Marrow Escape of Addison G. Jones
from Death-Turned Down the Gas

Addison C. Jones, a baggage man at
the Union depot, brother of A. Kelsey
Jones, of the Foot fish market, had
narrow escape from death by asphyxia-
ton at his boarding place, III Lafayette
street, yesterday morning. Mr.. Jones
lives with the family of A. H. Peck,
and when the family arose yesterday
morning the odor of gas filled the house.
On investigation it was found to ema-
nate from the room occupied by Mr..
Jones. The room was entered and a
gas let was found to be three quarters
turned on, and not lit. All the windows
were closed except one which was
slightly lowered at the top. Mr.. Jones
was found in bed unconscious. The
windows We're opened and DR.. Mail
house was summoned. The efforts of
the physician to awaken the uncon-
scious man were unavailing, and he
was removed to the hospital where he
regained consciousness yesterday af-
ternoon It was said there last even
ing that Jones, on retiring turned down
the gas and that when the pressure of
gas was reduced the light went out,
with the result that the room was filled
with gas.

How the German emperor VIII bring
up his only daughter is no subject
of wonderment to the Berliners. They
know that, princess as she is, she Will
be taught TO be a good housewife. to
sew, to cook perhaps, and to order din
ner certainly. For the sovereign's ideal
woman is a strictly domestic person,
as his ideal man is a stout soldier. His
little boys haven't much fun in their
daily lives. Concerning these lives the
Sketch says: In the Spartan upbrinS-
ing of his children the kaiser rivals his
ancestor. Friedrich Wilhelm of Prussia.
According to Klausmann's "Leben in
Deutschen Kaiserhaus," the life of the
royal children of Berlin is not sweet
ened by hours of inactivity. In their
years of infancy the kaiserin ministers
to almost all their wants, spends a
good part of the day with them and
enters into all their amusements, When
the princes arrive at the age of 3 things
are all changed and it is all work.
they are then allowed about an hour
and half out of their waking hours to
themselves; all the rest of their day
is spent in study and physical training.
Even in holiday time their tutors ac-
