A Strange Case of Abduction.

Little Ernie Emory, winning and
extremely interesting girl of seven years,
while out for a stroll on Fifth avenue,
last Wednesday morning, with female
relative, suddenly and strangely disap-
peared from sight. At least, this is the
story told by her cousin, the relative
above referred to- Instead of at once
reporting the fact to the child's grown sis
ter, Grace Emory, or to her guardian,
the cousin seemed to treat the affair with
Indifference, and only casually referred
to the disappearance of the child about
an hour after her return home.
The CONSERVATION of Grace Emory,
young lady well known in the best soci
ETY. OF New York, may be imagined on
learning that her beloved sister had not
been seen for some hours. The most
intense excitement prevailed in the
alarmed household, and in less than fif-
teen minutes after receiving the startling
intelligence, Grace Emory herself was at
police headquarters, invoking detective
aid in the search for her lost sister.
Detectives were at once put upon the
case ;and one of them, on visiting the
Emory mansion, to make enquiries which
he deemed essential to give him trust
worthy clew, learned that Grace Emory
had as mysteriously disappeared as her
little sister. This was startling surprise,
and the detective was amazed and per-
picked. With the aid of a bright young
reporter, he took up the trail in quest OF
the missing girls, both of whom. he
soon learned, were prospective heiresses
to vast property. How the detective
succeeded in unraveling this remarkable
case of abduction is fully detailed in the
stirring story of "THE MURRAY HILL
MYSTERY" just begun in No. IL of the
New York WEEKLY. Send for sample
copy containing this story. 1t will cost
you nothing. Address STREET & SMITH,

ST. MARY'S ACADEMY.
A Fine programme of Closing Ex-
ercises MeritOriOusly Rendered.

ercises Merftorfously Rendered.
A large number of relatives and friends
of the pupils at St. Mary's Academy, and
not few of the friends of the institution,
assembled yesterday afternoon in Acad-
envy Hall to be entertained by the closing
exercises of that very worthy school. The
| custom of the Academy is to give one OF
these pleasing entertainments at the close
of each semi-annual course, and those
who are at all familiar with these oc-
casions are aware that the purpose Of the
exercises is to afford an exhibition of the
musical and literary talent and ability Of
the pupils as cultivated and developed in
their previous course of study. Yester-
days was perhaps the finest of these ex-
hibitions, and this was due to the rapidly
growing attendance, which furnishes a
wider field from which to make selec-
TONS The following programme was
rendered in manner that must have

knowledge of what the young ladies were

After the programme was finished the
reverend Fathers delivered short ad-
resses expressive of their appreciation
the exercises, and in earnestly advo-
atlng the cause of education:
This closed the first term of the fiscal

ABOUT THOSE HATS.
The SNeWs'' and the ssHerald,, Get
Mixed ON the Matter.

There have been some persistent efforts
put forth through part of the press and
otherwise to make it appear that the
parties who were seen in the Social Hall
alley on the night of the Collin McMurrin
shooting were friends and aids of Deputy
Collin. The Deseret News has franticallv
endeavored to establish this point without
shadow of evidence indeed, while con-
siderable evidence of very suggestive
nature went directly against this pre-
sumption. The investigation certainly
furnished nothing in the nature of evil
dence upon which to base such sus-
picion, and it therefore appears reason
able to conclude that the matter has all
grown out of the prejudices and desires
OF those who have agitated the question.
The latest effort in this direction is a
series of ridiculous charges made by Geo.
w. Davis, the vacillating witness in the
recent examination before Commissioner
Mckay, and the Herald is undignifed
enough to publish the stuff. Davis as
serts that the unclaimed hat found in the
alley belongs to Deputy Mix, and quotes
the little fellow Freddy Southam as evil
dence. 1t is held that the boys-young
Southam, Mix and Collin-picked up the
two hats on the night of November 2Sth
that one was heard to say that ''this
hat" which is still unclaimed, be-
longed to his father Mix. |
while young Collin also asserted that
the other hat was his fathers. In the
first place, it seems very strange that
those little boys should succeed in
penetrating with their youthful optics the
awful darkness of that night while Col
lin, McMurrin and all who afterwards |
went into the alley could not discern any
thing. 1t was in this darkness that Davis
claims the boys re cognized their fathers
hats. They might have been able to de-
tect that the hats were dark colored, but
even this would be taken as dubious testi-
mony under such circumstances. With
out any desire either to defend
the deputies or to disparage the alleged
evidence which would possibly help Nc
Murrin's side of the case, if true. a re-
porter engaged in the task of sitting the
nat business thoroughly, and this is what
he discovered:
First, that the hat referred to is not the
iLe Aor klnu worn Dy deputy Mix, as
evidenced by the numbers and dimen- {
ions, and by the testimony of those who !
ave been in close fellowship with that !
Gentleman. Second, that the boys them {
elves acknowledge that the darkness
vas SO great on the night of the shooting l
hat it would have been quite impossible |
Or them to distinguish one black soft hat /
rom any other OF similar kind.
Mr.. Mix, who was approached on the e
lbject this morning, reiterated his for 1
Ter testimony and gave the strongest /
ind OF assurance that he was neither a
ne owner of that hat nor one of the men
zen In the alley that night Said he: n
l am 9" sorry was not there" r
Mr.: Davis would do well to keep quiet a
. this and all matters until he can con- p
i've to avoid getting SO horribly mixed.
