SACRIFICES HER Marie Luurent, pover extra the the FORTUNE Idolized Actres Hernelf for the Needy. (Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.) PARIS, June 8.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram.)—Adelina Patti returned to Paris to sing at Marie Laurent’s | benefit at the Grand Opera last Thursday. It was the most superb affair of its kind remembered here Marie Laurent has long been an idolized actress, because of her talent, and, espe- clally because of bher conduct during Franco-Prussian war and the siege of Paris. She was dubbed “The Florence Nightingale of France.” When she retired from the stage she founded an orphanage of arts, where now 500 orphans, abandoned or destitute artists and actors' children, re ceive an education. In such work she bas gradually sacrificed ber fortune until she 18 Dow herself embarrassed. Mme. Patti Jearning of it, suggested the idea of a monster benefit, which netted $15,000. Next day five newspapers subscribed $1,000 each Besides this, Patti, Calve, Rejane, Bern- bardt, Eames and Melba combined to raise a mortgage of $5,700 off Marle Laurent's bome Pattl also telegraphed to Jean de Reszke at Warsaw, that since he has been so lucky at the races, she expected a handsome con- tribution from him. The tenor telegraphed $200, a trifie, which so angered Patti that she immediately sent it back without ex- planation. De Reszke's horse Sarcere had won the Polish derby and his Plckwick had captured the imperial prize. He had captured two other big prizes. The four horses were bred on the De Reszke estate, near Warsaw They were ridden by Cassius Sloan, Tod's brother. Patti will remain here till after the Grand Prix. She goes everywhere accompanied by | ber young husband, and is so visibly in love with him and so prettily jealous of his at- teations to other women that everybody pronounces her charmingly amusing IS HER MOTHER'S PRISONER Mile. Monnier Rescued After Twentye Five Years' De tion. PARIS, June 5.—The sensation of the week has been the arrest of Madame Mon- nler, a rich, miserly landowner of the nelghborhood of Potiers, and her son, a former sub-prefect of the Department of Vienne and a leader of Poltiers soclety, on the charge of incarcerating Mlle.

LONDON, June 8.—(New York World Ca- blegram—Special Telegram )—The king has the Berkeley-Milue afair of last year. He bad arranged to visit Mr. Astor at Cliveden last Sunday from Windsor, but the engage- ment was cancelled at the last moment owing to a'teraticn of the king's plans, made necessary by the reception to the Americans 3| at the castie on Sunday. The relations be- so friendly as at present. There is great curiosity as to how the KIng has been in- duced to change his attitude so completefy. | He will certainly visit Cliveden at the first | available opportunity. | - Mr. Astor is entertaining week-end parties at Cliveden now, representing the most select coterles of soclety, and this bas all been brought about by an intimation from Mariborough house that the king desired that all feeling created by the Berkeley- Milne affair be obliterated Mr. Astor has accordingly been taken to soclety’s bosom again. He has an opera box, but he never uses it himself. It is always at the countess of Selkirk's disposal when not used by Miss Astor, who has lately been seen about a good deal with Prince Victor Dhuleep Sing's daughter.
