pose ofattacAingthe propertyOfa certain
debtor in Pennington, in the State of
Maine He owed each one separately.
and they, each one, were suspicious Of
the object Of che other, but dared not
cay word about 1t. So they rode, ac-
quaintarccs all talking upon every
thing except that which they had most
at heart When they arrived at the
depot at Pennington, which was three
miles from where the debtor did bust
ness, they found nothing to 'put 'em
over tho road" but solitary cab,
toward which they all rushed. Three
got in and refused admission to the
fourth, and the cab started Thefourth
ran after and got UP outside with the
driver. lie asked tho driver if he
wanted to sell his horse He replied
that he did not want to-that he was
not worth more than fifty dollars, but
he would not sell him for that, lie
asked him if he would thke one hun
dred dollars for him. yes, +" said he.
The fourth man quickly paid over the
money, took the roins, and backed the
cab up to bank, slipped 1t from the
harness, and tipped 1t up 80 that the
door could not bO opened, and jumped
on tho horses back and rode oil Iickaty
switch, while the insiders were looking

writ made and served and his debt sc.
cure, and got back to the hotel just as
the ''insiders' came up putting and
blowing. The cabman soon bought
back his horse for fifty dollars. The
sold men offered 10 pay that sum il

sufficient to pay his own debt, would

Aservant girl was set on fire and
burned to death from the explosion of
Z lamp, last evening, at the residence
Of Dr. Sturgis, West Main Street. The
f9Howing are tho particulars of the
melancholy affair: The accident hap
pened about half past eight o'clock.
Two servant girls We're Just about to
leave the dining-room, aflea closing the
evening work. One of them, Minerva
McEeal was left behind to put out the
light, while the other went to the
kitchen with table-wear. The lamp
hung ia E bracket at the side and near
the top Of the door, II was high up,
and Il is supposed that the girl in try
ing to extinguish it, pulled it down, as
Ihe bracket was broken in two places.
! It exploded and the burning oil was
thrown over the girl, and on the car
pet and chairs adjacent. The girl gave
no alarm, but ran toward tho front
part Of the house, through two rooms,
and through the hall into the library
on the right side, shutting oil the doors
after her as she went.
The other girl in the kitchen, hear
ing the noise Of the explosion, ran into
the dining-room, and seeing the carpet
and chaiIs on FIRE gave tho alarm TO
Mrs. Sturgis and daughter, up stairs,
who were the only adult members
Of the family about the house. The lat
ter ran down, and all suppoSing the
explosion spontaneous, first directed
their efforts to the putting out Of the
FIRE. This accomplished, the scent of
the fire attracted them to the other
rooms through which the girl had
passed. Following on they found her
lying on the library floor, breathing
heavily and burned to a crisp Every
particle Of clothing was gone except
her shoes Part Of the lounge and one
of the windows had several paneS Of
glasa broken, the poor girl having at
tempted to got out by breaking thro'
the window. The steel hoops that had
dropped from her person had burned
their way through the carpet to the
floor
Medical aid was summoned immedi
ately and everything done that coulc
he doheto alleviate the sufferings o.
