MADRID, Jan. 12.—Tho wedding fes- tivities of Infanta Maria Teresa, sister: of King Alfonso and Prince Ferdinand, are being shared by all, public fetes royalty indulges in a round of ayety. The civil marriage performed last night had certain brilliant features, but ped an “ Opportuni ‘bought a “Realty Snap” ‘took extra ‘ *Lessons” } d tenia some. “Dost and 1 Birds” portunity ” find World “For Sale” Ads ‘save ighnsre dollars.¢ was of course only preliminany.to the church ceremony, which will be on a scale of magnificence befitting the rank of the contracting parties. The marriage of tho Infanta and Prince Ferdinand is given popular ap- proval in Spain, the young couple being ‘held in high regard by all classes. ‘The bride and bridegroom are cousins and Prince Ferdinand on his marriage becomes a naturalized Spaniard, rece! ing appropriate rank. Inasmuch as he was born in Madrid many already re- gard bim as a Spaniard. Infante Maria Teresa, who Is twenty- three years old, was given much at- tention by the royal matchmakers, the first husband spolken ¢or her when, she |was @ mere girl being the old ~m- peror of Austria. Then for political purposes a union with the son of Don Carlos, the Spanish pretender, was pro- posed. : In May last Prince Chanes of Bour- bon, whose wife was the eMer sister of Infanta Maria Teresa and who died in October, 1904, was mentioned ag the future husband of the Princess. There were not many, however, who favored the alliance, and when, in Ov- tober last, the betrothal of the Infanta and Prince Werdinand was announced, Genetal satisfaction was expressed.

NEW HAVEN, Conn,, Jan, 12.—Word [was brought to Coroner Mix and the polite to-day that on the morning of Jan. 8 between 2 and 5: o'clock, a mys- terious man was seen leaving the yard of the Hiller home, where Charles A. Edwarde was’ shot to death. This news came to the polices and Coroner while [they were preparing their report to (show that Mr. Edwards committed sul- clde, in face of evidence showlng thut he was murdered by some one interested in the estate left by Mrs, Hiller, Ed- wards's mother-in-law. ‘The man who eaw the strahger leaving the Hiller yard is said to live across tne street from the Hiller home, which is at No. 117 College street. The man could only outline the mysterious figure in the fog, but he says that the stranger Appeared to be muffled in a high-col- lared storm goat. Asked why he had not before, the man said that the description he had of him was so vague that he thought it unimportant. Efforts to find the man who is de- clared to heve seen the mysterious figure leaving the Hille home were futile, The evidence on which Coroner Mix bases his suicide theory is gradu- ally coming to light. One of the strong points was revealed after Medical Examiner Bartlett filed the report of the physiclans who con- ducted the autopsy. It has to Yo with the pistol shot. The point in question is this: The bullet fired through the ear of Charles A. Edwards did not pene- trate the skull, but slid around under the scalp, producing only a very trifling wound. The only way death could have been Caused by it would be by apoplexy superinduced by the shock of septicemia. The cause of death was laudanum, and until It is shown that some one forced Mr, Edwards to drink it the Cor- oner will not accept murder. Another point in the evidence con- cerna the laudanum bottle. The bottle was one that Mrs. Abigail Hiller had used for “rock and rye.’ Bhe took rock and rye during the last few days of life, and this bottle was always kept in the om -of Mrs. Bezentson, which was to the left of the back stairs, on the street floor, Mrs. Bezentsn testified that she last saw the bottle a day after Mrs, Hil- ler died, or on Nov. 6. She was not aware that Charles A. Edwards knew of ite existence, The police have practically dropped the case, but the Edwards family will continue to work on the theory that Mr, Edwards was murdered. —-- SEVENTH ANNUAL CONCERT.

CHATHAM, Mass, Jan, 12—Aban- @oned by her crew, the British. barken- the Altona was lying in mid-channel, a mile and @ half west of Pollock Rip Ligittshtp, this forenoon, filled with water and apparently @lmost ready to sink. The crew are at the Monomoy Point Life Baving Station, having come ashore early to-day. The Altona, going too far in during a heavy mist Wednesday night, went ashore on Shovelful Shoal. Yesterday the tug Gypsum King, which was pess- ing on her way to New York with a tow, stopped and pulled the barkentine off the shoal. The tug was asked to take jher in tow for New York, but her cap- \tain refused, fearing that the barken- tine would sink on the way. There were about four feet of water in the hold of the vessel at that time. ‘The crew kept hari at work at the pumps, but at nightfall the water had gained another foot. Despite this fact, and although the members of the crew were considerably worn out from thelr hart work at the pumps, Capt. H. H. Card announced his Intention to at- tempt,to work his way up over the shoals and to reach St, John, N. B,, his destination, Desiring to guard against possible dis- aster, however, Capt, Card arranged with the Monomoy Point Iife-savers to keep a sharp lookout for distress sig- nals. Att 10.90 o'clock last night the surfmen lscerned red fire being burned on the berkentine, which then had proceeded about four miles. The life-savers {m- mediately launched their boat. When they reached the barkentine they found that her crew, numbering ten men, had abandoned the vessel and had loaded their boats with thelr dun- nage. Capt. Card, however, was still on the vessel. The water had gained so. rapidly in the hold of the Altona that the ex- hausted crew had despaired of being able to keep her afloat, Capt. Card entered one of the boats and all came ashore, landing at the Mcnomoy Point Station at apout 2A. M. he Altona was bound from Eliza- bethport, N. J., for St. John, N. B., with 650 tons of coal. —— SHIPPING NEWS, ALMANAC FOR TO-DAY. Sun rises, 7.23/Sun sets, 4.54!Moon rises, 7.13 ‘THE TIDES. High "SSE Low Water, _M, PM Senay, Hoo!
