INJURIES PROVED FATAL.
Mrs. Fierce, Who Was Ruh b. Fall From a
Tro Ter Car, Dies at Her Hcme.

Mrs. Christopher Peirce, who was
fatally injured by falling from an cleo
trio car at the foot of College hill on
Thursday night. died yesterday after
noon. Or. r. c. Sweet. who was called
to attend the aged sufferer, made every
effort possible to restore consciousness
and life. but the advanced age of Mrs.
peIrce together with the severity Of the
shock made the injury fatal and she
died from a fracture at the base OF the
sLuI, nroduced by the blow She did
net regain consciousness TO the time OF
her death.
II Is believed that Mrs Peirce's fall
WAS caused by an attack OF faintness.
The car had not started when she fell.
therefore there was no jolt or shock.
Mrs Peirce was 20 years old and had
been feeble for some time, which would
lend color to the theory that she had
become suddenly dizzy.

Speaking Of weddings. one would
think that even the knife OF fate would
be dul!ed in an attempt to saw through
that nuptial knot that was tied in New.
port the other day. Ono can imagine
with what feelings Of relief that much
married couple the Prince and Princess
Cautacuzene got out Of All Sainte
chapel after the final blessing. To be
married for an hour straight by the
Greek church. with all kinds Of bowiug
and candle carrying and salsamipg, not
to mention that juggling with rings,
calculated to drive q man crazy, il
was enough one would have thought.
Going through with another long and
solemn ceremony under tho sanction Of
:he church of England. muat have
seemed triAs superfuous to the A.
mericans concerned at least. I've always
he'd that nothing could take the edge
off the awful solemn nifty Of the Episcopal
service but I'm inclined t., think the
knowledge that was getting through
my second wedding before the first was
twenty-four hours old would do it. I'm
glad the poor things got away from
their spectacle loving friends before
they thought Of the Sioux ceremony
for they might have insisted upon
third ceremony after that fashion. II
is q matter Of satisfaction after oil to
know that tho pretty granddaughter Of
tho great Grant 10 90 we'll married and
may tho sword that tbrusts at happiness
DO broken.

ed In the basement. whore . pretty
room was curtained of to serve az

ton OF Mrs. Thomas Darnall who was

exactly suit tho Centenary church at
