SHE SLEPT FOR TWENTY YEARS.
Marguerite BoyveneaI Awakes From
Odd Cataleptc State.

Paris June 6.-Marguerite Boyveneal.
of TheIles, near San Quintin. who had
been in cataleptic state since May p,
1888, awakened Wednesday.
For some time past she had been suffer
ing from phtysis. and it is believed that
the effect of this malady on her system
conduced to her re-awakening.
She moved her hand on Saturday for
the first time and groaned slightly. When
Dr. Charter took hold of her arm she
said: You are pinching me-" and sub
sequently replied to questions by yes
and no" She was however, in a state
of great weakness and gradually sank,
dying the day after awakening.
Marguerite BoyvenaTs lethargy was
caused by fright. She had had a child,
which died shortly after its birth under
circumstances which led to the opening
of an investigation. One day in May, in
1889. while Marguerite was ironing, a
neighbor said to her:
The gen d'armes are coming to ar
rest you" Marguerite had a series Of hts
and gradually fell into her long slumber.
In 1896. the girl was described as being
white as a statue and corpse-like as a
mummy. her body wasted away 70 almost
a skeleton and her bones seemed to be
covered with parchment instead of skin.
The body was rigid and only the pulse
beats showed that she was alive. Life
was sustained by washing her body in
milk every day and pouring few drops
of milk or spirits into the sleeper's mouth
through a reed. Many prominent physi-
clans visited the patient during her
twenty wears sleep.

BABY OFFERED
As SACRIFICE
Russian Father a Murderer
Through Superstition
GOD APPEARED TO HIM
So He Thought and Demanded
Thank Offering
GOD APPEARED TO HIM

Vienna, June "a striking illustration
of the ignorance and superstition from
which spring the present Russian horrors
is found in the case of a man named
Aslamakow, a villaSer of Vaiandur. Some
time ago this man was taken seriously i'll.
and in spite of all remedies failed to get
better.
One night he dreamed that God appear
ed to him and promised his restoration
to health on condition that as soon as
he was well he would sacrifice his infant
son as a thank offering for his recovery.
In his dream he promised 10 do this, and
shortly afterward became quite well.
On the Sunday following his full re-
covery he brought his child to the vesper
service. laid him upon the altar and cut
the throat of the little one in full view
of the church full of worshippers.
The inhabitants of the village express
surprise that so holy" a man as Aslam-
akow should be put into prison for obey
ing the orders OF the Almighty"

LIVING TR|LBY
FROM RUSSIA
Married ScoundreI, Who Fore
ed Her Nearly to Die
TOLD HER SHE MUST
Ruined Her Health to Get
Her Money
TOLD HER SHE MUST

Paris, June 6.-The Russian Ambassa
dor has asked for the arrest and the
transportation to Russia of George Remy,
who appears TO be an insurance swim
dIer on a new plan. Six months ago he
married an heiress in LODI, with whom
he Travelled all over Europe until few
weeks ago, when the girl came home
broken in health and half dead from a
mysterious mental disorder, which seem
ed TO sap her strength.
After consulting many physicians with
out avail, hypnotism was resorted to,
and the unhappy bride confessed that a
few DAYS after her marrieg Remy insured
her for slO0O 900 in an American company,
STIMULATING that the suicide clause be
waived, even if the insured committed
suicide within the first year of the pol
fcy's life.
Having thus assured himself of an in
come. the scoundrel hypnotized the new
TriIby, suggesting that she must die to
please him by September !. And he also
threatened that if she did not die by
then he would drive her to her death by
some new tangled fortunes described in
a bIood-curdling manner These threats
and the fear Of death made a nervous
wreck out of the previously healthy and
beautiful girl and even now she doesn't
know how she gathered up courage
enough to run away and go back to her

CONGRESS OF SOCIALISTS.
Beinq Held at ChaIons and Attended
by French Youth.

Paris. June 6.-At present there is being
held at ChaIons an unprecedented con-
gress. 1t is composed of the representa-
tive Catholic youth of France and is
under the presidency of Cardinal Perraud
1t is in brief Catholic Congress of So
cialism-the first one ever held Equally
noteworthy is it TO find Cardinal who is
at the same time one of the Forty I'M
mortals presiding over its sessions.
Cardinal Perraud thinks that the work
men who follow Mnlerand and Jaures
are led TO unbelief. His Eminence, so
far from attacking Socialism, simply up
holds il and sounds a bugle blast TO recall
the men of toll TO Christian Socialism.
Thus Socialism is gaining apostles from
the most unexpected sources, and the
Cardinal Academician and the black
handed typesetter at Chalons are equally
intense in its favor.
At this congress no one has made an
effort to attack the socialistic teachings of
Millerand and Jaures. Rather would this
significant gathering uphold and Chris
tianize them.
Count de Nun has preached Christian
Socialism. But few listened to him. and
he had no council or cardinal or congress
to back him up. If Socialism can find
apostles among men so widely apart as
Jaures and Cardinal Perraue, then il is
apparent its cause is won in France.

BOY KILLS HIMSELF.
Thunder Storm Grove Him to Self De-
struction

London. June 6.-The strange suicide CT
Russell Sturgeon. aged fourteen. a stu
dent at Dulwich College. has just been
investigated by the Lambeth coroner.
A thunder storm caused the boy to re-
turn to his home in Carson Road. West
Dulwich. earlier than usual on Saturday
afternoon.
He went upstairs. with cheerful re-
mark TO the cook took d bottle of carbolic
acid from the bathroom, locked himself in
his room and poisoned himself
When the lad did not appear in response
to the tea bell his door was found fas-
tened, the father climbed in at the win
dow and discovered him lying on the
bed.
The family doctor regarded the boy as
an eccentric genius. and it is his opinion
that the storm upset the balance of his
mind. This satisfied his father
He added that his son was a boy of
abnormal intellect. He won a scholar
ship at Dulwick College two years before,
and was the youngest pupil in his form.
He was not given to many boyish pur-
suits but was extremely fond of reading
abstruse matter and reasoning.
The jury returned a verdict of Suicide

that he had permitted the outbreak to go
too far, and that the barbarities of the
drunken robbers was inexcusable.
The car was deeply displeaseI with

Plehwe to remove all the officials of the
province. Won Plehwe urged that an in
quiry of the case be made and the car
agreed. He said he would send one of IS
own adjutants and Won Plehwe to in
uuire into the matter. Lopuchin returned
with wild report, which was too dark.
Won PIehwe revised it before its submits

Won Plehwe still retains possession OF

CREATION OF CARDINAL.
Pope Will Appoint Apostolic Delegate
at Berlin.

Rome June "a report has been made
public to the effect that the Pope at the
instance of the German Emperor. has de-
cided to appoint an Apostolic Delegate at
Berlin
This is hardly exact. During an inter-
view between Cardinal Rampolla and
Count Won Buslow, the former suggested
vaguely such an appointment but the sug-
gestion was not taken by the Count, who
said that the matter would require ma
ture elaboration. and that in any case
the present arrangement was satisfactory.

" supervised the Roman Catholic inter
ests in all Germany without exciting any
Protestant feeling
Cardinal Rampolla acquiesced. The APP
pointment, therefore. OF an Apostolic Del
egate is very improbable. but the creation
of a German Cardinal is certain.

It took the Partisan judges three minutes
to decide that the Viscount should pay.
1t was of no consequence that Nine.

ordered for her. AS Theobald Foy wrote
a letter ordering it. the court said scripta
