Freaks of IL Nladmun.

Our readers will remember that at the
last term of the county court, NJ. A. Hitch
cock, who was indicted for crime, de-
faulted his bail, as no track of him could
be found when his case was called. For
several weeks past he has been residing at
the house OF brother in Plttsford, though
he has not appeared in public very often.
Last Monday afternoon he became sudden
ly deranged, and seizing razor made a
serious attack on some of the members of
the family. They succeeded IN escaping
from him, when he ran TO the barn and
Harvesting horse to IL wagon, started on a
run for Brandon, where his wife and
daughter now reside, closely followed by
L. l.. Sohofed and Daniel Austin, who
seized him just as he was on the steps of
his wife's residence. After Selling him the
razor was discovered in his pocket. If he
had not been captured it is feared that he
would have made murderous attack upon
the members of his family. lie was
brought to Rutland, Tuesday, and confined
IN the Jail for safe keeping, and unless he
regains his reason will probably be taken
to BfattleborO.

burning of L. g. Greene's stove and tin
store on Main street. A youngma In MIR.
Greene's employ frat discovered the fire up
stairs and gave the alarm. The engine
company on reaching the hydrant coupled
their hose, but soon found the water in
the hydrant frozen. They soon found
water at another hydrant. 1t seemed at
one time certain that the building must go,
as at that time the fire had come through
the root. The frozen bydrant having been
thawed out by the use of scaldiDg water,
four streams played upon the building a
portion of it was saved the fire caught

Shocking and MYSTERIOUS Murder
BosToN, March 90.

DOSlONy nluiCu -.
About nine o'clock last night the body
of Mrs. Mary Bingham, a sldow aged
about 80. was found in the cellar Of her
mothers residence at No.97 Webster street,
East Boston, under circumstances which
indicate that she was brutally murdered
although the matter is at present involved
in mystery. The body was found with the
feet lying towards the stairway, the face
fearfully bruised and presenting sickcn-
ing appearance The mouth was filled with
gravel, which was packed IN so solidy that
knife was required to remove it. In the
windpipe was found large stone which
was with difficulty removed. There were
several cuts upon the back of the head,
with one Or two in front under the chin.
There were also marks upon the neck, as
if she had been slrangled There were
spots OF blood upon the floor and walls, in
dicatng desperate struggle. Her false
hair was found short distance IRON the
body. A thorough investigation of the
affair will be made.
LATER
An investigation into the mysterious
death of Mrs. Bingham, at East Boston,
last night, establishes beyond doubt the
fact that she was murdered. The last seen
of her alive she went to answer the door
bell, and it is supposed she then admitted
her murderer A lamp was found in the
cellar, and as villainous looking man had
called two doors above and gained access
to the cellar, on plea of examining water
pipes, it is supposed the same man was
guilty of the murder, and that Mrs. Bing-
ham innocently accompanied him TO the
cellar to light his way. She is known to
have had money upon her person, and
this was taken, as well as four rings from
her fingers. The murderer evidently in
tended robbery as well as baser crimes IN
which he seemed to have been foled.
