Stock Shrinkage.

The way Wall street men suffer at a
time of shrinkage is shown by the report
in the Cisco failure. Among the assets
is a batch of Louisville and Nashville
bonds whose estimated value was 1927
600. while the real value was only $685.
600. Another batch of Boston, Hoosac
tunnel and Western was estimated at
500, 900, the real value being only ST.
600. Here, too, is a lot of Pensacola
and Atlantic shares, which were put in
at $4,000, but will now only bring $3.50.
No wonder men fail when they dabble
in such trash! The Ciscos, however,
have enough to meet all claims, and
their assignee showed great hnesse in
compelling Mrs. E. H. Green to give
her check for money loaned her husband.
The most interesting feature in the
trans action is the amount of the check,
which was S7O2, 900, being the largest
check ever drawn by any woman in the
financial record. How little did the
public imagine that in these hard times
there was a woman who could open the
bank vault to such an extent by the
mere touch of a pen! 1t is not, however,
to be supposed hat this was done will
ingly. Mrs. Green learned, to her sur
prise, that the Ciscos could hold her Sc
curities against her husbands debt, and
she could only get them by paying the
latter. How the loving couple settled
their mutual trouble afterward is not
known, but it is probable they had q
warm time of tn. Y. Cor. Troy Times.

Two Men Burned TO Death,

. BRADFORD, Pa, March GA boarder at
the Dunkirk House, Chestnut street, this
city, came in about half past four O'Clock
this morning the worse for liquor, and
overturned his lamp. The building, which
is three-stories high and built on a balloon
frame, quickly ignited, and in a few mo-
ments blazed up fercely. The fire depart
ment was slow in getting to the
scene, on account of the unwonted
hour, and the flames gained rapid
Roadway, communicating with a store
house, a mail hotel adjoining and two or
three other frame buildings, occupied as
warehouse and by a Chinese laundry.
These were all burned. There were thirty
or forty boarders in the Dunkirk House,
and a number of them were reported
been accounted for but three, and of these
one was believed to have gone to his work
in the field. Search among the ruins re-
vealed two blackened n disfgured
corpses, which were identified as Barry

Hitler, a former resident of Dun
kirk, N. Y, was seriously, though
not fatally, burned about the face and

of a window and left his vest, with a gold
watch, unde the'pillow. Part of the vest
was found in the ruins, and his gold watch
still running. All the guests had narrow
escapes, getting out in their night-clothes
and compelled to leave their ~valuables.

AWFUL SUSPENSE.
A Remarkable Scene in a Pennsyl-
vania Prison. =
A Prisoner Frightened to Death and
Another Palsled During DIR. Goerson's
Execution.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, March Con "exe-
cution" days in the County Prison all the
cell-doors in the scaffold corridor are kept
tightly closed to shut out from the sight of
the inmates of the cells any glimpse Of the
terrible scene going on without. In this cor
ridor, and not very distant from the position
of the scaffold yesterday where Dr.Goerson
was hung were the cells of Taylor, who muir
dered a penitentiary keeper; of Kane, who
slew his brother in his South street saloon,
and Briggs, who cut his wife's throat as
she was reaching up to take a dish from a
cellar shelf. In their neighborhood the
cells were all occupied by men who have
been convicted of all grades of crime. In
one of these compartments there was an
old man named Joseph Barrett, who had
served on the flag ship Hartford under Far
ragut, and who had got into prison under a
long sentence for making a murderous at
dropsy, and was so badly off as to be bed
ridden. Prior to the execution he was an
eager inquirer after the details of the ar
rangements, but these were denied him,
and despite the efforts of his nurses
he rambied on with this topic entirely
filling his mind. He was greatly de-
pressed when his door was closed and the
p%eep-hole closed up. None of the cell
doors were opened until every vestige OF
the tragic affair had been removed, and
then, as the keepers passed along, there
were blanched but eager faces at the wickets
asking in suppressed tones: SIS it all
over?" When Barrett's door was found it
was discovered that the old man had died
of the shock. Taylor, who is condemned
to die on the gallows, when he heard a
week ago that Goerson's pardon had
been refused, was attacked with a ire
NOR that resembled palsy. How he
of two hours occupied in the preparations
for the hanging yesterday morning can be
fancied from what was seen when his door
was opened and he was found in spasms on
his cell floor.

NEW USE FOR
How 1t Was Successfully Utilized in the In
augural Procession.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The telegraph
has been put to many uses since it's discov-
cry, but the first time it ever helped to
move a parade in Washington was on the
great occasion of yesterday. 1t las
been a matter of surprise that such
a large body of men passed along
attributed to the superior military skill
chief aide, Colnel Ordway. 1t appears,
however, that along the route four tele-
graph stations were established with
operators and messengers to ser
and receive orders, report progress
and to give prompt notice Of OBJ
delay and confusion caused by sending
mounted aides, galloping back and forth
with orders, was avoided n a prompt
and comprehensive report of thec condition
of the whole line was in possession of the
Marshal at all times. The most important
part played by the telegraph service in the
inauguration ceremonies was the trans
mission of press dispatches. The Vest
ern Union Company not only trebled its
usual number of private messages from
Washington, but it sent in addition the
enormous amount of 254. 600 words of press.
This figure las only been exceeded on one
other occasion, namely, b day that Gar
field was assassinated. Then the total that
company reached was 10000 words. But
it is believed that the amount of press
matter telegraphed from here on the 4th of
March was greater even than that. In adj
dition to the press sent by the Western
Union, the Baltimore and Ohio handled up
wards of 10000 words, and the Bankers
and Merchants sent over $4,000. The Pos
tai did q large amount of work, say 10000
words, and private leased wires to news
papers carried $4,000, making altogether
over 400, 600 words. This is the greatest
days press-work ever known in the history
of the National Capital, and does not in
clude the Associated Press or United Press

HORSE MEDICINE.
Fatal Result of a Transfers Brew to Cure
His Horse of Lameness.

PITTSBURGH, March 5.-This evening
Frank Kunkle, a teamster, living in Grant
alley, Allegheny City, placed on a stove to
boil a mixture of %turpentine, tar and lin
seed oil, which he had been told would
cure a horse of lameness. In the room
at the time besides Kunkle was his daugh-
ter, Annie, aged seven years; his son,
aged five years; Julia Walters, thirteen
years old, and a young man named Dipp.
The mixture had been on the stove probably
an hour, when it boiled over. Instantly it
ignited, and a second afterward an explo-
sion occurred, which scattered the scalding
liquid and flames in all directions. Young
Dipp, with great presence of mind, grabbed
up the can with the burning mixture and
started for the door, while Kunkle ran to
rescue the children, whose clothes were
a mass of flames. One by one he
picked them up and threw them out
of the window into the yard, and
then jumping after them tore the clothes
from their bodies. Assistance arrived by
this time, and the fire having been extin-
guished, the little sufferers were carried
back to the house. Annie was burned to a
crisp and died in a short Tina in great
agony. Julia Walters was also terribly
burned, the flesh peeling. off her arms and
ing intensely. Slight hope, however, is
entertained of her recovery. The little boy
was badly burned about the face and arms,
but will recove Young Dipp had the
flesh burned off his hands and arms, and
Kunkle was painfully but not seriously in
jured. The damage to the house by fire
was very slight.

PSYCHOPATHY.

The New Disease Which Is Nowadays
Pleaded to Excuse Murder.
The acquittal at st. Petersburg Of
Mile. Semenova. accused of being I'M
plicated in the murder of the child
Sarah Becker, has been the cause of a
scene closely resembling that witnessed
at Paris when Nine. Clovis Hughes was
restored to her admiring friends. The
reason, however, for the %acquittal OF
the Russian lady differs greatly from
that which saved Nine. Hughes. The
evidence all through the trial was dead
against Mile. Semenova, and it would
have Jared badly with her but for the
declaration of an expert, NJ. Balinsky'
n Russian mad-doctor, who, pointing
out to the jury the hysterical bearing
of the culprit, persuaded them that she
was suffering from ''psychopathy,"
and, therefore, morally irresponsible.
For the benefit of those who are as yet
ignorant of the meaning of ~psychopa-
thy-a term which before long will. be
naturaliZed in our courts we give Mr..
Balinsky's explanation of the new NAL
ady. ''The psychopath," he says, lis
a type which has only recently come
under the notice of medical science. 1t
is an individual whose every moral
faculty appears to be of the normal
equilibrium. He thinks logically, he
distinguishes good and evil, and he acts
according to reason. But of all moral
notions he is entirely devoid.
Besides his own person and his own in
t~erests, nothing is sacred to the
p~sychopath," etc, etc. The short and
long of it seems to be that if egotism is
fully developed in a human being he be-
comes morally irresponsible"Na very
convenient doctrine, to which, how
ever, mankind will have to add as a
corollary, that whenever a fully devel-
oped psychopath is discovered he shall
be Immediately hanged.-PaR Mall Ga

Webster's Eyes.

Mr.. Allen, in his article on Daniel
Webster in the Century, mentions
.'great, soft eyes," as being peculiarly
attractive t. children. This reminds me
of an incident which may perhaps show
that those eyes had sometimes a differ
ent effect. Mr.. Webster was once
spending the summer in a town e
Boston, and, as was his custom, attended
church regularly. both morning and
afternoon. On one occasion it fell to
the lot of an u~nfedged youth to try his
wings in that pulpit. He rose, as was
natural, with some trepidation, to begin
the service. This trepidation gradually
increased, till toward the close of the
hymn he faltered perceptibly, and as he
a tdown by the minister of the parish.
he whispered: doctor, 1 don't know
to whom those eyes belong which are
directly facing me, but they are quite
too much for me and I "a not preach"
Mr.. Webster was responsible for an ex-
temporaneous discourse that morning.
