The Brazilian minister at Washington
has communicated to the United States
department the fact that Baron d.
Parana In Rio Janeiro has succeeded In
producing a cross between the zebra
and the mare, q hybrid which Is much
larger and handsomer than the mule.
The male used Is what Is known as
Burchelrs zebra, a native Of South
Africa, which Is naturally less wild and
more tractable than the mountain
zebra, and which has been so far do
mesticated as to work in teams Of six,
eight or more together, or with the
same number Of horses, though II does
not work kindly singly or In pairs, as In
its native haunts 1t went In large droves
for protection against other wild
beasts. The baron claims that they, are
more docilc and gentle than the ordln-
airy mule, quicker, softer mouthed, with
no tendency to kick, remarkably
sprightly, have extraordinary muscular
strength, and are much less subject to
disease and far easier cared for than
the mule.

ANOTHER TRAIN WRECKED.
Colored Porter Killed In Accident
Near Oelwin Iowa.

Oelwin, Ia, May 2S.-The Chicago
Great Western passenger train that
left st. Paul Saturday night, was
wrecked two miles north of here this
morning. Richard Manning, of Mime
apolis, the colored porter, was killed.
Several men and women on the train
were more or less seriously injured.
The train was running over lowlands
when the track began to settle and the
train was derailed.
Nearly all of the passengers in the
sleepers were undressed, and in their
berths when the wreck occurred. The
rain was coming down furiously, light
ming was flashing and thunder pealing
The porter was crushed to death at the
forward end of the first sleeper

WORK OF TURKISH BUTCHERS
DRAMATIC RECITAL OF BLOOD
CURDLING EVENTS.
Rev. George S. Barsoom, Native of
Constantinople, Delivers Two Ad-
dresses-Appeal to Americans.

Rev. George S. Barsoom. an Armen-
ian, a native of Constantinople, &C.
cupied the pulpit of the First Methodist
church in this city yesterday morning
and was greeted by large congrega-
ton In the evening he addressed an
other large audience in the First Con-
gregational church and depicted in a
dramatic way the horrors of the mas
sacre of the Armenian Christians by
the Turks.
Mr.. Barsoom was victim of Turkish
deviltry and could speak from personal
experience. He graduated from Robert
college in Constantinople five years
ago. Soon after he attracted the atten-
ton of the Turks by winning first prize
in an oratorical contest. They demand
ed that he embrace Mohammedanism.
He refused. They stabbed him and left
him for dead. But he lived and after
five months in a hospital he ESCAPED
on an English vessel and came to
America. His fathers business was
ruined, his brother and two children
were killed, his sister was carried off
and outraged and two weeks later her
dead body was found in the noun
tains.
This young man, who is now but %,
went back to Turkey and after sore
trials rescued his father, mother, four
sisters and two brothers and brought
them to Boston where they now live.
All these narrowing details were
given with great dramatic power and
created a deep impression on all who
heard them. He told of many other
butcheries and crimes that seem too
horrible to be true and closed with
an appeal to Americans who had
cleaned out the Spanish butchers to act
in behalf of Armenia and in the cause
of liberty, civilization and Christianity
Mr.. Barsoom speaks in all the large
cities of this country in his endeavor
to arouse the people against the Turk
He goes from here to Denver today,
then to Omaha and on east; later he
goes to England. He spoke before the
British parliament two years ago. He
is now taking a course in medicine in
Johns Hopkins university. Baltimore
He completes that next year and then
goes to Armenia as medical mission
airy.

The Vain Empress of Germany.
0ondon Mai


The German empress has passed
through troublous times of late. She
has had a sad time with her hair.
When the silver threads began to come
the empress was very much depressed
about ii, and an accommodating friend
got her a bottle of hair dye, war
ranted harmless. The misguided en-
press used it, with usual dire results
She would gladly have gone into retire
ment for awhile, but that was impos-
sible, and with fear and trembling she
presented herself at the next family
meal. The august William gave her
one awful look, and then demanded
the bottle. In vain she protested that
there was NO bottle. The emperor
searched until he found it, when he dis
posed at one fell swoop of the stuff
and the man who had sold it. But the
empress was not to be daunted, and, at
her request, friend sent to Paris for
another dye, which was duly applied.
The very next morning the emperor
eyed his wife with wrath, and demand
ed who had sold her that gliding, so
shameful to see on the head of
mother and spouse" So that bottle
went the way of the first. The en-
press did not fancy going about in
motley, so far as her hair was con-
cerned. so she again appealed to her
friends to procure something which
would completely blanch the hair. The
final experiment is said to have been
successful. So young. and yet so
false! 1t is impossible to believe that
the bonny brown-haired empress is
now q white-haired old woman.

BOARD OF ARBITRATION
Peace Delegates Believe One Will
Be Established.
AMERICANS ARE HOPEFUL
ALREADY TALK OF THE COMPo-
SITIoN OF THE TRIBUNAL.
Other Subjects Advanced By the
Representatives of the United
States Are Being Favorably Con-
sidered-Provisions Regarding
the Sick and Wounded.

The Hague, May 2S.-The newly APP
pointed subcommittee of the third
committee of the peace conference, the
| arbitration, will meet tomorrow. 1t
will be known as the drafting commit
tee, indicating. in its name, the scope of
its functions
The delegates have worked unceas-
ingly today, although the formal labors
of the conference were SUSPENDED. An
effort is being made, and with certain
degree of progress, to combine the Rus
sian and British proposals in such a
way that the report of the drafting
committee may secure the support of
both parties in the plenary committee.
NJ. de Staal and Sir Julian Pauncefote,
chiefs of the Russian and British dele
cations respectively, and other dele
gates. had a long conference today with
this end in view, and there is no doubt
that an agreement in principle will be
reached.
The hope of the delegates that a per-
manent arbitration board will be estab-
lished is rapidly improving. The differ
ent points now relate to the compost
ton of the tribunal, how the reDresen-
tation of the powers is to be arranged
and the limitations to be placed upon
the jurisdiction of the board.

Discovered BY a Woman

Another great discovery has been
made. and that too. by lady in this
country. Disease fastened its clutches
upon her and for seven years she with
stood its severest tests. but her vital
organs were undermined and death
seemed imminent. For three months
she coughed necessarily, and could not
sleep. She finally discovered a way to
recovery, by purchasing of US a bottle
of DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, and was so much relieved
on taking first dose, that she slept all
night: and with two bottles, has been
absolutely cured. Her name is Mrs.

LEHI HAS A BULL FIGHT.
Three-Legged Steer Causes A
Kinds of Commotion.

Lehi Banner: Spain is not the only coun-
try where bull fights are given We now
lay claim to one of these exciting events
though most of the performers were I'M
willing actors. Last Sunday night some
of the cattle feeding at factory corral got
on the track and were run over and in
jured by a train. and were found there
next morning. The injured ones were
left there for a while. and the owners
tackled the railway company for damages,
but were unsuccessful, as the cattle got
on the track through the gates being neg
ligently left open.
One of the animals was killed, but an
other one, with a broken leg, lay near the
railway watch house. The men who are
working on the silos left their dinner
baskets in this building and when the
noon whistle blew, they went there to eat.
Most of them were seated on the platform
joining the builolng when some of the late
corners arrived.
Just before reaching the platform they
waved their dinner buckets towards the
wounded steer. In moment he accepted
the challenge and was after them. Then
there was scattering of dinners and men
as they rushed for shelter in the building.
but the maddened steer came on as fast
as its three legs could carry him. Round
the building and pell-meil into the door
rushed the men.
The steer did not follow them, but run
around to the other side of the building
catching George Munns just as he was
boiling for the door. With one toss of his
head he had George down rolling in the
dust and stood guard over MS pr0Strdte
form and would not let him get up. After
several struggles and much wiggling he
got near the door, and the men pulled him
inside.
The noon hour passed, but men dare not
venture out to work. Eugene Briggs
hitched up his team and, as he was not
afraid of steers, he drove within the dam
ger line and there was soon a bad mix-up
of horses, steer, etc, and Briggs was
glad to get his outfit away as best he
could.
Charley Dorton arrived on the scene,
and hitched up the mems teams, but they
felt too safe inside the watch house to
venture out, especially Mr.. Munns. who
was badly done up. Mr.. Goodwin then
arrived on the scene and began a fusil-
lade on the steer with a pistol, but that
only made the animal more angry.
returned with a rifle and began boldly
approaching the danger line. Getting as
close as he dare, he took deliberate aim
at the animals braiS and fired. Just then
the steer dropped hfs head and the bullet
made the hair fly along his back.
With roar he jumped into the air and,
with astonishing speed, made for the man
with the gun. Though he is big man,
he made good time down the track, with
the steer a close second. Down the track
they sped. with the spectators shouting
and yelling. Mr.. Dorton finally lodged
through the fence and escaped. He loaded
up again and. approaching the guarding
fence took another shot, which ended the
fray.

THEORY Or ARBITRATION.
Americans Have Studied the Cues
ton Most Thoroughly.

London, May 2S.-The Times, in an
editorial dealing with the prospect that
the result of the peace conference will
be a permanent arbitration tribunal,
SG-c:
No government or people have de-
voted themselves with greater ardor to
the study of the theory of the arbitra-
ton than the government and people of
the United States. The Americans not
only possess great lawyers, but are a
community in which knowledge of legal
principles is more widespread than in
any other.
American jurists have done much to
mould the doctrines of international
law in the past, and in their treatment
of large questions they have often dis
played luminous insight, firm grasp of
fundamental principles and a solid cru
dition not surpassed by the legal writ
ers of any modern state"

SERMONS BY FATHER YOUMAN
PREACHED TWO D1scoURsEs AT
THE CATHEDRAL.
One Was On the Trinity and the
Other On the sufferings of the
Savior.

Taking as his text Through Him. In
Him and With Him Are All Things,
Father Youman, the Paulist mission
| airy, spoke of the trinity at st. Mary
| cathedral yesterday morning.
Reason tells us that there can be
| but one God. In the whole expanse of
the universe there can be but one be-
ing infinitely perfect, containing all
things and in all things.
In the scriptures of all religions the
doctrine of one only God is taught. How
then, do we account for the plurality
of persons, as is evident in the New
Testament, except We admit the doc
trine of the Trinity.
Notwithstanding that this mystery
is so deep, it seems to be received with
ease by every denomination, every sect
of Christendom, but one; perhaps this
is because it is felt that no mere man
could ever have conceived such a doc
trine.
THE dictrine of the Trinity is: In
God there are three persons in one di-
vine essence, the Father, Son and Holy
Spirit, really distinct. equal and of
one substance
In the evening, taking as his text,
ut is Consummated," he spoke briefly
of the sufferings of Jesus on the cross,
dwelling particularly on the mystical
meaning of the words Il thirst" and
showed how this thirst was the love for
souls, the desire of the Master to save
them and render them eternally hap
Ply.
In order that we may be able. with
Jesus, to say, 1T is consummated,' we
must live well, and to do this two
things are necessary-to cease TO do
evil and to persevere in doing good
Evil is sin, sin only, sorrow, pain,
sufferings, poverty are not evils, they
are only trials sent US by God for cur
sanctification.
But evil is part of our nature. we
live in it, We love it, and we can only
overcome it by the grace of God: and
to obtain this grace. to overcome evil,
we must give up all occasions of sin;
the person. the place, the work. every
thing which experience shows us to
have been the occasion of sin.
Then let us persevere in doing good,
let us love God and our neighbor, let
us make life one eternal song by doing
good, by helping our neighbor, by kind
ly words, by doing all that we can to
make him happy-this is the best
prayer"
After the sermon Father Youman an
nounced that he would give lecture
on India for the benefit of the lew
cathedral.
The services concluded with the papaI
benediction, the conservation to the
blessed virgin and benediction of the
blessed sacrament.
The mission for non-Catholics will
open at the assembly hall this evening
and continue through the week, clos
ing next Sunday. All Catholics are
urged to attend, with their nom Catho-
lie relatives and friends.

THE SICK AND WOUNDED.
Another Success Is Scored By the
United States.

London. May 2s.-The correspondent of
the Morning Post at The Hague says:
The discussion of the proposed modif-
cation of the Geneva convention provi-
slons regarding sick and wounded neu-
trails constitutes a distinct success for the
American delegates. When il was first
preached, the Russians declined to take
any part in the discussion. on the ground
that the subject was not mentioned in the
circular of Count Muravieff
The Americans urged that the Dutch
invitation included all subjects bearing
on the circular. a view which the confer
ence upheld. AS yet the Russians have
not abandoned their position, and they
will make another effort tomorrow TO
have the American proposals rejected on
technical grounds. Interesting develop
ments are expected
