FAST TRAIN IN A RIVER
Sleepers Leave Track in Pennsylvania
and Fifty Persons Are Injured.

Johnstown, Pa. Feb. 23.-Fifty per-
sons were injured when Pennsylvania
railroad train No. 20, the e~ighteen-hour
special limited between New York and
Chicago, ~westbound, left the track at
a sharp curve near Mineral Point,
eight miles west Of here, early this
morning. No one was killed outright,
although several Of the injured may
die. The three rear sleeping cars
went over an embankment into the
Conemaugh river. The track is torn
up for a distance OF 500 feet. The
curve is one of the worst on the line
and is dreaded by trainmen. 1t is
said the speed of the train was too
great in rounding the curve.
The train was more than an hour
behind schedule time and when the
accident happened it was running at
terrific speed. On leaving the rails
the train tore down all telegraph and
telephone poles for a distance of 500
feet and the Pennsylvania railroad
itself, in order to get information, was
Obliged to send yardmen from Johns
town with a yard engine.

A RARE BIRD.
Why an American Snowman Could
Not Get IL For His Museum.

When the eminent French writer
Ferdinand Bruneticre visited the Unit
ed States some years ago. lccturins at
Harvard ana other leading miyc"sl-
ties, he had an amusing experience,
which he described In the rccollcCtlOns
of his American tour which he after
ward published. The great littCratcur
devoted much attention to the life and
works of BoSsuct, who was often styled
the Eagle of MeauX." on account per-
haps of lbs lofty flights of cloqucncc.
This fact. with others pertaining to
his literary career, was mentioned by
some daily papers during his stay in
this country. 1t caught the eyes Of a
shrewd American Snowman. who, how
ever, got somewhat mixed ovcr the
meaning of the allusion. He wrote the
following letter to the French author:
Sir-I have just heard that a certain
MeauX eagle, very celebrated, II appears.
In your country. has become your cN.
elusive property. Now, | am the mans
ngcr of a museum I'm one of the largest
cities I'm the States. This McDuX eagle.
whose reputation has been enhanced by
your c%loquencc. would certainly not fail Ia
excite the curiosity of my public. II You
will let me have the rare bird and tell me
how to feed 1t, you can quote your
figure.
Brunetiere politely explained that the
rare BIRD had been dead for nearly
200 years.

ALL ARE LOST BUT Is
ONLY HANDFUL SURVIVE FRIGHT.
Full SEA TRAGEDY.

Il.Fated Berlin is Resting on Rem.
nant Of Steamer Leeds, Which Was
Lost on Same Spot in 1882-Prince
Henry a Hero.
Hook of Holland, Feb. 23.-Largely
as a result of the courage II deter
mination of Prince Henry of The
Netherlands, the prince %consort, that
which appeared to be an impossible
task, has been achieved and the he
roic and unfinching efforts of the
Dutch lifeboat men have succeeded in
rescuing alive eleven more of the sur.
vivors of the Inflated steamer Berlin.
This makes the number of saved tif.
teen out Of the 141 who were on board
the vessel.
The gallant Dutch lifeboat men were
rewarded after more than thirty hours
OF hard and dangerous work. Buffeted
and driven back time after time. they
refused to relax their attempts to res
cue the handful of shipwrecked peo.
pie. and finally at $3.50 the receding
tide and some improvement in the
weather haHng made the conditions
easier, their long fight was crowned
with success.
Although several of the persons
rescued were in the last stages of eX-
haustion, they are on the road to re.
covcry and some of them have been
able to tell of their awful experiences.
The names of the saved passengers
follow: Mr.. Young. Mr.. Broederson,
Fraulcin Buttel, Fraulein Gabler, Frau
Schroeder.
Under the reviving influence of food
the survivors soon became compare
lively cheerful. Fraulein Buttel and
Frau Schraeder, although practically
starving and with their hands and
feet terribly frostbitten, showed re-
markable cbecrfulness.
Relating her experiences, Frau
S~chraeder said: 81 never can forget
the terrible hours of anguish and de-
SPAR we passed through while watch
ing the gallant efforts of the crews of
the lifeboats and tugs to snatch us
from the jaws of death. Mountainous
death-cold pillows broke over the ship
every minute and the dense, binding
blizzard hid from us the comforting
lights of the Hook. We watched the
operations of our rescuers with breath.
less anxiety, but when we finally un.
derstOOd their actions and saw there
was a chance of life, we could hardly
believe our eyes. Exhaustion, expo
sure, hunger and fear had made us so
miserable that even the joy of life
brought no smile to our faces and no
words to our lips"
1t now appears certain that after the
catastrophe there were many more
thar fifteen persons remaining on the
wreck, and that most of them were
washed off by the waves. One woman
was carried away just before the res
cue was effected. The survivors hud-
died together for warmth and the
members OF the crew who were still
alive shared their food with the 9th
ers. There was not enough to go
around, however, and for t~wenty-four
hours not a morsel of food passed
the lips of these unfortunate people.
The survivors highly praise Prince
Henry. who personally assisted the
women and had gloves provided for
them. The prince wrapped his fur
overcoat about one woman.
II has been discovered that the
Berlin is resting on the remains o.
the British steamer Leeds, which was
lost on the same spot in 1882.
