Driven Mad by His ,Wife's Inideliry

Driven Mad by His ,Wife's InfideIiry.
A terrible tragedy is reported from
New York, as the outgrowth of a
wife's affections being alienated from
her husband, causing frequent quar-
rells between the couple, and finally
the murder Of one of their children
and the death Of the father by by his
own crazy act. For q year or two
past Ftenchman named Deffarge,
who had fair business as druggist,
has been jealous of the attentions his
wife received from other men, and
frequently expostulated with her, but
in vain. Recently their relations have
been SO unpleasant that he concluded
to take his abode apart, leaving their
two children with the mother. On
the day of the crime he visited his
former home, appearing quite cheer
full, and there was nothing unusual
about his manner. He asked the SER
want to go upstairs and bring down
the little girl, and she complied. He
seated himself in chair and received
the child in most affectionate man
ner, fondling and kissing her. He
told the servant to return up stairs
and bring down his little boy. She
dressed the child and brought
him down, when lie was received by
the father with marks of affection.
Once again Deffarge requested the
servant to go upstairs this time to
tell his wife that he wanted very much
to see her. His wife was in bed, and
said she did not want to get up then,
and, moreover, would not see him
anyway. After about fifteen minutes
the servant returned down stairs
with this message, and was Mortified
to find the father and his two chill.
dren stretched out on the floor of the
kitchen, the children in commissions
and foaming at the mouth and Def
farge dead. One of the children was
saved by means of an emetic, but the
other little innocent died in great
agony.

A Colorado lawyer didn't admire
the Judge before whom he was trying
case the other day, and referred to
him as an "ass trying to MUNICH
hay" The court fined him five dol
lars for contempt, but remarked at
the same time that he would remit
the fine provided tho attorney would
apologize. The lawyer went through
his pockets, and finding but half the
amount required, said "Ahemi ! I'LL

the ass. Here is e2.59, Iedge."

long series of hidden crime. Upon
this assurance he told of the Hendon

long series of hidden crime. Upon
this assurance he told of the Hendon
outrage and implicated H. Alphonso
Davis and Henry Andrews, two
young white men of respectable pa
rentage and connection, and Lewis
Carlton, a colored man about thirty
years Of age, as his accomplices.
They were all arrested and examined
before magistrate, and the evidence
was deemed sufficient to justify their
committal without bail to Orange
County Jail.
They had their trial before Judge
Kerr at the fall term of the court, the
trial consuming four days of the term.
They were web defended, and as ably
prosecuted, and on Saturday even
ing ofthe court the jury took the case,
and in very few minutes returned
with verdict Of guilty, as charged
in the bill of indictment. Mr.. G.. T..
Parrish, of counsel for defence, NOV
ed in arrest of judgment, that after
the jury had retired, it had come to
his knowledge that one Of the jury
was an infidel. The judge overruled
the motion, whereupon an appeal was
taken to the Supreme Court. The
case was heard in January, the judg-
ment of the court below was affirmed,
and ct the spring term of Orange Su-
perior Court they were sentenced to
be hanged on the I'd day of May. a
respite was subsequently granted un-
til yesterday, when they suffered the
penalty of q violated law, as above
set forth.-Charlottc 05seryer.

NEWS FROM THE FEDERAL CAPITAL
WASHINGTON, February 3, 1879.

WASHINGTON, February ., 1919.
Both the administration and Senator
Conkling have had all the delay they wished
for before the senate should vote on the New
York custom house nominations, and TO-
day will decide the question in the senate
Such extraordinary pressure has been
brought to bear on Democratic and Rcpuub-
lican senators by both Mcssrs. Hayes and
Sherman on one side and Mr.. Conking on
the other, that It is impossible to say what
the result may be. 1t has not however,
escaped attention that for several days there
have been new indication of confidence on
the part Of Secretary Sherman. 1t is not
believed either side will have more than one
or two votes to spare.
The heirs Of Gen. II. Z. Lee say now that
they do not wish actual possession Of the
Arlington estate to which the Federal
court at Alexandria lately declared them
entitled, but will be content with the money
value of the property.
On Saturday in the senate the debate on
Edmunds resolution was continued, Sena-
ator Morgan concluding his speech, and
Senator Edmunds briefly explained his
position. Many other senators will speak
on the subject. In the house the day was
spent in speeches on the general subject of
southern war claims. In the past week the
two houses have made no progress in
legislation, beyond increasing prior to final
passage, the several appropriation bills re-
ported by the house committee
We ought to be able to learn from the
confession of our enemies, but but we do
not seem able to do so. Here is Senator
Blaine, certainly good Republican author
ity, who says We waste millions of money
on the navy. So we do on the army.
So on thousands of officers in
the departments here, who may have
been necessary from 1861 to 1866, but who
have since then been SIMPLY in the way Of
public business. SO of countless officers,
whose mission is unconstitutional and un-
democratic, and who have been scattered
through the South for years to interfere
with state and local elections. There is not
an intelligent Democrat in congress who
does not bclic'c all these abuses exist, or

who could not make himself, by investiga-
ton, certain OF it. Yet during this session
no thorough reduction has been proposed,
and such as the Democratic members of
the house appropriation committee have
been able to agree on have been promptly
killed in Democratic house. II the
people Of the county could well
stand the present rate of taxation,
and those rates would meet the increasing
liabilities Of the government there might
be the excuse for this course. But every
body now knows that is impossible, and
that new sources Of income must be sought
out, and, unfortunately for the Democratic
party, it. and not the radical party, must
through control Of the 46th congress, impose
the the new burdens. For the remaining
three weeks of the session the Democracy
should act with this important fact before
them.
The social season Is at its height, and the
nights are gay with dinner parties, hops
and various other entertainments. Hard
times even have little adverse effect upon
Washington social lite.

ILLINOIS CHARITABLE EXPENDI
TIRES

The people of Illinois are beginning to be
a little curious about the cost of their pub
lie institutions. 1t is no wonder They
have been animated 10y the idea that one Of
the highest evidences of enlightenment and
growing refinement is a generous support of
the classes who are objects Of charity
and under the stimulus of this notion, the,v
have overdone the business, in all, in the
state which receive their support from
the public treasury-including the
prisons, the asylums, the hospitals
the correctional and educational establish
ments; and in Gov. Gullom's late
message, it was stated that expense of the
charitable and correctional institutions alone
for the last two years had been $l,S46,S
which is at the rate of over 100000 a
year. The expenses of the executive legis-
lative and judicial departments of the state
government for the same time were Sl,016-
342-or about 100000 year. 1t costs
nearly twice as much, therefore, to take
care of the recipients of public charity and
discipline in Illinois as to maintain the
three great departments of government.
The nine charitable institutions Of the State
ask for an appropriation OF 81 100000 for
the two current years.-S.. Louis Repub-
lican.

WASHINGTON, February 5.-George L..

is to be removed and A. S, Rodgers is nom
mated to succeed him. The president has
also nominated William L. Mcmillan as
post master at New Orleans.
THE REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.
Nothing was done at the caucus OF Re-
publican senators to-day except to arrange
for the order of business for the remainder
OF the session.
THE CoRBIN CONTEST.
There is likely to be a bitter contest in
the senate over the attempt to seat Corbin
as the Democrats signify their intention to
exhaust all expedients to prevent it, and
justify their action upon the ground that the
senate is not called upon to vote upon a
question that has been formally decided,
and that in any event Corbin is not entitled
to seat as there was not quorum Of the
Legislature voting at the time Of his cleo
ton.

with the probability of its passing.

OVER THE BANIsTHRs.

Over the bansters bends fair face.
DarinqIy sweet and beguillng.
Somebody stands In careless grace.
And watches the picture smiling.
The light burns dim In the hall below:
Nobody sees her standing,
Saying goodnight again, soft and slow,
Halfway up TO the landing.
Nobody, only the eyes Of brown.
Tender and full of meaning.
That smile on the fairest face In town.
Over the banistefs leaning.
Tired and sleepy, with dropping head,
/ wonder why she fingers.
And, when all the good nights are said,
Why somebody holds her fingers
Holds her fingers and draws her down,
Suddenly growing holder,
Till her loose hair drops It's masses brown
Like q mantle over bis shoulder.
Over the banisters soft hands fair
Brush his cheek like feather
Bright brown tressee and dusky hair
Meet and mingle together.
There's question asked, there's a swift ca
rpss,
She has flown like bird from the hail wa '
But over the banisters drups Eyes"
That shall brighten the world for him al
