Full particulars are at last at hand
concerning the tragic death OF Oscar
Eliason, the Salt Lake magician, IN
Australia. They show he was accident
ally shot by one Of his companions
while rabbit hunting. The accident oc-
CURED not many miles from Sydney
on November 26, and Eliason lived three
days.
The steamer Aorangi, which arrived
at Victoria from sydney yesterday,
brought the details. Intelligence Of the
sad affair was first received here on
Thanksgiving morning, when Paul
Hammer. brother-!n-law OF the de-
ceased, received cable from Mrs. Ella
son containing only the words oscar
shot dead" Ever since then there has
been much speculation as 10 how the
fatality occurred, the great majority
believing that II was the result OF the
bullet catching feat, while the minority
scoffed at this idea. The minority
proved TO be right.
THE DETAILS.
II appears now that after having en-
joyed a most successful season Oscar
was resting at Sydney before continu-
ing his tour OF the Australian colonies,
and, with party OF friends, went up
TO Dubbo. a small town a few miles
from Sydney on a rabbit hunt, form
Of sport of which the magician was
very fond. After two days excellent
sport, the party was about TO start back
from Dubbo. Two men were loading
the buggy, and Eliason was walking
towards the vehicle, when some one
shouted Look therel Rabbits" where
upon some Of the party turned TO get
shot. Among them was George Jones,
the pianist Of the Dante Company, who
ran forward with his gun across his
arm. Just then the weapon was dis
charged. although no one knows Just
how. The charge struck Eliason in the
groin and he fell to the ground as his
friends rushed to him and at once be-
came partially unconscious, DR.. Tres
slider was one OF the party. and did
what he could TO aid the wounded man,
although he had no instruments. An.

FROM LOG CABIN TO POLICE.

In a Russian palace dwells the Prin-
cess Cantacuzene. How different is the
splendor of her present surroundings
from the modest log cabin which the
Grants once occupied in the days of
their poverty and obscurity near St.
Louis
Since the granddaughter of the
wood-chopper sailed away to reign
queen in the mansion of a. prince, pop
ular interest has turned it's attention
to the spot at Old Orchard, Mo, where
the Grant cabin is treasured as a price
less relic, sacred as the melnentoes of
the saints. 1t is said the princess wants
to buy it.
Tradition has claimed the. cabin as
its own, and many are the wonderful
stories which center about the hut which
once sheltered the great general and
his family.
When the Worlds Fair is held in st.
Louis in 1904 the Grant cabin will be
removed bodily to the grounds, and no
doubt viii prove a great attraction to
No one object in the vicinity of ST.
Louis is of greater historic interest.
The cabin was built mostly by Grants
own hands, by Farmer Grant in 1854
and called by him "Hardscrabble."
1t was originally located a few miles
from its present position, but in the re-
moval has been preserved intact and
as built by Farmer Grant in
1854.
1t is constructed Of logs. and has two
large rooms, with old-fashioned fire
places and mantel. At the time Of its
erection it was considered a very. COM

The cabin is now the property of Mr..
Edward JOY a wealthy real estate

A COLORADO GIRL IN MANILA,
Miss Mary McCloud Distinguishes
Herself In the Services of Her
Country.

The Manila Times has the following
on the arrival Of the government nurses
on the transport Ohio: The Miss Mary
McCloud mentioned is a sister of
Judge Richard McCloud of Durango,
Colorado nu.a
The seven government nurses who
arrived here from Frisco on the trans
port Ohio few days ago, were all de-
tailed for duty at the First Reserve this
week. Previous to their coming there
was no chief nurse in charge of the
government women nurses in the
Philippine islands. The one to hold this
position in Manila now, and who was
given that appointment before leaving
Frisco, by the United States govern
ment, is Miss Mary McCloud, who was
chief nurse in various army hospitals
in the United States ever since the
beginning of the Spanish-American
war
I little thought when 1 first entered
the Joseph Simpson hospital CO. S.
General Hospital, Fortress Monroe.
Gao, in July, 1885, said Miss McCioud'
when seen by Times reporter that
L would ever come to Manila

serve, and who was on duty for sew
eral months in the Joseph Simpson
hospital, told the writer that Miss Nc
Cloud was not only a woman who be-
came prominent by her education and
good works as a nurse in Fortress
Monroe, but she was also chief nurse
in Savannah, Ga, and chief assistant
nurse at the Preside until just before |
she left San Francisco for Manila.
The other government nurses who |
came to Manila with her, and the |
names of the hospitals from which they
were graduated. are: Miss Ducks !

sonn. They report a splendid voyage
Ill the way over
The other two new government
nurses are Miss Danford and Miss
south, who came ON the transport
indiana. Miss South is detailed in the
operating room of the First Reserve.
I'm view of the very large number
+ patients being cared for at the First
Reserve and of more troops coming to
danfla, the authorities here have
for twenty-five more
rained nurses. This will increase the
resent number of women nurses at the
first Reserve to fifty-fve not includ-
lg a dozen more auxiliary nurses
