whose arms must be raised to permit
the passage of vessels. In its crude way
this style of bridge may be considered
the prototype of the bascule bridge,
now considered the superior of the once
popular turn bridge.
When the cherry orchards are in
bloom. Steinkirchen isa favorite resort
for the better classes of Hamburg's
society. It's principal inn, located in
the center of the village, has a more
than local reputation for the excel
lence of its cuisine; and if there is any
class or condition of people competent
to give a reliable judgment about things
to eat it is the well-fed Hamburg mer-
chant, who delights to spend week upon
week in the cozy "gasthof" of the "old
country" metropolis.
There is nothing more enjoyable than
to accompany crowd of visitors across
the dixie to the river Elbe. where they
take the returning steamboat, and
then, in solitary grandeur, take boat
and drift down the river with the fall
ing water. To the right and left nod
trees, loaded down with blossoms, often
to the waters edge, the green shore
peeping out here and there. and from
the miniature kitchens of the smacks
| and yawls tied to the shore arises a
| dainty cloud of smoke, so soft and airy
that even the imagination of q poet
could not picture anything more charm
ing. When the tide comes in. the boat
turns with it and is carried leisurely up
stream. Everything is hushed in 81
lence, save the singing nightingale, and
silently one glides, accompanied by her
song, past fantastic pastures and flow
cry meadows, always in sight of the ele-
vated, tree-covered dixie.
Then the moon rises and pours its
shadowy light over the white tree tops;
distance loses itself in light vapor,
and, seemingly dwellingin an enchanted
valley, one would drain the charms of
the spring night to the very dregs.
Lovers of the pure and idyllic in all
parts of the world are under obliga-
tions to Mr.. Lutteroth, who has called
their attention in this inimitable
way to n spot visit to which would
confer particular benefit on American
travellers, for we may safely conclude
that in this poetic "old country" all
nervous strain must succumb to the
peaceful environment. And more es.
pecially in spring, when the entire re-
gion is sea OF blossoms, when the
bright sunlight falls upon the white
flowers, and gamboling sunbeams chase
! each other across the green lawns; and

trees. large fiocks of sheep with theii
white and black lambs. and noble herds

BRAVE BOYS DEED,
Rescue of Girl Companion From
Position of Peril.

VI feTl.
Cora Lyon, a sirl about fifteen years of
agt, who was member of a party of pleas
ure seekers Decoration day, missed her
footing while attempting to cross the dam
at Pierce's Mill, on Rock creek, and fell
into the pool below the dam, where the
water is probably ten feet deep She was
in immiEent danger of drowning but was
re scued by Joseph Blethen, a classmate
who plunged into the water and brought
her to the edge of the dam, whence she
was lifted by Moffut Bradley and others 20
the top. When first taken from the water
the young girl was unconscious. but she
soon recovered and was conveyed to
neighbor:ng farm house, where she was
placed in bed.
About forty persons most of them school
children, went to spend Decoration day in
the vicinity of the mill About II O'Clock
several boys and girls. Cora among Them
started to cross the dam on some planks
laid end to end on the outer edge Of the
structure. When Cora was half way across
backward into the water. Following Cora
on the plank was young Blethen. He
threw off his cap and dived into the pool
seized the girl as she rose to the surface
and managed to reach the foot of the dam
with Her. Moffut Bradley, who had been
brought to the scene by the screams of the
girls. had reached the spot, and climbing
down to the water by the projecting logs,
he succeeded, with the help of others above,
in assisting Cora and her rescuer to the
top, and was taken by friends to the farm
house. The boys dried their clothing in the
sun.
Miss Lyon has since been quite ILL., but
Is recovering. Blethen, though somewhat
unstrung for a few days after the occur
renee, is as well as ever, and quite hero
corded great credit for his presence Of
mind and success in the work of rescuing.

The statement that the girl had been

mystifying. Her brother. it was UNDER

Child's Disappearance.
Annie, as heretofore published disap-
peared Tuesday afternoon after the close
of school at } o'clock. She was a pupil in
the school of Miss Loomis in the Tyler
building, and soon after school closed she
sent word to her teacher that she would
not return. To several of the children shs
said she did not intend to return home
again. for she feared her mother would
whip her for having teased her little sister.
When the little sister complained to her
mother the latter sent her to the school to
tell Annie that she wanted her.
Tnat afternoon Annie was seen walking
south on 11th street near Georgia avenue.
and II was believed she had visited Ana
costa, but about o'clock in the evening
She was seen near 18th street and Pennsyl-
vania Avenue southeast by Mrs Clark. 1t
Is now believed that she left here on the
800 pm train Tuesday, and went as far
as Chicago junction. reaching there We'd
nesday afternoon. Chicago junction Ia
about 2i5 miles east of Chicago, and New
Haven is the first station west OF the Juno
ton, the distance between the places being
less than three miles.
The letter does not say when the girl
was found, or where she remained We'd
nesday night. Her parents are puzzled over
the statement concerning the brother"
in the case, but until the father meets her,
which he may do tomorrow, there will
probably be no explanation received. New
Haven is not telegraph station, and for
this reason no information. In addition to
what the letter contained, can be OBJ

Parents and Teachers Meet.

A meeting of rarents was held at the Will
son School yesterday, and served to attract
the surprisingly large number of eighty.
The object of the meeting was for the con-
sideration of education from the stand
point of trustee. teacher and parent and
to ask a heartier cooperation of parents
and friends.
Trustee Browne referred to the growth
of Wilson School. He spoke of the neces-
sity of parents securing a library of ref
erence books for their children, urged them
to visit the school buil1ing for the purpose
of observing the work done there and to
talk with teachers. He deemed It incum-
bent upon parents to inculcate habits of
home study on the part of their chilAren
to secure that mental breadth and strength
which will enable them to make real pro-
Sress. To his mind, the large number Of
parents present evidenced a very enthusi-
astic interest and cooperation. and bespoke
volumes for the continued progress of the
school.
Principal Cardezo spoke of the present
conditions of the school, and thanked the
parents for the constant evidences of their
interest in Wilson School.
Miss Fisher of the corps of teachers COM
mented on the value of punctuality and
regularity of attendance.
Some of the parents spoke of the conf
dence they felt in the Wilson School and
teachers and of the benefit it was to them
and the community. They had determined
to work more resolutely for the welfare of
the school.

Mr.. and Mrs. John F. Ryan received a let

They had almost given up hope OF finding
the child in the near future, at least. Mr.
Ryan called at police headquarters with the
letter seen after he returned home from
work and exhibited it to Inspector Mat

make some arrangements for returning the
missing one home, as well as making full
investigation of the case. The only thing
they did. howsver. was to advise him that
ne would better go to Ohio and bring the
child home. This he said he would 90. To-
day he went to Baltimore, where he has a

John Lloyd Of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road detective force, and hopes to get the
assistance Of the railroad detectives.
The letter was dated and mailed at New
