A Peculiar Divorce Case.

The famous divorce case OF II. II. Peo-
pies was tried to-day in the presence of
an immense crowd, says a Charlotte n.
O. special of the 18th inst. to the Phila-
delphia Press. The plaintiff testified that
en- one occasion his Mary Ann induced
him to climb an apple tree and shake
down some fruit for her. He had heard
Of the trouble Mrs. Adam once gave her
husband about an apple tree, but, failing
to profit by it, and anxious to please Mrs.
Peoples, he removed his shoes and crawl
ed up the tree. While he was up there he
heard an unusual noise, and, looking
down, saw his wife cutting away at the
tree. His first impulse was to come down,
but she told him not to do it; that if he
did she would chop off his legs. He re-
mained in his perch among the limbs un-
til, by and by, the tree came down and
broke a lot of his bones. The jury gave
verdict without leaving their seats in IA
vor of the plaintiff. The case will be car
ried to a higher court. The parties are
all wealthy and highly connected.

NEW YORK, March 16.-In Brooklyn
to-day Miss Celia Renney, II years of age,
was visiting the house of John Cassidy,
on Sixth avenue, Brooklyn. While
Cassidy's family and guests were chatting
in the parlor after dinner, Dennis Reilly,
30 years old, one of the party, drew re-
vOlyer and pointed it at Mary Cassidy,
saying that he would mesmerize her.
THE FATAL JOKE.
When she exhibited symptoms of fear
he laughed, and, turning around, leveled
the weapon at Miss Renney's head and
pulled the trigger.
BULLET IN HER BRAIN.
A loud report followed and, without ut
tering word, Miss Renney fell upon the
floor dead, the bullet having pierced her
brain.
SCREAMS OF DIsMAY.
The screams of Mrs. Cassidy and her
daughter aroused the neIghborhood, and
Reilly, who made no effort to escape, was
handed over to the police.
OVERCOME WITH HORROR.
He seemed utterly overcome with nor
ror at the occurrence, and said that he
thought that the revolver was empty.
ALL EMPTY But ONE.
Upon examination it was found that all
the chambers had been unloaded except
ing the one from which the fatal shot was
fired. The Coroner will make an investi-

The man told an absurd story as though
he conscientiously believed every word of
it. He said that he was a retired farmer
from Shropshire, England, in this country
on visit. He had received direct spirit
ual communications from the Almighty
ever since he was a child, but not until
four years ago was he directed to make
them public and check the growing disre-
gard tor Christian precept. In one of his
visions he was taken to the Toulouse of
Joseph, the carpenter, shown the Sa-
yiour's tools and told to 90 to work. The
world was represented to him as a vast
farm. He was given an insight into the
far future, and told to warn men that if
they persisted in disregarding Gods COM
mands disaster and calamity would be-
fall them. He fOresaw the trouble
with the Beers in South Africa and the
present Egyptian complications. He
wrote letters of warning to Mr.. Gladstone,
but they were not noticed. The London
Daily NelcS refused to publish as an ad-
yertisement his "Seven Great Spiritual
Mysteries" The governments Of Europe
knew him, but were afraid to acknow-
ledge his power. He had two daughters,
one the daughter of the Romish Church

ICEBERGs IN THE ATLANTIC
A Thrilling Story.

A novel and strangely beautiful sight,
says the New York Herald of Saturday.
was witnessed during the past month by
the passengers Of several transatlantic
steamers. Mighty mountains of ice, clear
as crystal and shaped into the most fan
tastIc forms, some bearing the similitude
Of amOrphOus bOulders and others taper
ing into needle-like spires, floated softly
on the bosom of the ocean and drifted with
a motion that was rarely perceDtibIe
Seen at a distance, they appeared mere
white specks on the blue water, but as the
steamers gradually approached them,
their true dimensions were seen and noted
as marvel, not alone by the captains and
their crews, who unanimously agreed that
all Arctic panorama of equal magnitude
had never taken place in such latitude
and longitude, but also by those of their
passengers, whose artistic temperament
Outweighed their dislike of intense cold
and Impelled them to remain on deck and
gaze in wonder at the startling spectacle.
By day and by night the beauty of the
scene remained equally great and equally
impressive. AS daylight died the moon
shOne upon the waters and liz with
ghostly splendor those white masses of ice
that moved on their way with an imper-
turbable' Sphynx-like gravity. If the
weather was calm the steamers sped on
swiftly through the night, taking good
heed to keep clear Of the white bulwark
that loomed so grandly in the distance.
AS the day broke the sun let loose all his
arsenal of rays and touched with his gold
en- wand the scene and its strange deni-
Zens. A DrOfusion of cOlOrs, such as SUM-
light beamIng upon crystal can alone pro-
duce, straightway glOrifed the icebergs,
until it seemed as though they were no
longer white insensate masses Of solidified
water, but had been quickened into life
and crowned with golden tiaras.

Memorial Resolutions Sent to His
Daughter, Its Sole Representative.
When Andrew Johnson died, in 1915,
says the New York Times, the City Coun-
ell of New York passed a series of reso-
luti0ns, which they ordered to be engross-
ed and presented to the family of the eX-
President. The work of engrOs sing was
elabOrately done in India ink, on twelve
sheets of heavy card board, each sheet
being over an eighth Of an inch in thick
ness. No two pages were alike, and yet
all bore Similitude to each other, and
each was Ornamented with symb Olical
figures. The sheets were bound into a
large album with morocco covers, and on
the front was stamped: "FrOm the Com
mon Council of the City of New York to
the Family of eX-President Johnson
Inc album was completed in 1876, and
was placed in the safe in Clerk TwOmev's
Othce, where it remained until few days
ago, the city officials being unable to find
a representative of the family to present
the resolutions to.
Some weeks ago Andrew b. Martin,
Commissioner of Accounts, was in Capt.
TwOmey's office, when the conversation
turned on Andrew Johnson. This brought
to Capt. TwOmey's mind the resolutions,
the preparing of which had cost upward
of $500, and which were still in mis- safe.
lie explained the difficulty of dispOsing
of them to Mr.. Martin, and the latter gem
tleman. who is a prominent Mason,
offered to exert himself IN finding the sur
viYing representatives of Mr.. Johnson's
family. He wrote to John Frizzle, a
Mason, of Nashville, Tenn, and inter-
ested that gentleman in the search. The
result was that short time ago Mr.. Mar
tin learned that Mrs. Martha J Patter-
son, daughter of Andrew johnson, was
living in Nashville. Then morocco
case, lined with blue silk velvet, was pre-
pared for the album, and on it was IN
scribed: Martha J. Patterson. daugh
ter and only living representative of An
drew Johnson, of Tennessee, A. d. 1884,
The resolutions were then forwarded to
Mrs. Patterson by Mr.. Martin, accom-
panied by a complimentary letter.

wRECKAGE AT AsBURY PARK.
Reasons for Relieving that a Schooner
was Sunk by the Steamer Newport.

Reasons for Believing that a Schooner
was Sunk by the Steamer Newport.
The owners of the schooner John X.
Shaw, says the New York San of the 18TH
inst, are trying to learn whether the
steamer Newport actually sank the
schooner with which she collided off
Scotland Light on her last trip to Havana,
as stated by one of the crew. The schoon-
er was bound from Newport News with
coal for New Haven. At the time the col
lision occurred she was due in that local
ity.
When wreckage from a schooner drifted
ashore at Asbury Park, Capt. William II
Bailey and two other experienced sea
men visited it. They reported to Mr..
Hayens, of l07 West street, one of the
principal owners Of the Shaw, that the
Shaw was lost. They brought her bell
from the wreck. They said that the
schooner was cut down by some vessel
that struck her starbOard quarter. Capt
Lucine Osborne and his crew were
probably lost, but it is possible that they
were picked up by an OutWard-bOund
ship. Unless some member of the
schoOner's crew survives it is not likely
that the steamer will be libelled.
At the gang-way of the Newport yester-
day an officer in uniform said that Capt.
Sundberg had sailed in another steamer
and that the wheelsman and lookout who
were on duty the night of the collision
were no longer in the ship. He added
that if there had been a collision the
steamer would have had the paint knocked
off of her bows, but that she did not show
a scratch.

convicted before Judge Pierce to-day of
an aggravated assault and battery on
James Smith, with intent to kill, and with
carrying a loaded revolver. Smith, a
smoOth-faced boy, testified that as he was
going home, about $3.50 o'clock the other
evening, the boy prisoner stumbled against
him at Ninth and Locust streets. He
thought it was an accident, and paid
no attention to the matter. DOvIe

said Smith. ''Pll blow your head of" re-
spOnded Doyle, as he reached into his hip
pocket and drew out revolver. Smith
rushed at him and seized his hands. The
boys struggled round and round, STUN
bled off the pavement, and fell into the
middle Of the street. Doyle was under
most. Smith thought he had chance for
his life and ran. Doyle jumped up in
stantly and fired at him. Smith lodged
two shots and jumped behind a projecting
sign just as third came whizzing past
him. The noise drew a crowd to the
scene Doyle was oyerpOwered, the pis-
tol taken from him, and the excited boy
was carried of to Jail. Smiths story was
cOrroborated by other witnesses.
"You are a dangerous person." said the
Judge. cit is the duty of the court to
protect society against people who shoot
so recklessly."

the boy, ''and if you were to be easy on

wrOnged her while she was a guest

informed her week atterward that the
engagement must be broken off. The
blow nearly bereft the poor girl of her
reason, and soon after. ascertaining the
delicate condition she was in, she, i'll her
desperation, went TO her father, threw
herself at his feet and confessed all. The
father was frantic with rage. He had
long detested the johnson family for their
aristocratic pretensions, and swore dire
vengeance. An Indictment was found
against johnson. He was tried recent
ly, found guilty and sentenced to
the penitentiary for two years. The
prisoners family keenly felt the disgrace,
and ascertained through the States At

to marry johnson his pardon could be

by his relatives with every argument, in
cluding the opportunity to save the honor
of her child, so that she weakened and

THEY WANTED A DIVORCE.
And Thought 1t Could BE Obtained for

And Thought 1t Gould BE Obtained for
the Mere Asking.
Shortly after 1 o'clock yesterday after
noon, says the Washington Post of the
10th instant, a cOlOred man and woman.
claiming to be man and wife, and both ap-
parently quite INTELLIGENT. entered the
office of the Clerk of the Court and asked
to be sent before the Judge, as they
wanted to be divorced. Both admitted
that they could not longer live
together in peace and harmony, and
thought the most sensible thing
for them to do was to travel
separate ways. She accused him
Of cruel treatment, threatening to take
her life, failing to support her, driving a
child by a former husband out of the
house, and trying to outrage young girl
boarding in the house. He asserted that
the entire trouble arose from jealousy,
but he was peaceable man, and as long
as she wanted a divorce he had come
down to help her get it.
They were informed that a divorce
could not be obtained for mere asking.
and it would be best for them to consult
an attorney and act upon his advice. The
man said that as she was so anxious
about it he would employ the lawyer for
her, and they went off together to secure
the barrister.
