An Englishman who had obviously
been dining rather we'll than wisely
walked up to the police station In the
Place de ropera In Paris the other
night and sent the officials into roars
Of laughter.
He could not speak French. so. to
explain that his watch and money
had been stolen, he solemnly took OF
his overcoat and coat and showed
that his waistcoat contained none Of
his valuables.
The police were attracted by this
waistcoat. which was white, and had
border three inches deep. Exam
lining It, they found that he was wear.
Ing 1t Inside out and that his watch
and chain were in their proper places
The Englishman went out into the
night In q state Of complete mystifl.
cation. His state prevented him from
understanding how the police had
found his belongings. and he over.
wbelmed them with compliments they
could not understand.

an operation was decided upon, and
was performed by DR.. Bull. The pa
tent rallied SO well that it was fully
believed he would recover.
Septicaemia was the immediate
cause of death. A semi-official &C.
count of his East hours is to the ef-
feet that the toxin which produced
peritonitis following the operation for
appendicitis gradually spread through
the tissues Of the body until it reach
ed the brain cells, when there was
paralysis and death.
The physicians had concluded to
open the superficial wound and exam,
inc the area from which the pus was
absorbed by the drain inserted after
the operation. 1t was impossible to
make this examination without putting
the patient under the influence of an
anaesthetic on account of the great
pain. Ether was administered, the
wound was opened and the lower part
examined. Before the examination
was concluded it was noticed that Mr..
Whitney was sinking. The administra-
ton of ether was Immediately stop.
ped, but before it's effects could wear
off he was dead.
Payne Whitney, the second son of
his wife, daughter OF Secretary of
State Hay, arrived from Georgia few
hours two late.
Mrs. Almech Hughes Paget, the ell
der daughter, who has been living for
several years in London, is reported
to have sailed, and it Is said the fami-
ly will. If possible, delay the funeral
until she arrives
Much interest is attached to the eff
feet OF Mr.. Whitney's death upon turf
interests, which were to have been
wider the coming season than ever.

New York, Feb. 3.-With the burial
in Cypress Hill cemetery of Private
Frank Smith, OF the Ninety-eighth bat
terry, U. s. A, there has been revealed
a strange story of his death Monday
in the Fort Hamilton military reser-
walton. Smiths comrades declare that
he put an end to his life because he
was ordered to do duty by major
general when he was sick and unfit to
work. The officers decline to discuss
the case. Smiths death, it is alleg-
ed, has brought to light cases of Ill
treatment of sick soldiers at the res.
ervation and an investigation is being
conducted by a board of inquiry.
