Women Who Toll.

From the New J ork Mail and Express.
The number of women IN this city
who earn a living by the needle Is diff

OF establishments on all the business

given out to be done. A reporter for
the Mail and Express recently asked
two sewing girls what sort OF a living
they made.
How much are you paid for making
hose garments 2" asked the scribe.
"VIe get 25 cents apiece" was the
,eady reply.
And you DO all the work necessary
On them for a quarter OF dollar ?''
"Yes"

ROASTED TO DEATH.
Terrible Vengeance Visited Upon a Ne
gro Murderer IA Alabama.


/ A dispatch OF the 2Sth from Mobile,
Ala, says: ALEX Reed, who murdered
Miss Carrie Boyer at Gainestown,
/ Clarke County, was captured Friday
night near Caffeeville, on the Rodes
/ plantation. Reed was taken by two
negro men. The whites and blacks
had Joined IN the search and the river
/ banks had been secured and every
avenue OF escape cut on. The blacks
were as eager as the whites to catch
the murderer. When captured a guard
was placed over Reed who was placed
IN chains and marched to Gainestown.
People along the road demanded that
Reed should be lynched, but the guard
replied that he must be taken to the
scene OF the crime. The guard then
numbering 200 men, reached Gaines
town with the prisoner, at O'Clock
Sunday morning. The negro main
talned sullen silence Til Sunday, when
he confessed his guilt. He said he had
noUlntended TO kill theyoung lady, but
that his gun went of accidentally and
wounded her. Seeing that he was in for
II anyhow he beat out her brains with
the stock OF his gun. The crime, il viii
be remembered, was one of great
atrOcIty. Reed assaulted the young
lady while she was walking home after
having visited a friend near Gaines
town. He concealed himself with his
gun by the roadside, and sprang on
the young lady as she passed through
a strip Of woods. She resisted, and
was too strong for him TO carry out
his purpose. He then struck her with
his fist and gun. The brave girl fought
him until he shot her and murdered
her by striking her repeatedly after
she fell. After the arrival OF Reed and
the guard of GainestOwn. il was evi-
Dent but short shrist would be allowed
him. About 2 O'Clock IN the afternoon
A crowd OF 500 persons, white and
black, took the prisoner out on the
road near the spot where the murder
had been committed and chained him
to tree. Blacks and whites piled
wood upon the miserable Grim
lnal, and when the pile was
breast high, one among them
applied the torch. As the
flames shot upward. the negro gave a
shrek of agony. The crowd seeing the
smoke and flames enyelOping him, did
-4CL N4cA4 MN " VIC 81 cash LACy
scattered the brands, and the man
was seen writhing in agony. Once more
a pile of light wood was constructed,
and the flames sprang up briskly,
scorchIng the negro terribly. Before
they became fatal, however, they were
again subdued and again the doomed
wretch was seen cOnvulsed with terror
and pain. The third time the pile was
lighted it was allowed to do its work,
and the body Of Reed was completely
reduced TO ashes. The crowd then
dispersed to their homes. This Is the
second incident OF the kind IN the
same place. About seven years ago a
negro preacher, who murdered an old
lady and a little boy, and assaulted a
young lady, was in a similar manner,
Uied to a stake and roasted TO death

The American Railroad Hog.

To know the American you must see
all sides Of him. On a train between
Jersey City and Paterson, a poorly
dressed woman carrying a baby IN her
arms, walked through two cars and
was unable to find a seat. The rail-
road Hog was there. In a dozen cases
be had a whole seat to himself and his
bundles, and he meant to keep Il. The
woman finally took a seat n the
smoking-car. Soon after the Hog went
forward TO enjoy cigar, and found
her crying.
What's the matter
Baby Is very III, sir. .
"And where are you going g2'
ITO my sisters. Ny husband is
dead, and have no home -
Leave you any money ?'
"Not a dollar, sir."
s'Umph Sorry for you. Let me
hand you this"
The Hog had been robbed Of his
bristles Woman's tears had melted
him. He returned to his car, gathered
the other Hogs about him and said.
Come down. Poor widow-sick
babv-no home. Come down =
Inc dOgS Went down lot LneE Wal
let's, and IN ten minutes a handsome
sum was put into the woman's hand,
and the Boss Hog observed:
sarThere-there-its : all rigdt-not &
word Now come back here
She followed him into the next car.
and a dozen Hogs rose and insisted
that she take their seats.
The railroad Hog can't be crowded,
but he can be melted.

Az ASYLUM BURNED.
row Escape From a Terrible CaIam-
ftv at Newark ~. j.

On the afternoon OF the 2d inst, fire
was discovered IN the easterly front
wing OF the insane asylum, which Is
situated about two mics from the
center OF Newark, \. J. The flames
shot un tl.t chute 70 the attic and N a
few nliu3att i was a seethIng mass of
flames. The wing was 500 feet long.
and as the interior fittings were of
oiled pine, they ignited very readily
and burned ferceIy In this wing we're
lob patients. The medical suDeriu-
UendeT1t At once summoned his staff OF
ass stants and IN a few minutes All of
ne 1nIOrtunares were mustered into
tie yard without accident. OF the
patients taken out thirtv-two were
women and seventy. one men. Very lit
lie difficulty was experienced IN CON
trolling them. The entire fire depart
-Eent vas summoned TO the scene, but
could render little service owing to the
scarcity OF water. The flames spread
20 the third floor rapidly and along
the entire length OF the wing in bor5
directions 1t the west end it was
stopped by brick wall TWENTY-FIVE
inches thick, which prevented its
spread 10 the center and other wings
OF the institution. By hard work the
nreInen kept the flames 10 the two Z
loors, although the lower floors were (
oadiy dama-ed by water. The total +
loss VII probably amountto $4,000. .

upon as a joke and nothing more as

Buildings in Ashes.

whites Theafer and a Number of Other
Buildings in Ashes.
Shortly after Q O'Clock on the morn
ing of the 1st, smoke was OBJ
served coming from D. NJ Fer
~ & Co.'S mammoth seed ware
house on Brush Street, between CrOg-
han and Lafayette Streets, Detroit.
The flames had started IN the pack
ing department. on the corner Of La
iayerre and Brush Streets, and soon
envelOped the whole building, which
was a mere shell, having but one solid
wall inside OF the outer walls.
Bravely and inteIligently the fire
men kept at their work, but all
efforts seemed futile. the flames
spreading rapidly, and soon reached
across the alley to Whites Grand
CheaUer. the WessOn block and a
smaller building used as a restaurant.
By IL o clock all the buildings men
toned were IN ruins, involving a loss
estimated at 100000. During the
progress of the fire No. 3 fire company
raised a ladder IN front OF the theater
TO get a better chance at the flames.
Finding the rapidly advancing ire
would prevent aCy effective work at
that point, the men were descending
the ladder and had about reached the
ground, when several feet OF cOrnlce
tell on the ladder wagon. Capt. Rich
ard EIlban was struck on the head by
the bricks and instantly killed. and
Fireman White was badly but not
fatally injured. The total insurance
Is placed al about $3.50. 600.

Mrs. Elizabeth Knoch, the mother
OF Frank Knoch, who was murdered
III Spring Wells, Detroit. on the night
OF December Is, with his entire family.
and the house burned to hide the
crime, died on the night of the 1st inst.
under circumstances which suggested
poisoning. a post mortem examin-
alton was held when TO the surprise
OF the physicians il was found that
her skull had been fractured bv a
heavy blow which has left no mark.
1t was suspected that she and a son
Gustave had had some connection
with the former murders and the Off
GERS had been expecting an ante NOR
TEN statement from the mother. who
had been confined at home with nerv-
Gus prOstr6tlOn, II is said, ever since
she was on the stand at the inquest
on the victims of the late tragedy.
Suspicion has turned TO Gustave ana
Il Is now strengthened by the murder
OF the mother, though as vet no con
vlcting evidence has been discovered.

witted fellow, who has been once con-
fined IN an insane asylum and an uncle
