PLANT OF A SONG BIRD.
another Sensat ional Divorce Case in the
London Courts.


London Courts.
LONDON, Dec. 5.-London is certainly
having surfeit of separation and d.
Vorce cases. The Russell case is no
sooner ended than the scene shifts, re-
veallD0 further marital infelicities This
Time, however, the parties involved do
not belong to the peerage, but are
Well known to the jeu1afSe doree
and the theater-going public of
England and the United States. The
parties to this latest suit are Miss
Florence st. John, the actress, and
Duplany Marius, and the charges made
against the latter are the only ones
upon which an absolute divorce can be
obtained in England, namely cruelty
and intdelity.
Miss st. John charges that since her
marriage to the defendant he has
treated her in most cruel manner,
and that he has also been intimate with
other women. The case came up to-day
before Justice Jeune, in the divorce
division Of Her Majesty's high court of
justice. Sir Charles Russell appeared
Tor the petitioner and G. T. Gill for
the respondent. Mr.. Gill admitted
that the charge of infidelity was true,
but claimed that it had not occurred I'M
IL after Miss st. John had deserted her
husband
Sir Charles Russell stated that Marius
and Miss st. John fell in love with each
other when they were both married
persons. They so far forgot their
duties to their respective partners
that the procuring of divorce by
Mrs. Marius and another by Miss st.
Johns husband was rendered neces-
sary. After these divorces had been
granted Marius married Miss st. John.
The couple did not live happily,
and scenes of violence were fire.
quent between them. Finally, in Sep
TENDER, 1888, Marius knocked his
wife down and so abused her that had
1t not been for the tact that her brother
was in the house there is no saying how
his violence would have ended. After
this trouble they no lived together as
man and wife.
Miss st. John was called to the wit
ness-box to testify as to her charges.
She said she met Marius at the Strand
Theater, in London, in 1879. After he
had been divorced from his wife
md she from her husband,
she married him. This was in
1885. In 1886 child was born
to them. She had much reason to COM
plain of Marius' Incorporate habits in
1888 and 1889. When he was drunk he
was very vicious and insulting. The
witness gave in detail number of acts
of cruelty on the part of the respond
ent.

THREE TRAINS WRECKED.

Peculiar and Disastrous Accident in Mas
sachusetts.
WORCESTER, Mass, Dec. 4.-Dispatches
from Webster say that terrible wreck
occurred on the New York & New En-
gland Railroad at East Thompson at
6 o'clock this morning, caused
by a collision of the Southbridge
freight with an east-bound freight going
over the west-bound track. The Long
Island express was passing on the other
track at the time, and all three trains
are piled up together. Engineer Tabor,
of the Boston train, and his fireman are
reported killed; one passenger on the
Pullmanls reported burned to death, and
many are injured. The cars almost i'm
mediately took fire, and engines and
doctors have been summoned from all
adjacent points. The accident is said to
have been due to an open switch.
Boston, Mass, Dec. 4.-Assistant Gen
eral superintendent Grant, Of the New
York 4 New England Railroad, says
of the accident at East Thompson:
"All we know up to the present is that
the boat train ran into an east-bound
freight, and the Long Island express
into both before they could be tagged.
The only thing / can attribute the
accident to is that an unusu-
ally dense fog must have so obscured
objects ahead that when the engineer Of
the fast train discovered the freight the
distance was too small in which to stop
his train. When the boat train ran into
the freight the latter was also inmotion.
East Thompson is about ffty-five
miles from Boston. All the Boston hos
pitfalls have been notified by the New En-
gland road to hold themselves in readi-
ness to accommodate number of VIC
TINS of the wreck. The road reported
many killed.
The latest reports place the number
IF dead at seven.
TRENTON, n. j., Dec. 4.-Last evening
an express on the Reading road collid-
ed with construction train at Penning-
ton Fred McLaren, of Philadelphia,
Michael Maloney, of Trenton, and
Thomas Fitzpatrick, of Philadelphia,
the crew of the gravel train, were all
killed. Seven persons were injured, in
Guiding Charles Wilson, of Germantown;
Frank Rodriguez, of Philadelphia;
Isaac Marquis, OF Philadelphia; DR.. A..

of Philadelphia; Oscar Tessner of Phil

Rodriguez was engineer of the express
and was probably fatally injured. Tess

QUEEN VICTORIA.

When Queen Victoria is fully rugged
out in her drawing room attire it is no
unusual thing for her to have $4,000
900 worth of jewels spread on her
royal person. This is a good deal of
wealth for one person to display at one
time. We doubt if all this enormous
sum has given one-half the comfort in
all the time that it has been worn, and
some of the jewels have been known
since the Norman Conquest, that

The Jersey City Station of the Pennsyl-

JERSEY CITY, n. j., Dec. Am ex-
plosion of gas caused disastrous fire at
the Jersey City terminus of the Penn
sylvania Railroad this morning. The
company recently completed the mag
niticent rain shed on the grade with
the steel elevated road constructed
from the river to Bergen Hill,
rooms and ferry houses to CORE
spond. The old wooden office

tendent T. w. Jackson occupied in the

ing on Exchange Place. 1t was in this
exit that the explosion occurred. The
tearing down of the structure, and the
Earring caused by ferry boats entering
the slips about 100 feet away are sup
posed to have broken or disconnected
2 gas pipe close TO the main distributing
meter. The explosion took place at
$40 O'Clock, and the surrounding wood
work was instantly ablaze. On the in

flames spread rapidly. The flames
rom the old Office building mounted
Upward until the wooden ceiling and
ides of the unfinished waiting room
were ablaze. The fire was then carried
along huge yellow pine pipe casing to
the new Office structure. This consist
ed of five solidly built struct-
ures of brick, 15Sx4S feet and
five stories high. The second floor of
the easterly building was used as bag
gage room, the others being merely
bare walls. Night Baggagemaster Re-
gan and his assistants succeeded in saw
ing ell the trunks. The four floors
above the baggage-room and the two
buildings on the west were Quilted. From
the office buildings the fire spread to the
train sheds in the rear and attacked the
wooden interior ceiling. About 100 feet
of the ceiling was destroyed. The loss
on the Office building is estimated at
$45, 900, and on the train shed and ferry
house at 5000. This is more than COW
cred by insurance in the Pennsylvania
Company's floating policies.

The Jury in the Celebrated Case Returns
Verdict for the Earl.
LONDON, Dec. 1.-The jury returned a
verdict to-day in the famous Russell di-
vorce case in favor of Earl Russell.
The announcement was greeted with
loud cheers by friends of the Earl.
The developments in the Russell case
yesterday whetted the appetites of the
scandal lovers of London and the YER
batim reports of the proceedings were
read in the newspapers with IN eager
ness that has not been equalled since
Mr.. Stead, in the Pail Mail Gazette, pub"
lished his article "The Modern Baby
Ion" There is no denying the fact that
Countess Russell has the sympathy of
the general public, and the Earl S
admissions on the witness stand yester-
day have not tended to turn the tide of
popular feeling in his direction. On
every day of the trial crowds have
packed the court room and the corri-
doris leading there. Outside the law
courts there has been an equally large
crowd Earl Russell takes particular
pains to avoid this outside crowd. The
proceedings to-day were enlivened by
a tilt between the counsel in regard to
the Roberts incident. During the argu-
ment on this subject the presiding JUS
tice said that he intended to get at the
root of this matter. He declared that it
ought to have been put into definite
shape as criminal Charge or a charge

Campaign Issue Should BE.
CANTON, o., Dec. 4.-The Young
Mems Democratic Club of Canton cele-
brated with banquet last night the
fourth anniversary of the issuance of
Grover Cleveland's tarltf-reform mess
age. Letters of regret were read from
ex-President Cleveland, Cows. Camp
bell, of Ohio Boies, of Iowa, and Rus
sell, of Massachusetts. Mr.. Cleveland,
in his letter, said in part:
/ regret that am unable to attend the
meeting. The value and significance of
this occasion, it seems to me, are found in
the evidence it furnishes OF a determine
ton TO push the issue of tariff reform in
practical and effective manner. 1t is
the duty of the Democratic party to
do this, and expediency as we'll
as duty forbidS any backward step
or faltering. No party can succeed which
deliberately, relinquiShes principle on the
the eve of its vindication, and no party
ought to succeed which, having led men to
an honest examination of q question
vital to their interest and welfare,
abandonS their guidance and leaves
them in doubt and perpleXity.
The confidence born of partial
success and the assertion of the claims of
any individual to party leadership ought
not to divert us from the duty we owe to
the people. Our obligation to them will
not be discharged until in every hamlet
ard neighborhood in the land our cause is
so presented TO our courtrymen that they
can no longer be deceived through blum
ders, nor corrupted through differences.

A New Foot Warmer.

On the Northern railway of France an
important experiment is about to be tried
on a large scale. All carriages. even on
short-distance trains, are to be warmed,
and the warmth is to be PRODUCED by means
of boxes of acetate of soda. The chemical
is put in a solid state into the boxes, and
these are then plunged into hot water OF
about 100 degrees. Tbs effect is that the
soda becomes liquid. On being taken ou
of the water tbs boxes are wiped dry and
are put into the carriages. BY degrees the
soda solidifies, and as long as the operation
lasts-that is, for about five or six hours
it gradually gives off the heat it has alb
sorbed in the melting process.-London
