Several international* engagements are being freely talked about in society, and if they only hold in strength and force until the first frosts of the late fall, the wed- dings will be events of considerable pass- ing interest. The disposition to enter into marriages with foreigners seems to be de- cidedly® on the increase. The most singular part of it, so far as Washington girls are concerned, is that the acquisition of a title in the bargain has little to do with it. Of the five engagements now known to exist, and likely to culnmunate in matrimony, only ene of the fortunate men has a handle to his name or a coronet to offer. The other four, who, keeping up with the march of nations, will be satisfied only with Ameri- can wives, are attaches of various legations and notably those from Spanish-speaking countties. The course of true love in each of these cases has met with the proverbial obstacles, and the quantity of good advice which is being showered on these couples, and incidentally it may be remarked, abso- lutely wasted, is simply prodigious. ‘The general public has in neither instance Leen let into the secret of these engage- ments for many and various reasons, but the chief one would appear to be that the high principals themselves are willing to agree that the stand they have taken is cpen to argument. The whys and where- fcres of the story of these couriships, some of which have been so rapid as to be taken no thought of whatever, and some others so slow and deliberate that any one might suppose every possible poimt has been well Ciscussed, Would make most interesting reading, esp2cially at this time, when real thrilling events are few and far between. The situation at present is such that so- ciety is beginning to separate for the sum- mer with less idea than usual of whether several of Ure diplomats will have achieved matrimony before they meet again at a 5 o'clock tea or whether the dear girls will be still open to proposals, foreign or home grown, notwithstanding the serious heart flutters from which they have been suffer- ing for the last three months. Mr. and Mrs. Covarrubias and family went yesterday to New London, Conn., where the early summer will be spent. The French ambassador and Mrs. Pate- notre sailed for France on Saturday last.

Fatal Accident on the Brightwood Electric Line. There was a fatal accident on the Bright- wood electrie railroad lJast night about 10:30 o'clock, the victim being a colored man named Edward Dodson, who lived at Terra Cotta, and his death was the re- sult of his own carelessness. When he got on the car at Florida avenue he boarded the closed car in front of an open trailer and persons who saw him say his con- duct indicated that he was under the in- fluence of liquor. There were very few passengers on the train, none being in the clo. 1 car. Dodson had the car all to himself, but was not satisfied to remain inside. He remained on the rear platform and just before the car reached Rock Creek Church road, near where Frank Ward was killed, he was seen by Mr. Howard Hhodes, @ passenger, to leave the platform and run along with the car. Mr. Rhodes was standing on the front of the open car and Was looking at Dodson when the latter lifted himself from the ground and swung back toward the platform of the car. He missed his footing, however, and fell in front of the moving trailer. In falling his head was dragged beneath the car and his fee. struck against Mr. Rhodes. The latter shovted to the motorman and con- auctor and the car was stopped as soon as possible, but the heavy car had crushed the man’s head and body, and he was dead before the car could be lifted from him. One of the wheels had passed over his head, cutting open the skull. Several phy- siclans were soon on hend, but there was nething that could be done for the maa except to remove his body from the road Way, and this was done by the police. The body was taken to the morgue and wor\ sent to the corcner. Motorman Schweitzer and Condtctcr Johnson went to the police Station to arswer any charge that might be preferred against them, and this morn- ing they were present at an inquest held over the remains. #e The coroner’s jury heard the evidence in the case and returned a verdict attributing the man’s death to his own carelessness. :——_»—_ Badly Injured. Richard Robinson, a colored man forty- three years old, was seriously and perhaps fatally injured by being knocked off a Brightwood electric car last night. He is a cripple and lives in the northern section of the city. Last evening he went out with some relatives for the ride in the country and was returning home when he met with the accident. Because of the rumber of passengers on the car he had been unable to get a seat with his friends until the car was near Irving street, and then he attempted to go from the rear to the front, where his friends were seated. In doing so he got on the platform next to the other track and struck against one of the troliey poles. The force of the blow Was such as to knock him off the car, and when picked up it was found that he had been rendered uncorscious. His skull was injured and he had also received internal injuries. He was brought in en the car and taken to Freedmen’s Hospital for treatment. ———__. A petition for divorce has been filed by Teresa Agnes Burke against Lawrence F. Furke.
