THE FOURTH A DAUGHTER.
Czarina of Russia Gave Birth TO Child
Tuesday-Couple Were Married
In 1894.

st. Petersburg. June ia daugh-
ter has been born to the car and
czarina of Russia. This is the fourth
child. The other three-Olga, Tatiana
and Marie--are girls, too. The new
daughter will be named Anastasia.
The fact that these four children are
girls may change the destinies of u
nation that includes a tenth of the
worlds population. The car, who is
intensely pious, prayed long and ear
nestly beI ore the birth of each that the
child might he boy, and therefore
heir to the Russian throne. The fail
ure of Providence to answer the pray
err has convinced many superstitious
Russians that God does not favor the
rule of the car, especially as for
century or more the first born of each
car has been boy.
The car is nervous and rather del
icate man. Should he have no son, the
throne will pass to Grand Duke Mi
chael, the only brother he has left,
and after Michael, who is not yet mar
ried, save n morganatic marriage,
comes the cars uncle, Grand Duke
Vladimir. The car and czarina were
married in 1854. She is in her twen-
ty-ninth year.

OATH BOUND BAND.
Eight Leaders of Filipino Murder
Society to Hang.
Mall from Manila Brings Stories of Awful
Atrocities Committed by the "sanda-
thons"- Helpless Men and Women
Their Victims.

Washington, June 1s.-A Philippine
mail brings TO the war department
the records in IL cases wherein Fill
pinos were tried by military commits
sioners on charges including murder,
rape, kidnapping, assault and battery,
burglary and violation of the rules
of war. An especially notable case
arose out of the operations of ia
nous oath-bound band of Filipinos
called the society of the "Sanda-
tbans." The principal officers of this
society, next to q triumvirate OF
chiefs, are a chief eXecutioner and as
sistants and requisite number of
grave diggers who participate in the
self-appointed work of the band. The
leaders select their victim, capture
aud carry him away in the night to
a secret rendezvous on a sandy beach
covered with very tall grass, where
the diggers already have prepared the
grave. Here, in the presence of the
assembled band, helpless men and
women from time to time have been
stabbed to death and tossed into the
graves. The members of the band
then disperse, and trust to the rise
and fall of the nearby waters to hide
the evidence of their ghastly work.
Ten members Of the band, including
two of the chiefs, were tried before
a military committee and eight OF
them were sentenced to be hanged.
