The Alamo, the Texan fortress in which
David Crockett, Bowie, Travis and other
heroes were murdered by the Mexicans un-
der Gen. Cos, was originally tie mission OF
San Antonio de Valero, and the corner
stone was laid in 1744 and the dedication
made in 1857. A royal dean secularized it
in 1898. and it was used as a fort. The
convent building has been used for business
purposes, but the old chapel, or Alamo
proper, belongs to the State and has
guardian appointed by the Governor. 1t is
yellowish building, 75x60 feet square,
and the stone walls are four feet thick and

Jennie Moore, the Middlebury woman
and eX-member of the Salvation army,
who was arrested at Elizabeth, n. j..
three months ago for bigamv. was tried
last week and acquitted. During the
trial Rev. Isaac McAnn. Methodist
I minister. testified that while located at
st. Adams. in 1879. he married Charles
A. Frye and Jennie Wilson. Frye. now
printer on the Bellows Falls Times,
told the story of the marriage, and said
his wife deserted him in 1888. He heard
that she had begun divorce proceedings
against HIM, but, on employing lawyer,
learned that they had been discontinued.
Rev j. +. Price, a Meth )dist minister at
Elizabeth. testified that he married Jen-
ME Wilson and Henry l.. Moore last May,
and Moore corroborated this. In her
testimony Jennie Wilson Moore told of
her marriage to Charles II. Frye. while a
servant in his fathers house. and of their
life at st. Adams and Montpelier, some
of her narrative beng rather uncompli-
mentary to Frye. A part of the time
she worked for tailor and in a restau-
rant to help pay for their board. She
sued for a divorce on the ground of de-
sertion and was aTterward assured by a
lawyer that it had been granted. She
recounted her trouble with the salvation
army and the cause of her withdrawal
from it, and her formation of an indie
pendent mission and told of her mar
riage to Moore after she had assured him
that she was Il divorced woman. Her
lawyer, in summing up, dealt rather
severely with Frye and Moore. pronoun-

The Failure Of John Roach.

The noted ship-builder. John Roach, of Ches-
ter, Pa, has made an assignment, caused prob
ably by the complications arising out of the
refusal of the Navy Department to accept the
dispatch boat Dolphin. The failure has caused
great deal of excitement, especially among
the workmen, 300 of whom were paid up in
full on Monday and discharged. Those retained
were put to work on an unfinished steamer,
upon the completion of which the yard will
close down. Up to within q year ago Mr..
Roach's weekly payroll was never less than
$4,000, distributed among 1,500 employees,
and during the past year $1,000 week has
been the smallest amount paid out.
During Mr.. Roach's time at the Chester yard,
about IA years, he has built ia ships, the ton
mage of which amounts to 100000 tons. The
workmen are bitter in denouncing the action
of Secretary Whitney, to which they attribute
all their trouble. and several hundred of them
have united in a letter expressing sympathy
with Mr.. Roach.
The shipyard, which is now about to close,
was erected by Mr.. Roach at cost of moro than
a million dollars, and has done more for Amer
lean shipping interests than all the yards in the
United States combined. Mr.. Roach states that
his assets will far more than cover his liabilities

Execution Of an Elephant.

Barnum's large Asiatic elephant Albert,
which killed Keeper James Sweeney at Nashua,
N. H., on Saturday last, was taken to ravine
in the suburbs of Keene on the following Mon
day and killed. Thirty-three members of the
Keene Light Guard, at Is PAGES, sent that num-
Der of bullets into the heart. The huge beast
fell dead without struggle. Albert was 80
years old, and had been used as performing
elephant until the last three months, when he
had shown temper. He was valued at about
$4,000. The remains have been donated to
the Smithsonian Institution at Washington.

The Cleveland Strike.

A collision occurred between the police and
strikes at Cleveland ON the 18th, in which a
number of the latter were severely injured
some, probably, fatally. The strikers were
armed with clubs studded with nails, and the
policemen with long maces. The latter charged
on the rioters and drove them back inch by
inch. Finally the police made desperate
charge. The strikers fell by the score or reeled
away with blood streaming down their faces
They poured a terrific shower of stones, how
ever, into the police, but could not use their
clubs to any advantage, Thirty-fve of the
strikers were lying on the ground when the
skirmish ended but only seven of them were
arrested. The remainder were carried off the
field by their friends. Two of the arrested
men, James Mulkeska and John WieskOiska,
will probably die. The combat lasted only five
minutes

He Died In His Coffin.

Forty years ago Mr.. David Gamble, wealthy
farmer. living near Emmittsburg, Nd, made a
coffin, in which ne slept every night without
failure. His novel bed was chosen, he said, as
a constant reminder that death is always near.
His desire to impress this fact upon himself was
owing to the sudden death of his wife, at the
age of 80 years, by heart disease. Just before
he made the coffin they had been to ball,
and after returning home retired to bed. Fiji
teen minutes later Mr.. Gamble found that his
wife had died in his arms. The shock was be-
lieved by many to have unsettled his reason.
He always kept his coffin thereafter in the
corner of his diniHg-room. He would get into
it every night and pull the lid up until only
his face was exposed to view. One day he had
travelling photographer take view of him
as he lay in the coffin. This picture he had
framed and hung over the dining room mantel-
piece. One night last week he retired to his
coffin at the usual hour but when the servant
called him on the following morning it was
found that he was dead. The body was not
disturbed and was buried as it was found.
