fuller than they have been since the

larger churches. Cardinal Robert, arch-
bishop ot Paris, assisted by the chap-

number of aged people with a lented
past. Crowds have visited the altars
ard the great relinuaries of Notre Dame.
At the theatres tonight the subjects will
be mostly scriptural.

THOUGHT TO BE MISS HOFFMAN

Total Number of Bodies Recovered From the
Windsor Rulns Is 43.

New Yor«, April 1—Atabout 1:30
o'clock thia morning the workmen in
the ruius discovered the body of a wo-
man, which was almost intact. When
the body was partly raised a gold watch
and chain was seen to fall from it. On
the outside-of the watch case was the
word “Dora.” Itis believed tne body
is thatof Misa Dora Hoffman, of Balti-
more. . Shortly after, another body,
which to all appearances is that of an
old woman, was discovered. It ia well
preserved and is supposed to be that of
a woman who lived with Miss Hoffman.
