The Young Woman Whom Clerk
 Geary Had Married Speaks of Her
 Strange Freak.
 WoBURN, Mass, Aug. 16.-Mrs. Edward McAllister, formerly Annie Murphy, who was brought into prominent notice last week and who was obliged to ask aid to get home from New Haven, has reached her home here. Annie was disposed to talk freely of her ad- ventures. She said to reporter to-day: "I cannot understand how I could do such a thing. My mother is just as good as can be and the whole family are attached to me, as is shown by the reception I received on ar irving home. It was funny freak" Mrs. McAllister said she and McAllister went away on Tuesday, July 13. That night they took train for New York where they remained two weeks, he working in crockery store, and they lived on Lexington avenue. They "did" New York up in style. Finally they concluded to spend the remainder of their honeymoon in the city of brotherly love. Their finances, however, would not warrant the purchase of tickets and they concluded to take the road. They reached Philadelphia late on Friday. It was the same old story in Philadelphia of "no work" A short stay was again made in New York, but Miss Murphy got home sick and again they began their long tramp home and brought up in New Haven and thence to Woburn Mrs MoAllister said her mother seemed pleased that she was married.

THE sOMERvILLE POIsoNER

Has an Interview With Her Nineteen Year Old Son-Traces of Poison Found in the Body of Her Seven Year old Boy.
 BOSTON, August 16.-Mrs. Sarah J. Rob- inson, the alleged Somerville poisoner, was
 granted an interview to-day with her son Charlie, aged nineteen. The scene can scarcely be imagined. The boy gave way to little affected. She proclaimed her in-
 nocence. Mother" asked the youth, "were you at that ice cream festival at Clarendon Hall that evening last Junes There are peo-
 pie who say you poisoned it. Is that so2'
 sNo, Charlie" she replied. "I never used any poison. I have heard that some sus- pected me of it, but it is not true. I was at a meeting of the Pilgrim Fathers in Charlestown all that evening"" Mrs.
 Robinson said to-day that she never received cent of Elizabeth's money, that it all went to Charlie. sShe said that $325 was paid by Willie for burial lot for Elizabeth, s1OO for casket and $400 for the teams. By several other expenditures the money rapid ly disappeared It was understood that tes- timony will be offered by the de- fense to show that Willie drank 8 glass of soda on his way home the day he was taken sick and vomited before he reached the honse on his way up Claren- don Hill. Lawyer Crane says the only l charge of murder which can be brought is on Willie's case.
 The body of the seven year old Freeman | boy, Thomas Arthur, was disinterred from | the Garden cemetery at Chelsea to day and
 the organs were examined. Clear traces of
 poison were detected. No symptoms of any
 disease were found. The physicians are l satisfied that the child's death was ! not the result of natural causes. | The sudden death of old MT. Sleeper, who died in Cambridge and part of whose house
 vas occupied by Mrs. Robinson, from heart
 disease as was supposed, is now believed to
 have been caused by poison administered by | Mrs. Robinson. Samuel D. Line of | Northampton, who was for years an 1 intimate friend of MT. Sleeper says that just previous to the death of Sleeper s, 900
 mortgage had been redeemed, but after his death the money could not be found. Lane
 believes Mrs. Robinson took that and also
 a diamond pin and other articles of
 value. Lane received an illspelled letter
 ostensibly from Sleeper, directing him to
 turn over Sleeper's furniture to Mrs. Robin
 son and allow her to occupy the house.
 Probably Mrs. Robinson wrote it. She left the house owing $137 rent.

Catanh to C0Dsumnti0n.

No single disease has entailed more suffering or hastened the breaking up of the constitution than Catarrh. The sense of smell of taste, of sight, of hearing, the human voice, the mind-one or more and sometimes all, yield to it's destructive infiu ence. The poison it distributes throughout the tenn attacks every vital force and breaks up the most robust of constitutions. Ignored, because but little understood, by mo physicians inpo- tently assailed by quacks and charlatans, those suffering from it have lttl hope be relieved of it this side of the grave It is time then that the popular treatment of this terrible disease by reme- dies within the reach of all passed into hands at once competent and trustworthy The new and hitherto untried method adopted by Dr Sanford in the preparation of his Radical Cure has the hearty approval of thousands. It is instantaneous in affording relief in all head colds sneezing snuff fling and obstructed breathing, and rapidly re- moves the most oppressive symptoms, clearing the head, sweetening the breath, res bring the senses of smell, taste and hearing, and neutralizing the constitutional tendency of the disease towards the lungs liver and kidneys
 Sanford's Radical Cure consists of one bottle of the Radical Cure, one box Catarrhal Solvent and one improved inhaler, neatly wrapped in one pack age with full directions; price $1.

The n. P. triumphant.

Judge Deadly on July LIST handed down
his decision in the case Of the Northern
Pacific Express company vs. the Wells'
Fargo & Co. Express company involving
the right of the latter to do business on
the lines of the former eompany's rail-
way in Washington territory, Idaho,
Montana, Dakota and Minnesota. The
argument in this case was made by
counsel on either side on Monday last
and was taken under advisement by the
court until Thursday when the decision
was rendered. 1t is in conformity with
the decision of the supreme court OF the
United States in the Missouri Pacific case
and is in effect that one common carrier
cannot be required to carry business
against the protests of another common
carrier on its own lines The supreme
court decision was cited by Judge Deady
as the highest authority which the courts
below must recognize as supreme in law
and in equity. The effect of this decision
is to bar the Wells-Fargo company from
doing any express business on the lines
of the Northern Pacific. The above
telegram published in the Independent
gave Bozemanites the first news of the
decision, which was not entirely unlock
ed for. At present writing the Wells
Fargo Co., are not crrring express to
points reached by the Northern Paclhc
and it probable that they will leave the
road entirely very soon.

Riparian and Irrigation Rights.

The past few months has witnessed a
continued discussion on the Pacific coast
over the question of riparian rights.
The people IN many parts OF California
are almost wholly dependent upon irriga-
ton for farm and hay products and every
day proves more clearly the Importance
and necessity for the most careful hus-
bandry Of all sources of water supply.
In some cases there has been organized
large canal companies that propose to
take out all of the water from respectable
sized rivers and carry it out onto the
desert lands, thus making large settle
ment of small farmers where before was
a parched and desolate waste. But in so
doing they will rob the settlers along
the margins of these streams of their
water supply because heretofore they
have taken out small bitches only on the
first benches as they happened to re-
quire without recording any water rights.
This turning of the water from its natu-
raj course and using it, or letting it back
into the channel hundred miles below
is what sets the granger brethren on fire
and is making the warmest kind Of a
discussion. The settlers along the streams
claim that under the English common
law rule the riparian rights principle
right to enjoin others r. m divertIng If
from its natural course.
The other side, styled in the press
"Appropriationists," insist that the
proper thing to be done is to amend the
state constitution 50 as to enable all of
the water Of a river to be appropriated"
by company and peddled out to those
along the line of the ditch as they need
and can afford to pay for it
The water question is one that all Of
our grazing territory will soon cave to
grapple with because the time is not far
off when we will be so heavily stocked
with cattle that the hay-producing bot
toms and irrigable lands will be taxed to
their utmost capacity in order to prevent
too heavy mortality among the old
cows and calves of the herds. 1t is a
good plan to at once begin the inyestiga-
ton Of the matter.

SOMEWHAT PENNY WISE, ETC.

To commence at the beginning: At
the last regular meeting of the city coun-
cal, the report of Will T. Davis, expert
accountant engaged by Mayor Monroe
to audit the books and records of eX-
Treasurer Robertson, was read, accepted
and ordered filed. Mr.. Davis report
shows that the books, records, vouchers,
etc, of the ex-treasurer are in exact
accordance with his lRobertson's) finan-
cial statement submitted to the council
at the close of the last fiscal wear; also
that the treasurer had retained G M
mission of six per cent on all moneys
paid Into his hands by other officers,
amounting during the year to $23;67.
Immediately after the filing of this re-
port, Alderman Story moved that the
city clerk notify ex-Treasurer Robertson
to refund the amount retained by him as
commission on said funds paid into the
city treasury by other officers. The mo-
ton was carried. Mr.. Story again
moved: "Tbat the city clerk be directed
to prepare an ordinance repeating all
other ordinances and orders relating to
tfeasurer's percentage, and enforcing the
order allowing him six per cent, as
passed May 14th, 1885" This motion
was also carried. The foregoing is neres-
sarily published, in order that the
CHRONICLE may at this time explain a
matter which is liable to a misconstruc- /
ton by those not conversant with the
facts. The order OF May I4th 1885, re-
ferred to, reads as follows: That the
compensation of the city assessor, col /
lector and treasurer shall be six per |
centum on all assessments and collec
tions of whatsoever nature, made by /
him, including all taxes and licences
collected, and not including moneys col |
lected and paid to him by other officers,
and that such percentage shall be in full
as compensation for assessing the proper
ty In the city, collection of taxes and
licenses, and disbursing the public
funds" The minutes of the meeting of
May 14th, in which this order is entered
in record of council proceedings, was
June 4th, 1885, by the city
council The council had previously
repealed, by ordinance. all ordinances
and orders relating to, or allowing the
eitv treasurer, assessor and collector any
consequently the order Of
May 14th had to be taken in lieu Of an
ordinance. When we keep in mind the
fact that the ex-freasurer did not present
his claim for percentage on the as
sessed valuation of the property in the
city, returned by him for 1885, as under
the terms of that order he had lawful
right to do, we can but express our sur
prise at the financial wisdom of a mu-
that would insist upon the

WILL REMAIN DEMOCRATIC.

A very ably written article upon Mon
tana politics in the Pioneer Press, con-
cludes with the following paragraph:
at may be unpleasant to admit the
fact, but it remains a fact nevertheless,
that the western states by that | mean
the Rocky mountain states, Colorado
and Nevada-are of the political complex
ion advocated by majority of their lib
eral rich men. A vast majority of the
rich men of Colorado were and are to-
day republicans. They have given freely
of their money to keep 1t republican,
and they have succeeded. Money has
always triumphed in Nevada. So it will
in Montana. The rich men of Montana
are nearly all democrats, and they are
said to be princes when the shekels are
needed. The republicans here realize
this and it discourages them. 1t is just
to say, however, that considering their
means and opportunities, the republic
ans Of Montana have made gallant
fight for supremacy. Neither party is
exceptionally well organized nor discip-
lined"
