He Gets Into His Cousins Store at
Midnight and Murderously Assaults
His Relative.
Boston, March 18.-Yee Fang, a Chinese
laundryman, about midnight last night went
to the grocery store at 11s Harrison avenue,
where his cousin Lee Quong was bookkeeper
and part owner and knocked at the door.
Lee Quong, who slept in the counting room,
arose and let him in. Lee Fang asked for
some oysters and these were given him. He
then asked for a pound of Lima bean pods.
Lee Queng crouched upon one knee to get
some from box, whereupon Lee Fang drew
a small new Ratchet which he had concealed
about his person and struck Quong twice
upon the top of his head, inflicting deep
wounds. Lee Quong turned and received
another blow above the ear He sprang up
and put up his left hand to defend himself.
1t was badly cut by the murderous weapon.
Lee Quong closed with his murderer
and they struggled together, getting out
near the door. The scales used in
the store stood here and the hanging
weight was pushed into the wall with such
force to penetrate plaster and lath. Mean
while Lee Quopg's cries had reused some
Cinnamon who slept upstairs and who came
rushing down and broke open the door
leading into the store. Lee Quong cried,
&C zee Fang try to murder me-" At this
point officers appeared and Fang was arrest
ed. The wounded man was taken to the
City hospital where he is now in a dying
condition.
zee Fang owed the firm money and ex-
cuses himself as follows: 81 takee me
Ratchet long with me, SO eff Yee Quong
askee me for the money cut him. When I
getee me oysters he Gomez up hind me, takee
me by pigtail and callee me -. 1

zee Fang was held in 1000. His real mo-
tive is believed to have been robbery. He
formerly kept an opium joint and may have
fancied that Quong informed the officers of
his resort

fThe death of Mambrino Patchen at Lex
1ngton last Friday night removes one of the
most famous trotting sires. He might be
called a progenitor of trotting speed-what I
tiers, his second generation trotters, and as
far from him as has been got, all are trotters
and getting better. From the thoroughbr
Australian mare Estella, owned by Mr.. Lor-
lizard, he got Alma Mater, a mare which at
twelve years of age had thrown foals which
sold for fifty thousand dollars. They were
Alcantara, Alcyone. Alameda, Allene and
Alicia. This was called to Mr.. Lorillard's
attention, and he determined to send Estella
to Lexington and have another colt from
Mambrino Patchen. But the mare had hard
ly reached the blue grass region when the IA
nous stallion dropped dead.
''Speaking of this great sire I am remind
ed of a brood mare, one of the most famous
dams of trotters. This is Green Mountain
Maid, of Charles Backman's Stony Ford
farm in Orange county. I never heard her
full history until to-day. She is brown
mare and came from the West. Harsh treat
ment had taught her the habit of pulling on
the bit, yet she was timed mile IN 2;2o
When owned by Elijah Dusenberry, then
living near Middletown, she became famous
as a lot trotter. What's that? Why, the
people would assemble around her paddock,
let loose dog and set the mare going. She
was never known to break from trot unless
to kick at the yelp1ng dog at her heels, or
when thrown off her feet by going into a
hole. She was put through all this as a two
year-old.
''The next year she was bought by D. B.
Irwin, of Middletown, who owned the first
haIf-mile track in Orange county. I was cut
there when she was being driven double one
day Just as she passed the stable dog
rushed out and snapped at her heels. She
kicked, as she had at the dogs in the Dusen-
ot Har1 oa the mole She
was unhitched after much trouble, and Mr..
it was nerve racking experience, and she
could never be got under control She was
taken to Stony Ford in 1866, then four
year-o1d. Her tendency to trot has always
remained, and in the field she has often been
seen to trot faster than her companions could
run. She seems to know her power and to
delight in it, Her movement is simply per-
lection.
"The seven foals Of the mare sold from
Stony Ford realized $40, $50. Had they been
disposed of when their reputation was at its
best the sum would have reached over $780,
000 Among them are Elaine, with a record
of 2:20; Prospero, 2:20; Dame Trot, 2:22 and
Storm 2:2634. The average of thirty-six
heats in seventeen races by these trotters was
2:24 and fraction In 1881 Governor Stan
ford offered ten thousand dollars for the
mare, then nineteen years old, but it was re-
fused. Her sire was Harry Clay, her dam
Shanghai Mary. Of Blocker street? No.
What are you trying to give me, anyway?
Smilea No, I'll smoke"

property up and down the river in the vicin-
ity of the latter place by the overflow caused
by the ice gorge in the river. Trouble has

river began overlooking on Sunday night and
has spread steadily over the country from

party left here in skiffs with provisions and
clothing and found great deal of suffering

dence where they had remained for two days
without food. It was learned that family
of six had persisted near Waverly and that
as many more were missing. All the cattle
of the country bordering OH the river have
been drowned.
