uEal proclIyties. There was IittIelof the
SS~shsyering and~shaking on the ban ESQ
Condemned of the English wit about
Hast RsyklNgTo Jump in and scramble
through? ag.Well as he could might be
reckoned his rule okgsnduct.
The plan he elSbSEssed within the
next half hour might, hs a legal meas
ure, be open to question, but it possessed
the merit Of tangibility and could be
put into immediate execution. 1t was,
in brief, that John Royal, fat on his
back on that which might we'll be his
dying bed, in Matoacca, should at the
appointed hour on the following day
marry his cousin. on the other side of
the mountains, by proxy.
II don't know how the law stands"
the originator of the scheme admitted,
land there isn't time to look it up. l
never heard of a marriage by proxy out
side of a novel, to be sure; but if a man
can marry by telephone / don't see why
he can't be married by proxy. To me it
looks a. though it wonld give a fighting
chance fOl immediate possession OF the
money. You can have the marriage re-
celebrated if the lady should prefer it.
She will JOIN you at once, of course"
The sick man caught at the plan. His
own knowledge of the laws of the com
monwealth in regard to marriage was
nebulous, but to MIN also the schrne
proposed seemed to offer q fight .ng
chance, and even that appeared of price
less value. His eagerness was pitiful,
his insistence almost aggressive. The
poor fellow, drifting into the shadow of
the inevitable, yet holding back with
terrible earneStneSs, with yearning ten
dernesS, not for his own sake, but for
that of the woman left to his care, the
pathos of it dimmed Royals gray eyes
more than once, and acted as a spur to
his helpful, sympathetic nature.
There was no question in the mind of
either man as TO who should be the repre-
sentative. The bond of the order had
done away with all strangeness or n
of obligation between them, ever before
the recognition of the deeper, human
brotherhood had come. Royal made the
necessary arrangements for the care of
the SICK man during his absence, and
also provided himself with the wedding
ring which he found in his na.nesake's
pocket. The license would be waiting
at the other end of the line, John Royal
said; he had written about it from the
hospital to the gentleman in whose fam
lily his cousin had lived since their aunt's
death.
In the urgent need of haste it occurred
to neither luan that Dr.. Royal, being a
stranger, should have some sort of Gre
dentials, or that it might be necessary
for a proxy to have a written power of
representation. as it We're, from his prin-
ciPal. Nor did the thought that the
similarity Of name might cause a com
plication suggest itself. The sick man
was unaware OF the coincidence, and the
mind of the other was filed with weight
ier matters. There was little time for
detail.

DASHED TO DEATH.

Fearful Wreck of N Runaway Coal Tfaln
Near BeIIwood. Pa.-Three Men Killed
and Others Injured-Twenty-Five Cars
and Locomotive Dashed to Pieces.
ALTOONA, Pa, June 13.-While COM
ing down the mountain from Lloyds-
vile to Bellwood on the Pennsylvania
& Northwestern railroad heavy coal
train got beyond control of the train
men and dashed down the grade at a
fearful rate of speed, and was piled up
and smashed into kindling wood at a
curve on the side of n deep ravine
about three miles north of Bellwood.
The engine and twenty-five cars,
which had been loaded with coal,
lay piled up in a mass of broken
wood and twisted iron at the bottom
of the ravine, and among the debris
were the bodies of the conductor, engf-
neer and one brakeman, with almost
all scmblance to humanity crushed out
of chem. The other train hands
escaped with their lives, but all
were more or less injured. The track
is torn up and blockaded for long
distance, and passengers are being
transferred by way of Altoona and
Cresson. The accident is supposed to
have been caused by wet rails and the
air brakes refusing to work properly.
1t has been impossible to learn the
names of all the killed and injured men.

FOOLISH HIPPoLYrE.

The Arrogance and Insincerity of the
President OF the Black Republic May
Result I'm the Severance of Diplomatic
Relations with Hayti.
NEW YORK. June 13.-A special from
Washington to the Herald says the
government is seriously considering the
question of cutting of all diplomatic
relations with Hayti. The letter writ
ten by Minister Firmin to the special
commissioners of the United States in
reply to their request for a lease of the
Mole st. Nicholas was couched in such
terms that serious offense has been
taken in Washington. During the up-
rising two years ago Hippolyte
sent a commissioner to this coun-
try who virtually pledged to the
United States the lease of a coaling
station and certain commercial
privileges in the event of the United
States lending her moral support to
Hippolyte. This the United States did,
and it proved the turning point in the
uprising in the black republic, for
shortly afterward Legitime was de-
posed. Recently commission was sent
to Port-Au-P Prince to secure a fulfill
ment of the pledges. Instead they re-
"ceived a very irritating reply. in which
Hippolyte absolutely declined to
enter into any negotiations for
the lease of the mole, and objected to
the continued presence in Port-au-
Prince of United States men-of-war.
Hippolyte completely ingnored any OBJ
legation towards the United States.
Minister Douglas will soon be in this
country again on a leave of absence,
and it is probable that before his return
all diplomatic intercourse will have
ceased. 1t will then lie with Hayti to
make such apologies and reparation as

Separate Coaches Required.

NASHVILLE, June 11.-Today the sepa-
rate-coach law, passed by the last legis-
lature, went into effect on all railroads
in the State. The Nashville, Chatta-
nooga & ST. Louis Railway will run a
coach exclusively for colored people at
the front of the train. In it no smoking
will be allowed, and it will be equal to
the other coaches of the train in ap-
pointments and comfort. The law is
construed so that should the remainder
of the train be overcrowded the con-
ductor may put white passengers in this
coach, but not otherwise. The second
coach may be used for Smoking if there
is no objection from the passengers, 9th
erwise no smoking will be allowed ex-
cept in Pullman cars. The Louisville
g. Nashville system will use parti-
toned coaches for white and colored.

A Memphis sensation.

At Memphis, Tenn, Lady P. Nc
Bride. a young and handsome woman
well known in social circles, has fled a
bill in the chancery court asking for a
divorce from James B. Mcbride The
causes for the divorce have given Mem
phis gossips food for thought and con-
versation for several weeks. The Nc
Brides are well known, and the COM
plainant in the case is favorite in so
ciety. She is a sister of Mrs. &C.
Waters, of Little Rock, Ark, wife of
one of the most prominent lawyers and
politicians of that city. Judge Waters
Is an intimate friend of ex-Gov. Powell
Clayton of Arkansas, and has served
several terms as United States attorney
for the eastern district of his state.
Mrs. Mcbride ran away and married
Mcbride in 1879, when she was only IA
years old. Five children have been
born to them. She alleges in her petit
ton for divorce that she is in danger of
being killed by Mcbride, and asks that
he be restrained from interfering with
her. She also asks for an absolute di-
yorce, and for alimony.

DECIDEDLY RAPID.

The Wife of a Berlin Financier a Fugitive
After Having Squandered Her Own
DOwry of 10000 Marks and Forged
Her Husbands Name to the Extent OF
100000 More.
BERLIN, June 1.-TWO years ago
Herr Brauns, the well-known financier
and factory-owner of this city, married
at Pesth the daughter of wealthy
banker of that place noted for her
beauty. The couple set up an establish.
ment in Berlin, where they entertained
in princely fashion, the bride soon being
recognized as one of the leading ladies
of the capital. A month ago she
suddenly vanished from the. mansion
of Herr Brauns in Potsdamer Strasse,
and her whereabouts could not be
learned until day or two ago, when it
was discovered that she was fugitive
from justice, and had taken refuge in
her fathers house at Pesth. She had
confessed to having forged her
husbands name to bills of ex-
change amounting to upward of 1OO,-
900 marks. This money she had lost
in mad speculations on the bourse. But
this was not all of her folly, for she had
gambled away her own dowry of no.
600 marks before entering upon her
career of crime as forger. The bills
had been discounted by friends of her
husband at exorbitant rates, and she
lifted the acceptances when due by other
forgeries. Her concealment became no
longer possible and she fed to her father
and confessed all to him. The banker
offers to make good his son-in-in-law' s
losses, but Herr Brauns is not inclined
to accept this as ending the inci-
dent, and insists upon procuring q
divorce from the woman who has be-
trayed his confidence in such startling

win Be Tried on an old Charge.

Nineteen years ago Mac Holyfield
killed one Williams in jackson county,
Miss. The coroner's jury exonerated
him from blame, but the grand jury
subsequently indicted him. Public
opinion was with him, and he made
good his escape. He moved over into
Alabama and settled in Baldwin coun-
ty. All would have gone well with him
had he not been suspected of train
wrecking. He was brought to trial on
that charge and acquitted. His record
was hunted up, however, and the de-
tective found out the pending charge
of murder. The authorities of jackson
county, Miss, were notified, and the
grand jury brought in another bill, and
Holyfeld viii be tried, he having sur.
rendered voluntarily.
