caravaeglo Picture Found.

An important find has been made in
the art collections OF Marchese della
Stufa at France. It is a painting by
Caravaggio, which had been lost sight
of for many years. The painting was
known to connoisseurs through a print
in the Galleria degli Ufzzi.
Sig di Pietro, the secretary of this
gallery, was determined to find the
picture. 1t was known that in the
year 100 it was in possession Of the
Cerretani family. which is now ex-
tinct.
Sig di Pietro, while examining Mar
cheese della Stufa's collection saw the
painting and Immediately identified it.
The Ufizzi print is an exact reproduc-
ton of the picture, which is a typical
Caravaggio. 1t depicts six youths, one
of whom is playing a violin. one lutte
and one flute, while two are singing
and one is listening.-New York Sun.

CONTINENTAL LIMITED FALLS
INTO RIVER WEST OF
ATTlCA.
STEEL CARS SAVE MANY LIVES
All Injured Are Quickly Taken From
Wreckaee and Sent to Hospital
In Lafayette.

Attica. Ind.-Three persons were
killed. eight seriously injured and
about 80 others hurt, when the engine
and three cars of the Wabash passen-
ger train No. 4, known as the Cont
mental limited. were toppled into the
Wabash river just west Of here Sun
day, by breaking of two spans of the
railroad bridge. Allsteel cars, rail
road officials say, probably prevented
a greater loss of life.
The engine and the first baggage
car fell at the edge of the water and
the combination baggage car fell into
the river. The passengers in the
smoking car climbed through the win
dows and waded to the banks.
When the cars left the bridge, the
day coach which was crowded fell
with the rear end out of the water
and though the majority of the in
jured were in this car, none of them
was killed The car hardly had set
tied in the water before the work of
rescuing the passengers was com
menced, and in few minutes all had
been taken out They were taken TO
a hospital at Lafayette on special
train.
