6 THE PENALTY OF SUCCESS. Because of Early Toll and Privations Daudet Is Now Dying. "Alphonse Daudet is dying, but in his brief intervals from pain he pluck ily sticks to his work." This brief telegram recently brought grief to the admirers of the brilliant novelist. His task is almost done, but the virile energy and forcible frankness of his books will long secure readers. Daudet's fifty years may be di vided in two near ly equal parts —in the first he suffered from f poverty, in the ', last from ill health, due to that poverty. In ALPHONSE DATJDET. fact, he has been an invalid for a dozen years, and only his indomitable spirit and the unwearied devotion of bis wife have sustained him. In his boyhood in Languedoc he was a very poor and very studious scholar. A little later he was a country school teacher, earning just money enough to keep soul and body together and scantily clothe himself. In early manhood he located in Paris and entered on the life of a literary drudge. A few years later he received the largest sum ever paid an author for a novel—his "Sappho" netted him $100. --000. Between the two dates, however, he toiled bard, was poorly paid and en dured much. He won fame long before he gained a competence; and at the very time when he was patronized by the celebrated actress, Mine. Bohan, and met in her salon such men as Gambetta and Rochefort, nssociating with them and other notabilities on familiar terms, he was suffering for what was to a man in his condition the necessaries of life. His "Tartarin," "Jack," "Tho Na bob" and "Kings in Exile" followed in rapid succession, and Daudet now takes rank as a wealthy author. In his days of poverty be had a brother Ernest, who lived in a little back room on the fifth floor of a tenement house on a salary of $4.50, and saved something to assist tho struggling young author. It is delight ful to learn that the brothers shared prosperity as freely as they had shared adversity. Alphonse was always domes tic in his tastes, and in bis death his wife and family will lose an intimate com panion and loving guardian. LONDON'S LORD MAYOR. Tbe New Incumbent Is Rich aud Com paratively Young. Mr. David Evans, lord mayor elect of the city of Lon don, has several claims to fame, one of which is that he is the youngest man to attain tho chair during the pres ent century. His age is forty-two, his wife is much 3s younger and a |j very stylish lady, and they have \ eight children at present. He is a native of Glam- DAVID EVANS. organshire, Wales, is very rich and is said to be an extremely entertaining gentleman socially. The corporation allows the lord mayor about §50,000 a year, with the mansion house, couch, outriders, secretaries and servants, yet tho incumbent always spends more than his salary. In fact, there is a sort of unwritten law that no lord mayor shall go out of office as rich as he went in, or without adding as much of his own to the outlay as he re ceives from the government. For over two centuries the duties of the lord mayor have been rather spec tacular than practical, yet cases occasion ally arise in which the office is of tragic importance. When James 11, the last Catholic king, fled from his capital, car rying with him tho great seal, aud an archy broke loose on the longest night of the year 1688, it so happened that thf lord mayor was for a short time the only undisputed power. The "bloody judge," Jeffreys, was taken to him for disposal, and the lord mayor was so overcome that he fell in a tit and was carried to his bed, from which he never rose. Near ly a century later, during the Gordon riots, the lord mayor was equally im portant and only a little less helpless. The English all love the ivy. You will recall Dickens's beautiful tribute to this climbing vine, and it seems that the laureate loves it none the less. It is told that seme years ago, when Hans Christian Anderson was visiting Tttmy- Bon, he said to the pott that ivy seemed to be his favorite plant, to which Tenny son replied. "To tell the truth it is. Ivy needs no nursing; it knows neither cold nor heat; it is the plant of immor tality." "His friends all advised him to go on the stage," said the unsuccessful tra gedian'!- fattier, "Yes, I ace now, it was his friends egged him on and the audience egged him off."— \ Washington Star. bamboo goods.
