IIIIIIII huh llll SHOT

Accidentally lliddled by the Duke of
Connaught While Hunting.

ONE OF HIS EYES REMOVED.

It Was Pcnetrated by a Shot and the Doc-
tors Decided That It Had to Be
Taken Out at Once —The Prince’s
Condition Serious.

LONDON, Dec. 29.——His Royal Highness
Prince Christian of Schleswig—Holstein, the
husband of the Princess Helena Augusta
Victoria, third daughter of the queen of
England, had a narrow escape from death
on Saturday last at the hands of the Duke
of Connaught, the third son of the queen.

Particulars of the affair show that Prince
Christian, the duke and a party of friends
were out shooting in the game preserves
near Osborne castle, the seat of Queen Vic-
toria, on the Isle of Wight, situated about
1% miles from Cowes.

I ' Three Shots in His Face.

The prince was slightly in advance and to
the right of the duke, according to the
stories told, when the latter, seeing a pheas-
ant in that direction, suddenly lifted his
gun and fired. To his dismay, Prince Chris-
tian uttered a cry of pain and fell to the
ground.

The prince was soon surrounded. by sym-
pathizing friends, the duke being the most
eager in his efforts to assist the sufferer,
who was promptly taken to Osborne castle.
Ahasty medical examination showed that
three leaden pellets from the duke’s gun had
lodged in Prince Christian’s face; two of
these pellets were cut out of his cheeks, but
the third was found to have pierced the pa-
tient’s right eye.

His Eye Removed.

After a careful examination Of Prince
Christian’s eye the physicians decided that
it must be removed without further'delay
and the operation was pe'rférmed success-
fully. The other wounds from the scatter—
ing shot are more serious than was at first
supposed and the condition of the prince
alarms the court and the royal family. The
queen is most solicitous; she visits the
woundedprince frequently and is constantly
informed of his condition.

Another version of the accident is that
the Duke of Connaught, when he lifted his
gun to fire, thought that Prince Christian
was yards behind him. Following the birds
as they rose he turned suddenly and fired.
In the meantime the prince had moved up
in advance and got within range, without
being seen by the duke, and received a por—
tion of the latter’s charge, which scattered.

There was great excitement when it was
known that the prince was hurt. The news
was quickly conveyed- to the royal residence,
and somethinglike consternation prevailed
there for ar'vhile‘. The alarm is not over
yet.

Another Plot Against the Czar.
LONDON, Dec. 29.——A dispatch from War-
Saw says that another plot against the life
of the czar has been discovered by the Rus-
sian police. The dispatch referred to gives
but few particulars concerning the new
plot, but it adds that a large number of
Polish and Russian students and many
military and civil officials have been placed
under arrest. The prisoners, according to
the Russian police, are all members of a
secret league formed against the authority
of the czar with the object of obtaining a.

representative government for Russia.

Twins for Belle Bilton.

LONDON, Dec. 29,—The Countess of Clan-
carty, formerly Belle Bilton, of music hall
notoriety, yesterday gave birth to twins,
both—boys... The ear] is delighted, and cele-
brated the event by telegraphing announce-
ments to the principal newspapers.

Suicide Followed Detection.
PADUCAH, Ky., Dec. 29.—E. H. King, a
postal clerk on the Paducah, Tennessee and.
Alabama railroad, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the head. King’s
act was the outcome of his detection in a
bit of thievery.

A Railroad System Tied Up. {
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Dec. 29.—The entire
system of the San Antonia and Aransas
Pass railroad is tied up by a strike of its em-
ployees. The trouble was caused by the
discharge of a conductor for an alleged vio-
lation of orders.

A Roundhouse Burned.
PATERSON, N. J., Dec. 29.—-—The round-
house and repairing shops of the Susque-
hanna railroad, at Wertendyke, were de-
stroyed by fire Sunday. Four engines and
several lumber cars were destroyed. Loss,
$32,000.

Thirteen Were Injured.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 29.—The westbound
passenger train on the Santa Fe from Chi-
cago was wrecked at Newcomb, MO., by
spreading Tails. Thirteen persons were in-
jured, but no one was killed or fatally hurt.

BRIEF MENTION.

Navy department officials discussed the
possibilities of getting the Miantonomoh 01
Monterey ready for sea in a short time.
The Washington gun walks are on twelve
hour turns instead of six, as heretofore. Old
naval ofiicers are discussing the probabilities
of war with avidity.

Great destitution exists in the state of
Durango, Mexico, people actually dying of
starvation. Corn is being sold at cost to the
poor, and money or orders for the purchase
of corn are being distributed by organized
charity.

Rev. Dean McNulty, of Paterson, made a
raid on some of the saloons in that city. He
found many prominent politicians and
church members indulging in the forbidden
beverages.

During a performance at the Theatei
Royal, Gateshead, England, a frightful panic
occurred, in which ten persons were killed
and many injured. A small partition caught
fire, and in the mad rush for the doors
which immediately followed men, women
'and children were crushed and trod’den
down.

The French senate has ratified the Brus
sels antislave trade convention, the cham-
ber of deputies having previously done so.
Of the eighteen powers represented at the
conference the United States alone remaim
to ratify the treaty, and this must be done
before Feb. 2 next, the exchange being
made at Brussels.

The coinage of gold pieces at the Phila
delphia mint will be resumed early next
year. There remains but little silver of the
appropriation to be coined, and apart 01
this will be retained for the new quarters‘
and dimes, and probably enough of the hall
dollars to familiarize the people with the
new design.

OUR FLAG TORN T0 SHREDS.

-An Outrage on the Stars and Stripes by

Russian Sailors.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 29.—Capta-in Alex-
ander MacLean, late commander of the
American sealing schooner James H. Lewis,
arrived yesterday from Siberia. He brings
with him a fragment of the American flag
which was cut down from the masthead of
the American vessel by sailors sent by the
Russian cutter Alert. Captain MacLean
tells this story:

We were two miles off- Copper island,
When on Aug. 20 the Russian cutter Alert
bore down on us, and without any parley
seized the James Lewis and placed a prize
crew on board. The American flag was
floating at the masthead, and as the hal-
yards were cut it was no easy matter to
get it down. A young Russian sailor
at last climbed to the masthead and cut
and tore off all he could of it.

I regarded this action as an insult to the
American government, and said so, but the
Russians on board seemed bound to get the
colors down, and the crew'of the Lewis be-
ing prisoners were unable to prevent it.
We were supposed to be on our way to
Vladivostok to stand trial for being found
fitted out for sealing in Russian waters.

As soon as the American flag was torn
from the mast the Russian colors were run
up. The portion of the American flag cut
from the mast was brought to the deck and
torn into small pieces, which were thrown
overboard. The remaining ragged piece at
the masthead still flew to the breeze and
remained there until the schooner was for-
mally confiscated at Vladivostok, where
the name, James H. Lewis, was obliterated
and a Russian name put on. We were never
tried by any Russian court, but were kept
as government prisoners at Vladivostok for
over two months. We were free to roam
about the place, but could not leave Siberia
without the necessary permission.

Imade a formal protest to the Russian
officials against the confiscation of our
schooner, but it was without avail. At last
they got tired of feed us and gave us per-
mission to get out of the country, which we
did in short order. As soon as we reached
Nagasaki I made a formal complaint to the
United States consul there. I will take the
matter before the authorities at Washing-
ton and will begin an action for damages
against the Russian government.

A Life Tel-In for Deliberate llIurder.

GLASGOW, Ky., Dec. 29.—-—William Martin
has just been sentenced for a life term in
the penitentiary for the murder of John
Burks ayear and a half ago. Burks was
the largest land owner in Metcalfe county.
Burks was Martin’s own cousin, and they
were continually quarreling. One day,
after a bitter controversy, Martin went
home, got his Winchester and sat down on
his front porch. He knew Burks must pass
that way as he went to town. In an hour
Burks came along on horseback. V‘v’hen he
had passed the house a fewayards Martin
shot him through the heart from the back.

Cowboys on a Lark.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex., Dec. 20.—A half dozen
cowboys took possession of a south bound
passenger train on the International and
Great Northern railroad last night about
forty miles north of this place. They played
high jinks with the passengers. At the
point of drawn revolvers they compelled a
drummer with a red necktie to leave the
train, anda number of ladies in the Pullman
coaches were forced to entertain the cow-
boys with several Songs. They had full con-
trol of the train for a distance of about
twenty miles. They finally got off at a
small way station.

Horseman Sansone a Murderer.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 29. —Antonio‘ San-
sone, one of the wealthiest and most prom-
inent Italians of this city, and who is well
known in the east as an owner of fast horses,
shot and killed Giuseppi Manchirechini in a.

saloon. The ,men had formerly been .good ,

friends, 'and through Manchirechini Sa -
sone was induced to loan another Italian
$125, which was never returned. The two
men frequently quarreled over the affair
and it was the cause of the tragedy. '

 

Swept to Death by‘~ Tidal Waves.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec." 29.—Advices from
the South seas give startling news from the
Gilbert islands in the Pacific. Very severe
weather prevailed, during which there were
several tidal upheavals. Waves broke high
over some of the islands, causing great loss
of life and completely demolishing houses.
At one islandnlone the Rev. J. W. Hills, of
the London Missionary society, writes, “N o
fewer than eighty natives perished.”

Poison Ended the Honeymoon.

Los ANGELES, Cal., Dec. 29.—W. B- Mc-
Gregor, a newspaper reporter, and Leah
Benjamin, aged seventeen, who were se-
cretly married two months ago, took mor-
phine with suicidal intent. McGregor was
dead when found. The girl may recover.
No cause is known for the act other than
the secret of their marriage.

Escaped Just in Time.

DAYTON, 0., Dec. 29.—Louis Vanderburg,
who was convicted of burglarizing the resi-
dence of Horace J ustice' and taking dia-
monds and jewehy valued at $1,500, escaped

tenced to the penitentiary for five years and
Was to be taken to the Columbus prison to-
day.

" VVORLD’S— FAIR NOTES.

The board of lady managers of the
World’s Columbian commission has issiied a
circular to’attract the attention and co—op-
eration of women. This circular states that
it is the intention of the lady managers to
give an object lesson to show the progress
made by women in every country during
the last century. A representative collec-
tion of women’s work from every part of
the world is asked for to show what has
been done by them in the arts, sciences and
industries. According to the circular the
Women’s work will not be separated from
that of the men, and the prizes will be
awarded after a fair competition Without
regard to sex. Besides the exhibit in the
general buildings women will have an op-
portunity of showing their work in the
Women’s building, over which the board of
lady managers will exercise complete con-
trol. Besides this an opportunity will be
given to women who wish to incorporate
intended exhibits in the construction of the
building. ‘

Major Brackett and his colleague, Mr.
Jamieson, members of the Chicago fair com-
mission, now in Paris, are about to start on
a tour of the commercial centers of France,

Spain and Portugal to stimulate interest in,

the Chicago fair.

A letter received from the Chilian minis-
ter of foreign affairs indicates that that re-
public intends to participate actively in the
Columbian fair.

Chilian Agents Caught in the Act of
Surveying the Harbor of San Fran-
cisco—War Supplies Ordered
to the Pacific Coast.

= WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.——The navy depart-
ment has ordered the shipment of 42,000
pounds of prismatic powder and 11,000

6-inch shells from League Island, Pa, to_

San Francisco. The department has also
ordered the new 12-inch gun made at the
Washington navy yard to be sent to San
Francisco. The gun will be placed on a
large flat car and taken to the Pacific coast
as soon as possible; _ . .

The Post asserts positively that despite
the denials of , navy yard officers an unusual
activity exists at that important gun fac—
tory. Some of the employees were at work
Sunday, and gasfitters have been employed
for a week or more arranging gas fixtures
so that that work may continue at night.
The men are under orders to work twelve
hours per day. ‘

Commander O’Neill, inspector of ord-
nance, who is in charge of the yard, said
yesterday that they were always busy at
the yard when a new ship was ordered, and
the ordnance department kept ahead of the
construction, so that when the ships would
be completed the armament could be ready.

“re Will Insist on Reparation.

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.—A special to The Her-
ald from Washington says that to give
Chili a thorough whipping, unless she
promptly apologizes for the murder of
American sailors in the streets of Val—
paraiso, is still the disposition of the admin-
istration. This disposition has not changed
since the president first received news of
the outrage and learned- of the seeming in-
difference of the provisional government of
Chili to its atrocious character. The presi-
dent within a few days has assured gentle,-
men who have talked with him that he
meant to firmly mantain the dignity of our
government and insist upon an apology
and reparation.

Not a line has come from Mr. Egan which
indicates a more courteous spirit on the
part of Chili than she showed at the begin-
ning. The dispatches which have come
within the last few days have indicated a
very ugly feeling on the part of the people
'of Chili against the United States, and that
the men who talk the loudest against us
seem to be the accepted advisers of the new
government.

The newspaper press of Chili is also filled
with bombastic threats tending to excite
the people against the Americans, and giving
no hint of any disposition to atone for the
high handed murder which sent the Ameri-
can sailors to their graves. If Chili intends
to assume a more pacific tone she has yet
to give the first sign of any such purpose.

Chilian Spies Arrested.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 29.—-The arrest is
announced by the police of this city of two
foreigners, one a Spaniard and the other a
native of Chili. The two men were arrest-
ed on a charge of vagrancy, Which proba-
bly cannot be sustained, as each is well sup-
plied with money and the possessor of an
elaborate wardrobe.

Occasional trips that the pair made down
to the harbor, and the fact that upon such

trips they always carried a compass and V

were frequently seen to be making what

seemed'to be a-surreptitious survey ofthe ‘

harbor, particularly of that portitfi; contigu-
ous to the navy yard, caused their action to
arouse some comment among army and

. , navy officers, and it was dedded, after con-

sultation with the civil authorities, to place
the strangers under arrest, and by means of
a trial for vagrancy try to force information
that will lead to uncovering the real object
of their visit to San Francisco. Many ad-
vance the opinion that the prisoners are
Chilian spies. ‘

President Montt Sworn In.

SANTIAGO, Dec. 29.—Sixty thousand Chil-
ians witnessed the proclaiming of Admiral
Montt as president. There were only 1,000
troops to keep order along the route of the
procession, a distance of half a mile. Thou-
sands of people waited patiently for hours
in the broiling sun. Admiral Montt took
the oath of office in the hall of congress in
the presence of a brilliant gathering of offi-
cials. Thence he proceeded to the cathe-
dral, where he was received by the arch-
bishop and bishops, and the “Te Deum”
was sung. Salvoos of artillery greeted the
various ceremonies. The public rejoicing
continued until past midnigt. Perfect or-
der was maintained throughout.

Cartwright Won the Race.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 29.—George Cartwright, of
Bridgeport, Conn., won the six days’ go-as-
you-please race here. His score was 502
miles and 3 laps. Pete Hegelman, of New
York, was second, 500 miles and 14 laps.
Glick, of Philadelphia, was third, 472 miles.
The fourth man was Herty, who had 449
miles on the board. “Old Sport” Campana
had 365, Taylor 310 and Palmer 305. The
contest was a financial success and the four
leaders divided about $2,000.

Killed \Vhile Resisting Arrest.

LAKE LINDEN, Mich, Dec. 29.—Marshal '

Mayatte and Justice Brule attempted to ar-
rest Alexan‘der Perala and Michael Kotila.
The men made a stubborn resistance, stab-
bing both the marshal and justice. Mayatte
finally drew his revolver and shot both men.
Parala. died instantly and Kotila received a
fatal wound in the back.

Bloody Times in China.

LONDON, Dec. 29.—A dispatch from Singa— .

pore says that official advices from Peking
report severe fighting with the rebels from
Dec. 3 to Dec. 7, in which 2,000 rebels were
killed and fifty leaders beheaded.
