MEXICO’S ARISTOCRACY. Descendants of Ancient Aztec Em- perors and of Hernan Cortez. From the Mexican Herald. Every little while interesting information regarding the descendants of the Aztec monarchs is made public, and, as the peo- ple who spring from the earliest known monarchy on the soil of North America may rightfully claim precedence socially over the “400 of any medern Yankee city, the Mexican Herald proposes to give a few of the more recent facts regarding the line of the Mexican king: | Not long since a newspaper here contained | an article entitled “The Last Descendants of the Aztec Monarchs,” referring to the young son of Don Luis G. fray Hor- casitas and his wife, Senora Maria Dolores Abaliano. The boy, Roberto Luis Cua temoc, Is the fourteenth in descent from | Emperor Cuitlahua As is known, Cuauhtemoc Emperor Ahuizotl, son ef Axayac: consequently, a nephew of Montezu' he married with the Princess Techuichr a daughter of Montezuma. A good ma other facts are mentioned, but they are put | in so complicated and confused a way that it is impossible to unravel the relationships. It is sufficient to know that there wellsproven descendants of the Aztec mon- arcs livirg, and borne on the pension rolls of this government.

BURTON HARRISON. ———>+—_—_ (Copyright, 1895, by Bacheller, Johnson & Bacheller.) (Continued from Thursday's Star.) Im. Synopsis of Part II. Felicia Charlton, a beautiful and spirited girl belonging to an old but impoverished Virginia family, has accepted a position as private secretary to Mrs. Caldwell, a wealthy society leader at Newport, who, theugh meaning no unkindness, has treated her with what she felt to be humiliating coldness. She has, however, formed a pleas- ant acquaintance with a young man named Duncan Moore—a guest of Felicia’s em- ployer—who was at first misled as to her position in the family. Nevertheless, this friendship appears to have developed into something stronger, though Felicia, morti- fied by her humble station and somewhat resentful, has given him little encourage- ment. . That evening. one of Mrs. Caldwell’s periodical dinners, for which the invitations had long been sent out and accepted, was to take place. Feiicia, who was by now used to such things at second hand, when sent down to give the butler the dinner cards and the chart of the seats, lingered, looking on at the glittering table with its burden of silver and wax lights and banks of maidenhair fern and roses. She was no longer so much impressed with mere, ex- iernals as at first. Grandeur, from her point of view, had begun to pall on her. But she had quaint, wistful imaginings of what it would be to be led in to table by such a man as Dunean Moore, for example, and sit there part of it. ‘In this crisis of her rash Hortense, Mrs. Caldwell’s maid, in search of her. , Mmademoisell touch of authorit immediately, dans sa chambre.” m, in her tea gown, sat before her the picture of perplexity—an open note in her hand. “an you imagine anything more vexa- d, pathetically. ‘Miss id Hortense, Madam must Clayton has a headac! Trat girl is spoiled b by being set up as the season’s beauty: and I'don’t believe in her headache in the least. ave racked my brain to think of some ne to replace her, and falled. TI should not mind, but Mrs. Mammon, who thinks it such | a tremendous condescension if she comes to you at all, will not dine thirteen on any ac- count. She would not hesitate to call for her carriage and go home if she found out We were thirteen. There's no help for it. Miss Charlton, you must come down and fill the vacant place. Dress is, I suppose, your difficulty, but Hortense is invaluable in sug- gestion for such an emergency. In all my things she can surely find something you can Wear.’ Feiicia wanted to rebel against the whole of the program, but against the latter part of it she did not rebel. “I have a pale blue crepon that is very nice,” she said, quietly. “It has a low bodice trimmed with a fall of just such old Malines lace as you have on your pearl color, but finer. It was my mother’s lace,” she added, seeing Hortense stare. “If I may wear that, s. Caldwell, to oblige you I will come and cannot come. ‘ertainly, certainly,” cried the relieved breathing freer. “I—er—suppose you won't wear ornaments, Miss Charlton?” “Don't be afraid of that," exclaimed the girl, lightly, and then ran off to her room. Resentful of her enforced positio: licia gliied down stairs just as the were falling into line to go into the dir room. From the shadow under the sta! way she was intercepted and captured by n Moore. T am ectually amd withott solicitation to take you in to dinner,” he sald, offering ker his hand. “I have’ been looking for you ever singe Mrs. Caldwell gave me no- Uce of my gcod luck.” He did not tell her the companied by profuse apologies at impo: jing this service upon a “very good friend.” In his heart, he rejoiced at escaping that conceited Irene Clayton, who could think and k of nothing but- her ow cesses in the social world at Newpor' as the dinner progre: notice was ac- “Loam actually withont solicitation to tuke you in to dinner.” considerable that many ap- lances were cast by the other sent upon his charming little par} , forgetting her woes, arose lly. Her color dé ¥, her anima sible to look upon he man on her other side, a maker opinions in Newport, even turned his k upon the conve of Mrs. Mam- mon ‘to enjoy this delightfully fresh and sparkling little new girl whom Mrs. 1 had been so ch nm exultant re retired more S on nd to share Duncan into the once sulks when he found her attention as free- ly bestowed unon her other neighbor as upon himself. Then, each time Felicia re- turned to him, he w in here. I: does not req S$ much time for sly wight, to wing a shaft into a Cupid, yours man’s bosom that will wrankle there for all time as for me to write this sentence. . Already Duncan Moore, whose desirable- ness es a parti did not in the least affect Felicia, avowed to himself that if he could not win this young woman to be his he would not lock at any other. It may be added that it was in consequence of a fall- ing out with him, whom Clayton hed believed to be her own possession, that the ung lady d failed to be present at the pner, which atforded him nis chance with her rival. “How very, very good of mured Mrs. Caldwell to Mr. the men came ont frem dinnei Tyg said Mrs. Mammon; “and as I and it was all for my sake, I ap- you,” mur- Moore, when preciate it the more.” “Where is that charming Miss Charl- sked Mr. Trent, who had sat upon s right at table. “How one does those little southern thoroughbreds, when they are hoth pretty and merry, as she fs You are a clever woman, Mrs. Celdweil, to get such attractions for your feast. Moore, who had responded to neither lady's speech, stood glaring into the cor- ners of the great dusky drawing room with its pink-shaded lamps, as if in search of her, “I think it likely my secretary has gone to her own room,” said Mrs. Caidwell to Mr. Trent. “I was just confessing to Mrs. Mammon that I had her In to play the uatorzieme on a pinch.” Moore—who saw what had happened,that poor little Felicia, like many another of her sex before her, left alone among the women, had been driven from the field— felt a sudden desire to champion the op- pressed before the world, to which he did not, at first, exactly see his way to give ion, without transgressing pro- priety. “You are really very civil, said his hostess, with a short laugh, Vhy should you look like a thundercloud because Miss Charlton has shown the good sense to go back to her proper place? One would think that, with you, instead of being quator- zieme, this young person is premiere;” and ed again, meaningly. ave Moore his opportunity. not, but shall be, If you are go- ing to be kind enough to give me your help to win her,” he said, where she alone could hear him. Mrs. Caldwell, as if this were a capital joke, was silenced by the earnest expression of the young man’s ey And then, by one of those caprices 0} ‘nature who deligh*s in the de- “Good gracious! I believe you mean it.” velopment of unexpected traits, the wo- man’s heart inside of her crust of worldli- ness was touched. “Good sracious, I believe you mean it!” she exclaimed, wonderin; “I do mean it,” he answered, seriously. “To tell the truth, I have found nothing but good in her,” went on the lady. ‘And now I think she is lucky as well as good.” Thus Felicia’s episode as a bread win- ner in the circles of high society was shortened in the fashion, varied, but sub- stantially the same, in all ages. Soon after the memorable dinner, her let- ters to her mother began to be infused with a spirit that made that good lady wonder and rejoice. And, shortly after that, Mrs. Charlton and the Kennards were surprised by a visit from a gentle- man, introduced through a letter from Mrs. Caldwell, that left them no room to doubt of his right to a cordial reception. In the autumn of that year, Mrs. Cald- well lost her secretary. But then, as she had gained the con- sciousness of virtue rewarded for substan- tial kindness done, she could afford to be complacent in telling the consequences of her most recent attempt to bridge over the predicament of thirteen at table. (The end.) —_— WENT TO THE REAR. se He Was the Rider of ared Horse. But in This C: as From the Butte Inter-Mountain. “The late Gen. John A. Kellogg,” said James A. Logan of the first cavalry, “who fovght his way from lieuienant of a com- pany to commander of a brigade, bought a magnificent roan a few Gays before Gen. Grant began the closing campaign. It was a high-spirited creature, tall, powerful and speedy. Kellogg was greatly pleased with his new possession. His staff had to do a good deal of fast riding for a week before the closing scenes of the great contest be- gan. The general seemed to want every one in the fifth corps to see his handsome roan, so he rode from camp to camp, mak- Ing social calls, his staff, made up largely of new riders, bobbing and jolting after him. There was not a n‘an of Kellogg's military famliy but regretted the birth of that roan, He was jolting their young lives away. “The day of reckoning came at the battle of Gravelly Run, or, as some call it, White Oak Road, March 31, 1865. Kellogg massed his brigade in a piece of woods. About 10 o'clock it became necessary to move quick- ly to a better position and get into line of battle for immediate business, for a divis- ion of the other folks was coming that way, practicing on their famous ‘Yell’ song. Just as the brigade was in line, and almost before it had got its beating heart well un- der foot, the enemy poured a vast sheet of lead at us. Stand fast, men; hold your ground!” commanded Kellogg from” inis prancing roan. “Then came another volley. That, with the roar and ratte of the Union guns, was tco much for the roan. He bounded into the air and seemed to turn around, facing the rear, before he struck the ground. In spite of Kellogg's weight on the bits and his frantic whoas, the roan ‘limbered’ to the rear at greater speed than he had ever traveled while churning the staff into a sideache. Away they dashed, horse and rider, and at a most critical time. It was a hot fight, and no time for the general to imber to the rear. Just as the chief of staff directed an orderly to go to the gen- al's rescue and give him a safe horse, I saw Kellogg slide down the tail of the flying roan ‘and start on a dead run for the line of battle. “It is due to the equine population to say that it was a very uncommon thing for a horse to try to get away from a battle. A thousand men longingly looked for a chance to ‘limber’ to the rear and ‘cool coffee” during a fight where one horse even tried to escape bullets. The man reasoned and the horse didn’t. Most horses in battle, unless wounded, were as unconcerned, ap- parently, as if they had been pulling plows. The man In battle who was as unconcerned as one holding a plow was a fool. Men who say they were as happy and contented in a battle as while at home on the farm or eat- ing a Christmas dinner, lie. Such a thing is impossible, unless, as stated, the man is a fool, and fools didn’t enlist." A GREAT LAWYER RMITY. He General Lost His Te Also Hix Case. From the Chicago ‘Times-Herald. The late Chief Justice E. G. Ryan of Wis- consin was, in many respects, the most notably able man the state ever reckoned among its citizens. He had great learning, particularly in the law. Among veteran rs who knew Judge Ryan there are » Who do not concede that he was ed in the law than any other man of his profession in the state, but he was less fortunate in his practice than many of the first-class lawyers. ‘The late Matt H. Carpenter used to win thost of his cases when Judge Ryan was the opposing attorney, but often lamented that he was not as good a lawyer as his unsuc- cessful opponent. Once Mr. Carpenter said: “Why, if I possessed E. G. Ryan’s legal ability to go with my good nature and skill in controlling my temper, I would not be averse to meeting any lawyer in the world, no matter how important the case.” Yet Carpenter seldcm lost a case when the op- pesing attorney was Judge Ryan. “How is it, Matt, that you nearly always Gefeat Ryan, even when it is plain that you have a pocr case and he a good one?” asked one of the great Senator's friends. “By Keeping my temper and helping Mr. Ryan to lose his,” was Carpenter's prompt reply. That was so. Carpenter knew that his brother attorney was always well prepared when he went into court—well loaded, cocked and primed—and he also knew that if Mr. Ryan did not lose his temper he-would win his gase, so he was careful to see that Mr. Ryan lost his temper, and fired off his perfect load so that it scattered and {ts ef- fect was’wasted. Age took ithe rough edges from Judge Ryan’s temper, so that when he became chief justice he filled the high station in as able and dignified a manner as it ever had been filled. ———+e+.
