"DON QUIIOTE'
special pispateh TO rhe call.

LONDON. May 10.-From Spain
comes the story of a quaint little liter
ary discussion which the Spanish Gov
ernment has been having with 900 con-
victs at Ocana. 1t has all been apropos
of the celebration in Spain of the ter
centenary of Cervantes. the author of
Don Quixote." The 900 convicts, who
are inmates of the house of detention
AT Ocana, evidently know their Don
Quixote by heart for they recently
suggested to the Government that it
would be an appropriate act of Glenn
ency to mark the tercentenary by Civ
ing them their freedom, and quoted a
passage from Cervantes' masterpiece
in support of their argument This
passage was that which relates how
the Don himself delivered a number of
galley-slaves from custody because. as
he remarked to Sancho Panza, lit
seemed to him an act of cruelty to en-
slave those whom God and nature had
made free, and he did not think it right
that honorable men should be- the ex-
ecutioners Of their fellow creatures
But if the convicts showed them
selves well UP in their "Quixote," the
authorities proved themselves not less
familiar with the romance. They de-
MED the ingenious request and called
the petitioners attention to the sequel
Of the story, which relates that the
convicts had no sooner got their liberty
than they turned upon their benefactor
and, to his great astonishment, robbed
him of all his valuableS

WHERE ALFRED is BURIEp.

Americans are to be afforded an op-
portunity to contribute to a fund be-
ing raised for the preservation and ex-
cavation of the site of the ancient
Hyde Abbey, where the bones Of Alfred
the Great were inferred. The property
has recently been acquired by the city
Of Winchester, and committee, which
includes the Marquis or Winchester,
has been formed to push forward a
work which, ii is expected, will bring
to light many precious relics Of the lat
ter Saxon period.
The abbey owed its foundation to
Alfred. He purchased the site with
the intention Of erecting monastery
there, but death overlook him before
he had time to carry out the work, and
it was left to his SON, Edward the
Elder, to fulfill his wish. Shortly after
the conservation of the church Alfred
remains, which had been given a tenn
porary resting place at the old church
of st. Swithin, were buried there. Soon
afterward the body of his wife, Queen
Aelswith, was inferred there. His two
sons were also buried there and in sub
sequent years several members of the
Saxon royal house.
In 1109 the site Of the abbey was
changed and most of the royal bones
were transferred TO the new ediffce.
After that the old abbey had a check
cred career. 1t was finally DESTROYED
by King Henry VIII, and over the old
foundations the county authorities
erected Jail in 1888. Now it is pro-
posed to restore these foundations in
as perfect way as possible.
Readers of Scott's Quentin Dur
ward" will remember that the scene is
laid chiefly in Liege, Brussels, where

their national independence. Now it is
announced that one of the most inter
esting features of the exhibition will be
reproduction of the old town as IL
existed at the time described in the
novel,
At East Dereham, where the poet
Cowper spent his last days, the one

where his remains rest. The center

The steamer Tartar, which arrived at
Victoris, B. c., Saturday night from the
Orient, brought news from Shanghai that
the loss of life among the natives OF the
island at the mouth of the Yangtze river
as result ofthe typhoon at the beginning
of September was tremendous. The
North China Daily News, Of Shanghai,
saws: "To the east OF Tsmsgming two
islands. one named Yawoshwa, and the
Shihious' a, dis ant about20 miles from
Woosung, have suffered much from the
tyohoou, nearly all the Inhabitants hay
ing been swept away. The islands have
been inhabited for only short time, COM
paratively sneaking, as they are of recent
formation and are not much above high
water mark. 1t is reported that nearly
10. 900 persons have been drowned on
these two islands and the smaller islands
adjacent. Tamagming itself has not suf-
fered much, being well above the high
water mark" The Shanghai psreri
say that the damage to the Canadian Pa
ciffc Railroad liner Empress of Japan by
the typhoon will necessitate the expendi
ture of 800, 900 for repairs. During
the storm the steamer Pechill, formerly
the Rio &c Grande du Sol, founderec

Crime of Army Pensioner.

A terrible, and, as yet, inexplicable,
tragedy was discovered in the village OF
Amesbury, near Salisbury, England,
early on Saturday morning. Peer
Head, an army pensioner, murdered his
six children in a lane at the back OF the
local workhouse, and then commit d
suicide. Head was formerly battery
sergeant-maor in the Royal Garrison
artillery, and for sometime past be had
been augmenting his pension Of q. Sd.
day by acting as an insurance agent,
his principal clients being soldiers In
Buford Camp. His books were in order
and he was passiOnately fond of his chill
dren, and the news of the crime was,
consequently, scarcely crt dited by those
who knew him. The only possible ex-
planation for the crime is that financial
losses ON a poultry farm at Picket Twen-
ty, near Andover, and the burden of SUP
porting his mother, in addition to his
wife and large family, preyed upon his
mind.
On Friday morning he bought razor
at barber's shop, and at 8 O'Clock in the
afternoon called at the village school for
his children and went home with them.
He then told his wife that he wanted to
take them all for walk. He picked up
his nine-months-old baby boy, and with
five other children, whose ages ranged
from 3 to 10 years, left the house. de
would have taken his eldest girl, Elsie,
but her mother wanted her to 60 on an
errand, and to this fortunate circum-
stance she probably owes her life. Mrs
Head prepared tea at the usual time
AS her husband and the children did moi
return when darkness had set IN, she
became alarmed and informed the police.
Shortly after midnight Police Con-
stable Wells was walking along the lane,
when he saw the dead bodies OF the mar
and the children lying behind two bean
ricks. Their tbrosts had been cut with

Charged With Triple Murder.

By the arrest yesterday OF Alauzon
Graham, on information furnished by
Mrs. Ingerick, the authorities believe
that the mystery of the triple murder at
the Olney farm, near Middletowu, N. T.,
on Friday will soon be cleared.up. Gra-
ham, who is 65 years ofage and lives
alone within a mile and balfOf the Ol-
ney place, was lodged in Jail. A search
of his house revealed evidence that ap-
pears TO clearly connect him with the
crime.
Mrs. Ingerick, who was found fearful
" injured and insensibe in the Olney
barn, recovered consciousness yesterday
morning sufficiently TO understand ques-
tlons addressed to her by District At
torney Rogers. She was hardly able
to speak, but replied to injuries by ned
ding and shaking her head. Precisely
what information was elected from her
has not been made public, but immedia-
tely after the examination County D
tective Wood and Chief of Police Brink
erhof FASTENED to Graham's house and
arrested him.
Later. when a thorough search was
made of the place, the detectives found
hloodspots on the floor and a pair of over
alIs spotted with blood in the kitchen
Graham took his arrest coolly and de-
clined to make any statement.
Mrs. Ingerick was formerly employed
as housekeeper by Graham and lett
there about two months ago to go to the
Olney brothers. Graham, who is said
to have been jealous of Mrs Iugeriek, is
known to have made several visits to the
Olney place within the past two weeks,
apparently for the purpose OF persuad-
ing the woman to return to him.
Additional information tending to con-
meet Graham with the crime was given
to the District Attorney yesterday by
Lulu IDgerick, the 19-year-old sister OF
the murdered girl, who was the first to
discover the tragedy. Lulu said that
Graham frequently threatened TO strike
her mott er when she was employed by
him. She also described him rs man
of a violent and cruel disposition, and
as an illustration told bow he had killed
several cats by driving chisels through
their bodies and cutting of their heads.
He appesred, she said, to have pariicu-
lar dislike of her little sister, the MUIR
deredg girl. =.
Graham was later released, no evil
dence being adduced against him.
