Of the life of "Florence Percy," the re
puted author of "Rock Me to Sleep Moth
er," a correspondent of the Cincinnati
Commercial gives the following outline:
" 'Florence Percy,' or Miss Chase, had a
romantic life, and a checkered one. She
lives with her third husband, an intelli
gent man, at present in Europe, tempo
rarily. Her first husband was Marshall
Taylor, who fell in love with her through
her poems, corresponded, became engag
ed,and came from California to Wash
ington to marry her She never had seen
hira until the day she met him at the
train, when the license was immediately
procured and the ceremony performed at
hur father's house. After a few years
the marriage contract without any pre
vious acquaintance proved unhappy.
They separated, she retaining her little
girl, christened with her mother's non
deplume, Florence Percy. Afterwards,
while traveling abroad, she married an
artist, Paul Acres, to whom she was pas
sionately devoted, and whose death, after
a short period of matrimonial happiness,
was the severest blow of her life, follow
ed as it was by the loss of a baby girl of
his. Then passed years of loneliness,
when a third marriage, of respect on her
part but of love on the part of the hus
band, gave her a pleasant home and kind
attention, and resulted in the birth of a
third daughter, a child now fifteen years
of age, phenomenally beautiful and gift
ed." Mr. Chase, the father of Florence
Percy, lives in Washington, near the Na
vy Yard. He is a robust, fine looking
man, of poetic tastes, but is totally blind.
Here is a case for doctors of physiology
and psychology. Three weeks ago W. S.
Cue, of South Livonia, struck his axe in
to his left foot, cutting a gash several
unches long between the second and third
toes, exposing but not severing the cords
of both toes. His father's brother, L. M.
Coe, dressed the wound and bound up the
foot. The patient was immediately re
lieved from all pain, but the uncle at once
felt a smarting in the same spot on his
own foot, On removing his boot and
fitocking, a ridge was found the exact
length and location of the cut on his
nephew's foot, resembling the welt left
on the flesh after a sharp blow with a
Strange as it may seem, it is
strictly true that he still feels the sensa
tion of a healing wound, and has at times
land to walk with a cane, and the red spot
is yet visible ou his foot, while the man
who was cut has suffered no pain and is
nearly well.
A dispatch from Dakota says Yankton
can furnish shelter for about 1,000, and is
making great efforts to supply clothing,
fuel and provisions from its limited store.
As soon as the gorge breaks, boats can
be sent below for supplies. All the rail
iX)ads Northwest are snowed in. The
damage to steamboat property is SGO,-
000, including two boats sunk. Eight
steamers are laying high upon the ice and
tiar inland. The losses to property in
general are very great. The season of
floods has only begun, as the entire Mis
aouri slope is buried in snow.
A prominent citizen of Denver, just re
turned from the Uncompahge Agency,
tfays that all the indications point to an
outbreak at an early day. The settlers
have their cabins loopholed and sleep on
their arms, anticipating trouble. There
are aeventy families in the Uncompahge
country and only one hundred soldiers at
the cantonment. The Utes can muster
•even hundred warriors. The settlers
have petitioned the Governor for pro
action.
At Brooklyn in the suit of Richard
Huntly against Charles Goddard and

Cornell, the founder of Cornel) Univcrsi
