BUILDS QUEER STRUCTURE
Freak Cathedral" Attracts the Gu.
rfous at Winnipeg.

Freak "Cathedral" Attracts the Gu
rious at Winnipeg.
Archbishop Seraphim" has been in
trouble over his cathedral" He has
paid about 500 on a total amount Of
5000, says the Winnipeg correspond
ents OF the New York Herald.
The archbishop feels that Winnipeg
would be disgraced If he and his con-
gregation should be left without a
home.
'srhis "junk-shop cathedral of the
good bishop is one of winnipegs cur
riosIties. From a far window In Stel-
la street there dawns upon the aston
lshed sight a structure which is an EN-
bodied interrogation point. 1t is an
octagonal one story building Of wood,
the side put together as a board fence
and painted orange; the sloping roof
is OF tin and close inspection shows
that It is gilded or painted In the sim
ilitude OF the heavens, with a sprin-
king Of stars.
The whole is surmounted by a cupola
Of brass and old iron, shakily con-
structed while still more crazy tow
err leans like that OF Pisa over a
'chlme" OF four bells OF different
shapes and sizes. The pointed windows
with their wooden shutters marked by
rude crosses make 1t evident that 1t is
church OF some kind.
This is the Cathedral constructed
by Archbishop Seraphim," a Russian
who is said to have been excommuni-
Gated from the Greek orthodox church,
but who has small following in Win
nipeg.
One enters a little chamber which
might hold twenty-five persons, though
1t seems crowded with two. 1t is car
lpeted after a fashion, but 1t is a scene
of most woeful litter. Gaudy chromos
and faded banners decorate the wall
Two immense candles are twined with
artificial red peoples. In the center
is a gilt pipe skeleton canopy, II one
may call it such, with brass dome
over It. On a table beneath is a toy
bank, a subscription book and a stone
jug. These really constituted the raj
son d'etre of the building for one wa,
lnsinuatingly shown the book. a stubby
pencil was handed one and dirty
forehnger pointed out Premier Rob
Inns name.
AS l stood outside gazing once mor'
at the queer little edifice, said to {
woman on the doorstep, "What is al

In commenting upon a recent acci-

The overcrowding Of cars, their def

Why things are 30 may be explained

financial difficulties that she was oblig-
ed to undertake that important work
in the cheapest possible way, the re
suit being that there is practically no
track In the peninsula adapted TO the
present needs OF the service, to the
speed Of fast trains and the weight of
modern engines.
For instance, the railway station at
Rome is now exactly what it was I'M
der the papacy, when scarcely forty
trains a day arrived and when the
eternal city had only 100000 lnhabi-
tants and when tourists went there in
very limited numbers. Now there are
about 300 trains daily, the population
is over 100000 and the city is not only
visited for its antiquities but has be-
come a winter resort, there being an
annual influx Of about 100000 foreign.
ers. The immediate cause of the pres
ent deadlock is the systematic neglect
of the companies which for twenty
years mismanaged the railways in theiI
own interests.
The government is now putting about
$100,000,000 at the disposal of the di
rector general OF the railways. but the
complete reorganization of the railway
service is necessarily a matter Of time

terrific crash and tearing up the tracks

OF those instantly killed by far the
greater number were women. Many

Many of the injured were quickly ex-
trlcated from the wreckage, while 9th

not be taken out for some time. Those
most seriously injured were hurried to
hospitals. while coroners took charge
of the dead as fast as bodies were re
covered Fire started in the overturn

extinguished, and the iremen lent
their aid to the injured. Special trains
carried many Of the injured to White

were taken to hospitals in this city.

Japanese, whose demOnstrative ad-
