TRAGEDY ON THE0eEtN
An English Woman Throws Herself Over
board From the CITY Of Chicago,
Leaving Her Husband With Five Young
Chiiaren-The Husband sits on Deck Sur
rounded by Has Weeping Children
i'm a Dazett Condition.

LIVERPOOL. August Ga newspaper CORE
spondent, OH boarding the City of Chicago
on her arrival the other evening, and inter
viewing Purser Cavanagh on the incidents of
the rapid and pleasant voyage. was told
of a sad tragedy that occurred on
the ocean. Among the well to
do steerage passengers visiting
home were Mr.. and Mrs. Shore.
Yorkshire people, returning to see theirrela-
tives. They had with them five interesting
children, all under twelve years of age. All
had been more or less seasick on the first two
days, but on the ocean growing smoother
they soon recovered their health and spirits.
On the third day out from Sandy Hook the
mother asked the husband to bring her
cup of tea She seemed weak and nervous,
but amid the group of her little ones quite
happy in attending to their wants and lis
tening to their prattle about the novelty OF
their surroundings.
Suddenly, while the father had left his
family, the passengers near by heard an af-
frightened chorus of childish voices crying:
''AIother. Mother Don'tl' Then the pas
sengers saw the mother, as if she was impelIed
by hysteria, ascend the companion way as
rapidly as the motion of the vessel would per-
NIT. Next those on deck were astonished to
see her rush in frenzied manner
to the bulwarks, step on box
and throw herself headlong over the
side OF the vessel. All happened SO sud
denly that there was no time to intercept
ber The steamer was going at full speed.
Instantly the thrilling cry was heard, "A
woman overheard" This aroused everybody.
simultaneously the bridge bell rang, ''Stop
engines The vessel was stopped soon as
possible. boat was lowered and a crew inn
mediately pulled back into the foaming track.
but uselessly seaman at the side of the
vessel, who saw the whole thing, said She
never rose. sir. and went down with $500 in
a belt at her waist
During the following four DAYS till land
was reached Shore sat on the deck, dazed,
surrounded by his five weeping children, he
mourning most OF all for their mother, who
was doubtless temporarily crazed by her
sufferings from seaSickness and least of all
for the loss of his little savings But the
sympathies of the passengers were
awakened and a goodly collection was
made for him. but this scarcely aroused
him Il ON the dependency into which the
tragedy had sunk him. On arriving at Liver
pool the poor fellow had instantly left the
ship before the correspondent had boarded
her. Instances are rare OF such suicides be-
ing accomplished said a medical man of
great experience at sea. 'but the desire To
throw ones self into the sea after ocean
nausea is a common and a dangerous Incl
dent of seasickness."

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
The Usual Style-A Jealous German Dairy
man Commits a Bloody Deed.

LOUISVILLE, KY, August THE Dioodiest
crime that has blotted the criminal record of
Louisville for months was committed this
morning in little frame house on the
corner of what should be Thirty-third
and Bank streets. Michael Kaelen, aged
forty, killed his wife in cold blood and then
cut his own throat The suicide and muir
derer is German who has been in America
about ten yers. The wife was pretty little
German woman, and attracted much admit
ration from the neighbors. Kaelen was in
business as 2 dairyman and was making
money. He frequently showed jealousy of
his wife's attentions to his workmen and
would become greatly excited at times.
They frequently quarreled, and last night a
quarrel of unusual violence occurred between
them. This morning, about IL o'clock Mr..
Snyder, neighbor, who was at work in the
garden, was called by the little children of
kaelen, who said: 'NCome and help poor
mamma; papa has killed her." He went
Immediately and found the wife lying dead
in POOL of blood, a CHASTITY wound in her
throat, and her husband still breathing, but
with horrible knife thrust in the throat
from the knife which he still clutched in his
hand. His windpipe was completely sew

Preparing for Service.

Special 10 the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, August 9.-John A. Gum,
of Lawrence County, who was lately ap-
pointed to place in the General Land Office,
is here. He was this morning introduced to
Secretary Lamar and the officers of the In
terror Department, and Immediately pro
ceeded to learn his lesson-the duties re-
quired by his new position, Though quite a
young man, Mr.. Gum has the advantage of
a collegiate education, the confidence of the
community in which he resides, and an
aptitude for political management that Sc
cures the friendship of Congressman Cobb
and other Democratic leaders. Mr.. Gum
will be assigned to duty in the wild West,
and in certain work the law contemplates
allowing him a body-guard. 1t is to be hoped
that he will ''look little out, )" take care of
himself and not get killed.
