> ae 9 4 THE EVENING STAR: THE EVENING STAR. THE EVENING STAR has the fullest Local Circulation of any Newspaper in the World. and as an Advertising Medium is worth more than all the other papers published in Washington. an ‘This week's mystery is the question: “What thas become of the crew and passengers of the deserted Danmark?” When discovered the abandoned vesse! was in a frequented route of Ocean travel, anda broken chain hung from her bow, suggesting that at some time in her ‘voyage she had been in tow of another vessel. ‘The general inference has been that her pas- pengers and crew were rescued by a i na which afterward for a time took @ Danmark in tow, and news of their Bafety has been expected in New York very day for some time past. But the ex- ted tidings do not come, and hope is turn- into anxiety and despair. It does not ap- , however, that the case is, as yet, by any ans hopeless. The rescuing vessel may have been a “tramp steamer” bound to some distant port: or the indication of the broken chain may be deceptive, and the persons on the Dan- mark may have abandened her for a sailing vessel, or for the open boats and rafts with Which the Danmark was well supplied. They evidently left the ship deliberately and ina body and intrusted themselves to some vessel or ‘vessels which they believed to be safer than the slowly sinking Danmark. If it should turn out Yhat their choice of alternatives was fatal, and That they left the Danmark, from which they 4would hgve been rescued, only to meet death in their ftail life-boats, the tragedy will be a repe- tition on the water of the Willey House disas- Yer in the White mountains. The dreadful sound of an avalanche of stone, apparently roll- ing down the mountain side upon the Willey House, drove every one of the terrified occu- pants from this building to seek safety else- where. Bat the avalanche divided before reaching the hotel, and while the building was Zntouched every one of the persons who fled from it perished. The abandoned Danmark may be the counterpart of the deserted Willey House, but the fact is not yet ascertained, and hope for the safety of the ocean travellers need not yet be surrendered. es Mrs. Rawson, the divorced wife of the Chi- cago banker, is reported to be about to go on the stage with a play of her own writing, founded on the story of her domestic and other vicissitudes. This is rubbing itin. The pub- lie have had so much more than they want of Mrs. Rawson in real life that it is outrageous for her to force herself upon them in a mimic representation also. When the world comes to be Yegulated as it ought to be there will be a place provided for corralling men and women who have made themselves disagreeably notorious and keeping them out of sight till the rest of humanity has had a chance to rest its eyes on something else for a while and fill its lungs with fresh air. ———- The nearer the day for the opening of the Berlin conference approaches the more per- sistently Prince Bismarck labors to show that it was not he, but.Consul Knappe, who brought about all the troubles at Samoa, Germany, he says, has no proper interest in the domestic af- fairs of the islands. That is good, as as it goes. The next thing we may expect of Prince Brismarck is a command to Consul Knappe to release King Malietoa from captivity and send him back to the throne where he rightfully be- Jongs. _—_—_—— The Countess Festetics, of Vienna, who has jast been made defendant in a divorce suit, is Hot without her share of sensational domestic efperience. She was the daughter of a poor suburban tradesman and « brilliant beanty, and ‘was discovered and married by a stockbroker named Fischer, of common antecedents but some means. Her husband's income enabled her to appear frequently at the theater and other public places, where she fell under the eye of Count Paul Festetics, a young nobleman of ancient lineage, who began a violent court- ship, without the formality of asking permis- sion of her husband. When apprised of the condition of things, however, the latter kindly consented, for a consideration, to step aside and let the lady get a Klausenburg divorce, as it is called there—a form of separation which is not recognized by the Catholic chureh and con- sequently not by the Austrian court, but which is valid in the eye of the civil law. The count, whose family did everything in their power to break off the affair, persisted in his purpose of marrying her, and they have lived very amica- bly ever since, the only apparent impediment to their happiness being the occasional embar- $asements which the indefinite social status of their union has brought upon them, It has ‘been rumored for some time that the countess’s ambition was not satisfied by her present rank, and that she would have no objection to make another expedition to Klausenburg for the sake ofa member of a certain royal house. It is possibly the culmination of such rumors which has brought about the count’s suit, ——————— Distressful snowstorms are the latest visita- tions which have fallen upon Silesia. When the people are not starving to death they are drowned by inundation; and, when the water has gone down, a late April snow comes to blight the crops and freeze the poor cottagers in the thighlands. The poet who thought ‘variety the very spice of life missed a deal of Pleasure by not having the lines of his career cast in this Prussian province. _————— A colored church in Indianapolis is going to feproduce, on its own platform, the scenes of the inauguration of President Harrison, all the gaembers of the administration and their wives represented in the show by members of the congregation. If the President wants ffother outing, let him run back home for an renin, buy a gallery ticket, and get an out- bide view of the inauguration drama. _————— At the rate the poles are coming down in Wew York it is estimated that Broadway will be cleared all the way to Central Park by the end of the week. The New Yorkers are already be- Binning to plume themselves upon their lighter, sirier anda pparently broader street in the ab- Bence of the cloud of overhead wires, $$$ An exhibition of revolutionary relics has been pened in the palace of the Louvre in Paris, ‘The greatest relic of them all is the palace in ‘which the collection is housed. When mobs ond insurgent armies have wrecked everything else worth wrecking in Paris, the Louvre has held its ground. The measure of its antiquity is past calculation, but the primitive building is known to have been in existence as far back as in the seventh century, when King Dagobert reigned.
