nate girl had been most ioully murdered, her
head being nearly severed from her body by
blows from an axe.
The absence OF youth EN- ployed on tho farm,
named Christian KIutz soon excited the aus
piclon that he might have heen the murderer,
and search was at once Instituted for him, and
his arrest was soon effected. He at FIRST denied
all knowledge OF The murder, but close ques

alone was guilty Of the crime. The suspicious
were further corroborated by tho discovery OF
blood stains on his clothing, which he had

THE SAGACIOUs LOBSTER.
A story about the Oyster-Enting Lobsters on
the Escuminac Beds.

Down at Escuminac, which Is on the
southeast side OF the Mirimchi, there is an
oyster bed known only to one Harrington,
locally known as stormy, on account OF dirty
weather invariably following his visits, with
oysters to sell, to Chatham. He had gained a
great reputation on account OF the superiority
OF his oysters, but during the past two years
those he has brought to market nave not been
quite up to the marx. Last season, however,
lie gave hls theory OF the cause Of
the deterioration. He says that not far
from the oyster bed there Is gravel knoll
formed by an EDDY on the edge OF the channel
Of the Mirimichi. Happening to scan the bot
tom OF THIS knoll with his water glass, he OBJ
served several large Holsters. Two OF them
were Just leaving 1t, each having in one claw IA
directed the lad who was with him TO scull the
boat along IN tho direction taken by the lob
stor, aud one he was particularly watching

II approached large oyster, which, on
feeling the water stirred, Immediately
closed Its shell. Inc lobster lay, however,
with the pebble poised In Its claw, and
within half an inch OF the thin emo Of the oyster
shell, anu In two or three minutes ttpe latter he
gan to open again. As soon as II had opened
sufficiently, tue lobster, with quick move
ment, darted the pebble Into the open shell,
rendering the oyster powerless to close IT, Inc
animals feeeTs were then used to extract the
contents VI tue shell, which II ate quite dellbe-

operation on The next oyster. Mr.. Harrington

About 5000 persons assembled on the

day was all that could be desired, and both clubs
were In fine condition. The previous game be-
tween these two clubs was won by the Mutuala-
8 to sand IL was thought that yesterdays game
would be close.
The Chicagos were the favorites with the bet
ting men, and In the pool room pools were sold
at s25 to $40 that they would win. The Mutuals
did not play up to their standard and the Chi
Cages had II all their own way from the start.
Spaulding's pitching bothered the Mutuals con-
.lderably and they did not hit to any effect,
while the Chicagos batted Mathews's usually
effective pitching all over the field. The Mutuals
got only four base hits In the game and the
Chcagos had fourteen.
Mr. Daniels, OF Hartford, was the umpire and
the Mutuals went first to the bat. After two
men were out Treacey got to third base on bad
throw by Ansen. and base hit by Hallihan sent
him home, scoring one run for the Mutuals in
two-base hi by white gave the Chcagos an

Is indsposed to furnish the article, the end Is
attached to piece OF wire which II doubled into
two parallel lengths the distance apart exceed
ing little the diameter OF the instrument. As
the spider hangs and descends from this, the
web Is wound upon IL by turning the wire
around. The coils are then gummed to the wire,
and kept for use required. II Is n well known

and OF "a beautiful gray color. Other attempts Of
tho same kind have been made; but Reaumur,
who was appointed by tho Royal Academy to In
vestigate the subject, stated that tho web Of tho
spider was not equal to that of the silk worm,
either In strength or lustre. The cocoons of the
latter weigh from three to four grains, 80 that
