Another mysterious case of murd

-AnOlncf 1ny SlcllOuS case OIL murder has
been pcrpctratcd, which bids fair to prove
al additional link to the long chain of UNI
solved homicidcs that have been COM
mitted in this city and vicinity during the
last decade. The mystery of the murder
of the little Joyce children has never been
cleared up; the assassin who pounded
Katy Lahan to death with crate wrench
at Longwood is still at large; the muir
derer and mutilator of Abiiah Ellis. keeps
locked in his breast his terrible secret, and
no clew has yet been found to the muir
dercr of Mr.. Lane, who, it will be remem-
bered was shot a year ago by man who
rang for admittance at his house, and
when the door was opened by Mr.. Lane,
shot the latter mortally, the assassin hid
ing his face from his victim with IL spread
umbrella. Last Friday night near the
place where the last tragedy was enacted,
in Ward 16 CDorchester.) aman was seen
bending over woman, who was grooming
and crying for help. Upon being dis
covered the man fled; and although every
effort was made to resuscitate the woman,
who was terribly Beaten, yet she died in
a few moments without at any time show
ing consciousness. The man was seen by
three or four persons, but the chances tor
his capture are poor indeed, for should
he be confronted by any one of the num-
Der, they would hardly be prepared to
swear to his identity from the hasty glance
afforded them by the uncertain light of Il
baclonded moon

SEip Loeb Earn Sunk.

LONDON. Dee. T. The crew of the Loeb
Earn, which ran into and sunk the Vile
dn HaYre, have arrived at Plymouth. The,
We're brought 10 port by the steamer Brit
Ish Queen which took them off the Loeb
Earn OF the 10th ult al which time She
WlS IN a sinking condition.
An account Of the Vile ,u Hayre dis
aster given by the rescued crew represents
that the captain and second mate of the
steamer came on board the Loeb Earn
shortly after jAe collision, and did NOT as
slSt IN saving amy OF the passengers, and
that the majority OF the French crew ex-
hibitcl lamentable cowMdice.
The captain Of the Loeb Earn makes the
following statement: After first sighting
the steamer and seeing She was coming
dangerously near, the captain Of the Loeb
Earn rang the ships bell and ported his
helm. The helm of the steamer was put
TO starboard but the steamer came right
across he Loeb Earns bows
The people in The first boat from the
French steamer did not say She was sink
mo bat the captain OF the Loeb Earn OBJ
serving that the steamer was settling
down, sent ont his boats.
Neither the first nor second one which
arrived shortly afterwards, bringing the
iii i HI.A aooond captains Of thy Eillo DIV,
HaArc, attempted to return hut in spite
Of The eNpostulations of all the crew who
were left on board the Loeb Earn and the
threats Of her mates to fire ON them, re-
manned alongside the ship. The clothing
OF the French officers who reached the
deck Of the Loch Earn was dry. showing
no signs OF their having been ia the wa
ter. Finally some Englishmen seized
and manned one OF the French boats and
went to the rescue Of those struggling in
the sea
Only one OF the French boats crew as
sisted III the rescue The captain of the
Loch Earn considers that the great loss Of
life resulted from the fact that his vessel
dritted such long distance from the
steamer after the collision, before it was
possible to shorten sail, and from the tard-
ness of the steamer in showing signals of
distress and from the misconduct of her
crew

the Judges and the President, and restoring
the Old rates of pay-SJo00 and mileage
There is also provision legalizing repay
mentS to The Treasury. The act is to take
effect from the date of its approval, and
does not affect the pay already received
The proposition 10 repeal the President s
increase ~ we'll was discussed at length
but the committee finally concluded that
there was too much question in regard tC
the cOnstitutiOnality Of snch i repeal tC
justify its Introduction into the present
bill. Amendments to this effect will be
strong support to a proposition to fix the
pay at 5000 and actual expenses instead
of mileage. This was substantially the
proposition which passed the house last
session. and was agreed TO by the senate
The final rate OF 5000 was fixed in the
conference committee. The bill will be
reported AT the close OF the morning hour
tomorrow. when Il full debate will follow
| A humble. OF members claim to be ready
| to show mat the law, as it stood, is reall,
cheaper for the government than the ole

The Bangor Wing, which desires TO
have everything remarkable happen in
that vicinity, and is a cynical unbeliever
in noteworthy things elsewhere. endeavors
to throw doubt upon the story Of the youth
who got outside Of eighteen mince pies,
and died in achieving fame. 1t says
At a shooting match in a town in Waldo
county, Thanksgiving day, Il hungry young
man ate eighteen mnce pies = we have the
authority of the Belfast Journal for this story,
and of course it's true. Had it stated that he
ate eight, instead of eighteen, the story as we'll
as the pies would have been easier to swallow.
But the thing was not well done, though per-
haps the pies We're. He was one of the upper
crust, but evidently had 4 soft spot somewhere.
He couldn't digest the pies an things, though
he didn't want to die jest yet, the piZen things
cooked him. Had his love for the pie-plate been
a happy Pat-onic affection instead of a fierce
flame. he would have come out of the furnace
of affection unscorched. But this diSquistion
is assuming a wide range, and as it is not meat
to mince matters, we may as well state that the
eating was overdone, and the youth was rolled
out corpse the next day. "Pietds fMnadneiil-
t,t1a est onaniu1n eiatutun1," which, literally
translated. means that everything is lovely WIN
