"DW' UILSOX TIUID OF LIFE. Tkf lilnrkuiailrn Attempt to C'otntuii Nuicide in I'rovidrnce. "IW" Levi Wilson, who became famous by his juit.- ag:dnst liilllp Moen, the barbed-wire manu¬ facturer of Worcester, attempted to take his lite *i the Hotel Dorrance, at Providence, Saturday nlulit, by swallowing' laudanum, lie has been Stopping at the hotel, occupying room 4vS, since his bondsnaf u gave him up and hi.-> wlte left him last winter. About 9 o'clock Saturday night he entered the ufli-e of the hotel, and after holding a few min¬ utes' conversation with the clerk he took his key and start»-d up stairs. When he entered his room be walked dinrtly to the mantel, and, after gaz¬ ing earnestly at the pictures or his wife and chil¬ dren a minute or two, kissed them ami then turned th» ir faces to the wall. He then to tic a package of letters from his coat .ket and lifter n ailing them carefully began cry and wring his hands. A few minutes lar.T he wert to his trunk, took out his dress- Buit, ;t clean >hirt and collar and cuffs, and laid tfcem on trie bed. II*- then read a letter he had received that day from his wife and when he fln- bh.il h-' .-vii ilown and wrote a reply, also a note to tfrtnye crust*, un intimate friend. After placing the three letters on tne bed he walked back and forth a few minutes and then undressed. He stripped to his underclothes and then went to the till or hi> i runk, t<*»k out a small bottle and drank liscontents. A few seconds after he weut to the speaklug-tube. gave the bell a sharp ring and told the clerk to come up, with the Injunction that it w;»s very important. Only a portion of the last word, however, was uttered. The clerk suspected scxneitu w; was wrong and rushed up stairs to Wil¬ son's room .md found him lying on the lloor. Wil¬ son point* >1 to the bod and thru fell back, seem¬ ingly dead. A young student of the t'nlverslty at Now York volunteered his services, but Wilson's pulse grew fainter and f.doter under his treatment. l>r. Abbott, was then summoned, and he gave him a large dose of Ipecac and a hypodermic injection of atrophlne. After sevend nours' work the phys¬ ician considered Wilson out of danger. The note which was ;tddressed to Mr. Cross read as follows: '-Please see thai my suit which lies upon the bed Is put on me. and that 1 am properly dressed. You will allow my wife to visit the hotel and a** ray rem iins, if she desires." The causes which led to Wilson's attempted suicide are pov-rty and alienation of his wife's affections. At a late hour Sunday night Wilson was very weak, and all be said about his act was that the public would be against him, and many would Bay that he tried to take his life so as to cover up borne crime. The Advance of Cliolera. From the N. O. Meiliral and Surgical Journal. Step by step the cholera Is creeping through South America, gathering force as It marches. Be¬ ginning in Buenos Ay res, by the latter part of De¬ cember It will have crossed the Argentine Bepub- 11c and gained loot hold In chill. a telegram from Panama, dated March 9, tells us of Its ravages In that state, and we may catch a hint of their ex¬ tent from the tart that It has already be* n pro¬ posed that the "nation concede a pension to t he famlliesof ali who may die attending cholera pa¬ tients." The same authority Informs us that the people of the Isthmus are growing alarmed, and that vewels from Uruguay, the Argentine Hepub- 11c, Chili, and Peru are not allowed to enter the pons of Jilcaragua, Honduras, or Panama. These are serious signs, and matters of import to otherdties than New Orleans, and other States beside Louisiana. For should the plague reach the isthmus and Mexico there will be small hope or this city escaping, and the flood-gates of New Orleans once passed the Mississippi Valley, and indeed the whole country, may be inundated with disease before there Is time to realize the danger.

Van Brunt, who is only twenty-three years of age, instated a moment, eyed his questioner curiorcly, and laughed in a peculiar manner to hUtoetf. .*1 think," he sai l, after a little, "I think there are a few good people yet in the army; I rne-an people who really want to benefit mankind, but I tea you un-4 or the soldiers, and officers particu¬ larly, are thinking more of womankind.

Advices from Anadarko Indian agency are to the effect that there has been great excitement there owing to the a>-tion of the Kiowas. War talk be- gau over a we^; ago, but i^uanah Parker, chief of Uhe Comanches, not only held his own tribe in j check but influenced th«i better element of the Kiowas. But few of this tribe would listen to hlin, and with their war taik began deprelatlonson t lie <^*ttie men. A band of them roamed over the cattle country, visiting residences and greatly Irlghu-mng the wotnen and children. The mili¬ tary were noufle<l. and Capt. iiall determined to arrest iui*m.

QCKK> Ji tTALIKS SKKAKtTlON FKOM KIVJ MILAN DC* TO THE <4l'IU.N'S 1)AB3Ll.NO IN POLITICS. So* York Suu'« Cable Letter. The gu&^ps in Belgrade and In European court and diplomatic circles generally are enjoying a rare treat, for It Is not often they have the oppor¬ tunity now offered them by the king of Servia and <4ueen Natalie, of (lis.usaing the domestic squab¬ bles of a royal ooupte. The dangerous fondness for dabbling in politics which. In the case of the Empress Eugenie, brought such disaster upon France, seems to have seized upon the queen of Servia. She & the daughter of CoL Keschko of the Kus.-ian army, and, not being of royal birth, ap¬ pears to have lacK-.-d taat royal pauenceaiid realg- iiAtion whii h often enables ordinary queens to U-ar everytuing, even to being driven Into the gr»ve or into a lunatic asylum. Her intriguing relations with the Kus»ianulng party lu sorvia, at.d with in- anti-government aud anti-dynastic party so di gu-.teu the miai^ters that they re- ¦Igaed, whereupon her royal husband forbade her Ot -.ldnng in podtics any mure. This started a quar-»»; that was soon aggravated by domestic m Terences, and now the queen is enUrely angry, *i.<i announces her Intention of going home to Ku.s>aa to uer papa, just like any young lady from Fateraon or Bound Brook. There is no attempt to conceal the misunderstanding, and but lltUe pros- pact of its being patched up. QUEER ARTICLES OF DIET. Sour Delicacies Found in the Chinese and Japanese JIarkets. From the Youth's Companion. Walking through the Chinese market in Son Francisco one sees some very queer articles of food offered for sale.small pats of soft cheese, varnished amber brown, and stamped with Chi¬ nese characters; well peeled chestnuts, with tiny slices of white cocoanut wrapped In neat little cornucopias of glossy cabbage leaf; forty kinds of dried nuts, fruits (whole or sliced), roots and barks. Then there are living turtles and frogs; fowls and fish. alive, freshly dressed and smoked or dried; meats half cooked In the carcass; wreaths of dried oysters strung on bamboo splints; aba- It ines, like black models for dolls' hats; shreds of white cuttlefish, and a host of other edible curiosi¬ ties A stranger might suppose that they were simply curiosities, like the ancient sticks of barber-pole candy exhiblt»d In the dlugy windows of acountry grocery; or, like the hum elaborately decorated with geometrical puzzles in Jelly, to be admired, but on no account to be carved. Not at all. They an* regarded its eatable, and they are eaten. In fact the Chinese and Japanese eat everything that coines out of the sea. All the lishes are good to their taste, andJire caught with great skill. Seaweeds of several sort are sent far Into the in¬ terior. to be used In thickening soaps, gravies and puddings, and are highly prized because they give a relishing flavor of salt, which la a luxury beyond the reach of most Chinese peasants. The use of seaweed Is almost Identical with the very common use of "Irish moss'" by Americans in making toothsome dishes. But, indwd, Ashes and seaweed are eaten the world over, but surely no other people eat the tide-flat animals swal¬ lowed by the natives of Yesso. For example, the most slinply organized of the class of animals to which '.shells" belong are called ascldlana. They grow sometimes singly, sometimes In clusters, and are rooted Immovably to the sandy bottom, subsisting on what the currents may bring to them. In Japan there Is an ascldlan (Cynthia) which Is as large as one's fist. It has no shell whatever, and Is a gray, flabby, tulip-shaped sac, supported on a short stalk. But, In spite of Its forbidding appearance, the Japs pickle it in vinegar and use It food. Another animal growing between the high and low water-marks on the Japanese coast Is a mud- worm called Sabella. It occupies a hard, limy tube of Its own making, and gets Its food, when the hi»,-h tide comes up over its aiding place, by thrusting out a head bushy with tentacles, and sucking in currents of water loaded with minute particles of nutriment, out of this wriggling creature the shore people make a soup, which Is true vermicelli, not a paste imitation of "little worms;'' and it Is said to taste as badly as It smells. A better dish is made from the soft interior parts of the sea-urchin, or ec.Mrnus, large numbers of which lurk along the rocky shores 01 the Japanese archipelago and the northern coast of China. I have seen the liaidas and other coast Indians of the Pacific shores of British America, devouring raw sea-urchins with great gusto, crushing them intheirfists, sucking out the orange-colored cluster of eggs, which constitute the only edible part, amounting to one or two teaspoonsful, and then throwing the thorny caae aside. The minute eggs taste much like oysters, and have been a favorite food of the natives of the bleak coast of AiasKa for ages. on many of the Islands of the Aleutian archipel¬ ago you may see spots dose by t he beach where the grass is always noticeably greener and more luxuriant than elsewhere. When the surface soil Ls removed at these spots there Is found under¬ neath a layer of what seems to be greenish sand overlying the stony or clayey soil of the Island. It is not sand, however, but the powdered rem- nantsof sea eggs that have been thrown underfoot during unnumbered feasts. These heaps are often two or three feet In thickness and cover several acres. They were probably forming for more than 1,000 years, and throughout the layer may be found some interesting stone and bone relics of the race which made them. An Egyptian Funeral. STRANGE BIKIAL OF TUB DEAD IN THE COUNTRY OP THE NILE. A funeral in Egypt Is indeed a strange sight, and the first one the visitor sees astonishes him very much, says the Brookhm Magazine for April. At the head of the procession march a corporate body of the blind, and a certain number of men who pro¬ ceed at a quick step, singing a most Jubilant air, while swinging themselves from right to left. Be¬ hind them comes the funeral car, or rather a sort of bier, bearing a great red shawl, in which the body is deposited. At the extremity of the bier, on a perch, is placed the turban or the tarbouebe of the defunct. Two men carry this bier. They foOow with such high spirits the movement at the head of the cortege that the corpse, rocked in every direction, seems to jump under the shawl that shrouds it. The women bring up the rear, some on asses, some on foot. The first row 13 formed of weepers, or rather screamers, who send forth toward heaven at each step the shrillest notes. The weepers bold In their hand a handker¬ chief, with which they are not solicitous of wip¬ ing their eyes perfectly dry, but which they pull by the two ends behlud their bead with a gesture ttiat would be desperate U it were not droU. On arrival at the cemetery they take the corpse from the bier to cast It, such as it Is, into the grave. The grand funerals, however, take place with much more solemnity. An Important personage is hardly dead in Kg pt before his friends and ac¬ quaintances hurry to the house; during one or t wo days they eat and drink at uie expense of the dead, or rather his heirs, indulging In the noisiest demonstrations. When the hour of the inter¬ ment arrives a scene of the wildest character ls produced. The slaves and women of the house¬ hold throw themselves on the corpse and feign a determination to hinder It from passing the thres¬ hold. ThLs lugubrious traged) is played conscien¬ tiously; they snatch away the comn; they belay each other with blows, and the most violent and frlgtitful clamor ls heard. At last the procession leaves the house and repairs to the cemetery, pre¬ cede by camels loaded with victuals, which are distributed to the poor hurrying In crowds along the rood. All along the road the mourners ana friends of tue family light for the honor of bearing the bier for an Instant-and thus it passes or bounds from hand to hand amid the most frightful disorder. The Interment ended, every one returns to the house of the dead to recommence the fes¬ tivities, dancing, and the mortuary demonstra¬ tions. Supplementary Smiles.

SHE WAS WON AT THE GAMING TABLE BT THE MUCH- MAKK1ED NOBLEMAN. Paris Letter to Chicago Tribune. ITlnce Serge Oalltzin, they say, ls to be married again. This will be his fourth wife, and the other three are all living. What a picturesque rascal Prince Seige is! Though I dont know that he is any worse t han plenty other ltusslan noblemen, Including some grand dukes. Prince Sei^ge, Indeed, oomes of an ancient and noble family, not very distantly akin to royalty. He is also, or was, enor¬ mously rich. His first wife was a Bohemian beer- garden singer. He heard her In a saloon at .Mos¬ cow, took a fancy to her pretty face and married lier. She was pretty, certainly, and sang fairly welL But she was of peasant birth. Ignorant and of questionable occupation, though there are some h< mest girls among saloon prune donne. Still. I fancy she was the be> ter of the two. After a time Prince Serge /fit tlreil of her and wanted a divorce. He couldn't bring anything against her, however, to entitle iiim to it, and she declined to kick over the matrimonial traces to oblige him. So he determined to drive her to get a divorce from him. This he did by bringing a notorious woman into the house and behaving toward her In the grossest manner uuder the very eyes of his wife. As a re- suit she got a divorce from him, the ltussiau court decreeing thai she should retain the title of Prin¬ cess OaUUin, together with the priceless Oalltzin Jewels and the gn at oalltzin palice at Moscow, and (haL he should not marry again. The princess is still living at Moscow with her chlldrenin wealth anu honor. But In defiance of the decree, Prince Serge went right off and got married again, this time to a French lady, of course the marriage was not legal, Out that didn't matter. He stuck to her a year and then got tired, and forced her also to divorce mm. Bui he had to pay for this divorce, too, the court decreeing her an Indemnity of $700,000. which she got and on which she ls now uving a merry life here In Paris. A month or so l iter Prince serge picked up wife No. 3 at Monte Carlo, lie went to Italy with her in the winter and in the summer took her to one of his Kussian estates in the Tosla district. But time has staled even her attractions, and they say he ls going to make her divorce Mm so that he can get a fourth wile. No. 4, by the way, he also got at Monte Cariu. He was m the gambling saloon there with another Kussian prince of similar proclivi¬ ties. They noticed a handsome woman at the other side of th« table. "1 would like to marry her," remarked serge. "So would I," replied his comrade. "Well," said Serge, "let us decide which of us shall have her. Let us begin with 10,000 rubies and play for half an hour, and the one who at the end of that tliue has the most money sliall marry her." "Agreed," said the other, "but let us call her around here t*> watch the play." This was done and they set u> work. Both lost steadily, but Prince Serge didn't lose as rapidly as his comrade. At the end of the hall hour Serge had nearly two- thirds of his money left, while Ms friend was al¬ most entirely "cleaned ouu" The lady accepted t be conditions of the contest, and will presently, no doubt, figure as the nominal Princess Serge oalltzin Ho. i stmcmw Down While Pbeachino..Her Dam Marker, one of the oldest cltlzcns of Martlnsfauiv W.

Tt Is without a doubt the mort BKAUTmn. and the most Nutritious Flour in the World. The Millers have not only the most perfect mill, containing as it does all the most improved Machinery invented up to the present time, but they produce Flour Unsurpassed by any mill in the world. To prove that, we would simply state that a large quan¬ tity of this magnificent Flour is shipped annually to Europe and eaten at the principal Courts of the old world. HOWEVER, Like everything else that has gained renown, some person or persons are trying to take advantage of tbe reputation it has gained by imitating the Name and Brand, and attempting thereby to palm off an inferior article lor the genuine. THEREFORE, Bsanre and see to it that either sacks or barrels read "CERES." and have the imprint of TWO GOLD WT-DAT^ attached. None genuine without the two'gold medals. W. M.

The value of flour depends upon the ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS OF NUTRITION CONTAINED IN THE BREAD IT MAKES. Maryland and Virginia wheat, from which our PATENT ROLLER FLOURS are chiefly manufactured, has loDg been concede! to be of tno*t superior quality, because it has a HI- ITER COM¬ BINATION OF GLUTEN AND PHOSPHATES THAN ANY OTHER. This fact is recognized, not only in this country but in the United Kingdom as well, where the -PATAPSCO SUPERLATIVE" covimavds deci¬ dedly more mtrMV than any other" American flour, thereby clearly demonstrating its superior qualities for making the whitest, nceeteat and moet nutritious Bread.

Tkf lilnrkuiailrn Attempt toC'otntuii Nuicide in I'rovidrnce.

"IW" Levi Wilson, who became famous by hisjuit.- ag:dnst liilllp Moen, the barbed-wire manu¬facturer of Worcester, attempted to take his lite*i the Hotel Dorrance, at Providence, Saturdaynlulit, by swallowing' laudanum, lie has beenStopping at the hotel, occupying room 4vS, since hisbondsnaf u gave him up and hi.-> wlte left him lastwinter.About 9 o'clock Saturday night he entered the

ufli-e of the hotel, and after holding a few min¬utes' conversation with the clerk he took his keyand start»-d up stairs. When he entered his roombe walked dinrtly to the mantel, and, after gaz¬ing earnestly at the pictures or his wife and chil¬dren a minute or two, kissed them ami thenturned th» ir faces to the wall. He thento tic a package of letters from his coat

.ket and lifter n ailing them carefully begancry and wring his hands. A few minutes

lar.T he wert to his trunk, took out his dress-Buit, ;t clean >hirt and collar and cuffs, and laidtfcem on trie bed. II*- then read a letter he hadreceived that day from his wife and when he fln-bh.il h-' .-vii ilown and wrote a reply, also a note totfrtnye crust*, un intimate friend. After placingthe three letters on tne bed he walked back andforth a few minutes and then undressed. Hestripped to his underclothes and then went to thetill or hi> i runk, t<*»k out a small bottle and drankliscontents. A few seconds after he weut to thespeaklug-tube. gave the bell a sharp ring and toldthe clerk to come up, with the Injunction that itw;»s very important. Only a portion of the lastword, however, was uttered. The clerk suspectedscxneituw; was wrong and rushed up stairs to Wil¬son's room .md found him lying on the lloor. Wil¬son point* >1 to the bod and thru fell back, seem¬ingly dead.A young student of the t'nlverslty at NowYork volunteered his services, but Wilson's pulsegrew fainter and f.doter under his treatment. l>r.

Abbott, was then summoned, and he gave him alarge dose of Ipecac and a hypodermic injection ofatrophlne. After sevend nours' work the phys¬ician considered Wilson out of danger.The note which was ;tddressed to Mr. Cross read

as follows: '-Please see thai my suit which liesupon the bed Is put on me. and that 1 am properlydressed. You will allow my wife to visit the hoteland a** ray rem iins, if she desires."The causes which led to Wilson's attemptedsuicide are pov-rty and alienation of his wife's

affections. At a late hourSunday night Wilson wasvery weak, and all be said about his act was thatthe public would be against him, and many wouldBay that he tried to take his life so as to cover upborne crime.

The Advance of Cliolera.From the N. O. Meiliral and Surgical Journal.Step by step the cholera Is creeping through

South America, gathering force as It marches. Be¬ginning in Buenos Ayres, by the latter part of De¬cember It will have crossed the Argentine Bepub-11c and gained loothold In chill. a telegram fromPanama, dated March 9, tells us of Its ravages Inthat state, and we may catch a hint of their ex¬tent from the tart that It has already be* n pro¬posed that the "nation concede a pension to t hefamlliesof ali who may die attending cholera pa¬tients." The same authority Informs us that thepeople of the Isthmus are growing alarmed, andthat vewels from Uruguay, the Argentine Hepub-11c, Chili, and Peru are not allowed to enter thepons ofJilcaragua, Honduras, or Panama.These are serious signs, and matters of import

to otherdties than New Orleans, and other Statesbeside Louisiana. For should the plague reachthe isthmus and Mexico there will be small hopeor this city escaping, and the flood-gates of NewOrleans once passed the Mississippi Valley, andindeed the whole country, may be inundated withdisease before there Is time to realize the danger.

TO THE <4l'IU.N'S 1)AB3Ll.NO IN POLITICS.So* York Suu'« Cable Letter.The gu&^ps in Belgrade and In European court

and diplomatic circles generally are enjoying arare treat, for It Is not often they have the oppor¬tunity now offered them by the king of Servia and<4ueen Natalie, of (lis.usaing the domestic squab¬bles of a royal ooupte. The dangerous fondnessfor dabbling in politics which. In the case of theEmpress Eugenie, brought such disaster uponFrance, seems to have seized upon the queen ofServia. She & the daughter of CoL Keschko of theKus.-ian army, and, not being of royal birth, ap¬pears to have lacK-.-d taat royal pauenceaiid realg-iiAtion whii h often enables ordinary queens toU-ar everytuing, even to being driven Into thegr»ve or into a lunatic asylum.

QUEER ARTICLES OF DIET.Sour Delicacies Found in the Chinese

and Japanese JIarkets.

From the Youth's Companion.Walking through the Chinese market in Son

Francisco one sees some very queer articles offood offered for sale.small pats of soft cheese,varnished amber brown, and stamped with Chi¬nese characters; well peeled chestnuts, with tinyslices of white cocoanut wrapped In neat littlecornucopias of glossy cabbage leaf; forty kinds ofdried nuts, fruits (whole or sliced), roots andbarks.Then there are living turtles and frogs; fowls

and fish. alive, freshly dressed and smoked ordried; meats half cooked In the carcass; wreathsof dried oysters strung on bamboo splints; aba-It ines, like black models for dolls' hats; shreds ofwhite cuttlefish, and a host of other edible curiosi¬tiesA stranger might suppose that they were simplycuriosities, like the ancient sticks of barber-polecandy exhiblt»d In the dlugy windows of acountry

grocery; or, like the hum elaborately decoratedwith geometrical puzzles in Jelly, to be admired,but on no account to be carved. Not at all. Theyan* regarded its eatable, and they are eaten.In fact the Chinese and Japanese eat everythingthat coines out of the sea. All the lishes are goodto their taste, andJire caught with great skill.

Seaweeds of several sort are sent far Into the in¬terior. to be used In thickening soaps, gravies andpuddings, and are highly prized because they givea relishing flavor of salt, which la a luxury beyondthe reach of most Chinese peasants.The use of seaweed Is almost Identical with the

very common use of "Irish moss'" by Americans inmaking toothsome dishes. But, indwd, Ashesand seaweed are eaten the world over, but surelyno other people eat the tide-flat animals swal¬lowed by the natives of Yesso. For example, themost slinply organized of the class of animals towhich '.shells" belong are called ascldlana. Theygrow sometimes singly, sometimes In clusters,and are rooted Immovably to the sandy bottom,subsisting on what the currents may bring tothem.

In Japan there Is an ascldlan (Cynthia) which Isas large as one's fist. It has no shell whatever,and Is a gray, flabby, tulip-shaped sac, supportedon a short stalk. But, In spite of Its forbiddingappearance, the Japs pickle it in vinegar and useIt food.Another animal growing between the high and

low water-marks on the Japanese coast Is a mud-worm called Sabella. It occupies a hard, limy tubeof Its own making, and gets Its food, when the hi»,-htide comes up over its aiding place, by thrustingout a head bushy with tentacles, and sucking incurrents of water loaded with minute particles ofnutriment, out of this wriggling creature theshore people make a soup, which Is true vermicelli,not a paste imitation of "little worms;'' and it Issaid to taste as badly as It smells.A better dish is made from the soft interior partsof the sea-urchin, or ec.Mrnus, large numbers of

which lurk along the rocky shores 01 the Japanesearchipelago and the northern coast of China.I have seen the liaidas and other coast Indians

of the Pacific shores of British America, devouringraw sea-urchins with great gusto, crushing themintheirfists, sucking out the orange-colored clusterof eggs, which constitute the only edible part,amounting to one or two teaspoonsful, and thenthrowing the thorny caae aside. The minute eggstaste much like oysters, and have been a favoritefood of the natives of the bleak coast of AiasKa forages.on many of the Islands of the Aleutian archipel¬

ago you may see spots dose by t he beach wherethe grass is always noticeably greener and moreluxuriant than elsewhere. When the surface soilLs removed at these spots there Is found under¬neath a layer of what seems to be greenish sandoverlying the stony or clayey soil of the Island.

It is not sand, however, but the powdered rem-nantsof sea eggs that have been thrown underfootduring unnumbered feasts. These heaps are oftentwo or three feet In thickness and cover severalacres. They were probably forming for more than1,000 years, and throughout the layer may befound some interesting stone and bone relics ofthe race which made them.

An Egyptian Funeral.STRANGE BIKIAL OF TUB DEAD IN THE COUNTRY OP

THE NILE.A funeral in Egypt Is indeed a strange sight, and

the first one the visitor sees astonishes him verymuch, says the Brookhm Magazine for April. Atthe head of the procession march a corporate bodyof the blind, and a certain number of men who pro¬ceed at a quick step, singing a most Jubilant air,while swinging themselves from right to left. Be¬hind them comes the funeral car, or rather a sortof bier, bearing a great red shawl, in which thebody is deposited. At the extremity of the bier,on a perch, is placed the turban or the tarbouebeof the defunct. Two men carry this bier. TheyfoOow with such high spirits the movement atthe head of the cortege that the corpse, rockedin every direction, seems to jump under the shawlthat shrouds it. The women bring up the rear,some on asses, some on foot. The first row 13formed of weepers, or rather screamers, who sendforth toward heaven at each step the shrillestnotes. The weepers bold In their hand a handker¬chief, with which they are not solicitous of wip¬ing their eyes perfectly dry, but which they pullby the two ends behlud their bead with a gesturettiat would be desperate U it were not droU. Onarrival at the cemetery they take the corpse fromthe bier to cast It, such as it Is, into the grave.The grand funerals, however, take place withmuch more solemnity. An Important personageis hardly dead in Kg pt before his friends and ac¬quaintances hurry to the house; during one ort wo days they eat and drink at uie expense of thedead, or rather his heirs, indulging In the noisiestdemonstrations. When the hour of the inter¬ment arrives a scene of the wildest character lsproduced. The slaves and women of the house¬hold throw themselves on the corpse and feign adetermination to hinder It from passing the thres¬hold. ThLs lugubrious traged) is played conscien¬tiously; they snatch away the comn; they belayeach other with blows, and the most violent andfrlgtitful clamor ls heard. At last the processionleaves the house and repairs to the cemetery, pre¬cede by camels loaded with victuals, which aredistributed to the poor hurrying In crowds alongthe rood. All along the road the mourners anafriends of tue family light for the honor of bearingthe bier for an Instant-and thus it passes orbounds from hand to hand amid the most frightfuldisorder. The Interment ended, every one returnsto the house of the dead to recommence the fes¬tivities, dancing, and the mortuary demonstra¬tions.

Princess Cialitzin No. 4.SHE WAS WON AT THE GAMING TABLE BT THE MUCH-

MAKK1ED NOBLEMAN.Paris Letter to Chicago Tribune.ITlnce Serge Oalltzin, they say, ls to be married

again. This will be his fourth wife, and the otherthree are all living. What a picturesque rascalPrince Seige is! Though I dont know that he isany worse t han plenty other ltusslan noblemen,Including some grand dukes. Prince Sei^ge, Indeed,oomes of an ancient and noble family, not verydistantly akin to royalty. He is also, or was, enor¬mously rich. His first wife was a Bohemian beer-garden singer. He heard her In a saloon at .Mos¬cow, took a fancy to her pretty face and marriedlier. She was pretty, certainly, and sang fairlywelL But she was of peasant birth. Ignorant andof questionable occupation, though there are someh<mest girls among saloon prune donne. Still. Ifancy she was the be> ter of the two. After a timePrince Serge /fit tlreil of her and wanted a divorce.He couldn't bring anything against her, however,to entitle iiim to it, and she declined to kickover the matrimonial traces to oblige him. So hedetermined to drive her to get a divorce from him.This he did by bringing a notorious woman intothe house and behaving toward her In the grossestmanner uuder the very eyes of his wife. As a re-suit she got a divorce from him, the ltussiau courtdecreeing thai she should retain the title of Prin¬cess OaUUin, together with the priceless OalltzinJewels and the gn at oalltzin palice at Moscow,and (haL he should not marry again. The princessis still living at Moscow with her chlldrenin wealthanu honor. But In defiance of the decree, PrinceSerge went right off and got married again, thistime to a French lady, of course the marriage wasnot legal, Out that didn't matter. He stuck to hera year and then got tired, and forced her also todivorce mm. Bui he had to pay for this divorce,too, the court decreeing her an Indemnity of$700,000. which she got and on which she ls nowuving a merry life here In Paris. A month or sol iter Prince serge picked up wife No. 3 at MonteCarlo, lie went to Italy with her in the winterand in the summer took her to one of his Kussianestates in the Tosla district. But time has staledeven her attractions, and they say he ls goingto make her divorce Mm so that he can get afourth wile. No. 4, by the way, he also got atMonte Cariu. He was m the gambling saloon therewith another Kussian prince of similar proclivi¬ties. They noticed a handsome woman at theother side of th« table. "1 would like to marryher," remarked serge. "So would I," replied hiscomrade. "Well," said Serge, "let us decide whichof us shall have her. Let us begin with 10,000rubies and play for half an hour, and the one whoat the end of that tliue has the most money sliallmarry her." "Agreed," said the other, "but let uscall her around here t*> watch the play." This wasdone and they set u> work. Both lost steadily, butPrince Serge didn't lose as rapidly as his comrade.At the end of the hall hour Serge had nearly two-thirds of his money left, while Ms friend was al¬most entirely "cleaned ouu" The lady acceptedt be conditions of the contest, and will presently,no doubt, figure as the nominal Princess Sergeoalltzin Ho. i
