New York, Feb. 10.-A general alarm
has been sent out to the police of the
city to look for Mrs. Hattie Carey and
her little 3-year-old son. who disap-
peared last Saturday under very ex-
traordinary circumstances. Mrs. Carey
is the wife of Henry Carey who until
recently, lived In Philadelphia. Mr.
Carey made up his mind about fort
night ago to come to this city and live.
He has an aunt here, and 1t was ar
ranged that Carey and his wife and
child should make their home with her.
Last Saturday Mrs. Carey, with her
little boy, left by the Pennsylvania
railroad and were due to arrive in this
city somewhere about p. m. Carey
remained behind to wind up his affairs.
From the time Mrs. Carey and her
child boarded the Pennsylvania train
up to the present moment all trace of
them has been lost. They apparently
have vanished off the face of the earth,
and now Carey Is here In this city well
nigh distracted with grief and moving
heaven and earth to get some clew to
their whereabouts or their fate.

Paris, Feb. 1O.-The story told by the
Teutonic's captain has given some COM
fort to many persons who are watching
anxiously for news from the La Gas

twenty knots an hour, they say, La

Jones' NOVEL WAGER.
Would Girdlc the Globe and Earn $4,000
All in One Year.

by the United Press.
Chicago, Feb. 10.-There passed
through here, last week, a young man
who is endeavoring to win one of the
queerest bets on record. His name Is
Palel Jones, and he started at a point
in Boston nearly year ago, without
money or clothing, on a wager that he
would go around the world and return
to that city inside of year with $4,000.
He arrived here from st. Paul and
left last night for Rochester, N. Y. He
expects to win the wager.

When Love Weakened.

All this time Howes had been max
ing frantic efforts to reach his bride.
He started out blithely, defiant Of the
snow storm, but was soon brought to a
standstill. over and over again on
horse and on foot he tried to gain the
church. He was finally compelled to
give in. Not even love made desperate
could contend successfully against
snowdrifts sixteen feet deep, which
were the obstacles that stood between
Howes and happiness. The unfortu-
nate parson had been in a desperate
plight, narrowly escaping with his life,
and finally taking refuge in a wayside
cottage.
Happily for the beleagured party in
side the church it included two athletic
brothers of the bride, and these, max
ing a gallant sortie before night fell,
returned with stimulants, food, and
blankets. Next morning the bridegroom
brought his engineering skill to bear
upon the problem, and, having engaged
200 laborers, he managed to cut a mar
row way, first to the curate's house, the
parson being too exhausted and un-
nerved to take further share in Cupid's
game, and thence to the church, where
the marriage ultimately took place OF
Thursday afternoon. 1t will be seer
from this Illustration that England Is
having real old-fashioned winter, sucl
as Christmas story-tellers delight tc
write about and simple folk love tC
read of in snug hooks. But, truth tc
tell, only skatemakers and skaters arr
enjoying it. Everybody else is grum
bling and shivering, while the poor ar,
suffering untold misery.

COLD WEATHER ABROAD.
A London Omnibus Driver Frozen to
Dcath-Pcrils of Trying to Get Married
in u Howling Snow Storm.

From the New York Sun.
London, Feb 10.-The most remarka-
BILE fact about the severe weather the
past week is that an icy band encircles
the whole northern hemisphere. 1t is
not a mere cold wave or series of
waves. 1t exists with the same intens-
ity and during the same time in Eur
ope China, and America. The war dis
patches from the seat of operations of
the japanese forces at Wei-Hai-Wei
say that the temperature is more than
80 degrees below the freezing point.
From Russia come tales of unprece-
dented cold. Western Europe, includ-
ing England. has not known such
weather for twenty years. In fact, the
whole earth north of the thirtieth par
allel is ice-bound, and it is doubtful If
the existing records of meteorology can
produce q similar situation.
The effects Of the terrible visitation
are, of course, most severe where the
condition is most abnormal. When
mention that an omnibus driver was
| frozen to death in his seat, with the
reins frozen to his hands, in London
yesterday, some conception may he
| formed of the sufferingS OF the pool
| in the great metropolis. Snowed-up
trains and frozen rivers and canals
| have been as common in England this
week as in America. The calamitous
weather produced some humorous eff.
| fects.
There is nothing funnier than the
adventures of a wedding party in Cum

pcrjured Testimony Introduced.

Cranston charges that the Hawaiian
government is procuring the conviction
of some of those charged with engag-
ing in the rebellion by means of per-
jured testimony, and that the fact is
notorious in Honolulu.

British subject, said: II was in the
service of the government right up to

Victoria, b. c., Feb. 1O.-The steamer
Warrimo arrived here late last night
from Honolulu, bringing news of hap
penings there up to Feb. 2. On board
are three men who have been eXiled by
the Hawaiian government for partici-
patton in the recent rebellion. They
are: j. Cranston, A. Muller, and j. b.
Johnson. Mr.. Cranston, upon arriving
here, sent for the American consul
He intends placing his case in the hands
of the American authorities and will
seek redress for the expulsion of Null
Ter, Johnston and himself.
Six of the rebels have been sentenced
to death for completely in the recent up
rising. The general belief in Honolulu,
however, was that no capital punish
ment would be meted out to the rebels,
the first hot feeling of resentment
against the disturbers having passed
away and given place to one of mercy
and moderation.
The trial of the eX-queen has proba-
bly, already occurred. The charges and
| specifications We're served upon her on
Jan. 81, and the trial was set for the
| following week. Her own diary, found
at Washington palace, will be put in
as important evidence against her. The
impression is general that she will
plead guilty and will be leniently dealt
with.
| Cranston, one of the men who arrived
here on the Warrimo, claims to be an
| American citizen. He denies absolutely
| that he was in any way connected with
the uprising in Hawaii or even knew
| that such thing was contemplated
until the day the rebellion broke out

RIDING CLASS FORMING.
As the season of Lent approaches and
the numberless social attractions will,
for a time at least, be lessened, the
thoughts OF number of active society
women are turning toward equestrianism.
Captain Falkenberg, who is master of
his art, is about to start a riding school
on Grand avenue, near Tenth street, and
several clubs and classes are forming
among beginners and more proficient
horsemen for the enjoyment of that ex-
hilarating and health-giving exercise.
Besides lessons in the arena, Captain
Falkienberg will take classes in road
riding, and the robability is that by the
last of the month jolly parties of horse
men will be seen cantering and trotting
through Seventh street and Elysian
parks, willing victims OF the riding
habit.
