Peter Sutty, Jr., who has been con-
fined in the county Jail at Aurora,
awaiting trial for the killing of Nicho-
las Gregovich, last Winter, says the
True Fissure, met with an accident on
Wednesday which resulted in his death
on the day following. He was prac-
ticing on horizontal bar or trapeze,
that had been allowed the prisoners in
the Jail for exercise, and in doing so
fell and broke his back, causing his
death.
This from the Candelaria True Fis-
sure sounds like campaign falsehood !:
The pet alligator at Luning got away

The Reno Journal says the Ninth
Annual Fair was inaugurated yester-
day. and despite the inclemency Of the
weather, the opening day was an aus
picious one. The attendance at the
Park was larger than on the first day of
last year. The Pavilion was crowded
with persons arranging their exhibits,
and by this evening the sight will be an
enchanting one. At the track the
Duke Of Monday had a walkover for
race No. /. The second race was a
three-q quarter dash between Clara w.
Premium and Bonan. Clara w was
lame, but she won easily in l:23a. The
pools sold 3 to 10 against her. The
third race was a mile and half dash
between Fred Collier and Red Boy.
The pools were 2 to for Collier. The
first was dead heat in 2:42l. Red
Boy won the second dash and race in
2:45.

ASTRANGE STORY OF DEATH.
After u Young Woman is Thought to be
Dead She Talks About Heavenly sights.
Boston Herald.

Boston Herald.
There is very strange story reported
from east Boston. On Friday the 10Th
inst, there died at the residence Of Amos
X. Lovejoy, No. l57 Webster street, a
young lady named Hattie G. Craig, lack
ing few days only of being "A years Of
age. Her death was preceded by a sick
ness of nearly year, and the disease of
which she died was of a 'consumptive
nature. Many of the circumstances fol-
lowing the death and preceding the
burial of the young lady are of a pecu-
liarly interesting, IL not of distressing
nature. On the morning of the 18th the
long suffering patient seemed to be rap
idly nearing the end, and at II o'clock
she appeared to have breathed her last
The eyes of the young lady weretenderly
closed by her sorrowing grandmother,
and the body was left slone with the
weeping father. He remained about
half an hour in the chamber of death,
and then took his leave with reluctance
just as he had turned his back upon the
beloved form he was startled by the
movement fthe body and an exclama
ton simultaneously of Papa, papa,
please don't leave me-" When he turned
around he saw, with delight and aston
ishment that his daughter was not
corspe, but an actual living and consci-
ous being, endowed with as much intel
lect aud strength as at any time during
the last period of her sickness. OF
course there were now great JOY and
CONSERVATION throughout the household
When she had become somewhat calm
Miss Craig, with smile and countenance
angelic beyond description, said
"Oh. papa, dear do you know where
have been2"
mo, Hattie tell me where you have
been let me know all about it," an
swered the overjoYed father.
"Oh, papa, have seen heaven, and |
am TO have my health restored to me on
certain conditions" she answered in
great glee.
What are these conditions, and are
You willing to submit them2" asked the
the father.
Yes, papa certainly am"
"Bnt what are they, dear?" still
queried the parent.
II cannot reveal them to you now,
papa. But, Oh, lsaw beautiful things in
heaven"
"Tel me, won't you, all about who and
what you saw Come now, that's a
good girl
"Oh, saw them all saw them all
papa, and Pm going to heaven again,
and when / go don't let them put me in.
to the ground until you are sure | am
dead"
During the rest of the day, up to &
o'clock in the evening, the poor girl
was alternatelyin conscious and swoon-
ing condition. At o'clock she seemed to
have died. There was no change in the
body for three days. and several physi-
clans counseled that the body be kept
from the tomb. On the fourth day,
however, there were unmistakable signs
of death, and the interment took place.

a rule that children under 10 years OF
age supply by their labor from one
eighth to onesixth Of the total family
earnings. The wages earned 10y men are
so small that sixty per cent Of our famil.
les rely on the assistance OF wives and

that there is something worth initiating

Compulsory education is the knife for the

of England are good, but do yo1 know
that in the cotton districts where the
balf.time schools have been in existence
since 1888, it was found in 1870 that 30

Mozart's Poverty.

A slovenly, commonplace wife, low
disorderly connections, and reckless
habits reduced him to a system of con-
slant overwork and borrowing. One
child after another was born and died,
his wife was continually i'll, symphonies
had to he sold before they were written,
usurers had to be resorted to, till came
the catastrophe, which the father, its
inviting but original cause, was merci-
fully spared from witnessing. Mozart,
whom the poor anxious chapel master of
Salzburg had hoped to see 'at the head
ofa comfortable, Christian household"
-feyerishly anxious TO get eight pupils
writing masterpiece, the "Iauber-
Aote," for suburban theatre OF planks
owned by harlequin-begins, accord
ing to his own expression, to have the
taste of death on his tongue dies miser-
ably and painfully, leaving only 60 flor
ins to pay his debts, and is hurriedly
buried in the cheapest manner in the
common ditch of the public cemetery
without even a cross to distinguish his
resting place from that of the beggars
around him. Mozart believed that he
was being poisoned, as Pergolesi had
believed himself TO be when he too died
young, in obscurity and want but what
need could any of his enemies have had
to poison him? He could never have
struggled ont of the wreck of his
fortune, of his career, and Of his
health. The story is a miserable one,
and, being that of the composer OF
Don Giovanni" and the "Stuberfloat,"
obtains deep tragic interest for us; yet
it is in reality the story of hundreds of
others Of musicians of small or no gifts
and the only really strange circum-
stance is that this commonplace tale
of failure should be that of a
man of genius like Mozart's. This
anomaly we have partially explained by
showing how his father arranged matters
as il he had possibly been planning an
obscure and unsuccessful career for his
son the other half of the explana-
ton must be sought for in. Mozart's own
character, which, compared with his
genius, was almost rs commonplace as
was his life, and which might, like il,
have been that of a very mediocre artist
