2 A BLUE-BLOODED BECCAR The Danghter of a Titled Englishman Becomas a Tramp. Thrilling Adventures of Sir Edward Harcourt’s Child—Widowed at Soa Starving in a Freight Car—~Going Home to Die. Porr Jarvis, N. Y., July 12 days ago a shabbily dressed, foebl o nan wor of about forty-three years of age was visi- | ble on the stroets here. At station where . she slept she o her name as Elizaboth Benjamin, of Stafford shire, England. On the 7th she disap- vearcd, but wis heard from yesterday in Middletown. Mrs. Benjamin_is on her way to New York, and has walked all the way from San Francisco. Inquiry reveals the fact that she was | the daughter of Sir Edward Harcourt, at one time one of the most brilliant young English orators. Her mother was a va riety actress who lived in Wales to escap the persecutions of Sir Edward’s family who opposed his mesallisnce, When the babe was born she was christened Pauline Elizabeth Harcourt. She was given all the advantages of a superior education, and carly in life evinced great poetical genins, Her mother was a direct des- | cendant of Sir Philip Francis, who is be- | lieved to ha en the author of the | ted political essays which startled | gland from 1769 to 1777, and which | were signed Junius. the police are unsaddled, mules are unpacked, and men and stock keep put of sight in the | foot hills of the mountains. | At sunset the march is rvesumed, the Indiang trailing in the dark almost as woll as by daylight by the use of touch Picture a long line of Indians, silent as death, in single file. Close behind them comes the cavalry, and behind them the pack train. The only sounds heard are the stops of the animals on the recks or hard earth, the mufffed tinkle of the bell on the bell horse of the pack train, ac companied by the sional crack of & sacker as some mule shows a tendency to 'mw the column. smoking or talk- ing is allowed. Suddenly the Indians | halt, the trail is lost, the line breaks, | spreads cut like a fan, and in the dim of starlight men are seen on their hands and knees feeling the ground. After a time some Indian will rise, perhaps way off to the right, and a soft ‘‘Hish!” is heard. The trail is found and the command runs | forward in the new direction. It is all night work and the men have been almost without a sleep for forty-eight hours. Tt | is long time since the stock have been watered, and the strain is beginning to tell on both man and beast. At day-break the mountains have not been reached, toward which the trail runs and the command hunt a depression in the plain where they can rest unseen. Signs of hard riding on the part of the Indians have been found ina number of killed and abandoned ponies, In the matter of a mount they have every ad- vantage over the troops. 1f a pony gives [ out he is at once killed or abandoned, and another stolen to replace him at the first opportunity. Should a trooper's horse give out he has to dismount and lead him —he cannot steal, Walter P. Benjamin, of South Carolina, nephew of Judah P. Benjamin, at one time treasurer of the Confederate States, | of America, met Miss Paulin Swansea Wales, when she was but seventeen years | old. A mutual attachment was formed. | Her father's death, however, summoned her home. twenty-two, to s Benjamin, who was but followed her and contrived | her oces Finally the | dy's mother learned of these stol- views and a terrible scene ensued. Pauline begged to be allowed to marry her American, sweetheart, but her mother remained firm and finally sent her to St. Andrew's, in Scotland, to school By means of prearranged signals the young lady, previous to leaving home, managed to inform her lover whither she was going. Young Benjamin founditcon- venient to visit St. Andrew's frequently, and, in 1860, they » married on Paul- | ine's twentieth birthday, When Lady Harcourt heard the news of her daught- or's secret marriage, and learned that she Lad fled from the school at St. Andrew's, she was stricken with paralysis and ~died shortly afterward, YoungBenjamin came to the Unitod States atonce upon heaving of the rebellion, and enlisted in the con- federate navy, where he remained until the close of the war, He thenspeculated in cotton, made considerable money, and started by water to California, accompa- nied by his wife, in 1870, They had one child, who died on the voyage tothe isth- mus. They were delayed in leaving As- pinwall, and Pauline and her husbapd were both stricken with a terrible fever, which resulted in the death of Mr, Ben- jamin, After the burial of her husband at se the young widow'sreason was partly d stroyed, and at San Francisco she was placed in an asylum. Six_years later, sho escaped and walked to Virginia City. She was next heard from at Corinne, Ne- vada, In the fall of 1878 she wandered through Wyoming. ~ When near the site of the Custer massacre,along Wind river, she was captured by a band of Indians, f what tribe she does not remember, al- Zt:ullgh her description of their, life and bits is very accurate, and proves that her story is & true one. Tho Indians, finding “that she was returning to the home of herpaloface friends, gave her some dried meat, and started her on her way rejoicing. From Fort Reno, Wyoming Territory, to Fort Pierre, in Dakota, she was in company with some soldiers coming east, and in 1879, she came from Fort Pierre to Yankton, and thence by rail to Omaha. From there she followed the track of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad in a bee-line across the state of Towa to Bur- lington, from where she made her way to Peoria, [l She remained there a few months in the care of the poor authori- ties, and then, having become rested, she again began her tramp. At Fort Wayne she was enabled to ride to Toledo. From thence she walked to Cleveland, remaining there until January 18t of the present year. On that date she again pushed forward. Following the turnpike road she found herself at length in Olean, N. Y., from whence she rode in an empty freight car to Hornellsville. When she tried to steal another ride from Hornellsvilie to Painted Post she was unfortunate ; and the car in which she had secreted herself was locked and run upon a side track and she remained in it without food or water three days, until her pounding upon the side of the car attracted the attention of one of the yard men and she was re- leased almost dead. When she reached Elmira she got a ride on the bumper of the express car, but one of the sparks from the enging fell upon her dross and the rapid motion of the train fanned the spark into a blaze and she had another narrow escape from death. “She reached this city by walking on the towpath from Binghamton. She has the koy of a safe deposit vault in New York City where, sho says, hor husband left a large sum of money. This she intends to secure and sail immediate- for Wales where she hopes to end her ays. Trailing After Savages, One of Them. An Indian outrage his been committed. Troops accompanied by scouts start, say twelve hours late, in pursuit of the per- petrators, They march on the trail twen- :?'-fuur hours and “‘strike” water for the st time where the Indians have camped, and on leaving have fouled the spring, throwing in old hides and filth of all kinds, 80 no water is to be had, The stock is allowed graze for a fow hours and then, with scouts in front trailing, the the pursuit is resumed. The hostiles bave chosen the roughest part of the wunmm range, always in a position ere they can see and observe the sur- rounding country for miles, The trail runs up and down rises of more than forty-five degroes angle, and through passes and canyons where ten determined men with breech-loaders could defy a hundred, The trail probably now leaves the mountains and runs across the alkali plain of great lenqth to another range of mountains. 1f the troops reach this plain in daylight it would be folly to go on, as every man and animal could now be seen by the ouposts and runners that the Amu generally leave behind and on_ei of their raiding parties. 1t is now thisy-six hours without water, ana still a to reach & known spring, horses of many The troops Towards evening a scout runs in_and [ reports water, his refilled canteen being | proof. It is off the trail ten miles, but 18 now sixty hours since water has been had, and the animals must have it. The trail is abandonec et, and the con mand pushes as tived men and leg animals can for the point where water is reported. On arriving the water is found to be in & water hole and _strongly im- pregnated with alkali. Halt! The men tumble off their horses without command; a guard is put oh the hole to keep out mules, whose bump of self-interest is more hugely developed than that of any animal, human or otherwise, that exists, and who always break for water, to the detriment of all, if not restrained. The men and scouts drink what they want, canteens are refilled, the horses are then watered, and after them the mules. Re- wed and invigorated by the water, the force sweeps forward to renew the pur- suit. The story of the march is the same nearcity of water, the trail leading in a direction to bring about this result, and avoiding any possible chance of being ap- proached without the sursuers being dis- covered long before they come within striking distance. On the other hand, suppose ‘that by ;1(."..1 fortune and night marching the ndians are 8o closely pursued that they cannot escape without a fight. The trail leads to water, the commanding points around which ave fortified with breast- works built of stone. On rush the scouts, who are leading. The trail is ‘“‘hob” now, and they cast aside all superfluous clothing and spring forward like cats over the rough ground in Nature’s garb with the exception of a breech clout and moc- assins, Wildly oxcited they scatter all over ths hills endeavoring to find shelter from which to deliver their fire with offect. The troops have their horses in a safe place and move forward in oxtend- od skirmish lines, trying in somo way to flank tho hostilos. 1t is a fight now to the death. Officers and men know that if wounded, and the command is repulsod, days without wator, may be three, they are fighting for that as much as anythin; olse.

Consumption may be stimulated by two cauncs, viz: exceptional prosperity and ex- ceptional cheapness; huravun with a de mand resulting from those causes the sup- ply may be and often is excessive.

No,I don’t mean anything of the sort, to the work of the genuine klep- tomaniacs, people who have a mania for stealing, and who never do anything else that is wrong. w, we jewelers sufl from such depredations more than men in any other line of business. We are oblig- e to put cases of rings and other such things in their way, and they immediate- ly take something, Rings or scarf-pins are small and easily concealed. Women are kleptomaniacs oftener than men. 1 don’t know how to account for it, unless it is that they run around among shops where small, portable goods are sold, and sceing what they want within their reach, they gradually acquire a habit of taking them. “Then you think kleptomania is only a habit?” 2. “No, I don’t mean that. T mean that some of these people acquire & habit of appropriating, which grows so strong that it amounts to a mania.” “What do you do with these people?” ““We sénd them in bills for what they take, when we know them.
