On one seat Of the car sat d young
man who was smoking peculiarly
rank and pungent cigar On the seat
behind him sat an old gentleman and
lady, who had chosen to ride there
rather than stand up in the next car,
which was crowded.
They endured the smoke patiently
for time, feeling that the smoker
had the fright OF way" but at last
the old gentleman leaned forward and
said:
Il beg your pardon, young man. but
would you mind telling me what kind
Of cigar that is?"
"It's Porto Rico" was the reply.
Il couldn't quite catch the name,
explained the elderly man, turning to
his wife. but he says it's some kind
of 'reeker,' and he's quite right

Speaking Pictures.

An apparently simple idea upon
which recent inventors have toiled is
that Of moving pictures that can speak.
The words and other sounds are easily
recorded by the photograph, and NOV
ing objects are pictured BY the cinemat-
ograph. but 1t has seemed well-nigh i'm
possible to make the two kinds of appa-
ratus perform their work in exactly the
same time. 1t Is claimed that the diff
Guilty is at last overcome by the "chrono-
phone of Gaumont and Decaux, two
French inventors. The cinematograph
needs considerable power, while the
monograph requires uniform speed,
but perfect synchronism has been Sc
cured by operating the moving picture
machine by a motor receiving electric
current through the ,phonograph shaft
and automatically regulated by the turns
of the latter. Edison's early dream Of
mechanical reproductions of operas and
nlays seems destined to be realized.

Seven Of Whom Are lniured-A Model OF

Budapest (By Cable) Hoping to at
tract the sympathy of the populace, the
members of the opposition in the House
of Deputies met at their club, headed by
Count Apponyi, former Premier Banffy
Francis Kossuth, Count Itchy and other
leaders, marched in procession in a
drizzling rain to the Parliament Build
ing. The public, however, displayed
scant interest, and only few idlers
cheered them.
AT the entrance they found the police
commissioner, who requested them to
enter singly. He was roughly thrust
aside and maltreated, while the process

swarrned into the chamber over the gor-
geous carpeting, and advanced 10 the
guards of the presidents tribune, con-
sisting of 40 men, with roar OF execra-
ton, and ordered them to quit the
chamber.
Acting on instructions, the guards re-
manned mute, but imnoyable, which SO
incensed the opposition deputies that
they boxed the cars and spat in the
faces of the guards, who conducted
themselves with the greatest passivity
and forbearance until compelled to act
in self-defense.
The deputies fought their way to the
platform, tore it to pieces, scattered the
debris over the house, tore to atoms the
codes of law on the presidents table,
smashed the tables and chairs, and de-
stroyed the platform and distributed the
broken pieces among the deputies, who
thus armed attacked the guards, and
after brief fight drove them from the
house. The desks were then torn down
and the interior of the house was almost
completely wrecked. None of the Lib
eral members venturcd inside the house,
and the opposition members, after COM
pleting the ruin, established themselves
on the site erstwhile occupied by the
presidential rostrunl.
Seven of the guards were injured in
the scrimmage before they fed from the
chamber.
Having piled the debris in the middle
of the chamber the rioters crowned their
work of destruction by erecting model
of gallows from broken benches, from
which an effigy of Premier Tisza was
hanged, the deputies standing around
amidst the wreckage, smoking cigarettes
or pipes, while crowd of reporters,
with cameras, were busy securing pic
lures of the memorable scene.
Soon afterward Premier Tisza, with
other members of the Hungarian min
istry, appeared in the chamber and were
greeted with deafening shouts and abuse,
"scoundrel" and "rogue" being the mild
est terms employed.

FAMILY MURDERED; HOME BURNED.
A Mysterious Quadruple Tragedy Ia South
Carolina.

Columbia, S. c.. (SpeciaD. = B. B.
Hughes, aged AZ years, his wife, Eva,
about the same age, and two daughters
emily and Hattie), 10 and IS years
old, respectively, constituting an entire
family, are dead at Trenton, Edgeheld
county, and nothing remains to explain
the mystery of the tragedy.
Citizens of the town were aroused at
5 o'clock in the morning by a fire at the
Hughes house, and upon reaching the
scene the flames had gained such head
way that it was impossible to enter the
burning building, and not until the fire
had burned itself out and the walls had
collapsed was it discovered that the
family was dead.
The bodies of the two girls were found
in their bed with the heads of both
crushed in. The body OF Mrs. Hughes
was in room across the hall. Her
head also was crushed and pillow lay
over it, while the body of Hughes lay
near the door with bullet wound
through the left temple. A pistol with
one empty chamber lay near his right
hand.
Hughes was a merchant and farmer,
and was supposed to be prosperous.
There is no reason known why he
should have been murdered, as he was
on good terms with the white and col
ored people of the community. The
conditions surrounding the crime all
point strongly to Hughes as the murder
err of his entire family and TO suisse
ouent suicide.

LIVE WASHINGTON AFFAIRS.
Postal Conspiracy Verdict Affirmed.

The District of Columbia Court of
Appeals affirmed the decision of the
Criminal Court in the postal conspiracy
cases of August w. Machen, George f.
Lorenz, Samuel A. Croft and Diller b.
Croft, who were sentenced to two years
Imprisonment in the West Virginia Pen
itentiary and to pay fine of $4,000.
The Court of Appeals announced that,
after considering every point made by
counsel, no error had been found in the
proceedings in the trial for which the
judgment ought to be reversed. AS to
Samuel A. Croft, of this city, one OF the
defendants, the court said that the cir
cumstances tending to show his connec-
ton with the conspiracy are neither SO
numerous nor SO strong as those which
tended to show the participation of Dill
.ler B. Croft, his brother; but the court
added I'VE cannot say that they were
insufficient to warrant the submission of
the question of his guilt to the jury"
The opinion called attention to re-
marks of special counsel for the gov
eminent, in which the latter had said
that the only juror who hung out in the
star-route trials subsequently was in
dicted for bribery, and stated that if the
lower court had not interrupted this
line of argument as it had done the
case would have been reversed.
1t is probable that the counsel for the
defense in the postal cases will now
seek to carry the cases to the Supreme
Court of the United States.

5. T., with cargo of either salt or coal,
stranded at IL o'clock P. M. at Pea Is

miles north Of Cape Hatteras, during a
heavy northern gale.
Within 20 minutes after the vessel
stranded she was full of water and
awash, SO that the crew, consisting of
Captain Booye and six men, were forced
to take to the rigging, where they re
NAMED until o'clock P. NJ, when six
OF the seven men were rescued by crews
OF Pea Island, New Inlet and Bodies Is

One man, Henry Edwards, was frozen
to death and was lashed in the rigging
in such manner that he could not be
reached. His body is still aboard the
ship, hanging in the rigging, head down
ward One other member of the. crew
was almost frozen to death by exposure
and exhaustion when he was rescued by
the members of the life-saving crews,
but probably will recover, although his
condition is serious. The rescued crew
are now at the Pea Island Life Saving
Station.
Great difficulty was experienced in
landing the crew, owing to the fact that
the vessel had sunk and heavy sea
was running at the time. The freezing
weather hampered the work of rescue,
and the seamen were SO overcome by ex-
posture and exhaustion that only two Of
those in the rigging were able to assist
in hauling the whip line aboard the YES
sci.
Again and again the line was shot out,
and one by one the men were taken off
the ship in the breeches buoy, after a
narrowing experience of more than 10
hours spent in the rigging of the sinking
vessel in a temperature much below
freezing. Their clothing was coated
with thick layers of ice
