an obscure Case OF Poisoning.

A curious case OF poisoning has come TO
light in the family of Thomos Nesom, 2f5
South New jersey street. Last Friday his
two-y esr-old baby was taken sick by vomit
ing and some other signs resembling an irE
tsnt poison. Later, three other children
complained in a similar manner, aud even
the father and mother were not exempt
The family physician, DR.. carp, believed
that the food was the medium
by which some poison had been
taken into the system, aud upon this theory
he ordered all articles of food that were IL
the house at the time to be abandoned and
fresh supplies procured. This being done ell
members of the family began to improve
and are now approaching recovery. A
though the cause is yet somewhat obscure
yet the following is possible aud perhaps
probable solution: Some Irish potatoe-
were found that bore marks of rats teeth
and it is supposed that poisoned meat has
been carried to the potato. barrel by these
animals. The potatoes are undergoing an
examination at present by the physician
and it is rumored that Paris green was
found, but this is not positively known TO b
a fact

terday evening, resulted in a victory
for the second nine by a score of 80
to ~. Neither nine played with its
full quota Of old members, the first
nine, especially, claiming to have been

the absence of Messrs. Morris, Riley

with the first nine.
The first FIVE innings the second
nine ran their score almost three to

they played carelessly to the finish.
AT the close, E. c. Coffin, captain
of the second nine, challenged the
first nine to game, next Monday,
for any amount, from 81 to $500 a

their mettle, and there is q prospect

MRS. sELWYN,S DEATH.

|
Antscedents-Her Husband and Sister
Prostrated- the Remains will be
Disposed or.
Shortly after 6 o'clock last evening
the community was startled by the
report that Mrs. G. J.. Selwyn, wife of
the bookkeeper at Mccormick & Co.'S
bank, in this city, who gave birth to
twins day before yesterday, had just
died.
This announcement proved all the
more startling from the fact that Mrs.
Selwyn was supposed to be getting
along we'll indeed. DR.: Higgins, who
attended her during her sickness, left
her about 5 o'clock. She was
then laughing I'D chatting, with
cheeks bright, eyes clear, and general
tone evidently good. He returned
exactly one hour and ten minutes
later, to find her dead. She died of
embolism, or blood.clot of the heart.
Her husband, who had been unre.
hitting in his attentions, was prostrat-
ed by her death, and lay as if dead
until about 10 o'clock this morning,
when the attendants succeeded in get.
ting him to take some medicine. The
physician fears that he may suffer
from an attack of brain fever.
OF the two babes, one died as soon
as born; the other is lively as
cricket, and promises to live.
Mrs. Selwyn was u native OF Mon
treal, Canada, and a descendant of
the Macintosh family which figured
so prominently in the operations of
the famed Hudson's Bay Company,
which covered all of the present Do
minion OF Canada, most Of Montana,
Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho, Washing
ton Territory and Oregon, and en-
ployed thousands Of soldiers, trappers,
voyagers, Indians, etc., at all seasons
Of the year, besides maintaining vast
warehouses and forts at various points,
and banking establishments in several
cities. One of these-the Bank of
Montreal, which has paid-up capital
of $12,0oo,Ooo in gold-is still the
strongest banking institution on the
American continent.
She came to Salt Lake City about
three years ago, on visit to Richard
Macintosh, her uncle, who is inter
ested in ore samplers at Sandy and
Park City, Utah, and soon after mar.
ried Mr.. Selwyn. While roller skating
in Salt Lake, Mrs. Selwyn sustained
severe injury to her spinal column,
which brought her to deaths door,
and her husband thereupon moved to
HALEY, in the hope that the climate
here would benefit his wife's health.
About nine months ago Mrs. Selwyn
began to have misgivings or sort of
premonition that she would not sur
vive the ordeal of -birth-a pre-
monition that has, unfortunately,
proved too we'll founded. She was
about % years old.
Her sister, Miss Blanche Mackin-
tosh, returned from Europe about
year ago and also came to HALEY for
the benefit of her health after visiting
with her uncle in Utah for a few
months. She was with her sister in
her last moments, and has also been
Frustrated since.
Richard Macintosh having been
Informed by telegraph of the death of
his neice, sent instructions to have her
remains embalmed and placed in a
metallic casket for transportation to
Salt Lake. He will arrive here to-
morrow with his wife, and endeavor
to leave on the afternoon train, as
otherwise the body would have to re-
main here until Monday.
