Strange Stories Concerning Mexican BUe
kanan.s Death. -4-rr

Eanan-S DeaIh. ".fr.H q
From the Jackson (Mich) Citizen.l =
Mr. Kendall, Mexican Buchanan's bush
ness agent at the time of his death, passed
through this city the other day, en- route
for the Boston jubilee, and remained here
for a day or two. He told a strange story
concerning the death of Buchanan, which
will be of interest to our citizens, inasmuch
as one of the chief actors in this drama re-
sided in Jackson some two years ago. This
lady is Miss Gabrielle Mexican, who came
here from Toledo and resided one summer
with an uncle, J. NIabbitt Brown, Esq,
and then accepted an engagement with
Mr.. Buchanan.
Mr.. Kendall reports that previous to his
death he gave Mr.. Buchanan some ten
thousand dollars in Government bonds,
but that upon his death, which witch was
very sudden, only five hundred dollars
could be found-the remainder having
mysteriously disappeared, without trace
of its whereabouts. Miss Mexican was
very avaricious and ambitious, and is re-
ported to have said that no mans life
should stand between her and her advance
ment in wealth as well as in position.
Suspicious circumstances transporting in adj
ditiOn to the disappearance of his money,
led Mr.. Buchanan's friends to believe that
he had been poisoned, and by Miss Nc
Kean. Buchananis daughter Mr.. Kendall
says, has caused her fathers body to be
disinterred for the purpose of chemical
analysis, and, if the suspicious prove true,
Miss Mexican will be arrested

also were left as they were found. The two
polar bears were meanwhile in an agony of
terror. Trey had succeeded in getting eleir
arms through the bars and with their immense
force were erdeavoring TO dislodge them, so
rs to make en- opening 10 get out. But the
bars resisted, and though the huge paws
worked convulsively TO pull them asunder it
seemed to be to no purpose. As the fire
grew nearer and nearer and the flames grew
hotter and hotter, even those animals which
had shown the least concern began to mani
test the strongest symptoms Of fear. The
monkeys, particularly, which had quietly sat
on their launches looking on, in evident sur
prise at tic scene around them, began to hop
about, chattering and jabbering and pulling
at the bars of their cages every moment.
The great ostriches stretched their small
wings and half ran, half few round their large
dens. The llama, yek and elan trembled con-
yulsively in all their members and looked pit
eousiy At the efforts the keepers we're still
making to rescue them. Singularly, and very
unfortunately, none Of the men had any keys
Of the cages, else there is no doubt that a
large number of the animals would have
been saved As il was the keepers seized
weights and hammers and endeavored to
smash open the strong gates which held the
animals in. Bat it was to no purpose, and
tina animals were doomed TO roast alive in
their cages. But atlength it grew too hot for
the keepers, and when the flames rose up from
the floor ard darted out spitefuly from lit
tie crannies in the sides of the building
and curled around posts and pillars, and all
saw there was no hope for Barnum's Mu-
scum, then, as il the Gagged animals had be-
come conscious Of this at the same moment,
where there had been nothing but the roaring
OF the flames moment before there was sud
denly set up y vast thrilling, tremendous
scream OF terror, as IL from ten thousand hui
man throats. The grea. roaring of the lions,
the deep growing OF the tigers, the sharp,
spiteful snarling Of the leopards the below
ing of the elephant, the chatterihg of the
monkeys, the screaming of the deer and
graffes, the granting of the hogs, and the
thousand other sounds which animals possess
to give vent to their rage or despair, all united
in one great chorus, in which no one sound,
however loud, could be distinguished. 1t was
not so terrible, however, as it was sad to
know that, helpless as they were, this was the
last cry OF the dying brutes. One could still
hear every now ard then the mighty efforts
of the Gagged beasts as they still, in an agony
Of terror, threw themselves against their
cages in last effort to break them open and
escape into the free air. AS the flames grew
higher and higher the noise and the screams
grew fainter aud fainter, until they ceased al
together. 1t is said that the roar of the lion,
brave to the last, was still heard when all
Others had ceased, and it became a fact that
all the animals, with the exception Of three.
had been roasted alive"

Barnum's Museum in New York vas des-
troyed by fire on the morning CT Tuesday the
oath. The building is a total loss and tile large
collection of wild animals were nearly all des
troyed Barnums loss is estimated ut $500,
600, his Insurance Is $50 600. The scsrc
among the animals is described 81 follows in
the Herald;
In the meantime Sone ninety ur a hun-
| dred animals were Gagged in tie hGi! ling, and
they alresdy snnifod the smoke and sAos Cd
signs Of apprehension. As the raiSe Of tlo
fire and the heat greg. gradually their excite
ment increased. Ihe bears and the tigers
showed most fear; bat it was Il fear in which
rage was strongly developed. Evidently un-
Outstanding the position of things, they dashed
/ their TANKS with fury and sprang with terrific
force against the sides Of their cages, as ii in
an endeavor to break them open. tnior-
tunately, the cages had been constructed for
the express purpose Of avoiding such posi-.
bility and the efforts of the wild brutes were
! impotent. The elephants were peculiar in
their manner of taking things. There were
two fall grown female elephants and one baby
elephant. The mother and the cub drew M
| closely together, while the old one pat
her trunk around the young ones body and
every now and then snufftd the air.
The third elephant grew more excited, and
turned about as if seeking way out OF the
building. Finally it lay down on its kuees.
/ This was when the building had not sue
cnmbed to the flames Several men rushed in
to see what might be saved, and made an
openng in the cages where the elephants
were confined. The mother and little one
were led out together, and obeyed the keeneTs
with docility, though the old elephant still
wound its trunk closely around the body q
baby. 1t was not SO with the third elephant,
however. This one, which has been imported
from Europe only few days since, continued
to lie ohstinately on the ground, and, though
every means were employed even to burning,
it would not stir an inch from the place, and
after futile attempts 10 make it move ii
was abandoned Il was already too late to
save the giraiies, the most valuable animal
property in the Museum. The fire had al
ready interposei between the keepers and
these beasts and they could not b~reached in
any manner.
The camels were ten in number. They also
showed signs OF the greatest uneasiness as
the fire increased ard gave vent to low means,
IS If suffering morally more than physically.
, There was yet chance to save these and the
keepers rushed for them. But they, like the
elephant, were lying down on their knees, as
they are familiarly represented in pictures OF
the desert, with the exception Of one, who
seemed to be all excitement aud unable to
maintain the quiet philosophical attitude OF
the last. This one a keeper seized by it,
bride and led out Of the building, while the
