Malloy's Chances Favorable to Recov- ery-Better Yesterday-Jealousy and Rage the Cause of she StabbinE.
 Young Daniel Malloy of 92 Canal street, who was stabbed by Bernard Lynch, of AZ Webster street, Wednesday, was mulch bet ter yesterday and when Dr. Russell was ask ed late last evening about the chances of his recovery he said: "He Is much more com fortable and the chances are in favor of his recovery, as he is gaining strength rapidly from the exhaustion caused by the loss of blood. The theory of Captain Hyde, Detec- tives Brewer and Reilly and Coroner Mix is that Lynch stabbed Malloy in fit of jealous rage, as it was understood that Malloy ire quently visited Mrs Lynch and that her hus- band, coming in, found Malloy with his wife. Malloy will say nothing about the case, and all Lynch will say is that Malloy was trying to kick in his door and in this story he is corroborated by his wife.

The ReeordIng of Liens.

In relation to the increase of the town clerks salary voted yesterday at the town meeting, MT. M. Zunder, who advocated the increase at the meeting, said that formerly the clerks received pay for recording liens and this added $500 or $9o0 to their income from the office. Since about two years ago the town clerk has received no pay for record ing liens, hence the motion for an increase.

A BAD FIRE TO PUT OUT.

The EaIe National Bank Building
 Catches Fire Between The Ceiling
 And Breaks out a Second Time,
 Causing The Engines To Be Called
 out Twfce-The Total Loss About
 $1,sO0.
 A few minutes before 10 o'clock last even= ing ain alarm of fire was sounded from box No. 26, corner of State and Chapel streets; and within five minutes afterwards crowd ot nearly 300 people stood in the vicinity of the box looking for the fire The fire orig mated between the ceiling and the floor above ia the basement under the office of the Southern New England Telephone com pany in the Yale bank building, and was soon apparently extinguished with fire e1- tinguisher before the arrival of the engines. The engines we're sent home after Fire Mar shal Kennedy had examined the place where the fire was and had satisfied himself that the fire was out. Not twenty minutes after, when everything had quieted down, the tele- phone operator on the top floor of the build ing felt the wires which run between the walls getting hot, and a moment later MT. Edward Clarke saw flames burst from the ceiling directly over the main doorway leading into the telephone office, on the first floor. A still alarm was sounded, to which No. 2's hook and ladder and hose cart quickly responded and fremen immediately began to pull down the ceiling, and Fire Marshal Kennedy, thinking the fire might be 8 serious one, had another alarm of fire sounded. The engines quickly returned and two streams were put into the building, and after the fremen had pulled down most of the ceiling of the first and second floors, and flooded the building with water, they retired, satisfied at last that the fire was out The building is owned by the Yale National bank and is sep arated from the bank part by brick wall. The damage to the building, by water most ly, will amount to about $1 1000, which is fully insured in the Security Insurance com pany and Cannen's agency. The damage to about $10. On the second floor is the barber shop of John Erbsen and his loss he esti- mates at about $500, the heaviest of any of the occupants of the building He had no insurance. On the second floor s. H. Bowen keeps an to about $50. On the next floor above was a room occupied by the telephone company and a vacant room. On the fourth floor were two sleeping rooms, one occupied by Mr. Blish, a telephone employe, and another young man. Their property was not dam aged. The telephone operating rooms were also not damaged in the least On the sec ond run hook and ladder No. 1 broke her spring, and engine No. 4, the old hulk which has broken down at several fires, again broke down, one of her stanchions giving way. Both the hook and ladder and the engine have been sent to the repair shops and Hook and Ladder No. will take No. Is place and engine No. 5 the place of No. 4. The fire commissioners in their es- timates have askad for an aaDropriation to buy new engine in place of No. 4.

 The second in the series of entertainments at the above church last night was equal in in terest to the first and thoroughly enjoyable l MT Milckes violin playing was the feature of the evening, the suite by Ries. who was his teacher in Germany, being especially in teresting. MT. Parsons played two recent compositions of his own which show his progress as composer, being of high or der of merit and very artistically rendered, as were the numbers by Mrs. Parsons. The lady's playing is characterized by de1icacy of expression which is exceptional among pianists. The choir amused the audience with comical selection, and Miss Nellie A. Jackson, of Springfield, read several selec- tions. She is very pretty young lady with fair ability reader. The last of the series will be given on December 16, at which Mrs. Sherwood Thompson and MT. Ericson Bushnell will assist.

OBITUARY.
Death of The Wife of Col. Wm. 10 stOn-A Former New Haven Lad

Death of The Wife of Col. Wm. John. ston-A Former New Haven Lady. Below is a notice from the Lexington Citi zen and Gazette of Lexington, Va, of the
 death of Mrs. Rosa Duncan Johnston, below ed wife of Col. Wm. P. Johnston, president of Tulane university at New Orleans, La
 and in her youth New Haven girl. She resided here with her mother, Mrs Duncan and attended the Misses Edwards school. She had host of friends, many of whom re- side hereabouts. Colonel and Mrs. John ston have been in the habit of coming to New Haven nearly every summer and spend ing much of the warm season at the hotel at Indian Neck (Montewese.) The deceased was, we believe, kinswoman of Judge and Mrs. Hollister of this city. Her husband, Colonel Johnston, graduated from Yale in 1859, and is son of General Albert Sidney Johnston who was considered one of the ablest generals in the southern confederacy and was killed in Tennessee in the early part of the war, and was greatly lamented as a blow to the South. About year ago Col onel and Mrs. Johnston lost a most promis- ing and only son, notice of which appear ed in the COURIER.
 MRS. ROSA DUNCAN JOHNSTON
 The recent illness and death in our midst of this lovely and gentle lady has revived many tender memories of past intercourse among the friends who knew and loved her during her residence in this comm unity in
 years gone by. Her exquisite charms of man
 her, warmth of feeling, and loveliness of
 character greatly endeared her to all who
 came within the sphere of her presence.
 Married in early youth to husband scarce
 older than herself, she clung to him with en :
 tire devotion through the checkered fortunes
 and privations of war and the struggles and
 sorrows of his later life.
 Mrs. Johnston became a resident of Lex ington in 1868, when her husband, Colonel
 William Preston Johnston, was elected to @ professorship in Washington college. Here for many years she graced his charming home at Clifton. The perfect wife, the ten der mother, the kindly mistress, the charm ing hostess made veritable House Beautiful of that simple mansion. The richly endowed nature of this gracious lady was a perennial and sunny brightness. She was as open as the day. Sound sense and clear judgment marked all her actions. There was in her
 bearing a native and unconscious dignity wholly free from all pretension. Nothing could be more beautiful and touching than the cheerful resignation and Christian forti- tude with which she bore the loss of a dar- ling and only son, frequent separation from devoted husband, and the weariness of
 long and painful illness. Her memory will
 be to that husband a possession forever, and nearer to him the many friends whom his nobility of soul and his kindly heart have already attached so closely.

The Railroad Accident Near Peach Springs

The Railroad Accident Near Peach Springs.
 An accident occurred to the water train, backing from Truxton tanks to Peach Springs, on Monday last, which will probably result in the death of Mrs. Burt Downing, wife of the yard master at Peach Springs, and Mrs. J. P. Brady, of the same place, and MT. Downing and MT. Fenner were in. jured. The party were sitting on the box running between the two tanks on the water car, and COW came upon the track, which was struck by the rear car, throwing three of the cars from the track, one of them carrying the party above named. The car tipped over and all were buried De- heath the wreck, and were unable to extricate themselves. There were no tools on the train by which to remove the debris, and word had to be sent to Blackberry and dispatched from there to Peach Springs for an engine and assistance, as the engineer of the wrecked train, when he saw the acci- dent reversed his engine suddenly, blowing off the heads of the steam chests, which rendered it helpless. It was seven hours from the time of the accident before the injured were brought to Peach Springs. Mrs. Downing has her left thigh broken, left side paralyzed. and is bruised about the chest. She had not articu- lated sound for thirty hours when Dr. Brannen left yesterday morning, and was gradually sinking. Mrs. Brady had her ankle sprained and re- ceived severe bruises, but is able to sit up. MT Owning was injured in the knee and Mir. FenEer in the foot and ankle.
 Since writing the above, Mrs. Downing has passed into eternity, she having expired oh Friday afternoon, and her remains. accompanied by her husband and brother, passed through Flagstaff this morning, on its way east for inteiment.

The Confidence Game.

One Billy Pass has been in Flag. staff since May last, with apparently
 nothing to do, devoting most of his
 time to hanging around saloons and
 playing faro. Very suddenly, on
 Wednesday last, when he saw J. T.
 Trundy going to the justice office of
 !. w. Spafford, he took his departure,
 no one knows where. He had been working great scheme with Mir. Trundy, since about the 18th of May last. He claimed to own a large sa- loon building Tn Silver Cliff, Cobra rado. Tn which he had three billiard tables, one pool table, and numerous articles of furniture. He stated to Trundy that he had killed man at that place, of course in self defense, and that he had to close his business up and skip out, and that he was anx- ious to have Trundy take hold of the business and run 1t for him until such time as he thought it safe for himself to return. On this plea he from time to time got little money from Trun- dy, enough to keep him afoat. Fin ally, he made still bolder break on his victim, showing him letter pur- porting to have been written by a friend of his at Silver Cliff, in which the friend stated that his building was still undisturbed on Water street, that business was good, and that the place running could make great deal Of money. This letter was postmarked Silver Cliff, and dated as if the office had no printed stamp. On the back of the letter was stamped in print, Flagstaff, and the date it was received here. How he succeeded in getting the letter stamp, as it seemed to be genuine, cannot be found out. Trun- dy, to be certain that he told the truth, asked the sheriff of the county in which Silver Cliff is located, if he knew such man, and If such property was located on Water street as de- scribed. He received a reply tha, there was no Water street in the town, no such man ever lived there, and there was no such property. This was enough, complaint was sworn out, warrant issued, but the bird had flown. Pass succeed in getting about SI5o out Of the scheme.

Norris vs. Bailey.

Ben Norris and James Bailey, we learn, unfortunately located on ranch the same day, and of course under such circumstances, there is rivalry and jealousy existing between the parties. Norris had his horse in an enclosure on the coveted land, and Bailey turned the said horse out to the tender mercies of the world and the horse thieves. Bailey says Nor ris drew gun on him, but the former was unarmed. He went and armed himself and returned, and drawing his gun on Norris, the latter laid his down. The arrest of Bailey followed, on complaint of Norris, charging the former with felonious intent to kill. The examination will be held before Judge Spafford on Monday next. Bailey was arrested by Constable Black, and turned loose on hls cog nizanCe.
