ENGLAND.
WinsI0W, the Forger.

LONDON, February 10.-Itnow appears
that when the steamer Rotterdam was
approaching her destination Winslow,
the Boston forger, asked the Captain Of the
vessel II tho United States had.an extra
tion treaty with Holland? The Captain
replied that he thought that there
was such a treaty; This frightened
Winslow, who then concluded 10 come
to England. He left the steamer in
pilot boat and landed somewhere on the
Dutch coast. His wife, sister and son
went on to- Rotterdam. In order to battle
his pursuers he sent a telegram to his
wife bearing date at Brussels. Winslow
subsequently went TO Rotterdam and
thence came on to London. The clue to
his whereabouts was discovered by
interceptiug letter he addressed to his
wife telling her where to write to him.
The Dutch police state that Winslow by
writing letter signed with the assumed
name Of Clifton had brought himself
within the Dutch law as a suspicious per-
son. He could have been conducted 10
the German frontier. Hon. J. G. Bancroft
Davis had been Geographically ad-
yised to have a German officer there
ready to arrest him under the provision
Of the extradition treaty. A pocketbook
has been found upon WindsloW, in
which were inscribed the words "Mor-
ton Laferts, St. Louis, Mo"

Robert Henry Hurst Liberal, who

clared that this was bribery, and that
the election was therefore void.

Gil to-day decided the case Of Junkins VS..

But, to her great surprise, she heard not

Five Children Lost Within a Week.

A Massachusetts, paper says that IA
tality almost unprecedented in the his
tory of a single household occurred last
week in the family of Mr.. Reeves, North
Andover. One of his children died
Monday of diphtheria; second died
Tuesday. Friday two others died, and,
on Saturday. while the four who previ-
ously died were lying unburied In the
receiving tomb or at the house, the death
of the fifth child occurred. The funeral
service over the remains of all five of
the children was held at the same time,
and they were all buried together at the
cemetery. A sixth child, the only re-
naming one of the family, and the
father and mother, are now i'll with the
disease. The cause is believed to be de-
fective drainage.

Alligator Leather.

Between 1900 and 10000 alligator
skins are tanned yearly, which are con-
sumed by boot and shoe manufacturers
in every portion of the United States, as
well as London and Hamburg. The
alligators formerly came almost entirely
from Louisiana, and New Orleans was
the great center of business. The Flori-
da swamps and morasses are now the
harvest fields, and Jacksonville, in that
State, the great depot. The alligators
often attain length of eighteen to
twenty feet, and frequently live to a
very old age.

While his crop of rice was growing he

It was slow work, and his living was

A fortnight later Fred. Breese, pale
and thin, but free from fever, sat with
two gentlewomen in the piazza at Mid
dleten Hall. For some reason which
the doctor could never guess, his reme-
dies had begun to do their, proper work
on the very day on which the younger
of the two women, the black-eyed one,
had suggested that the sick man should
get well in time to keep Thanksgiving
with her on the last Thursday In No

thing to be thankful for and as she says
it she broods over the quaint old carven
