A STRANGE COUNTRY.
The Smoking Mountains, Boiling springs
and Mud Volcanoes Of New Zealand.

The Smoking Mountains, Boiling Springs
and Mud Volcanoes of New Zealand.
Visiting innumerable springs, We
passed the base of a mountain about
one-third of a mile long and three hum
dred feet high, the side of which was
honeycombed with smoking and steam
ing openings so close together and the
crust so thin that even the Maoris dare
not venture to climb the hillside.
Leaving this remarkable place, which
is suggestive of a traditional region
where unquiet spirits are remanded,
We passed a cave, the entrance to which
was formed by two large stone posts
and heavy stone cap, and the interior
walled up similarly: it was quite small
and very pleasantly warm, and is said

and doubt if it is fattening. We were
by this time quite hungry, but this
edible mud did not tempt us, and we
moved on 10 the margin of Lake ROto-

RICHMOND AGAIN EXCITED.
A Dying Woman Accuses Her Husband
Of Murder.

Richard Shinnick kept for some years low
saloon on 9th street in Richmond. Not long ago
Sh1nnick sold out and went west, leaving his sick
VIE behind him. Last Saturday, Mrs. Shinnick
thinking her end near, sent for Police Justice
Richardson, and to him related the details OF a
murder perpetrated by her husband over year
ago. Shinnick lived over the barroom and his
wife was frequently called upon TO assist him.
She says that one night last fall between IL and IL
O'Clock, she happened to enter the bar by the back
door when she saw her husband, who was I'm front
OF the bar counter strike and knock down a white
man with a pair or brass knuckles; that he turned
and seeing her. ordered her TO go up stairs, which
she did. She could not rest, however and Creep
Ing down again she peeped into the bar, when she
was Mortified by seeing her husband drag mans
body behind the counter, rob II OF roll OF money,
raise the trap at the end OF the bar and push the
body into an Old well under the floor.
Upon this information the police yesterday went
and dragging tor the hidden WELL but up to 8
O'Clock last night mad made no discovery. The
whole place, however, WI be thoroughly over
hauled Last fail two state officials, j. NJ. Carroll
city treasurer OF Staunton, and W. H. Crawford
clerk OF Bland county, left their homes for Rich,
mond, since which time neither or them has ever
been heard from, and the BELIEF Is strongly preya-
lent that one OF these was Shtnnick's victim The
wtfes description OF the murdered man in some
respects agrees with the appearance OF both, but
murdered man as umntne ana Crawford had 3
short or shrunken leg and used cr.ltch.
The last that was heard from Shinnick he was
In Cincinnati, whence he wrote last month two
letters to an eXdetectfve asking Information as TO
what was going on in Richmond, il he was talked
about In any way, and what was said about him;
II his wife had ever given out anything about him.
and saying ne had gotten a divorce from her and
that he wanted to come back to Richmond He
warned the eX-detecttye TO say nothing about
writing TO him. The Cincinnati authorities have
been telegrapned TO arrest Shinnick IL he can be
found.
