Crazy on tho Cars.

i fearful commotion eas created
among the INDEPESnksr preSs-gnng this
morning, by the Siskt Of An apparently
frenzied woman jumping from The win
dow Of a car attached 10 the East-bound
emigrant train, just as it passed in from.
Of this Office. The train was stopped as
quickly as possible and the passenger
picked up and put oil bsaDl again The
$sain was then backed down Il the De-
pot Hotel, when, upon the statement Of
the ~concuctor. the romEn MAS Laken in

~fortupnte's name is Collins, aud that she
is from Los Angeles, her ticket securing
passas- to New York. The conductor
further stated that the woman had given
him trouble at Winnemucea. and he was
fcarfsl that in one Of her pSroIisms
she would losc her life by jumping from
the train: the ILLUSION by which she is
lSunied being that che is purSsed by n
deadly enemy, from whose assaults she
makes desperate attempts b. escape.
Although the train had not yet got under
full! Roadway this morning, the leap
from the chr window was q very danger
Gus y but fortunately the crazSsl crea-
ture rereised no aPpareRt injury from it.
She has been under medical tnaatmcnt
during the day, aud is this evening com
parntiycly rational.
Superintendent Coddingtop received a
dispatch from the conductor Of the emf
grppi train stating that he found Mrs.
Collins prrSe in the car son lime after
the train left here; and . dispatch has
been sent from the Railroad Office TO
Los Angeles with a view Of communicat-
ing With relatives or friends Of the de
mcntcd woman.

ONE Of the news of the week, and
whosoever reads the BLADE carefully,

to assist in extending the circulation
of the BLADE, especially among those

A SOCIAL SENSATION.
August Belmont Gives Mrs. AstOr

New York dispatch to the Philadelphia
Press says: "There is Just now much GOODNESS
between two prominent New York families,
growing out OF go innocent cause as tho
christening OF baby. Ton December 81,
1882, Oliver IL. z. Belmont, son OF August
Belmont, was married to Sara Swan Whiting,
daughter OF Mrs. August Whiting, who lives
at swansea beautiful villa on Bellevue
avenue, Newport. There was grand wed.
ding, Perry Belmont being the best man, and
Bishop Clark performing the ceremony. The
presents were valued Mt 100000, August
Belmont giving a largo check, aud both faml-
lies bestowing diamonds aud silver ia abund-
anco. After n bridal trip through Europe 1t
imminent. This was given credenco by
the fact that the bride aud groom
returned by different steamers. 1t
= Is now understood that Mrs. Belmont
and her mother recently sailed again for Eu-
rope, while her husband is said TO be staying
at his fathers city and country houses, al
ternateiv. The families OF the bride and
groom were estranged by quarrel, but some
innocent outsiders got mixed In the unpleas-
antness because Of the recent christening of
young Mrs. Belmont's child. AT the ceremony
Niles Aston, daughter OF william Astor, and
Mrs. Fernando Yznaga, stood rs godmothers.
When the Belmonts heard that 1t angered
them toward the Astore, and II is currently
reported that August Belmont cut Mrs. Aston
dead at dinner, where they happened to meet,
making matters very unpleasant for the hos
tees. Anyway, the families do not speak or
notice each other. sympathy Is generally on
the side OF tho Astors, who are better liked
than tho Belmonts. August Belmont's irasci.
