A sPUNKY DAUGHTER.

They have smart girls iu Toledo, ac-
cording to the following story which
comes from that city: "A man in Toledo,
having wife and three children, became
enamored Of an intriguing woman, aud
procured divorce in an obscure Indian
town. He did not soy a word about it
at home. One day his oldest daughter
received o parcel of patterns from lady
in Indianapolis. 1t was IN old copy Of
q country newspaper. An advertise.
ment attracted her attention. 1t was an
application for q divorce for her father
from her mother. The young lady de-
cided to visit her friend in indianapolis
and to make al excursion to the coun.
try where tho divorce had been granted.
She returned with ample evidence that
her mother was living with divorced
man. She showed her father copy Of
the advertisement, and told him that
she had found out all about him. lie

equal to the emergency. The twentieth
anniversary of her parents marriage
was close at hand. She invited all her
friends and had them married again by
the same minister who performed tho
ceremony twenty years before. She
took pains to have her mothers rival
present, and remarked to her in a corner:
Papa and mamma are married again as
fast as the law can do it. Whether the
truth is ever known depends upon You.

ROBINSON ORUsOE's LAND.

Bays and girls, as well as children of
a larger growth will be interested in
the tidings that Robinson Cluso's island
has recently been rented of the Gillian
government by one Herr Won Rodt, the
son of a Protestant pastor at Bcrne.
Won Rodts career has been somewhat
adventurous one, and he would appear
every way n worthy successor Of Suan
Fernandez, the original castaway re-
chisened by Defoc in his immortal iic
tion. In his twenty first year Won Rodt
entered the Austrian service as a lien,c-
nant Of cuirassicrs, fought ga!lant]y in
the lSG6 campaign, was 50 severely
wounded at Nachod that lie was com
PEELED to quit the army, and settled
down on Il small pension in Paris after
the peace of Nikolbourg. When the
Franco Prussian war broke ont he volun-
tecred into a French regiment and dis
tinguished himself by conspicuous valor
during the fierce fight At Champigny.
In lS7l emigratcd to. Chill, where he
engaged in business 50 successfully that
he was enabled q short time ago to pur-
chase q steamer and carry over q small
colony Of agricultuists and stockmen to
his island, of which he had obtained a
long lease from the republic. There he
raises cattle and vegetables wherewith
to supply the whaling ships with fresh
provisions, and governs his subjects in
truly Crusonian manner, serving out
their rations in person, and exercising
q patriarchal control over their morals
and manners.

Riot Threatened on Cane God

Boston, Oct. 19.-Gov. Long has received a
telegram from Sandwich, stating that the
Italian labOrers employed on the Cape Cod
canal are riotous, and aski ng for assistance to
suppress them. The governor has ordered the
chief of the State police to 60 at once with his
men to Sandwich. The trouble is believed To
have grown out of the non- payment of wages.
Later information is to the effect that the town
is in complete possession of the rioters. The
entire district police left for Sandwich this
afternoon.
Dispatches from Sandwich tonight report
that tbs contractors for the Cape Cod canal
are still without money. At noon, TODAY. n
large crowd Of excited Italians gathered in
front of the Central house, where the con-
tractors were stopping, shouting for money.
For short time there was a prospect of very
serious trouble. The town authorities increased
the police force by swearing in thirty special
police. and the Italians were pacifed. The
condition of the Italian laborers is repre-
sented as deplorable, and fears are entertained
that unless they are furnished with their
wages tomorrow an outbreak will ensue, as
the most desperate of them persist in threat
ening that they will take revenge upon parties
by whom they expected to be paid

Cutting Affray Over the River.

may cripple the victim for life. About (
O'Clock dr. unken German engaged in dis
pute with Mr.. Nicholas Robholtz, in the las

The cash bled freely and it was some time
before the flow of blood could be staunched.
The blade penetrated to the bone and fears
are entertained of serious results. The per-

was too drunk to give his name, was arrest
ed by Officer Bremen and hauled to the sta
ton in wagon.
Last night he was in drunken stupor
and could not be aroused from sleep.

A SMALL BOYS DEATH.

His Head Crushed In an Elevator ut the
Pioneer Press Building-An Unknown
Waif.
There is something very touching and pathe
tic in the circumstances of the lads death who
was killed by means of the deadly freight ele.
vator at the Office of the Pioneer Press yester.
day afternoon. 1t were difficult to look at the
piuched features and behold the marble pallo,
of the young face without feeling some touch
of pity. 1t has been beautifully said, by the
author of Les Missrables. that innocence is az
august in the rags as in the feur de lys, and
felt for the little waif whose life
went out in such grim manner yesterday af-
ternoon.
He gave the name of Wilbur, said he was ten
years old and came from Maine, but there was
trace of delicacy in the fine features which
showed that at no very distant date in his brief
span of life he must have been somebody q
dearly idolized darling. He had no first name
SO far as the world knew, and he was called
Tom, Dick or Harry. and as 1t made precious
little difference to society about his name or
destiny when alive society will not cry its
eyes out now that he ia dead.
Last Thursday night, when the lights blazed
and the music rang and the elegant speakers
regaled their hearers at the Pioneer PraeS office
with the news from Indiana. this lean and
famished little waif crept away from the &C
claims and the melody and oratory of the oc-
casion, and seeking retired corner in the
building, he fell asleep. He was found here
by an attache of the counting room and aroused
from his slumber. He gave the name of Will
bur. said he had no parents. Was 10 years old
and was from Maine He was given square
meal and place to sleep. since when he has
been doing odd turns about the building.
A few minutes before O'Clock yesterday
afternoon he boarded the elevator at the base
ment intending to ride to the tcp story. The
elevator had reached the landing of the ground
floor when young Wilder stuck his head for.
ward and almost instantly it came in contact
with the top of the door.
The lads head was fright
fully mashed and death was instantaneous.
The mangled form was picked up and tenderly
laid to one side to await the action of the
coroner.
Since writing the above it has been ascer-
tanned that ths boys name was Melber W. w.
Wilbur. He and his mother came to Minneso-
ia from Maine about two years ago. shortly af.
ter which the latter died. leaving her boy to
drift on the world alone.
Coroner Davenport inspected the elevator
and after hearing the details of the accident he
decided that it was not necessary to hold an in.
quest. The remains were removed to Leigh'e
establishment on West Third street. and will
be buried to-day. Mr.. Nv. 81. Wimbish, in
charge of the mail room of the paper, has gen.
erously volunteered to defray the funeral ex.
penses. Mr.. Wimbish had quite an attach
ment for the bright little fellow, and regarded
him very highly.

Part of Mrs. Williams hair was pulled out and
it's supposed she started to escape and he
caught her (she was his sister, by the hair and
dragged her back. Though an extraordinary
strong woman she was no match for the mani
ac. The old folks being feeble they could make
little resistance. The back of Mrs. Williams
head was pounded in and
her teeth knocked out, her
skull broken in over the left eye, and her lips
cut open. Mr.. Parks head was pounded up,
one arm broken and probably his neck was
broken. Mrs. Parks head was crushed in the
same SIS the others. The dead body of Blake
was found in the barn, suspended by the neck
with rein taken from some horses.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams had intended to 60

Mr.. Parks was married to Mrs. Blake

much respected. Blake was short and
thick set and about $50 pounds. There hai
been no such excitement here since four years
ago when Wilder killed his rather and mother
and then killed himself, two miles south oi
