LIVELY sCRIwMAGE BETWEEN POLICE AND
LOT OF MEDICAL STUDENTS.

/ LIVELY sCEIuMAGE BETWEEN POLICE AND 4
LOT OF MEDICAL STUDENTS.
4 Montreal special says: In relation to
the recent wholesale robbery OF graves
there occurred here Tuesday scene which
would disgrace Dahomey. Complaints that
students have been robbng graves in the
surrounding country have been numerous
of late. and the outrages have become so
impudent and daring that in the country
villages and hamlcts near by people bury
their dead within the shadow OF their own
dwellings until decomposition renders
them useless for surgical purposes Five
bodies had been stolen from Naudyeuil
cemetery and others from villages in this
vicinity, which the police found. and ar
rested one Of the thieves, who was to have
been tried Tuesday afternoon.
Whether mcditating rescue or not does
not appear, but at o'clock over one hum
dred medical students left McGill College
gate. Many Of them were armed with
human arm and thigh-bOncs which had
been stolen. and winch they carried thus
openly. They marched along singing col
lege songs and misbehayng in different
WAYS until they reached the Police Court,
which they entered with rush. In few
moments they commenced series OF IN
Sulting remarks 10 the Court, VINO orueItu
the high constable TO clear the room. He
tried TO do so, but the students turned
upon him. and so bufetted and guyed him
that he drew his revolver. At this mo-
ment a posse Of police, who Lad been sent
for, came TO his rescue, and he poeketed
the weapon.
The medicos eyed them for moment,
and then the actual scl1mmage began,
blows being given and returned. The
police triumphed IN the end, haying used
their batons well. The college-bOys were
compelled to retreat. with the exception OF
few OF the ringl,a aders the police man
AGED to secure. The human relics were
taken from the ehouls, who carried them
as far as it was possible TO do so. The
main effort, however, was directed to
driving the whipped boys back TO the
college.

MARYLAND supersiitfons.

\ writer IN the Louisville COur'cT-JONT-
nal tells the following remarkable story
A most entertaining work with this title
having recently appeared, lis contents
were being discussed at my home by a
uarty of friends one night this week. One
of the marty WAS the wife Of a leading mem
bor OF our southern colony here, daugh-
ter OF AN old Hagcrstown (Md.) family. She
was most spirited in her defence OF The
mcXplainable though eflicacious filh
in many OF these strange superstitions that
have crown into the lives and creeds almost
OF these quiet old places. In support OF
her position she related q singular expert
encc i'm her old family. Miss Ella there"
She said, indicating her beautiful daughter
of nineteen. with a complexion OF that rare
nuritv for which your southern girls are
famous, "was born with n great 'hre-
mark on the right side OF her face.
She was pretty child, and 1t most
broke our hearts. In our country,
about HagerStOwn, il was Mary
l,nd superstition that ii you would rub
sucb a |fire-mark' with the hand OF a dead
person Il would go away altogether.
sAunt Edith an old black woman, died,
and our servants were possessed that we
should take Miss Ella Ia her. L tell you
honestly | half believe in il myself. At
anv rate. we let them have their way; took
Ella down TO the cabin where the dead
old black woman lay, and some OF the
coIored people took her hand and rubbed
tbe .fre-mark repeatedly with it. All the
colorcd col people were much affected by the
circumstances; and all you people up here
in Chicago may laugh at MARYLAND super
stition,' but that 'fire-mark' on that .girPs
face began at once TO fade away, and VI
few months kad entirely disappeared +"

who had been sitting on one ol the celllrai
seats OF the second car, ran toward lis rear

pose the lady jumped oil. The platform OF
the station j. smooth, ana IN getting OF her

stanchions Of the car-platform gate win

as if dazed. Jumping on the station plat
form, Cayanagh seized the woman by the
waist and wrenched her hands from the
stanchion. At that moment her husband
had stumbled on the station platform
from the train and was safe. All three
were within four feet OF the Suard-rall
at the end OF the platform, and in a
fraction more Of time would have been
manned or killed. The lady could not
rise for half minute, and the passen-
GERS on the departing train believed that
She was injured. But she had escaped

Ouite little excitement has been occa-
stoned by the rumor that the Hon. ID. l..
Macpherson, speaker Of the Senate, had
ordered the chair formerly occupied by the
Princess Louise, on the throne in the
Senate Chamber, to be cut down and used
~ the speakers chair. SHch vandalism
and the bare-faced appropriation Of what
may be called Canadian historical sub
iect bv the speaker Of the Senate-who
has the right TO take the chair used
by him as his own personal pro-
perty-has caused no end OF CON-
ment. A reporter visited the Senate cham
ber to-day and found that the story is true ;
tbe only chair on the throne is that Of the
Goyernor-G encral, and the Princess's chair
has been removed from its place. The car
uenters. however, have not yet commenced
their work OF desecration OF the relic, and
II Is to be hoped the Government will in.
terposc, and not allow such vandalism by
an officer Of the Crown. The people OF
Canada prize the chair occupied by the
Princess. and would rather see IL placed
among the other valuables in the historical
museum than appropriated by the Speaker
Of the Senate and placed in his private resi-
dence ms one Of his personal effects.

PEOPLE ANXIOUS TO SELL THEIR PROPERLY
RAGING FIRE UNDERNEATH THE SURFACE.
A Wilkesbarre special Of Thursday says
There is still good deal OF nervousness
manifested by the residents OF the district
which YESTERDAY cayed in. II they only
could be led TO believe that the worst was
over they would be satisfied, but there are
many who refuse TO be consoled, and are
willing TO leave the place entirely il they
can only receive fair price for their pro.
pcrties. But there are no buyers, and
consequently they cannot sell. IL is esti.
mated that real estate in the locality caved
in, and the immediate vicinity, has depre-
ciated In value fully % per cent. II will
require thousands and thousands OF dollars
to repair the damage done. The mine in
spector OF this district, Mr.. Williams,
thinks that the props which supported the
roof of the worked-out mines are being
destroyed by fire, which is said to be raging
underneath the surface.

One result OF the British occupation OF
Cyprus. according to an American observer,
has been to reyoiuiioniZe the status OF Turk
ish women in the island. The emancipated
Turkish woman, he says, is only to be
found in Cyprus, but she has been eman-
cipated so rapidly that, in his opinion,
the harem system will not long survive in
Egypt or any other country where a British
garrison is stationed. In Cyprus, accord
ing to his account, the MoSlem woman - has
openly thrown off the yoke and claimed her
Independence, and with vengeance, too.
Turkish husbands, fathers, brothers, and
friends are frantic with despair At the turn
affairs have taken, and should Turk
come here from any other part OF Islam
he would not believe his own eyes,
