TUE RUTLAND CASE.
An Expert Finds Arsenic in Parkcr's
StOmach -NImch IAcitement.

RUTLAND, VT, April 29.-The arrest of
Mrs. II. +. Mason last night ON charge of
poisoning her son-in-law, ID. G. Parker,
has made great sensation. The accused
woman has been long regarded with sus-
picion. She has claimed the power Of sec
Ond sight and predicted two fires in the
building and was asked by her landlord to
90 elsewhere, when she dreamed that a
third fire would come. Parker
was planning to 20 to Boston
to take a place as stenographcr
when he was suddenly taken sick and
died in great agony, Al 1.-THE first autopsy
ON the body the stomach was removed
and sent away for analysis. This lacked
the fornality of "A legal inquest, and the
body was eXhumed and additional parts
taken. Dr. Witthdus has found arsenic
in all these and VIII complete the eIamin-
alton in time to have hearing next
week. There is little evidence that the
woman ever poisoned the others, though
stories have been circulated about the
sudden death of her husband tour years
ago, and Il bOarder six months ago. The
attending physician to-day stated that
there We're no suspicious circumstances
in the death of these two, but the excite
ment is so great that the bodies will prob
ably have to be eXhumed. Mrs. Mason
and daughter, Mrs. Parker, are members
of the Episcopal church here.

NOT CoMPLIMENTARY.-Th is nothing
vet apparent to indicate that Senator Fair
will not be candidate for reelection. We
long ago pointed out the course which he
intended TO follow. He proposed to use
whatever elements came 10 his hand 10
strengthen his forces, but to keep out of
the fight personally until very shortly be-
fore the election, and then make a short
and sharp moneyed fight. He will make
it as humiiiafing and degrading to the State
and to her reputation abroad as he possibly
can. He will not make sign until long
after the primaries and the Conventions
have met, then he will come in and buy
votes enough to win, no matter what kind
of men happen to be on the ticket.-Reno

Bad Manuscript.


Now, here's a manuscript, 10 called,
Though ! could name it better;
A scribbled paper, torn and soiled,
But sent here as a letter.
It seems a truly hOrrid mess,
Each line is blurred and squintsd;
The writer sends it to the press,
And wants it to be printed.
1t looks as if big drops Of ink
From finger tips had splashed it
As if a hen, one can but think,
And not pen, had scratched it.
Some words are broken into bits,
And some in strings are written;
Another host are dead with fits,
The rest ara palsy smitten.
OF punctuation there is none,
IL scorns 10 mark off clauses
The par. and sentence run right en-
A snuff, it says, for pauses.
Then as to lines, they make one sweaI
They seem ont for a ramble;
They're here and there and everywhere
In one cOnfOuDded scramble.

Intelligence from pOther-
lie ought with it to light his pipe,
And save himself the bother.

We are apt to think Of the present tim
As sadly ont Of joint,
To sigh, and then toward ages past

Of model husbands, model wives,
Say we there was no lack
OF manners, moral pride, and worth,
A generation back
The girls were modest, neat and fair,
The boys we're brave and true
They labored on from sun to sun,
With joys and pleasures few
The children went 10 bed at dark,
And seemed TO have the knack
OF being seen and never heard,
A generation back
And thus it is from age 10 age,
And thus twill ever be
The scenes enacted long ago
With partial eyes we see.
Our offspring in the years to come,
VIII tread the beaten track,
And praise the conduct Of their sires
