Touching and Romantic-A Pathetic
 Tale of Love, Death and Insanity.
 LOWELL, Jan. 6.-Arthur Legrand Staf- ford, who claimed to be a natural son of distinguished English Earl, landed in New York from an Inman steamer during the lat ter part of November last. At the St. Nlch- olas Hotel he met a sporting southerner named Schwartz, and they decided to go to Lake Pamadumcook, in Maine, hunting and fishing. On the way they stopped at Ban gor, Me-, where Stafford made the acquaint- ance of Miss Grace, of New York. They became sincerely attached to each other, and when Stafford left for the woods they had plighted trosh. On the afternoon of Decen- Der 31 Stafford left the camp with his rife for stroll. Shortly after severe snow storm set in, and Stafford did not return. Schwartz and the guide went to find him, but were then unsuccessful. Early in the morn ing of New Years day, about three miles from camp, they found Stafford in the firm embrace of she bear, both frozen stiff. A knife was sticking in the left fore shoulder of the bear. A short distance away half grown cHb with knife wound in it's heart, was discovered. The guide said Stafford had attacked the cub first, and was then set upon by the she bear. Schwartz went to Bangor and told his fate to Miss Grace. The poor girl lost her reason, and will be sent to an insane asylum tomorrow.

Terrible Cruelty to Animals.

INDEPENDENCE, Jan. 6.-An extra freight train arrived on the Missouri Pacific railroad yesterday from the east containing eleven cars of mules. An examination showed that from eighty to one hundred had died of cold and starvation. The stock was from San Antonio, Texas, and bound for Kansas City. They had not been anloaded or fed since their departure three days ago. The mules remaining alive were so driven by hunger that they gnawed the sides of the cars and in many instances ate the flesh of the bodies of their dead companions. The citizens here were naturally indignant over the affair and notified the chief of the Kansas City police of the facts asking him to arrest the n eR in charge for cruelty to animals.
