I d eo-chc- -j. g-j- ten-Icnt- , He was 47 yearB old and his death was unexpected. Ills physicians say he succumbed to apoplexy, superinduced by the attacks made upon him by the German socialist organ which had preferred against him the graveBt charges of immorality. For some days there were rumors that he had committed suicide, hut this Is strongly denied. The physicians who were in attendance upon Herr Krupp have drawn up a statement, which for the present 1b kept secret, but It is understood that it declares he died of apoplexy. it appears that after Herr Krupp regained consciousness, after his first stroke of apoplexy, Tie insisted on discussing with his solicitor, Herr Korn, the prosecutions of the newspapers for publishing accusations against him, and that thereupon the second stroke followed. Emperor William attended the funeral, which took place from the little old house where his father lived poorly while striving to cast the first stee1 gun. The will of the deceased gunmaker, sceofdlng to a statement, provides that the works (hall not be turned into a Joint stock company under twenty-fivyears. Meantime the revenues of the whole property will go to the widow, and after her death to the eldest daughter. The value of the estate, estimated by bankers who were connected with Herr Krupp. is $75,000,000. This does not include securities owned by the deceased outside his manufacturing plants, which may possibly amount to as much more. The suicide theory hss not yet quieted. The Cologne Gazette says: Whether he died of Lhock due to ex citemcnt and embitterment over the attacks made upon him or whether, adjudging himself guilty, he took his own life, arc questions which, however. answered by the accusation itself, must halt at his death."

On the Luncta. one night, when the Sixth artillery band was giiing an j air concert, his eye was caught a voluptuous by beauty in an open Stanhope. Htid he never rested until he had formed her acquaintance. Now, this was a most difficult matter to accomplish, for Spanish old world Ideas of propriety and all that had to bu circumvented, the haughty old padre aud madre of the girl had to be reconciled to his advances, and the girl's inborn prejudice against anything and everything American had to he overcome. Then taere was also an absurd fellow named Loretto Cervlllo. an of the defeated Spanish army, who claimed the senorita as his aiflancea. Senorlta Lola did not evince any eepecial affection for him; she did not give way to those bursts of Spanish In passion he had read of so often arou his fiction; and it struck coldly dor at tl$r to i link Jvjf possibly she was- trilling with him. and that her acceptance of Ills attentions was prompted morel;- and solely from a love of diversion and excitement.
