Herrmann the Third.
Leon Herrmann was born in Paris in
1862. It was also under the direction
of Carl Herrmann that he mastered his
profession, and with him visited the
principal cities of Europe and South
America. When he had reached the
age of twenty he had to interrupt his
tour and return to France for military
duty. 'In three. years he rose to the
rank of sergeant-major. When quit-
ting the service he at once took up the
task of mistifying the public. He
speaks several languages and gives
every promise of perpetuating the name
of Herrmann in the world of magic,
mirth and mystery. He Will appear at
Hoyt’s Theatre to-morrow night.

The annual meeting of the stock-

promptly, with perfect discipline, although
the men were fully conscious of the danger
which they were in. They were quietly
mustered between decks.
Owing to the fact that the surfboats
~ could not be'uscd in landing the troops,
and sick on board until daylight. But the
steamship was found to be heeling over so
rapidly that every one was ordered to the
upper deck, the danger of capsizing being
imminent. Thereupon Commander Hol-
land ordered the landing of the troops to
be stopped, so that the women, children
and sick persons should he landed imme-
diatcly.
This order was obeyed with admirable
discipline. By 5 o’clock the decks had
heeled over to an angle of 50 degrees to
starboard, and the boats were all swept
away. The good swimmers were then per—
mitted to swim ashore, carrying ropes.
By these means many others were landed,
and the discmbarkation of all on board
was completed by 5 :30 a. m., with the loss
of only two native servants. Many acts of
personal bravery were recorded.

JAIL I'OR VON BRUSEWITZ.
He Gets Three Years and Twenty Day:
For Stabbing a. Citizen.
BERLIN, Jan. 28.—Thc second trial of
former Lieutenant von Bruscwitz on the
charge of stabbing the workman Siepmann
at Carlsruhe has just ended in the convic-
tion of Von Brusewitz.
The court martial found him guilty and
sentenced him to 3 years and 20 days in
jail.
It will be remembered that the kaisei
annulled the finding of the first court and
ordered a second trial.
The case, sufficiently sensational in it-
self, achieved further notoriety by the sup-
pression of the play “Morituri” at the
Court theater of Carlsruhe in connection
with it. Lieutenant Fritzchen, one of the
parts of the trilogy, contained allusions to
the Von Brusewitz case thinly disguised,
which offended the military commander
of the town, General von Bulow.
He appealed to the grand duke to pro.
hibit the play. The duke was apparently
reluctant, and the general took heroic
measures. _
He forbade his men to go to the theater.
That settled it. At the last moment the
duke put his foot down, and “Morituri”
was not given. .

The Awful Sufferings of an
Exile.
A truly wonderful instance of the im-
mediate and certain effects of California
Catarrh Cure on the worst chronic cases
when all other medicines and physi-
cians of greater or less reputation have
failed, and even a sojourn abroad re-
sulted'in no permanent relief, is that of
Miss Cunn of 650 Dexter street, Paw-
tucket, R. I., who has suffered intense-
ly for eight years with one of the worst
cases of chronic nasal and pharyngeal
catarrh. Miss Cunn says:
“I have been a sufferer for eight
years and my case was the worst I eVer
knew about. Nearly all the symptoms
that are given as that of catarrh I had.
The passages of my head and throat
were completely stuffed up all the time.
and my nose was blocked so that it was
impossible for me to sleep with mv
mouth closed. My throat bothered me
awfully. It was dry in the morning,
and I had to hawk and Cough almost
all the time to clear it of phlegm that
kept filling it. .
“I have used almost two bottles of
Californga Catarrh Cure and the effect
has been wonderful. Ode by one the
symptoms have gradually disappeared.
My sense of taste has improved,breath-
ing has become easier, the clearing of
my head has made me feel immenselv
better In every way and altogether I
have been so relieved, that I am almost
completely cured.
I had tried many other medicines,
treatment by a specialist and a long
visit abroad; nothing helped me till I
used CaliforniaOatarrh Cure, and that
is curing me quickly and surely.”
