An Infant Tahen BY the Legs and Dashed
About Till Dead.
NEw YORK, March 26.-One of the most
brutal and inhuman acts that was ever per-
petrated was brought to light this morning.
The ashman was going on his usual route,
emptying the ashes from the barrels which
stood in front of the huge brick tenement
houses that abound in East Fifteenth street
near the East river When he stopped in
front of No. 6l2 and picked up the barrel
he saw small child's foot sticking above
the surface. 1t was dragged forth aud
taken TO the Morgue. twas a handsome
female child about four hours old, and its
little face was covered, as was the rest of its
body, with ashes and blood, while its limbs
were frozen stiff.
Coroner MESSENGER said "the iuhuman
SLAYER Of this child has brutally and hend
ishly murdered it. though it has required
more than one effort. The fepd was in
hopes that the child would bleed to death. .
This process, it appears, did not work, and
an attempt was made to strangle it, as can
be seen by the cruel nail marks and scratches
nm its little throat. It.kas also had its lungs
compressed so that it might die from as
pbyxistion; and finally, the most brutal
niece of work of all was when these sources
had failed, the child has been grabbed By
the legs, and its head knocked against some
hard substance, which has crushed in its
forehead, broken the back Of its skull, and
split its lips. 1t is one Of the most horrible
cases that ever came to the Morgue, and
the detectives are very busily engaged in
irving to find traces of the parpetrator o.
the deed.

The Adventures of an Ohio Miss who
Wanted to See the World.
CHICAGO, March 26-In the Desplaines
Street Station is a girl of sixteen, who has
masqueraded as boy for three years. She
will be held until her parents, who live near
Canton, Ohio, on q farm, can be communi-
Gated with. Three years ago she playtully
donned male attire. So pleased was the
girl with the appearance she presented as
dsshing young man that she decided to
adopt it for the time being and visit the
Exposition, then in progress at Cincinnati.
After doing the Exposition she deter
mined 10 continue the comedy and see the
world Her first experience was at the
town of Marion, o., town on the Chicago
& Atlantic Railroad Here she served in
the capacity of a day laborer, where she
mixed with other companions, and to all
appearances enacted the role of horny
handed son of toll This sort Of recretion,
however, ceased to be an amusement IN
time and she retired from the services OF
the contractor and journeyed to Canton.
1T that point she secured employment at
dairy farm in the vicinity, and for a year
did chores about the place, milking the
COWS ard caring for the stock. She also
swung the scythe. and during the harvest is
said to have led all the rest in following in
in the wake OF the mower. Cuing the dull
season she was placed in charge of q milk
wagon, and drove route in Canton.
One of her customers daughters became
ardently smitten with tender passion for
the handsome boy. Perceiying this and de-
string to avoid what must have resulted in
perplexing contretemps the handsome boy
gave over his job and last December made
her advent into Chicago, Here she ob-
tained employment at the shops Of the West
Division Railway Company, and during the
bitter weather of last winter was found to be
q valuable acquisition TO the f)rce. Her du-
ties, though ola subordinate character, such
as leading the horses to water, ETC., were
discharged with strict fidelity, and by her
faithfulness, industry, sobriety and attention
to business, attracted the notice Of Superin-
tendent Lake.
