LOVE AND POISON.

The TiUo Combined Made 1t Unpleasant
for Lady.
A New York dispatch to the Baltimore
american says: ''Father, 1 do not want to
live; have taken strychnine." was the
startling announcement made last evening
by Miss Jennie Conklin to her father, Mr..
Henry Conklin, the proprietor of the Canoe
Place hotel, Suffolk county, Long Island.
Miss Jennie then fell on the floor at her
fathers feet. She was quickly carried to her
room, and two physicians summoned. The
young girl suffered intensely all night, and
several times the doctors almost despaired of
saving her life. This morning she was
slightly better, and hopes are now enter
tanned that she may recover. Parental OPP
position to her lover was the cause of the
attempted suicide. Miss Jennie is pretty
little blonde, eighteen years of age,
and very accomplished. Among the
summer soiourners at the Canoe
Place hotel this season was a young man
who, by his good looks and winning ways,
soon won the affections of Miss Jennie. Her
parents did not think at first that the ac-
quaintance would result in anything more
serious than passing Irritation, but in that
they were mistaken. Finally, however, the
father noticed the couple were very affec-
tionate, and he took his daughter to task
about it, She acknowledged her love for the
| young man, and that he had asked her to
become his wife. Mr.. Conklin had serious
objections to his daughters choice, and tried
| to persuade her to renounce him. This she
refused to do, and then the angry father
ordered the young man to leave the house.
| hQnnpnn6
then Miss Jennie has been very respondent.
She would not elope, perhaps, because her
lover was not gallant enough to propose it;
or, possibly, because she was afraid to TINS
openly rebel against the parental authority
Last evening Miss Jennie went out for a
walk, and on her return took the dose of
strychnine, and few minutes afterward in
formed her father just in time to save the
life of foolish, love-sick maiden.

THE CANNIBALS.
Hotc Capt. Dudley Pet q Penkmife in til
Cabin BdU,s Throat.

Hotc Capt. Dudley Put q Penkmife in the
Cabin Bau's Throat.
Capt. Dudley, of the Mignonette, has
freely discussed the terrible adventures which
befell him at sea. After describing the
wreck and the manner in which the crew
put of in boat, he says: ';The sea was
raging round us, and we managed to make
a sea anchor with the pinnacle and some
boards The boat was leaking, but cut off
the bottom of my trousers and drawers and
stopped up the hole. About II o'clock a
shark came alongside, but we beat him off
with the oars, and it seems now miracle
how the dingy kept afoat in such q sea. On
the fourth day we succeeded in catching a
fair-sized turtle, which seemed to swim
to the boat and almost turn himself
up for US. We drank his blood out
Of the chronometer box, and afterwards
cut up the whole of the flesh into strips
and hung it round the boat SO overjoyed
were we at this find that we ate our second
tin of turnip. Day after day passed, and on
the eleventh day We had finished the turtle,
and had nothing left except the two fms, but
we ate every portion, even the bones.
''The fat Of the turtle proved very nutri-
tious, and we got water few times when
our oilskins, though sometimes when we had
little drop sea broke into it and spoiled it
so that we had to throw it away. We went
on from the fifteenth to the twentieth day
without any food at all or drink, and by that
time we had begun to look each other in the
face very black. The boy, who had drank
some sea water at night, had said, ''We
shall all die" and I remarked, s'We shall
hav IN
by all, and they said, We had better die TO-
gether, to which replied, so let it be, but
it is hard for four to die, when perhaps one
might save the rest A day or two before
suggested we should try and make some
kind of sail, which we did with our shirts
rugged on an oar for mast, and a strand OF
the painter for shrouds and STAYS.
''Things now looked as bad as they could
| On either the nineteenth OF twentieth day
the boy was lying in the bottom of the boat
where he had been for two days, gasping fol-
| breath and nearly dead. At about 3 o'clocB
| in the morning said to the mate: what is
| to be done? / believe the boy is dying. You
have wife and five children and have d
wife and three children / said that hum an
| flesh had been eaten before. Stephens re.
piled: See what daylight brings forth.
Brooks took his watch at o'clock, and we
made motions to each other. Brooks sale
he could not do it. told Brooks to 60 for
ward, which he did. l then took hold of the
shrouds and had last look round to see il
anything was in sight, but there was no
thing. ! offered up prayer most fervently
that God above might forgive US for such ar
act, and then 1 knelt down by the boy ant
said; Now, Dick, my boy, your time has
come He murmured: what, me, sir2'
put the penknife in his throat, and he wa.
dead instantly"

Thursday night q dissolute young man
named Wolff called at the house where Bur-
gett works in search of q nymph du pave who
is a peculiar friend of his. Learning that
the girl in question had removed her place of
abode, and was "boarding'' at brothel In
another section of the city, Wolff requested
that Burgett drive him to the new castle,
promising to make 1t agreeable and profit
able. Burgett agreed, and stepped into a
carriage in front of the house which Wolff
had and started. The officers saw them and
started in pursuit. Burgett seeing some

Il Cathedral City.

To the casual visitor Milan Is simply q
cathedral, with an ordinary humdrum manu-
featuring town surrounding it. l say sur
rounding it, because the cathedral stands in
the center Of the town, all the principal
streets radiate from it, all the trainway and
omnibus lines start from it. and nearly all
places of amusement or diversion are in the
neighborhood oft Milan was doubtless a con-
siderable city before the Romans took it and
dubbed 1t Mediolanum. In the middle ages,
when it contained population of 300, 900,
it was destroyed By Frederick Barbarossa.
Here it was that afterwards the Visconti and
the Sforzas reigned, heie the Spaniards held
their court, here Austria lorded it over Italy
until 1S4S. Everybody must be familiar
| with its wondrous cathedral and its one hun
| bred Gothic turrets and two thousand marble
statues; everybody must know that next to
! 81. Peters and the Cathedral of Seville this
is the largest church in Europe. But what
Of that's Mount the narrow stone staircase
| in the wall and gain the top of the dome,
and what do you see! That the one hun
dred turrets are mass Of gingerbread elab-
orstions, that the two thousand statues are a
| wearisome parade Of stonecutters' work, des-
picable from the artistic point Of view and
worthless from the historical You are
amazed by the incredible labor, the vast ex-
pense, the enormous loss Of time involved
in this structure, whose only use could have
been to amaze the curious and awe the ig-
norant When you look from the dome
over the luxuriant plains that surround
Milan in every direction you can scarcely
resist grooming when you reflect how many
millions Of these acres must have contributed
year after year and century after century, to
erect this vastpile of curiously carved granite
how many myriads Of peasants must have
tOiled and expired in order that the two
thousand statues should be born.-Cor. San
