Children Killed by a Rattle.nake.

A sad and horrible account OF how three
little children met death comes from Cow
ngton County, near Andalusia. in Alabama.
Three children, ranging from to years
old, went out in the afternoon to play near
the house. A large pine tree had been
blown down by the wind, and they were
playing around in the hole made by the
roots of the tree being torn out. The even
ing passed, and at night the children were
missed. The parents instituted search.
and soon found them lying near the roots
.! the fallen tree, The two younger ones
we're dead, and the oldest was in dying
condition. Upon investigation it was
found that the children had been bitten by
u rattlesnake which had made it's den un-
der the roots of the tree. Their bodies
we're terribly swollen, and looked as if they
had been bitten III several different places.
The oldest child died during the night, and
the three little innocents were buried to-
yether. In their play they had aroused
the snake, and were struck with its iangs
before they could escape the assault.

Two Families Poisoned.

A dastardly attempt was recently made
so poison the families of Henry Miller and
Frank Gibbs, who live in the same house,
seven miles southwest OF Mexico, Mo. A
few days since Mr.. Miller purchased box
through on rats, with which to poison this
rats upon his premises. The poison was
laid away for future use, and nothing more
thought of it until the entire household be-
came violently i'll at the breakfast table
some time after. Suspicion at once pointed
to young negro girl nurse who had
some slight grudge against the family for
an imaginary injury, but she denied having
any knowledge of the whereabouts of the
poison or of having anything to do with
the poisoning. Immediately after the first
symptoms were observed doctors we're sent
for and after working all day and night the
members of both families were supposed to
be out of danger. Now everything points
TO the girls guilt, particularly the facts
that she knew the poison was in the house,
had access to the -four, etc, and had some
petty spite against some members OF the
families She could not be indnced to eat
more than small portion of the bread,
even that making her sick. Owing to the
fact that she is very young, l3 years, she
WAS not arrested but sent home.

SAD FATE OF A YOUNG WIFE.
She Listens to a Gay Dcceiver and Decends
from Riches to Poverty and Death.

Matilda Gardener died few days since in
a miserable hOvel Just beyond the city limits
OF Baltimore, Md, on the Philadelphia
turnpike. She was about 30 years old
when she died in poverty and alone. Ten
years ago she was the petted wife of n
young merchant of Baltimore, who law
Ishcd every luxury upon her. She was the
daughter Of a wcll-tO-do farmer named Alb
ner and spent her girlhood days in Balti-
more County. She was well educated and
accomplished and Il iavorite in the middle
class but respectable society in which she
moved. She appeared dcvOutlv attnrhed
To the young man she married, and for
some years lived very happily together.
Then cloud came over their home She
made the acquaintance of a man whom her
husband suspected from the first as the
person who had determined To wreck their
home. lie warned his gay wife repeatedly,
but she laughed at his cnidnSs and con-
tnued to listen To the soft nOthings of the
haUdsame deceiyer. The end was pretty
much rs il always is when woman allows
her mind 10 be poisoned by hattery. She
fell a victim and Il separation from her
husband followed. She returned to her
fathers homo apparently determined to
make amends for the trouble she had
caused. Her father was old and about
settling up his affairs preparatory 10 death.
lie divided theeState up among his relatives
and the daughter received her share,
amounting 10 about $4,000. She had not
been home long before the man who had
wrecked her marital happiness again made
his appearance. At first she rebuked his
advances, but he soon had her in his power
again, and they went to Philadelphia and
were married. In less than two months
time the man to whom she had entrusted
her honor and her fortune deserted her,
taking with him the $4,000. Again she
sought "A refuge under the parental roof, and
her father once more INDUCED the hope that
she would brighten his declining years. He
hoped in vain, she went from bad to worse,
and her unenviable notoriety broke the old
mans heart. For a while after her final
departure from her fathers house she pros
pered in sin, but dissipation soon destroyed
beauty and all self-respect. She sank lower
and lower until one bitter cold night last
winter she was picked up hall frozen on the
street and sent to the almshouse. There
she remained some time and formed the
last liaisOn OF her wretched career with a
man named Gallaher. After their release
from the almshouse they lived a miserable
life which ended in her death in the tumble
down hut not many miles from the com
fOrtabe home in which she had been SO
tendcrly reared. Gallaher died two months
ago in the hospital and was buried in Pot
ter field at the expense of the city. Near
him iii the same paupers burial gsound lies
the woman whose husband is a prosper Gus
merchant, but whose life is blighted by her
disgrace.
