The AWFUL CHARGE AGAINST REV. a. II.
HAYDEN-The Come cticut Murder Musterv.
The clergyman suspected of the murder of
Mary Stannard, at Madison, Conn, has been
arrested. He Is the Rev. III H. Hayden, of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, with whom
the murdered girl had lived, and with whom,
1t is said, she had been too intimate He at
tended the funeral of the girl, and after il CON
doled with the family. AS the story goes, some
time In March or April an oyster supper was
given at the Methodist parsonage, occupied
by MIR. Gibbs, and Mrs. Hayden scared the
services OF Mary Stannard TO stay at the house
while She was away. Mr.. Hayden had that
day been to South Madison and on his return
told his wife that he was too fatigued to at
tend the oyster party, and would remain at
home. His wife went to the Parsonage, and
he stayed at home. Within day or two after,
Mary told her sister that she had been dis
graced by the minister on that evening. Last
Sunday she intimated an intention to destroy
her own life rather than suffer public disgrace.
On Tuesday Mr.. Hayden went to Middetown
and upon his return stopped at the Stannard
house and got a glass of water. Mary was
there, and went Immediately afterward to the
spring about halfway between her house and
the clergyman's, for fresh pail of water On
her return she told her sister that he was to
meet her later in the day. Early In the after
noon she left the house to go, as she said, i'm
search OF berries In the woods where her body
was afterWard found.

HOW THE DEPOsITORS WERE DECErvED.-A

Cal, as appears from the following statement
in the Record OF that place:-"While colOred
man was engaged in cleaning out the rubbish
which had accumulated in the premises form
erly occupied by the Dime Savings Bank, he
came across 40 parcel, of what he supposed
were $2O rolls of silver, whereupon he informed
those for whom he was working that he had
struck bonanza which would pay as well as
Sierra Nevada stock. and which amounted TO
SoOO. VI course there was considerable anxiety
on tfe part of his employers to see where the
coin was WhereupOn the cOlOred man showed
them the rolls which he had found laid away 10
one corner. An investigation followed, and
can better be imagined than described when
1t was ascertained that the rolls consisted of
lead pipe of the diameter OF half dollar, done
up in brown paper wrappers. 1t is a sample
OF how the Dime Bank managers gulled the
public day after day by making display o.
