MANY WIVES AND MILLIONS
Only One of the Laic I , M , Singer's '
Families Yet Unpaid ,
The Young Children by the Lat
Mrs , Singer
Living on Allownnccs and Only Ono
Nearly of ARC Tlio Invontor'a
History.
Mr. David ITawloy , n tall , alondor
whlto-haircd man , brought to Mr. W. M
Skinner , clerk of the Surrogate's court o
Wostchestor , in White Plains , yesterday ,
a bundle of what looked like legal papers
They wore full of figures , and among
them wore sums six , seven , and eight
numerals in length. They wore Mr.
Hawloy'a accounts and report of his work
as executor of the will of Isaac M. Singer
inventor , millionaire , father of twenty-
four children , and head of five separate
families. Because ho must await a decision
sion of the court of nppcnla in a matter o.
commissions and costs. Mr. Hawley was
unable to file the panorsandthcir contents
are not yet made public.
Mr. Sinjor'a estate was inventoried a
about § 8.000,000 , but it proved to amount
to about twice that Bum. Mr. Singer
was a poor man when ho first intrustoc
his confidential business to Mr. Hawley
and ho continued to rotioso the utmost
confidence in him until ho died , when ho
loft to him the settlement of his vast cs
late. Mr. Hawley has never given eocur
ity for the faithful performance of hii
task. Ho could not , and there are no
many per/ions in the country who could ,
but there has been no complaint that ) u
has not done his work faithfully am
shrewdly. All the heirs have boon paic
except the children of the iait Mrs.
Singer. She had six children , and all ox
cupt ono are living with her in Paris.
That ono , Adam Mortimer Singer , will
soon become of ago , nnd may reacli here
on any day in the near future to claim his
share.
Mr. Singer wao born in Schaghticok
in this state , and in early manhood livei
from hand to mouth as a wood turner am
general mechanic. In 1830 he was mar
ied by a country 'squlro to Miss Catha
rine N. Haley. Hia first child waa born
in 1831. Then they lived in Waterloo
and ho waa a shiftless follow , capable o
turning his hand to any sort of work ,
but not doing well at anything. Ho waa
given to consorting with other women be
sides his wife , and gave evidence of bcinj ,
a natural-born actor , able to imitate any
living thing ho had ever hcaid or soon.
In 1837 a child was born to them in this
city , and from here ho started out as a
strolling player' From the stage on
which ho waa performing in Ballimoio
ono night ho saw a very beautiful young
woman , 18 years old. lie became en
amored of her , Bought her father's house ,
introduced liimsolt , proposed in timoand
waa accoptbd.
This was Mary Ann Sponsler , wife or
companion number two. Singer hurried
to Now York to got wife number ono and
her family out of the way , and ho and
she quarrelled and separated. Ho brought
Mary Ann Sponsler to this city , and
when she insisted that ho must marry
lior ho told her that ho was in trouble
with another woman ; that ho had just
grounds for a divorce , and after he got it
10 would have their relationship legal-
zed. Miai Spoliator had to share a great
dcal , of poverty with him , eVen moro , in-
lead , than Mrs. Singer had endured.
Hifla Spoiiblor took lessons to fit herself
or the stage , and with her hua'jand , un
der the names of Mr. and Mrs. Morritt ,
) lnyod temperance pincoa in churches all
over the country. Per thirteen years
, hey followed this life. She called him
"father , " and ho called her "wife. " They
wore wretchedly poor. Evooythinc they
liad in the world waa in the ono-horao
wagon in which they wandered about ,
and time and time again they htid to
pawn than and its content ? , and their
liorso to get tood. While they worp in
Chicago ho invented a reaping machine ,
and litter on a machine for carving typo ,
tie began to have money in cense
quence. In 1850 ho had completed the
inventions that make ui _ the
Singer sowing machine , from which he
was in time to accumulate the colossal
fortuuo ho loft behind him. Again ho
came to Now York , and thia time it waste
to sot up a stylish establishment at No.
14 Piftli avenue. The first and only
true Mrs Singer "corns to have boon for
ce ton. She was living in Brooklyn.
Number two was every whore regarded as
the inventor's wife. Nice people visited
the house. Her visiting cards and iuvi-
tatious to parties that she gave bore the
name of Mrs. I. M. Singer. She ordered
goods at the dry goods and other stores
an Mrs. Singer , and Mr. Singer paid the
jllls. She and her companion visited
lor people in Baltimore as man and wife ,
and so registered whenever they stopped
n hotels. She bore him ton children.
Catharine Haley had berne him two
olii'ilron. ' He used to bonst that | boya
and girls came alternately with him. Ho
Siad a huge and gaudy vehicle capable of
Boating twonty-uvo persons , and in this ,
with Miss Sponslor and her ten children ,
lie used to ride in the park every day.
[ n 18 JO , twenty-four years after ho had
K-ft hli Brat companion of his poverty ,
Mrs. Catharine Haley Singer , he got a
divorce from her ,
S ngor led a faat life in those days , and
wan vury frequently soon on the uvouuo
11 company with women whom Miex
Sponsor's frlonda wore not acquainted
with. Seven monthsaftorho was divorced
Hiss Sponftlorridhij ; in her own cjtniugo ,
saw him 1 : his carriage with Mury Ann
Mcfionleal. She screamed until ho saw
lor. Ho came home and boat her and
ihe had him arrested. Then ho wont to
Europe , and in the year that he wan
away the fact was revealed that ho hud
icon living with two otlier women in
this city who thought themselves his only
companions at the same time that ho was
getting his divorce from his first wife and w
outling Mar/ Ann Sponsler his second
one. Alary McOonigal , for instance , had
inrnn him five children. Ho and she
ivcd together an Mr. and Mrs Mathowa.
Mias Mary E. Walterwho lived with him
under the name of Merrill , had added
one other child to the 1UK Mary Ann
Spoiulor began a suit for divorce and was
awarded $8,000 alimony then the larg.
eat amount over obtained , Singer tried
to compromise with her. She accepted of
round rum of money and the valuable
louse 18'J West Twenty-eighth etroot.
But within a month after she was di >
vorced she had secretly married John E.
Fostor. She hurt herself by a fall from
chair , and believing horaelf to be dying ,
told ono of her daughters of the mar-
riauo. Her daughter's husband , n Mr.
Proctor , was an otllccr.of the Singer com
pany. Mr. Singer speedily learned about
| io wedding and cauard the divorced
wife to relinquish all okimn upon him ,
aad to vacate the lisusc iii Twenty-eighth
street , for which ho had not glvon a deft
to hor. She wont to live with Fontor
Number five next appeared. She wa
a French woman whom ho had mo
abroad. On Juno 13 , 1805 , seven wcok
after number two had renounced ho
claims upon him , ho waa married in thi
city to Isabelle Eugenie Boyer , under th
name of Isabcllo E. Summorvillo , am
with her wont to Paris to live. H
caused to bo built in Yonkers a palatin
homo in a great nark , and when it wa
finished returned to this city , and invitci
hundreds to the house warming. Th
public know of his complicated family af
fairs , however , and but few wont to tin
house. In 1873 ho resolved to liv
abroad , Ho bought a nobleman's fin
estate in Oldtown , Paignton , Devonshire
England , and began tno construction o
an enormous caatlo , to bo called "th
wigwam "and to contain a theatre , riding
hall , banqueting halls , and all the conveniences
vonionces his money commanded. It wan
not finished when , in July , 1875 , ho diet
on that caUto. Those were the familio
ho loft behind him :

Those last are the only onca not paid.
They will get their money as fast as they
come of nge. Their mother married a
baron in Paris , and ho has since bccomo
the Duke do Campoaolice. By marryint
aho lost her life interest in the Englisl
estate which waa then valued at $5,000 ,
000 , and is now worth a great deal more.
She has had to give up the cnstlo am
park at Paignton. She had qbout 5,00 (
shares of Singer stock , however , which
is paying 40 per cent , and is worth aboul
a million and a half of dollars. All nor
children , cxcopt the eldest , live in Paris
with her. Ho haa left her , and lives in
Englahd in princely atylo. The others
draw upon Mr. Hawley as they noer !

and carriages , and tutors and servants.
They nro worth 81,500,000 each.
Mr. Singer's will was contested by
Mrs. Snonslor Singorwho proved a mar
riage with Singer from the time ho was
divorced from Mrs. Haley Singer until
she married Forstpr a period of lea *
than ono yoar. This madu her last child ,
Caroline Virginia , a legitimate daughter.
All the other children by her thus bucotiio
illegitimate. Her eight children received
§ 1,760,000 , but she got only a small sum
for the liquidation of the costs of the
auit. Mrs. Mathowa's five children re
ceived about § 1,750,000. Mrs. Meriti'a
child got about § -100.000. Of the chil
dren ot Mrs. Catharine Haley Singer , the
irat wife , ono got § 500 and ono $10,000.
The estate waa largely composed of
Singer compiny stock , and has about
loublcd in value. The last wife was the
only ono to whom a louacy waa left.

Queen Esther" In Denver I'rof.
Is Smoked lOut by the
Denver Papers.
Denver Noxvs.
In a musical sense , the execution of
"Esther , the Beautiful Queen , " at the
Academy last evening was a miserable
failure ; in a comedy scnsn it uns a shining
success ; financially it did not pay ex
penses.
False pretenses killed the show. It
waa advertised ns nn opera , but it is not
an oporn ; the public was assured that it
had been'newly revised and dramatized , "
but it is the aamo old'oratorio of Esther"
which haa been worn threadbare by ama
teur Sunday-school choira in all parta of
the country ; a number of good singers ,
including Miss Hewitt , Mias Mathowa
and Prof. Winter , were advertised to take
leading parts , but they withdrew for ono
canao and another.
Before the curtain was rung up , Mr.
Segar , the projector of the perpetration ,
clad in a cheap red night gown and a
tinsel crown , came to the footlights and
announced that Prof. Winter had do-
muiided hia pay § 35 , in advance. Prof.
Winter was to take the part of King
Ahashiiornp , and Mr. Segar said that ho
would have to assume that character him-
aolf.

Wo are willing to exercise that charity
which wa.i ruado mask for the por-
'orniance in criticising the .manner in
which tha or.xtorio waa rendered. The
natrument.il music waa .furnished by
one piano. The young lady who pounded
; ho instrument did her level beat to
coop within hailing distance of the vocal
ametuers , and if she failed moat of the
; imo it waa not her fault.
Mr. Segar , as King Ahashuorua , looked
ikn the king of clubs , and his singing and
ictiug reminded the audience of the rela
tive unimportance of the nind'ijpot in a
; amo of "aoven up. "
Mr. Castle , who essayed the role of
iligh Priest , is n fine singer and ho did
itabcattodo justice to his part. But
, ' 10 ample cotton velvet robe in which he
VMB lost mndo all ellbrta seem ridiculous ,
[ * i swept about him like a fog around a
ihotry pole , and ho reminded ono pain-
r lly of a section of barbed wire fence
covered by a horse blanket in mourning.
The funniest p.irt of the show was the
ifth act. The semi-chorus of Jewish
> oya and Persian maidens came on in
hia act to sing the praises of the king and
[ ueon , who are supposed to occupy seats
on the throne. The pianist started in to
ilay Old Hundred or some equally solemn
nusic when n lively march wna required.
Ir. Segar King Ahshuorus with all
lia kingly robes of red ilannel and tin
oil became nervous at thia massacre of
iiusic and called Hainan to the throne
vhilo hu picked hia way , all crowed aa
10 waa , through the chorus down the
tops into the orchestra to the piano stool.
) nco there ho supplanted the pianiat and
hrummcd out a march suitable to the
occasion.
At the end of the sixth act ho again
went before the curtain mid made a
peoch denouncing the press for throwing .
old water on his enterprise and assuring
ho audience that if the show waa kept dt
up for a week the public would regard it
a great outrage. Everybody present
seined to coincide with this view.
It ia threatened that the performance ]
vill bo repeated to-night. It is possible
hat the people who took part in last
voning'a fiasco may bo willing to face an
udienco again , but few of those who saw
ho first performance will believe it. The
infers deserve a bettor fata than to
trmko a laughing otock of themselves ,
'hoy have been given no autiluiont oppor-
unity for rehearsal , and under existing
irourmtancea they cannoc do themselves
uatice. P
Aa for the Homo of the Friondleaa it
ooa not stand the shadow of a chance of
citing a.ceut out of the proceeds. The
otal receipts last uight would' not payer
or light ! < g up the house , and it ia quite
icrtain that the attendence will be tiiuch ,

would be glad to have the strength
of the humblest laboring man ,
And tthcre arc many people who
arc > neither kings , emperors , nor
millionaires , whose blood is thin ,
whose circulation is poor , who arc
suffering from lassitude and docility ,
and who know not the pleasure ofa
hearty meal , nor the enjoyment of
being able to do a good day's work.
If such people will put some iron
into their blood , they will vitalize
and enrich it. They can do this by
the use of Brown's Iron Bitters , the
purest and most excellent iron med
icine ever made. Thousands who
were weak , languid , pale , and pros
trated , arc now happy to say that
Brown's Iron Bitters brought them
up and gave them new life. c
