THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : MONDAY , JULY 8 , 1889. 3
THE RIVAU
Translated from the Gorman : A
waving while veil of fog enveloped the
outlines of the mountains ; the walks of
Iho park , with the dry loaves rustlinp
nbout them , looked npplcctod , nnd
nround the hotel vornndn , from which
a beautiful view can bo had across the
lake , the grape vines lazily shed their
dnrk crimson loaves under the breath
of the autumnal wind one after an
other.
It could hardly bo called cozy , this
distinguished watering-place , now thut
most of the guests had taken louvo , to-
pother with the dopatting summer it
certainly was no longer a fashionable
place. When the management uf the
retort had seen ( It to reduce the prices ,
winch was equal to declaring the toa-
bon ended , all the guests who laid claim
to elegance or fashion had packed tliolr
trunks , hko so many soldiers obeying a
ccRnmnnd.
' Only a low belated migratory birds
arrived now mid then ; some gouty old
counsellors and other olllcials , who had
but jilst obtained a furlough , and to
whom it was of greixtor importance to
alleviate the sufToring that brought
them to this place than to participate
in the summer festivals of fashionable
Eocioty ; nnd some family fathers blessed
with nn abundance of offspring , mostly
the feminine BOX , who really could not
afford 'tho luxuries of the watering-
place except at this time of reduced
prices. That was all.
And as to the visitors of the regular
Benson ?
Of the guests of the haute saisononly
a low remained , those that could not
persuade themselves to leave this
charming corner of the earth in spite
of the growing inclemency of the wea
ther , and bomo people that found pleas
ure in continuing the intrigues , coquet
ries and love affairs once begun.
Baron Songon undoubtedly belonged
to the hitter class. Ho appeared to
nourish a great deal of interest for the
beautiful Valdlni , a prima dona as cel
ebrated as she was charming , who was
making all the use that she could of the
autumn days to strengthen herself in
this favorable seclusion for the toils and
triumphs of the coming season.
She was a trillo weak of nerves , the
fascinating Vnldini her admirers
looked upon this in a flattering way , as
tin abundance of that "temperament"
which is so necessary for oporu divas
and under- these circumstances it was
praiseworthy that she did all she could
for her recreation.
It certainly was not praise worthy , but
rather heartless and blameworthy , of
her that she was in the habit of killing
the time , which usually hangs heavy
during such recreation , in a peculiar
way ; she played with all the men that
fate brought near to her , as a cat does
with a mouse , or a snake with the bird.
* It seemed to give her as much pleasure
to turn the heads of men as it docs to
the playing child to turn the head of
her uoll.
Of course , Baron Songon ought to
have known that that is the habit of all
prima donnas. For at least a decen-
niuin ho had boon what is designated
by a mild expression as a man of ' 'ripur
" of "a sedate " and be-
years , or ago , , -
ciclcs , he professed a certain experience
in the intercourse with feminine stage
stars. Yes , ho had experience in suuh
things , hut ho could not tear himself
uway from the charm which tho'blotuto ,
beautiful , blue-eyed pseudo-Italian ex
ercised over him , and which gained
strength over him from day to day
while ho labored to escape from the nets
of this Circe. Three times he had said
farewell to the beautiful she-devil by
writing , twice as many times in person ,
a doxen times ho had his trunks packed
but again and again he had persuaded
himself , with irrefutable arguments ,
that it was necessary for him to remain
Btill further at thin place.
The old dandy felt it within himself ,
with the instinct that is peculiar to
Buuh men in such circumstances , thut it
was impossible for him to escape from
his fate ; that ho was subject to that
very" malady which ho had abhorred
through life , and which now made him
EO indescribably happy !
No doubt ho was fn love ! Theodore
Baron von Songon , Who formerly treated
feminine hearts tuj playthings ho was
in love , completely in love !
In level That is a state of mind which
borders on the ridiculous in the case of
n. gentleman who linds it ditlicult to
cover up the bald spot on his crown ;
and that with a singer , of whom it is to
bo supuosed , but no one has a right
to suppose anything bad , not even of an
opera singer , until ho has proofs of it.
Baron Sengon was resigned to his
fate. "Very well , wo shall marry I" Of
course it was not to bo expected that
the least diilieulties or obstacles would
bo in the \7ay ot Baron Songon when
ho wished to carry out such a praise
worthy resolution. Ho had every rea
son to buliovo that the Valdini was at
tached to him. because she had evi
dently preferred him to all the other
butterflies that swarmed around her
and kept a sort of jolly companionship
with him. And a moderate companion
ship , a temperate- friendship , is just
the thing which an experienced man of
the world expects to ( ind in matri
mony.
D Alter thoroughly sounding his heart
ho finally arrived at the bold conclusion
that ho would ask in marriage the hand
of the jolly bon comoradc.
For days ho had deliberated In what
manner this ceremony , which ho had
always thought BO very .comical in
others , should bo put into execution.
Urefrs coat and silk hutV
At one time , it was a rainy forenoon ,
ho almost decided to take these articles ,
EO useful and ornamental at courting
and at funerals , from his wardrobe , but
at the hist moment an uncertain sonsa-
overcame him that before a theatric
princobH a bomewlmt moro romantic
manner of wooing were in place. Ho
did not exactly moan to do the thing us
the hero Lohengrin had done it ; for the
manngors of the resort did not keep a
boat drawn by swans for the use of their
guests. But a walk into the propitious
solitude of the autumnal forest , a sail on
the lake , or something of that sort ,
loomed lit occasions.
As wo said , ho waited rovoral days.
But as the lonurod-foroccaslon for a lyric
state of mind had been scared away re
peatedly by the silvery laugh of the
bountiful woman , ho decided to niter
his tactics. Nothing else would ans
wer ; dress coat and silk hat had to betaken
taken out. In this dignified habiliment
a tea-rose bouquet in his hand , and a
cnmolttv at his oosotn , he wont to call nn
the lady who had performed the foul of
kindling anew the little spark under
the lava of his heart to n roaring flame
and ho received the Intelligence that
my lady was out taking u drive. A
drive with a gentleman who had ar
rived the previous night nnd had boon
received by her with familiarity , Hko
an old ucquantunco.
Ho made inquiries among the hotel
servants , and from them nnd hisobsor-
tions ho had reasons to look upon tin )
arrival ot the stranger as an interrup
tion to his proceedings.
"Dr. Johannes Frenius , editor , Nion-
na. " In this way the rival hud entered
his name in the hotel resistor.
Had Adonis arrived at the hotel In
bis own person , and boon received in
as friendly a uiunuor by the singer , the
Baron would have foil no greater un
easiness than ho did about this hero of
the quill , with his enormous reddish
whiskers nnd his sparkling eyeglasses.
According to the honest opinion of the
Baron , unbiased by any self-delusion ,
this doctor , with his largo statue , was
anything but beautiful. But it is n
well-known fact that critics are danger
ous for innlo and female artists , but
moro than dangerous for the admirers
of the latter.
As a man of the world , the baron con
cealed the unfavorable impression
which this man of letters had made up
on him , although ho wished him into
Bcolzobub'fl company.
"An old friend , madam ; is It not ? "
ho asked , with a cortttln emphasis , .t
tholr introduction. The singer con
firmed this , at the snmo tlmo throwing
a glance at the doctor , which seemed to
the jealous baron like a look of culpable
familiarity.
"Baron Theodor Songon , ono of the
sincerest of my admirers. "
"Alas ! not an old frlondl" added the
baron with dignity. "But not less
sincere in his friendship than , you doc
tor. "
The two rivals shook hands with a
cordiality such as can bo lound only
among people that dislike each other.
And again that mysterious smllo , again
the merry , laughing glance of the
singer.
This affair began to take a decidedly
disagreeable turn. The baron could no
longer stand Dy and HOC this witty chat
terer , with his red board and his mall-
clous satire , iraln stop after stop on that
battle-Hold before the beautiful Valdlni.
It was absolutely necessary for him to
undertake a general attack. It IK In a -
cordnnco with the ordinary course of
things that he who asks for the hind
of u woman first obtains possession of it
On a rainy Sunday the doctor , tired of
the idyllic quietude at the hotel , of the
tedlousness at the table d'hotcandcvon
of the company of the charming singer ,
chose to take a long walk in the near
forest ; this was the moment for the
baron to accomplish a decisive result.
Ho finished his toilet with the careful
ness of a schoolgirl who Is nbout to make
her debut nt a ball. Then ho examined
himself closely in the mirror.
"Well , my boy , " ho said with a nod
toward his counterfeit , "those are nice
stories that wo hoar about you in your
old ago. Yes , yes , my friend , I repeat
it , in your old age ; however enterpris
ing you look twisting your pitch-black
mustache and bracing your chest like
a recruit. Others you might deceive ,
but you don't me. Or do you wish mete
to tell you to your face that this pitch-
black mustache has been carefully
dyed , that the noble and manly curve
of that chest Is accomplished with the
lu-li ) of moro wadding ? Or you perhaps
wish that I should call your attention to
But no ! uiy dear old friend , do not
look at mo so" sheepishly ! I will not
betray the secrets of your toilets ; I ,
before all , have reason to be discreet
about these things. I only wish , as a
friend , to call your attention to the
fact that your youthful appearance be
gins to require some-repairs , and your
manly beauty borne assistance. Don't
you perceive those little wrinkles
around the oyesV It seems to me even
a short-sighted person could sec them.
But the fresh color of your cheeks , the
blooming rod of those lips ? I wager ,
my honored sir , that this youthful
bloom can bo connected , in some
way or another , with a paint
box of full assortment.Vhut is the
bet ? Ton bottles : of Veuve Clitiuot
against a mug of Pilsenor ? Take it ?
You shako your head ? I see. Well , I
could give many moro explanations
about this chapter. If we take all
this into consideration , we come to the
conclusion , my dear friend , that it is
well for you to look about for a wifeand
I have not the courage to dissuade you
from it any longer. So ! Lay your
hair in a little more stylish and skillful
manner. Down with the monocle ; that
makes you look stupid. Now try the
languishing expression on your face.
Now that of joyful ecstasy. Well done !
I am satisfied with you , my boy. Now
go to her , and do your errand well ! "
L'Mftcen minutes after this monologue
the baron was in tho. elegant and cosy
boudoir of the singer. Ho took a seat ,
opposite to her , or at her side , it is dif
ficult to say which , considering the po- _
culiiir construction of the fauteuils
which are so fashionable at present.
' 'You are grave and silent , baron , "
began the singer.
"I am glad that you notice this
change ; it demonstrates to you the im
portance of the matter which brings mete
to you. "
' You frighten me , " answered the
beautiful woman , with a roguish side-
glance.
The baron remained as grave and
dignified as an Indian fakir , tie began :
'Allow mo to tell you of my desire in
a few words , beautiful mada'rn. I will
commoncp by giving you the plain
truth about the financial situation . "
The sphinx interrupted him with her
usual boll-like laugh that laugh which
is peculiar to soprano singers of the
operatic stage.
'But what are your intentions , my
friend ? You begin as if you wished to
ask my hand in marriage1
"You have spoken my thoughts , " ho
remarked hesitatingly , "in all duo
form. "
"Stop ! Perhaps my clruumstances are
such that I must refuse my consent oven
to such an excellent friend us you are ;
I believe you to bo my friend. "
"I understand. The
begin to doctor
tor- . "
tor"Of
"Of course. But ho will hardly give
his consent. "
Tills time It was the baron's turn to
laugh ; iiolun innocent andmerry laugh ,
however.
"I warrant , madam , that he will con
sent ! "
The Valdlni rose quickly from her
seat and boctuno suddenly very grave.
The energy and will power of the baron
seemed to have made a dcop imuression
on her. And after you have onuo suc
ceeded in maxing nn impression on u
woman it is easy to win the game.
"You warrant ? " she said in a low
voice. "Very well , If you can obtain
the consent of the doctor I will not refuse -
fuse to bo yours any longer. We will
moot , again to-morrow. "
Tha happy wooer thought it in place
to express his joy over this concession
by kissing her hand ; but she was gone.
At that moment , a singular illusion befell -
fell him. He thought he heard her
laugh again from the adjoining room ;
it was so natural , ho would have taken
his. outh almost that ho actually heard
It.
It.When
When Dr. Johannes Frenlus returned
on that evening ho received the Bar
on's request for an immediate Interview
in an urgent manner which could suitor
no delay. It was granted. The Baron
requested nothing more nor less from
his rival than that ho should waive all
claims which ho might possibly have
upon the celebrated singer Valdini ,
from whatsoever title , if not willingly ,
then . Ha did not finish the sen
tence. In the conclusion of which a
dual with nibtols was evidently to bo
threatened , for the Doctor Interrupted
him in a tone of most urbauo bonhom-
mio :
"But , Bnron , have you ever considered
what is to bo done with the children ? "
"With the children ? " repeated the
Baron mechanically.
1 "Six children , " answered the doctor ,
politely , "from two to nine years of
ago. "
The Baron loosened his nock-cloth a
trillo.
"Tho opera singer Valdlni "
"Has been my wife for a full decen
ary. "
* * * * * * *
The duel was not fought. The Baron
packed his trunks with the hnsto of an
embezzler who is in dangorof detection ,
and took his departure from the charm
ing watering place that solf-snmo night.

SAPRISTM MORBLEU I
Common Continental Ontli ofn , Very
All 111 Typy Indeed.
It is curious that wo are qulto unable
to realise the enormity of. some of the
commonest continental oaths , says a
writer in Mncmillnn's Magazine. Wo
can , of course , to a certain extent ,
upprniso such terms as sncro , saprlsti
and morbluo ( euphemistic for mort
dipu ) , but on the other handwo wholly
fail to appreciate the swearing value
of mllln tonncrrcs and tausond donnor-
wottor. Even though those latter bo
regarded as an Invocation o' thor ,
the god of thunder and sum
mer heat , wo cannot see anything
very dreadful or juratory in them.
Anglicized they became perfectly harm
less , and would indeed bo welcomed in
the room of some of our own moro
opprobious idioms. "Thunder , " or
"Thunder and ! "
oven lightning wo
consider a very temperate exclamation ;
so. too , thought the author of the tragic
story of the bagman's dog , which may
bo consulted with advantage on this
head. Applying the Johnsonian maxim
of "claro.t for boys , port for men , and
brandy for heroes , " wo should certainly
bo inclined to class cither or both of
them with the claret , nay. oven with
the yet milder variety of Glndstoninn
claret , a vintage happily unknown to the
learned doctor. To our minds they
convey absolutely no Idea of impropri
ety. Wo might go about Donnorwet-
tcring for a month together and not
feel ono atom the hotter for it , or the
worse ; while our character for propri
ety and decent speech would not bo ono
whit damaged , whatever might bo the
thought of our sanity. The Gorman
soul , however , is conscious of a distinct
sense of relief after a judicious indulg
ence in the same pastime. Hence wo
are confronted by the strange paradox
that what is a round oath in ono coun -
try is not evan a smart ejaculation in
the next.

TltJB&TMlSNT.
m ttiis department wo are especially su < cessrui. Our < lanns of superiority over
all others are based upon the fact that this is the only mc.iical establishment manufacturing -
ufacturing surgical braces and appliances for each individual case. We hav
throe skilled instrument makers in our employ , with improved machinery , nnd
have all the latest inventions , as well as our own patents and improvement * ,
the result of twenty years' experience.
The treatment of diseases by electricity has undergone great changes within the
past few years , nnd electricity is now acknowledged by all schools of medicine us the
great remedy in all chronic , special and nerve diseases , for nervous debility , par
alysis , rheumatism , diseases of women , etc. , and in many eye and oar diseases it
in the most valuable of all remedies.
In order to obtain its full virtues , it is absolutely necessary to have the proper
apparatus. Wo have lately purchased three of the largobt and most complete
batteries manufactured , so constructed as to give the most gentle as well as the
most powerful current. Persons treated at this Institute by electricity recognize
nt once the difference between our expensive and complete electrical apparatus
and the common , cheap batteries , in use by many physicians. Over ! ) , OUO dollars
invested in electrical apparatus.
PRIVATE , SPECIAL , NERVOUS
BLOOD DISEASES.
Wo claim to ho the only reliable , responsible establishment in the west making
a specialty of this class of diseases. Dr. McMciiamy was ono of the ( list thorough
ly educated physicians to make a special study of this class of diseases , and Ida
methods and inventions have been adopted by specialists in Europe and America.
He is the inventor of the Clamp Compress Suspensory , acknowledged the best in
uso. All others are copied after his invention. By moans of a simple operation ,
painless and safe , recently brought into use , we cure many cases tjiat have boon
given up as Incurable by medical treatment ( Head our book to men , sent free to any

operation ! ! , appliances and instruments. Our institution is.opun for investiga
tion to any persons , palionta or physicians. Wo invite all to correspond with or
visit us before taking treatment elsewhere , believing that a visit or consultation
will convince any intelligent person that it is to their advantage to place them-
Bolvoa under our care.
