FouED-THEY ARE ARRESTED.
About two weeks ago Margaret Mitchell alias 'The
Queen" and Mary Hughes, two notorious London pick

of their pecuative industry. After strolllng for
several hours they reached pier 50 North River where
a steamer had just arrived and where people
were running about some to catch boat
and others to catch In this confusion as Mar
garet remarked TO her companion, they had 'allen in
with streak of good luck" As she said this her MIN

luck only like streak of color the evening sky
II quickly passed away. While they wero parading up
and down West street Detective Ferris noticed and
followed close behind them. At pier 81 he

Raising a Family.

About the year 100 one Lady Elphin-
stone died the mother of thirty-siX
BARNS, of whom twenty-seyen were liy-
thurst, of Norwich, was the tw%enty-siXth
child Of Mr.. Bathurst, youngest brother
Of the first Lord Bathurst. But this is
only part of the story; for Mr.. Bathurst,
who had had twenty-five children by his
first wife, was destined to have fourteen
by his second, making a good round
three dozen altogether. Rather distin-
guished in this way were the Bathursts ;
for two brothers and n sister of his had
during their respective married lives,
siXty-four children, which, with this
t~hirty-siX, made just an even hundred.
Another married couple, Thomas and
Helen Urquhart, are ranked among
those who have had thirty-siX children.
The parents lived at Cromarty Castle,
in the early part of the sixteenth cen
fury; their twenty-five sons all grew up
to manhood, and many of them became
distinguished, while the eleven daugh-
tiers all lived to be married, and many
of them to be the mothers of large fam
lilies. The Urquhart blood, therefore,
must have been rather extensively diff
fused in Scotland by the end of the cen
fury. An authenticated ease of thirty
nine brothers and sisters was afforded
by the Greenhill family, in the closing
year of the seventeenth century. Thorn
as Greenhill, IA surgeon, afterward au-
thor of a treatise on the cart of En-
balming, addressed in 1893, a memo
rial TO the Duke of Norfork, in his ca
pacity as Earl Marshal of England
THAT, in consideration of your petit
toner being the seventh son and the
%thirty-ninth child of one father and
mother, your Grace would be pleased to
signalize it by some particular motto or
augmentation in his coat of armor, to
transmit to posterity so uncommon a
thing" The College of Arms, or Heralds'
College, of which the hereditary Earl
Marshal is the official head, assented to
the application Of Thomas Greenhill by
granting an addition to the armorial
bearings of the family. In the language
of heraldry, which is not very intelligi-
BILE to our ideas, the addition was in the
form of a demi-griflin, powdered with
t%hirty-nine mullets.-AH The Year

KerOsene's Nictims---H0rribl Death OF
Three Persons.


The Denver NelDs of Oct. II has the
following: Never before perhaps were
the people of Canon City so impressed
with horror as on Friday evening, when
a peculiarly frightful accident occurred.
The facts, as gathered by a NelCS re-
porter from T. p. La Rue, express mes
senger on the Denver and Rio Grande
Railway, who was an eyewitness, are as
follows:
Miss Carrie Buckingham, a l2-year
old girl, who was stopping with her
sister, Mrs. Fred. Evans, attempted
about 6 O'Clock to start Il fire with coal
oil, when the can exploded, the fluid
hying all over her. In an instant her
clothes were ablaze, and before Mrs.
Evans, who was seated near, could rise
with her infant child, they too were en-
veloped in flames. The girl, Carrie
Buckingham, anOut into the street, ut
tering shrieks that rang from end to
end of the town. The fierce blaze
wrapped itself about her, and she was
rendered naked in the streets before
any one could reach her. Meanwhile
the flames were spreading in the house,
and Mrs. Evans and her babe were per-
ishing by the most agonizing Of deaths.
The fire, by almost superhuman eXer-
tions, was quickly eXtinguished, and
the mother and child were found in a
chair, literally charred. The clothing
had been consumed from both bodies
and not a hair remained on the moth
er's head. But what is most strange,
both beings-indeed all three-still
showed signs of life, though charred
and unacceptable. In this condition,
surrounded by Mortified friends and
spectators, the victims fingered along
for hours, the mother dying at 80
O'Clock, her sister at 10 80, and the in
FAINT at two yesterday morning.
Mrs. Evans was the wife of Fred Ev-
ans, formerly delivering agent for Wells,
Fargo & Co., at Colorado Springs, from
which place he but recently removed to
Canon City. The three bodies were
brought to Colorado Springs yesterday
for interment. Mr.. Evans was complete
" Frustrated by the awful stroke OF
aflliction.
The Pueblo Chiefaia adds the follow
inc narrowing details The mother lay
upon the floor, burned from head to
foot, n solid mass of burned flesh;
the sister on a bed, terribly burned,
and moaning in intense agony. The in
FAINT, three months old, was not supposed
to be so badly burned. Its cries were
heart-rending. The mother about ten
O'Clock asked for her husband. He was
called, and in a whisper she babe him
good bye. Frequently during the even
ing she whispered her wishes that she
might be given something to end her
misery and put her out of existence.
About ten O'Clock she died, and before
morning her child and sister died in in
tense agony. The scene at the depot,
as given us BY an eyewitness, was one
calculated 10 move a heart of stone.

LIKE the thief at night, Il steals IN upon
as uuHWarCs. The patients have pains
about the chest and sides, and sometimes in
the back. They feel duh and sleepy; the
mouth has a bad taste, especially in the
morning. A sort Of sticky slime collects
about The teeth. The appetite Is poor.
There Is d feeling like a heavy load on the
stomach, sometimes a faint, all-gone sensa-
ton at the pit Of the stomach, which food
docs not satisfy. The eyes are sunken, the
hands and feet become cold and feel clam
my. After awhile a cough sets in, at first
dry, but after a few mOntLs Il Is attended
with grCenish-C0lOrcd eXpeCtOration. The
patient feels tired all the while, and sleep
does not appear to afford any rest. After a
time he becomes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebodings. There is
a giddineSs, a sort Of whlrling sensation In
the head when rising up suddenly. The
bowels become c~ostiye, the skin is dry and
hot at times. The blood becomes thick and
stagnant, the whites Of the eyes become
tinged with yellow, the urine is scanty and
high-colOred, ~depOsiting a sediment after
standing. There is frequently a splitting up
Of the food, sometimes with a sour taste
and sometimes a swedish taste. This Is
frequently attended with palpitatiOn of the
heart. The vision becomes impaired with
great prostration and weakness. All of
these symptoms do not make their appear
ance at one time, but during the various
stages they are in turn present. 1t is
thought that nearly one-third of our popu-
lation has this disease in some of its varied
forms. 1t has been found that medical men
have mistaken the nature of this disease.
Some have treated it for liver complaint,
some for dyspepsia, Others for kidney dis
ease, etc, etc, but none Of these various
kinds of treatment have been attended with
success. 1t is found, however, that the
SHAKER EXTRACT OF RoOTs mot a patent
incidence when prepared properly, will re-
move the disease in all its stages. Care
should be taken to procure a good article.

Attention is made in the Naturalist OF
two cases of albiEism recently observed
in fishes. One was a paddock, taken Of
Barngat, May Z. The fish was thirty-one
inches long, and, instead of the usual
tints of brownish gray, its general hue
was a pinkish-white with a pearly luster.
The other specimen was a common eel
taken at Noank, Conn, in December,
1874. The colors of this were a dull,
pale yellow above, and nearly pure white
beneath. Instances of albinism are not
uncommon among European cells, but
they are seldom met with on our coasts
The museum of the Peabody Academy OF
Sciences contains a sample of both the
aforementioned albinOs.
