The DEVIL GETS Hrs DUE.-On Sun
day, the 18th ult.. in the town of Maple
Grove, in Manitowoc county, singular
and fatal occurrence took place. Ii being
Sunday the people of the neighborhood
had generally gone to church, leaving,
as is the custom, only one or two of
family at home to guard the premises.
At the house when it occurred, only a
boy OF about twelve years old was at
home. A man went 10 the house CON-
pletely enveloped in beef hide, with
horns, tail. and all complete, and SO fit
ted that nothing else could be seen. 1t
was known in the neighborhood that the
occupants OF the house had money, and
there was there at the time about 5000
on the premises. The man disguised in
the hide told the boy that he was the
devil, and that he bad come after his
money, ard that the boy must give
it to him. The boy answered that
he would not give the money. The
devil then told the boy that he would
kill him if be did not bring out the
money. The boy then stepped into the
house as if he was about to comply, but
instead of bringing the money he brought
! gun and shot the man dead. The boy
then ran to the nearest neighbor. and
finding only woman there, told her that
he had shot the devil. The woman wen.
with the boy, and found that the devil
whom the boy had shot was her husband

A TRAGIC SToRY.-The Arizona Enter
prise OF May 10th publishes the follow
ing tragic story abont ex-Nevadans
which occurred in that Territory: John
Haley, of Stems Mountain, Grant coun-
ty, Oregon, became acquainted at Win.
nemuccs with a man named Charley
Cleves. They came with Suliyan's party
to Arizona and located a ranch near Bill
Williams Mountain Haley owned some
very fine horse stock The two were, to
all appearances, fast friends. A few
weeks ago Haley very mysteriously dis
appeared. Soon after this party Of
Mormons from Utah camped in the
neighborhood and Cleves exchanged
Haley's horse stock to them for cattle.
He told the Mormons he felt lonesome
and asked permission to camp with
them, which was granted. He stayed
with them until Sunday. the 9th inst,
when he committed suicide by shooting
himself with rifle through the head,
The circumstances point to terrible
story. Jerry Sullivan describes Cloves
as quiet, inoffensive man, with occas-
ional intervals Of insanity, or something
nearly approaching it. The inference
from the events which trauspiEed is tina.
Cleves killed Haley while in a state of
insanity. and that remorse for the horri-
Bile deed led him to seek the company of
the Mormons, and to his subsequent
suicide. Mr.. Sullivan leaves to-day to
investigate the facts of the case, bat this
probably is the true theory

The Mate Shot Dead-Arrest and Impris.
onment of the Mutineers.
WASHINGTON, May 30.-The q. s. Consul at
Havre reports terrible and unwarrantable
mutiny on the American brig G. G. Sweeney of
Harrington, Me-, on the 10th inst, few hours
after she left Havre. 1t appears that four out
six men refused to obey the order of the mate,
Henry Harris, and made an attack upon him
with revolvers, killing him instantly. They
then attempted to assassinate Capt Cole, the
master, and the second mate, who escaped by
barricading themselves in the captains cabin.
Through the energy and courage of the cook,
steward and two of the crew, who were loyal
to the officers, the vessel was got back to Havre.
Upon visiting the vessel with the chief of police
the consul found the body of the mate mutilat-
ed with pistol bullets. The mutineers were
placed in irons and at once sent to prison. The
witnesses remaining on board are under a
police guard, awaiting the action of the French
authorities, who claim the jurisdiction of the
case, as it is charged by the French pilot, who
was on board at the time of the mutny, that
the mutineers fred upon him.

Turkish OutrRges.

LONDON, May, 31.-The Times special from

tackled an island in the Drina, on Servian ter
working in the fields, and killed several of
them. They carried off the cattle and some oil
the people. The Servian government has sent
a commission there. Tie Servian preparations
are not such as favor the idea that Prince
Milan will permit himself to be carried away
by the popular pressure. At least it may be
assumed that that neither the government moi
the Prince is likely to decide before the return
of the latter from Ploesti.
