Criss, commander of the Gighth regiment of unifornfed knights, says of the Yemedy that makes people well: “I commenced using Payne’s celery compound Some time last spring. My trouble was catarrh of (he head and stomach. I used two bottles and ex- Perlenced almost immediate relief. I used many other so-called remedies before using Paine’s cel- ery compound, but none of them did me any good. Ibave recommended the compound io a number of persons who are using it, and it will alwaysbe a pleasure to me to recommend it to the aMicted, as Iam confident from my own experience that there {sno medicine in existence that will build up the broken-down system so quickly as Paine’s celery eompound.” His ts the experience of thousands everywhere.

AND YET ANOTHER. ‘The Ball Players From the City of Culture Walloped by the “Senators.” It wouldn't have been healthy for any one liable to heart failure to see vesterday’s contest between the Bostons and the Washingtons There were too many occasions where one’s heart threatened to stop beating. It was » batting game and there was uo telling when either side would bave » slugging fit. Stivetts pitehed much better than was expected from the reports that had come of his work, yet he was touched up in a manner that sustained the reputation won by the local men as hitters. The Washingtons earned a majority of theiz runs ‘and the two errors made were on difficult chances—Wise failed to field a badly bounding grounder and Duryea slipped when trying to field a bunted ball. os Remembering Duryea’s work in last Satur- day's game ut New York, there was general dis- may when it was found that he was in the box. But be happily disappointed expectation. True, be was wilder in his delivery than the law allows, but he was not as wild as was ox- pected, and he led the team at the bat, making two singles and a double. We certainly have @ quartet of hard-hitting pitchers. There’snot ove of them but is liable to bit the ball at any time. Of course, Duryea is likely to improve. Asevery one knows, his greatest. weakness is his wildness. This all the pitchers will endeavor to overcome, for Capt. O'Rourke is a pro- nounced enemy of bases on balls. “There is nothing,” he says, “that disheartens the field to much. They ‘would. much rather bave its made.” But the average pitcher wouldn't. As usual the local men began ran-getting in the first. Radford reached first on Tucker's muff of Lowe's assist. He stole second, was sacrificed to third and scored on McCarthy’ muffing Larkin’s fly. A.single, a base on balls and two sacrifices scored two runs in the first for the visitors. fielding kept the home team from scoring in the second, although they had aman on third with only one out, but in the third they forged away ahead. Wise took first on balls, Larkin hit for a base, Farrell was given his base. With the bases fuli Sullivan bit paet second and three runs came in. Duryea one in the vicinity of the bulletin board and Sullivan scored, and Jim came in with the fifth run on Radford’s long drive to center. Things looked pretty eafe,but not entirely so. Stivetts’ three-bagger between Radford andHoy, followed by asacrifice, made the score six to three ein the fifth. In the next the local men let out another link. O'Rourke reached first on forc- ing out Hoy. Wise helped him along with a safe drive to left. A sacrifice aided them both and Farrell's drive past second scored both. ‘The Bostons, however, were not yet done up. They responded with two more. ‘Two singles and « triple brought in two runs. Three singles, asacrifice and a base on balls gave the home team two more. It was spurt for spurt, a very retty fight, with the chances favoring the me team. In the same inning the visitors gave every one the shi by rolling up four runs and nearly tieing the game. It was their final art. They worked every point. ‘Tommy cker on the coaching lines gave a vocal dis- play that would have been a credit to a basso profundo in a comic opera company. Had ‘any of the patients in Freedman’s Hospital been subject to nervousness they must have had fits during that “iucky seventh.” Even tho in perturbable Duryea was not proof against it and sent three men to bases on balls,two of whom were afterward scored by safe hits. It looked as though the game was lost. The pes- simistic announced with conviction, “They get the game right here.” Thereupon there was meral condemnation of O'Rourke for putting E Duryea. It is to the life-long credit of the home team that they didn’t become rattled. But they played the inning without an error. ‘Three singles and a hit to Sullivan that cannot be classed as an error or as a hit followed and four runs came in. Tucker was at the bat and McCarthy on first. The big first baseman hit to Sullivan, who caught the ball and waited for Wise to cover second to make a double play. Wise failed to reach the base, and Sullivan stood with the ball in his band and runner and bats- men were safe. Wise evidently expected Sulli- yan to cover second himself and make the throw to first. The visitors failed to reach second after that. Duryeasettled down and the Bostons went out in one, two, three order. Larkin won applause by a remarkably fine catch of Mulvey's high throw in fielding Duffy's hit in the eighth, and Hoy caughta fly from MeCarthy’s bat over in left field which caused the bleachers to roar. Meanwhile the local men had shot their bow and went out on easy chances. But the margin in Washington's favor, only one, was so narrow that no one felt easy ‘until Ganzell’s hit to Sullivan forced Tucker out in the ninth atsecond base and ended the game.

OTHER LEAGUE GAMES. ‘The Philadelphia team broke their string of hard luck by defeating the Baltimores yester- day. Their stick work in the second inning gave them a lead of three runs, which eventu- ally won them the game. Wadsworth pitched for the home team and his slowness seemed to intimidate his backers, and he was hit hard.

All the wiseacres condemned the captain. Sullivan should have fielded Tucker's bit in the seventh himself and thrown to first. He could have reached second as soon as Wise and would have gained the time required to make the throw. Credit was inadvertently given Morse, the Boston base ball writer, yesterday for remarks in the Boston Globe about old Boston players here. Mr. John H. Doyle bas been writing the interesting reports lately sent to the Globe. ‘The Washington team has more than pleased the patrons of the game in that city and should continue to make it warm for all teams paying the capital a visit. When Uncle James 0’ Rour! takes his boys on the road the going will not be so very pleasant and the Senators will hit the ground with a thud.— Boston Globe. Well,we'll see. Frank Foreman has signed with New York. Talk about Cincinnati giving Mullane or Mur- phy to New York for Kelly is-all bosh. Boston still has control of Kelly. He cannot go else- where without Mr. len’s consent. Boston may be willing to take Mullane for K ‘his scandal about Mullane's throwing game in a fit of temper is not believed by judi- cious base ball writers. President Young takes no stock in itand there was no one yesterday in the press stand who credited the story. The series beginning today are: Washington at Baltimore, New York at Philadelphia, Boston at Brooklyn, Cincinnati at Chicago, Louisville at Pittsburg, Cleveland at St. Louis. The Chicagos will play their first game uf the season at home today. Ewing's arm may be lame, but his legs seem to ve sound. He has stolen twelve bases thus far this season. In the three games just played with Philadel- phia the Orioles made 20 runs, 35 hits, 8 errors, while Philadelphia made 17 runs, 29 hits and 8 errors. Georgetown College defeated the Naval Acad- emy at Annapolis yesterday by a score of 26 to7. Brown University defeated Yale at Provi- dence yesterday by the score of 2 to 0. Harty Wright says: “The Baltimores have a good team. ‘They fleld and bat well, and what is more, they will improve as they become more seasoned.” The pitchers today will probably be McMa- hon and Esper. ‘The Baltimores play here tomorrow and it will be ladies’ day. It will be the last game here for over two weeks, during which time the club plays the other eastern clubs. Lookout S THE DERBY. The Son of the Great ‘Troubadour First Over the Churchill Downs, The nineteenth of the long line of honored winners of the Kentucky derby was crowned yesterday and his name is Lookout. He won it grandly, leading his field from start to finish and sweeping under the wire untouched by whip or spur, and with his noble neck arched under a strong pull. Troubadour, the winner of the big eastern handicap and the conqueror of the Bard and every other good horse of hi day, can look upon his young son with pride, asone who adds glory even to his honored name. Plutus made a noble struggle for the prize, but it was not in his weaker nature to beat the son of the Troubadour. Boundless, under whip and spur, was close behind Plutus. Buck Me- Cann was next in line, throwing dust in the eyes of Mirage, with Linger trailing far behind, an ingnominious last. Time, 2394, which was fast for the condi- tion of the track. The stake was worth €3,740 net. ‘Twenty thousand is a fair estimate of the multitude which saw Lookout crowned with the laurels which means for him a future life of ease and honor—and after death a place in the Walhalla of equine heroes. ‘The starters and riders were as follows: Look- out (Kunzel}, Boundless (R. Williams), Buck MeCann (Thorpe), Plutus (A. Clayton), Linger (Martin) and Mirage (L Murphy). The betting was: Cushing & Orth’s entry. Boundless and Lookout,7 to 100; Buck MeCann, 10 to 1; Linger, 15 to 1; Plutus, 4 to 1, and Mirage, 6 to 1. JOE GODDARD'S MISFORTUNES. On the Heels of His Defeat His Earnings of Years Are Swept Away. New Yorx, May 11.—When misfortune over- takes a pugilist it generally appears to come all inaheap. If not in all cases, such is the case with Joe Goddard, the Australian boxer. When the Australian first landed in 'Trisco he saw nothing but gold staring him in the face. “I'll be blowed if this ain't God's country,” he was heard to remark. For a while Goddard was very lucky in his half dozen fights, and by careful saving ho managed to lay up quite a snug sum that he hoped some day to invest in a hotel in Sidney. After each fight he would immediately send his winning to Australia, where it was placed in a bank for safe keeping. Everything went alon smoothly for the barrier champion till hestruc up against Denver Smith, who managed to get the decision over him after a hard struggle. Goddard took his defeat to heart. His re- verse at the hands of Smith was the first he had sustained in his most remarkable pugilistic ca- As a rule, Joe always backed himeclf very heavily,and, as a result, lost several thou- sand dollars on the fight. In addition to being a defeated man and in a bad way physically, he received word a few days ago from his attorne: in Australia informing him that the bank in which he had placed all his money—something like #70,000—had failed. What makes it p ticularly hard is the fact that Goddard made every dollar of his money either by fighting or in the street contracting business. Not only he now down in the world of pugilism by rea- son of his defeat, but he is a ruined man finan- cally. Goddard says he will start all over again to build up another fortune by punching other “pugs” beads. Johnny Van Heest has issued a challenge to George Dixon, the colored foather-weight ion, to fight for 2.500 a side and the vazette trophy and championship. Van ct acker deposited $500 forfeit with the Police Gazette yesterday. Yale's Crew May Go Abroad. Ex-Capt. Robert J. Cook of the Yale crew arrived at New Haven from Philadelphia yes- terday. He called the Yale oarsmen together immediately after bis arrival and took them own the harbor for practice. The object of Cook's visit is to consult with the sey- eral alumni directors of the Yale navy in refer- ence toa trip abroad by the American cham- pion crew this summer. Several other promi- nent Yale alumni are expected and important plans are to be placed before them in reference to the project. The offer of Editor Pulitzer will be brought before them, but there is little chance of its acceptance. Cornell Nine to Play Here Tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon Cornell's strong nine will cross bats with the Georgetown College men. ‘The contest should be a fine exhibition of amateur ball playing, and will no doubt at- tract a good-sized crowd. It is unfortunate that the game was not fixed for today or Sat- urday. when there is no conflict with a profes- sional game. This afternoon Cornell plays the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelph The game tomorrow will be played at the Y. M. C. A. Park at the corner of 17th and U streets. In Johnson Cornell probably has one of the best college fielders. He is a yalna- ble general player and will share the time in box with Priest. Of last year's team there are Young, Taylor, Rich, Towl and Priest playing this With Priest in the box, Johnson will play at third base, but when Johnson goes pitchers the third base’is weak. Pony Racing Begun at the Benning Track. ‘The inauguration of the fifth annual meeting here under the rules of the American Hunt and Pony Racing Association at the Benning track this afternoon was attended with perfect weather and a no less perfect track. A. well- filled card of six races served to attract the best atterdance in the history of such races here, the infield containing many carriages, while the grand stand and club house balcony was hardly less well filled with people promi- nent in the official and social circles of the capital. The Marine Band was one of the at tractions of the afternoon, adding greatly to the pleasure of the occasion. Cartwright Matched Against Stannard. Ned Cartwright of Washington, who was re- cently knagked out by John (Long) Stannard of Wilmington, Del., in two minutes and three seconds, went to Wilmington yesterday and made arrangements fora return fight. The mateb is for $200 a side, open to $500 and a urse of £600 subscribed by Wilmington sport- men. The fight is to be at 190 pounds. It will take place in July within 100 miles of Wilmington. Carroll Institute Bowling. The second and final series in the bowling tournament of the first class at the Carroll In- stitute was bowled last night and Kane won.

The Spray Eager to Meet the Hustler. Mr. Arthur Gardiner writes regarding a re- cent statement relative to the yacht Hustler: In your issue of the 8h I noticed an article in which the yacht Hustler is said to have caused quite a sensation on the river front Sun- day by outeailing all crafts of her description she encountered. In contradiction to this statement I would say that I was aboard the Spray when she is credited with having had a ‘brush’? with the Hustler. It is but fair to say that the Spray was not in racing trim, nor did her owners know that the Hustler was “out for prey.” As wo the Spray seeking anchorage, I would state that she had boen out all the night before, and consequently her owners were desirous of mak- ing home. If the Hustler will condescend to once more assume her racing “clothes” the Spray will be glad to do her the honors, Sherman Practicing Daily. Much interest is being taken generally in the coming pool match between Sherman of this city and Manning of New York.

Suicide of an Actor Because His Sweetheart Flirted With a Man in the Andience. The theater at Lemberg. the capital of Aus- trian Galicia, was the scene Tuesday night of @ most tragic occurrence. Suddenly Herr Delezuk, one of the actors, drew a revolver, placed the weapon to his head and blew out his brains, The greatest excitement followed. It was sub- sequently learned that Herr Delezuk’s act was caused by jealousy of a young cms in the company. During” the play he detected her flirting with « man in the stalls. He upbraided the girl, but she laughsd and resumed the flirtation. Deeply enraged, Delezuk walked close to the foot- lights, and, out a word, killed himself. FROM AFFLUENC! TO POVERTY. ‘The Sudden Fall of Henry Allen, the Broker and Ex-Reporte: “Holland. * New York Cor. of the Phila. Press. James R. Keene is reported to have said that “Jim Waterbury will not be taking so many yachting trips this summer as he did last year,” and if Mr. Keene had not been very wise and learned from his experience in the Chicago grain corner when it is well to get under cover it is quite likely that he too would be unable to enjoy the summer pleasures which he has in contemplation. Mr. Keene made a great deal of money, according to report, at the time the Cordage Company was rising on the market, and in fact he and Deacon White were credited with manipulating the bull movement, Mr. Keene foresaw some time ago what Wall Street had a apectacle of last Friday. and satis- fied with profits he withdrew. Had he not learned wisdom, very likely he would have been in the position’ in which Menry Allen found himself last week, for it was to Henry Allen's house that the Cordage people transferred their accounts after an intimation from Mr. Keene, according to report, that he preferred to give his time to other business, Allen had been making money hand over fist. He came here from Kentucky a few years ago, with ambition to do great things in the New York markets. He had been a newspaper reporter in Louisville, and was able after a few years to bring to his house the business of some of the heaviest manipulators of industrial stocks. In his place were to be seen every day those who were thought to be insiders in the lead trust, and the sugar people congregated there. It became the conspicuous house for industrial dealings on the bear side last winter, and some of the-stories of Allen's earnings and the coolness with which he flung great blocks of stock upon the market day after day in order to break prices were quite as exciting as any of the romances of the street. His manner was not that of the conventional Wall street broker. He was not irritable and nervons like Jim Keene or jovial and with con- stant joke upon his lips like Deacon White or loquacious like Henry Clews, but was the most phlegmatic of men in his manner. He had re- vealed such wisdom in bis dealings early in the winter that the very fact that he had under- taken the bull movement for the Cordage peo- ple gave confidence to some of the speculators. The story of his failure is dramatic. He found upon the day before the crash that tho Cordage people owed him $400,000. He went to them, demanding 225,000 within an hour. He found them apparently perfectly cool. with @ wonderful simulation of surprise that he should make such demand, and they said with the manner of men who have millions at di posal that on the following morning as soo: the banks were open he should have that sum of mot Whether they did it so that Mr. Allen should not pass a sleepless night, or whether they really thought they could secure that sum, Mr. Allen does not know. Atall events, the next morning they sent him word and acurt brief message, that the money would not be forthcoming; and so this man who @ week ngo was reputed to be worth $500,000 and who had [eed a singular repute for shrewdness found that his day of doom had come. He stood it with forced calmness. Yet Teaw him riding on the elevated upon the east side where there were none of his acquaint- ances, his head nodding upon his breast like ‘one completely exhausted. Allen met the fato which would have been Jim Keene's had Mr. _— not learned wisdom by his bitter expe- ience. ee Sudden Death of a Pugilist’s Wife.

SWIFT SPEcIFIO Compa: Atlant Ga, SOMETHING WAS HELD BACK. Harris Said to Have Written Another State- ment. Allan Harris, brother of Carlyle Harris, yes- terday at Albany expressed the opinion that his brother prepared a longer and more detailed statement than that published yesterday morn- ing, but that it contained things that the prison authorities desired to suppress. Yesterday morning be got at the department of state prisons the original manuscript of the last statement written by his brother. He then visited Pardon Clerk Joyce ut the executive chamber and took away with him the petition | ing. left with the governor by Wms. F. Howe asking for clemency for Harris. He said: “My mother read the statement in the papers this morning and was rised at the brevity of it Carl er a great mass of matter when she made her last visit and told her he would not trouble her to read it then, but would request the warden to give it to her after his death. This state- ment must have been written later, when he was told that his other statement could not go out to the world.” When the envelope containing the alleged statement, as given out to the press, was re- ceived at the prison superintendent's office it was very bulky. The clerk explains this bj saying that the regular papere filed after ead execution were init. But that is not true, be- cause the papers are never filed inside of n week, the result of the autopsy having to be added before it is mailed by the warden. It is s curious fact that the papers were taken up and shown to Gov. Flower before the copies for the press were made. Itis eafe to assert that several papers written by Harris will never see the light of day. Mrs. Harris and her son left for Northfield by the afternoon train. A ROMANCE IN THE “‘ToMES,”” The New York Herald printa the following: Carlyle W. Harris was the bero of @ romance while he was awaiting death in the Tombs prison, Agirl who met him by chance one Sunday in one of the gloomy corridors fell in love with him, visited him daily and fondly awaited the moment of his relense, when she expected that he would marry. Her devotion to him was as great as his mother's, and she is believed to be the “young woman dressed in deep mourning” who accompanied Carlyle Harris’ “cousin, M. Hill,” alias “Edward Morrill,” from New York to Albany, and attended the faneral of the executed criminal. At the “Tombs” the girl called herself “Carrie Jones.” That was not her real name. ‘Nina Van Zandt’s mad marringe to August Spies, one of the condemned Chicago an chists, Waa not nearly os “peculiar” eo “Car Jones'” infatuation for the convicted murderer. Miss Van Zandt was not promised in marriage to any man when she fascinated the anarchist leader and married him in his cell beneath the very shadow of the gallows. Yet the girl who offered herself in marriage to Harris deliber- ately broke an engagement of marriage with a worthy and estimable young man in order to become the afianced bride ofa man who had been indicted for stealthily administering vison to his school-girl-wife so that she died. fer only excuse was that in him she had found her affinity. WHEN THE AFFAIR BEOAS. As nearly as any one about the Tombs can remember, the gruesome love affair began some time early in December, 1891. “Carrie Jones” had visited the gloomy old prison with a band of young women and a few young men who had volunteered to cheer the inmates by sing- ing hymns to the accompaniment of a smail organ. Miss Jones was apparently fascinated by the handsome, plausible, soft-voiced young prisoner. She lingered longer than any of her com- panions and Harris’ protestations of innocence aroused her to enthusiasm in bis behalf. She returned to the Tombs with the band of singers ‘on the following Sunday. Somehow with the | help of that diplomacy which only women un- | derstand, she managed to enjuy ten minutes of | conversation with Harris alone. Shrewd and clever as he was it did not take him long to discover that she was infatu: with him. When she asked whether he would see her if she called some time before the next Sunday, he answered that he would be charmed to receive her us best he could amid his poor. wretched surroundings. “Mins Jones” called on the condemned wife poisoner the next day. She no longer wore the diumond set ina strip bf gold that marked ber as the nffianced bride of another man. She had told her promised husband very plainly that she could never marry him because she loved another, BELIEVED IN HARRIS’ INNOCENCE. Perhaps the strangest part of “Carrie Jones’” strange love for Harris was her blind belief in his innocence. She attended nearly every day of his trial. She heard most of the evidence upon which twelve unprejudiced jurymen founded their verdict of guilty of murder in the first degree, yet she only clung to Harris all the firmer. When he was removed from the upper tier of cells down to the ‘condemned row" in the Tombs she began to call upon him every day. ‘They talked in whispers for hours. Whether the proposed marriage to him or whether he, with unbounded faith in his good fortune, asked her to be his wife is a secret which now rests in her keeping alone. But it is certain that the pair became engaged to be married. Mrs. Harris frequently saw her son in the “counsel room” of the prison during Warden Osborne's administration. “Carrie Jone it is said, the same privilege occasionally. when Warden Fallon took charge of the city prison, he changed all that, Harris was never taken to the “‘counsel_room" except to consult with his counsel. From this time the lovers met in the corridor of ‘condemned row,” where they were still happy in each other's company. HER APPEARANCE. ‘Those who have seen the girl scores of times describe her as of more than medium beight, slender form and medium complexion, Her skin was not especiaily dark, but her hair, they say, was of raven blackness, Above the tem- ples there were a few strands of white among the black locks, those premature marks of age that occasionally fall upon the heads of young women. Her age was somowhere between twenty-three and twenty-seven, She had ap- parently enjoyed good surroundings all her life. She was intellectual without Priggisbness, and her manners were refined and charming. In the presence of Harris, howevor, all reserve forsook her. She seemed to forget all about the presence of strangers. ‘Carrie Jones” pala her last visit $0 Parsi after Rooorder Smyth had refused to grant him a new trial.

Gen. Howard Tslke Entertainingly to the New Jersey Association. ‘Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. East Onanor, N. J., May 10, 1898. The New Jersey Association of Congrega- tional Churches resumed its sessions this morn- The discussion of foreign missions and evan- gelistic work by pastors occupied the morning session. In the afternoon the twenty-fifty anniversary was appropriately commemorated. A number of short uddresses were listened to, notably among these being those of Maj. Gen. 0. 0. Howard and Dr. Otis F. Presbrey of Public Opinion. Gen. Howard told of the struggles which the pioneers of Congregationalism had in order that they might plant a church of that denomi- nation in this city. Dr. Presbrey spoke of theremarkably healthy and rapid growth of Congregationalism in Washington ‘and predicted a steady increase, and an address by Rev. A. E. Dunning con- cluded the afternoon program. In the evening Mra, Alice May Scudder of Jersey City delivered an address on the sub- ject “Christian Endeavor a Mighty Power in Our Churches.” Two illustrated sermons by Rev. C. H. Pat- ton of Westfield, N. J.,and Rev. E. A. Law- rence of Baltimore, Md., concluded the even- ing’s program. A resolution of thanks to the church and people which had entertained the assuciation was then adopted, and the association ad- journed, J. B.S. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS THE CAT. “Harry Gilfoll Perfect Imitation De- ceived the Humane Ladies of Philadelphia. ‘The manager of “A Trip to Chinatown,” now in Philadelphia, received yesterday a letter from the president of the Woman's Branch of the Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, in which mention was made of a complaint received of cruel treatment ad- ministered toa kitten in the performance of that farce. “We understand,” the letter went on, “that the kitten is brought upon the stage and swung around by the tail and by one paw and that it cries piteously.” The society's representative, who delivered the letter, was taken behind the scenes, were he loarned that the “piteous ry” at, the end of the first act is an imitation given by Harry Gilfoil (Frank Graff of this city), and that the kitten which Burt Haverly swings by the tail when he rushes on the stage at that time isa “property” kitten. Whereupon the representative of the society said: “The laugh is on us, but I think it would be n good idea to say on your program, ‘This is not a real kitten, soe ON A ROOF WITH AN EPILEPTIC. ‘Terrible Struggle of Five Men in Buftalo— Chloroform Wins the Day. While Albert Aminer was painting a sign on the seven-story Howard building in Buffalo esterday afternoon he was taken with an epileptic fit, People in the street were attracted by his strange actions, and vome men procceded at once to the top of a neighboring stable, from which it was thought he could be rescued by means of a Indder. When they reached the roof they found that Aminer by some means had lowered himself to the stable roof. The question of getting him to the’ground was puzzling. Finally he was tied to an ambu- lance stretcher, and the pamter’s tackle was ar- ranged 80 as to lower him to the ground. At this moment the man began to struggle so wildly that it was deemed unsafe to lower him and he was unstrapped. He was then taken toa little opening in the roof, from which it was proposed to make the descent by means of an insecure ladder. As they began to carry him down he suddenly hurled the five men away from him and rushed to the edge of the roof. The thrilling scene which followed was witnessed by hundreds in the streets below. The five men were unable to hold him. Several times he almost precipitated himself and them to the ground. The crowd on the ground grew wildly ex- cited. At last a physician soaked some cotton in chloroform, and when the man succumbed he was lowered to the street. His condition ix critical. ——_-e+-___ Uneuecessful Attempt at Suicide.

Monarchs Acknowledged Joseph Francis’ Services to Mankind. Joseph Francis, news of whose death was tele- graphed to yesterday's Stan, was born in Bos- ton, March 12, 1801. He was eleven years old when he conceived the idea of building a life- boat, The venture was the first that bad been attempted and it wasa success. Few men have been accorded the honors which he subsequently received as his inventions took more and more useful form. He was knighted by the Emperor Napoleon, who also gave him a gold snuff box which bears the imperial initialandcrown set in blue enamel and formed by eighty-six diamonds, valued at 17,500 francs, ‘The Emperor of Austria also crowned bim with honors after an exhibition of his boat at Vienna and after a similar exhibition in Rus- sia. Emperor Alexander II conferred upon Mr. Francis the badge of the knighthood of Saint Stanislaus. Medale of honor and diplomas of merit were presented to the young inventor everywhere. A $3,000 gold medal was also presented to him in this country two years ago by an act of Congress. He was requested by the Secretary of the ¥ to go to Portsmouth navy yard and build ooden lifeboats tor the frigate Santee and the battle sbip Alabama. He obtained great repu- tation for the construction of life-saving appli- ances. Of the lifeboats the first that he made was of wood and was caked “The Hydrogen” lifeboat. The interior was fitted with copper and the invention proved successtul. During his experiments he discovered the superiority of metal over wood,and to Mr. Francis may be conceded the first use of iron floating vessels. His first metallic life car was invented in 1842, and was instrumental in sav- ing manv lives. His first perfect metallic life car was placed on the coast of New Jersey, near Long Branch, in the autumn of 1849, at his own expense, the government refusing to aid him in auy way. The boat was not called into use until Janu- ary, 1850, when the British emigrant vessel Ayrshire was wrecked on Squam Beach ina vio- lent winter storm. There were 201 persons on board, and 200 were saved by means of the life car. Mr. Francis extended the application of corrugated metal to the building of steamers, floating docks, harbor buoys and pontoon wagons, and his inventions were adopted by every civilized country.
