Donald Hardisty, a Young Ca
madam, Suffering From a
Strange Affection Is in Seri-
Gus Condition at Hospital.

Donald Rardisty, we'll known attn
lete, who was suddenly stricken in
peculiar manner Sunday night, remains
in a serious condition. He is now at
the Bethesda hospital under the con-
slant care of two physicians, and
though his condition is serious, it is not
thought that he is fatally stricken.
His affection is of a peculiar nature,
and physicians were at first puzzled to
attribute cause to it. 1t has been
learned, however, that he is suffering
from the effects of an injury he re-
ceived several years ago.
His symptoms are most peculiar,
said DR.. J. P. Shepherd, of Indianapo-
lis, who is stopping at the Clarendon,
and was a friend of HardiSty'S years
ago. His muscles contract and relax
alternately. When the muscles con-
tract his limbs and body become as
rigid as though he were dead, then,
after an interval, the rightly lessons,
but only to return.
"He suffers great pain, and we are
obliged to keep hot applications con-
stantly upon his body to relieve the
strain upon the muscles.
1.-The affection is the result of an old
injury he received years ago when en-
gagged in athletic exercises. The injury
had not troubled him and was forgot
ten Recently his heart had been weak
and rendered him subject to the affiic-
ton with which he is now suffering"
Hardisty is under the care Of DR.. J.
]. Plat, but he insists on being attend
ed by DR.. Shepherd. DR.. Shepherd
was called to the hospital last night on
account of the serious condition of his
friend. DR.. Shepherd spent three hours
with Hardisty last night and succeed
ed in relieving him from a spasm that
threa tened to end his life,
Hardisty is an heir of Sir Donald
Smith and is well connected in Can
ada. He was educated at the Univer-
sity of Montreal and studied medicine.
He devoted much of his time while at
college to athletics and gained a wide
reputation He has been travelling
through the United States for several
years.

Cathedral, New York.

SdtneQrals new IoFk
NEW YORK, July 2S-The first
great service for the repose of the
soul of Pope Leo XIII. was celebrated
at st. Patrick's cathedral tonight. It
was the chanting of the "office for
the dead" The decorations Of the
vast edifce heightened the effect of
the ceremony. Bands of mourning,
edged with purple, encircleds the mas
sive white pillars and the marble pull
pit. The great catafalque rose fifteen
feet high at the gates of the sanctuary,
it's side and ends bearing the papal coat
of arms in blue and white Surmount-
ing it was the triple crown, in white
and gold, resting on crimson cushion.
while three great candles, ten feet
high, glimmered at each side
The church was crowded to the
doors with a throng that began as
sembling in the afternoon More than
hundred priests and seminarians
awaited in the vestry and then filed
out to the sanctuary with no accom-
paniment of music. Archbishop Far
ley was accompanied by Bishop-elect
Cotton, of Buffalo, and Mgr. Edwards.
Before him marched the Dominicans,
In their robes of white. and the Fran
clscans, clad In brown habits. Ranged
on both sides of the sanctuary. all
knelt in silent prayer for few min
utes. and then the Hoffice' was in
toned by the Rev. DR.. Richard o.
Hughes and Prof. Ungerer, director of
the sanctuary choir. After the psalms
had been chanted the lessons were in
toned. All chanted the "Miserere,"
and the ceremony was ended. by the
reading of the Commitment" by
the archbishop.

RUSHERS OF GROWLER
GET THREE MONTHS
Buying by the Pail In Vermont Is a Most
Grievous Sin.

MONTPELIER, VT, Julv 2S.-H you
have an inclination to rush the GROWER y
chase the can or, in plain English, get
a pint of beer in a saloon and take it
away with you in a pail, keep out of Yer
mont. If you don't you are liable to get
in jail for long term.
The city court of Montpelier has just
decided that this method of buying beer is
illegal under the present strict local OPP
ton law, and three men who had the
temerity to test ~the statute are now so
journing at the workhouse in Rutland
where they are. polishing marble for

Early in the week James Turner, Of
this city; Charles Childs, of Morrisville,
and H. C. Childs, of Waterbury, met in
Montpelier, and, having a great thirst,
went to a saloon, where they bought three
pints of beer in three pals. They then
adjourned to seclusion. where they treated
Several friends. 1t 50 happened that the
friends had been refused liquor on the
ground that they were chronic topers,
and when the authorities found this out
the arrest of the "growler rushers" was
ordered
A stiff fight was made by the defense,
but the court ruled that the sale of beer
by the pail was Illegal, and under the
statute each offender was sentenced to
the workhouse for three months. The
theory is that men who are refused liquor
at saloons can evade the law by getting
their friends to buy it for them.

CAR ESCAPES AND
TEARS MAD[Y down
WABASHA STREET
Left to Itself 1t Takes Advan-
taae of the Inviting Grade and
Runs to Eighth Street Before
Jumping the Track.

Escaping from it's motorman ana
crew one of the large supply cars OF
the Twin City Rapid Transit company
ran away early yesterday morning on
Wabasha street, and, uncontrolled, shot
down the tracks to Eighth and Wapa-
sha, where, encounterlng a SWltch' II
Jumped the tracks, and, running onto
the sidewalk, came to a stop within
two feet of the street railway coop
at Seventh and Wabasha streets.
The runaway car started at st. Peter
and Wabasha streets. After the
o'clock car had left for Minneapolis
yesterday morning, service on the lnes
running out Wabasha street was dls-
continued for the night and the supply
car was run to st. Peter street, Where
the crew proceeded to cut wires to
hermit a house to be moved across the
tracks
The current was cut off by the crew,
and without power the car was left
standing on the tracks. The motor
man apparently neglected to reverse
his rheostat, for, when the work OF
separating the wires was completed,
the crew proceeded to run the car out
of the way and pushed 1t onto sec
ton of live wire.
Before the motorman and crew
could realize their mistake the wheels
began to grind, and gaining speed the
car started down the Wabasha street
grade. Several of the crew and the
motorman pursued it, but gaining We
locity every instant the car rounded
the curve at Central avenue and tore
toward the city.
The toilers of the night, through
work and waiting for the owls, were
startled by loud roar, and looking up
Wabasha street saw swaying car
tearing down the tracks. Many fled
into doorways and side street, for 1t
appeared impossible for the runaway to
hold the tracks.
The expected happened at Eighth
street, where the loop cars turn into
Wabasha street. Speeding across
Eighth, the car struck the switch and
the wheels left the rails. The car, after
jumping, headed for saloon between
Seventh and Eighth streets, but just
when a wreck appeared inevitable, the
wheels struck the curbing, and, max
ing another half turn, the car rolled
along the pavement and came to
stop within few feet of the starters
station at Seventh street
large crew of trackmen were at
work at Seventh and Wabasha, and
after the 4 o'clock owls had been run
out on the different lines the big sup
ply car was moved back onto the
tracks, and, with it's motorman in
charge, rounded the loop and returned
out Wabasha, where the work of re-
storing the cut wires was completed.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, July 28-A
sensation was sprung in the circuit court
today when Judge M M. Allison called
the jury in the Whiteside will contest
case, involving an estate of nearly a mill
lion dollars, into court and asked them If
any attempt had been made to unduly
influence them in their verdict The jury
has been deadlocked for more than a
week
James Goodson, farmer, one of the
jurors, stated that ON Saturday he went
into the Chattanooga Savings bank and
asked for change for S. bill The teller
pushed him SO in silver. He swore that
when he returned the money the teller
pushed out another pile instead Of taking
the surplus IS.
The Chattanooga Savings bank is one Of
the three executors of the Whiteside es-
tate and the testimony of its officers was
strongly in favor of sustaining the will.
Judge Allison issued attachments for the
bank officials. Assistant Cashier Hardin
and Teller Gibbs. The latter appeared in
court, but were discharged after examina-
ton.
Mrs. Whiteside whose will is being con-
tested, was a Christian Scientist, and the
contestants, three of her sons and one
daughter, are trying to break the will on
the ground that their mother was men,
