Henry M. Stanley's Careor. Henry M. Stanley was horn hi 1810 In Den- blglislilre , "Wales. According to some ac counts ho first saw light In a llttlo tenement nt the foot ot Denbigh castle , which , with its wretched nclgnborswas , pulled down some ycari airo. According to others , the coltnjfo wns outside of Denbigh. His mother , who died only a few years ngo , was poor. Her nnmo was Kowlnnds , andhor child was bap tized John. John's father , her only mentis of support , died when the child was two years old , and the mother took a position as n ser vant. John was sent to the St. Asaph work- houso. Whan hq wns fourteen yean old ho escaped from the worlihouso nnd found his way to Liverpool , whence ho worked his way on a sailing vessel to Now Orleans. There ho obtained work with a IVIr. II. M. Stanloywho , took atent ( Interest In the boy , and , having no children , adopted him and pave him his own nnino. Sir. Stanley Jled without mak ing a will , and his young protogo was once more turned adrift Into the world. At the breaking out ot tlio civil war ho jolnod the confederate ranks , was taken n prisoner at Pittsburg Landing , but succeeded In making ills escape by swimming across the Mis- Stanley returned to Liverpool , nnd for n short t line worked there In a broker's ofllce. but soon got tired of the drudgery of clerical work nnd returned to Now York. The war was still going on. This tlmo Stanley pre ferred to Join the federals , nnd enlisted on the Unship Tlcondorogu. On ono occasion liOBwnm , under a shower of bullets , from his ship , n distance of DUO jards , attached n line to a confederate steamer and secured herns a prize. For this daring act ho was made an ofllcor. In 1SCO Stanley made a trip to Asia Minor , nnd the following year was sent out west by the Now York Tribune as Indian war cor respondent. At the close of the wars ho ac cepted a position on the Now York Herald as foreign correspondent. Howas sent to Abyssinia during the war between King Theodora nud the Kngllsh. There ho made nn enormous success. The fall of Migdnla was published In the New York Herald twenty-four hours before the olllclal news reached the English government , nnd they Hist heard of It through , a cahlo dispatch sent from Now york. How ho started to find Llvingstono nnd how ho succeeded , all the civ ilized nnd a great part of the uncivilized - - . civilized world Know.

Sixteen years Interne laid a wreath on the missionary explorers grave ns ho passed It on his vuiy to the nltnr to pligut his troth to Miss Dorothy Tonnout. * The denth of Llvlnestono Increased the y ' . Interest the civilized world felt In Africa. Another newspaper expedition was sent out by the London Dally Telegraph nnd the Now York Herald , with Stanley at IU haul , to explore nil the great lakes nnd rlvors in the Interior of "the Dark Continent , " nnd to penetrate into these parts where no white man hnd ever been , Again was Stanley sue- „ cossfnl , nnd ho had only returned to England but n few days when ho wai sent for by the king of the UolL'lans , and started oil to found the great Congo state. "What ho hns done Mnce 1ms already been told m the dispatches of the day. Htmiloy in Onmlia. Henry M , Stanley caino to Omaha In the fall of 1800. Ho had just returned from some of the Indian wars nnd sought this city as the most promising plnco on the Missouri. Omaha was small , but ll was full of llfo and energy. Through it thousands vcro flocking to the crcnt country beyond , and In It bun , drcd.s were building up fortunes which , to this day , hnvo not been unimpaired. It was 11 great novs center. To it wns tributary no- counts of accidents on the Union Pacific , which was then creeping across the prairies ; muidors and other outrages peculiar to bor der civilization , nnd the serious In formation regarding the movements of Indians whom the march of empire was gradually pushing toward the sottlngsun. Mr. Stanley \vns altvo to tlio situation. Ho got the news and for ward edit to the .Missouri Republican nnd the Now York Herald , the latter the p.ipor which ho horved so well In other lands nnd which eventually was the mentis of bringing him to the attention of the people as ono of the greatest explorers the world has ever known. ThOHo were not the days when everybody had money. They were not the days when Stanley had money. Remittances came In slowly and living was high. Like ninny another newspaper man at the tlmo Stanley doubtless felt the want of a ready bank ac count nnd a p'ethorlc will let. He , however , adapted himself to circumstances. Ho hud been In Abyssinia , had slept in tents and wltliout them , when ho had money he stopped In the hotel hero. When ho hadn't ho found a couch down upon the tables of the Republican office nnd as frequently pen-Imps on the print paper which was piled In the press room. The Republican ofllco In these days was sit uated ono door cast of the entrance to the Academy of Music , now known as the Poo- plo'a theater. Tlio entrance to the academy was off tlio hall , from which there was an opening to ono of the upper stories of the Republican ofllco. "While Stanley was 0111- ployed on the panor ho mude the ofllco hi ) headquarters. 'There ho gleaned a great deal of the noxvs from the ulro and the oxchangei which ho transmitted cast nnd there a greal deal ot Ids matter wns prepared for the proas. . Ho generally used a desk , which 10it that tlmo v as old , and which , through the countless changes of nianngcmmit and the policy of the paper , has since been known oi the "Stanley desk. " Major Uafcouibo won , at the tlmo. editor ol the paper. It would have afforded him pleas ure to meet Mr. Stanley but ho was compelled to go to Southorland , Florida , with his fatn lly. Iho major remembers Mr. Stnnloy wel nnd p ya n tribute to his industry , his mnnll ness , hl.s devotion and ais exceeding uullitj as a gnthoror of news. The propinquity ofttho ofllco to the thcatci * as also the appreciation which Mr. Stanloj possessed for the drama brought him Inti toof contact with the actors , with a number of whom ho bccaniovory friendly , When dts engaged , hU leasuro moments were spen With thorn and the iutercourso was mutually antlsfuctory. Ills genial , frank and heart ty ; manner could bo readily appreciated by aotor > who are proverbially among the most heart tr ] dinlrors of good fellowship la the world. la these days there was a stock company at the I Academy playing nightly to crowded houses. I Among the members were poonlo who hnvo ' risen to fnino : .loan Clara Walters , Annlo I Ward , Ucorgo D. Chaplin , Milton Nobles , C. W. Couldock , the Hcrnauilcz family and a host of others. Their performances ho wit nessed nightly when otherwise not engaged and several time ) ho undorstudlcd parts to bo ready at hort nbtloo to fill n vacancy which might bo occasioned by slcknoss or de votion to tbo bowl. Stanley , however , did not attract universal attention. Ho was known only to thoio with whom ho associated. Nevertheless there nro many who did know him who have moved away , and others have gene whcro ho nnd they may meet only on the great judgment day. Of those who survive may bo men tioned General Estnbrook , who was an intl- mnto friend nnd a great admirer. On nioro Ihnn ono occasion ho befriended the genial scriboaml at times strenuously aided and en- couraftcd him in his laudable asplrntloas. Dr. Mercer was also well acquainted with him , as wii : Dr. Miller , Matt Patrick , Frank UniMffe , Frank Ilanlon , Low May , now of Fremont. 13. Uoaowntcr. .1.

Mr. Mayof Fremont , then city dork , oft n associated with Stanley and lenrned to nd- mlrohlm. Ilowillcomo in from Fremont today to attend the looturo and on the next day the reception , if it shall bo hold. Mr. .T. O. Corby. of all that are known to liavo chummed with the explorer , lays claim to tlio honor of havini } been n bedfellow of his. Corby was then a man of nbout twenty- four years of age , the same as that of Stan ley. Ho was board Ing at the old Hamilton house on Dougla ? street between Fourteenth and Fifteenth. This housostoodoa the south side of tlio strcrt until four years ago when it was in mrt torn down. Tno cornlco of It may now ho seen upon the brick walls of the McDonald restaurant. Corby had routed n room la the house mid was paying for It and his board 18 per week. Ho had stipulated with Lewis , tlio proprie tor , that "he wiis to liavo the room by him self. " Notwithstanding Corby frequently found himself compelled to pass the night with n fellow who hnd just comn across the plains or who , for other reasons , was not considered a most couuncndablo bedfellow. Ono nluht Corby had returned from n courting hco and the landlord Informed him that ho had given him a now , cle.m bed- follow. Corby know that it wouldn't do to remon strate , BO ho marched up stairs to see whom ho was compelled to domesticate with. The new man was not a urcas'-r or n cowboy cither He did not wtMf his pantaloons In his boots , nor did ho carry a revolver by his side. After looking over his manCorby wnssatisiiedwlth him. They remained in the .samo relation ship about six weeks , during which tlmo Stanley groxv In Corby' ' * estimation. At night ho frequently wrote letters to his pnpu-3 after lm companion hail retired , and devoted considerable tlmo to rending. Ho was quiet and gentlemanly , mid although ha sometimes needed monov , ho never had re course to despised meana to obtain it. Corby hnd some deals with Stanley , and In them the latter was perfectly reliable. The scribe , too , seemed imbued with tbo Idea that ho was destined to make his mark in the world , an ambition which he , In more ways tlinti ono , showed ho hud tousUiitly under consid eration. Finally , Stanley lelt and ho was missed by Mr. Corny who since , however , has followed him through Tun Un : in all his wanderings. Hon. Charles Brown , ho was mayor of Omaha at the time , remembers Mr. Stanley well , nml speaking of him. said ! "His letters were dated from some point on the line , oral a camp of the builders of the Union Pnclllc railroad , and bo was supposed by these unacquainted with his whereabouts , to bo where the letters purported to have boon written. Ills communications were rich and ruoy , filled with Stanley spice , nnd dealt with the construction of the road incidents connected therewith , embel lished stories and facts about lifo on the plains and portraying character of thosi wno , as dventurers , followed the build Ing o tlio road and mudo up the population of these migratory tented towns. The fact is , how ever , Henry M. Stanley did not make many trips over the road nor spend much time on the plains. Most of his letters were writtei : in Omaha from Items ho picked up hero 01 manufactured. Making acquaintances and frlcuds with case ho used to g.itbcr his ma terial for writing from these who cauio in from 'tho end of the road , ' principally from contractors and tbo cnuinccrs , llrcmon and brakomcn of the trains of cars. If ho was not always accurate ho was entertaining. "As newspaper men ho nnd Llttlo Mno readily became acquainted nud as readily became disgusted with each other. Mac , in a general way , several times in the O nub n Herald touched up Stanley ; but -It was an article which uo wrote and had published in a Council Bltifta vapor that provoked the wrath of the now celebrated explorer of African Jungles. "After this publication ono afternoon Stnnloy and several of his friends wore In n saloon on the cast sldo of Thir- tcenth btroet , where John "Wcltzel's is now , enjoying themselves , presumably , when un expectedly Llttlo Macs dropped in on thorn nnd was called tr > an account for what ho had published in the Bluffs paper. Hot , vigorous words ensued. Stanley wont for him. Mac mndo tracks for the door , his speed occelo- rated by the toe of Stanley's brogan. It was not a bloody battle. Mac ran to the Herald ofllco , then on the corner of Douglas nnd Thirteenth streets , and proceeded to got road. It was said ho secured a pistol nnd bis thirst for blood became so intense ho discharged two or three of Its chambers lute the ceiling of the Herald room. Yet discretion assaugod his valor and ho concluded to sail on the calm sea of law rather than tempt the dangers of 'pistols for t\\o. ' "I remember very well his coming over to the mayor's oflico tnon hold in my brother J. J.'s building , on the corner of Fourteenth nnd Douglas streets and stating to mo bis grievances and wanting Stanley arrested. I took his complaint , Issued a warrant for ar rest nnd delivered It to William P. Snowdcn , , then city marshal , for service. Snowdcn at once made tlio arrest uud brought Stanley as a prisoner before mo. As it was then nearly night , ho gnvo ball for his appearance the next clay for trial. "At tlio appointed hour ho and his at torney , the Into General Strickland and Mr. J. W , Ambrose , wore on hand , as wore also Little Mao and his attorney. The defendant de manded a trial by Jury , which without dif ficulty wns obtained. I think there were only six Jurors ; five of whom I now remem ber James Forsyth , John McUroary , Charles Maguho , GoorgoJ. Stephen und Phil Norton , The trial win dragged out to considerable length , although the facts , in condensed form , were about as I hove stated thorn. The defendant's counsoltrlcrtto put in ovi- deuce the Bluffs newspaper article , uhloh I exclude * ! , as no legal justification for the offense charged. But It went to the Jury all the same when Stanley's attorneys made their argument. Strlck was at his best and really made an eloquent plea. Ho praised tno press nnd then sailed in on libellers and these vuo abused its freedom Indofaming persons whom they disliked. I virtually in i- structed the Jury to return a verdict of > guilty. An ofllcor was sworn to take charge of the Jury I presume iho brciul and water clause was put in and to conduct them to n room to consider of their verdict , which In these days meant for the ofllcor and Jury to remain wlicro thev were nud all ethers to re tire. The Jury didn't deliberate any great length of tlmo , but eaino In that is , wo who went out came la und returned their ver dict , not guilty. Thus ended the case , of 'Tho people of the state of Nebraska vs , Henry M. Stanley ; complaint for assault and battery. ' ii Dorothy Stanley. Somowhcroln the east Mrs. Dorothy Stan ley found that n friend possessed a picture of her famous husband as ho nppoarcd In 1807 when n representative of the New York Hor- aid stationed at "Omaha City. " Interested and desirous of obtaining a copy of tbo pho tograph she wrote a characteristic loiter tc Mr. E.

No ooubt this visit of Mrs. Stnnloy t < Omaha will prove as great nu Interest to hoi - as to the cltiteas who recall with p'e.isurt ' these earlv days In the llfo of tno motropoll when Mr. Stanley was a familiar liguro 01 tier streets.

"No I" by Sir John Mlllnls , hnvo nwlo then * * way into hundreds of thousands of homes the world over ; and having gone thus far they have finished their journey by making their way Itrto hundreds of. thousands of hearts. It is n charming nml vivacious face the face of this brilliant Kngllsh woman , who has won thcadonitlon of the most famous of modern explorers. The faea of mi attlst and of ono who sees the poetry and beauty underlying oven , the most common and un romantics surround ings. A fuco that has aln'.ady won In Amer ica the same admiration when the fair , lovable - blo Knglishwonian stood ut the altar la West minster Abbey with the great captain , whoso perilous explorations she had lone watched from afar with such trembling coulldcaeo nnd hopes , and listening to the -words pro nounced by Cannon irVirrnr and Bishop Hlpon , plighted her troth , with nil the great ones of the kingdom as witnesses to the solemn compact It Is a shanio to burst the romantic bubble which has been hungovcr Millar's celebrated picture , but truth should never bo despised even if it docs puncture now and then the fancies which take deep root In the heart. It will' bo remembered when the engagement of Mr. Stanley ilnd Miss Tennant was announced last spring this country was Immediately Hooded with copies of a plcturo called " Yes , " pilntcd by Mlllals. It w.ia sUtod that the bride-elect posed for the original. Some of the dally papers went so far as to wreathe a romuntio tulo around the plcturo which stated that whllo Miss Ten mint was sitting for U she was debating In her mind whether she would accept Jtlr. Stanley or not. But ulas for human ravoctty I MUs Tennnnt was not the original of "Yes , " but did pose for the companion plcturo "No. " Nor could she have been debating In her mind whether she would bei-omo the explorer's wife or not for at the time the plcturo was painted , seine fifteen years ago she did not know Mr. Stanley mid prooablyhad nevorseen him. Mrs. Stanley Is somewhat over thirty years of ago , with n tall , commnnding llgure , fair hair , blue oyps and n lovely complexion , and will undoubtedly create ns charming an Im pression among her own sex in Omaha as she lias done In every city of the country where Air. Stanley has delivered a lecture. She is accompanied on her tourney through the states by her mother , Mrs. Tennant , who occupies n high .social position In Belgrnvia Until she married Mr. Stanley , Dorothj Tonnant's llfo had been very uneventful. A year ago but n vf ry restricted set of Amer icans had moro than hoard ncrnniuo. Ever now there are many who know her only a : the wife of tuo African explorer. They had all seea her lace in MillaU' ' plcturo , but her name was unknown to them. It was In Kng land alone , nnd there only In a select circle that the girl of the plcturo was known to bo Dorothy Tennant. But Miss Tonnaut herself wns not unknown known- ; far from It. , She hnd for years been engaged in work of such original and uulinu sort that her fame wni but a question o time. She had discovered that there was a pic turesqueneas In poverty ; that rags were ro mantle , oven when modern , and she connected noctod her discovery in the form of a plcturo which eventually became the talk of art clr clos In the English capital. Now additional fame has como to her which , thanks to a beautiful llfo , she hears very modestly , looking upon it all "as a grea sweet fairy tale , " she says , "and It scorned , ' speaking of her marriage , "as though up to the last moment it was not to bo ; hut ill as Mr. Stanley -was , ho said i " 'I shall bo there If Idlo.1" The world knows how ho kep his word.
