The Remains of the Dead Millionaire

| Arrive in New \ ork.
New YORK, May S.-The remains of
| William Astor arrived at O. clock this
morning on the steamer Labourgne. The
widow, her daughters, Mrs. Orme Will
son and Mrs. j. Coleman Drayton, and
| her son-lnlaw, Orme Wilson, accom-
panied the remains. Funeral services
will be held at Trinity Chapel Thursday
| afternoon. The burial will be in the
Astor vault in the Trinity vault.
The remains were inclosed in metallic
coffin, set into black cloth, which covered
| the casket, which was covered with a
| white-oak case. The remains were placed
Sl the stateroom on the main deck, for
ward, and the key kept by Captain Le-
| bouef. The upper berth was removed
and the caSlet placed on the lower BERTH
Over it was spread white silk pail, with
large black cross embroidered in the
middle. At the top also was a small
| with white curtains, with black crosses.
| On the flooring was placed two scarlet
! silk cushions. a single electric lamp
| lighted the apartment. The pail was
covered with lockwood and smilax.
| Mrs. Astor had all her meals served by
| a maid in another stateroOm on the hurri-
cane deck. Mrs. Drayton dined with the
|
table.
Mrs. Astor left her room every morn
| ing at 10 o'clock. Mrs. Drayton Joined
| her, both being dressed in the deepest
mourning. and carrying prayer-books.
They went to the improvised mortuary
chapel, and remained in seclusion for
| hours. Applications from the curious to
be allowed to visit the chamber of the
dead was firmly refused by the Captain
Mrs. Drayton's appearance each evening
at dinner caused a slight flutter among
| the American passengers, who knew of
| the recent scandal.
1t transpires that Coleman Drayton was
at the pier to meet the remains, and as
his wife came down the gang plank he
stepped forward and offered his arm.
Mrs. Drayton neither looked at nor SPOKE e
to her husband, but gently laid her hand
| upon his arm. and with him followed her
mother to the carriage. All was very
quickly and quietly done. There were
| few people on deck at the time, and the
meeting between Mr.. and Mrs. Drayton
attracted little attention

THE THEATER FRANCHISE

La Maison de MoHere is the proud and
affectionate title which the comedians
give to the Coincide Francaise, that no.

is enshrined. The House of Moliere is
indeed the house of a grand segneur,
with its staircase adorned with statues.

statuary and paintings, its thousand SOU

the house begins. 1t is rotunda with

SAN FRANCISCO, May S.-The game to-
day was a remarkably close affair, the
San Franciscos and Dukes keeping
abreast OF each other until the sixth inn
ing, when timely hit drove in two San
Jose runners, and put the visitors in the
lead. In the ninth inning punched hit
ting and Everett's error gave the San
f'ranciscos two runs, and the score was
again tied. Dooley won the game for his
team by knocking the ball to the fence
when runner was on a base. The game
was lively one, both teams hitting hard

WASHINGTON, May S.-The House will
| be engaged in the consideration of the
appropriation bills most Of the week, in
all probability:
In the Senate certain matters Of national
interest are to figure, among others the
Choctaw and ChickasaW claim bill. A
vote upon the amendment authorizing
the payment to Indians Of about S., 100000
will be taken up tomorrow. The naval
appropriation bill will be called up for
consideration Tuesday at the earliest op-
portunity.
Frye, by instruction Of the Commerce
Committee, will report the House bill to
encourage American shipbuilding,
which provides for the admission to
Americanregistryo ofInman line steamers.
Efforts will doubtless be made to secure
immediate action on the bill, and will
thereby give rise to probably long and
heated discussion, as it is expected that
the question of free ships and protection
| to American shipbuilders will come up.
The bill providing for the punishment
of a violation of the treaty rights Of
aliens. will be brought up by the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations at the first
opportunity, and will likely give rise to
tiOns of national and State sovereignty.
If the Senate takes up the calendar
during the week the first bill will be that
providing for fortifcations and other sea
| coast defenses, and with it may be con-
sidered the bill making appropriation for
the purchase of sites for fortiications.
Morgan has given notice of his inten-
ton to speak on the Presidents commu-
nication relative to the bi-monetary con-
! ference. which is on the presiding Off
GERS desk, and probably the opportunity
will be utilized by Senators interested in
the silver question to set forth their views
upon this phase OF it.
The sundry civil bill will probably be
taken up in the House tomorrow, and
its consideration will probably occupy
several days.
An effort will be made to secure con-
sideration for the anti-optiOns bill as soon
| as the sundry civil bill is disposed of, but
the anti-options bill will be vigorously
| opposed by many members, who will use
every endeavor to keep it in the back
ground.
| The Notifications and postoffice appro-
priation bills are also on the calendar.
| only three regular annual appropriation
| bills remain to be reported to the House
the legislative, executive and judicial,
agricultural and deficiency bills.

HOW WITCHES WE'RE CONVICTED
The Ideas of Justice Prevailing In the
Good Old Days.

Good Old Days.
Zone of the theories of the age was that
the devil set his mark upon each of his
servants, that witches We're all marked. -
says Winfield 5. Nevins in the NelO E'ud-
LdVd bfGgdztlc. "a jury of the sex of the
accused was appointed to examine the
body for such marks. 1t often happened
that some excresence of flesh common to
old people, or one eXplainable by natural
causes, was found. One such was found
on the body of Goody Nurse, and reported
to the court, all but one of the Jury agree
ing to the report. Rebecca Preston and
Mary Tarbell knew that the mark was
from natural causes. The prisoner stated
to the court that the dissenting woman
of the jury of examination was one of
the most ancient, Skillful and prudent
and further declared, L there rem
dered sufficient known reason of the
moving cause thereof She asked for
the appointment of another Jury to in
quire into the case and examine the
marks found on her person. The Jury
of trials returned a verdict of not guilty.
Thereupon all the accusers in court
cried out with renewed vigor and were
taken in the most violent fits, rolling and
tumbling about, creating a scene OF the
widest confusion. The Judges told the
jurymen that they had not carefully con-
sidered one expression of the prisoner,
namely, that when one Hobbs, a con-
Tossing witch, was brought i'll as evidence
against her, she said: What, do YOU
bring her? She is one of u.s. The iury
retired for further consultation. Even
then they could not agree upon a verdict
OF guilty. They returned to the court
room and desired that the accused ex-
plain the remark. She made no response,
and the jury returned a verdict Of
puilty.D

A Whale I'm tba Ioire

During the late inundation in the valley
Of the Loire, France, the whole low
ground from AZay-le-Bid to Port
Bould, distance of twenty miles, was
one vast lake, When the waters began
to recede numerous flight of ravens was
seen lowering over spot still covered
with water, all the time emitting their
hoarse cries of Here! herew Some of
the inhabitants took boat and, on ap-
preaching the spot indicated by the
ravens, saw a black body lying imbedded
in the water. They did not know what
it was and brought an old fisherman
there, who pronounced it spermaceti
whale, frequently found in tue sea west
OF France. 1t measured about five yards
in length from end of jaw to end of tail.
The unusual depth of the flood of the
large river, no doubt, induced the whale
to swim up the stream, until the water
became too shallow, and the poor swim
mer ran aground. None Of the inhabi-
tants can remember 2. similar occurrence
TO have ever occurred in the Loire. which
would argue that the late food was the
largest that has happened within the
memory of the present generation.

SAN Francisco, May S.-One of the
most horrible cases of suicide ever re-
corded occurred last night on board the
fireboat Governor Irwin, then lying at
Mission-street wharf. Charles Tamlin, a
stevedore, who was rendered insane by
intense suffering, crept into the furnace
of the boat and was burned TO death. His
head and shoulders were fairly roasted,
and the flesh even down upon his back
curled by the ardent heat.
Tamlin was 45 years old and a native of
Finland. He lived at the house of a
fellow-countryman named Olsen, at 10lS
Montgomery street. He had lived with
the Olsens seventeen years, and was
known to them as a quiet, unassuming
and very industrious workingman. He
was unmarried and had no relatives in
this country.
One week ago Tamlin complained of a
severe pain in his stomach and abdomen,
and decided that he would not go to
work. The next day he was unable to
leave his bed, and physician was sum-
mOned, who gave him little relief A
second and a third doctor were called in,
but Tamlin continued to suffer intensely.
\ few days ago he spoke despondently of
his condition and expressed his belief
that he would never recover.
On Thursday morning he told Olsen
that he had a mind to go down to the
bay and drown himself Olsen advised
him not to do so, but to take the advice
of his physicians and hope for the best.
1t appears, however, that the idea of COM
uniting suicide had rooted itself in his
mind and that his suffering had made
him insane.
He left his room yesterday without
speaking OF his intentions to the family
and staggered down to East street, where
he threw himself in front of engine Il.
His body was thrust aside with slight in
jury by the wheels. Then he tried to
throw himself between the wheels, but
the stoker divining his purpose, stopped
the engine and told the would-be suicide
that he would have him arrested.
Tamlin walked slowly down toward the
wharf where the fireboat lay and asked
stokers Patrick O'Connor and Joseph
burlington for permission to go down
into the treroom and warm himself.
Being granted permission Tamlin de-
scended. He had hardly disappeared
when the sound of a falling body was
heard. Thinking that he had fallen from
the ladder that led to the furnace-room,
the stokers FASTENED below. They will
never forget the sight that greeted them
there. Nothing was visible Of fTamlin but
his feet and legs, which were hanging out
of the door of the furnace. His head and
