How Notoriety or Honor or lame or Dis-tinction Comes to Woman and How ; She Eeceives It, LA1GELY A MATTER 01 CHANCE. Eecent'Eiaraplo& of lair Females Upon Whom Shines the Light of Local or General Celebrity, Ts there any station of life in which a Woman cannot make a sensation? Hardly. She may be a savage or a sovereign, an odalisque of the harem or nn advocate of people who hinted at her true sex. worn nt by dissipation, bankrupt and harassed by creditors, Sarolta has sought seclusion. Not yot 25 she has woo the name of being the mest notorious woman in Europe, has had her fling, and can look forward to nothing but repentance and rPeop!e who never heard of the Sandwich Islands or of Austria; who couldn't pro-nounce the name of 1'riueess Liliukalam, and have no desire to become familiar with tho details of the career of Sarolta Vtiy, rush from the doors of the tenements.stores and saloons on Cterry Hill, in New York city, whenever a certain pert, self possessed, not unhandsome young woman saunters down tho street. "See," they say to the stranger, "see her? Dat's de rag wat's goln' to marry Swipes de Newsboy. Ain't she a daisy, and ain't she lucky ter collar Swipes!" The "rag" (Cherry Hill for girl) sweeps on, conscious hut impassive. Slio is the admired of men, the envied of women in her circle of life. She is the toast of the hour, tho sensation of the day, and not even the toughest tough of a tough district dare lift a finger or say a word in tho way of insult. Why? Because she is to wed with Simon Jires-Re- r, better known as "Swipes," and Swipes has killed his wan in the prize ring. The girl's name is Sophie Furst, and she is t hodau ghter of a Lud low street pi u mher. While going home one evening she was assailed by a gang of hoodlums who in-sisted that sho should "buy the beer." At this moment of her distress a stalwart slugger rushed up, felled the girl's perse-e- n tors in one, two, three fashion and es-corted her home. Thus begautho acquaint-ance of Swipes and Sophie, and thus through accident the latter has acquired fame and eminence grcat.cnough to sat isfy the heart of any female Cherry Hiller. The wedding takes place in December. The princess, tho countess, the plumber's daughterl Koch in her way has probably achieved tho utmost fame thut the limits of her life and surroundings will allow.

Sho may lie a meteor or a planet a meteor flashing with baleful light along a fast and fiery pathway toward a doom of everlasting darkness, or a planet shining puro, serene, immaculate, unchallenged, a regnant queen amid the myriad majesty of stars. Often the publicity that falls to her lot Is not of her own seeking, hut is a matter dependent on conditions or surroundings beyond the limits of her control. Take, for example, the case of the Princess Li-liukalani, who it is possible may reach the throne of the Sandwich Islands through the medium of a revolut ion at no distant day. She is the sister of King a, and has the reputation of being the niost beautiful and accomplished native woman of Hawaii. The reigning mon-arch's rule, so late advices say, has grown chnoxious, and the people clamor for a change of government, the monarchical i wing of tho opposition insisting that the princess shall ascend the throne, while the other and smaller faction desires a repub-lic. If the revolt proves successful Li-- - liuknlani will have risen to power and prominence through no active exortions of her own. She cannot be regarded as a schemer, but simply as one of fortune's footballs kicked high toward ambition's goal. Her brother, the unlucky Kalakaua, is a sort of dusky Prince of Wales. He loves travel, jolly companions, a good time and freedom from ceremony. When he made bis first visit to America and Europe, ilf-- ' ' COUNTESS 8AKOI.TA VAT. teen years ngo, not even the Shah of Persia created a greater sousatlon. At every period of his progress curious, crowds turned out to see the "King of the Canni-bal islands," and olhcials did their best to shower honors and attentions upon him. Queen Victoria, among others, greeted him as "royal cousin" and hud him to dinner and a state ball. But perhaps among the incidents of that tour tho monarch remembers most vividly his reception at .' Chicngo. At that time 38V4-7- Harvey Colvin was mayorof tho (Jarden City, and because) of the style in which ho ran the municipal-ity had acquired the title of "King" Col-vit- i. The two mouarchs, Colvin and Kal-akaua, met in tho reception room of a ho-tel, while a crowd stood about to listen to t he remarks from their aupust lips. The formal introduction made, the former clasped the lal ter's dark skinned hand and cried, indicating with a nod tho assembled aldermen, "King, you get washed up and cat. some supper, and we'll tako a whirl with the hoys." lc is ot record that tho worshipful mayor and common council of the city of Chicago did not meet in regular session the ensuing evening, and tlmt-th- e gt'utlunmu from Honolulu was almost forced by his suite to take the eastern hound train, his desire being to live and diu where Colvin ruled. If Liliukalntil succeeds him the world will lose in his dis-crowning one of the few monarchs who, to use a race track phrase, "have sporting blood in their veins." Parolta Vay is not a queen or even a princess, bnt she is a Hungarian countess who began a remarkably sensational ca-reer at the behest of others, and kept it up on reaching the years of womanhood it pleased her so to do. Her father, If s 0jh SWIPES AND HIS FIANCEE. Cfoinit Ladislas Vay, greatly desired a son and heir, and when Siu-olt- a was born in 18(16 her mother concealed from him the infant's sex. Sae rew up, wearing the clothes and receiving the training of a boy until her fourteenth year. Then her fa-ther decided to send her to a military school, and the secret was a secret no long-er. Sarolta, much against her will, was put into girl's clothes. She wore them and declared that wheu she came of age she intended to"'tear up the kingdom" with her pranks, the. kept her word. The first day of her majority she donned masculine apparel and set out for Vienna, where she became leader among the young bloods of the aristocratic set. To pay her debts she married Marie Englaaardt, an heiress, who brought her a dowry of 8500,000. The girl went back to her family, but Sarolta kept tho money or rather spent it. Up to date she has married nine women besides Marie Engiehardt, six of whom secured divorces and claim the titlo of Countess Vay.. She bus also fought six duels with Tlie Oldest Veteran of the War, Some time ago an investigation was set on foot for the purpose of ascertaining who could cluim rightfully the distinc-tion of being the oldest member of the Grand Army of the Republic. It was soon established that precedence be-longed to William Field, whose real name was Nathan Frink, and who was born at Deerrield. Mass., Oct. 27, 1800. While a lad young Frink adopted the name of Field, by which he was known for over seventy years. As far back as 1833 he held a commis-sion as captain in the First regiment, Massachusetts state militia, and from 1810 to 1801 he officiated as justice of the peace in tho vil-lage of Harwich. When the civil war began Mr. Field, although over 60 years of age, enlisted as ft private in the Thirty-nint- h reg-iment of Massa-chusetts volun-teers, and served nt the front dur- - WIUjAM' ram ing the entire struggle, being mustered out with his comrades Juno 17, 1885. He was a mem-ber of Post 00, G. A. R., of Franklin, Mass. , and fully intended to be present at the big Boston reunion which recently took place. But illness intervened, and on tho day whim be had hoped to take part in the monster parade of veterans William Field breathed his last. ONCE BELLE OF THE COUNTY. Now in Jail Charged with l'olnonlng Her Husband. MR. AND MHS. GRAY. Itnthor more than twenty years ago Rob-ert Gray, a stalwart young farmer, married Mary June Cravat, the belle of Madison county, Mo., and settled down on a home-stead near Fredcrickstown. After a while the shadow of disagreement rose between them. Then Mrs. Gray ran off with an-other man. Her husband received her on her return several months later, but, natu-rally, the old love between the two was dead. Things went from bud to worse. One day not long ago Mrs. Gray asked a neighbor who was going to town to buy her some arsenic, declaring that sho in- - tended to kill her husband. The man re- - fused, and secured a promise that she would abandon her fiendish purpose, lint it serins that she did not. At any rate she purchased poison personally, and within tho ensuing week Robert Gray was a corpse, having expired in terrible agony. An examiuation of the stomach revealed the presence of large quautities of arsenic. When arrested Mrs. Gray's sole remark was to the effect that she expected to be " ts TUB HOMB OF THE GRAYS, hanged. She spends her time in jnil writ-ing "poetry" of this sort; My husband lias sous from me now lo tbe land vl tho bWt Poor husband, Lie Is dead and I am alone, but he Is at rest; It Is a dnbt which all mortals mu3t pay, Yot ot all tho sorrows I've folt In my day I never knew grlrf till ho whb luken away; As tho sun weut down euth the hill tops And the tihndowN stole in over my head So tho hVut of my life witnt out, And left mo with my dead.

Quayle, president of Baker university at Baldwin, Kan, , holds a high rank among the educators of the irreat prairie stateand in addition en- - joys the distinc-tion of being the youngest college president in the United States. Not yet 80 years of age he has won honors that oft-ene-come to stu-den- ts late in life. Professor Quayla as a youth worked puof. w. a. quayle. his way through school, and achieved a collegiate educa-tion also by his unaided exertions. In 1880 he entered Baker university, gradu--; ated with honors in 1885, and was made adjunct Professor of Language in his alma mater, which position he held one year. Having been licensed to preach lie entered the Kansas conference and took work at Osage City. The trustees of Baker university, recognizing his su-perior talent as an educator, elected him to the chair of Greek language and lit-- 1 erature. In January, 1889, he was elected vice president, and in June, 1890, prosi-- I dent of tho university. Tli Perils of Mountaliiooi ln. Mountaineering has its fascinations, but they are principally the fascinations of danger, which sometimes culminate In disaster. A story has come recently from the Swiss Alps of a guide, named Linda, who on his homeward journey foil fifty feet down a crevasse. He lay Injured and helpless for seventy-tw- o hours before his situation was accident-ally discovered by some tourists, who hauled him to the top of the glacier with a rop. During the seventy-tw- o hours Linda was in the crevasse ho had no food, for he was so tightly jammed be-tween the walls of ice that he could not got at the provisions be earned in a bug on his back. Ho was, however, able to lick the ice with his tongue. No one will bo surprised to hear that his hands and feet were terribly frostbitten; the marvel is that, situated as ho was for so many hours without food to sus-tain anim 1 heat, he was not frozen to death. Again, it is remarkable that the rescuers Bhonld have passed over not only tho exact spot where Linda felt in, but just in time to save him. Linda is Gil years of age. An Ohio Miser's Fortune. The reocnt death of George Gilbert at Ynungstown, O., reveals some strange doings of tho man who was a confirmed miser. During the last (Ifty years he had lived aloue, devoting his time to saving money, which ho deposited in banks. It was his boast that his living tho year round did not exceed three cents per day. lu 1855 ho sold a neighbor a load of hay for :J7. Gilbert punctually collected the interest each year, unci last year he ac-cepted tho principal, it having earned hint over $100. Gilbert leaves an estate valued at from $125,000 to $150,000, and lias no rel-atives living in tajs part of the country. Enjoying a Green Old Age. George E.

It is, according to his theory, the result of a poison generated by germs in tho ali-mentary canal.

He calls the poison tyrotoxicon, and finds it in cheese and nil products of milk. New Orleans Picayune. H Named It. "D'you know wlv.it is to be the new cap-ital of Alaska?" "Yes. That's it." "What?"

One portion receive their regular salaries, the other have to work iu the fields which the church apportions to them, and to de-pend on the gifts and collections from their parishioners. The latter are known as the "white" clergy. Now the synod is working out a plan for putting the entire clergy on regulur salaries and abolishing the Bystem of church collec-tions.
