It made her fame Instantly and she adopted the literary life. Meanwhile, sho had married Henry A. Do Lille, a writer well known in London, Paris and New York, who had aided Napoleon III. in a cofidential capacity, and was mado a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor, but she soon divorced him. She kept on writing, and produced, among other works, 'Photographs of Paris Life,' 'Chateau Frlssac,' 'Women and Theatres Tho Mimic World,' and 'Get Thee Behind Me, Satan.' At the age of thirty-three she married William Wirt Sikes, who was appointed by President Grant United States consul to Cardiff, Wales, and who died in London, in 1883, eleven years after the mar riage. During this period of her life she achieved great literary success in London, chiefly by her description of scenes in the house of commons, from a woman's point of view. She also traveled over all the continent, interviewing celebrities. The emperor of Germany received her, and in Paris she was welcomed everywhere, the younger Dumas being one of her greatest friends. Then came the tragedy of her third marriage. When she was in London she hired James O'Neill as an office boy. When he grew older he became her secretary. Finally, when she decided to return to this country, they were married, despite the disparity in their ages. She was then fifty-three years old and he was thirty-one. By means of a royal grant he adopted her name. Fourteen years later and this was only three years ago she appeared in the Harlem police court, a shabby, worn woman and carrying a trumpet through which her deaf ears could barely catch the magistrate's ques tions. She had procured a summons for her husband on a charge of drunkenness and non-support." day that approximately 40 per cent of the area designated oxcept in Ne vada is now held by individuals through 'some color of title' and it is believed that a larger percentage In Washington and Oregon arc so hold.
