Girls and Their Hearts.

Why is it that when girls have an op
portunity to ask for advice, or have
their fortunes told. or anything in that
line. the first thing they do is to ask
something about their hearts or the
hearts of others with relation to theis
own? Don't they ever think Of any

THE GAMBLING SCANDAL
Strangers Eager to Gain Admission te
Parliament

LONDON, June 15-The eagerness dis
played for admission to the house OF com
mons, today, is in marked contrast to the
emptiness of the strangers gallery during
the recent debate on the Irish land bill.
Everybody is looking forward to some in
teresting questions and answers relating
to the Prince of Wales and the Tranby

From the talk this morning II Is believed
a good number of Liberals will go with
their Radical associates In any reasonable
rebuke OF the action OF the prince. IL Is
certain, too, that large portion OF parlia-

that does not go further than q mere ex'
cuse for leniency toward Sir William Cor

BALTIMORE, june 15-The Rev. DR.. E.

formed Presbyterian church, yesterday
preached his farewell sermon, and an
nounced to the congregation that he could
no longer consistently be member OF a
church in this free country, that forbade
its ministers exercising the right OF fran
chise.
DIR. Smith said the church authorities
had not prosecuted him in the least, but
for some time past he had differed with
the radical element of the covenanters
and had hoped that the recent trial at
Pittsburg, OF the young ministers, would
result differently. In eXpelling the young
men, however, for no other reason than
that they had exercised their rights, and
their duties, as American citizens, was
more than he could stand. DR.. Smith

AN APPALLING DISASTER
One Hundred and Twenty Per-
sons Reported to Have
Been Killed
Hcartrending Scenes Wit
messed in the Little
Town of Basle
Many Families Are Wiped
Out of Existence by the
Catastrophe

BERNE, June 15-The total number OF
people who lost their lives yesterday by
the collapse of the railroad bridge on the
Moenchensteln and Basle railroad, is now
placed at 100, with hundreds more or less
injured.
Another account of the disaster says
that 81 bodies are already recovered, and
that 40 persons are severely wounded. 1t
is feared many others are dead whose
bodies have not been found. The victims
are mostly leading citizens of Basle and
vicinity.
HEARTRENDING SCENES AND INCIDENTS
Scenes which were heartrending were
witnessed in Basle today, when the bodies
of large number of the victims were
taken there by sorrowing relatives, for
they represent majority of the best fam
lilies of Basle. Several families are prac-
ticaly wiped entirely out of existence by
the disaster, the full extent of which Is
hot known even at this hour.
Basle is now scene of bitter desolatlOn
and mourning. Nearly every family in
the city may be said to have been touched
| by the calamity, for those families who
|
| bers, number dear friends or acquaint-
ances among the dead, or among those
who are mourning the loss of relatives.
| Those who are wounded include so
many serious injuries that almost each
hour records another death, or another
case in which the physicians give M all
| hopes Of saving the patients life. Every
thing the local and municipal authorities
can do to help the wounded, recover the
dead, or assist those in distress Is being
done. Clergymen, priests and physicians
a large force of troops and tiremen, anc
scores of vehicles to be used as ambu-
lances, have been dispatched to the scene
OF the wreck.
The troops and fremen are busily en-
gagged In removing the wreck and recov'
ering the bodies of the dead and trans
porting the wounded TO their homes or tC
the hospitals. Physicians and ministers
of the gospel are doing noble work In ad
minstering to the wounded ana cOmlOrJ
ing the bereaved.
The neighborhood OF the collapsed
bridge now resembles, in many features
the after episodes of a battle or the clos
ing acts in some war-like struggle. STU
more so was this the case last night, whel
the river banks were Illuminated by larg
fires. Troops aud firemen were worklnl
increasingly, dragging the river for tn
dead, nursing the wounded and keepln
guard around spots where II was no
thought advisable to admit the crowds o
people who had fiocked to the scene fror
every village IN the canton.
The work of the soldiers In dragging tn
river is greatly impeded by the fact tina
the stream is considerably swollen b
melting snow. Thus the waters have car
ried away many bodies and several days
dragging will be required before the sol
diers' work will be completed.
That somebody" is to blame for tn
accident nobody doubts, but people are $
taken up with present duty that the ques
. tion OF blame Is dismissed, for the pres
ent from official consideration.

CANApA'S NEW PREMIER
The Selection of Senator Abbott Con
sidered Wise

sidered Wise
LONDON, June 15-The selection of SEN
ator Abbott as successor to Sir John A.
Macdonald is generally accepted here as
the wsest selection that could have been
made. The strength of British connection
is believed to lie in Ontario, the west, and
the Maritime provinces, in which Abbott
is popular, and it is said by leading Cana
dians residing in London, that the govern
ment acted wisely in preferring the wishes
of the British colonists TO the desires OF
the French habitants.
Since the visit of Premier Mercier to
Paris and his speeches there, averriHg the
undimmed devotion Of new to old France,
the British mind has not been so well sat
isGed Of the attachment of Quebec to the
empire, and there is less disposition than
in former years to see that everything In
Canada was subordinated to the whims OF
the French settlers. 1t is known that
numerous kilograms passed between
Ottawa and London before Abbott was
named, and there is no doubt that he is
| the choice on this side of the Atlantic as
well as on the other The appointment Is
also considered thoroughly safe from q
business point of view, which, In the pres
ent financial condition of the Dominion, Il

AN ERROR OF JUDGMENT
The Prince of Wales Regrets His
Conduct

LONDON, June l5-Lord StanhOpe, sec

ing the baccarat scandal, said that
Sir William Gordon Cumming was
the chief person who had broken faith
because be did not repeat the case 10 his
commanding officer. II the OtIense was
committed by any other person could
only have consisted in advancing him and
pressing him to take different course
than that laid down by the army rcgula-
tOns.
OF the three officers concerned, General
Williams was retired officer Of the army
and was, therefore. not subject TO the
regulations; hut the other two, Field
Marshal the Prince Of Wales, and Lieu
tenant Berekely Levitt. undoubtedly
were. The former, said Lord StanhOpe
as looking back at all the circumstance
OF the case, saw the error he had com
mitted.
Lieutenant Levitt, on the other hand
continued Lord StauhOpe, had written q
! letter to his commanding officer, express

! consequently IL was not proposed TO TAXI

royal gambling and some decent assurance
of good conduct in future.
The statement that Chief Justice Cole
ridge may call Sir William to account, for
accusing him of partiality In his char. e,
has turned society to talking about the
chief Justice, and about the brutal way in
which, some years ago, he endeavored, by
his official influence and power, TO crush a
young man named Adams, whom a daugh-
ter of Coerdge had chosen for her hus
band against her fathers will. Coleridge,
in that case, found that his high station
did not assure the ability to tread on a
poor man, and he was inglorlously defeat
ed, the whole meanness of his course be-
ing exposed in the public press. Since
that time Coleridge has made the best OF
the situation, and not tried to hurt
Adams. Should he interfere with Gordon
Cummings it is believed he would repeat
the Adams experience by exciting sympa
thy for the intended victim.
