him he had nothing bat green corn. The
man said he had been feeding his horse oats
all along and was afraid to give him corn,
and rode on, asking how fer Smiths Ferry
was, meaning Martins Ferry. Ab0utdark
the same evening the horse returned With
out the rider and with the whip under
the saddle. Mr.. Gardener started In Pur.

after the horse, .oyertaking him about q
half mile distant. Afterstabling the horse
the two gentlemen held o consultation and
came to the conclusion that the man had
been killed, robbed and perhaps thrown
into the river. The neighbors were noti.
fed and were greatly startled. Diliyeat
search was made but the man could not
be found, nothing could be learned Of him
and search was abandoned and the mans
whereabouts are still unknown. The horse
is now advertised as strsyed property and
will be gwen to the owner, he proving the
horse his property and paying the dam

new saddle, bride aud whip. She Is about
fourteen years old, Is fifteen hands high
and has white spots as collar marks and
white spots as saddle marks. u is possible
that the man was horse thief. However,
the circumstances appear rather mystere.

THE sACHSE TROUBLE.
The Unexpected Heir Retracts His Sim
guIar story.


gular story.
II will be rem embered by our readers that
when the Forepaugh circus was in this city
this season il brought with it man named
A. SschSe, who was employed as detective
by Mr.. Forepaugh, and who claimed Chi
CagO as his home. He went to Attorney
SIiiel and asked whether Madame Sachse
had left q will, and whether it was duly re-
corded. Mr.. Stifel made an examination
and found that it was not, aud Sachss then
declared his intention of bringing suit to
recover certain pieces of jewelry disposed
Of by the deceased. He told the following
story:
Madame Sachse was originally Myrie Lo-
rane and was born in the French province
of AlsaCe when a young woman she went
to Amsterdam and there married man
named Zeigler. Together they came to
America, as it was Believed, and Zeiyler
died en- route. In the early part of 1879
Madame Zeigler, who became a music
teacher, went to Chicago and was taken
into the family of T. T. Sachse,
widower He became infatu-
ated with her, and in the last of April,
he ran off with her, going first to Pitts
burgh and theu to Cincinnati. In the lat
ter city Sachse suddenly dieG, and Madame
Sachse (she claimed to be his wife, became
possessed Of everything he had. This con-
sisted principally OF jewelry, including a
valuable gold watch and chain, diamond
ring, diamond studs, etc, valued at 81, CO.,
Madame Sachse went to Pittsburgh and
thence again TO Cincinnati, teaching music.
In 1880 she came to Wheeling and remiin-
ed here until her death, which occurred
last spring. During her last illness she
was nursed and attended by her niece,
Miss Rosa HOpsacker, of Caro- Illinois.
and shortly before her death made a will
in her favor. The watch and chain were
TO pay certain accounts and the balance OF
the iewelry her niece was TO receive. This
was carried out and after the death and
burial Miss Hopsacker returned, taking
the diam onds with her. ..'
Young Sachse claimed the jewelry on
two grounds: In the first place he said
Mrs. Iiegler was not widow, having de-
serted her husband, who is still living in
Amsterdam. Secondly, he said she and
his father were never married, and if they
were the wedding was illegal, as she was
already wife. Consequently she could
have no right or title to the jewelry. When
this story was given to the public itcreated
quite q sensation, as the Madame moved in
upper circles, and her scquaintsnces were
greatly shocked at SO foul story. Scarcely
any credited il. Yesterday the following
was T, ceived, and will tend to set matters
straight:

Of employing steam as motor on their

have steam, provided Council grants per-
mission. A statement Of the receipts and
expenditures Of the road was read, and
shows the road to be heavy loser by the
present system Of horse power. In 1881
the expenses Of the road were 81, 999. 90,
and the income $1i, 630.2i, q loss of S.

New Orleans, Brooklyn and Cedar Rapids,

much cheaper than horse power. :.
