A CHILD'S TERRIBLE DROP.
Jimmy Martins Thirty-F Foot Fall From
o Bridge.

Three-years-oldJ James Martin Of Philadelphia
yesterday afternoon had a most miraculous
escape from instant death in falling from the
Five Arch" bridge on the North Penn rail-
road. which crosses a small creek between
Allegheny avenue and Clearfield street While
walking on the bridge, which is thirty feet
high, he slipped and fell through the trestle
work, landing upon his head upon the stones
and ground below. That he was,not instantly
killed Is wonderful Several men who hap
pened there at the time and saw the accident
tenderly picked up the unconscious child and
quickly carried him in their arms to the Epis-
copal Hospital At first it was supposed his
careful examin alton, decided that his injuries
were not fatal. He sustained a long. deep cash
OH his forehead and q badly confused wound
upon the back of the head.
The little boy, who is a son of Thomas f.
Martin, q carpenter. is a bright little fellow and
extremely full Of life. When he regained con.
sclousness at the hospital he began to sing and
asked the nurse for his mouth organ. His
mother had great trouble in keeping him in the
house. He would walk up and down the streets
singing, but always walked and played with
himself. never playing with any of the neigh
bors children, which accounted for his walk
ing alone on the bridge. He had several times
walked as far as Franklinville with no one ac-
companylng him. The mother Of the child
keeps a small store at 1850 Orkney street

A ST. LOUIS SENSATION.
Mr.. Frewen Didn't Want the Woman
without the Money.

A St Louis dispatch says: THE announce
ment was made in the papers last Thursday
that Mrs. Grace January of this city, widow Of
the late Jesse January, was to marry the Hon.
Mr.. Frewen Of Englaud, brother of Morton
Frewen, who married Miss Jerome, and mem.
Der OF distinguished English family. The
affair created stir on account Of the rank Of
the contracting parties. That was last Thurs
day. Monday cablegram was received from
Judge Wilbur F. Boyle. trustee of Mrs. jan
uarys property, announcing that the engage
ment was ''off." Judge Boyle had gone to Eng
land as Mrs. January's solicitation to arrange
the marriage settlement. Mr.. Frewen's solic-
itor and Judge Boyle failed to reach an under
standing. and as the prospects of an annie able
adjustment Of the financial features seemed to
be out OF the question the contract of marriage
was at once annulled. Cablegrams from mem
bers OF Mrs. January's family, and even from
Mrs. January herself, confirmed the strange an
nouncement made By Judge Boyle and left no
room to doubt the genuineness of the Informs
ton. As several of Mrs. January's relatives
were preparing to go to England TO attend the
wedding IL WAS necessary to notify them
promptly Of the altered condition of things
The wedding was to have been q very fine af-
fair and preparations had advanced so far that
the bride-elect had, ii is said, nearly completed
u costly trosseau BETTING her own social rank
and that of her intended husband Mrs. jan
uary is at the head of one Of the most aristo-
cratic circles in st. Louis belonging, as she
does to a distinguished French American FAM
lily. The hitch over the marriage settlement
grew out OF a provision in the will of Mrs.
January's first husband providing that in case
Of Mrs. Januarys death the property should
revert to her child or children. II is said that
this was not all satisfactory to Mr.. Frewen, the
upshot of the whole affair being that Mr.. Frewen
withdrew all claims to Mrs. January's hand.
She is reported to be one Of the weaithiest
women Of the city, her fortune being variously
estimated at $4,000. 900 to $4,000, 900"
