Destructive and Fatal Cyclone in Louisiana. * CHICAGO'S INVITATION. SUFFOCATED IN THEIR SLEEP. Five Children Lose Their Lives ina Burning Tenement. ‘New Yorx, March 3.—Five children were suffocated at 8 o'clock this morning in « rear Toom on the top floor of a tenement, 194 Henry street. ‘The names of the victims are: Altman Bernstein, eleven years old; Rebecca Bernstein, ten years old; Hayman Bernstein, six years old; Rachel Bernstein, six months and Fanny Ro-en, seven years old. e children were alone in the room at the time, Parents having left a short time previous, locking the children ‘The cause of the tragedy kerosene stove, which belonged to Mver Membert, who occu- pies the apartments adjoing those of tbe Bern- Stein's with his family. Shortly before 8 o'clock this merning Mrs. Membert attempted to light the stove. It was standing on a table and just as whe applied the match the stove fell to the floor. Immediately an explosion followed. The woman's dress caught fire, but she beat out the flames and with her two children made her escape from the room. The fire swept on into the hallway and up to the roof like a flash. There were about twelve families in the tene- ment, and when the cry of fire was raised all who could rushed for the fire escapes. The firemen soan arrived and helped the frightaned inmates down to the street. The upper portion of the house was soon a mass of flames, and when the firemen tried to force their way to the top tloors they were beaten back by flames and re the blaze had died away and the fire control a wild shriek of a woman came from among the throng in the street. Ina few seconde «half frantic woman came rushing through the crowd to the door of the tenement. It was Mrs. Bernstein, the mother of the four suffocated children. She had been out shopping and the first she learned of the acci- | dent was when she turned into Henry street near her home and saw the flames issuing from the building. She made desperate attempts to dash into the house and it took two policemen to hold her. ‘The firemen went to the Bernstein apartments a8 BOON as ible. and on a bed in a rear room found the four children dead. The fire had not touched the room, but the children had been suffucated as they slept. The firemen continued their search and in | another room on the same floor found the body | of little Fannie Rosen, also suffocated by the | smoke. She, too, had been left alone in the |room while’ her mother went to a nearby | bakery. : | A number of the tenants were slightly injured while escaping from the building. The total | loss by the fire is $5,000. ————— DEATH IN THE GALE. A Terrible Cyclone Sweeps Through = Loulsiana Parish, Manxsvittz, La, March 3—This parish (Avoyelles) was visited Tuesday evening by a errible cylone, which left death and destruc- tion in its wake. Its general course was from west to northwest. Never in the history of this parish has such destruction been seen. Its path presents ‘scene which is indeed pitiful and which baffles description.

He Pays the Penalty of His Crime at Pitts- field, Mass. Prittsrreip, Mass., March 3 —William Coy, the murderer, was hanged in the county jail at 10:43 this nrorning. coY’s CRIME. Wm. Coy came of a shiftless family and in | 1887 he married the divorced wife of Michael Bate. In the summer of 1891 Coy and his wife lived in a miserable shanty in Washington, near the Becket line. Coy worked on the railroad, and one of his fellow laborers, John Whalen of Becket, boarded with him. Whalen became enamored of Mrs. Coy, who was decidedly prepomessing. and won her favor. On Friday, August 28, Mrs. Coy left home, telling her husband she was going to ‘Three Rivers. Her plan was to meet Whalen in Troy the following Monday. Saturday morning Coy learned that his wife hhad spent the night at North Becket and bad left early that morning for Albany. He started in pursuit and at Pittsfield met Whalen, who had been to Lee to collect $800. They drank together and took the 11:35 train for Westfield. They came back from Westfield on the evening train. Whalen, who was badly intoxicated, left the train at Washington, Coy going on to Pittsfield. Whalen went home snd Coy | returned to Washington on the midnight train. He went to the house and killed Whalen with an ax ashe lay on his bed in a | drunken stupor. He cut his throat with the | same weapon, almost severing the head. ging the body from the house he cut off the legs just above the knees, and then carrying the pieces into the woods on the mountains east of the house he buried them in «shallow grave, covering all with leaves. Returning to the house he cut out the blood- stained pieces of the mattress and pillows and carpets and burned them. His wife returned the following Monday. Coy told a companion named Kelly that Whalen had confessed to an intimacy with his wife and had given him $100 and his watch to say nothing about it. Coy and his wife went to Westfield two weeks later, where he secured work d a street car.

The City Extends s Hearty Weloome to the Visitors, FLAGS AND BUNTING Lavish Decoration of Business Houses and of Private Residences Along the Line of the Parade—The Government Bulldings. aa ‘The city has put on ite gals dress in honor of the inauguration. Flags fly from every flag staff and bunting covers in its folds the fronts of the houses and business places. In red, white and blue, and in fact in whatever is ef- feotive in the way of color, the city is garbed for company. The decoration is especially lavish along the line of march from the Capitol to Washington Circle the length of Pennsylva- nia avenue. But on all the streets in the busi- ness section of the city the buildings are deco- rated and throughout the residence section flags fly from the houses. Some of the more notable instances of decoration are given below: TREASURY DEPARTMENT. The decoration of the Treasury building sur- passes anything ever before attempted in that line with that notable structure. The work was done under the supervision of a pomaiteesloriaveaert aie} wilh "Capt Gross of the mint bureau at the head. The size and construction of the building give fine scope for display and it has been well improved. ‘The tall granite pillars on each front are draped at the base with United States fings, ten feet in length, with a large gilt star at the top and garlands of evergreens are suspended between the columns. ‘The cornices are hung with red and white bunting, over which are festoons of evergreefs running around the entire building. At the corners and at intervals along thesides over the cornice are placed wreaths of ever- reens five feet in height. On the roof, over the column, are poles displaying alternately United States ond. revenue fings five by eight feet. Ateach pedestal is a gilded representa- tion of the Treasury shield surrounded with arranged as trophies. e principal ornamentation is an immense star twenty-five feet in diameter containing an elaborate symbolic inting, the chief feature of which is a fe le figure with scales and keys, This star ison the roof directly over the main entrance on 15th street facing F street. The star is inclosed in a frame circle in which are arranged a number of smaller stars rovided with a myriad of electric lights for illumination at night. It is a unique affair and | will undoubtedly attract great attention. It! was prepared on the stage of the National The- | ater under the direct supervision of Artist Pohl | of the Treasury Department. STATE, WAR AND NAVY BUILDING. The decoration of the State, War and Navy Department building is exactly the same as that which made it such an attractive picture dur- ing the Grand Army encampment. The ar- rangement, while simple, is very beautiful in effect and consists solely of drapery formed en- tirely of American flags arranged in the form of shields on the balconies of each of the five floors of the building. Three flags are used in each figureand they are so large and eo numerous that they cover nearly the entire face of the building on each front. These flags are all forty feet in length and are so placed that they nearly join each other. Over the Navy De- partment on inauguration day will fly four naval signal flags, which will tell in naval signal language the very minute that the President- elect has taken the oath of office. The building occupied by the bureau of American republics, at Jackson place and Pennsylvania avenue, is very elaborately deco- rated with large flags representing all the American republics. y are tastefully ar- ranged and present # pleasing variety of color. Peace Monument to Seventh Street. Naturally special attention has been paid to the decoration of buildings along the line of march, and on this occasion, as has been the case on all similar occasions since the inangura- tion of the third President of the United States, historic Pennsylvania avenue will be the scene of tomorrow’s pageant. For the purposes of the parade Pennsylvania avenue begins at the Peace monument, which is surrounded by a handsomely decurated stand. ‘On Ist street facing the Capitot grounds the row of two-storied frames is decorated. Com- mencing on the corner on the quarter gircle, Hayes’ restaurant is well decorated and in or- der—Shafe ‘Then come Mr. Grupe, Joseph Stickell Slagle & Crawford, Joseph Torrens, J. D.

This is especially so regarding the private houses. eee THE LEPERS OF MOLOKAI. Settlements Where Hawalian Sufferers Are Kept. “The Island of Molokai, which holds the leper settlement, in the Hawaiinn group is about eighty miles from Honolulu,” said E. C. Macfarlane, who is assisting the deposed queen's representatives in presenting her case at Wavh- ington, to a New York Times reporter: ‘‘There are about 1,100 wretches who are suffering in all the various stages of the disease at the set- tlement, and whenever a new case is discovered im any of the other islands under the laws of the country the victim is removed to Molokai. ‘There is no help for it. “The sufferers go to the island to associate with others who are stricken like themselves, and there they remain until they die. This period depends much upon the constitution of the unfortunate victim. In most cases it is from four to seven years between the appear- ance of the disease and death. Sometimes it is longer, but not often. “Most of the victims now there are native Hawaiians. A few are Americans. The whites seem much less susceptible to the disease than the natives. A visit to the settlement is full of interest.” Mr. Macfarlane said that he had visited the settlement at Molokai about a year anda haif ‘ago as one of acommittee from the Hawaiian islature and had thus learned something of the life of the lepers, and to gome extent had become familiar with their condition. The disease he did not consider contagious and while the present methods of segregation are in existence there was little or no danger to visitors or to whites who might settle on any of the group of islands making up the ex-queen’s domain. “Itis said that seven years may elapse be- tween the time the leprous poison enters the system and any visible signs of the disease,” said Mr, Macfarlane. ‘“‘When it appears the victim is taken to Molokai, and ceforth is doomed to remain there in circumstances de- pendent much upon hie financial condition and the disposition of his friends and relatives. “Some of the lepers live in fine houses, which they have built with their own means or which have been provided by sympathetic friends. Each of these has his own tract of land to till. fle has books to read. His house is furnished ‘to suit bis taste and all the luxuries of the king- dom are within his reach. The best that the table. He may enter- ly possible with such a limited social circle as the settlement affords. Heyhas nothing to do but wait, with grim death slowly and certainly coming upon him. fhe government is bound to provide for those who have no means. ere are several settlements or villages on the island. and to some extent the sufferers are classified in these. Generally they till the soil, which is a good thing, not only because it gives them something to distract their attention from their own suf- ferings and the sufferings of their associates, but also because it is # healthful thing for them. “The superintendent of the island lives apart from all the patients in a house wurrounded by ahigh stone wall. within which no leper may come. His position is not one which would be sought for by most men, but he need associate very little with the stricken subjects over whom he has control. Physicians and nurses are employed who attend to the wants of the stricken people and they report to the superin- tendent. “One might imagine that this settlement would be a gloomy place, filled with beings who were in abject misery, the abode of suffering, with no sunshine or any bright side to life. ‘This is a mistake, The lepers seem to be happy. Many of them spend their leisure time in gam- bling. They own horses and nearly everybody isan expert rider. They have picnics, gala days and ali manner of celebrations. Thi casual visitor would say they were a happy, easy-going race, who had as much enjoyment as the average of human beings—perbaps more than the average. The visits of the committee from the kt lature are made the occasion of great festiv- ities. The day is looked forward to from the time when it is first announced, and when the & visiting statesmen come they are received with & procession which for picturesque beauty is unsurpassed. ‘The houses are decorated. Every one is at his best. and the visitors are met at e steami landing and escorted to the su- perintendent’s house. “The procession is one of the most peculiar which could be gotten up anywhere. Men, w men end children, all on horseback, make it up, and their costumesare striking and unique. ‘The women ride astride, und they have a style of dress which is not down in any of the Pr intes. ‘They wind about their bodies and legs fong streamers of the most brightly colored fabrics.

Qninn, a well-known New York newspaper man is editor, contains an interesting article on “Should Young Men Go Into Politics?” from the pen of Chauncey M. Depew. Asto whether young men should adopt politios ae a career he answers with an | emphatic “No.” Mr. Depew then goes on to say: “Every young man should start out in life with three definite objects: First, to earn | an honest living; second, to secure an income large and permanent enough to support » fam- ily; and, third, to lay up something for old age and the care of the helpless ones whom he may leave behind when he Rien This excludes, of course, other and obvious efforts in life, and confines the question simply to the material side of success. If a young man enters the pro- fessions, or business, or the trades, and is in- dustrious, intelligent, economical and of good habits and associations, he is sure to rise until, ins less or greater measure, he accomplishes the three objects I have named.” He then says to the reader that the trouble with politics 1s that its pursuit is an adventure and not a career; that the compensation is not sufficient; that promotion is not accorded to merit, but to po'itical influence, and to retain a place requires backers powerful in influence with the party; thst the time will come when the placeholder to a member of the opposite party, Se oe cap, ® family, ugtrained for bi and out of line with the active competitors of the community. Mr. Depew's article closes with the following: “Every young man should be interested in Politics and take asactive a part in the political affairs of his neighborhood as the time at his from his business will permit. He abould belong to some party and ite principles. He should attend its caucuses and do such party service as he can. He should go to political meetings and never fail to vote on election day. When there are movements on foot for reforms necessitated by corruption or to put bad men out of ‘office he should be on hand and ready to fight for the redemption of his city. town or state.

The New Orleans Olympic Club's fistic carni- val opened last night with about 1,500 persons in the hall, which has seats for 6,000 persons William McMillan of Washington, D. C., de- feated William Hines of Providence, R. L. Doxing, and Evan Lewis won the wrestling match from Ernest Roeber. Lewis tipped the | scales at 185 pounds. Prof. Duffy, who acted as referee, announced that the strangle bold was barred. Both men. locked arms and Lewis tripped Roeber to the floor. He at once went to work tosecure his famous hammer lock and half Nelson, from which Roeber squirmed with the lity of a.cat. Roeber acted on the defensive, | lying flat on his ktomach. After two trials the Strangler secured the hammer lock successfully, | the German squirming out of it only to find | himself in the embrace of a full Nelson and leg hold, which brought him to a bridge. Exerting his ponderous strength the | Strangler slowly but surely bore Roeber to the mat, securing the first fall in seven minutes and six seconds. | Both men at the expiration of the minute's | rest locked arms for the Graeco-Roman bout. | At the expiration of ten minutes both men were perspiring freely, as they found that a bold of any kind was difficult to retain. Roeber slipped to the floor, Lewis taking @ stomach clasp, pumping the German's wind. Roeber took a neck hold, but could not main- | tain his advantage. Getting a hold from be- hind Roeber lifted the Strangler from the floor and fell with him, but to no advantage. Both men worked like ‘demons, first one on the top and then the other. Roeber secured a firmly locked “half Nelson’ | and gradually working the Strangler to a bridge wore him down with a shoulder tug, securing the Greco-Roman fall in twenty-eight sain- | utes, twelve seconds, | The third bout, catch-as-catch-can, was | clearly Lewis’ victory in less than thirty sec- | onds. He secured « neck hold and with a| grapevine gave Roeber a fiying fall, landing him squarely on his shoulders, Referee Duffy was not prepared for such | sudden action and failing to sce both points | down disallowed the fall. Lewis finally secured a “half Nelson” hold, | which brought Roeber to a bridge, and then taking a leg hold he crushed the German two points down in 12 minutes and 9 seconds. | The fourth bout was Greco-Roman style. The strangler went to work as thoagh his life depended on ending the bout in five minutes. Roeber, however, won the fall in twenty-four minutes and forty-three seconds. The strangler wing secured the quickest fall had the tion of the deciding bout and chose his favor- ite style—catch-as-catch-can. Lewis went at Roeber like a madman, and securing a neck bold and hip lock gave Roeber a flying fall in one minute and three seconds, winning the final bout and the match for the championship of | the world at mixed styles. | Although the hall hada capacity for 6,000, only about 1,500 were present. Wrestling is | too scientific for the average “‘sport” and con- sequently not popular. THE BASE BALL PLAYERS, Notes About the Men Who Will Wear the | Leather Mitts.

From the Boston Heral!, February Probably no man in Mr. Cleveland's eabinet has made so many sacrifices in taking @ port- folio as Richard Olney. It is something to give up a law practice of the first magnitude—and «law practice of the first Boston maguitude at that—and accept « | salary of $8,000 year. Mr. Olney is probably in receipt of a larger income from bis practice | thau any other New England lawyer Great corporations pay great salaries, He isattorney for three of them. These are the Boston and | Maine railroad, the Chicago, Burlington and | Quincy railroad and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad. He is sixty-seven years old, is apparently in the prime of life and is in the zenith of career. When he was named the other day the usual query of the ignorant was made “Who is Oln It was only the poli- ticians who made it. There is scarcely a man in New England who does not know him by reputation,and he isknown at the bar from ocean to ocean, Mr. Ulney descends from a “fighting” Baptist family. His ancestor implanted the church in America, and other ancestors hewed their way through colonial wars, He is a quiet and studi- ous man, and bas given his time almost unceas- ingly to ‘his profession ever since he was ad- mutted to the bar and tolaw partnership with Judge Benjamin F.

They would have been | pleased with the appointment, but Mr. Cleve- lund gave it to Melville W. Faller and the west. Mr. Olney once ran for attorney general of | Massachusetts, but was defeated. He declined to support the late Gen. B. F. Batler the Inst time he was a democratic candidate for ernor of Maxsachusetts, but at all other times has been identified with the party. He and Gen.
