle age a woman often loves more fervently—more with her mind than her heart—than in her green and salad days. She had also been dceplv wounded in her pride—she had designed to 6miie upon an obscure actor, had tried to raise him to an equal pos't ion with herself, and he had deceived her as to to his status—had neglected a wife or her sake.
Never after when his name was mentioned would'shc say more than, "He is a clever actor, a verv clever actor."
It is not in a spirit of idle gossip that I have related those heart episodes in the life of America's greatest tragedy actress, but because it is pltasant to believe that she was not solely and always the hard and grasping woman of the world that her outer life proclaimed her—besides all the persons in this latter ?rama are dead, therefore no one can be pained by reading these facts. «-.
THE KRUPP GUNS.
WHAT TIIKV ARK, AND WIIATOAVK THKM TIL KIR RL.PCTATLOV. Front til. J»uisvlllcCourier-Journal.
It is not quite certain whether Krupp has given reputation to tin* Prussian artillery, or ti'.e Prussian artillery has given quick reputation to Krupp. ft is certain, however, that in the last ten years the Prussian artillery, using for the most part Krupp's system of breech-loading rifled cannon, has achieved a very enviable reputation. It is also certain that the Krupp guns would have achieved as much repute even if it had come to tltem slower. The Krupp guns are made, of cast steel, composed ot puddled steel and pure wrought iron, melted in crucibles and then run into large ignots, which are worked under powerful steam hammers. In loading, the breech block is druwn out ouly far enough to allow the charge and projectile to pass through a hole in its end an exterior lever, working on a hinge starts the block, which, being guided by proper grooves, can be readily moved in or out.
The various calibers are forged from a single ingot up to the nine-inch gun. The larger guns are built up by shrinking successive hoops of steel over a central steel tube, and in these a s'ight modification is made so that the charge and projectile are inserted at the side of the breech instead of through the end. The larger calibers are from six to eight, eight to nine, nine to ten, eleven, twelve and fourteen ii.che*. The heaviest Krupp guns used at the siege of Paris, were six-inch, weighing about ooo pounds, and firing fitty-five to sixty pound projectiles, anil they were opposto the heaviest French naval guns. Both the French and Prussians attribute the success of the Prussians in their late war to the excellence of the latter's artillery, which whenever practicable, was employed in mass but there is no question that the superiority of the Prussian field guns was very much enhanced bv the skillful manner in which they were handled. Many of the battles of that war were artillery combats, in which the Krupp gun bore a conspicuous part. The attack on McMahon at Worth was made under cover of a battery of ninetysix guns. At Gravelottc over three hundred guns, mostly of the^ Krupp make, played upon the French infantry and lorced it to retire. At Sedan 750 guns brought death to 10,000 Frenchmen All through that war the cannon's roar sounded ttie praises of the Krupp gun.
The Kruop projectiles are ol cast-steel, lead-coated", anJ take the rifling of four aised rings on their surface. The deep grooves cut into the steel to retain the lead reduce the strength of the shells so much they can contain only very small bnrsting charges compared with those of some other guns. Thus the Armstrong and Whitworth 9inch shells carry charges from ten to fourtoeen pounds, while the|Krupp 9 inch shell contains a charge of only four pounds. The R-inch seacoast Krupp gun sending a 209-pound projectile, is used with great cffect up to 1,800yards against ships covered by four-and-a-half inch plates, and at same range the nine-inch gun, with 297-pound projectile, uoes serious injury to six-inch armor plates. Fourteei. inch guns have hoerk made by Krupp, which, with 150pound charge, fire shells weighing 1,080 pounds, exclusive of shell charge of 17 pounds, or a solid shot weighing 1,212 pounds. These large guns, with carriage and turn-table, weigh about 90 tjni the gun alone weighing 112,000 pounds, which is not quite so much as the American twenty-inch Rodman gun. Tne English consider st«el guns dangerous, and this objection might attach to the Krupp gun were it not that the Rodman prismatic powd?r, which gives extremely low pres sure, is exclusively used for them. Nearjly all the European powers have adopted the Krupp system for their heavy guns anii the Krupp field pieces are now in very general e. Turkey Roumania and Servia were among the first to fol low the example of Prussia in this respect, and Turkey is now wcil supplied with field artillery of this character.

Form as Obtained by Distillation.
Catarrh, in Ms extent and destructive force, stmidn next to Consumption, and is closely allied to it, in certain co istitutions the transitions from one to thy other is only question of time. It is therefor': a singulai' thing that those afllictcd with it should not make it the object of 1 heir lives to rid thi inselvcs of it. A ningle bottle of any remedy cannot, in the chronic stage, effect a cure, nor even bring the system under its influence fully. In many w'ch cases the liones and cartilageof the nose are eaten away, the organs of hearing, of toeing, and of testing, so affected as to be r.:-id-rod useless, tlw »vula so elongat and inflamed as to nroduce constant and distressing cough. The, return 10 health must necess'irily be slow, 1111dor the most favorable circumstances, when so scripusly afflicted, but as lliu evidence of its groat value daily 'comct to we become more and more satisfied that there does rot ovist a case of atarrh that cannot lie cured by a judicious and persistent use of Sandfor 's Radical Jure for Catarrh. The relief in evervcaso obtained from ihellrst dose is an indication of what it will do when the system is brought constitutionally under its influence.
