A Drunken woman's Miserable Death.

A wretched woman named Mary Long.
horn died on Monday night At No. l99
Flatbush avenue. Brooklyn, after giving
the police a singular story as to the cause
Of her death She said that she was re-
turning home early on the morning Of
Friday, June s, from Wembergs saloon,
No. Al Bowery, and when in. .Catharine
street, in this city, was approached by a
young man who tried to persuade her TO
accompany him. She refused, and he
kicked her in the abdomen and ran
away. She informed a policeman, and
he started after young man in sight and
returned with him, clubbing him. as he
resisted; but she told the ohncer the man
was not her assailant She said she went
into a drug store for aid before going
home She had since been very ILL., The
police on investigation found the story
for the most part untrue. No officer
stationed on Catharine street had seen
her, nor had she been in any neighbor-
ing drug store. She left Wembergs sa-
loon about noon very drunk. IL is sup
posed that she received her wounds in a
drunken quarrel aud fabricated this story
to save her real assailant from detection.
No notification Of the woman's death was
