MurderOus Assault Oh u Judge.
WOUNDS INFLICTED BY A MIDNIGHT AsSAIL-


A telegram from New Orleans, La, July 26th,
says Judge Alfred Shaw, prominent lawyer
and politician and one of the highest Masons
in the United States, was the victim of a muir
derous assault last night. At o'clock his
houSekeeper was aroused by cries for help.
Upon entering the room the judge found
bathed in blood, with two UGLY wounds on the
forehead. bloody iron hammer, the weapon
used by the aSsailant, was lying on the bed.
There are various conjectures advanced for the
attempt at murder. 1t is evident that robbery
was not the object, as his watch and pocketbook
and other property in the room, that would
have been valuable booty TO burglars. remained
untouched. When Judge Shaw called for
sistance several persons residing in the neigh
borhood ran to the windows to see what was
the matter, and say they saw figure attired in
a white Mother Hubbard dress, with features
hidden by sunbounet, and i'll bare feet, jump
over the yard fence into the street and disap-
pear around the corner. The injured man now
lies in delirious state. The attending physi-
clan pronounces his condition dangerous. The
frontal and left orbital bone is fractured. 1t is
not believed that the brain is injured.

TWO OF THE WATCHERS KILLED AND HALF a
DOZEN OTHERS MADE INsENsIBLE.
A telegram from Ottawa, July 26, says: Dur.
ing q terrific thunder storm which passed over
this district last night an appalling tragedy
was enacted in a cottage beloning to Joseph
Goderrau about miles from here. Goderrau's
aunt had died the previous day, and last night
several friends assembled 10 console the be-
reaved relatives. Lamentations gave way TO
hilarity, which seems TO have driven away all
thoughts OF the storm which was raging out
side. While the mirth was at its height n bolt
of lightning descended the chimney, and, strik-
ing the coffin, which WAS near the fireplace,
broke IT. open. Two young men, Eugene Ga
reau and Francis " Bauvin, were Instantly
killed. The electric fluid then made . circuit
OF the chamber, causing the halt dozen other
occupants OF the room 10 faint with the shock.
Ii was many hours before any OF them recov-
cred, and consequently il was not until late this
afternoon that the particulars OF the tragedy
hacama known.

INFORMATION AS TO HYDROPHoBIA-THE IN
TERSTATE COMMERCE BILL.
The House commerce committee held its last
session to-day. They adopted a resolution pro-
viding for the sending of circulars to all the
physicians in this country asking for all the
information they possess concerning hydro
phobia.
Mr.. Reagan then stated to the committee
that he thought the interstate commerce bill
too important a measure to be passed in
hurry without proper discussion, and as there
would be no time to give it such consideration
this session he would ask the consent of the
committee to make a statement to the House,
withdrawing it from consideration until next
winter. The committee approved OF this
course, and Mr.. Reagan will Withdraw the bill.

Why New Buildings FIJI Up for a Month

wants to show that it Is paying property.
If he can III up with tenants it will be
simple thing for the purchaser to see exactly
what prolt he Is to get on the Investment
He goes to a house agent and says, 'rlII up
these houses I don't care how you do 1t;
but fiji them. You may let the tenants have
the first months rent free. only get lease
signed with each
~Of course, these leases without security
amount to nothing, As the tenant is pFac-

purchaser comes along, the leases make a
good show There is the first floor with a
tenant IN paying 50 much rent, and with a
lease. There IS the second floor ditto, and

buys for a liberal cash payment and q lib
