Queen Margaret of Italy.

Queen Margaret of Italy has fashion
of determining to her satisfaction the
workings of the various charitable i'll
situations in which she is interested,
which lady patrons of beneficenceS
might do we'll to consider. Her majesty,
in spite of court ceremOnials and social
functions, finds time to visit these insti-
tutions. especially those devoted to chill
dren, very often, but her visits are al
ways unannounced and made at most
unexpected times, which procedure
keeps the superintendent constantly
on the alert.
Recently ON her return from her even
ing drive the royal carriage drew up be-
fore the entrance of hospital for Grip
pied boys, and learning that the in
mates had been put to bed she went into
the dormitories and examined them all,
praiSing the gentle sisters for the ex-
quisite order and neatness of the wards.
The delight of the children, their
wonder and surprise, was pretty to see
as the beautiful lady in her rich apparel
bent over each cot to smile a benedic-
ton at the little sufferers, like some
angel visitant. to smooth the pillows
with her white, jeweled hands, and to
speak gentle words of comfort in her
soft low voice.
1t is little wonder that the Italians
worship this sovereign lady who rules
over them with such graciousness and
tact and sympathy.

UP TO THE STANDARD.

The Seibert Concert Yesterday a
Complete Success.
The Seibert concert given yesterday
afternoon at the Turner. hall was fully
up to the standard of excellence which
has characterized past entertainments
under the same direction. The Con-
cordia Singing society, under the
direction of Prof. l.. S. Harmsen,
gave several selections, and Herr
Emil Geist, the either soloist. was
also down for selections on his favorite
instrument. The opening number, Sci
bert,S "Albert's March," was loudly APP
plauded, and the fine composition was
given in manner worthy the name of
the talented composer and director. The
overture "Sliffelio," given for the first
time in st. Paul, was also well received,
and the chorus, "Das Eigne Herr" by
the Concordia Singing society, captured
the house. That exquisite fantasia.
visions in. a Dream" (ochubert),
though oft repeated, has lostnone of the
charm it exercises over music lovers the
world over, and Herr Geist's either OBJ

has everbeen. Again in the solo GAL

master of the instrument. and touched
the hearts of hundreds to whom the

is famed, closed one of the best concerts
of the season.

BEHEADED BY A CAR.
Joseph Brecken, a Seven
Year-Old Boy, Meets a
Horrible Death.
The Driver, John Maher, I'm
der Arrest, Though Not
to Blame.
Rev. w. S. Vail Asks and An
SWers the Question What
to Do.
A Local TheoriSt Called Down
by a Local PhiloS-
Opher.

The boys of the city who are in tn e
habit of INDUCING IN the dangerous
practice of stealing rides ON the rear
end of the street cars should take warn
ing from the terrible death which a lad
named Joseph Brecken, aged seven,
met with yesterday evening shortly be-
fore 6. The boy, with a number Of COM
panionS, had been skating during the
afternoon on pond situated on State
street above Concord. The loop line of
horse cars which traverse the hill from
Concord street to Annapolis street
pass the spot where the boys
were at play. A car driven by
Joseph Maher was coming down
town, when one of the boys of the party
shouted out to his companions Lets
have Il ride" The lads ran out from
the sidewalk as the car passed them,
and attempted to jump on the rear plat
form. The lad Brecken in some man
ner missed his footing ana stumbled
forward, his head falling directly in
front of the left rear wheel, which de-
capitated him. death being inStantane-
GUS. The screams of the boys COM
panions notified the driver that an acct
dent had occurred, and he speedily stop
ped his car. Officer Lauderdale, of the
DucaS street police precinct, was soon
on the spot, and at once notified the po-
lice station officials who, dispatched the
patrol wagon 10 the scene. The driver
was placed under arrest, and the
body of the boy was conveyed
to the undertaking establishment
OF Peter Godbout. on South Robert
street, by the instructions of Deputy
Coroner Darling, who had been called
to the scene of the accident. The
opinion expressed by the passengers on
the car was that no blame could posi-
bly, be attached to the driver, and that
the matter was accidental.
The father of the boy is John Brack-
ell, a plasterer residing at 210 South
Ro6ie street.
The driver. Maher. was seen last
EVENING" i'll the Ducas street station by
representative of the GLOBE, and stated
that he had worked for the street car
company for over year. He had been
driving the car in question for the last
five weeks. He expressed great sor-
row at the sad accident, but felt sure
that the inquiry TO be made to-day
would fully exOnerate him. He stated
that he saw the boys on the sidewalk,
but of course could not see them run
after the car. The practice of the boys
stealing rides was mentioned by Maher
as being great annoyance to the driv-
ers Oh that line, and he had frequently
warned the lads of the dangerous Gus
tom. The officers OF the Dueas street
precinct also stated last evening that
the practice of stealing rides on the bob
tail cars was very much in vogue on the
West side, and the boys were constant
ly being warned both by the drivers and
the police officers to desist.
An inquest will be held to-day by DIR.
Darling on the body of the lad. when a
number of the passengers and the boys
companions will be called

TO PLEASE The PUBLIC

Hoyt'S "A Brass Monkey is a very
clever skit, and thoroughly pleased the
packed house at the Grand last evening
Like all of lioyt'S productions, it is
satire, and is directed at SupersttionS.
There is very little i'll the way of plot,
but it abOunds in iaughable situat ions
and is full of good business. Jonah and
Baggage are the strong parts. and the
''razzle dazzle triO' provokes mirth and
applause without stint. ali of the mu-
sic is good, and the entire comedy a
sparkling success. 1t will run all week.

Those who were so fortunate as to
hear Jahu De Witt Miller when he SUD-
piled the pulpit of the Peoples church
during its pastors absence last June
will be much gratitied to hear that he
has been engaged to lecture at that
church Friday evening, Dec. 10. His
subject Will be, The Stranger at Our
Gates" discussion of the great immi-
grafton problem. When the assertion
Is made that Mr. Miller is much greater
as lecturer than as a preacher it will
be generally conceded by those who
have heard him that but little more
could possibly be said i'll the way of
commendatiOn. The management has
adopted very generous policy as to the
piIcc VI llChtiS. NO one SHOulu neglect
this opportunity to hear one of the fore
most speakers of the time.

startIing a stranger.

New York Sun.
Down below Natchez, which the boat
was running in close to the left-hand
bank and had stopped her wheels to
avoid big tree floating in an eddy, we
saw native sitting on st mp fishing
lie sat bent over, hat over his eyes, and
there was scarcely movement to tell
that he was alive. We had a smart
Aleck with us on the promenade deck,
and he had no sooner caught sight OF
the native than he called to one of the
deckhands to toss him up potato. A
peck or more of the tubers were lying
loose near pile of sacks, and one was
quickly tossed up.
Nov see me startle him." SAID Smart
Aleck, and he swung his arm for throw
The distance was only about 100 feet,
and his aim was so true that the potato
landed on the natives head with a dull
thud. His motions were so quick that we
couldn't agree as 10 how he did it, but
IN about three seconds he had dropped
his fish-pole, pulled revolver as long
as his arm and fired at Smart Aleck.
The bullet bored hole in his silk hat
just above his hair, and the young man
sunk down in heap and tainted dead
away. When we restored him to his
senses he carefully felt of the top of his
head, looking back at the fisherman,
and absently asked:
Ibid she explode both boilers or only
One?"
