The Dubuque Telegraph of February
Is says: A man named VIM. Muhl,
who formerly was a miner at Tetcs DIES
Morris, has been for a long time past an
inmate of the poorhouse. He is afflicted
with a cancer in the head, which has
eaten through his skull, and left the
brain almost exposed to view. The
county physician has paid considerable
attention to his case, but has been un-
able to do the patient much good.
Five weeks ago Muhl refused to take
any food, stating that he had no desire
for it, and persisted in his refusal for Il
couple Of days. At the end of that
time Mr.. Trcanor, the good-hearted
steward, began feeding him with whisky
punches, and has continued to admin
ister the stimulant ever since. For five
weeks not morsel of food has passed
through Muhl's lips, and he is, seem
ingly, almost as well as when he refused
to take it. He lost the use of his speech
about three weeks since, and is now un,
able to utter word"

| that the murder was committed 10y the
father, Leonard Marquand, who is evil

u chapter to his family from the Bible,
and then, rising up, accused his vile OF

says that his oldest daughter confirmed
him in the accusation. He says also
that on Saturday night he told his wife
that he wanted their children to leave (;
that both he and his wife stripped
themselves naked and knclt down and
PRAYED for fifteen minutes. They then
stripped two children, took them out
and drowned them and laid them side

then dashed out the brains of their IN
tant, and left it lying in the woods,
after which they returned home and
went to bed. After lying there fifteen
minutes he told his wife that he wanted
to send her to heaven also, and lmmedt'
ately fell upon her and stranglcd her to

Novel Way of Getting Rid of Tenant.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer, March ,.
Mrs. Mayling is the name of Il widow
lady, with three children, who occupies
a room in the third story of the build
in~ No. $50 Race street. The landlord
has been giving her notice to leave,
very persistently for some time, and she
has us persistently refused to comply with
the wishes of the proprietor. Yester
day morning Mrs. Mayling sent one of
her children in great haste for physi-
clan, stating that she was III 4 very bad
way When the doctor assembled the
stairs leading to her altitudinous room
he was stitled with the fumes OF brlm-
stone. With Il great disregard to con
sequences he pushed forward until he
reached the poor woman's door, which
was opened in response to his knock.
The fumes of birthstone were SO strong,
however, that he was compelled to rush
down one flight Of stairs, where he
called to the woman and asked her
what she was trying to do. She replied
that she was trying to keep possession
of her room, but she was beginning to
despair of being able 10 do SO much
longer. She said the landlord was
lumigating her establishment with
birthstone, for the purpose Of making
her leave the premises, and she was
beginning to find the situation unpIcas-
ant. The doctor informed her that she
could probably exist another hour in
the atmosphere, if her constitution WAS
pretty strong, but he would not warrant
her life and that Of her children for Il
longer time than that. When the doc
tor left the little family were gasping
for wholesome air, like II mackerel ON u
sand bar, ON the lower steps Of the stair
way, and the landlord was still plling
on the birthstone.

An AnecdOtc of Madame Malibran.

The writer of "Mu5cal Recollections
of the Last Half Century, in TmSLey'S
Waye@ine, tells this characteristic story
of Madame Malibran:
The characters on the occasion OF
Mdme. MalIbran's return 10 the English
stage in ''Somnambula," in 1896, were
tolcrably filed by Mr.. Soguin Count
Rodolfo), Mr.. Templcton (Eyino), Mr..
Duruset (Alessio), and Miss Belts Lisa)
Maibran, who entered heart aud soul
INTO every character she undertook, was
reduced almost to despair at first by the
stupidity aud gauchtric of Mr.. Temple
ton, who had not the slightest idea of
acting. 1t was enough for him rs it
was also for Rubini and lvanhon-to
walk on and ell and about the stage,
coming III with his part at The proper
cues, and singing ut his best But this
did not suit Madame Malibran. At the
first rehearsal she bore this imperturba-
bility Of manner with some degree OF
patience, thinking that she could rouse
"lhc man." as she called him, into some
thing like enthusiasm by her manner.
But when, at the next and the sue
cecding repetition, she found him ''no
better than stick" she suddenly seized
him by the arm, and Kissed i'll his ear,
