OHOPIN'S DEAD MARCH"
Composed Under circumstances of =
Sensational Nature.


Sensational Nature.
Few people are aware of the extraor-
dinary circumstances under which Chopin
composed his famous Dead March," The
story is told by the Paris correspondent
Of the London Morning Post" 1t seems
that the inspiration came to Chopin in the
studio of M. Ziem in the Rue Lepic, and
was suggested by a story told him by
that artist. M. Zien had been one even
ing to the studio of Prince Edmond de
Polignac with Comte de Ludre and NJ. de
Valdrome.
There was skeleton in the. studio. and
among other Bohemian whimsicalities
Prince Edmond placed the skeleton on a
chair IN front of the piano and guided its
fingers over the keys Some time later
on says NJ Ziem, Chopin came into my
studio just as George Sand depicts him..
the imagination haunted by the legends Of
the land of fogs, besieged by nameless
shapes. After frightful nightmares all
night, in which he had struggled against
spectreS who threatened to carry him off
to hell, he came to rest in nay studio
His nightmares reminded me of the
eyes never left my piano, and he asked,
Have you skeleton% had none; but
/ promised to have one that night and
so invited Polignac to dinner and asked
him to bring his skeleton,
What had previously been mere
ing to Chopin's inspiration, something
grand, terrible and painful Pale, with
staring eyes, and draped in winding
sheet, Chopin held the skeleton close to
him, and suddenly the silence of the
studio was broken by the broad, slow;
was composed there and then from be-
ginning to end.

DIPLOMACY A FAILURE.

[By Cable to The Associated Press.]
CONSTANTINOPLE,J July 19, 97.--The
terms of the Turkish Government as
submitted to the Ambassadors by Tewfk
Pasha on Saturday, not only proposed a
change of frontier, but fixed the amount
Of indemnity at four and one-half million
pounds Turkish and renewed the demand
for abolition Of the capitulations granted
to Greek subjects in the Ottoman Empire.
This is regarded as clear proof that the
Ambassadors of the powers will be unable
to effect anything by mere diplomatic
negotiations.
The Ambassadors have informed the
Porte that they wish written declara-
tion as to the intentions of the Turkish
Government which have hitherto been
communicated orally by Tewfik Pasha
and have stated that if this is not forth
coming they will suspend the negotia-
tions and will refer the whole matter to
their respective Governments with the
view of adopting coercive measures.

PERHAPS IT'S DALY's BOOM.
Sussex County Excited by an Awful
Roaring Noise

A strange and unaccountable sound was
heard in various places in Sussex county
on Tuesday evening which has mystified
the people ever since. says the Newark
Sunday Call" Reports have come from
several points within radius of from five
to seven miles from Newton. At Reuben
Satenstein's Red Gate farm, near Spring
dale, the employees wereso alarmed by
a roaring which seemed to proceed from
the woods in tract known as 1.-The
narrowS" that they armed themselves
with guns and revolvers for defence from
the supposed wild animals. At Augusta
the rural inhabitants were agitated by
the same terrible roaring which seemed
to roll toward them from the southerly
direction.
AT Swartswood Lake the sound was
less profound, and to the natives it ap-
peared that number of wild cats were
holding a convention on the short of the
lake, known as Indian Point Several of
the local hunters, among whom were
Britten Kent, Jonn Southland and
''Dorey' Hull, procured their guns and
started on a hunt. The alleged maraud-
ing animals apparently crossed and es-
capped through the woods owned by Jas.
Emmans. Much mystery surrounded the
various narratives which came to New
ton, but all who heard the awful sounds
testified to their diabolical character.
Up to last night the noise remained a
mystery to the farmers and others who
heard it. The boarders at Dick Smith S
Dove Island, at Swartswood Lake and
the campers at the Coursen cottage at
Greenwood Point describe the sound as
that of some enraged wild animal except
that it seemed confined to no locality, but
to spread over the horizon in all direc-
tions. Mr. Albert Puder, residing four
miles east of Newton, a man of cool and
disturbances us a sort of demoniac howl
apparently proceeding from the woods
west of his house The telegraph operator
at Augusta, northeast of Newton five
miles distant describes the phenomenon
as being like the believing of many
bulls, combined with an unearthly
screeching. The farmers in that vicinity
were greatly affrighted. When the sound
was heard in Newton it seemed impossible
to locate it. The Town Committee
and fire department officials rode in g.
carriage throughout the town and it's
suburbs. but were not able to locate the
trouble. To them it seemed to emanate
from various directions. The sound could
@oest be described as the roar of countless
bulls in distress, combined with a shriu
piercing and unearthly vail Many of
( those who heard 1t were much frightened
and are anxiously waiting and hoping
for a solution of the mystery.

THE PoRTsMoUTH's CRUISE.
Jerseys Naval Reservemen to Sail
Away Nexs SATURDAY.

The members of the Battalion of the
East New Jersey Naval Reserve are
nearly in readiness for their second an
nuai cruise, which is to begin next Sat-
urday and will continue two weeks. The
boys were on the ship all Saturday after
noon, bending sail and making all sorts
of preparations. The National Guards
men. when they go to Sea Girt. have their
canvas spread for them, while the Naval
Reservemen have it all to do for them
selves, and there is vastly more work
in bending the sails of ship than there
is in raising a hundred tents. Nearly
all of the heavy work is done, and the
Reservemen viii not have to report
aboard the Portsmouth again until next
Saturday. The officers of the three divis-
ions were busy last night making out the
station bill, which determines the posi-
tion of every seaman and petty officer for
all the different kinds of work that sailor
men have to do.
Saturday General Orders No. was is
sued. 1t directs that the battalion shall
report on board the ship not later than
II o'clock on Saturday, July a. and that
the ship will leave the wharf at 2:30 P
M. The men are to take with them the
following articles:-Two white working
suits (clean) watch cap, blue cap and white
cover, blue shirt and trousers, sweat
er, black shoes, knife and laniard, neck
erchief. peacoat, leggins, extra UNDER
clothing, toilet articles, towels and soap
Blacking and brushes will be provided
by each division Men TO whom no pea
coats have been served will bring civilian
overcoats.
Mail matter and kilograms may be
sent to the ship at Fishers Island, N.
T., to arrive not later than Thursday,
July 49, Transportation 20 their homes
not able to make the entire cruise.
The ship is already out of the dock, SO
that there will be no possibility of the
cruise being delayed, as it was last year
by the vessel going aground In the dock
at low tide. There will be in the neigh
borhood of M l5o in the battalion when the
greater part will make the entire two
weeks cruise. The ship will be towed
out at once and. make sail for Fishers
Island. There the men will have two
days drill on the United States cruiser

geter With the vet of Rhode @ Island

ware Capes and at that. time all men
who do not intend zen to take fs the
the second week promises ito be more at
tractive than the first few will be anxious
to go ashore. At the Delaware Break
water the Battalion of the West will
come aboard, having steamed to that
point on its gunboat Ajax Captain Ja-
ques will then assume command, as
brigade commander. This. will be. a high
ly interesting event. as.it is believed it
will be unique in Naval Reserve history.
The remainder of the week, previous to
making sail for home, will be spent in
manoeuvres to be directed by Captain
Jaques This will be the first time the
men of the two battalions have ever
worked together and interesting times are

BRUTAL BRITISH IGNORANCE
CurzOR Tells the Commons That the
Seals Are fn No Danger

fBy Cable to The Associated Press.l
LONDON. July 10. 1Ss7.-In the House
of Commons today the Hon. George Cur
zon, Under Secretary for Foreign Affairs.
replying to Mr. Michael Davitt, Anti-Par-
nellite member for South Mayor, said the
Government was convinced that the seals
in Behring Sea were in no imminent
danger at present.
Correspondence which had passed on
the subjetc between the two Governments
would be presented in due time to the
House, but probably not before the close
of the present session.
He said that the expert Investigations
were being continued. Two British gun
boats were employed in those waters in
1895, three were sent in 1896 and two this
year. The Admiralty had been asked
whether a third could be spared for SER
vice there. The United States on the
other hand employed no gunboats, but
sent six revenue cutters in 1885, six in
1886 and five this year

BABY BURNED TO DEATH
Its Father Sleeping Off a
Drunken Stupor in the Same
Bed Narrowly Escapes.

A frightful accident occurred at mid
night on Saturday, or early Sunday morn
ing in the tenement art No. 81 Hicks
street. William Morrison, Jr.. an eighteen
months old baby, was burned to crisp
and the house was set afire, while VIII
liam Morrison, Sr., was in bed in a
drunken slumber and his wife Elizabeth
was visiting neighbors. The neighbors
allege that both the parents of the child
We're drunk Juste how the accident. oc-
CURED is not known and probably never
will be. Mrs Morrison went out some
time during Saturday evening She re-
turned at one O'Clock Sunday morning.
On opening the door of her apartments
she found them filed with smoke. she
ran down stairs and returned with a
lamp she secured from neighbor. On
the door being opened the smoke par
TALLY cleared away. She found the bed
in which her husband was sleeping in
flames. He woke up and seizing the bed
clothing threw it out of the window. 1t
is wonder that he was not burned to
death, as the mattress and bed clothes
where he had lain had large hole burned
in them.
When the burning bedding was disposed
of Mrs Morrison wanted TO know where
her baby was. Her husband said he did
not know. 1t appears that when she left
the house early in the evening she placed
the baby in bed with its father. While
they were arguing about the matter the
mother suddenly uttered a Shrek. There
on the floor beneath the bed lay the poor
infant, its little arms thrown over its
head its knees drawn up to its chin 1t
was roasted almost to a crisp.
The mother seized the shrivelled form
and hugged it to her bosom. Her
screams and the smoke brought a crowd
cf neighbors to the scene. Among them
was Morrisons nephew, who FASTENED
for a doctor. Many of the neighbors de-
clared that the child was still living. Pa
trolman Montrose arrived and pronounce
ed it dead. The ambulance arrived
shortly after and the. surgeon declared
that the child had been dead at least
two hours. In that case the father
must have slept soundly while his child
was burning to death. 1t Is probable
that he would have persisted, too, had
not his wife awakened him just when
she did.
Mrs. Morrison, when interviewed by
Patrolman Montrose and reporter last
night, was in no condition to tell much
about the accident. She called her hus-
band hard names and ne reciprocated
Neither one was quite clear regarding the
cause of the fire and the death of their
child. After much trouble il was learned
that when Mrs. Morrison left the house
she left a candle burning on a chair be-
side, the bed; It is supposed that me
candle setting fire to its clothes and the
bed.
