There was much in Broener attractive to

He was generous, and had an easy manner of

and appreciation by others, liked to have
about him an adInirer like myself, whom
in a sense he could take under his wing

A month afterward was in San Francisco.
The Ann Mary Ann was creeping on the At
lantic somewhere near the equator, with four
or five weary months still between her and
the Land of Promise.
San Francisco was then simply a mercan-
tile camp. Buildings were run up as are
booths at country eair. There was little
idea of perrnanency. Everything was Of the
''rnakeshift" order.

the sound of voices all around me, and at

the many unstudied attitudes peculiar to man

PORTLAND, July 10.
As the State of Maine was steauing past
Point Lepreaux, about 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, on her voyage from Boston To ST.
John, female passenger who had been
walking on the outside deck was seen TO throw
herself into the sea. The cry ran along the
ship that woman had leaped overheard. The
engines were at once stopped, and a boat
launched with all speed Ii could plainly be
seen by those on board that there was little
hope of saving the woman's life, as she was
lying on the water perfectly motionless and
apparently dead. The body was picked up
and taken back to the steamer. When the
body was brought on board it was rec, gnized
by the steward AS that of an old woman who
had given the name of Gardiner, and who was
travelling second class. She was entirely
alone at the time. A few minutes previous
to committing suicide she had been convers-
ing with lady passenger, Miss Sweeney Of
Boston. She had talked quite freely to her,
among other things saying that three years
ago she had come from the south of Ireland
to America She lived for time at service
in New York, Philadelphia. Boston and Port
land, and was now on her way 10 st. John
seeking employment. She further said that
all her children were dead with the exception
of one daughter, who lived in the old couatry
The woman wore heavy sack, plaid shawl
and a straw bonnet with feather on il. She
appeared to be about GO years of age.
Supposed Murderer of Bin Chong.
This morning Marshal Hawkes. received a
telegram from the Boston Chief of Police,
saying that Cinnamon had left that city on
the morning train for Portland and ordering
his arrest on his arrival here. Officers were
accordingly at the depot when the noon train
got in. The Chinaman was on board and was
taken into custody and locked up in the sta
ton He is of medium height and appar-
entity about 80 years of age. He is not able
to talk English, and of course nothing of his
business in Portland could be learned. He
will be held until the Boston officers come
after him, and will then be taken back to
Boston. Nothing is known of the amount of
evidence against him. 1t is supposed that he
is wanted for the murder of Bin Chong.
LATER.-After three hours interview
tonight Inspector Gerraughty was obliged to
discharge the Chinaman All He, who was
arrested this afternoon on suspicion of being
a murderer. He tells a straight story and
everything substantiates it.

Mans Wife aud Baby.

BRISTOL, July 10.
A young widower, who has been boarding
at Pemaquid Beach. Bristol, for the past two
years, disappeared one night last week, tax
ing his landlords wife and youngest child,
and leaving four children asleep, the oldest
ten wears of age. The landlord is an honest
hard-working man, and has always provided
we'll for his family. He follows fishing for a
living, and is a native of Greenport, X. |.
Mrs. L. belongs to respectable family in
Bristol. The eloping Lothario lost his wife
and child about three years ago, and since
that time has been rather reckless. They
left town in a fishing boat, and some think
that they have started for Bar Harbor. Their
disappearance has caused considerable ex-
citement in town, though no legal steps have
been taken to hunt them up.
