was . grand affair. "A report says: The
scene In the harbor was one OF the liye(iest
description; nearly every vessel waved the
tri-color and the stars and stripes. When
the vessels that were to escort the French
steamer Isere, which brought over the
Statue to Bedloe's island arrived in the
lower bay the water was swarlning with
craft, and as Tar as the eye could reach
there were vessels without number. Every
sort OF vessel had been pressed into service.
Soon volumes OF smoke were seen belching
forth from the tunnels of the Isere, her pro-
peller began to reyolve, and she was headed
in the direction OF Bedloe's island. The
French man: of-war La Fore heatle the pro-
cesslOn. Soon her gunners opened the sa-
lutte OF honor by firing twenty-one guns in
slxty-one seconds. Hardly had the smoke
cleared away from her deck when the United
States man-of-war Omaha replied with a
broadside.' Then the Alliance and the
Powhatan fired their guns. The guns of
Fort Wadsworth thundered out a salute as
the naval procession passed Such a scene
as was then presented has rarely been wit

and yachts, with flying flags and streamers,
crowded with people. followed the here
The music OF n dozen bands fionted over the
water, while the var ships thunGered and the
forts re-echoed with booming guns. The
guests ON the Alliance shouted themselves
hoarse.
The French officers OF the Isere stood on
the quarter deck, bowing to the salutes
which they heard On every side. All the
way up the harbor, until the head OF the
procession had arrived of Bed}oes island,
the shores of New Jersey and Long Island
resounded with the crash ofguns. ltspemed
like q battle at sea-. When the anchor OF
the Isere was at length lowered and had
obtained a firm grip, there was more

shouting OF people. Bedloe's Island
was crowded with spectators Men
had climbed mp to the top OF the pedestal
and seated themselves on the huge stones.
The Alliance, after IL parting cheer to the
officers OF the 1sere, proceeded on the way
to the Battery, and the party went ashore.

nocence OF the crime with which she is charg
ed, that Of administering poison to the fam

mother, father and another sister in Du-
buque, Iowa; her mother in July oflast year,
her sister Lena in August, and her father
Michael, in March OF this year. She assigns
no motives for her crimes other than she was
compelled to commit them, and is evident
" insane.
The girl, when seen by a reporter, lay in
her cell in a very excited and hysteric con-
dition.
''Did I kill my father, my mother and
Lena?" said she, reiterating the questioner>s
words, while her eyes were fixed on the
walls. II couldn't help it! couldn't help
it! Something came to me and made me do
it,"
Soon she broke into a passion of tears
'I always loved my mother but she was
ailing and kept at ray side and whispered
in my ears all day and in the night
Let her sleep in peace. Let her lie in the
cool earth So bought the poison, and
gave her q little at time till she was gone.
was very sad. I loved her, except when
it came to me. Then when Lena came here
it pointed it's finger at her all the time. So
gave her q little,. too,, till it was all over
when I was taken sick. l didn't always re-
member, but had {, medicine for my head
that brought my senses back. So when
spring came and thought father WASH very

mother. When came to my sister / got
another box OF poison. put it on my feet.
II stood on the pantry shelf. I couldn't
help putting it in the soup. I don't know
why Ibid it. There is nothing here to tell
me why did it. Sometimes there is.'
WAS it to get the money that would
come at your fathers death?"
"No, no; hated that money. spent it
as last as could. ! cannot tell why. Will
they put rope on my neck now and hang
me? Send for q priest that I may confess
my sins. must have this load away, and
don't leave me alone. I am afraid to stay
alone"
Then she flung herself on the cot, weeping
piteously, and the matron stole in bearing
q bottle of choral and a spoon. Presently
a minister came and passed into the girls
cell.
