who like to be made to believe What
they know is impossible and to have
their sense OF sight contradict their
common sense, will find an evening
spent under the magic influence of the
conjarer's wand very pleasant one.
1t means more to be successful ma
giclan now than in the days of Blitz and
Anderson. The public knows too much
to be easily puzzled, and Schoolboys do
tricks that were thought wonderful a
decade ago. Hermann keeps ahead

illusions, and his latest mystery, the
Chinese puzzle, called "Yakoyo," in
which Monaghan is transferred from
one hanging cabinet or pagoda to an
other. without the manipulation of a
curtain or the lowering of light, is a
mystery worthy of the name. The pro-
gramme for the coming engagement
will be varied and interesting. Two
parts will be devoted to miscellaneous
magic. Another part is the Chinese
mystery. A half-hour will be set aside
for an expose of spiritualism, and all
the feats which were long unfathomed
will be performed. A beautiful picture
will be the hypnotizing of Nine. Herr

magician will change the pose and cos

At the matinee Wednesday a pro-
gramme of unusual interest to ladies
and children has been prepared.

There was no ground for complaint
last week from the votaries OF the
stage. While the several dramatic
menus were not the very best to be had.
they were far above the average and
gave general satisfaction. The event
was the appearance of the English
actor, E. S. Willard, whose work at the
Metropolitan was the best exhibition of
histrIonic ability seen on the local
boards for many a week. "TuXedo"
furnished amusement during the earlier
part of the week, and very satisfactor-
lily, too. At the Grand "A Railroad
Ticket was the entirely satisfactory
bill. For the current week still better
assortment of plays will be offered.
With jim Corbett at the Grand and
Hermann and "Ta-ra-ra- boom-,1e-ay" at
the Metropolitan, the av erage theater-
goer should have his appetite satisfied.

1t is reported that the ice is going out

Of Fort Hunter, near its mouth, is
partially inundated. There are grave

Fearful Experience OF Four Men
on the Lower St. Lawrence.
MONTREAL, Feb. 11.-During the ter
rible storm of last week in the Lower
st. Lawrence, four whisky smugglers
OF Isle aux Coudres had a thrilling adj
venture which was attended with
fatal result for one Of them. On
Thursday they started from Isle aux
Coudres (the headquarters of the cele-
brated smuggler Bouchard) for the main
land to bring Bouchard off. Bouchard
was not there ard the skiff started back.
They were shortly after caught in
storm and the boat was unable
to make any Roadway against the
floating ice. Darkness came on
and the boat was nearly dashed in pieces
among the floating ice. The men sue
ceeded in drawing the boat on the foe,
on which they drifted about all night.
At dawn they had drifted a few rods
from the shore, but were too weak
to launch the boat. Their cries
brought the inhabitants to their as
sistance, and they were finally
landed in an exhausted condition. One
named Harvey, the youngest of the
party, died after landing. Another, a
brother of Bouchard, had his hands and
feet 50 badly frozen that they will have
to be amputated. The face Of third

ard hundreds of men, women and Chill
dren hurried to the quarry. People
from Rutland and l'ittSlield began to
arrive, and by 5 o'clock the vicinity of
the quarry was crowded. In the crowd
were many relatives of the dead or in
jured men, and they were frantic with
grief.
The quarry was opened in 1865.
Depth and surface considered, it is the
largest quarry in the world. lis per-
ptudicular depth is oXer $50 feet, and

was near the extreme end of
the quarry, far under the hill.
The killed and some Of the injured were
buried under tons Of rock, and the Work
OF rescue was necessarily difficult. The
cause OF the caving in of the quarry is
net positively known. The mass of
stone which covered the men who were
at work close by, was, as near
as can be estimated, sixty feet in
length and twenty feet wide. 1t

OPENED HER LETTERS.
Novel Damage Suit by a Lady
Against Her Son.


Against Her Son.
CINCINNATI, Feb. IA civil action,
the like Of which has probably never
before been Instituted in the courts of
the country, was commenced in the
superior court today by the filing of a
petition by Mrs. Elizabeth Hugo against
her son John, containing allegations
and charges Of most startling character.
The plaintiff is lady eighty eight years
Old and the defendant is her son. The
petition relates that on or about Dee.
%, 1892, John Hugo took from the post
Office a letter addressed to his mother
and containing remittance out of the
proceeds of Hugo's sisters es-
tate i'll Germany, which had
been devised to Mrs. Hugo;
that the plaintiff, hearing of
the arrival of the letter, went
to her sons house. Here she claims
that when she asked him for money
he gave her SIS, and that
when she insisted upon receiving
the full amount, he seized her by the
throat, and, crying out, "Pll kill you,
you old carcass" chOked her almost into
insensibility. She was then carried to
her home on Green street, by some of
the nelghDorS, where she fingered for
several weeks on the verge of death,
But this was not all. A further allega-
ton is made in the petition that on Feb
3, week ago yesterday, she recovered
sufficiently to be about. and, hearing
her son had obtained another letter
Of hers from Germany, contain
ing another remittance, she went
to his house. but at the door was met with
the most vile and abusive language.
Failing to thus drive her away, she
charges that he forcibly led her out and
shut the door in her face. She asks of
the court $1,000 for the first injury and
5000 for the second.
