thus: IF you havn't been drinking and
will promise not to drink any more. I'll
let you press your lips to mine, which, as

days, subsisting principally on horse flesh. Four
hundred horses have been killed and abandoned
since leaving Rosebud. The sick and wounded
are doing well. Mejor Upham, with one hun
dred and fifty men OF the Fifth Cavalry, secuted
up Owl Creek. He found no Indians, but had
one man Killed and scalped while hunting away
from the detachment. Gen. Crook goes to Fort

Mrs. Rose Chatterton Of IS North Second

husband, Samuel, last night, in presence OF their
two children, John and Mary, aged respectively
thirteen and nine years. The family occupied
apartments on the third floor Of the tenement,
house ut the locality mentioned. The husband,
who is described by the tenants ns dissipated
person, has been out Of employment forsoms

port him and their children. Yesterday morn'
ing, az usual, she went out to wash. On return,
ing home of o'clock. she was mot, as she en-,
tered the room, by her husband, who, with
oaths. inquired where she had been.
The woman replied, adding that II would bs
we'll for them n he had absented himself for the
same purpose, instead OF spending bis time Ia
and about the groggeries." This taunt enraged
the already rum-crazed man, and he struck hei
down by u violent blow on the face. AS she lai
on tue moor he kicked her on tho head, face
and about the body. Tho terrified children
bid themselves In corner, and dared not
make an outcry. Once the poor woman
arose, and "a she staggered tcroas the room. the
blood pouring from great gaping cuts and gashet
ON her head and face, the infatuated brute seized
her 10y the hair and dealt her stunning blow
to tho door LEAD. lilo looked for a moment al
his victim. and then lifting her placed her on
| a bed. Espying the terrified children he ordered
| them from the room aud followed them to thu
street. The woman had been unable to IN aks
any great outcry, the first blow having stunned
her, and no one In the crowded house knew oi
! the terrible scene which was being enacted.
A out 10 o'clock a Mrs. Haunigan called to
| see Mrs. Chatterton. The room was unlghted.
On calling for the woman the little cir, who had.
an hour before. crept back from the street, an
swered that her mother was in bed. Mrs. Han
