THE CONNECTICUT BORGIA.-
Eleven Host -F0uls and Unnatural
Murders.

Mrs. Sherman, the alleged poisoner
Of husbands and children, is in close
custody at Derby, Connecticut, the
scene Of most Of her nerarious exploits
The main facts of her later life have
already been given. But her whole
career has been history Of extraordi-
nary crimiDality. The daughter of a
Trenton butcher, she married Edward
Shruck when seventeen years old, and
became in time the mother of six
children. Then began the series OF
awful events-for which she is now held
TO account. First her husband was
taken sick and suddenly died, and SUBJ
sequently all the children also died
within two years, with no assignable
cause. She soon moved to Connecticut,
and married Mr.. Hurlburt, of Hunt
ington, a man Of considerable property;
but he, too, died suddenly, shortly after
making over all his worldly possessions
to his wife. Suspicious now began TO
be aroused, which were not allayed
when it became known that the widow
had married her third husband, wi1.
over with four children, two Of whom
were also suddenly. taken i'll" and died.
The father followed them in June last,
and the physicians now thoroughly
aroused made post norton exaniina-
ton and discovered the presence Of ar
senic in large quantities. Subsequent
examinations disclosed that the same
deadly drug had been the cause Of the
deaths Of Mr.. Sherman children and
Mr.. Hurlburt. and the presumed muir
deress was accordingly arrested at New
Brunswick, n. J whittier she had be
taken herself. Her manner is cool and
selt-po,sessed, and her c,untenance be-
trays frmness and cunning. She says
little, but expresses the belief in her ul-
innate acquittsl. 1t can hardly be
doubted, however, that she has actually
committed no less than eleven most foul
and unnatural murders.

Fires interesting Experiments.

The True Cause Oh many "ysseEioAS
Fires interesting Experiments.
In March last we'll known Detroit
chemist, assisted by two curiously In
clined and science-ioving gentlemen
resolved to test the worth Of specula
tons about, spontaneous combustion
and their experiments are well worth
the attention Of every reader. They
first took a piece OF cotton cloth which
had once formed part Of sheet, and
which had been used until quite thread
hare. and smeared it with boiled linseed
oil. An old chest was placed IN the
loft of store room back Of the drug
store a piece OF zinc under it, another
niece over it, and then the chest was
filled with paper and rags, and this
particular piece Of cloth was placed IN
the center. Although the room was
not a tight one, and the weather cold,
in eight days there was such a smell OF
fire about the trunk, and the chances
so good for confagration within It,
that the coutents were .emptled out.
An examination showed that the fibre
of the oiled cloth had UNFINISHED and
shriveled up, and that the rag looked as
il it had been held to near a hot blaze
In April, when the rays Of the sun
were stronger, a pair Of painter g overalis'
literally covered with paint and OIL
were rolled up, o handful Aof pine
sbavings placed inside, and these were
crowded 10 next to the root boards 81
