 "I have just paid visit to Mrs Mig ner at her home, S64 Fifth avenue. We had long talk and canvassed the situ- ation thoroughly. 1 tried to persuade her to see you newspaper men at least once and settle the whole business She wouldn't do it tonight, but she may give out statement tomorrow.
 Now, as matter of fact. the req son why she denied being married to me was that the news came out too soon to suit her, though it wasn't through any fault of my owlL She didn't expect that the marriage would he announced for a good while, and when on Wednesday she found that the newspapers were full of 1t she was pretty angry.

STRUCK BY ENGINE
Michael Shea of South Leonard
 Street in Serious Condition.

Michael Shea of 102 South Leonard street, a man about seventy years of age, figured in an accident this morn ing about 10 o'clock and as d result he is in very serious condition at his home. Mir Shea is employed ar the round house near the Meriden junction and this morning was hand ling rope which was attached to q coal bucket and with which he was transferring coal from freight car to an engine. In his work he had to cross track on which was stationed a switch engine which was in charge of Engineer Brink. While Shea was in the middle of the rails the switch engine backed up few feet and hit Shea. who did not know that it was going to move. It only moved few feer, but it proceeded far enough to knock the man down and throw him into an ash pit couple of feet lower than the rails. One of the wheels passed over the mans legs and they were badly cr"a"od His head was
 so injured and it Is feared that he is injured internally. A peculiar thing in connection with the accident is that the engine crew or anyone else about the place did not know that Shea was under the engine until the rope from the coal bucket was discovered lead ing under the engine. The wounded man was immediately removed and although he had suffered very much he was still conscious. He was taken to his home in Lunny's ambulance Ginness were quickly called. They found the man bearing the ordeal wonderfully considering his age. His right leg will be amputated, but it may be possible to save the left one, although the latter is badly fractured in several places. ,.
 It was fortunate that he fell into tlIa ash pit, otherwise he would have been crushed to death, for the engine would have passed over his entire body instead of his legs only. The other men who work in the vicinity of the round house were astonished to see Shea alive when they took him from under the engine.
 He has lived in Brooklyn for the past twenty-five years and has spent his life working on the railroad. His son has charge of all the road engines in the vicinity.
 At press hour Mir Shea was resting comfortably and the attending physi- clan stated that the man has chance of pulling through.

DONOVAN CASE
Court and Counsel Visited Scene
 of Accident Yesterday.

1 Judge Shumway, in the superior court to-day, reopened the case of Louise Donovan against the Consoli- dated Railroad Co for 5000 dama ges for the death of her brother, Edward. who was killed on a railroad crossing in Naugatuck one morning last spring as he was going to work
 Yesterday the court and counsel witnessed the 1:05 train pass over the crossing where the accident occurred. Attorney Kennedy in the morning had requested that the same engine and the same engineer on the train which Killed Donovan be used on this Ocea- sion, and that the engineer should sit exactly as he was sitting at the time of the fatal accident. The whole town turned out to see the sight, for some how 1t got around that the court and counsel would witness the approach of the train. In his complaint Attoriley Kennedy alleged that the train was running at the rate of thirty-five miles an hour when the accident happened; yesterday he complains that it did not go at the rate of eighteen miles an hour. The engine that killed Donovan was not used, but the same engineer was on duty.
 This morning Attorney Kennedy held what took place yesterday was not a fair representation of how the accident occurred. It was the opinion Of everybody who saw. it. he said. that the train did not go faster than eigh- teen miles an hour. He asked the court to select any day he pleased and. unknown to counsel and the railroad company. watch the train pass over the crossing where Donovan was killed. The court said he would not agree to do anything of the kind unless by agreement of counsel MT Kellogg then said he had not the slightest ob- Jecflon, whereupon the court said he would do as requested.

COOL TEACHERS
Marched Five Hundred Children Out of Burning Building
 in Safety.

Berlin, N. H., Feb 2.-Fifteen min utes after 800 school children had marched into the Marston intermediate school on Willard street today, they were quietly assembled and marched out onto the street again by a corps of cool teachers, a dangerous fire hay ing been discovered in the building.
 The entire schoolhouse was a wooden structure, three stories high, and a short time after the exit of the pupils and teachers the entire building burst into flames, and an hour after the fire started the schoolhouse was in ru4ns. Burning brands, carried by a strong wind. started small fires in nearby residences, by the firemen succeeded in each instance in extinguishing the flames with very slight losses.
 It Is thought that the fire started from the heating apparatus. The loss on the schoolhouse is estimated at about $2O,O00 and is partially covered by insurance. This is the second schoolhouse in year. the high school having been burned last February.

EMPEROR SPEAKS.
He Ha. Addressed Plain Out Spoken Document to
 the People.

St Petersburg, Feb. 2-In view of the profound conviction prevailing among the marshals of the nobility, members of the zemstyos and other classes which are in direct touch with the peasants say that the spring will witness renewal of agrarian disor- ders throughout the, country on a more deplorable scale than ever be- fore, the emperor has addressed plain, Outspoken mandate to the peas- antry setting forth that the rights of property are sacred and that the peas ants will be violating his will if they attempt. to enter into possession of private lands. At the same time his majesty has assured the peasants that with. the cooperation of the national assembly he will institute measures for their relief
 The enperors words were delivered personally to- a deputation from the Kursk government and will be sent broadcast throughout the empire in the hope of counteracting the wide spread belief prevailing among the peasnntry that his majesty has ordered the distribution of all private lands and that only the landowners and To- cal officials were hampering the execu- tion of his will. The emperor on this occasion addressed the Kursk peasants as "my. brothers and talked to them in simple Rus'yan terms capable of bslpg undegst6od by the most ignorant, peasant. He said :-S ! --a s....-..
 T am glad to see you. You must know very well that every right Of property is sacred to the state. The owner has the same right to his land as you peasants have to yours. Con- m1nicate this to your fellows in the villages.
 Tn my solicitide for you do not forget the peasants whose needs are dear to me and will look after them perpetually as did my late father. The. Gosudarstvennaia Duma tnational as- sembly) will soon assemble and in CO., operation with me discuss the best measures for your relief. Have con fidence in me. I will assist you. But repeat. remember always that right Of property is holy and inviolable."
 Count Eugene Troubetskoy who pre- scnted the resolutions of the marshals of the nobility to the emperor in an in- terview attributed the agrarian troubles directly to the revolutionary propaganda. He expects excesses in the spring when the peasants through out the empire in preparing to take possession of and sow private lands, will become wilder than ever because they will he unable to agree on n ;li- vision of the spoils and will fall to fighting among themselves.
 The landowners arc pro f, ica lIy rt1fn- cd. The convocation of the national assembly is Immediately necessary to enable the government to raise money abroad. set it on it's feet and enable it to carry out it's plans for the whole sale colonization of Siberia. which is an imperative measure of relief.

HoRNBILL IMPRIsoNs MATE.
Male Bird Sees to It That the Mother Is Faithful to
 Her Trust.

A remarkable mode of incarceration is practised by the hornbills. birds with immense bills and horny crests. which inhabit southern Asia, the Ma layan islands. and Central and South ern Africa. In most if not all species the brooding female Is walled up in . hollow tree and fed by her mate. says the Scientific American
 She remains confined in her prison until the eggs are matched, and in some species until the young birds are able to fy. Meanwhile the mother has beoore temporarily incapable of flight. as she has noul,ed. or al least shed all her wing feathers. during her csptiyi- ty. But the msle Is indefs;igable in proviainx for his family. and is said to work 70 hard that he is reduced al- most to a skeleton al the end of the breeding season.
 According to the theory of many ns- tives th. female Is imprisoned to pre- vent her Eexlscting her duty Of brood ing. and if she had been unfaithful or negligent her mate closes the little rtnSor Of her cell and sbandons her to a painful death by sasocation- The true story. perhaps. is this: The fe- male walls hersslf in 70 that she can not fan iron the nest sftsr losing her fezthers. sss also to protscs herself iron enemies.
