PRIEST RUSSIAN SPY.
Prominent Austrian Leader in Christ
ian Socialism Used the Confessional
in Betraying Poles and Russians.

Vienna, March pa great sensation
has been created throughout the en-
pire, and especially in the eastern prov
ince thereof, by the revelations which
have been made during the last fort
night in a lawsuit for libel brought by
Father Stoyalowski against the editor
OF the leading newspaper of Lemberg.
The proceedings in court have gone to
show that the celebrated priest who
has been, jointly with Alloys Leichten-
stein, the ex-Baron Schoenerer and DIR.
Lutger, now mayor of Vienna, the chief
leaders of the so-called Christian So
ciaIistic movement in the dual empire,
has been for years acting as a secret
agent and as paid spy Of Gen. Brock,
who is the chief of the secret police of
Russia. Large numbers of Russians
and Poles are now known to have been
betrayed to the Russian government by
this priest, who is known to have made
use of secrets which he obtained in the
confessional for the purpose of his
treachery.
The Roman Catholic church has lost
no time in issuing a decree depriving
him of all ecclesiastical rights, at the
same time pronouncing a sentence of
communication against him. He has
sought refuge in Russia. 1t is needless
to say that the discovery Of his perfidy
has constituted a terrible blow to the
Christian Socialist party here and to his
intimate friend and patron, Archbishop
StrOssmeyer, who is the leader of the
SlaV movement here and chief advocate
of a close alliance between this country
and Russia

JACK DOYLE FOR CAPTAIN.
he Will Pilot the New York Giants
This Year.

New York, March 21.-It is said on
very good authority that Jack Doyle
will captain the Giants in the pennant
race this season. 1t is believed the first
baseman has been offered the position
and will accept it,
All of the players under contract to
the Brooklyn club have ben notified by
Ned Hanlon to report to him at Wash
ington Park in Brooklyn today. The
players will receive the usual inStruc-
tions from their new manager, after
which they will get their grips packed
ready for their departure to the south,
which will be made Tuesday morning.
Now that Mike Griffin has been sold
to the Cleveland club, the selection Of
Joe Kelley as captain of the Brooklyn
club is certain. Kelley and HanlOn had
talk over the matter in Baltimore last
week, and, as they came to terms in re-
gard to money matters, Kelley told Han
lon that he would sign a contract kn
few days.
HanlOn, who has been trying hard
to get Joe Corbett, the Orioles crack
twirler, to sign a contract for the sea-
son, has come to the conclusion that
Corbett means to quit the game forever
and has given up all hope of getting
him. Anderson, the crack Outfielder,
whom Hanlon has selected as one of the
utility men of the Brooklyn club, has
signed contract with the club for this
season and sent it to President Ebbets.
Anderson will be given a trial at first
base while the team Is down south, and
If he makes a success of the new posi-
ton the prospects are that he will be
played at that bag regularly.

PASSING OF LIBBY PRISON

IFrom the Chicago News.1
The passing of Libby Prison Is at
hand. The grim building which has
been for several years the Mecca Of old
soldiers and sightseers will by the end
of the month be torn down. On its site
is to be reared a monster exposition
building.
There is a bare possibility that the
famous old bricks and beams may be
used in a modified form in the construc-
ton of a new building as a drawing
card for some private enterprise, but as
a place sacred to the memory of the 49,
900 boys in blue who suffered within
it's walls during the war of the rebel
lion it will disappear. The Libby Prison
company, which brought it from Rich
Tnond Va, has gone out of existence
and the structure is now in the hands
of the Coliseum company, which intends
to construct on the grounds big build
ing either for exhibition or business
purposes, and to sell the old structure
to some wrecking concern.
The collection of relics of the late war,
with its added curiosities commemorate
ing the history of the whole country,
which date from Lord CromwelPs chair
to machetes from Santiago, is the prop
ertv of Charles F. Gunther, and will be
kept intact. For time, at least, 1t will
be stored safely in Chicago and several
projects are on hand to place 1t In

ANARCHISTS IN ROME.
Plot to Blow up the Chamber Frustra-
ted Through English Police

London March 21-Most italian news
papers were prompted by the chief of
police to deny the report of a plot dis
covered for blowing up the chamber of
deputies. Nevertheless, the report was
perfectly true, and the people of Rome
have to thank Chief Inspector Melville
for averting the disaster. The conspir-
ators were so proud of their scheme
that they wrote about it in their let
tiers to exiled Italian anarchists in Lon
don, and thence the news promptly
reached Melville.
There appears to be some prospect of
a recrudescence of anarchist ferOcity in
Rome and the king, queen and all min
listers have additional detective guards.
Strangers are unable to obtain admis-
sion to the chamber of deputies, and the
public galleries are daily filed by pub
lie agents.

He loves best to gather them around
him on a rainy day when the sky is dull
and the earth sodden and gust swept,
and tell them stories and draw pictures
for them.
AS he talks about jungle animals, his
favOrite theme, he illustrates the stories
with little pencil sketches in outline.
Three Denver children had the pleas
ure of being his audience for a number
OF rainy days. and of logging his foot
steps on pleasant ones, several years
ago. They are the now grown-up chill
dren of H r. Smith, who are the first
cousins of Mrs. Kfpling.
KIpling and Miss BaIestier were mar
ried in January, 1892, and started for a
trip around the world. They got as far
as Japan where Mrs. Kipling was taken
sick. The bridal trip was abandoned
and they returned to the United States
and decided to spend the summer
among the sugar forests of Vermont, at
Raponda-
During the early part of August a

Is not a home. God and Nature never in

CORONERS DIVIDE CORPSE.
One Takes the Head and the Other the
Body, So as to Hold Two Inquests.

CroOkston, Mimi, March 21.-George
Bates, a resident of Pembina, N. D.,
went across the river which divides
Minnesota and North Dakota. and got
into a fight with John Smith, a saloon
keeper Bates was struck the head
and his skull fractured. He was taken
to his home in Pembina and left upon
the floor, where his dead body was
found next day.
Smith was arrested and the Minnesota
coroner went to the Dakota side to
bring the body across to the scene Of
the crime, but he was stopped in his
attempt by the North Dakota coroner
who claimed the body was under his
control.
After several hours spent arguing the
question as to which officer was entitled
to possession of the body, the matter
was finally compromised by a PROPOSE
ton to divide the body.
The Minnesota coroner accordingly
cut off the mans head and after
wrapping it in newspaper, and grave
ly sealing up the end folds of the paper
with sealing wax, carried it across to
St. Vincent, where a verdict was rem
dered in accordance with the above
facts.
DR.. Lockwood, coroner, saved the
fractured skull to exhibit on the trial Of
Smith.

A DESERTER AT MANILA.
Fate of an American Volunteer Who

San Francisco, March 21-The Ma
Mia American, a daily paper which has
been published at the Philippine capital
since the occupation of that city, says
in its issue of February Z:
Ex-CorpOral John w. Hays of COM
pany D, First California volunteers,
traitor and deserter, has found his just
end. His body now lies in a trench dug
to bury the enemies of his country who
fell in battle, with no slab at his head
his name forever hated by his own reg
iment.
Hays was a member of the Old
Guard, and came with his regiment to
Manila. Last October he married a
Filipino woman, and two days later de-
serted to the insurgent line. This was
the last his regiment heard or cared to
hear about him until yesterday, when,
in burying dead insurgents, they came
across his body, riddled with bullets,
with the clothes of first lieutenant of
insurgents. The sad feature of the story
is that Hays was one of the best men
in his company, and was slated for
promotion. His captain felt his loss
keenly. and could only ascribe it to In
fatuatlon for native woman"

SERVANTS IN GERMANY.
[Frankfort-on Main Cor. Chicago
Record I


If a servant in Germany falls sick her
mistress is not allowed to discharge her,
but must pay two marks (47 cents) a
day for her hospital expenses until she
is perfectly well. Indeed, one is not
allowed in any case to discharge a girl
on the instant. Either party is required
to give two weeks notice, unless a
mistress chooses to pay the girl the two
weeks wages. besides 20 pfennigs GA
cents) a day for her board for the two
weeks. Many prefer this method. In
the coolest weather servants are not
permitted to wear hats or bonnetS, and
even in snowstorms many are sent on
errands without even the protection of
an overcoat. A good girls pay amounts
to from $40 to $7.2O a month, with
board and the mistress must every
month pay for the insurance of the
servants life 20 cents. This is done
by FASTING insurance stamps of five
cents each on a card issued and watched
by the police. When a card is full it is
turned in to the police and a new one
is given, one side of which IS covered
with rules. If the mistress fails to affix
a stamp at the proper date she is liable
to a fine Of $50 marks $3.50. If she de-
faces the card 1000 marks (S240) must
be paid.

SOCIETY BALL GOWNS.
TFrom the Roston Herald.1

u
Miss Marbury's idea of society wo-
men turning over their ball gowns to
actresses who have only $40 $50 a
week salary to live and dress on, will
bear looking at and thinking over, as 1T
is a welI-known fact that rich society
women sell their dresses afte. once or
twice wearing, and the prices paid are
among the ''perquiSiteS" received by the
lady's maid. Not so very long ago a
leading New Yorker whose toilettes are
the most elaborate and expensive ''crea-
TONS" and so original she is seldom
seen twice in the same gown, had the
pleasure of seeing one of her Worth
dresses at the theater, but worn by a
person totally unknown to her. She
could scarcely credit her own eyes, and
on returning home, demanded that this
particular toilette should instantly be
produced for inspection The maid
stammered out that it was madame's
custom to give her the dresses she had
finished wearing. But this one" eX-
claimed the lady, this one I've had on
but oncei" Yes, madame, but it is so
original, madame couldn't be seen again
In it." returned the willy French woman,
and so she had sold it with a dozen
other discarded things to a buyer of
fine raiment, who, in her turn, had prob
ably sold it to the unknown at the the
ateri Now this true story makes Miss
Marbury's proposition practical and
helpful, and it is hoped somebody will
give their ball gowns outright to those
deserving of such aid, rather than sell
them for a mere song to some second
hand dealer.

TWO MILES A MINUTE.
Feats Proposed by the New Electric
Railroad Inventor.

New York, March 21.-When F. B.
Behr's new electric railroad invention
is adopted in this country New Workers,
he says, can go to bed in a train in New
York and the next morning wake up in
st. Louis ready for business.
1t will be feasible to leave New York
ON Saturday night, spend Sunday in
Florida and be back in New York early
Monday morning.
a trip to Philadelphia will take but
three-quarters of an hour, while a jour
ney to Washington will be a pleasant
jaunt of only an hour and a half.
F. B. Behr is an Englishman who has
in successful operation in Tervuerne,
Brussels. Belgium, an electric railroad
miles a minute. The cars are full size
and carry 100 passengers each.
A syndicate has just been organized
to construct line after the new system
from Manchester to Liverpool. The
right of way has been obtained and
work will begin on construction in two
months. 1t will be called the Light
ming Express Railroad" and will make
the distance of thirty miles in twenty
minutes, including stops. Between sta
lions the train will often attain a speed
of two miles a minute. The inventor
says he can increase the speed to three
miles minute.
The trains run on a single rail set
several feet above the ground on tres
tie work. Electricity is the motive
power. The cars are sixty feet long and
in shape resemble somewhat an elon-
gated bun turned upside down, with
wheels set thick along the part that an
swers for the bun crease and hedged
about with guide wheels to prevent it
from jumping the track.
The upper part of the car seats 100
passengers and has compartments for
the conductor and electrician. In the
electricians compartment are two air
brakes one to diminish speed and the
other to stop the train.
A peculiar feature of the Tervuerne
fr1n in ffRv1 f11sl1 Of
crossing country roadways. To prevent
slowing down" automatic draw bridges
are erected as the train approaches, the
two sections of the bridge, which are
parted in the middle, fly up and the
train passes across at full speed.
The cost of construction of the Mono
railroad is estimated by the inventor
at from $4,000 to 100000 mile, but the
operating expenses are, compared
with the steam railroad, night. This viii
result in lower fares for passengers.
