TO BE TRIED FOR HIS LIFE.
A Harvard College Graduate Commits a
Double Murder for Revenge.

BosToN, January 29.-Several gentlemen
are about to start for Denver, to make an
effort to save from the gallows Charles w.
Stickney, young man and graduate of
Harvard college, whose brilliant attain
ments and chivalrous friendship made him
leading spirit among his associates in
this city his home. A few weeks ago the fact
was briefly chronicled that Montgomery +.
Campeau, a man of property in Denver,
Colorado, had been shot by an alleged
blackmailer, and that mis-aimed
bullet from the assailant's pistol
had killed Mrs. Deyereaux,
who happened TO be near the scene of the
tragedy. The story of wrong and of muir
derous revenge told by the friends OF the
young man who has done this foul deed
will in measure palliate his crime, evea if
it be not proved that he was insane. His
brief career has been peculiarly sad one.
On graduating with honors from Harvard a
few years ago he entered business, and was
remarkably successful. He met destitute
but brilliant German girl, was touched by
her sad history, and married her, his friends
say, from motives of chivalric pity. He
sent her to Germany to be educated, and
spent much money in fitting her for good
society. But she proved unfaithful, and
deserted him tn live with Montgomery +.
Campeau, a wealthy citizen of Denver, Her
husband obtained a divorce in Massachu-
sets courts. and, at the suggestion OF
friends, instituted suit against Campeau.
1t was settled by an agreement to pay $40,
600, of which $500 was to be paid in cash,
and note was given for the balance. But
soon aiterwar1 the wife was cast out in the
streets of Denver. She reached Chicago
with her child and in great distress APP
pealed to her former husband for help. He
forgave her, and took her again as his wife.
Learning Of this, the man who had wronged
them stopped payment on the note he had
given, accused the couple of practicing
blackmail, and it is alleged, procured the
publication of frequent newspaper items to
that effect. Stung at last beyond endur-
ance, and believing his wiies story that
by bold plot she was forced INTO
the company OF this man, the
young husband determined to avenge the
wrong both had suffered. He went in
search of his enemy, found him in April
last, and quickly made him the target OF
his pistol. The first shot killed Mrs. Dew.
ereaux, who happened to be standing near,
but with wonderful determination the in
censed husband pursued his work of re.
venge, and the next shot carried instant
death to his victim. Stickney was arrested
and his trial is to begin on February T.
The defence is insanity. Those who have
known him all his life say that he had a
number of mental peculiarities when boy.
His ideas of chivalry were sentimental and
extreme. One Of his teachers, one or two
of his classmates. a chum in college, and
certain of his relatives, make up the party
which goes from this city. Some of his as
sociates express great doubt as to his insan-
ity, but all agree that he received terrible
provocation. His wife is now living near
this city, New York Sun.

Tho Brsak-Their-Heart, Young Man.

There are certain youths in this day and
generation who consider themselves thor.
oughly proficient in the art susceptible.
They profess to know all about the hutter-
ings going on in the feminine breast. The
Break Their-Hearts Young Nan is one of this
class. He spends his time in crushing the
little hutterers of the opposite sex. His
only aim in getting acquainted is for the
purpose of demolishing the heart of his
newly-made friend. He considers it very
smart to pour out honeyed words and act in
sweet way so as TO gain the affection ofsome
unsuspecting girl. He breaks her heart,
or tries to-. for the fun of it. All the pain,
sorrow and sadness which may result from
his conduct do not trouble him in tho least
that is the business of the Break Their
Hearts Young Man. 1t is fortunate thing
that the ak-Their- Hearts Young Man is
very often unsuccessful. Only sentimental
girls, as general thing, are yictimized by
him. Sensible girls abhor him, or else toy
with him for the fun of it. He is left Sc
verely alone by those who know what af1ec-
ton really is. They see through him and
know him to be hollow mockery. His char
acter won't stand the least strain-it is too
hypocrtical and unstable. The Break-Their-
Hearts Young Man presumes he is COR
noisseur in lovc-making. He is in reality a
perfect ignoramus. His conceit leads him
to.suppose he conquers when he is defeated
He has no heart. If he wooes at all, he
wooes with his cheek. and if he wins at all
it is by means of his overdrawn assurance.
The Break-Their-H Hearts Young Man is a
fop, fool and flirt. Ii The was any one of
these without the others it would be bad
enough, but as combination of the three
he Is past endurance and ought to be broken
up.-[ Philadelphia Times.
