NAPOLEON’S SOLDIERS.
But Four Remain, Each Over one
Hundred Years old.
Oue of the French papers, which
have been devoting a great deal of
attention to Napoleon Bonaparte
of late, has been entertaining its
readers by having a census made
of the survivors of Napoleon’s
grand army.
Four of these men only are now
left. The eldest is Jean Jacques
Sabatier, who was born on the fif
teenth of April, 1792, at Vernoux
A r deche, where he has lived in
retirement for many years.
Then comes \ ietor Bailod, Jean
Bousset and Joseph Rose, aged
respectively one hundred years and
3ne month, one hundred years and
one month and oue hundred years
and a few days.
It is said that all are as hearty
and vigorous as can be expected,
•u spite of their experience as long
as ®'ghty two years ago in that ter
rible retreat when the beggarly
remnant of the greatest army the
7,° r 11 llas ever Bee u, worn out with
10 coid and hunger, angrily call
ed to the victor of Marengo and
Austerlitz to get off his horse and
bare 1Q the miseries of his men.

HIS DEATH DUETO FRIGHT
Little “Danny” M Dermott was tied
to a Post Near a dog.
Thomas Doouolb, a driver in the
employ of Alfred E. Spall, who owhs
several vans in Brooklyn and has his
headquarters at No. 2714 Atlantic
Xvenue near Wyona, was yesterdav
afternoon arrest d by two Queens
County c mstables in the saloon of
Alexander Jardin at Atlantic and
Wyona Avenues. The arrest was
made upon a warrant issued by Po
lice Justice Schumacher, of Middle
Village, ou a charge of assault in the
second degree, The prisoner was ta
ken to the Newton Jail.
Superintendent Robert Wilkin,
of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Children,has had his
attention called to the arrest of
Donnol'yJ and it is expected that
be will go to Newtown today and
ask that thejprisoner be also held
on a charge of homicide.
The arrest of Donnolly is the se
quel to what appears to be a ling
rant case of cruelty to a child. Up
to a short time ago Donnolly was
in the employ of Richard O’Keefe,
a wealthy contractor living in Ev
ergreens.
Donnolly was a stableman and
driver far him.Oue day during the
latter part of November little
Daniel McDermott, eight years
old, a son of Michael McDermott,
of Ridgewood was playing in front
of O'Keefe house with some other
boys.
The playing annoyed the stable- '
man it is claimed, and he after
warning them to go away, ran out
and caught hold of young McDer
mott.
According to the story told by the
boy’s mother, Donnolly dragged the
little fellow into a dark stable, lashed
him to a post beside a big black dog
and then went out of the stable, clos
ing the door.
The boy screamed with Light, The
dog vunced upon him, but accord
ing to all accounts did not bite him.
In less than five minutes Donnolly
returned to the stable and released
the boy, who wss so frightened he
could not. speak
The boy went to his home,to hl his
mother as best he could what had
happened and went to bed in a few
hours In three days Vitus’ dance
developed and a week later the boy
died. According to the statement of
the attending physician the disease
was due to the experience the boy
had undergone.
During the child’s confinement
in bed he suffered intense agony.
His limbs were twisted, his eye
sight impaired, his throat was
choked up and his tongue render
ed utterly usely, so far as commu
nicating with those around him
was concerned. At times the pain
was so great as to render him un
conscious.
When Mrs. McDermott, the
boy’s mother, fully realized the
condition of her son she went to
Justice Schumacher, of Middle
Village, and obtained an order for
the arrest of Donnolly for assault
in th? second degree.
The constable who was intrusted
with the service of the warrant
failed to arrest the man, and the
latter, hearing that he was wanted
quietly got out of the way until
yesterday, when he was caught in
Brooklyn.—New York Herald.

CHRISTAIN ENDEAVOR.
The St. Louis Union Decides to

A SHOCK AT MEMPHIS.
Memphis, Tenn., August 11
Three distinct shocks of earth
quake were felt here at 12:30
o’clock this morning. The shocks
wore of ten seconds’ duration. All
buildings swayed and windows
rattled, but no damage was done.
A PAINFUL ACCIDENT.
By Which Mr. Ben Lumpkin Loos
es a Finger.
On yesterday morning, just as
ter midnight Mr. Ben F. Lumpkin
night watchman for the Southern
Railrord while chasing tramps out
of one of the company’s yards
fell between two lumber cars and
was dragged several feet.
Among the injuries sustained
was the fearful crushing and la
ceration of his right hand which
was so badly torn that Dr’s. Gar
lingion, & Harbin, found it uec
cessary to amputate the middle
finger.
It seems that Mr. Lumpkin had
discoved the tramps in a freight
car and chased them out. In per
suing them he thought they had
boarded a lumber car and while
trying to climb on the car th*
switch engine struck the cars and
knocked him off.
That he cou'd have beendragged
fifteen feet by the moving cars and
not killing him seems little short
of miraculous.
He was carried to his home and
everything that skill knew was
done to save his mangled hand and
relieve the terrible pain.
Last night he was doing as well
as could be expected with the
prospects in favor of the wounded
member being saved.
