OF the estate of their uncle. Peter A.
Hallenbeck, whom they murdered year
ago last Christmas. AS they stand a

which they slew their uncle may yet be
used to procure them their freedom.

10000 CARTRIDGES
TO SHOOT ROBBERS
Hermit of GraveSend Beach Has
Them Under His Bed.

NEW YORK, July 1s.-Dennis Gala
han. the hermit OF Gravesend Beach.
lives in hut at the foot of Bay Forty
fourth Street. He is a veteran OF the
civil war In his hut are 10000 rounds
of big ball cartridges besides a large
quantity of powder. and buried in the
sand outside the place are barrels OF
naphtha and other explosives.
Callahan sat on the roof of the hut
for several hours last night with a
shotgun in his hand and many rounds OF
ammunition at his side. He eyed every
object along the beach suspiciously and
several times he raised the gun and
took aim. He did not lower the rifle
until persons he thought suspicious
had gone out Of sight. On Tuesday night
he shot at two men in rowboat who,
he believed. were trying to rob yachts
at anchor in Grayesend Bay, but the
bullets went wild and the men got away
in the darkness.
Ever since the beginning OF the yacht
ing season craft in the bay have been
visited by thieves. Callahan looks after
many yachts. Three weeks ago thieves
broke into the house in Callahan's alb
sence and stole his watch and chain and
a new suit of clothes. A few nights later
the place was again visited by thieves
and other property taken He reported
his loss TO the Bath Beach police, but
the following day his house was again
broken into. This aroused his wrath
and he determined TO find some means
to punish the thieves.
The ammunition had been stored away
in great iron chest and buried in the
sand ever since the civil war Callahan
examined all the cartridges and. finding
them in good condition. placed them un-
der his bed.
Callahan is about sixty years old and
scarcely more than four feet tall He
earns a living by building and repairing
boats, and is known TO almost every
yachtsman who sails in Grayesend Bay.

WOMAN RTE ALIVE.


A letter received in Paris from
Buenos Ayres records the death of
Mile. Cambaceres, a descendant of the
famous French general and a member
of one of the leading families in the
Argentine capital, under most dis
tressing circumstances. says a Paris
correspondent OF the New York Her.
aid.
The unfortunate young lady had just
turned IS years of age, and her birth
day was celebrated by a grand recep-
ton. All her friends came to offer
their congratulations and brought
presents.
In the evening Mile. Cambaceres
went up TO her room TO dress for the
opera. She was in the act of putting
on her hat, when she fell to the
ground, apparently dead.
The funeral took place within "a
hours, as under municipal law a corpse
must not be kept longer, on account
Of the heat and the danger Of decom-
position.
Afew days afterward someone start
ed the theory that Mile. Cambaceres
had been poisoned, and the authorities
ordered the body to be disinterred and
a post-mortem examination made.
When the coffin was opened it was
found, TO the horror Of every one, that
the veil which covered the face of the
unfortunate girl was tori and her face
scratched all over. From these facts
il appeared clear that Mile. Cambac-
eres had been buried alive and had
torn the veil and scratched her face in
her struggle to get out of the coffin.
The case, though not reported in
the press. has produced a most painful
impression in Buenos Ayres, the more
so as Mile. Cambaceres was very pretty
and beloved by all who knew her.

truth. l at times kept from coughing
myself to pieces by taking a teaspoon
full of this remedy, and when the cough
ing spell would come on at night |
would take a dose and 1t seemed that
in the briefest interval the cough
would pass off and | would go to sleep
perfectly free from cough and it's ac-
%companying pains. To say that the
remedy acted as a most agreeable sur
prise is putting it very mildly. | had
no idea that it would or could knock
out the grip, simply because l had
never tried it for such a purpose, but it
did, and it seemed with the second at
tack of coughing the remedy caused it
to not only be Of less duration, but the
pains were far less severe, and | had
not used the contents of one bottle be-
fore Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu." For

eclipse of the sun on March 2S, which
will be visible in Central Asia and
Siberia and Alaska. AS the shadow of
the moo does not reach the earth, the
corona and other appendages usually
seen about the sun will not be visible
to astronomers, and no preparation is
being made to observe the eclipse. The
total eclipse of the sun of September
20 will be visible in the Indian ocean
and on the antarctic continent, but as
little land is touched by the shadow
of the moon and that is inaccessible to
observers. no observation wln he made
by the several governments which U.S.
usalIy participate in such scientific en-
terprises, says the Washington Post.
A partial eclipse of the moor will oc-
cur on April IL, visible generally in
Europe. Asia and Africa. The end of
the eclipse will be visible in the east
ern part of the United States. On DC.
tober 6, another partial eclipse will be
visible in Asia, parts of Europe, Africa
and the Pacific ocean.
The most notable event of the year
will be the opposition of Mars, which
occurs March 2S. On April l the dis
lance of Mars will be a minimum, be-
ing then only So 900 900 miles. The op.
position is so circumstanced, however,
that astronomers will nave some favor
able conditions for studying Martiam
problems. The northern polar cap will
be visible, and doubtless many obser-
vations of it will be made by numerous
native observers. The satellites of
Mars, discovered by Professor Hall at
the naval observatory, will probably
be beyond the reach of that telescope
in the present position of the planet,
but they may be visible to the more
powerful telescopes Of the Lick observ-
atory. 1t is not known what observa-
tions of Mars, If any are contemplated
at the naval observatory. Many prob
lens are now studied by astronomers
with large telescopes, of which the
measurement of satellites is one. Other
lines of study relate to the diameter
of the planet by night and by daylight,
and drawings of the numerous mark
ings noted upon the surface of our sis.
ter planet.
