Another Shocking Crime in Illinois.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, Nov 4.-This neighbor-
hood is greatly excited over an outrage and
robbery committed four miles west of this
city to-day Mr.. and Mrs. Isaac Darst in the
morning left their farm residence in charge of
Miss Mamie Barton, their niece. and came to
Bloomington. On returning at p. M, they
found her fast in chair by ropes made OF
strips of linen which she had
been sewing, and insensible from exhaustion
and fright She recovered sufficiently to re-
late that while she was sewing two men en-
tired the house, seized her, choked her an
ed her in the chair, and after chloro orming
her robbed the house. Examination showed
that only few dollars in money was m ssing.
Mics Barton is in precarlous condition from
the terrible experience. Should the perpetra.
tors of the outrage be caught the populace
would make short work of them. They were
quite hard looking cases and evideatly we're
from some city and experts in crime.

Yesterday afternoon Mrs Griffin, the keeper
OF disreputable house, was arraigned at the
instance of the notorious Kate Jones, charged
with committing an assault and battery upon
the latter in the formers house. Mrs. G.
pleaded not guilty and waived jury. Several
witnesses were examined for the state and for
the defendant. Mrs. Jones was as glib as
usual in her testimony. She had been
knocked down, stamped upon, had her hair
pulled, etc, ETC., by Griffin. Judge Cooley
found the woman guilty, and imposed a fine
of SIS and costs, the whole amounting to
$3.50, which she paid. The judge stated that
if he was called upon to pass upon another
case of the kind he should take away her
saloon license upon the ground of her sustain
ing disorderly house.

Fatal Result of a Heartless Joke.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 4.-Amella Pobl, glove
maker, 40 years old and hunchbacked, COM
mitted suicide last night, taking dose of
paris green The cause Of the suicide was Gu
rious. Those who worked with her told her
a young German was in love with her, and he
as joke pretended to have an affection for
her. She became passionately fond of the
young man and her affection became source
of merriment to her fellow workers. A day
or two ago she asked him if he would not
marry her. He told her no, she was too old
and deformed and that he did not care for her.
She was thus wakened from her dream, be-
came depressed, bought paris green and ended
her life, leaving three notes unsigned COM
