A Suicide who was Building a Chapel.

READING, Oct. s2.-James IT. Madeira,
aged 50, bachelor; and worth about
S25, 900 cash, shot himself dead at Fleet
wood on Sunday afternoon because he
was troubled from the fact that q
chapel he was building would cost
more than the money subscribed. Madeira
personally superintended the work and wore
his hands through handling brick. The
last thing he wrote was a note giving
$500 additional in money to pay the
debt on the chapel. He gave a large
amount and Lad collected about 81 900.
The total sum paid was nearly 5000, but
this was not enough to pay all. He also
wrote note saying: ~ will enter a better
world than this. I have much trouble
here" All his work on the chapel he vol
unteered to do for nothing.

The uncertainty Of the cleo

the exception of some few pairs

be able tc supply your want

OF Cyrus Phillips Ladies'
Shoes there is but little to be
said outside of the fact that
they are the best-fitting, best
made and neatest line of shoes
to be found anywhere for the
price. They are principally
button shoes, and ladies desir-
ing this style OF footwear can
do no better than giving this
make a trial. The prices range
from $3.50 to $500, made in
all styles and shapes.
GEO. D. CLELAND.
At this time of the year men
generally make provision to
buy their heavy Boots, but as
the season has been backward
they have been holding off.
There is where they make a
serious mistake, as by buying
now, when the stock is un-
broken and while there is no
demand for heavy work, they
are able to make better bar
gains. Those in need of water
proof or heavy calt-skin Boots
will find just what they want

John and Bridget DOugherty Fined for II
Treating Their Children and Sent

John and Bridget DOugherty Fined for IlI-
Treating Their Children and Sent to
jail.
At this mornings session OF the Munich
pal Court John and Bridget Dougherty and
four small children, thinly clad, were placed
In the dock. The parents for trial on the
charge Of drunkenness and for ill-treating
their children. There are 10 children, the
two eldest are able to work, but won't; the
next Oldest four do the begging
for the family, and were out when the
officers made the arrest this morning.
The testimony of several witnesses was
taken and the statements of the father and
mother were listened to by the court, who
then fined John and Bridget $40 each
and committed the children to the care
of Austin Harrington, Esq, who will have
them placed In charitable home. This is
the second or third time these same children
have been taken from the parents who
have always succeeded In some way or
other in getting them away. The
case is very distressing one and has fire.
quently enlisted the sympathy and aid Of
charitably disposed citizens. But all efforts
TO reform the inebriate parents have proved
fruitless and they will now be committed to
jail where they will be decidedly better of
than when bumming about this city.

WHAT MR.. ROSS SAYS.

A reporter of the Philadelphia Inquirer.
last night, was informed that Mr.. Christian
X. Ross, father of the boy, had written a
letter from st. Louis, Saturday, in which he
stated that the supposed clue that had taken
him there had turned out like all the rest,
although he had at first been strongly i'm.
pressed with the belief that there was some
thing in 1t. He further stated that he
thought 1t was only another scheme to ex-
tort money from him. Mr. Ross did not say.
or even intimate, when he would return
but would follow mp the matter to the end
as he had done in every other case, even
though he had no hope of success.

THE ROSS CASE AGAIN.
ANOTHER GLUE TO THE MISS
ING CHARLIE.
A HOPEFUL FATHERS SEARCH
what Burglar MOsher's Brother Said Be-
Tore He was Lynched-Mr. Ross in st.
Louis Looking Up the Clue.

| PITTsBURG, Oct. 22.-The news of the
possible new clew to the whereabouts of
Charley Ross telegraphed from st. I,ouis
Chls morning seems to be very stronely cor
roborated by the statement of j. C. Baird.
prosecuting alto ney of Cheyenne, Wyo-
ming territory, who i5 now visiting in this
city. he says that some five weeks ago a
brother ofthe Brooklyn burglar Mosher was
lynched In the suburbs of Cheyenne for the
murder of John II. Wentzell and
a murderous attack upon Jim knight. a
companion OF Wentzell. These men were
asleep In freight wagon, and Mosher at
tackled them with an axe. Wentzeli was not
seriously hurt by the first blow, and asked
Mosher If he wanted his money. After re-
celVlng an amrmatiVe reply Mosher was
directed to the place in the wagon where II
was secreted, but he ordered Wentzell to
| get 1t. While doing SO Wentzen was
shot four times, and died in very short
time. Knight had been rendered uncon-
s:ious by the first blow, but he was not
further molested. Mosher failed to get the
money, but fed on the appearance of a
aquad OF soldiers from Fort Collins, He
was pursued and finally oVertaken, and
Knight, who returned to Consciousness. was
able to give some information in regard to
the attack.
Mosher was taken back TO Chevenne.
where he had lived for some time. and To
conhdants he admitted that he had intended
to Kill both Knight and Wentzell. He also
said that he had been compelled to 90 West
because OF participation In a crime which
had become known throughout the world.
He said he had been the custodian of a
person Tor whom ransom had been de-
'uanded for over year, and that the de-
tectives, afttr the killing of Mosher In
Brooklyn, were SO hot on the trial that
he was forced to fly. The crime with
which he was charged was so cold-blooded
that the citizens of Cheyenne and vicinity
formed an organization on the Sunday fol-
lowing the murder of Wentzell, and thew
took Mesher from the custody of the officers
aud escorted him out to the woods. 1t was
then that he offered to give the information,
but the lynchers did not have time to
wait, and the execution was completed in a
few minutes.
1t is thought Mosher brought Charlie Ross
West with him, and that the child fell into
the hands of the party whose confession at
st. Louis has just resulted in the visit of the
iather to that place and the development
already made known. The man through
whom Mr.. Ross is working has said that
Charlie was In Wood River settlement, in
Illinois, between Alton and EdwardsyiIle.
and had been there a long time with a
family of negroes.

An Errina Angelene.


The following story Of misplaced at
lection, much mixed misegenation in
which Scotch, or Scotch-Irish, French
and almond eyed Chinese figure, comes
from New York. Who knows this
coquetting Caroline Juliet that makes
all this smoke like pyroligneous acid
An order was granted yesterday in the
mit Of Caroline Juliet Lieguiois VS., John
McCracken, which was begun some
time ago in the United States Circuit
Court. The plaintiff was Il citizen OF
France and the defendant resident, oil
this city. The complaint alleges that
the plaintiff in the years OF lSI! and
1878 resided In the State Of California,
and that she was q teacher OF French.
Al Los Angeles, Cal, the defendant, in
January. 1877, succeeded in gaining her
affections and the result was the loss OF
her good name, sickness and pecuniary
want. In 1878, the plaintiff says that
she was living In Hartford, Conn, and
that on September the 30th, the de.
fendant went to her and she demanded
of him $4,000, but finally agreed to ac-
cept an allowance. Its payment was
made until September, 1879, aud then
It ceased; the action was therefore be-
gun by her in the above court to recover
Sl3,9il. The Court granted commits
sion to take evidence in France mainly
as to the alleged marriage OF plaintiff
with Chinese professor OF languages
named Tin Tuck Lind. The deposition
Of Tin Tuck Lind shows that he was
married to plaintiff, but he had wiio
In China at the time, and further de,
scribes the relationship which existed
between plaintiff and himself. The
PLAINTIFF counsel applied for the sup
preston of the testimony taken before tne
commissioner and Judge Wallace grant
ed the application.
