The ..NIan Eater, Shot.

STALLION THAT HAS KILLED THREE
MEN AND DIsFIGURED TWENTY 9TH
ERs.
MlDDLErowN, N. Y May 3.-'The Ham
bletonian stallions' Rising ham, zone of the
finest bred horses in Orange county, was
killed by his owner. DIR. j. A. Schultz, in
this place last night. This horse was
was once refused for him. AT two years
of age he was considered the coming
successor of old Hambletonian, his sire.
Nineteen years, ago, however, he began
to exhibit signs Of viciousness that in
creased as he grew older. Finally he be-
came almost entirely unmanageable, and
since then he had been known as the
"man eater" He had killed three men,
and wounded, crippled, ana disfgured
twenty others. For fourteen years no
one dared to put him to a wagon until a
short time ago. Dr. Schultz, who had
owned him but a short time, with the aid
of several men, got him in harness and
to a wagon, and tried to drive him. 1t
was dear experiment.. The stallion
broke everything to pieces, and the Doc
tor was himself saved by the merest
chance. Many of the leading horse
trainers of the country had tried their
skill at subduing him. He conquered
them all. and nearly killed one of them
One of his latest exploits was the seizing
of negro groom who had undertaken
to keep him, tearing off the mans right
cheek and destroying the eye, and strip
ping the flesh from his right arm. The
groom became blind and paralyzed. The
three men who preceded the negro as
grooms all narrowly escaped with their
lives. One lost an ear; another had
three fingers and thumb taken off; the
third left his arm from the elbow in the
jaws of the horse. 1t became impossible
to get groom for the stallion. No enc
knew at what moment the brute would
attack him. DIR. Schultz at last made up
his mind that Risingham was chronically
insane, and concluded to kill him before
he claimed another victim.
As Risingham stood in his stall glarng
over the manger at the spectators who
had entered the stable TO see the man
eater die, five large pistol balls were shot
into his head, directly between his eyes.
They failed to bring him down, and, ut
tering the fiercest of neighs, he made
frantic efforts to get over the manger
among the bystanders. AS man drew
the attention of the horse away, DIR.
Schultz, by a skilful thrust of a long
knife, severed his jugular vein, and the
blood spurted out in large stream. For
a leng time Rislngham stood up under
the great flow of blood, relaxing no ef-
fort to get at the men At length he set
ed his fierce disposition. The last move-
ment he made was to attempt to seize
I'r. Schultz with his teeth, tho Doctor
having gone into the stall. Horsemen
say that but for the temper of this horse
he would have been worth $4,000. His
skeleton Is to be set up in DIR. Schultz's
office.

What Joe COburn is DOfnx.
From The Rocherster Unlon.


Joe Coburn, the pugilist, is laying
brick in the State prison at Auburn. A
recent visitor to the prison, who was
familiar with the lax discipline that for
merly prevailed there, says that all that
has passed away, and that Instead of
convicts being treated leniently, they
are compelled to observe the strictest
rules that are enforced in any State
prison. No conversation is allowed be-
tween the prisoners, and such thing as
idleness is unknown within the walls.
There is no employment at any useful
work for about eight hundred men but
instead of allowing them to remain in
complete idleness, they are compelled,
and In gangs, to drag heavy roller
back and forth on road inside the pri-
son walls. There have been instances
IN this and other counties of the State
where convicts have asked as favor to
be sent to Auburn instead of to the peni-
tentiary, for it was said among criminals
that imprisonment in the former place
was mnch the easiest. 1t is evident that
they can no longer desire to be sent
there as choice.

THE EOsry EUeninp and Commercial ex-
presses surprise that the editor of the
GAZETTE should be member of the
Democratic State Central Committee. 1t
says:
Gle edits paper distinguished for
hostility to the ab1est and most honored
Depocrats of the State. We are sur
prlsed to see his name in the list of a
Democratic State Committee"
That is mistake which that hernia
phrodite sheet has put in print for
lying purpose. The GAzBTTE has not
shown "hostility to the ablest and most
honored Democrats of the State" 1t is
true that the editor of the GAzBrTB did
favor the passage of the Congressional
enactment which restored silver coin as
a legal tender, as it existed from the
foundation of the Government until in
1873 bill was surreptitiously passed
both Houses making gold the only legal
tender, dor this WAS its effect and obiect)
paper not being an acknowledged or un-
questioned constitutional legal tender
Ihe GAZETTE took this ground in con.
formity with the Democratic State plat
form which only reafiirmed the National
Democratic platform, early in the dIs.

congress assembled in December. How

endure the foul abuse which the yenal
and filthy organ, T.. T.. and Com. heaned
upon us to do US injury. 1t knows and
those connected with it know that the
character of the editor of the GAzErrB
is unsullied; is more free from tarnisb
than that of any connected with that
slanderous paper. In period of thirty-
seven years as editor and proprietor, we
have never been charged with immoral
conduct. We regret that we are required
TO refer TO ourself. But our city has
largely changed in population, and there
are thousands who may be deceived by

mean what we say and the pettifogger
who recently got out an injunction and
endeavored to blackmail a citizen into
paying the costs is one of the detestable
characters, who deserves to be castigated
IN the streets as severely and roughly as
was the ostensible editor of that sheet a
year or so ago.
Ihe Eeery Eoeping and Commercial has
used Senator Bayard's name for its own
dirty purpose. He never authorized its
abuse or censure of the GAZETTE; nor

How Secor Robeson Got Rich
From the Philadelphia Record.

TOIH UHe FhlIaueIphla Rtcord.
1t appears that the late Secretary made
"open purchases" of favorites to the
amount of more than $4,000, 900 wheh
the law positively required him to advet-
tlse for proposals and competitive bidJ.
This was magnificent sum to distri butb
among few friends, and must havb
yielded them very handsome profit-
No wonder that he grew rich, whatevef
may have happened to some of the1b
since, and it is not strange that the e4
Secretary is now among the most wealthy
