ago, They settled In Honesdalo whero
she, resided until her mnrrlngo with
Bernard Mullady, and for a few years
afterwards. They came to Carbondale

The cause of Mrs. Mullady death
was a deep seated ahdomlnnl trouble
from which she had suffered more
or less for a year. H was, however,
only during .the past week that It wns
considered serious. A consultation of
physicians on Friday decided that the
only chance to have her life was an
operation, This wns performed yester
day by Drs. Burns, Wheeler, Olllls,
and (Harper. The operation showed
that her condition was much worse
than was anticipated. Death would
have resulted under any circumstances
In p. few hours. The efforts of the sur
geons were unavailable, except that
the patient's end wns rendered less
painful.

Enterprising English Correspondent
Who Has Made Himself Famous
In Four Continents Preparod for
the Ministry, but Took Up tho
Pen In Support of His Family.
Something About the Author of
tho Special Articles Published In
the Post.
From tho New York Press.
Henry Norman, tho London Chron
icle's correspondent, believes In two
things, sensation nnd success, nnd In
himself ho combines tho two. Ho Is
not a Trlnltnrlan.
He was a Unitarian once, however,
That was nlmost twenty years ago,
when ho wns studying for the min
istry In tho divinity school at Harvard.
He wns graduated at the head of his
class and read a prize poem and a
prize essay at the exercises. Tho es
say was on German philosophy. Tho
Atlantic Monthly thought well enough
of It to publish It. Folk who rend the
essay, and who hnd followed Norman
through his six years nt Hnrvnrd and
hnd seen him win honors easily and
receive the degrees of bachelor of arts
and bachelor of divinity, predicted a
brilliant future for the young thco
loguc, nnd they wero half right. Ho
hns achieved distinction, but the direc
tion In which his energies turned was
not the expected one.
Mr. Norman wns born In Englnnd
of English parents. They had a hobby
In regard to him of a sort unusual with
English folk. They wished him to
know that other countries had their
good points; that other countries might
In some ways ho as worthy of respect
as England.
HE TOOK TO HERESY.
This was extraordinary heresy, but
tho lad took kindly to It, and hns al
ways had small regard for prejudices,
Insular or otherwise.
After studying In one of tho best
English public schools ho went to
France, and Inter to Germany. In
deed, his vacations had been spent
usually on tho continent, so thnt he
was a cosmopolite by the time he was
ready for college, with a comfortable
reading nnd speaking knowledge of
French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
To follow out his parents' scheme of
educating him broadly, young Norman
was sent over the Atlantic and en
tered In Harvard college for the de
gree of bachelor of arts. He won a
reputation for himself In ancient nnd
modern languages, belles lettres art
and music, but not to nny great ex
tent In science, except as applied to
handling foils and boxing gloves. Ho
made warm friends for himself of
Longfellow, Lowell, Holmes, HIggin
son, Howells, and pretty nearly all
tho members of the wonderful group
thnt gave some justification to Bos
ton's being called tho Hub.
It was at the time of tho famoui
Greek play which attracted so much
attention both nt home nnd abroad.
Henry Norman played the principal
female part In this, the chief male part
being done by Mr Riddle, tho Greek
tutor. After the regular four years'
course and h!:i degree of B. A., Mr. Nor
man went over to that most delightful
of all relics of old Harvard, Divinity
hall, and spent two years under the
most beloved of all professors, whom
even rhllsome Cambridge felt affec
tion for, the venerable Dr. Peabody.
CIRCUMSTANCES MADE CHANGES.
He did not mistrust then that he
would ever follow a calling other than
that of clergyman, although ho expect
ed to write as well as to preach. He
did not voluntarily break away from
the work he had studied earnestly six
years to prepare himself for. Circum
stances managed the matter for lilm,
ano these were not commonplace eith
er. Niagara Falls was one of thesj
circumstances: another wns tho gen
erous patriotism of reveral Boston mil
lionaires; the young graduate's ability
to write was another, and the sudden
death of his futher was a fourth.
Niagara Falls at that time was hedg
ed In 'by a vast number of pens and
devices for taking the tourists' money
and making hideous the grandest nat
utal scenery In America. No one In
New York worried effectively about It.
but Boston, which New York delights
to call a suburb, took the condition of
affairs to heart and protested vigor
ously. Norman was sent to the scene
of disgrace, and spent more than a
month there studying the situation.
Then he wrote, and before long tho
public warmed up n little. Just then
Mr. Norman, sr., died, and Henry had
to hasten home, only to find things
pone pretty much to smash financially,
and the need of getting to work for a
living for the family Instant. He wan
an Englishman In England, but hf was
among strangers. If he could have
had his mother and sister with him In
America he would have done famously,
but Mrs. Norman was not strong
enough to undertake the Journey.

Mrs, William Battln, of Providence,
Is spending a few days with her par
ents on Lincoln street.
What could ho do? Preach? Not at
once, perhap3 not for a year could ho
find support that way. The only other
practical experience he had was writ
ing. So he wrote and earned JC70 the
first year. Three years later he was
making 1,200. Several nrtlcles on
America which Norman "had tome fun
with" brought him Into notice, and
thenceforward his light was never hid
under a bushel. Ho prospered nnd had
forgotten all about Niagara Falls and
Its great disgrace, but ono day he was
ordered over to the states to arrange
for a cable news syndicate. At Albany
he was shown through the capltol and
Invited on to the floor of the assem
bly. "What Is going on Just now?" he
asked.
"Oh, they're Just voting an appro
priation to buy the land along the
American sldo of Niagara Falls to
make a park of It. It's a regular dis
grace the wuy that place why, what
makes vou laugh?"
Mr, Norman went on to the staff of
the Pall Mall Gazette the day Mr.
Stead went to prison for his London
Babylon articles. The circulation of
the paper had fallen off seriously, and
the prisoner did not know thnt there
would be anything left to edit when
he got out. When the editor-in-chief
was liberated, however, it was away
above normal. One of the few things
Mr. Stead did then was to send his
new assistant to Ireland In behalf of
home rule. Ho attended an eviction
and wrote a picturesque account there
of; he also got Into a fight with the
worthy colonel who was doing the
evicting. Norman had promised to keep
out of the way If the colonel' would let
him go Inside while the goods nnd
chattels were removing. He stood on
a table In tho corner of one of tho two
rooms In tho half cottage, half hovel
homo of the delinquents nnd watched
tho men as they threw out the furnish
ings. A BIT OF GALLANTRY.
Ono of tho family was a girl, and a
bit of simple carving over the fireplace
was her chief treasure. A burly fel
low was Just pitching It out on the
sod, whero It might break in its fall,
when tho girl ran toward him with n,
little cry, saying, "Let me tnko It."
Tho man struck her In the breast and
started to throw tho carving through
the doorway, but went through a win
dow Instead, In which, fortunately for
him, there was no glass. The Norman
upper cut and car-warper had both
Btruck home.
When the Pall Mall correspondent
stepped outside with the girl nnd her
household god he hnd another fight on
his hands. Tho colonel wns furious and
demanded satisfaction for the broken
pledge. He was attended to, and later
In tho day the village gave a dance on
tho green In Norman's honor. When
ho wns going awny the poor folk gave
him a small Greek cross of gold, which
he still wears as a watch charm. They
followed him for three miles along the
turnpike, nor would ono of them, even
the driver, accept a farthing.
Norman's book on whnt he saw In
tho Irish hnmlct excited tho Ire of Lord
Salisbury, who said It was all lies.
The young author asked him to repeat
that assertion outside of parliament,
whero "privilege" protected him. The
prime minister declined.
In Egypt, whither Norman went to
wrlto letters to the English public on
how tho campaign under Wolsley
should be conducted, Norman did not
win favor, at least not with the mlll
tary. He went armed with letters from
tho leaders of the party then In power
and felt secure In his position of critic.
INVITED TO DEPART.
The army men wearied of his com
ments, however, nnd one night a lieu
tenant and four men called at his tent
nnd nsked him to go home. Norman,
roused from a sound sleep, murmured
that ho could not think of getting up
then, and, referring to his letters of
grent power, said he thought ho would
stay. The lieutenant said that unless
his letters wore In excess of five man
power he thought he wouldn't. Then
Norman admitted that ho was not
much nt mathematics, and possibly
had miscalculated tho force of his
epistles. So ho packed up nnd went
down to a launch that happened to be
waiting for a passenger, with consid
erable luggage nnd many letters, nnd
steamed down tho Nile for home. The
lieutenant said that, considering the
reputation as a conversationalist which
his dlsttngtushed charge possessed, he
was singularly poor company on tho
way down to the landing.
In 1S87 Mr. Stead sent Norman to
Newfoundland and then on through
tho United States and Canada to San
Francisco, nnd over to Japan and
China, to study tho far East nnd make
a tour of the world. He made things
hum along tho route and kept the wires
warm. In 'Frisco he Jumped off a
yacht to rescue a woman's glove that
had fallen overboard. The Examiner
had a flaming "story" the next day,
In which the woman was not used ov
erwell, and Normnn, armed with a
rawhide, made diligent search for his
"Old Puddln' Chummy." William R.
Hearst, the owner of tho paper. A
half dozen murders at once would not
have excited the town so much as this
episode did. '
PRESENTED TO THE MIKADO.
In Japan Normnn was the first pri
vate citizen ever presented to the Mik
ado. The presentation was before a
body of Imperial troops on the Toynma
Gakko drill ground. Norntnn's pro
Japnnese sentiments, acquired from
Captain Brlnkley, editor and proprie
tor of the Japan Mall, excited the Ire
of the Yokohama merchants, who as
sembled after his departure and threat
ened to kill him. Norman, however,
wns then In Vladivostok, physically
Intact. The merchants had Influence
enough, however, with the Minister
Resident of that frozen port to pre
vent his summoning the czar to meet
Henry on his frozen lawn.
Tiger shooting on the Klns's pre
serves In Koica next occupied the Pall
Mall special commlrsloncr. Then he
went to China, where lucky specula
tions put him on his feet again, and
he proceeded to Slam. The king took
a fancy to Norman's Ingenious political
n citations, and gave him six gold
mines, seven elephants and a company
of troops wherewith to search for tho
mines. They were found in due course,
and a company formed. Normnn sold
out, and, after a nip to Japan, went
homo with a comfortable fortune of
some 00,000.
The merchants of Yokohama went
out .in a special train with tho man of
wealth to Enoshlma nnd picnicked
there gleefully. Among tho party wero
Sir Edwin Arnold and his daughter.
Old scores were forgcttcn.
Norman produced two Instructive
books out of his experiences In Eastern
Asia. One, "Real Japan," Is an author
ity on Japanese government and gei
sha, and "The Far East" Is an excellent
general summary of Far EaBtern polit
ical questions.
On his return to England he went
on the staff of the London Chronicle,
married a celebrated beauty and au
thoress, made his famous Venezuela
"scoop," and Is credited with bringing
on the Greco-Turkish war.
