A TOUR OF THE WORLD
By John l.. Stoddard-Rich Fruit f<
 z-z= Nnp.nTusr v.oefnPna.

By John l.. Stoddard-Rich Fruit for
 Coming Lectures. "
 The long and interesting tour around the world of MT. John L. Stoddard and his managers, has come to an end so far as the latter are concerned, by their safe ar rival in New York with their families. The journey was begun at Boston about September l, when they started for Mon treal. Thence through the Canadian provinces, crossing the Rocky Mountains and the Selkirks they reached Vancouver, B. O., whence they embarked by the Cana dian Pacific steamship, Empress of China, for Japan, reaching Yokohama October ?. There began their labors and adventures in the far east, for which the journey was un- dertaken. While Mr. Stoddard went in and out among the people, visiting the prinei- pal cities and enjoying the inland scenery of Japan, Messrs. Burditt & North busted themselves in securing the needed photo graphs for Illustrations and in other ways ways contributing to the success of the tour. After sufficient sojourn in Japan the party took steamer for China, recording, observing and Illustrating; similarly, after another voyage on the China sea and In- dian ocean, they familiarized themselves with Ceylon, both in it's tropical heats at Colombo and in it's salubrious mountain retreats in the interior. Another steam ship bore them up the Bay of Bengal, land ing them ar Calcutta. Both here and in the other great Indian metropo' lis, Bombay, they spent many days, en- toying the splended pagsants which only the great Indian cities can display. Be. sides this, however, carefully planned trip across the peninsula yielded ,ich fruit among the great historic cities of the mogul empire. With the arrival of the party in Egypt the specific objects of the trip were accomplished, but many weeks were afterwards spent in Cairo and in { much enjoyed trip up the Nile. Thence they reached Europe at Bridinsi and tar ried for several weeks in Naples, Rome Florence, Venice and other cities, crossine at last to England whence they embarked for home. MT. Stoddard, however, re mained behind to complete the writing O. his new lectures at his favorable quarters in Baden Baden, and will not return til mid aummer

PUSHED AWRY.

Accident at the Tomlinson Draw
 bridge-Steamer- Sunshine Contacts
 With the Bridge.
 Late yesterday afternoon many teams were collected at Tomlineon bridge, owing to stoppage of travel caused by an acci- dent, and many of them were turned back to cross the river by the Quinnipise draw bridge. The trouble was that the steamer Sunshine had crashed into the approach to the bridge on the west side and pushed the whole framework of the approach road bed and all askew. The draw itself oper- ated all right but could not close tightly, leaving a wide crack which made 1t dan- gsrous for horses. Some vsnturesome teamsters and carriage occupants drove across the drawbridge taking the risk. Ac- oording to the accounts of bystanders the steamer had not called for the opening of the draw until 1t was too near. Then the drawtender got the bridge open with all speed, but the steamer struck the bridge approach owing to misea1culstion, or else the giving of the wrong signal to the en- oinaer

 What Might Have Proved a Terrible
 Accident-At WestPort Drawbridge
 Yesterday.
 WKsrPoRT, Conn, June 9.-A terrible accident which would have proved the greatest horror Connecticut has known for years was narrowly averted at the draw bridge shortly before o'clock this after noon. The draw over the Saugatuek was opened just before the train was due to allow the passage of the freight, Conductor Deputy, plying between Westport and New York, and was wide open when the New England express, consisting of 8 baggage car, smoker and four passenger coaches, all heavily loaded, appeared running at nearly full speed. Engineer Csrringten saw the signals set against the train and at the same time the river just in front of tho flying train. He quickly put on the air fused to work. Just few rods from the bridge is the safety switch which is placed on every draw on the New York, New Hs- ven and Hartford road, but the train was going at such speed that 1t might not work. The locomotive took the switch with luroh, however, and the train plunged down the spur track and into the sand bank beyond. The looomo- tive, with it's tender and the bag gage car went over the end of the spur and were hurled in the sand bank but a short distance from the river. Engineer Darlington and Fireman Shanley pluckily stuck to their cab and fortunately escaped injury beyond few cuts and bruises. None of the passengers were ss- riously injured, although all vera greatly frightened and several ladies tainted. The train did not block but one track and traf- fo was not impeded, as there being four tracks at the place of the accident, other trains were able to switch off there. The passengers on the train were transferred on the next express to New York and the en- zine and baggage car removed from the bank by 8 wrecker. Much credit is due the engineer and fireman for remaining at their posts in the face of the danger that confronted them.
