For some years there has lived at
the foot of Nagyssal, in Hungary, a
hermit named Bodmuller, who. dwell
ing in a miserable hut, edited all the
locality by his austerity and piety,
Some weeks ago, however, he came un-
der police surveillance, and to escape
their undesirable attentions, he deter
mined to set fire to his hut with a
view Of giving rise to the idea that he
had persisted in the flames. Unfor-
tunately for the success of this device,
he was recognized at the West Sta
tion at Buda-Pesth by a detective, who
took him to the police station. On
the way the holy man amused himself
by throwing money at the crowd, but,
unfortunately, the coins were bad. The
hermit was in reality a base coiner;
and he now occupies a 'cell" in the
prison of the capital of Hungary.

snakes even Q reduction in numbers
worth the effort It requires.

ROMANCE Of 1RANSVAAL
NIECE OF GENERAL JOUBERT TO
WE'D.
The Groom is an Italian officer Who
Has had a Most Adventurous and
Varied Career.


Colonel RicchiardL eX-commandant
of the Italian legion in the Transvaal,
has Just arrived at Brussels to complete
the arrangements for his marriage with
Miss Myre Guttmann, niece of the late
General Joubert and sister-in-law of
Mr.. Eloff, nephew and private secre-
tary of Mr.. Kruger. Ricchiardi was
born at Alba and served as captain in
the Italian army; was afterward COM
missioned to Siam in 1893 as director of
the military college of Bangkok. The
Siamese government sent him to Aus
tralia for the purchase of mounts for
the Siamese cavalry, after which he
was delegated by the same government
as commissioner to the Chicago eXhi-
bition. At the close of the worlds fair
he went to China as a journalist; then
to the Philippines as war correspond
ent, where he had frequent interviews
with Aguinaldo. In 1899 he went to the
Transvaal as war correspondent short
ly after the outbreak of hostilites.
Four months afterward he enlisted as
volunteer in the commando of Kru-
gersdOrp. Wounded at COlenso, he was
sent to the Pretoria hospital. There he
met Miss Guttmann for the first time
in her role of hospital nurse and fell
in love with her. Ricchiardi was
wounded a second time at Dalmanutha
/ in August last year. He II was who
was sent by Botha to Roberts on Sept.
6 with the Boer proclamation
regarding the annexation Of the two
republics. RicChiardi met Miss Quit
mann AGAIN at Modderspruit in General
Joubert's lager whittier she had ac-
/ Companied her aunt, Nine. Joubert.
4 Again they met when Mr. Kruger ar
! rived at Marseilles, and here it was
that they We're affianced. At first Mr..
J Kruger opposed the marriages OWING
to the difference i'm religion, Colonel
Ricchiardi being a Catholic, hut finally
withdrew his opposition owing to his
personal esteem for the colonel.-Chi-

CHURCHILL.

Winston ChurchilTs new novel of the
civil. war. The Crisis" was published
May 20, yet it has already sold 100000
copies, and the demand seems undated
Literature is not so despicable a pro-
fession nowadays for those who pull out
the plums. Mr.. Churchill has been be-
fore the public some three years, and in
that time has published three books
which together must have sold their
half-million copies. The authors profits
should come to some Sl50,000, to say
nothing of the stage rights to Richard
Carvel' which must mean a good many
thousands more. Altogether this young
writer must be making well over sac, 900
a year at the very outest of his pro-
fession, a sum which would not seem
small to men who by a life-tim of work
have gained eminence at the bar in the
church, or in medicine. But ambitious
young writer's who gloat on these fig
ures must bear in mind that they are as
misleading as the reports of fortunes
made in stocks. Such prizes are the
very rare exception, and luck counts for
quite as much as merit,-Springfiel
Republican.

induce them to remain in the fight to the end. Since, May 20, over $40,0OO has been distributed among strikers and as yet no regular system of ben fits has gone into force.
 A resolution was passed, asking the American Federation of Labor to levy an assessment as provided for in their constitution to provide funds for the strikers. In the event of long drawn out fight, an appeal for aid will also be made to the trade organizations of Great Britain, who were assisted by the machinists in their struggle for an eight-hour day. Regarding the ques- tion of finances, President O'Connell said that special fund amounting to over $150,OOO was still intact.
 The convention almost unanimously voted down a resolution pledging the association to socialism. 1t was also decided that certificate of death from a Christian Scientist doctor would not be recognized in the future in claim for death benefits.
 The convention will conclude to- night. President O'Connell received word yesterday that twenty-six firms in California had granted shorter hours and an increase in pay. Mil waukee is the favorite for the next place of meeting.

sERENADED THEIR CoMRADE. Fire Laddies Changed their Bells While
 Marriage Was Being Performed.

There was big sensation In the vicinity of the Immaculate Conception church this morning prior to the mar riage of Philip Debeaulieu, who is u member of the fire department. Two of the hose wagons stopped opposite the church and the drivers commenced changing the bells in manner which led people to conclude that big fire was under way on the outside. In sfl instant windows were thrown up in every block and heads burst through them, all anxious to know where the confagration was located. After a commotion, indulged in a good laugh and then sat down to breakfast with appetites sharpened considerably on account of the little excitement
