UTICA, n. Y, Oct. S.-Mns. Druse,
who murdered her husband with the aid
Of her son, daughter and nephew in War
rem, Herkimer county, last December,
and cut up and burned the remains, was
to-day sentenced by Judge Williams to be
executed on Wednesday, November 25.
No wom has been executed in central
New York for over forty years. The
court house wa crowed by people of both
sexes and all ages. At Q o'clock Mn.
Druse was escorted into the court room by
Officer Wilson. She looked haggard and
worn. On the opening of court Counsel
Luce made a motion for a new trial, which
was denied by Judge Williams. The
prisoner was then told to stand up. She
arose and Judge Williams pronounced
sentence, Mrs. Druse never finched nor
showed any emotion until she was pass
ing out of the court room, when she burst
into tears. Counselor Luce will secure n
stay Of proceedings and appeal the case
on his motion for a new trial.

WAsmNGToN, Oct. s.-The Star says:
Sergeant McGouran, of the signal service,
who got into trouble by refusing to receive
a colored man as his assistant in the Office
at Pensacola, Fla, is not TO be court mar
tailed for d~isobediance of orders, as was
first intended He brought infu ence TO
bear and succeeded in having his punish
ment limited to his reduction to the rank
of private. The colored observer, who
has been in charge Of the Pensacola Office
ever since he was assigned to duty there,
will shortly be removed, as his presence,
in an official capacity is distasteful to the
citizens of Pensacola and it is thought
unnecessary to insist upon his remaining
there. He would not have received that
assignment in the first place, it is now
stated, had the fact Of his being colorcd
occurred to the officer making the selec-
ton.

Scandal Case.

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Oct. s.-An affidavit
was filed last evening against Alexander
Hamilton Grouse, an old and respected
citizen residing some seven miles from
this city. The complaint charges the
complainant with living in open and noto-
rious adultery with his housekeeper, Mrs.
Harriet Mullatee, a buxom damsel of 10
summers. Mr.. Grouse is a well to do
farmer, 60 years of age, a bachelor, whose
broad acres are estimated to be worth
$4,000. He denies the soft impeach-
ment, and claims it to be a Matchmaking
scheme, to which he has been Il victim
several times before. He is a prominent
greenbacker, and a man respected by his
neighbors.

Big Fire in London.

LONDON, Oct. s.-A fire broke out
at 5 O'Clock this morning ip the Charter
House buildings, a row of thirteen eight
story warehouses on Aldersgate street.
The fire spread with such rapidity that in
a few hours the whole of the buildings,
including their contents we're almost to-
tally destroyed. The origin of the fire
is unknown. The row was mostly occu-
pied by fancy goods dealers, f%urriers, toy
stores and printing offices. One bank was
also in the row Of buildings. This institu-
ton was the only one that was not burned
completely out. 1t was badly damaged,
but not destroyed. The firemen had the
greatest difficulty in getting streams from
the engines to play upon the upper stories
of the houses. Many narrow escapes are
recorded, owing to the desperate efforts
of the fremen to get at the flames. The
damage is estimated at $4,000, 600.

A smothered Sensation.

OMAHA, Oct. S.-A quiet little sensa-
ton has developed in North Omaha, the
particulars of which cannot yet be di-
vulged. The parties thereto ae a gentle
man in the drug business on Sixteenth
street, a very indiscreet young wife, and
her husband, a prominent business man
living on Burt street. Sunday night the
husband came in and discovered her with
her head reposing gently upon the manly
shoulder of the ~pill.pounder. The en-
ragged gentleman drew his revolver and
fired, narrowly missing the pharmacist.
Further developments followed relative to
the relations of the wife and the druggist,
and it is said that a livorce is now con-
templated by the injured husband.

NEW York, Oct. Son Wednesday a
sick negro arrived at Albany from Mon
treal. The physician said he was suffer
ing from preliminary symptoms of small
pox. A purse was made up and he was
put IN board a train for New York this
morning. After the train pulled out, he
announced the nature of his ailment and
inside of a minute he had the car all to
himself. The car was detached from the
train and sidetracked, but under orders
was hitehed to a later train and with its
solitary passenger was hauled to this city,
where the health officers declared that he
was not suffering from the disease. He
was, however, isolated. The arrival of his
car at the Grand Central depot caused a
sensation.

of police, was to-day handed a letter from
a Mr.. Hutchinson, who is in the land
business in Kansas City, stating that the
writer has traded land for s., 900 worth of

The are signed, Lindley Murray, presi-
dent, and Il. T. Ferris, secretary. The
writer would like to know about their
value. Maj. Dye has written a letter in
reply, stating that no such bonds have
ever been issued by the district and that
they are fraudulent. He has also notified
the Kansas City police, asking that they
make an investigation.

Cod and mackerel have disappeared, and

Religious services over the remains were
conducted at Westminster abbey. Hun
dreds of poor people stood outside the
abbey in a drenching rain during the entire
services, being unable to get into the
sacred edIfce, so dense was the crowd
which had gathered to pay their last mark
of respect to the philanthropist. A large
number Of shoeblacks, with Grape bands
on their arms, and many other boys, who
have been benefited by the charitable
acts Of the departed earl, stood in line
with the elite in the abbey. The services
were very impressive.

work of projection, organization, survey

ing roadway and superstructure, all occupy
months, sometimes years before a fraction
of track laying appears. So while 1885

viyal of confidence and by extended move
ments toward railway building, the year
will end with less track added than in pre-
