The BIG
BRIDGE FALLS;

Chester, Pa, Aug. 26. The heavy
iron draw bridge on the line of the
Southwestern trolley road, at Crum
Creek, became loosened from its sup
ports while being turned to-day, and
the entire structure fell into the
creek with a loud crash. Bridgetend-
er Christopher Hllliard b ad narrow
escape from death. The overhead
supporting irons formed q cage about
him. One OF the electric wires struck
him on one side OF the head. The
shock stunned him, but he pluckily
held on to the massive crank, which
he operates in turning the bridge.
George Gardner and Owen Dough-
erty, who we're on the bridge, slid
along the floor structure, the side
railing OF which saved them from go.
ing into the water. One of William
Waro S stone barges, which had just
passed, narrowly escaped being
struck, and few minutes before tho
structure collapsed trolley car con.
tanning many passengers passed over
it. The fal len bridge has blocked

Found In Vatican Gardens,

Rome. August 26 An Anaf chist, armed
with large cavalry revolver and a dag.
ger was discovered lurking in the Natl-
can gardens as the Pope was being car
ried from lis private apartments to a car.
riugs for his daily drive.
The assassin was seized by Swiss
guardsman who had been attracted to the
spot by a suspicious noise in the shrub
bory, but he mado such fierce resistance
that ho was nov overcome until two gar
deners went to the guardsman's aid.
Ths prisoner. fur from seeking to con-
ceal bis purpose, gloried in IT, boas ing
that he wanted to remove the spiritual
giant who is keeping millions Of men in
thraldom. He frankly said he had been
hiding In the Rardeus aIl the morning
and hal expected to get near enough to
the Pope to kill him
After he had boon disarmcl anl ques
toned the man was handed over to the
Italian police, who are keeping his iden-
tity u secret and doing their best to Keep
the facts connected with his arrest from
becoming public.
Not even the Pope himself has been In
formed Of the danger he was in.
How the anarchist got into the garden
has not been asoertaned. Tar eatoning
letters, anonymous of course, had beep
received from time to time for some weeks
by Cardinal Rampolla. tho Papal Secro-
tary Of State, but no attention had boen
paid to them. Now extraordinary pre-.
cautions havo been taken to protect the
Pope,
The Noble Guards have strict orders to
fire on any stranger approaching the Pope
when he Is taking his accustomed walk
or drive about the Vatican gardens
1t Is said that the arrest has led to tho
discovery Of an anarchist plot to murder
the Pope.

CUNNING FOR "REEDIEs."
Sportsmen Were Out Bright and
Early Yesterday.

| The reed bird season opened ycster'
day and the local sportslnen will now be
J in their glory for several weeks. Many
sunners went out to the marshes bright
and early after the little game. All day
| the popping Of guns could be heard along
| the Delaware marshes. Uncle Billy
Heal was among those who went out
from this city and Uncle Billy" bag.
gtd many of the little birds The Game
Protective Association had detectives OF.
the marshes to see that no Cnr killed raj
birds, and also 10 see that 10 nonr"Si
dents were cunning without the required
license.
Joseph i. Gross. prominent local
sportsman, was out on the marshes yes
tcrday morning looking over the sitna-
ton, but did no cunning. Mr.. Cross says
that In his opinion it was big mistak"
to have the reed bird law changed
whereby the season opens II week earlier
than in past years. He says the birds
nrr scarce and those that hav" put in
appearance are very poor. The first
northorly wind. however will bring the
birds. Mr.. Gross saws thar there were
many gnnnrrs out yesterday but that
those who frequent the marshes rr-rl'
lally every season, were absent. The
two recent storms brought with them he
rail birds and they could he seen on the
marshes Yesterday by the hundreds.
The rail bird season opens September
