Stabbed with q elnIst.

A remarkable school.roem tragedy
occurred In Maine last week. the con-
ssqusno-s o. which remain 70 Be- worked
out. Il appears that Miss Lucy Parks,
. young lady perhaps twenty eight years
Of age. and daughter OF Mr.. Rodney
Parks OF veazic. has taught the village
school At that place for several terms.
Ono Of her pupils 10 named Goody
Smith, who IL about twelve years OF aee.
Goody behaved badly In school. and bis
teacher called him before her. when The
following conversation ensued. Misc
Parks at the same time. holding her
hand ON his head: "Goody. will you get
your ie.soni" "No. I won't!" Then
/ must punish you." "If I could get
hold Of slate I'd knock your id head
Off with it," Thsreupon the youth put
his hand In his pocket and pulled out
rusty gimlet. with which he struck his
teacher twice ON the hand. then thrust
the point OF the instrumen. into her
left breast, above the heart. The weap.
on struck u rib. and alancing. entered
between the ribs. Satisfied with his
wicked work the lad dssisted. Miss
Parks then went 10 her home. where
she now lies In q critical condition.
Thursday evening the sufferer Was do
lirious and talked wildly. and during the
long night imagined hsrself pursued by
her assailant's mother. On Saturday
her condition changed little, but not
for the better. Her hysteric laughs are
said by those who heard them to have
been frightiul. II 10 hoped thai shs
may recover. though her family fear
that death will bs the result OF hsr in-
juries. Goody Smith, the lad who COM
initisd the deed. Is half brother OF Jo-
ssph Suith. recently convicted at tho
supreme Court. in Bangor. Of the mur.
der Of Josslyn. and sent TO the State
Prison for life. II 10 understood that
the father OF Miss Parks will proceed
against tho boy.-Bosfoa Pos.

The Post, in a leader, announces
that England has proposed a con-

pendencs of the Ottoman Empire.
The programme will be identical
with Lord Derby's peace proposals.
The powers participating will be

A Vienna correspondent says it
is certain Russia is preparing for
all eventualities. Russian officials,
who have heretofore been ANXIOUS
to deny all military preparations,
now maintain that the whole army
is on war footing. This Sudden
frankness may possibly be by COM
mand.
