A CLEKELAND TRACED Y.
Woman brushes In q Man's Skull
Her Account of the Affair.
From the Cleveland Leader, June 30.

From the Cleveland Leader, June 30.
On Sunday evening two men named Pat Flan-
nagan and Mike Reynolds INDUCED in tree
fight at Newburg, and on Monday Mike had Pat
arrested on charge of assault and battery. The
case had hearing before Squire Forbes and
Mary Bolan appeared as a witness. Both parties
were discharged on payment of costs. Mary
Boan then started for home, but on her wav
stopped at the saloon of Mis-. Cummings and
took something to drink.
Al the saloon there we're a number of men
collected, engaged in drinking and smoking,
and one OF them, Jack Berry, applied insulting
and indecent language to Mrs. 30 an, of q char
acter too filthy for her to repeat. She soon left
the saloon, and started TO cross the street.
Front stre0t-to her home. While ON the way
over she looked back and saw Berry following
her. She entered her house and fastened the
door, and seeing that he was sull approaching
her dwelling she looked about for something
wit which TO defend herself.
She soon found the leg of a large cherry
table, and armed with this fearful wsapou-the
thick end being square, with sharp corners
she stationed herself at the door.side TO defend
her threshold. Jack Berry came to the door,
and finding 1t fastened, he used his strength to
force 1t open. After one or two efforts to enter
by throwing his body against the door with all
his strength he succeeded IN bursting it open.
No sooner had he stepped upon the threshold
than Mrs Bolan swung her weapon IN the air,
and 1t iel with terrible force upon the left side
OF Berry's head. Again, with all her strength,
she swung tae table leg aloft and it again de-
scended with crash upon the head of the vic.
tim, Telling him to the ground. The blows
several in rapid succession-were theG raiued
upon the back and shoulders of Berry, until
worn out with her exertions the woman ceased
her work OF destruction.
Such is the story told by the murderess but
other evidence may change it. Mrs. Mary Bolqn
Is very large woman, weighing not less thau
one hundred and eighty pounds. She Is appa-
rentIy between forty aud fifty years of age,
although she may be younger. She is very
mu- cular woman, perfect Amazon in strength.

Special Despatch 10 The Evening Telegraph.
NEW HAVEN, July 2.-The closing exercises at
Yale College yesterday were very interesting
and fully attended. The graduating class of
1868, numbering about l15, appeared at the
Chapel at 10 o'clock, and marched up the aisle
two-by-twO, making a fine appearance. Mr.. w.
A. Linn, OF Dickertown, N. j., then commenced
the recital of his poem. 1t was a fine produc-
tion, splendidly delivered, highly appreciated,
and enthusiastically applauded.
Mr.. Cbauncey b. Brewster, OF New Haven,
was then announced as the orator of the day.
He chose as his subject, "The supreme end of
education properly power rather than an ac-
quisition." The subject was treated, aud de-
liveIed in q manner that reflects great credit
upon the young orator. The closing address to
the faculty and students was also very excel
lent, and called forth manifestations of sympa-
thetic feelings.
The prizes were then given out, after which
the members of the class commenced n series of
Jokes, some Of which were not only very sar-
castle, but rather personal, after which the
band played, and all repaired to Alumni Hall,
and partook Of a splendidly prepared collation..
