London, July 9.-Over 700 Danish and
Norwegian emigrants bound for New York
are believed to have been drowned in the
North Atlantic on June %. Out of nearly
800 souls on board the Danish steamer
Norge, which lett Copenhagen June 22,
only twenty-seven are known to be alive,
and for the rest no hope is held out.
When last seen the Norge WAS sinking
where she struck on the Islet Of Rockall,
whose isolated peak raises itself from a
deadly Atlantic reef some 290 miles OF
the west coast of Scotland.
Early on the morning of last Tuesday
the Norge, which was out Of her course in
heavy weather, ran on to the Rockall
rect. which in the distance looks like a
ship under full sail; The Norge was quick

in through a rent in her bows.
The emigrants who were then awaiting
breakfast below ran on deck. The hatch

The Norge quickly began to go down by
the head. Eight boats were lowered and
into these the women and children we're
hurriedly put. Six of these boats smashed
against the side of the Norge, and their
balnless inmates were caught up by the
heavy seas.
Two boat loads got safely away from

tracted a secret engagement and parted
with mutual promises to obtain their
respective sovereign's assent to the
match. The Grand Duke Peter re-
turned to st. Petersburg and formally
asked for the Cars permission to
propose for the hand Of the Princess
Militia of Montenegro, which was
readily given, for this love match ex-
actly suited the requirements OF Rus
sia's foreign policy. When the Grand
Duke arrived at Cettijne three weeks
later to ask Prince Nicholas for the
hand Of his eldest daughter, he found
the ground prepared and the course OF
true love ran with wonderful smooth
ness. The marriage was celebrated IN
ST. Petersburg within six months OF the
day on which the Grand Duke first
caught sight of his bride and the i'm
perial couple have lived happily ever
since. Grand Duchess Militia, who is
now the mother of d son and two
daughters, has been one of the most
popular members of the Russian I'M
perial family during all the 1ften years
of her married life.

Duchess Militia, which was celebrated
with much pomp in the presence or the

Princess Helene Of Montenegro was
destined to make still better match.
In the spring Of 1896 Crown Prince Vic
tor Emmanuel Of Italy visited Monte
negro for hunting expedition and was
the guest Of Prince Nicholas. When he
went out shooting he found, to his sur
prise, that he was accompanied not
only by Prince Nicholas and his two
elder sons, Crown Prince DaniIo and
Prince Mirko. but also by his daugh-
ter, Princess Helene, then a girl of %
years. Moreover, he found that at the
end Of the day Princess Helene had Sc
cured bigger bag than his own-a cir
cumstance that increased his admira-
ton for the royal amazon.
When he found that, notwithstanding
this proficiency in manly pastimes,
Princess Helene was gentle and domes-
ticated, a talented painter and a musi-
clan of real power, the Italian Crown
Prince fell in love with her and asked
Prince Nicholas for her hand within a
week Of his arrival in Montenegro.
Prince Nicholas naturally raised no OBJ
jections, the King OF Italy approved his
sons choice and the match was pro-
nounced satisfactory by Italian states
men, so that there were no obstacles.
and the wedding took place in Rome a
few months later. Four years later
Princess Helene became Queen Of Italy
through the assassination Of her father
in-law, King Humbert, by an anarch-
ist. Her marriage, too. has been ex-
tremely happy, only the birth of two
successive daughters instead Of the de-
sired son has been a disappointment to
the royal parents.

royal guests present was Prince Fran

WOMEN OF A SPANISH

Children Born of Two Mothers at the
Same Time and Place Get
Mixed

MADRID, Sept. 24.-The identity of
two babies which have been born in a
forest near Cabezon. small town in
Santander province, has to be settled
by a council of the families of both.
While the mothers were taking a
walk in the forest the children were
born-both being boys. number Of
women from neighboring village
who arrived on the scene took mothers
and babies home on stretchers.
Unfortunately the excited women
handed the infants from one to the
other and in the confusion that fol-.
lowed it became impossible to distin-
guish one child from the other.
BY way of temporary arrangement
each of the two mothers accepted a
baby without troubling herself as
to whether it was her own or not.

that the clock should be guaranteed

was adament. He had clock built

GHOST STORIES CAUSE
SHIVERS IN SOCIETY
Mysterious Visitors From Another
World Roam Through Country
Estate of Walter Winans.

LONDON, Sept. 24.-English So
ciety is thrilling itself with circum-
stantiaI accounts of ghostly and ghast-
Nv visitors to Surrender. the country
house of Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Winans.
Surrender is one of the most inter-
esting properties in England. The
black deer that roam through the
beautiful old park are unique, being
of a breed elsewhere extinct.
The interior Of the house is beau
tiful, filed with priceless treasures.
But some recent emotional visitors
say they will carry its gruesome as
sociations to their graves
A pretty English girl staying at the
house not long ago. on going upstairs
in evening dress after dinner. stopped
near one Of the landing windows to
look out on the park. Suddenly a
brilliant light iIlumined the drive and
to her horrer the figure Of a young
woman, all in flames, bearing a child
in her arms, appeared tearing down
the avenue. The girl nearly tainted
with fright and before she was able
to call assistance and have the facts
explained the phantom figure had dis

The second Surrender horror nap
pened on the same occasion, and
probably sprang from the excitement
caused by the accounts Of her fellow
visitors delusion. A lady of a highly
nervous temperament sleeping in one
of the fine bedrooms at the back Of
the house woke in terror about
o'clock in the morning. feeling as if
she were half strangled by a pair Of
sharp-clawed hands entwined around
her throat. At length she managed to
give one or two inarticulate cries,
which attracted the attention of her
maid, who flew to her aid. to find her
mistress half dead, lying across the
bed.
The lady left the next morning and
the bedroom has not been occupied
since then, although these visitauonS
probably are more directly attribut-
able to the richness Of Mr.. Winans'
cuisine than to any supernatural
cause.

'POSSUM HAS FUN WITH

MELBOURNE, Victoria, Sept. "a
Often political adversaries accuse each
other of playing 'possum, but rarely
do legislators of all parties amuse
themselves with a 'possum. Just this
occurred in the Victoria State Parlia-
ment a few evenings ago.
During dreary debate, large pos
sum, gray enough to be the Premier of
all the 'possums, scampered into the
chamber, ran to the chair of the SER
geant at arms, sprang into it and sat
there blinking at the electric lights.
Instantly the lawmakers cast dignity
to the winds and with boyish shouts
of joy joined in chasing the 'possum.
The Speaker, unmindful of his robes
and gravity. laughed heartily, but,
after a minute or two. shocked by his
own levity, he sprang to his feet and

The 'possum, like all his kind, was
elusive. Over and under benches went
the yelling members in pursuit of the
quarry. Chairs were overturned, pan
demonium reigned until at last an agile
labor member seized the 'possum's tail
and carried the animal off in triumph.
The Speaker returned, but so great
was the members merriment that he
could rot restore order and soon ad-
journed the sitting.

with an elderly lady as companion and
the Grand Duke turned round to fol-
low her at a discreet distance. Sud
denly he lost sight of the ladies and
though he searched the neighboring
streets diligently he could find no
trace of the fascinating stranger. He
returned to his hotel in despair and
dreamed that the fair stranger turned
out TO be a Princess in disguise, whom
he Immediately married.
On the following day he caught
sight of the unknown lady in the Bots
de Boulogne, but he was driving with
a friend and had no opportunity of
resuming the chase where he had in
terrupted it on the preceding day. A
day elapsed without his seeing the
girl who occupied his thoughts to the
exclusion of most other subjects, but
on the fourth day he espied her prom
enading on the boulevards, again with
the elderly lady at her side. The
Grand Duke determined not to lose
track of her this time and followed
the pair with unremitting vigilance.
They entered one of the most fashion
able hotels and the Grand Duke hur-
ried into the clerks Office to inquire
who they were. His establishment on
learning that the young lady was
Princess Militia of Montenegro and
the elderly companion her lady in
waiting, Madame de Voievitza, was
unbounded, for it seemed to him that
the first part of his dream had come
true in an almost miraculous manner.
He Immediately resolved that the con-
realized.

patched a courier with a note to Prin-
cess Militia, saying that having learned

waiting for an answer, the Grand Duke
donned his uniform and drove to the
hotel where Princess Militia was stay

his expectations and he incurred no
delay in making love to the charming

that she reciprocated his feelings.
