Grand Duke Cyril has Just arrived here on bis way to 8t ,Ptersburg, says a World dls patch from Harbin. His Injuries are not wvere, although he Is suffering fni burns on the neck ands. ear caused by the explosion on the Petro oavlovsk and from bruises of the back and loin caused by the beating of the turbulent waves. He gave the following story of his escat. which was almost miraculous: . At the moment of the explosion on the Petropavlovsk the grand duke was t.. .ri,io at the other end or UH m - ...v,i..h Admiral Makaroff. It v tin t. - - seemed as If the world, the skies, the waters were suddenly .rent asunder nd from the gulf arose a devouring cloud and blinding flame, which burst wltn a roar Into acrid, suffocating fumes. Bcorched. blinded, choked, stunned. Cyril recovered consciousness suffi ciently to recognlxe that the Petropa vlovsk was settling down by the head The bodies of the dead tailors were floating from off the forecastle deck, whkh was awaah. All around lay wreckage. Fallen tops hampered and scalding steam cut off the grand duke escape by the companion" way. II faintly remembers that he rea Used the necessity of making his way aft dimly reasoning that there he was more likely with some way still on the ship to clear the suction from her when she sank. He recalls clambortng down from the brWge and maklnghls way along the' deck through clouds of steam and mnsses of debris. . He remembers ascending an Incline, with the rising water, as It seemed, pursuing him Into a barbette in which the water was already pouring with such force that he was required to use all the strength he could master to hMi. his way out. However, he reached a gun port and dived down and outward with all the force of an ath letic and practiced swimmer. His temples were bursting with the effort of retaining hla .breath. Then he struck upward. At last tho tight came and he reached the air. While he filled his lungs he supported himself, on a of floating wreckage which he seised and to which he assisted another truMlln swimmer. . Then the grand duke looked around for the Petropavlovsk. She was not to h Men. The sea was quite calm and except for the gentle rise and fall of the woodwork to which he was cling Ins with his companion, he was quite motionless. There remained only a few dimmers, some floating wreckage ana corpses. The grand duke estimated that he was In the water about one minute and forty seconds before reach ing safety. WANTS HIS MONEY BACK. Aged Msn Finds That He Placed Con fidence in Wrona Person. San Francisco, April 20. Thinking that he was too ill nnd feeble to live much lonfter aged Patrick Lafferty con vlnced himself that In young Alfred Donlgan he had a friend, and he had hi. alander bank account of VW iran ferred to Donlgan's name with the nndsratandtn that tht boyshouM draw out such sums as he needed but eonld not ao to the bank to get But never a cent was drawn out for Tffrt. and tn desperation he went to the sheriffs office and reported his plight. It happened that Juage was there" and out of Sympathy ne at once became Interested In Lalferty's behalf, and today had the young man hnfnr Police .Judge Cabanlss on 'a search warrant. Judge Cabanlss said It. was evident to him that the young man and his mother had not been acting .properly, and ordered the bank book asKlgned to Lafferty, who did not have a" cent lrt. his pocket.

The crocodile is a pet of Mrs. Szarvasl of the Sells-Forepaugh show and Is called Sappho. The python, so tbe classic press agent who gave the story said, Is named Phaon.
