Bargain Sale Mobs.

Thousands of men, women and chill
dren seeking bargains at the new five
and ten cent store opened Saturday
in Philadelphia fought wildly to enter
the building, and in the rush which
followed every time the doors were
opened scores of weaker ones were
trampled beneath the feet of the more
robust bargain hunters.
The crowd in front of the store en-
trance blocked the street and stopped
the streetcars. Some bargain seekers
stood for hours with infants in their
arms fighting, scratching and scream
ing. They struggled fiercely to enter
the store. Women were trampled to
the pavement and babies were torn
from the arms of mothers The en-
tire police force was summoned and
ambulances from Jefferson, Penna and
Hahneman hospitals fastened to the
scene to carry off the injured.
For half an hour there was also an
immovable jam inside the stores. In
the rear of the store a temporary
medical ward was organized to care
for women who tainted.

st. Louis, April 16.-As the pastor
of st. James Episcopal church, Rev.
r. M. Duckworth. was delivering his
Palm Sunday sermon to large con
gregation, there was a report of a
pistol shot from the tower of the
church. The explosion startled the au-
dience and caused the preacher to
stop speaking for a moment.
After the closing hymn and benedic-
ton it was announced that the sexton
OF the church, Captain James Rider,
had committed suicide in the tower
room of the church and that his body
was lying overhead. After a prayer
for the departed soul the congregation
was dismissed.
Captain Riders death, DR.. Duck

shame over his besetting vice, intern
perance, an infirmity that had driven
him from high state of life, that of
a wealthy. refined and esteemed Brit
ish shipowner. and public lecturer. to
the life of travelling actor and finally
to be a church sexton.

JOKE RoHs WIFE OF REASON.
Sad Sequel to silly Trick Perpetrated
by Edmond LeIouse.


A sad sequel was the result of a
silly joke perpetrated recently in
Paris. M. Edmond Lelouse, wishing
to brighten his wife, dressed up a wax
figure the head of which and one of
the hands he lightly attached to the
body by means OF gum, and placed it
in bed.
While Lelouse was watching the
proceedings from behind some dra-
peries his wife, about to retire, grasp
ed what she supposed, in the semi
darkness, sto be her husbands hand,
but which was in reality that of the
wax figure. The hand, cold and clam
my, detached itself from the limb and
remained in her grasp. -
With a cry of horror Madame La
louise let the hand drop to the ground
and flung her arms around the figures
neck, when the head also became de-
tached and rolled down upon the floor.
The terror stricken woman, uttering
piercing shrieks, ran madly down the
stairs, where she was stopped by some
neighbors and detained.
When the police arrived it was
found that she had become raving
mad. Later she was conveyed to the
asylum.
When the husband was apprised
yesterday morning of the hopelessness
of his wife's condition, he poisoned
himself by swallowing a dose of nitric
acid

Report That Hill and Morgan Caught
and Punched Hartman.
The retirement of E. H. Hartman
from the Northern Securities board of
directors was authoritatively explain.
ed recently by a Chicago banker, who
is high in the confidence of eastern
financiers. The statement by the Chi
cago banker is to the effect that early
last week Hartman sold to ]. Pier
pont Morgan and James ]. Hill $780,
OOO,O 900 par value of Northern Secu-
rites stock at $175 a share and dis
posed of all his personal interests
in that big railroad combination. His
personal interest is aside, of course,
from the Union Pacifcs interest in
Northern Securities.
If these reports of Harriman's sale
of his Securities stock and his losing
control of the Union Pacific be true, it
looks like grand victory for the Hill
Morgan party in the battlefield of rail
road finance, a victory to which the
Equitable scandal contributed prob
ably not a little.

was being harried by the Equitable,
and did he start fight on Hyde to
smoke Hartman out? There are peo-
pie who are usually very we'll inform

believe that Morgan executed just

PAUL JONES' REMAINS.
Ambassador Porter Found Them ir
paris

Paris.
Paris.-The remarkable search that
Ambassador Porter has conducted for
the body of Paul Jones has been
crowned with success by the discov-
cry of the body and its Identification
by the highest French medical ex-
perts as PROFESSIONALLY that Of the
famous American admiral who found
ed the American navy.
The state department at Washing
ton has made public the cablegram re-
ceived from Ambassador Porter at
Paris, in which he announced that the
body of John Paul Jones had been
found. The cablegram described the
finding Of the casket and the identifi-
cation of the body. The cablegram
fully bears out the Paris dispatches
of the Associated Press.
Upon receipt of Mr.. Porter's dis
patch, Acting Secretary Loomis cabled
an acknowledgment and took occasion
to congratulate Mr.. Porter on the
success of what appeared to be a
dubious task. 1t is learned here that
the ambassador has already expended
$500 of his money in this long quest.
1t is fully expected that congress will
reimburse him. Mr.. Loomis stated
that there was no doubt that the re-
mains will be conveyed to America on
a warship, but it could not yet be told
whether this would be a French or
American man of war.
Proof Seems Positive.
DR.. Papillault, the anthropologist,
in an interview at Paris explains the
methods pursued to identify the body
found in the old ST. Louis cemetery
after long search made by Ambas-
sador Porter. He says an examina-
ton was made Of the teeth, hair nose
and ears and they all correspond with
precision to the known
and characteristics of
the admiral's organs. The formation
Of the frontal bone, the slope of the
nasal bone, the cartilages and ears
likewise correspond precisely with the |
hCdouiSul Ol MOuulU DUST MADE |
from the life masks. The measure
ments of the height and diameter of |
the skull correspond within a thou
iandth part of a meter, thus estab-
ishing a remarkably exact correspon-
lence.
The doctor said his report makes
he usual reservation covering posi-
Die doubts, although he believes he
