had several cells which extended into
the head, though not to the brain, but

Double Murder in Indiana.

A correspondent of the Indianapolis
Journal says:
A great deal of excitement prevails
here on account of the murder of A. j.
Todd and his wife, six miles south of
this place, last night. At an early hour
this morning man named Bright call
ed at Todd's house, to go with him to
their daily work. Bright was unable to
get any answer from the inside, and
could not open the door. He looked
into the window and saw the murdered
man and woman. He went to the
neighbors and gave the warning and
sent to this place for the Coroner, who
summoned jury and went to the place
of the murder. Todd was found laying
on the floor with his throat cut from ear
to ear, and a bullet-hole in his
breast, and rife gun laying about
three feet from his body. Both hands
were clasped en- his breast over the bull
let hole. His throat had been cut while
in bed, where he had bled to death, and
then dragged out of the bed and thrown
on the floor, and shot. His wife was
laying in the bed with the bed clothes
and her night clothes all in perfect order.
The back side of her head was mashed
in and there were several cuts across
her face and arms, and on her head.
An old hatchet was found in the bed,
and an old case knife on the floor, both
bloody, and there was hair en- the
hatchet. No clue has as yet been OBJ
tanned as to who could have committed
this bloody deed.

Azure for "womnu,s Rights,

Several gentlemen in Paris, whose
wives participated in the meetings en-
phatically advocating the emancipation
of women, played their spouses the fol-
lowing trick: A lawyer, whom they ell
gagged for this purpose, called at their
house in their absence, and desired to
see Madame. Madame was Occupied
with her toilet, but the visitor insisted
on seeing hsr. So she was obliged to
receive the lawyer, who very politely
handed her stamped paper. The lady
read it in surprise, and turned very
pale. The lawyer left her. What
did the paper contain An APP
plication for divorce on the part of
the husband. The lady passed long
hours of suspense. At last her husband
came home from the office. "My friend,
what is the meaning of this paperr she
asked, with a pale face. "Why, it is an
application for divorce from you.

smile, ''you have wet feet, and will

husband, laughing inwardly at her de-
sire to do something to make him
comfortable; 81 am quite we'll, and
am sure you will likewise get

An exchange suggests that the several
States adopt the custom of carrying
out capital punishment employed in
Europe, where the task of executing
the sentence Of the law is entrusted to
single individual. By pursuing this
course we are told the business Of
hanging will be performed in a practic-
al manner, and there will be an end Of
the horrible butcheries reported
throughout the country, The sugges-
tion is timely. If we are to
keep up the practice of choking
healthy men and sound con-
verts to Christianity, let us do it in a
systematic manner. We think it would
not be bad plan to set apart a portion
of the public funds for the express pur-
pose of establishing State College, to
be devoted exclusively to the business
Of perfectiRg papils in the art of hang
ing. By and by it may be accepted as
one of the fine arts. The pupils need
not lack for subjects; their leisure hours
might proftably be devoted to the prac-
tice of choking the ours which infest
our streets.

A Terrible TraEedy-A Mother ans
Two ChiIdren Found Dead in Theil
Beds, supposed TO Have Been Pei''
oned.
In Bridgeport, Illinois, on Tuesday
morning, a laborsr named Morfls
Finn was found lying across bed II
his house in the sgonies Of death, while
his wife and two children lay dead be
side him. The face of Mrs. Finn bore a
distorted expression, and it was evident
that her death must have been accom-
panied with great agony. The Oldest
child, John Stephen, was only a tribe
over two years of age, while the youug-
est was a babe six months old. When
Finn was first discovered, he was lying
face down upon the bed with the others,
the younger of the two children being
partly doubled up under him.
Upon the arrival of the officers a
search was instantly instituted, though
for time little of interest was discov-
cred. That the family did not lack
food was soon apparent, for large quan-
titles of -four, potatoes and meat were
found in an adjoining pantry. A barrel
partially filled with sour kraut, in the
front room, occasioned no little interest
until it had been opened and its contents
known, and then the searchers Contin-
ued with their labors, though with
smaller hopes of meeting with anything
out of the way. In the bureau drawer
box of pills were found, and with this
discovery the officers were about to
close, when some one brought to light
a small cup containing some semi
fluid white substance pushed far under
the bed, where the corpses were first
seen. A.bricf examination of the con-
tents of this cup was made by one OF
the medical gentlemen present, and he
instantly gave it as his opinion that it
was poison, though of what nature will
not be known until chemical analysis
has been had. This cup, together with
the box of pills, was taken possession Of
by the Coroner, to await post mOrtem
examination of the bodies.
Finn was alive at last accounts, and
it is thought he will recover.
