FROM BAD TO WORSE.
The Chequered Career Of the Niece
of a Vice-President Of the
United States.
Kansas City star.

Kansas City star.
Yesterdays Evening Star contained an
account of the operations i'm the far wesi
of a Mrs. {. r. Thomas, who hailed from
this CITY. This morning the husband OF
this woman called at this Office and gave
his version of their troubles. He says
Mrs. Thomas is daughter of Col. Bur
cess. a prominent citizen of Wheeling, W
Va. and a grand niece of the late Gen
John c. Breckenridge. of Kentucky, once
vice president of the United States. lie
Thomas was married to her al Richmond
Mo-, on Oct. -, 1873. He supposed al
that time that he would he her second
husband. but afterwards found that he wa.
the fourth, his three predecessors being all
living, all having been divorced. He
REMOVED TO THIS CITY
with his wife i'm Nav, 80, and lived here
with her until the 9th Of Feb, 1881, when
he caught her i'm bed at the Palace lodging
house, corner OF Fourth and Main streets
with a man named Stone, who was arrested
about that time for stealing velvet from a
Main street dry goods house, where he was
employed, which he had given his para
mour. Stone skipped out, and Mrs
Thomas applied in Judge Blacks court for
a divorce from her husband, alleging cruel
treatment, failure to provide, etc. Thomas
then filed cross petition for divorce
charging adultery with Stone. After that
Mrs. Thomas left for Denver, and Thomas
says that if she is professional abortion
list it is because she learned the art from a
well-known physician of this city, with
whom she seemed to be very friendly while
here. The divorce case viii! come up for
trial next month, before Judge Black, al
which time it is expected that some very
INTERESTING AND SENSATIONAL DEVELOP
MENTs
will be made.
Thomas saws that he and his wife were
both members of Calvary Baptist church
i'm this city, and that when she went west
she took letter from the church. After
wards he laid evidence of her misconduct
before the officers of the church and they
recalled the letter which prevented her
from uniting with any church in Denver.
The aft icted husband says that the first
trouble between him and his wife grew out
of her attempts to get him to deed his prop
erty to her, and that he thinks, i'm spite Of
her varied matrimonial experience, she
was virtuous woman until she met Stone,
by whom, he thinks, she was first seduced.
Apropos of her residence i'm Denver, and
the rumor that Jesse James is towering
about that city, Thomas saws his wife
would be able to identify him easily, as
the bandit used to take his meals at her
restaurant i'm Richmond, and she knows
him we'll.

Cured One but Killed the Other.

CurGQ Ou0 OuC Alll0o Lie OUu0T.
Mrs. Lulu NJ. Ellis, of Wellington, Has,
seeing that her husband, S. NJ. Ellis, to
whom she had been married but short
time. was rapidly declining in health, and
fearing that he was gradually succumbing
10 the dread disease, consumption, prevail
ed upon him to take a trip to Florida,
where she believed he would speedily re-
cover. After listening to her arguments
for some time, he finally consented, and
went with her to the orange blossom groves
of the state of everlasting summer, last
fall. As strange and sad as the statement
may appear, the fact is nevertheless true,
that the climate that restored the invalid
to perfect health caused his lovely and
anxious wife to contract consumption, the
disease he had fed from Kansas to escape
The unfortunate lady began to decline
rapidly until her husband concluded that
he had better return with her to Kansas,
where she had never complained of sick
ness. They reached New Orleans and took
the steamer John Scudder for ST. Louis.
The boat had not gone far on its journey
when Mrs. Ellis began to sink rapidly and
soon died. Mr.. Ellis arrived with his
wife's remains day before yesterday, almost
heart-broken. He had the remains con-
veyed to Smithers & Wagoner's undertak-
ing establishment, where they were en-
balmed, and from which place they were
forwarded last night to Wellington The
bereaved husband, who was completely
crushed by the blow, remarked that he had
little thought when he passed through st.
Louis on his way to Florida with his wife,
who was then the picture of health and
who acted as his nurse, that he would bring
her back corpse while he himself return
ed with his health restored.-Re publican.

What the Surveyor Missed.

Detroit Free Press.
A surveyor who was running township
lines in a new county i'm this state. last
fall, was engaged by farmer TO survey the
line between his farm and that of a neigh
Dor. They had line fence, but had en-
gagged in several disputes as To whether ii
was on the divide The surveyor was max
ing preparations when the owner of the
other farm approached and inquired
What are you going To do now"
Find the exact line" was the reply.
At this the man wheeled and went of on
the gallop, and he was seen no more until
the line had been run. The surveyor and
the first-named farmer had just completed
the work when the other came up to with
i'm about ten feet of them and asked:
well, have you got through"
"Yes; all through"
And is the fence foot on his farm ?"
"No: he has two feet of yours, and the
fence must he moved SO that you can have
it,"
The man sprang upon stump, faced a
thicket about five reds away, and yelled
ont:
"You there-Reuben and James and
Samuel. The survey is made and We are
all right. You kin shoulder them shot
guns and 60 back to the sawmill, and If
You meet the old woman coming with the
pitchfork, You kin tell her TO turn back

In the senate, the bill ratifying the
act Of the Choctaw Nation, granting
the right Of way to the st. Louis & San
Francisco railway company, vas re-
committed to the committee on rail-
roads with the understanding, however,
that when reported back it should not
lose its place on the calendar.
The senate passed the bill for the
retirement of Judge Hunt.
Hoar and Bayard made some stric-
lures in the senate to-day on Hunt, of
the supreme court, requiring the senate
to retire him. Hoar said he would saw
wood the remainder of his life rather
than permit his father to remain on the
bench If liable to perform his duties, or
take advantage of the retiring act.
Hoar's remark is supposed to allude to
the unwillingness of Hunts family to
support him.
Senator Ingalls, will soon answer
Beck's speech against the arrears pen.

and resolutions Of thanks for his cham

New York, Jan. 19.-In the testi-
mony before the coroners in the Spuy-
ten Duyvil disaster case, George T.
Hanford, conductor of car No. 6
Of the Chicago express, testified
that it was his impression that
tie stopping Of the train was
caused by some person connected with
it who applied the air brakes. This
could easily be done, as there was a
cord running through several cars
which composed the train which was
connected with a valve and was placed
there as a precaution against accident.
On being asked why he thought the
train was stopped by some Of the pas
sengers on the car, he surmised thai
such was the case, for said he: ''There
was n party on board the train who
were singing, smashing hats and con
Quoting themselves in a very disagree
able manner They were passing
around bottles of whiskey, and the
foundation of that accident was rum. u
He had not sufficient help on the train
to stop such proceeding. Among the
passengers were any number of ex-coro'
ners, senators, assemblymen and alder
men and he could not deprive them Of
their bottle. This was an every day
occurrence, but more especially so or
Friday.

The Nrhilist Trials.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 19.-The trial Of
Sankowski and Melnikof commenced
yesterday at half-past two O'Clock, with
closed doors, before a council of war.
The accused are each about twenty
years of age and insignificant in appear
ance. Melnikoff is the most intelligent
looking of the two. From Sankowski's
examination it appears that he had no
political motive for the attempt, that
he was in great misery and had contem-
plated suicide, and that he was per-
suaded by Melnikof to commit the at
tempt.
The trial Of ~Sampourski Melakoff,
implicated in the attempt to assassinate
Gen. Ticherevine, ended in a sentence
Of 20 years. penal servitude in the mines
of Siberia. A dramatic incident took
place in the court just before the an
nouncement of the verdict. When
Melakoff had finished his flowing the
atrical defense. his father, who had
watched the course Of the trial, rose
excitedly and cursed him.

Cork, Jan. 19.-At the Cork assizes
| to-day the outlaw leader Connell plead
ed guilty to the various charges against
him. He will be a witness in other
cases in which the members of his band
are defendants. At the time of his ar
rest in the latter part of December. for
having arms In a proclaimed district,
Council was already suspected of being
the leader of the band which had COM
mitted outrages rendering the district
Of MILAN M of the most notorious in
Ireland. His arrestitook place at Mushra
under exciting circumstances. A large
force Of police. acting on private IN
formation, surrounded the house of
Thomas shea, a farmer living in a lone
ly district near the Mushra mountains.
Upon knocking the police were admit
ted, and two of them rushed up stairs
and found Connell in bed but dressed.
He endeavored to divest himself of his
waistcoat, but the police after a fierce
struggle with him obtained possession
of the garment, and found in one Of
the pockets a gold watch stolen from a
man named Cudmore during the recent
moonlight raid. They also found in his
possession a list Of persons who had
committed offenses against the unwrit-
ten law Of the ribbon society, and who
were consequently marked for VEN
geance. The list is signed and coun-
tersigned with fictitious names, and
concluded thus:
Examined and approved of, as work
for night squad. Capt. Moonlight.
Among the intended victims are Jas.
Sullivan and Dennis Coarley, farmers,
who were to be shot, on suspicion of
paying rent, and Sullivan's two daugh-
ters, whose hair was to be cut to the
bone, n for having spoken to a police
man, and the other for dealing with a
prescribed person. Other persons were
mentioned, whose ears were to be cut
for lesser offences.
In consequence of the document that
was found on Council five young men
were arrested in Mill street, named
Kellieer, Conner, Leahey, Farrell and
Hurley. Farrell and Leahey were
identified as belonging to the party i'm

WHO DECIDES IT?
The Important Twelve in Whose
Hands Lies Guiteau's Life.
And More of the Long Plea Which
They Have Listened To.
The Jury.

New York, Jan. ia Washington
dispatch to the Tribune says of the jury
IN the Guiteau case: The foreman
John B. Hamlln, is a middle aged res
~taurant keeper, a grave, intelligent
looking man.
The second juryman, Frederick w,
Brandenberg, is a cigar maker, a
wrinkled, mahogany colored little man,
evidently Of nervous temperament, who
listens to all that is said.
Henry j. Bright, the third juryman,
has been mentioned as a man likely to
divide the Jury. He has had insanity
in his family, and is spoken of as livery
peculiar" He looks, however, like one
of the most intelligent members of the
jury, and inquiry proves that he is re-
garded as a man of excellent Judgment.
He is a retired merchant.
Chas. T. Stewart, the fourth Juror,
is a merchant. He has a habit of list
ening with his eyes shut, which has
given him the appearance, of many
times during the trial, of being asleep
when he has not been. The maps of
jurors have sometime been made the
basis of a demand for a new trial.
Thos. H.. Langley, the fifth juror, is
a retired merchant, with a face which
would lead a census taker to put him
down as an Irishman without question;
yet be is English. He has a habit Of
leaning forward In his seat and now
and then looking around, but always
with a face as impenetrable as a mask.
Michael Sheehan, number six, is the
juror about whom the government, it
has been said in the gossip of the court
room, is somewhat concerned. His
answers when he was under examina-
tioa were thought to be evasive. He is
a Roman Catholic and a democrat, and
in business IS a grocer.
This completes the front row.
Joseph Prather, number seven, is an
intelligent looking commission mer-
chant.
G. F. Hobbs Is the jurYman who lost
his wife. He rests his head on his
hands all day in seeming WEAKNESS
and detection. He is a plasterer; plain
workman.
William Braunery, number nine, is a
grocer; in appearance decidedly above
the average intelligence. He is also
said to have insanity in his family.
r. Wormley is a colored juror, still
wearing a patch over his eye. He is a
good natured looking negro. He is a
laborer and plasterer.
The eleventh juryman, Thos. Helm
lin, is a navy yard machinist, and so is
Geo. w. Gates, the twelfth juryman,
and an intelligent fellow Of about thirty
years. The latter has had insanity in
his family.
