ATErRInLr ORpEAL.-Grace Geo

ATEFRIBLE ORDEAL.-Grace George,
staring in "Pretty Peggy" at the
Heald Square Theater, New York, went
through her lines last night under cir
cuhstances so trying that her physician
fears for her health. While she sang,
danced and brought roars of laughter
from the audience her only'child, two
years old, was dying at the Sorrento
apartments. Miss George is Mrs. VIII
lam A. Brady. The child was taken
i'll in the morning and grew worse so
rapidly that at 1880 o'clock it was de-
eided 10 abandon the matinee. Orders
were given to refund money for tickets,
and hundreds were turned away. AT
6 O'Clock the child rallied, but Mrs.
Brady was by this time in a serious
nervous conditions. Her physician told
Mr.. Brady that she had best appear as
usual Tuesday night, and in order to
get her to leave the baby's bedside the
actress was told then he was much better.
At first she refused to leave the house,
but finally she went to the theater on
the promise that she should receive bull
letins every 10 minutes. At 10 o'clock
the baby had a hemorrhage, but Mrs.
Brady was not informed, and went
through her part in the belief that the
child was improving. Between the acts,
and, in fact, every timeI she left the stage
the actress burst into tears. She was IN
such condition that the attendance of a
physician was necessary. The moment
the curtain was rung down on the final
act Mrs. Brady jumpedinto cab without
stopping to change her costume for her
street dress and was driven home as fast
as the horse could travel When she
Joined her husband and learned that the
child would probably not live until
morning she collapsed.

recently published in medical book,
declares that The carpet must so. In

home f r the gladstone microbe.
The dirt that carpets gath r, he
goes on to Say, CONES from the street,
and is, Consequently, as full of i'm
purities and bacteria as it we'll can be.
The latter cling to the soft pile until
they are dis edged by the broom, when
they fill the air and present y get in
to the lungs of whoev,r is near. and
begin tn. ir nefarious wo k of ruin
ing the constitution.
1t is certainly not nc" thought,
and the worst Of it is that it sounds
plausible as do all the things that the
unpleasant seeker after microbes has
to say on tn It subject
The y. trot physician points out
that the Only way that awful resu is
are to be avoided is TO give up not
only the CARPET self, but also all
large and heavy rugs. Bare floors
must be the rue, according to this
authority, unless one consents to use
light mats that may be taken out of
doors to be shaken. Even then What
happers to the shaker 'sa matt'r for
sad conf cure.
There is one alternative after all
! if cur n.rE folks can be inl"c :! t r''-
move their s Oes in o. ie.ntal fashion
before Il tering the house, all may yet
be well. OF course. the women will
have 20 follow suit, and when those

legged t. s'e tiny. ny h-heeled shoes

it will be the part Of prudence to go
in the back Way so that the visitors
won't see us, ard thus escape the lor-
rors of a lengthy nversaticn with
out pet aversion, Mrs. Jones.
There are people who, even in this
enlig h'ened age, do not believe in the
merry bacillus, and they are the ones
who, at the risk Of life and limb, will
cling to the deadly carpet, 70 matter
what the result.
They poi,.t to the fact that their
ancestors used carpets and 'ived to be
80 years old or more. They say that
of great-grandmother Smiths eleven
children all but one lived to be over
so, and that one was. killed by bull.
But those " no ar. lie thus are foo ish
o. ople and vain. The reason the busy
bacillus did not finish in very short
order those i. norant ONES of o]den
times VAS because he had not been
discovered then, and there is no glory
in killing persons if no one knows who
did it. Now that the modern indl-
v;dual stands in shuddering fear of
moving lest he run into a microbe,
there is fun to the latter in running
him down. A cloudy sky and an
ca ter y wind bespeaks hunting NOR

But what to do wi h the Carpets
that We ar, ady have is the problem
that will now afflic. house keepers. If
they have any particularly beautiful
ones that they want to give away, no
doubt some worthy immune can be
found who will take them, even with
with their minu and disagreeable in

The money pays off prior debts, funded
and floating, and gives about $4,000, 900
for capital needed for the operation Of en-
terprizes. This will permit the company
to lay In stock of ore and coal for Its
two blast furnaces and thus will enable
it to start its steel rail mills, capable Of
making 900 tons a day. There are album
dant orders on hand for these mills, and
the government has put on a duty Of 81
a ton, which will give the mill all the
Canadian business it can handle.
A short time ago this company COM
peted for rail orders for Canadian roads,
and made a price Of $32 a ton, but was
beaten by German makers who bid down
to $2S. With the present duty added the
German price would have been $35, giving
the orders to the Sault mills These are
the only rail mills in all Canada. They
have been built on latest designs and are
supposed to be economical and efficient.
One of the furnaces will make charcoal
iron, and it is expected high class OF
rails will be rolled.
It is current rumor that the entire hold
ings in stock Of the consolidated company
held by r. H. Clergue, its promoter, have
been sold at a fair price to syndicate
of large stockholders, and that he Is now
fully out of all connection with the COM
pany Mr.. Clergue Is interested In an
important railway project, on which con-
str,1ction work is soon to begin.

senger train. smashing the coach in and
injuring nearly every one of the sixty &C.

it's side and partially down an embank-

The train crew removed the injured tc

and others were brought to the hospitals

Following the proclamation of the revo-s

the insurgents cut all the telegraph lines
connecting the city Of Adrianople with the
eastern parts of the vilayet.
There are unconf1rmed rumors here that

Reports from Monastir, authenticated
by the Russian and Austrian consuls,
give horrifying details of the massacres
and atrocities. At the village Of Armen-

the governor general, for his speech in
behalf Of the preferential trade idea.
Canada, he declared, should not con-
tribute cent to the defense Of the en-
pire. England should provide the feet
and army necessary to protect the prov.
inces she acquired, and pay for them
without calling on the colony. Canada
would have enough to do to defend herself.
In the event Of a war with the states, Mr..
Bourassa said that the state Of New York
alone could pour more troops into Canada
| than the entire military force Of the Do
rninion. s
He did not wish rupture with the
mother country, unless Mr.. Chamberlain
| and the jingoes forced their views on the
people Of Canada In which event the en-
pire would break up.
He was In favor Of the status quo being
maintained until Canada was strong
enough to strike out for herself Refer
| ring to Lord Mimic, Mr.. Bourassa de-
scribed him as a good disguised rider of
English race horses and g. creature Of
Chamberlain. Lord Mimic had no more
right to take sides on such question
than had the worlds great peacemaker,
King Edward, and In doing so he had act
| ed not as the representative of the sove-
reign, but Of Mr.. Chamberlain whose
creature he was. Mr.. Bourassa's remarks
were loudly applauded and strong anti
imperial resolutions favoring the main
tenance Of the status quo were adopted
