VIENNA. March 25.-A mysterious
vessel which has been cuising about
in the Northern Adratic has caused
great excitement among the peasant
population of the coast. She was first
noticed at night near Fiume by the
steamer Godello which threw a search
light upon her, as she did not answer
to signals.
A curious sight was revealed. 1t was
seen that she was built like yacht,
was long, lay low in the water, and
was painted black and on the decks
were a crowd of men and women in
fantastic attire feasting. She bore no
name and carried no flag. The next
evening the vessel which has been
chrlstened by the coast population the
Flying Dutchman," was seen off Abb
bazia. Festivities were again proceed
ing to the sound of music, but when
the boats were put off from the short
to examine her more closely she dis
appeared in the darkness.
A nSnernldn WHO has SuCCeeuSu III
boarding the vessel to sell fish tells a
strange story according to the Wiener
Mittags Zeitung. He states that there
were many young girls on board be-
longing apparently to the peasant
classs, although they were richly
dressed. A girl who has returned to
her home at Buccari, in Croatia, after
having been missed for a fortnight,
declares that she was persuaded to go
to the vessel to sell vegetables. for some
sailors and that as soon as she was
aboard the vessel got under way and
she had to remain.
One day when the ship was off Buc-
carl she asked to be allowed to go home
and was thereupon given some gold
pieces and put ashore. The fishermen
are in state of great excitement and
declare they will blow UP the mysteri-
Gus craft on the first opportunity.

BY Associated prsso.

BY Associated Presa.
WASHINGTON, March 25.--President
Roosevelt presented diplomas today to
the class graduated from the United
states medical school at exercises held
In the hall of the National museum.
The president was introduced by
Medical Director r. A. Marmlon, pres
ident Of the faculty of the naval medl-
cal school. The family doctor was
euloglzed by the president in his re-
marks as one for whom everybody en-
couraged the greatest intimacy and af-
fection. The duties Of the naval doc
tors, he said, enabled them to be Of
advantage to their "stay-at-home'
brothers in the opportunity they have
for the study of tropical disease. The
absence of proper utensils with which
to work was mentioned by the presi-
dent as an inconvenience that will Of
ten hamper them in their work.
you have a double standard Of honor
to uphold" said the president, that Of
doctor and that Of an officer of the
navy" Continuing, he said the re-
sponsibilities that rest upon the naval
doctor admit of nothing but the hard
est kind of work in time of war. He
said he was not competent to talk Of
their professional duties, but that he
wanted to repeat that IL war comes.
1t was almost certain to find the medi-
cal profession unprepared and this
would entail greater trials to those at
the front.
DO your best If you have nothing
but a jackknife to do 1t with" he
admonished. He said that it would not
do to wait for proper materials as Of
ten times only makeshifts were at
hand. He said he himself had seen
such conditions at San Juan hill. 1t
would be foolish to shrek at the per-
son in charge Of the government If war
should come and the nation be found
not ready, continued the president. and
he asked everyone to reflect that 1t
would be really lack of forethought
of the national legislature that was to
blame. He added that, whatever the
unpreparedness, the doctors themselves
could do much by self preparation TO
make the irregular work tell.

MAGNIFICENT ORCHIDS
EXHIBITED IN LONDON
One Bank Alone Covers Five Hundred
Feet and Has Over Ten
Thousand Flowers
Special Cable to The Herald.

Special Cable to The Herald.
LONDON, March 25.-Among the
many orchids exhibited at the Royal
horticultural society's show this week
was the Cypripedium Chamberlainium'
a comparatively rare variety, in con-
nection with which there is an inter-
esting story.
About ten years ago plant without
flowers was sent to England by col
lector, who casied it after Mr.. Cham
berlain.
The significance Of the name was
seen when it blossomed. for its two
petals were shaped like perfect screws.
1t will be remembered that for many
years Mr.. Chamberlain was engaged in
the screw industry in Birmingham.
"a magnificent bank of orchids which
was exhibited by Mr.. j. Coleman OF
Gatpon park, Surry, was declared to
be the biggest thing of its kind ever
seen. 1t occupied 500 superficial feet.
and contained over 10000 flowers of the
Dendrobien species alone, besides many
hundreds of blossoms of other varie-
ties.
Mr.. w. p. Bound, the gardener, said
1t would be impossible to put a value
upon the exhibit. but 1t must have rep
resented many thousands of pounds
sterling.
Its prevailing color was pink. with
here and there some flashes of other
wonderful orchid hues. and the center
of the bank was distinguished by
masses of white Laolias, and Epeden-
dium Boundi, the latter an orchid o;
rare orange scarlet. The exhibit gained
first prize.

DUEL IN MONASTERY
Deadly Battle Fought Between Mad
man and Monk


Special cable to Tho Herald
ROME, March 25.-A deadly duel was
fought this week in the famous old
Carmelite monastery at Florence be
tween a madman and a monk.
Father Bernardo, the prior, was lying
i'll in his cell talking with monk
named Cellerini, when Giuseppe VII
gozzi, regular attendant at the mon-
astery church, rushed in, and shouting,
you are my sisters betrayer defend
yourself if you are no coward" threw a
poniard at Cellerini's feet. Cellerini.
who was forced to fight, received fatal
thrust, and as he fell dying upon the
floor his assailant uttered shrek of
triumph and rushed from the cell along
the subway connecting it with the
church, which he entered while service
was in progress. Before he was over
powered he stabbed another monk to
death.

The total for this year was divided
into 259,346 indoor and 5S4,50S out
door paupers, or, in other words, one
person in every 125 living in England
and Wales is in the workhouse.
In London the number of paupers
was 12S,1S2, or one in every thirty of
the population. The total is the
largest since 1871, when there were
1924 paupers. The only year since
1871 which has approached anywhere
near to this years total was 1895, and
then the number only reached 125, ,435.
Unlike the average for the whole
country, the majority of London
paupers were in the workhouse, the
figures being: Indoor paupers, 77,49S; I;
outdoor paupers, 5O,69S.
For the purpose of comparison Lon
don is divided into five districts. 1t
is in the south that the largest number
of paupers are to be found, but it was
in the east that the largest increase
took place.

LONDON, March 25.-Mrs. Gilman,
an American authoress, told select
gathering of ladies' at the Women's in
stitution, at Victoria, this week, that
women were not nearly as beautiful as
men. She encouraged them to try to
become as beautiful as men.
The subject of her lecture was "Wo-
men and Beauty" The audience
listened with what was, perhaps, silent
amazement when she told them that
statues made from measurements OF
typical young people in America proved
that man was the more beautiful. Wo-
men were too short from the waist
downward, one reason for this being she
said, that from time immemorial they
had carried too much clothing around
the waist A modification of the liv.
ing frame had taken place.
She poured scorn on some Of the de-
flciencies of women. when q woman

Mrs. Gilman argued that the physi.

said, why woman should balk at g

at the suggestion that woman had

PARIS March 25.-Madame Bardou,
supposed to be miser, was found
murdered in her bedroom this week.
She lived in a house owned by herself
In the Glaciere district and had ten
ants. The old woman acted as her own
concierge, and was always known to be
extremely cautious about admitting
people to her rooms on the first floor
Of the house. Usually the spoke to
passing tenants through a grating, like
an immured nun. Her niece and other
relatives, who occasionally called to see
her, were treated with as scant cour-
tesy as those who were strangers to
her or as her tenants. Nine. Bardou
was gagged and strangled by, 1t is
supposed, Apaches Of the district who
had been watching for her for some
time and who knew that, in spite of
her sordid appearance, she owned two
houses-the one in which she lived and
another near it. The old woman's
rooms were in disorder. The murderers
had not taken all her money, for in
the hooks and corners of her squalid
and spider webbed fiat gold and silver
pieces to the extent Of $25,o0O were dis
covered. Under the mattress of her
bed was a packet containing notes and
securities worth nearly s50,000. Money
was likewise found in the old woman's
cellar. 1t is conjectured that the mur-
derers went away with only few hun
dred francs and some old jewelry.

CHAGRIN LEADS TO
EXPERTS SUICIDE
Art Dealers Judgment on Supposed
Rembrandt Upset by Verdict
in the Courts

Special cable to The Herald.
PARIS, March 25.-An adverse judg-
ment of the courts that reflected on
his reputation as an expert in art
matters is said to have been the cause
of the suicide this week of M. Lam
noy, we'll known Partisan art dealer.
The event has aroused great interest
and sympathy in the circles where M.
E1nnoy was best known.
AS an expert he had recently advised
Baron de Vaux to purchase a picture
attributed to Rembrandt. nj. Lannoy
held that it was authentic. Doubts
having arisen, however, the baron re-
fused to pay for the work. and the
matter was referred to the courts. The
judges in the case summoned four
other experts, and they were unanimous
in deciding that the picture was not
authentic. A verdict was rendered In
accordance with this opinion, and two
days afterward M. Lannoy ended his
life.
