FoRGETs HER OWN NAME.
Peculiar Case of Woman Foua,
Wandering I'm the Streets
Of New York.

One of the most singular cases OF
aphasia, or loss of memory, resulting
in the loss of identity, in the whole his
tory of the police and medical author
tiles of New York city was encountered
by the physicians of ST. Nincent's hos
pital the other day.
There was a fashionably dressed WON
an there who found herself lost in the
streets of New York, with not the
slightest recollection of her own name,
the names of relatives or of the street
in which she lived. She was perfectly
rational, but her memory had deserted
her in all essential matters relating to
her past. She was unable to account
for her condition, but intelligently as
sisted the police and doctors TO unveil
the mystery of her identity.
After she had been in the hospital all
day she was taken away by a man who
said he was her husband, but whom she
failed to recognize when he called after
reading an account of her case in the
afternoon newspapers. He refused to
give his name and address and took
every p%recaution to avoid publicity.

GRIP CAR FENDER.
Other Things Which Fail
from Wagons.

The untold and hitherto unsupported
possibilities of the street car fender as
a collector OF things various was limited
at by an occurrence on Washington
street the other day, whereby the gem
tie gripman came out considerably
ahead of the game, reports a Chicago
paper. A market wagon laden to the
guards with sides of beef and hams and
barrels of tenderloin and other things
edible and every way pleasant to look
upon even in their raw and unwashed
condition was occupying the track in
front of a Madison street cable train.
The gripman sounded the gong Justify
and the driver of the meat wagon at
tempted to pull out of the track to
make way. But the grip was too close
for comfort and it grazed the wagon,
jarring the load and splitting half a
dozen hams on the ground.
The driver pulled up his horse hastily
when he had cleared the track and
jumped off to gather the precious prod
uce from the street, but two of the
hams fell within the tracks and were
promptly scooped up by the fender.
The gripman threw his weight on the
lever and the train shot along toward
the west with the hams reposing safely
on the steel carrier, probably to enrich
the larder of the gripman. Now, IL
some one would drop an occasional
overcoat or a | barrel of -four now and
then in front of a cable car the life Of
the gripman would be one long. purple
| holiday.

CANINE MAID OF N
A Baltimore wedding Recently In
PRODUCED Some Startling
Novelties.

Here is a story of Il Baltimore mar
riage which simply overturned popu-
lar traditions and set all Baltimore in
conversation. The benedict, says the
Chicago Chronicle. was Francis B.
Stevens. Jr., of Hoboken. N. j., while
Miss Adele Horwitz played the Beatrice
of the startling occasion.
There was neither maid of honor nor
bridesmaid. but the bride entered the
d~rawing-room accompanied by her pet
fox terrier, Jock, around whose collar
were entwined orange blossoms, from
which streamers of white ribbon flowed.
During the ceremony Jock, after view
ing the guests, sat upon the floor at the
feet Of his mistress. Mr.. and Mrs.
Benjamin F. Horwitz gave their daugh-
ter diamond clasps for her slippers,
and her gown was so arranged that
these CONNECTIONS of white liberty vel
vet and their jeweled fastenings could
be seen by the guests.
After the wedding the friends Of Mrs.
Stevens paid her back in her own coin
for the many practical jokes which she
had been wont to play upon the So
ciety people of her native city. The
carriage which conveyed the bridal
party to the station was decorated
with various wedding articles and ere
ated a sensation as 1t drove through the
streets Of Baltimore. Long streamers
of white ribbon were tied at every pos
sible point of vantage and p%lacards an
nouncing that the occupants were
bride and bridegroom were attached
to the sides and real.

THEY CAN'T BE USED.
Captured Spanish Ordnance Of No
Practical Use to Us.
Our Ammunition Will Not Fit Guns,
Which Also Are Not Of the
Most Modern Type
of Weapon.

There has been some speculation az
TO what disposition the navy depart
ment will make of the modern guns can.
tured from Spain during the recent war.
1t has been generally understood that
the obsolete ordnance would figure
only as souvenirs for distribution by
the government to states and munich
pallties, but there was quite a number
OF serviceable modern mo mostly
naval guns captured at Santiago, Ma
ma and elsewhere. 1t is stated by the
department that these guns are not
likely to form a very valuable asset.
The 4.7-inch guns from the Maria
Teresa, the Viscaya and the Colon, sew
eral of which are now at the Washing
ton navy yard, are not the most mod
ern type OF this weapon. They are diff
ferent in caliber from any gun of the
American navy, except those of the
New Orleans and the Albany, now be-
ing completed abroad. The six-inch
qulck-ire guns captured also require
special ammunition, not being adapted
to our six-inch shells, so that, except
in case of accident to one of the guns
of the New Orleans or Albany, there
would be small! likelihood of getting
any of the captured ordnance into sery-
ice. The question of boring out the
captured guns to the next higher cal
iber was considered, but rejected as
reducing too greatly the factor CT
safety.
There is on hand quite a supply, of
ammunition for the peculiar armament
of our two adopted cruisers, and it is
thought by the time this is used up this
country will be in a position to supply
them with all of the sort of ammunition
they need.
1t is interesting to note that the new
guns being planned for the navy will
conform in certain material respects
to those of the New Orleans, which was
classed by all the officers who saw her
in action during the war as a marvel
lousy quick-tiring, hard-shooting piece
CT naval architecture. Her guns are all
$50 calibers long" that is, the barrel is
so times the length of the diameter of
the bore. Our standard has been 40
calibers, but the longer gun seems to
bear about the same relation to the
shorter as the As caliber rifle does to
the revolver of the same bore. It is
this popularity of the barrel guns that
develops their remarkable muzzle ve-
locity of something like $500 feet. The
new guns planned for our navy are ex-
pected to develop about 5000 feet We
locity. 1t is expected that this new
type of the six-inch quick-firer, with
Its additional penetrating power, will
make it an even more terrible weapon
than that demonstrated itself to be in
our two memorable actions with the
Spanish fleets.

When they reached the street Gielow
Jagged behind again.

The count lost patience, and putting
a hand on each of Gielow's shoulders,
he turned him roughly to him.

manded. mo, right in the eyes! There
now, you remember killing Caruthers!"
Eyes, the s%coundrel," was the artists
slow reply. "Yes, I killed him."
Then come on, they are after YOU"
A look of terror spread over Gielow's
visage. He ~quickened his steps, and to-
gether they turned into a dark, TN
frequented alley. Here a two-horse car
rage stood in the shadow of a high
wall. A mar wearing a SLOUGH hat,
and a long fur ulster, the wide collar
of which hid the back part of his head
and the lower half of hiE face, stood
near the vehicle whipping his body with
his arms to keep warm.
"Ahl" he exclaimed, and then an oath
broke from him.
"Sh!" Kissed the count apologetically.
II know we were slow, but 1t couldn't
be avoided"
The man continued to grumble, and
began to get his reins ready.
Get in; get in!" said Bantinni to
Gielow, and when the artist had obeyed
he leaned into the carriage and said:
"You are sleepy. There, that's right;
lean back and sleep. Sleep! Sleep!"
Hes all right now, and We'll have no
more trouble" the count said, in a con
ciliatory tone, to the driver.
Did he go through it all right?"
asked the man, with n foreign accent.

the other, distrustfulfy.

"Ah, true!" answered the man; "un-

the carriage.

NEW WAY OF EARNING FEES.
Gotham Doctors Forbidding Re-
newal of Prescriptions With.
out Orders.

Only a short time ago several physi-
clans prominent in q special branch Of
practice met to decide in what way
they could best bring to the attention
of a colleague a question that interest
ed them greatly. This physician, says
the New York Sun, was almost the best
known in his specially in the city, but
his charges, in view of his reputation,
have always been so moderate that his
associates felt the need of protesting.
But it was decided not to protest, and
the physician received only an intima-
ton that his fees sometimes astonished
his brothers in the profession. One
physician in town has recently intro
duced a practice which is said to be
increasing in popularity with the pro-
fession, and it is likely that the Gus
tom will be adopted widely by those
physicians who have authority enough
to attempt anything so novel. This loo
tor has his patients take the lrescrip-
ton to a druggist who is forbidden by
the terms of his agreement to renew
the prescription except upon a written
order from the doctor. No patient can
get his bottle or box refilled unless he
brings the new prescription, which
means, of course, another visit to the
doctor. The bottles are of a size hat
lasts for a week. In some cases the
same medicines are renewed week after
week, but with the order that comes
only from the visit to the doctor. They
are changed in few cases. The profess
sion has not protested against this new
fashion as yet, and it is not likely that
it will. But it is only the influential
and authoritative among the physicians
that are able to attempt it.

When Gielow and Count Bantinnilef
the studio on the night the murder was
committed, they s%tealthily descended
to the street by means of the dimly
lighted stairway rather than by the ele-
vator.
Gielow started in the direction of the
elevator, but the count grasped his arm
and hastily drew him along one of the
darkest corridors.
Not that way, fool!" he said between
his teeth. "Do you want to expose
yourself to the view of everybody in the
gaslight? You have not a moment to
spare. The police and Hendricks are
on your track"
NO, not a moment to spare" echoed
the artist in a l~istless, dreamy tone, and
he stopped, leaned against the wall and
looked back towards the studio.
The count caught him roughly by
the arm and shook him violently.
II tell you the murder has been dis
covered!" he Kissed in the ear of the
artist.
"The murder?" repeated Gielow, "the
murder, you say?"
Yes, you remember killing caruth-
ers."
yes, suppose SO. 1t seems to me
and yet"
"Come on" burst from the lips of the
count. Come on, or you'll be arrested.
