At the request of a Chicago paper Mrs. Reich-” ard tells how the incident happened in the following words: It isn’t much of a story, but this is how it all took place. Friday evening, March 18, I sat up later than usual writing, having cut the telegraph instrument out of the office, as the noise disturbed me. I had been in the habit of leaving the instrument ‘‘cut into” the effice for company I staid in the depot 2 years old. the during the alone with night, as my babe, I think that my having cut instrument out was what caused the men to talk as they did, for had they heard the instrument they would have gone away. About 10 o’clock retire, and while I began to prepare to I was disrobing I heard footsteps coming from the direction of the water-tank.

Trilby was indeed a shooting star, coming, no one knew whence, shining with rare effulgence for a short time and suddenly losing her brilliance and fading into nothing. She came from nothing and to nothing she _ returned. The lives of the other great prima donne of the period offer no parallel to this extraordinary story, says the Chicago Weekly. The greatest singer of that day, Giuila Grisi, began life as a chorus girl, showed remarkable talent and an exceptionally beautiful voice, studied hard under good masters, was gradually promoted on her merits, was or many years the reigning prima donna of Europe, declined in popularity with the advance of age and died in retirement peacefully and quietly. Trilby, on the contrary, leaped to celebrity at a bound, blazed forth as a star of the first magnitude and was suddenly extinguished when the magnetic force that controlled her orbit failed to act. So it was with the other great vocalists. Their lives have been written, even to the minutest detail. Their history is the common property of the. world; there is no mystery about it. One singer, however, whose fame was world wide, but who now is well nigh forgotten, offers in her career a striking resemblance to t £ Triby: ilby.
