A Claimant of an Immense Fortune
The Bessarabian News publishes the
following extraordinary story of an
immense fortune shortly to be claimed
from the Bank of England. Accord
ing to thte circumstantial statement,
the widow of a rich English .lew,
Ovsky Levi, deposited her capital in
the year 1804. This capital, with its
interest, now amounts to 600,000,000
roubles, or 00,000,000. The Kewi
says that numeious claimants have
from time to time appeared, but only
one, an American lady, Miss Jlumerlc,
succeeded lately in proving her title
to one forty-fifth part, the whole oi
the remainder going to a Russian sub

wife of a jeweler at Ismail, at the
mouth of the Danube. According to
the News she has only io produce cer

Duke Michael of Russia was visiting
Paris, and chanced to dine in the com
pany of Rosa Bonheur, the great ani
mal painter. They got on very well,
and at dessert tliey ate a "Phlfopena"
together that is to say, they shared a
double almond. But the Duke, when
next day they met, forgot to say
'Thilopena,". and lost the bet He
asked the artist what present he should
give her, and she replied, laughingly:
"Any animal that would do to paint;
something pretty, you know."
The Duke smiled and departed.
Nothing more was heard of him, and
the lady had quite forgotten the whole
affair, when some months afterward,
the royal forfeit arrived to-wit, three

A New Dancing Grip.
The Philadelphians are astonishing
the people in general by exhibiting
their latest fad in the way of dancing.
It is known as the "crab-claw grip,"
and is most suitable for the waltz.
The gentleman places his right arm
around his partner, putting his hand
as high as possible between her shoul
ders. She elevates her left arm until
it is at right angles with her body and
bends her arm until her fingers rest on
her shoulder instead of her partner's
arm. With his left hand he takes
hold f her right wrist, her right arm
being in a similar position to her left,
and holds it nearly tinder her chin
with her hand flapping. After this
position has been secured they pro
ceed, in true Philadelphia style, to
dance without any regard to the mu
siclans.

His Holiness Foresees mn Inevitable
Crista to Which the Crashing; Mili
tary Charges of European Coon
tries Are Bringing- Them and
Points Out the Mean by
Which to Escape It.
Paris, May 9. From authentic In
formation it would appear that tha
pope is preparing an encyclical to the
European nations on the inevitable
crihis to which the crushing
military charges condemn them,
lie will call the attention of tha
masses to the necessity of intro
ducing the idea of pacification into
their general policy, as well as the
appeasement of the anger of the work
ing classes consequent upon their mis
ery. He will ask for a resolution of
the question of disarmament, which,
may be the result of an agree
ment come to In his inter
view with the emperor of Ger
many. The governments of Austria,
Italy, Spain, Belgium nnd Russia - are
said to be already informed of the
agreement and are willing to accept
it. Russia has made certain reserves,
but it intends, it is believed, to adhere
to the general decision, in which case
she would bo charged with the mission
of bringing pressure upon Franco to
induce her to join the other nations. .
A TERRIBLE WRECK,
Ten Men Meet Instant Death on the Blf
four at Lafnyette, IndL
Lafayette, Ind., May One of
the most horrible wrecks in the his
tory of railroading occurred on the Bigf
Four road in this city at 1:15 yesterday
morning, as a result of which ten men.
are now dead and eleven more injured.
The train was the east-bound passen
ger leaving Chicago at 9 p. m. The
accident was caused by the failure of
the air brakes to work. The engineer
undoubtedly discovered this before
reaching the cut beyond the Wabash
river, as vigorous whistling of the
engine for brakes could lie heard when
the train was still a mile east of tha
city. The engineer's desperate efforts
to stop the train was shown by the
large amount of sand thrown by him
on the bridge through which the train
came just before the fatal crash.
The engine dashed out of the bridge
over the Wabash river at a speed of
not less than sixty miles an hour,
crashing into the depot building and
carrying off a portion of the depot
and train sheds several hundred feet.
The engine when it left the track, fol
lowed by the baggage car, two postal
cars and express car, was piled in one
promiscuous mass, a total and com
plete wreck, burying a score or more
of victims in the awful pile Several
victims of the wreck were persons
standing in the depot waiting for the
train, amt vliem a huckman, a mall
cart driver and some passengers.

bill be retained without alteration.
This provides for the retention of Irish
members in the imperial parliament.
The speaker ruled that the Instruc
tions to the committee on the home
rule bill offered by Lord Randolph
Churchill and others a view of de
feating the bill, were out of order.
The house then went it,o committee
on the home rule bill, when Joseph
Chamberlain moved to postpone
clause one of the bill, which simply
provided that on and after the ap
pointed day there should be a legisla
ture in Ireland. This brought on a
sharp discussion between Gladstone,
Chamberlain, Balfour and the Union
ists. Chairman Mellor put an end to the
squabble by calling the disputants to
order and Mr. Chamberlain's amend
ment was rejected.
