UNIQUE EP1TAH - IN GOLD Other Novel Provision In (he Will of a Chlcaaro "Sleeping Brnntr." "There shall bo inscribed upon my tomb In German and In large golden letters this epitaph: 'Here lies the Bleeping Beauty.' " Tills was one of the odd provisions In the will of Mrs. Alwln Schaeffer, which was filed for probate In Chicago recently. She was 46 years old and died two weeks ago. She was the divorced wife of Henry Schaeffer, a well known Chicago hotel man. v Mrs. Schaeffer disposes of $30,000 and practically all of It, except small annuities to brothers and nephews living In Magde burg, Germany, Is to be devoted to the pur pose of giving festivals for the German Protestant, Bohemian and German-American orphan children tn this city. The will provides that a "Weeping willow tree, and a tombstone, the two not to ex ceed $500 In cost," be placed above her grave. It Is also requested that Mrs. Schaeffer's poodle dog, "Lottie," be given to "one of the richest families- in the city," and that $2 a week be set aside for the dog's mainte nance. The story of tha woman's remarkable taste as to tombstone epitaphs dates back to her childhood In Germany. In that country originated the world-wide fairy tale of "the sleeping beauty," who was rescued by the gallant knight from her castle after he heroically had made his way throogh the growth of thorns. The German name of the story Is "dornen roeschen,", the literal translation for which Is "thorn roses." "Mrs. Schaeffer used to tell of the time when she was a child and played the part of 'the sleeping beauty," In one of the chil dren festivals. She was then proclaimed the beauty of her native town, Magde burg," said Emit H. Schintz. 130 Randolph street, a real estate dealer, who transacted business for her and has known her for years. I It Is provided in the "will that Leo Korets shall be sole trustee, "without bond." It requests that he shall look after the celebrations for the orphan children. These will be two In number each year. They are to be patterned after those of Germany, as follows: The children shall meet In the morning at some church for services. - Next they will be taken to some park, where they will picnic for the day and shall witness the child production of "Dornen-roeschen" ("The Sleeping Beauty"). On each festival day awards of $25 each to the orphan boy and girl averaging high est in school grades for a specified time will be presented. Prises costing from 60 cents to $1 each will be drawn by the children. 'Two bands of ten pieces each, one of Germans and tha other of Americans, shall furnish music. The trustee Is to be given tha widest latitude In elaborating on the plans for the festivals. August 1 Is set for one festival. Mr. Schaeffer got a divorce In tha su perior . court September 29, 1M. The will expressly states that neither the divorced huaband nor any of his relatives shall share In the estate. Chicago Tribune. YARDS A COMMON CARRIER Derision of Jadae T: C.

Feb. 23.-An official announcement was made today by the min istry of the Interior concerning the plot which was discovered and frustrated two days ago by the police, the object of which was the assaaslnatton of Grand Duke Nicholas Nlcholalvltch, second cousin of Emperor Nicholas, and commander of the imperial guard, and M. Chtcheglovltoff, the minister of justice. The details correspond to those already given In these despatches. The oficial announcement ascribes the attempt directly to the social revolutionary party, whose terrorist association was re organized in May of last year, after hav ing been allowed to relapse after the con gress hold In Finland In the spring of 1906. At the une of reorganization the sum of $10,000 monthly was assigned for espionage and the preparation of bombs and other in struments of death. The group to which the execution of these latest crimes was entrusted Is officially designated as the "mobile fighting detachment of the north ern district." Surprise Over Victims. The selection of Grand Duke Nicholas and M. Chtcheglovltoff for assassination haa occassloned some remark, as neither the grand duke nor the minister has been prominent In repressive measures. In M. Chtcheglovltoff the revolutionists ap parently were trying to kill not the man, but the head of the department responsible for the political trials of the last year as well as the prison regime under which thousands of revolutionists have suffered. Grand Duke Nicholas, although not directly connected with the administration except by his position of nominal commander of the troops. In St. Petosburg, has been held up by the revolutionists to the popular gase as the patron of the reactionary or ganization and a malevolent Influence upon Emperor Nicholas. The police have discovered on Basil Island the headquarters of the northern organi sation. In a secret chamber were found, In addition to a quantity of revolvers and cartridges, two powerful bombs of tbe finest workmanship and a great quantity of a new explosive of enormous force. The tenant of the building, where this find was found, and who was arrested on the street with a bomb In his pocket, has been Identi fied as an accomplice In the murders of Lieutenant General Pavloff, Major General Von der Launlts and General Maximoff sk y. Four lodgers In the building, two men and two women, also were arrested and are now confined In a fortress. The two women arrested yesterday In Finland are shut up In the same fortress. It Is reported that the wife and sister-in-law of a million aire merchant, named Meshkoff, whose house was among those searched by the police, are being held as members of the organization. M. Meshkoff la the owner of fifty steamers plying In tha Volga. PEDDLERS IN ROUGH HOUSE Take Bartender's Revolver Away and Fire Tw Shota at IIliu Without Effect.
