How a Ohicago Youth Masqer- aded in Female Attire and Caught a Wife, Charles Miller Hires Out as a Servant irl in the Beat Families Masquerading as a Female for a Year Denver Tribune, March A most romantic case of love and anticipated marriage was developed by » Tribune reporter yesterday. One ot the principals, the party to the ‘‘breeches,” has lived in Denver for the year past in female attire, has worked in a housebold capacity for some of the best citizens as a fernale, and was supposed to be a woman, The expectant bride also came to the city a year ago, and has been doing domestic labor ever since. Yesterday the former doffed the female and don- ned the male attire, and BOLDLY ASERTED THE MALE GENDER The latter abandoned the ways of domestic labor and linked arms with the lover went to the West Denver residence of a friend to their await the time of the important ceremouy. At the home of Mrs, Carrie M Kih- bon, No. 174 Twelfth street, The Tribune reporter found the loving couple. The lover was clothed in a bran new suit of the most approved hand-me-down pattern, and wore a wierd blue necktie fastened in a far- out-at-sea-sailor-knot. He looked somewhat ashamed, blushed percep- tibly and painfully, and while convers- g—and in fact during the entire t of the reporter —held a newspa- per in front of his person as though afraid that his figure was NOT QUITE THE PROPER THING to look at under the circumstances. He is a very ordinary looking person, w.th two prominent features of per- sonnel —high cheek bones and very large hands. The young lady is a very handsome blonde of the pro- nonnced order, slender and willowy in ferm, almost regular in features, and blue-eyed. The young couple were very timid when first approsched to recite their history and love, but with a Jittle acquaintance their temerity wore off and they told two stories that make an interesting narrative. Charles H. Miller is the name of the versatile lover. He was bornin Massachusetts, one of a family of two children, the other heing a sister. When three years old his parents re- moved to Chicago, and then his father went into the grocery and liquor business on North Clark street. He RAPIDLY ATTAINED RICHES, but when the fire of 1872 came it de- vastated his estateand left him almost penniless. He resumed business in the same neighborhood, however, and at the time of his death a couple of years later the wife and children were left a reasonable fortune. Out of the inheritance the boy Charles was willed 85,000 in' bank and a property at the corner of Clark and Lasalle streets, fronting Lincoln park, valued at $6,000. The daughter married Mr. John Wilson, who is now the owner of the famous North Side brewery. A year ago Charles took a trip west and made Kansas City his tirst stop- ving place. There, IN A SPIRIT OF DEVILTRY he put on female habiliments, and being gifted with qualities of speech and characteristics of person which enabled him to easily play the part he assumed, his gender was never doubted. He came on to Denver and continued the escapade under the nama of Mary Olsen. He boarded at the hotel, but tiring of the masquer- ade in public places, he sought work in a domestio way through an intelli- gence office, He was employed by Undertaker Walley, and at the home of that gentlemen gave general satis- faction in the line of hired girl. This adventure was tame though, and he cast his eyes about for something more thrilling. Thers came through an in- telligence office a request for a young woman TO ASSIST A LADY IN HOUSE MOVING, But the story goes too rapidly. 1t is co-incidental that Miss Nettie M. Presby arrived in Denver seeking household employment about the time that Miller had opened his masquer- ade. She served with several families, and in September last found herself in employment at the home of Mr. T. T. Frith. Mrs. Frith went off on a visit, and during her absence Mr. Frith moved to a new home on Capi- tol hill. Miss Presby was unequal to the task of woving and arranging the furniture and bou-ehold effects with- out assistance und applied at an in- telligence office for an able-bodied working woman, And thus the lover was gained. During the fow days that THE ADVENTUROUS FEMALE IMPHRSON ATOR assisted in the household he learned to appreciate the intelligence and beauty of the domestic Miss, and only teok his departure after having con- fessed to the part he was playing; and arousing the fire of love 1n the young woman’s breast, The deception was continued, how- ever. Miller went to Central Oity, and after a long absencr, returning to the city and located at the Lindell hotel. ~ He visited the loved one con- stantly, and about a month ago offered his hand and fortune. Preparations were then made (or the celebration of the nutials at an early day, but as Miller did not have enough money in bank here to see them comfortably through the bridal tour, the ceremony was deferred until such time as he could obtain a sum from his Chicago account, Yesterday there was received by him a draft through the First Na- tional bank of this city, and immedi- ately PUTTING ON HIS PROPER GARMENTS he presented it to the bank at a late hour, Tt was then the intention to be married st once and depart for the east on the evening train. By one of those misfortunes which often occur | A at such a time, the intention was de- feated. The cashier, it seems, had some mhuudunhndtn; about the party to whom the draft was made, and faling to identify Miller, figt poned the payment until to- ins Presby is of a superstitious nature and refused to be married on Friday, and 80 the romantic pair will not be united until to-morrow or perhaps until Monday. They will take the firat east-bound train, and after A HONEYMOON JUNKET of a few weoks they will take up their residence at Chicago, in the estate be- queathed to Miller by his father. Miss Presby is a native of Hyman, New Hampshire. From there she went to Lincoln, Nebraska, coming to Denver from there as stated. Miss Presby is 256 years old and Mr. Miller is 26, ~ The one is a Methodist and the other is a Catholic by reli gious persuasion. It is their inten tion to be married at the Emanucl Episcopal church, EUROPEAN (FUNERALS. The Pomp and Circumstance With ‘Which the Ceremony of Sepul- ture is Perfsfimed on the Continent. Chur hman's Shilling Magaei~e. Tn France,as most people are aware, no one meeting a funeral on the strects omits to raise the hat or cap in token ot respect, but in Spain this usage does not exist. When the ‘‘viatique” is carried through the atreets every one is barehraded and kneeling, but a funeral passing along receives no mark of respect asin France. Moreover, while in the latter couatry a deceased person is followed to the cemetary by all his relatives, friends, acquaint- ances, and even by many who are only acquaintances of his acquaintances, in Spain it is the habit to abstain from accompanying the coffin to the grave. If the d funct belongs to the better classes, uiy friends send their car- riages to follow, but they themselves remain at iome. The Spanish ceme- teries differ also materially from those in France. “Thoy are,” said M. Emile Maison, who has resided many years at Madnd, ‘‘but walls provided with drawers, only a few monuments being seen jin the inclosure, erected to the memory of the wealihy or distin guishud.” To leave Spain a d ite customs and halt on Iialy's classic soil, there are one or two things worth mentioning in reference to the burial of the dead, which is performed with a different ceremonial in different parts of the couniry. One remark which applics to the whole of Italy, may be mude, however 1 wincly, that uhe hearse is entircly unknown, Apropos of the hearse, its introduction into France | ! only dates from Louis XIV.’s time; and when it was first used to carry the dead to the cemetery, the innova- tion was loudly condemned by the by the public. At Turin the inter. ment of the higher classes takes place generally at dusk; the followers are her hands to some nnseen party dur- ing the progress of the song, with a wild gesture like n woman hanging up " tnl»F~ cloth on aclothes-line that is too high for her. . You still remembeor the coy, petite, and winning way in which she threw a roluctant kiss at the aadience, which evidently took the bass viol player in the back of the ueck. With what unstudied grace she did it, like agirl taking out a wad of warm gum and slapping it against the bed-room door, AN HONE MEDICINE FREE v OF €08 Of all medicines advertised to cure any aftection of the Throat, Chest or Lungs, we know of none we o rec ommend so highly as Di.

At Naples funeral ceremonies are conducted with a certain parade and powp. The dead man, woman, or child is exhibited, richly dressed, on the bed; sometimes, indeed, the body is thus exposed to view under the the porch of the house, surrounded by lighted tapers and flowers. When the moment arrives for placing it on the bier, the duty is discharged by a religlous community, excepting in the case of the poor, whose remains, as in France, are consigned to the ‘“‘fosse commune,” which is, in fact, nothing but a deep well. In the magnifent Neapolitan cemetery, which forms an amphitheater, there are 365 ot these wells, one for every day in the year. Every day one of them is opened to receive the dead, a quantity of quick- lime is emptied into it, a few pails of water are poured on, and the stone is replaced, to be removed again only at the expiration of a twelvemonth, This is how the remaius of the poorer classes are disposed of. With regard to the wealthier portion of the commu- nity, they are interred in a monument resembling a chapel, The coffin is not lowered into a vault, for the rea- sen that there are none, but is placed in the chapel itself, and covered with a slight layer of prepared earth, which has the property of reducing the body to askeleton within a year from date of interment. The family of the deceased person then proceed with another funeral ceremony. The bones are collected, put into a fresh coffin of peculiar shape, and walled up, the name and quality of the de- funet being inscribed on the stone which shuts in the coffin, A: Palermo the dead are placed in a bier richly covered with red gilt-em- broidered velvet, orina kind of Se- dan chair equally red, and conveyed to the convent. On its arrival the body, after the funeral service has been performed, is lowered into a large “‘souterrain,” which extends un- der the convent gardens. Here the unconfined remains are placed in a vault, the ground of which is formed of extremely fine sand. Each recep- tacle is made to bold six or eight corpses, It is called the ‘‘Scolatojo,” and, when filled, is walled up for a year, on.
