THE RUM DEMON,

1t cannot fail to arrest the attention of
the most Indifferent to what fearful ex
tent the rum demon IS responsible for
the numerous frightful murders that
have occurred within the last few
months. In more than two-thirds of the
cases we are able to trace directly its
baleful influence. The last recorded is
that of the woman Moran, in Jersey
City, who fatally stabbed her husband
about noon yesterday. Infuriated by the
fumes of the liquor in his brain, he assault
ed his wife with great violence, striking
her a terrible blow and knocking her al
most senseless to the floor. As soon as
she arose he again attacked her, and so
savagely that, in fear for her own life,
she seized a large carving knife, and cut
her husband across the abdomen, open
ing a ghastly wound from which the
intestines protruded. The dying man
requested that his wife should not be ar
rested, and the poor woman besought
that the papers would not abuse her,
declaring that she would go mad II her
husband died A more dreadful sltua-
ton than this can scarcely be imagined
and rum, too, at the bottom of the
