A Fiend's Horrible Crime
HOW A COLORADO MOB TERRIBLY
AVENGED A TERRIBLE DEED.

AN hNdEO n TEhhlBLE DEED.
DENVER, Col, Oct. l9.-The Tri
bune has information from Hereford
County that Antonio Mestes, a Mex
lean, murdered his wife and babe
most horribly a few days ago. He
first knocked the woman down with
a club, and then seized knife, and
with it savagely lacerated her body,
cutting out immense pieces of flesh.
He then deliberately ripped open
the womb and took the still living
child from it, which he dashed to the
floor and stamped upon until life
was extinct. After this he tore the
body of his wife almost apart, aud
after further mutilations fed.
He was found near his old home, and
placed in ,he schoOlhouse for safekeepinp
with guard of two men. 1t having be-
come generally known that he had been
overtaken, and his whereabouts being
ascertaned, a body Of sixty men was
soon got together, who marched to the
schoolhouse about 10 o'clock at night
and taking him out proceeded TO ad
minister punishment TO him for his
crimes. His body was mutulsted In
precisely the same manner as was his
wife's. His scalp was then lifted, aud d
rope tied about the mans heck, the
other end being attached to the horn Of
saddle. He was then dragged about
on the ground until the body was entire
ly unrecognizable.

LOSS OF THE STEAMER ALPENA--NoT
A SURVIVOR TO TELL THE TALE,
CHICAGO, H., Oct. 10, 1880.
There is now no longer any reason
to doubt the total loss, with all on
board, of the passenger steamer Alpe-
ma. of the Goodrich line, which has for
many years piled between Chicago and
various ports ON the eastern shore Of
Lake Michigan. The steamer is now
more than three days and a half over

evening, October IS, she should have
made her dock at Rush street bridge,
in this city, ON Saturday morning, o.
tober 16.

In accordance with her invariable
custom, the Alpena touched at Grand
Haven on Friday evening and took on
a few passengers aud SOME freight, clear
ing from thai port about nine O'Clock. :.
Pm. She was next sighted BY the
steamer Muskegon, also Vt the Good
rich line, about midway OF the lake Al
one o'clock on Saturday morning show
ing hat tue Alpena had, proceeded thus
far without accident or delay. The
weather was warm and fine, the lake
was smooth and all on board antici pated
q pleasant trip
THE PEOPLE ON BOARD
The number Of people on board the
Alpena is estimated al over eighty, In
Guiding t.irty-three passengers, thirty
hye deck ha IDS and a full complement
of othcers. No complete list OF passeD-
gels was kept either at M Muskegan or
Grand Haven, and In consequence tue
nan es of all the lost are not Ut hand.
WRECK OF THE SCHOONER GRENADA
STORY OF THE TWO SURVIVORS.
CHICAGO, Oct. 10. q"
A dispatch from Muskegon says
there is not a vestige left of the schoon-
er Grenada, which went to pieces of
shore there. The only survivors are
VIM. Bissell, the mate, and Angus
Tinkiater, the captains brother. The
latter reports that the vessel left Chi
cago with smart breeze Friday night,
but the steering apparatus SOON be-
came worthless and the schooner was
at the mercy of the waves, and the
storm hourly increasing in violence
Saturday noon the steward and sail
or died of exposure and he himself
prayed for death.
LAND SIGHTED.
Sunday at noon land was sighted
and they began to make raft. One
sailor was caught between parts of the
rocking vessel and was nearly crushed
but he was wrapped i'll canvas and put
on The raft. Waves washed him over
board. The captain lost his hold by
the breaking of the raft aud wa.
dlowned when near the shore. Tink
later held on for a while and theI
sw am ashore. All the rest of the crew
(the number is not stated) were
drowned.
