was nobody within sight or hearing.
Dropping his hose, Murray sprang across
the tank and climbed the smooth bars on
the opposite side of the cage. He reached
the top before the bear had time to follow
him, but the imprisoned keeper realized
that it afforded no place of refuge, for the
animal could easily catch him there by
rearing on its launches. He then made
perilous overhead journey along the top
by clinging to the under side of the sloping
bars until he reached the opening
in the center. Murray succeeded in
gaining the aperture and hauling
himself up to safety without
scratch. He was badly scared man,
however, and his face Tas CHASTITY the rest
of the day.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Jan. 31.-A young
girl named Susanna Nesen, aged eighteen
years, died very suddenly last evening I'M
der the most suspicious circumstances.
While employed at West side residence
several months ago, the girl was seduced
by a young man, whose name cannot be
ascertained. When her condition was dis
covered by her parents,who reside on First
avenue, near Railroad street, on the South
side, her father was very angry, and it is
alleged forbade her entering the house
again. The girl became sick seven weeks
ago and was admitted to the county hos
pital, where baby was born to her. She
remained there until few
days ago when she returned to the city and
was given homo by Mrs. Wellington.
Last evening she appeared in good spirits,
but at about IL o'clock, while lying on
sofa in the sitting room of the house, be-
came terribly sick, and Dr.. Stanhope was
Immediately called. She died soon after
his arrival, however, and nothing whatever
could be done to afford relief. The case
was repe red to Acting Coroner Wildish.
The doctor says the symptoms resembled
poisoning very strongly, and also had the
appearance of epilepsy. Her mother dis
putes The poisoning theory,
and says her daughter was
not in the least respondent,
even laying plans the night of her death
for the future. BY others it was thought
she was overcome by her shame and took
her own life. 1t is said the young man
who caused the girls ruin offered to marry
her, but she refused.

SPRINGFIELD, Jan. Cherry Finn, a
ba1liff at the Harrison street police court,
Chicago, arrived here to-day for the pur-
pose of interceding with Gov. Cullom for
the pardon of Guerin, who is serving out a
ten years. sentence in Joliet for his part in
the Galesburg robbery. Guerin's claim to
clsmency is based upon the alleged fact
that he gave away Mollie Matches, one of
his partners in the robbery, and furnished
evidence which led to his conviction. 1t is
understood that purse of $4,000 has been
raised for the purpose of defraying
the expenses, and that very
strong effort will be made
to procure the influence to stir up the
governors merciful inclinations. Joe
Martin, gambler, is said to be a prime
mover IN the affair. One night some three
years ago, when Martin was running a
game at 116 Madison street, luck was dead
aga nst the bank, and it was in imminent
danger of having its tail pulled out, to use
the language of the sporting class. Guerin
dropped in, and after watching the game
few minutes, pulled out roll of bills
and handed them to Joe with the remark
t lat he might need them before the game
was over. AS it was, before Guerin's money
was exhausted luck turned, and the bank won
IL it had previously lost and more too.
When Guerin was arrested for the Gales
burg robbery, Martin did what he could to
assist him, and now that he is in the peni-
Tertiary Martin is trying to get him out.
AS yet no application has been made to
the governor, but it is stated on good
authority that Bailiff Finn is here for that
purpose.
