Terrible Accident OH Board n New
French Man Ot.war.

BREsT, June 2l.-A terrible accident
occurred yesterday on board the new
French cruiser Dupuy De Lomo. While
the trial of her machinery was III progress
the end of one of the boilers blew out.
The fire room Immediately became filled
with steam and suffocating smoke caused
by the water reaching and cxtinguishing
the fire under the boiler. When the door
of the fire room was broken open the
men were found lying on the deck
delirious from the agony caused by these
terrible injuries, and their blackcned and
distorted faces and fearfully blistcrcd
bodies, presenting a sickenng and heart
rcnding sight. Several had bitten them
selves on their arms and hands and at
tackled their equally unfortunate COM
panions and bitten them.
Efforts were Immediately taken to get
the men out, but they were absolutely
crazy with panic and attacked their
would-be rescuers. When finally dragged
out fifteen were dying and a number OF
others will undoubtedly die in a short
time

The foundation of the building, except
the western wall, is laid with brick i'll
cement, broad and deep, and nothing
short of dynamite in large quantities
could ever move it.
In the center. starting from the deep
basement, is large open space which
will be continued to the top of the build
ing. This will be known as the winter
garden, and from each story will project
balcony looking down upon a bed OF
tropical flowers and fruits.
To the south and slightly to the east
of the winter garden will be the plunge
bath or swimming pool OF ample proper
tions. This will be lined throughout
with marble and white porcelain bricks.
Running in every direction throughout
the basement, are tunnels of all sizes and
shapes, through which pure air will be
introduced into every part of the building.
On the east of the tennis court, and
along the western margin of the garden
have been placed a row of splendid gran

FOR HARMONY.
The Anti snap Convention Dele
egates Made 40 Contest.

CHICAGO, June 21.-The indications
this morning were that the New York
May convention delegation, referring
to letters from prominent democrats in
various states, will decide not to fo.go
anything more than formal notihca-
tion to the committee on contested seats
that they regard themselves as the real
choice of the New York democrats. III
this course is pursued the delegation will
doubtless witness the proceedings from
the wgwam floor. If those who yet
favor Il formal contest should prevail 1t
is likely that brief setting forth of the
situation, as seen by the May conven-
tion folks, will be submitted, and then in
behalf of harmony the matter will rest.
Which course shall prevail was yet in
doubt this morning; but will undoubt-
cdly be decided about . D. III. after the

with the full severity Of yonr rdles-ex-
activ as if he were a monk under dis
cipline .
AS Prince Dolgoronki vas very
powerful man in the state, the
monks did not hesitate to obey
especially as the prince left them
purse of gold, more than sufficient to
pay them for any expense which might
be involved.
When the Young physician awoke
from his stupor he found himself IN
monks cell, and completely clothed in
monks garments He nut his hand TO
his aching head, and almost tainted
when he found that the top of it was
shaver.
Presently he heard the soft sound Of
bare feet approaching in the corridor,
and an old monk brought in "A plate OF
black bread and a cup of water.
Here is food and drink, Friar lvan,
said the old monk, and went away
Friar Ivan! What did it mean?
The young physician tried to believe
that it was dream, but his aching
head. the very palpable walls OF his
cell. the beating of his own heart con
WINGED him that he was indeed awake
But how had he become monk?
II was useless for him to try to UNI
derstand it. When the monk who had
brought him bread and water came
again. he tried to get an explanation
from him; but the monk only said:
Poor Brother Ivan" and went his
way.
The young doctor spent three weeks
in the monastery, doing very severe
penance. He had plenty of time to
mediate on the vice Of intemperance,
both in drink and in speech.
One night, at the end of that time,
masked and draped figure of appalling
appearance presented itself at the door
of 'Friar VANS" cell, and babe him
come out. The masked figure led him
through one dark passage and into an
other. He felt himself suddenly
seized from behind and blind-folded.
Then he was carried long distance,
and was laid down upon something
which seemed to him very soft indeed,
after the hard bench upon which he
had slept in the monastery. Then the
bandage was removed from his eyes
and gazing about, he found himself IN
brilliantly illuminated apartment
II was the same room in which he
hac fallen into drunken slumbei
three weeks before. Grouped about
him were Prince Dolgorouki and the
other friends who had been with hin
on that unlucky occasion.
The young doctor was entirely cured
of his incorporate habits by this Singh
lar experience; and, whatever his opin
ion of monks may have been, he never
again expressed it in public - Youths
