Now this good woman attended to tho

was white and destitute of weevils. tho
meat was good, and the dun almost

Then the shippers wife bethought her
of the hens she had brought. to lay eggs

roasted them. and sent them forward
to the forecastle on the cabin china.
"At last" said she In triumph, "the

tendance at the wedding of her sister Eliz-
abeth she met Nicholas, then the duke,
who was in his sixteenth year. The chill
dren became attached TO each other, but
the CZarowitZ's affection for the Princess
was diverted for some time. Six years
later her father made visit to the Rus
sian court, accompanied by Princess AliX,
and her presence in the Russian capital
was the means of renewing their liking
for each other. but as the Princess was
then an ardent Lutheran. the question of
having to become q member of the ortho-
dox Greek church had TO be considered.
Owing to the i'll health and subsequent
death of the Car. Alexander Ill, the
marriage of Princess Alix and Nicholas
was hastened. Concessions. such as
never before secured in embracing the
orthodox faith. were obtained from the
holy synod. The Princess was not re-
quired to declare her former religion to
be accursed. nor that her conversion was
due TO the conviction that the truth lies
not with her own. but with the Russian
church. The holy synod was satisfied
with the simple declaration that the
Princess joined the Greek church in order

ASOuhCo NCSONCTCos
In Cleveland, Ohio, n south bound Jen-
nings avenue trolley car, packed with
men, women and children, plunged
through the open draw of the Central via
duct at o'clock the other night. 1t shot
into space with the rapidity of bullet
from gun. For one brief moment il re-
mained poised in the air. Then il turned
over on its forward end and plunged
headlong 100 feet down into the dark
waters of the Cuyahoga River. One wild
shrek came from the interior of the car
which was cut off as the ear struck the
upright piling below. There came a
crash of splintering wood and shivering
glass and then all was still as the shat
tered car, with its load of human freight
disappeared beneath the waters of the
river Fifteen bodies have been recov-
cred and identified.
The motorman. cap" Rogers, and two
passengers, aware of their impending
fate, leaped from the ear just as it reach
ed the abutment. The lest of the pas
sengers and the conductor had no warn
ing until the car launched out into space
and took its awful plunge. With one
exception they were either dashed to death
by contact with the piling or We're
drowned as the car slid off into the water.
The exception was Patrick Looley, who
in some manner uxtricated himself from
the wreck and was picked up by passing
tug. He was in a frightful condition
when rescued. His skull was fractured
and he was injured internally. His aw-
ful experience had rendered him almost
childish and he jabbered like an idiot as
he was conveyed TO the hospital.
Got the Signal to Go Ahead.
Rogers, the motorman of the car, was
arrested at his home, 1897 Cedar avenue
and was held in $1,000 bail to await the
result of the coroners inquest. When
taken into custody he said:
"The conductor went ahead and turned
the switch, giving me the signal to come

the speed until foot passengers on the
bridge shouted warning TO the motor
man. Then he seemed to make some
slight effort to shut off the current, but
there was no diminuition Of speed.

SINGULAR RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
Elevated Train Crashes Through a
Station and Falls to the street.

Elevated Train Crashes Through a
Station and Falls to- the street.
A remarkable accident occurred about
two weeks ago in Paris, by which an en-
gine and tender were precipitated from
an elevated platform at the Montparuasse
station. The train rolled into the train
shed at rate of about thrty-five miles
an hour without being able to arrest it
sci, crashed through the bumpers at the
end of the track, as we'll AZ the front wall
Of the station, and after travelling about
forty-fve feet tumbled into the street be-
low. the engine fairly on its nose. For
tunatcly at this moment the air brake was
put on and the rest of the train was pre-
vented from going over. IL was TO this
circumstance that the 123 passengers in
the coaches owe their lives. As to the
engineer and fireman they were saved
by being thrown from the engine at the
first shock and the only fatality. strange
to say. that resulted from the whole
ahoir. was the killing Of merchant in
the street below by the fall of block Of
stone detached from the wall by the
shock. The cause Of the accident--quitc
the most singular in French railway an
nals-is attributed to defect in the hand
brakes, which. strange to say, are always
used on French trains. save i'm cases of
emergency, when the air brakes are called
into play, and in this case the air force
could not be applied quickly or effectually
enough.

Mussulmans at karpoot.
About 800 persons were massacred by
the Mussulmans at Karpoot and eight
out Of twelve buildings belonging to the
American missions were sacked and burn
ed. The missionaries, however, escaped.
The news from the different provinces of
Asia Minor continues 10 be grave, con-
frming beyond doubt the impression
which has prevailed for long time past
that the movement has now assumed
proportions which have placed il beyond
the control Of the Turkish authorities.
even IL the latter were really desirous Of
Furnishing the Mussulmans for massacre
ing Armenians. In fact, IL Is considered
very doubtful whether the Turkish troops
would fire on Mussulmans if they should
be ordered TO do so.
II is now shown that there are 500 VIC
Tins of the Karpoot massacre, and that
eight of the twelve buildings belonging
to the American missionaries there were
sacked and burned, in spite of the assur-
ances Of the Porte to the United States
Ambassador, Alexander w. Terrell, that
the lives and property of the Americans
would be protected, and although IL was
announced that Turkish gendarmes had
bssn detailed to guard the mission. The
