Where the Remains of the Late
 William Astor Rest
Picturesque Trinity the Cemetery That Contains the vault--Lies Beside the Body of His Daughter John
 Jacob Astor's PecuIIarities.
[copYRInnr. 1sae i

Up in picturesque Trinity cemetery, far from the gaze of the public and overlooking the Hudson river, is the tomb of William Astor. It is strange ly constructed vault that rises from the rolling bit of ground like half-sunken turreted castle, and only the surround ings enlighten one as to it's character.
 In front of it are the heavily barred iron doors which might stand for the port cullis of this ancient bit of architecture. Here the body of the late William Astor

That force was greater than was needed, and we had not as many on hand at this fu- neral It is fact which seems almost beyond belief that an Astor funeral, or in fact the funeral of any rich person, attracts mass of thieves and beggars. That experience is an old one to us, and we know how to guard against it"
 That covers the expense of an Astor funeral, with the exception of the costly gifts and the clergyman. These differ, and only the parties directly concerned know the extent of the family's mu- nificence.
 Ihad occasion on my visit to Trinity cemetery to note the other Astor burial grounds and vaults. The original John

 Among the members of the Astor family who were at the church and at the tomb were Mrs. William Astor, the widow, Mr. and Mrs. E. S. Willing, the father and mother of Mrs. John Jacob Astor; Mir. and Mrs. John Jacob Astor; Mrs. Coleman Drayton, who accom- panied her mother from Paris to this city; Mrs. Orme Wilson, Mrs. James R.

Missing Lawyer Emerson Seen i'm Washing

 PLAINF1ELD, N. J., May 23.-It is now believed that Lawyer Howard Emerson, tho missing executor of Mrs. Thomas Stillmar's estate, is insane. as the re- suit of aD attack of grip, Manager Tom Keller, of the Crescent League Baseball Club, says that he saw Emerson in Washington few days ago. Emerson told Keller that he had been sick, but was going homo. Both went to g shoot ing match in the afternoon, and as Kel- Ter left him he said he was just about to start for Plainfield. Keller says that Emerson acted very strangely and look cd very seedy, which was unusual for him; 10 much so that Keller asked him how he was fixed for money. Emerson, in an off-hand way, said: ''That is all right" and displayed a small amount in small bills.

Escape From Prison.
JACKSON, Mich, Aug. 30.-Edward Huntley,
'twenty-year Detroit burglar; John Davis.
a ''iive-year' burglar from kalamazoo, and
"Lige" Billiard, sent from Detroit for six years
for assault with attempt to kill, tried to escape
this morning from the penitentiary by climb
ing the prison wall. Huntley and Davis were
fatally shot and Billiard was captured
August 16. 1891, both Huntlcy and Davis es-
capped by scaling the walls. Huntley was caught
IN two months and Davis was extradited from
Canada.
Huntey and Billiard worked on the withing-
ton and Cooley contract, but In differ
ent shops. Davis belongs to the marble
cutting contract, long way from
the other two men. The attempt was
to advantage. The convicts secreted ladder
inside the wall. Keeper Case saw Huntley and
Billiard leave the shop. They ran swiftly to
the south corner, where Davis joined them.
The three convicts placed the ladder
against tho wall, Davis running up. He threw
stones at the guard on the wall as he
advanced, and at others who followed inside the
yard. Guard Clark fired three times at the
men, but missed. His gun then failed TO go off,
Inside Guard Prangman attempted to pull the
ladder down, when Huntley rushed at him with
knife. swearing: II will cut your id heart

ran.
The convicts stormed the guard house on the
wall inside Of which Guard Clark wns. They
attempted to batter in the door to kill Clark
and secure the gun. Huntley carried q board
shield four feet long and iron covered, which he
held in front of him to protect him from the
bullets and rocks which were directed toward
him. Seeing all three guards coming Huntley
jumped down outside the wall and started to
run.
BY this time Clark had put new cartridges in
his gun and began firing again. He struck
Huntley twice.
Guard Freeman came up at this juncture and
brought Davis down with ball in the left hip,
which shattered the bone, and he fell from the
wall. Billiard threw up his hands and was hand
cuffed and brought in.
On Huntley was found a knife, ground to o
keen point and as sharp a. a razor. Davis also
had a similar one. Both were taken to the hos
pital and their wounds examined. The doctors
say neither will live.
Huntlev at once wired his sister. Mrs. L. A.
Taft Of Oak Grove to come OH the first train.
Billiard has o ball and chain attached to him.
His parents and brothers reside here.

representations the Canadian government
States to complete their system by
erecting any lights they desired on Canadian
territory. Col. Ludlow thereupon represented
TO US that the United States laws prohibited the
permanent construction Of building

than sites owned by the United States
and consequently he could not take advantage
Of the concessions made, but urged the erection
Of Lights by the Canadian government. There
