The Fra DiavoIo of Paris.

Charles Marchandon, who was executed
lately in Paris, will be remembered as the
Fra Diavolo of Paris. He was only 21 years
of age, remarkably handsome, always fault
lessly attired and of excellent family con-
nections. His numerous robberies were per-
petrated with wonderful adroitnesS under
numerous DISCUSSES, and his leisure was
spent in luxurious retirement in country
house near Compeigne His home was
model of good taste and elegance and his
wife, to whom he was most devoted, beau
tiful, refined woman. In his suburban re-
treat the robber was believed to be an il
legitimate son of Worth, the man-millner.
he was extremely popular with his neigh
bors, courted in society and regarded as
model paymaster by the tradespeople. The
crime for which he suffered the death pen
atty was his first detection. He murdered
rich old lady, who discovered him in the
night stealing her valuables. For while he
remained unsuspected, but the police finally
traced their clue, and at the subsequent trial
all Paris heard with wonderment of the long
array of crimes including murders, of which
the beardless, mild-eyed prisoner was proven
to be guilty.

rhe Vaughan Street school House.

To the Editor Of the Press;
The cellar of this building has never been fin
ished. 1t was dug in muck bed, and part Of the
muck was not taken out, A few inches of gravel
was spread over the muck to make a floor. AS
water runs into the cellar freely the muck and
gravel soon became mud, and in wet weather the
janitor was obliged to use rubber boots to get
around with dry feet. When a furnace was put in
brick and cement cistern was built to keep the
water out of it. Later the janitor spread soma
six inches of coal ashes over the muck and gravel
compound, and this enables him TO get around
comfortably in dry weather. Whenever there is a
heavy rain the water-runs into the cellar and
stands around the sides and sometimes gets into
the furnace cistern. At all times this mass OF
muck, gravel and ashes is sodden with water.
Those versed in sanitary science say that sub
soil water in cellars produces malarial and
zymotic diseases. They also say that a damn
cellar is much more dangerous to health than one
that is Hooded with water. If these statements
are true, there IS certainly very dangerous ex-
poSure of the two hundred children who spend
large part OF their time in that building Ii seems
to me an unwarranted and needless exposure

ticularly to those having charge Of the public

me seem proper. l have no reason TO suppose
that it will be remedied as the winters coaf has

made.
1t would cost presume about $500 to cement

to let il alone and take the risk, or it may be
penny-wisdOm. Some will call it the one, some
the other, and to some the two terms an synony-

THE DOMINION.
A Ship Railroad Project.

ST. JOHN, N. b., Aug. 1S.--A ship railroad
project of great interest is absorbing the at
tention of men away down East. The scheme
is intended to revolutionize the coasting traf-
tc of the maritime provinces and develop
the resources of.of the north shore of New
Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. The
railway is designed to connect Northum
berland basin, at the head of the Bay Of Fun
dy, with the Bay Verte, an arm of North
umberland strait, Gulf of st. Lawrence,
The isthmus which it is to span lies between
Westmoreland county, Nova Scotia, and is
the e., boundary between these two provinces;
The isthmus is only about dozen miles
wide, and if, as is asserted, it is practicable
to transport vessels over it, saving of over
800 miles can be effected in the voyage from
the north shore of Prince Edward Island to
Boston or other United States ports. By the
natural route vessels from the Gulf of st.
Lawrence are obliged to make circuit of
Nova Scotia which is great obstacle, not
only by reason Of the distance, but on ac-
count of the dangers of navigation along its
rocky coast. Work has already been begun
ON the railway.

dence of Noah Lockahill on a farm near here, was
entered by tramps Sunday night. Lockahill was
awakened by noise, sprang from his bed and
closed with one of the trampS in the room. The
burglar was reinforced by two others. Lockahill,
who is a powerful man, flung the captured burglar
against the two others in such manner as to
bring the three to the floor Then he went at them
with a club. His wife brought clothes line, and
together they bound the tramps sat down and
waited for them to recover When the tramps re-

which they preferred, to be taken to CPawfordvlle
and be placed in jail, where they stood chance of
several years in the penitentiary, to be turned
out one at a time and receive such whipping as
he would administer. They chose the latter and

The Missing Aeronaut.

The Canterbury correspondent writes to
the London Times, under date of August
3rd;
Much uneasiness is being caused by the contin.
ued absence of tdings as to Mr.. F. A. Cover, who
lately carried on a series of experiments with
view TO testing the adaptability of balloons to
war purposes Mr.. Cover, who is well known to
the scientific world as joint patentee of the IA
nous Gower-Bell telephone, had made Hythe the
centre of his operations, and thence made sever
al aScentS. n His final undertaking in the country
was successful aerial voyage across the Chan
France, and met with miSadventure while await
ing an opportunity of returning in a balloon to
England. Undeterred by this, he made an ascent
that date nothing definite is known of his wherea-
bouts. A pilot balloon which he had previously
despatched has been found and sent on to Hythe;
some 80 miles off Deppe. Sixteen days having
now elapsed since the ascent and no message hav-
ing been received from Mr. Cover, whose invaria-
BILE practice it was at once to notify by wire his
which places he has left property, the gravest
fears are entertained that he has been drowned.
1t may be mentioned that the experiments being
carried on by Mr.. Cover were, within the cQgni-
Zance of the Government and have so far, it Is
believed, proved of very satisfactory character.
A Pennington despatch states that the
friends and relatives of Frederick Allen
Cover, who reside in Pennington and vi
cinity, place no reliance whatever on the re-
port of his DEATH A cablegram received
from friend of Cover upon the continent
states that there is no truth whatever in the
rumors of his death. Mrs. Amanda Allen
Norton, mother of Mrs. Lillian Norton
Cover, is still in Pennington, visiting her
father Rev. Camp-meeting John Allen.
