TERRIBLE AND FATAL EXPLOSION IN A BALLOON.
—Recently a circus manager named Lamberger
gave kick at Agram, in Hungary, which had been an-
nounced to terminate with a balloon ascent, fireworks, drc.
Just as the balloon ascended an iron pipe filled with gun-
powder and various pyrotechnic ingredients explodedwith
terrible effect, killing three persons on the spot and in-
flicting such serious wounds on others that six of them
died in the hospital in the course of the night. The mob
would have torn Lamberger into pieces had he not boon
protected by the police, who had taken him into custody.

SUSPECTED MURDER.—A young man named
Thomas Jones, working at the Royal Arsenal,
Woolwich, is in custody charged with the murder of his
wife and child. A few days ago the body of au infant was
found in the Thames. It had a fiat-iron tied to its neck,
and its skull was beaten in. Suspicion fell upon Jones,
and the body was identified, by means of the clothes, as
that of his child. His wife was confined on Good Friday,
and a few days afterwards suffered from all the symptoms
of poisoning. She died,and the child was sent to her sister's,
whence it was taken by Jones a few days ago, on the pre-
tence that he was going to put it elsewhere. He is re-
manded, and the body of the wife is ordered to be disin-
terred for a post mortem examination to be made.
