A LADY IN THE CASE.
[From the Courier-Jousnal. ;,

lFrom the Courier-Journal.]
An old, old story, but sweet and
touching one, ia that of Woman's devo- |
ton and self-1orgetfulnessi in seasons Of
sorest sorrow. The double railway
disaster Of first q frightful collision and
then an explosion of Q locomotives,
which occurred at midnight ON the
Chicago and Alton road, was enough
to paralyze the strongest nerves, but
the awful crash, which sent some from
the sleep of life to that of death, was to
many Of the women, so rudely aroused
from repoee, an opportunity for work
OF humanity. The conductor Of the
sleeping coach tells straightforward
story, which needs no establishment
OF polished phrases to adorn the angelic
work Of these volunteer sisters of
charity:
tsFirst thing knew, the ladies, God
bless them, were tearing up their un:
derclothing to bind up the sufferers.
Why, sir, in half minute they had
scarcely anything left on them. There
was round one mans hand q lace hand
kerchief that must have cost small
fortune. One lady thrust something
into my hand. to tie round mans
arm, which looked Hked-well, under
clothing. could not stand that any
longer. did not care what the COM
pany said, SO I just gave orders to open
the lockers and tear up anything that
came handy. And they did. There
were two or three ladies tearing sheets
into lengths to bind up wounds, while
u half dozen others were binding them
round the bloody arms and bodies of
the wounded men. There was one little
lady who was an angel she worked
how she workedl There's her card.
God bless her''-and he handed the re-
porter q card marked Mrs. Robert Nc
Cart, No. 212 South Centre Street,
Bloomington. 81 said I would get her
name into the papers, and she begged
me not to. But there it ISL
A glorious girl, Miss Tracy, the
daughter Of the editor of a paper in
Houston, Texas, distinguished herself
for her devotion and careful attention
to the sufferers, who were racked with
every torture. Earth has no medal nor
tribute of honor that can heighten the
beauty of this loving kindness, which
sparkles up in the full tide of womanly
devotion and sympathy in the arid
waste of human selfshnoss like foun-
tain in a burning desert.

HORSE STEALING. The Free Press says
that man named Chappell, hailing from
Concord, n. H., who had been working
for Mr.. Adams at Pigeon Hill, p. G.,
stole a black horse from his employer
about midnight on Saturday, and went to
st. Armand Station, where he took coal
box wagon and harness belonging to the
Messrs. Hoylc of that place He then
drove across the line, and has been traced
to Burlington, where about half past two
Yesterday, he stopped in front of the Van
Ness House and inquired of the porter the
road to Brattlebore, when he left on his
way. About an hour afterwards, the
Messrs. Hoyle arrived at Burlington and
at once proceeded in pursuit of the rascal,
and probably overhauled him during the
night. He was slightly built, thin faced
man, medium size, weighing about 100
pounds.

The Mailman Murder.

Further particulars of the Mailman trag-
edy at Bridgewater, have been received.
The body of Mrs. Mailman was found in
the forest, mile from her own house, COW
cred with moss, under the root of a tree.
The murder was evidently premeditated
and the woods were set on fire in two
places, in opposite directions. A post NOR
TEN examination and inquest was held yes
terday.
The verdict returned, was that Mary Ann
Mailman died from blows of a heavy blunt
instrument on the head, fracturing the
skull. The jury believes the instrument
was in the hands of her husband, Peter
Mailman.
Mailman was captured at Annapolis,
with two of the youngest children, on Mon
day. while undertaking to escape, and TAX
en- back to Briugewater. During the in
quest yesterday, the court was crowded,
and there was the most intense excitement
among men, women and children.
Had the prisoner appeared 1t would have
required strong armed force to prevent
his being lynched by the excited and flu
rated people.

4 Family Burned 10 Death.

Early Friday morning several frame
buildings, once used as government stables,
ana a rope walk adjoining, three miles south
of Louisville Kentucky were fired and near
ly consumed. A negro named Willis, his
wife and four children, living in one of the
houses were all burned to death except
Willis, who is not expected to recover.
Two of the suspected incendiares have
