attracted much attention, while a party
of young women in red also presented
an excellent appearance. One of the
amusing features OF the evening was q
party of both men and women dressed
as darkies. They promenaded the hall
together, and during the intermiseions
would form circle and dance break
down. There were also several Topsies
present, but the only person who could
impersonate it as itshould be is young
lady of the East Side, and who uniortu-
nately was not in costume last evening.
Another party noticed was composed
OF a number OF employees OF we'll known
store, who were attired in white Noxal
suits. There were, besides. all sorts of
characters galore, and the fun was kept
up until late hour. The dancers un-

Collision i'm a Fog.

LONDON. May lj.-The captain of the
steamship City of Hamburg. which ar
rived at Swansea yesterday from Ham
burg, reports that at o'clock Saturday
afternoon his vessel collided in fog off
Trevose head, coast of Cornwall, with
the ship Countess Evelyn, bound with
passengers and iron ore from Bilbao.
Spain, to Newport, Wales

jumped aboard the City of Hamburg
and Mate Richards crawled to her
through a hole in the Countess Eve
lyn's quarter. Ninety seconds later the
Countess Evelyn went under with her
crew OF sixteen and with nine passen-
gers.
Boats were lowered at once from the
City of Hamburg, but the search in the
fog proved almost useless. Seaman
Jarbin was picked up, but he died a
few minutes after having been brought
aboard the steamship. The dead body
of little girl also was found. Other
wise the attempt at rescue was result
less.
ST. PETERSBURG, May IA small
ferryboat on the river Mesta, near
Boroyitchee, government of Novgorod,
became unmanageable in mid-stream

course by the current. The passengers
who filed her deck were panic-stricken.
The surging of the crowd made the
boat list and several passengers jumped

which was at once overcrowded and
swamped. Dozens of persons are
known to have been drowned and many
more are missing. About a fifth of the
passengers made no effort to leave the
boat and were saved.
