Mme. Titicne' Money.
T]ic fortune of the famous singer,
Mme. Titiens, remained in
chancery for years. She died in
1S77 and left all her vast fortune to
a relative named Peter Tietjens. In
1873 Peter Tietjens was living at
Cardiff and about that time announced
his intention of emigrating
to South America. Whether he did
so or not has never been ascertained,
but for three years prior to Mme.
Titiens' death nothing was seen or
heard of him, find for twenty years
after the death other relatives tried
to obtain the estate on the presumption
that Peter was dead and had
left no heirs. The courts, however,
are very slow to act in such cases,
and it was only in 1895 that an order
was granted giving leave to assume
the legatee's death if after
proper advertising neither Peter
v i- .. :
iietjens nor ms neirs put m u eumu.

"One of the curses of modern
business/' remarked the passenger
with the side whiskers, "is the habit
so many people have of buying
goods and then bringing them back
and changing them. It keeps one
clerk busy nearly all the time at
my store making exchanges."
"I never have the slightest trouble
of that kind," said the passenger
with the patch over one eye.
"And 1 have been in business fortythree
years."
