Boston, Dec. ia horrible double tragedy
was enacted this afternoon at Charlestown.
VIM. H. Jones of Somersvile killed Mrs. y.
R. Barry at her residence, 56 School street,
Charlestown, and Immediately after cut his
own throat Jones was married and had grown
up children. The two families were very init
mate and considered highly respectable. The
deed was doubtless premeditated, as it was
done with a razor which he took with him from
his home in Somerville. There were no wit
nesses to the terrible affair, the balance of the
Barry family being absent at church. The
bodies were found about half past three o'clock
by son of the murdered woman. They were
lying upon the floor about four feet apart. Each
with the throat cut. No cause is assigned for
the act
Daring Burglary.
The residence of E. J. Nagle at East Boston
was entered by burglars at an early hour this
morning and $500 worth of clothing, ETC., and
stocks and bonds to the amount of $500 car
ried off There is no clue to the burglary,
which was most daring one.

was then Treasurer of the troupe,
suspected a girl who was employed
ut the hotel in the place whore they
were, and his suspicious were further
confirmed by her sudden disappear
ance. He managed, however, to get
track Of her, after some time had
elapsed, and worked up the case so
vel that she confessed to him that
she had taken the money to pur-
chase wedding ontit, aud that the
marriage was soon to take place.
She refunded half of the stolen mon

Ii after she married wealthy Eng-
ltsh gentleman who was engaged in
the lumber business in Chicago. Not
many years had elapsed when hs r
husband died, leaving hor all his
property A few months ago she nj
so died, and in her will she left to
Mr.. Miller the sum of 100000 as an
expression of her gratitude for not

Latest Dodge.

In ono Of our exchanges we notice
the foltowlng "a very ingenious
trick, by which q gang of swindlers
are making money by mutilating ma
tional bank notes of the denomina-
ton of five dollars, has recently come
TO our notice. The dodge consists in
making ten bills out of nine, and Is so
managed that'there is but one FASTING
to each OF the manufactured notes
The nine whole bills are taken, and
from the right of the first one tenth
is sliced off I; from the rigth of the
second two tenths from the right of
the third three tenths, and so on to
number nine, from which nine tenths
are taken from the right or what
amounts to the same thing, one tenth
from the left. Number one is pass
ed as it is, with tenth gone from
the right; the one tenth taken from
number one is pasted to the residue
of number two, from which two
tenths have bee, taken these two
tenths are made to answer the place
of three tenths taken from number
three, and so on through. Thus
nine five dollar notes arc completed,
leaving the original number nine,
with q tenth gone from the left, as a
tenth note. 1t will be seen that bat
a tenth is gone from each oil, and in
a different place on every one, and a
little ingenious pasting makes the
loss imperceptible 10 ordinary oh
