A WOMAN WITH ONE HUSBAND TOO MANY.
CLEVELAND, June 1S.-Early this morn
ing woman was seen to jump into the
river here near the water works. She
was rescued and kindly cared for, and
when sufficiently resuscitated she told a
strange story. Five years ago she mar
ried sailor named James Dyer, who soon
after shipped on the schooner Harvest
Home, which was lost on the voyage. Not
hearing from Dyer for two years, she sup
posed he was drowned, and married an
other sailor named Wallace Andrews, now
absent from home sailing on the lake. Two
weeks ago Dyer appeared, upbralded the
woman for being unfaithful to him,
and compelled her to live with him. She
tried to explain her relations with
Andrews, but her courage failed her, and
she became distracted. Dyer packed up
the household goods and shipped them to
Chicago, ordering her to follow, which
she refused to do. For the last three
nights she has slept none, trying to think
some way out of her perpleXity. Finally
she resolved upon suicide, with the result
as stated.
HARVARD, ILL, DAMAGED.
CHICAGO, June 1S.-The Times is told of
serious cyclone at Harvard, ILL.,, on the
Northwestern railroad. First reports
indicated that the entire town was de-
stroyed, but later though incomplete
reports say that though it was destructive
to property there was no widespread
calamity. Telegraphic communication is
cut off at present.
A MISSOURI RIVER HORROR.
KANSAS CITY, June 1S.-The number of
dead bodies found in the Missouri river at
this point recently has given rise to a
suspicion that there is an organized band
of thugs at work at some point on the riv-
er above here. A few days ago the body
of a young woman, entirely nude, was
thrown out of the current. Yesterday the
headless body of man was foud, float
ing, and to-day the body of a man with
his throat cut was found floating. A
few miles below the city. Previous to
finding these evidences of foul play, sew
eral other bodies were taken from the
river in this vicinity. The body of the
man was dressed in black with nothing to
identify him but handkerchief marked
in one corner with the initials "E. w.
and in another corner the letter 'K. :"
None of the bodies found have been
identified.
