A TragicaI Enigma.

The tragedy at Bridgeporh Conn, of
which Capt. George NJ. Colvocoresses
was the victim, promises, from late de-
velopments, to absorb more of public
interest than it has yet received.
AT first there was no question but
this was deliberate, carefully-concoct-
ed murder for the sake of gain, which
had been carried into execution with
extraordinary nerve. Committed early
in the evening, in street of large
city, usually much frequented at that
hour, the murder seemed to have been
done by one who had patiently followed
his victim, and finding darkness and
solitude where neither could have
been expected, seized the opportunity
thus suddenly presented. There was
nothing improbable thus far in the
theory of murder, and it was greatly
strengthened by the discovery of memo
randa which seemed to show that Capt.
Colvocoresses had been robbed of a
large amount in securities. Here was
motive for the crime, and the officers
appear to have worked as honestly and
patiently, as they have fruitlessly, upon
this basis. They seem to have been
troubled from the beginning by cir
.cumstance never before encountered in
murder though the dead man had been
shot through the heart, his coat and
vest had not been perforated and his
shirt had been burned, thus showing
conclusively that the muzzle of the
pistol had been placed within the two
outer garments before the shot was
fred. 1t was exceedingly difficult to
imagine what sort of an assassin he
must have been, who would have taken
the chance of defeating his purpose by
his shot going astray, as there was
great danger it would from being hur
riedly fired from the side, as it mu 81
have been.
Failing to find the slightest clue te
the murderer, the detectives went back
to the dead body, and have commenced
a critical examination of the pistol anc
satchel found beside it, which it il
singular was not made before. 1t i
found that there are indentations il
! the latter, in which the muzzle anC
hammer of the weapon exactly fit, thu
raising the inference that the pisto
was the property of the deceased, ant
consequently that he died by his owl
hand. As fact leading to the sam
!, conclusion, it is announced that fev
7 months before his death Capt. Colvc
coresses insured his life for the unusu
!, ally large amount OF $4,000; and be
ing sixty-6ve years of age, he was pay
ing twenty thousand dollars per annur
in premiums, although now supposed
! to have been a comparatively poo
man. Doubts have arisen whether h
ever possessed the securities mer
f toned in his memoranda, and thes
q are taken as additional evidence ths
!. the tragedy was nothing more than
suicide.
y But it is urged against this theor
v no man ever deliberately took his ow
life in the cause of philanthropy, an
! that the will of Capt. Colvocoresse
r executed March 9, 1872, containir
e charitable bequests to the amount of
# few thousand dollars, shows that it
impossible that his death should ha,
been the consummation of shrewd
sl concocted plan to defraud the insu
ance companies.-New York Times.

WASHED ASHORE.

'' Bayslde," as its owner somewhat
ambitiously chrisiened the incongruous
aggregation of discomforts and wooden
balconies at the head of the little cove,
was one of those numberless saltwater
summer refugees with which the shore
of Long Island Sound is studded.
1t was quiet sort of place, and the
neighborhood was good; but the most
remarkable feature of Bayside that sum-
mer was the presence of Nellie Martin.
Of course, there were other girls enough,
that came and went; but the steady
possession, week after week, of even
one undeniable be uty, is windfall for
a small watering-place. Old Bowers
and his managing wife frankly admitted
te each other that they could have af-
forded to board Nellie for nothing.
But not her mother" added the
good lady; those tall, thin people are
awful eaters
g But l rather like the old gentle
man. responded her spouse. He's
a good fisherman. and he brings home
his fish but l don't believe he's rich" J"
"If they amt pretty well off" said his
wife, they've no business to have
spoiled Nellie to that degree"
And beyond all doubt, the willful
beauty had been spoiled "to that de-
gree,n so that she frankly accepted all
male attention and devotien as no
more than her due, without the least
apparent idea that it could rightfully
demand repayment in more serious coin
than her own smiling approval.
To do her justice, however, her fault
extended to her dealings with even the
children and she seemed as happy
among the veriest babies that came tc
Bayside as with the most of her grown
mp admirers.
Even when her pale-faced mother
chided Nellie on her behavior, she
could obtain no more than kiss O
peace, and,
Nonsense, mamma; I'm sure i
won't hurt either of them.n
And Mrs. Martin shook her head low
ingly, and held her peace, for when
among so many young gentlemen a
appeared and disappeared at Bay
side, young lady like Nellie coul
say either OF them,'' it was very clea
that there were two in particular.
Both of them knew very well whic
two, for Nellie's other worshippers wer

Dark the shadows grow and DINNER,
w nile the gray wolf by her side
fr30mlseoIlow and treach' 'rous pleading
That no harm should her betide.
Beat her pulses swift and strangely.
Fluttered fast her trusting heart:
Yet she told him all her errand
Ere at last they turned to part.
Well we know the tragic ending
Of the simple and old tale;
How. for once. in fairy stories
Evil projects did not fail.
Not all wolves are dead and buried,
Nor all maidens wiser grown:
Many hearts still hutter strangely
At a specious pleading tone.
Therefore, linger not to listen
When your path by wolves is crossed,
Be you deaf unto the pleading
She who hesitates is lost.

whom he had been paying 50 per day,
and filed their places with Cinnamon,
at one-third that sum. When the new
hands had earned the business, they
struck for 50. The. employer refused.
Thereupon they went into the business
on their own account, and now bid fair

from Stanley, the explorer sent out by

summary:
From Unyanyhube, where Stanley ar

1866, with twelve Sepoys, nine Johanna

His men got frightened, deserted, and
