She was first missed about 7 o'clock. A
hasty search revealed the fact that the lady had

nothing but slippers on her feet, had LEFT the
house. Prof. Waldo was informed aud with
his servants searched the observatory grounds.
By oclook this afternoon nearly six hundred
students and at least two hundred citizens were
searching in all directions for Mrs. Waldo.
About 4 o'clock one of the searching parties
found her at Pine Rock, few miles from the
Waldo residence. AS the party approached
her Mrs. Waldo was trying TO ascend the face
| of q rock which is nearly perpendicular, and
they called to her to hold on until they could
come to her assistance. At that moment she
| was seen to slip on the rock and fall headlong
| down the precipice striking among the rocks At
| the feet Of her friends.
She lived but few minutes after being
picked up. Mrs. Waldo was thirty-fve years

"A man who had never seen the in

" introduced as witness in case
pending in one ofthe Scottish courts, on
being sworn took position with his
back to the jury, and began telling his

bland courteous manner, said: Address
yourself to the jury, sir" The man
made a short pause, but, not compre-
hending what was said to him, forth
with continued his narrative. The Judge
was then more explicit, and said to him:

distance inland. On one occasion, when
passing wild moor, where although there

The Wolf and the Crane.

A Wolf having invited a Crane to dine,
served the food in a shallow plate, so that
the guest could not get any, while the host
Tapped up an abundance with his tongue.
On the next day the Crane invited the
Wolf to dinner, and the food, consisting of
soup, was set out in long-necked jar,
which put 1T entirely out OF the reach Of the
invited guest. But while the Crane had his
head in the jar the Wolf knocked a hole
in the bottom with hammer and swal-
lowed the greater part OF the soup as it

 Tuesday last being the day set apart by the Senate to be devoted to the memory of the late Yice-President Hendricks, great amount of interest was manifested in the solemn occasion. The galleries was crowded to their ut- most capacity while the corridors and aisles were filed with a restless inn patient crowd, anxious to hear and see what was going on upon the floor. The able and fitting tribute paid by Senator Voorhees, to the memory of the dead, was listened to with marked attention, and was well received, as were also the eulogies offered by the other Senators. Probably the finest effort of the day was that of Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin, 9nd when he concluded his remarks with the words, Gods finger touched him and he slept," there was an audible amen from all parts of the crowded room.

A reporter of TIE DAILY TOMBSTONE happened into the hotel in search of news last evenint when he met boyish looking figure sitting back by the billiard d-table looking the picture of despair, and tue reporters newspaper instinct told him at once that if the young man could be induced to talk, an item of some kind could be gleaned from him. So, approaching the young man, the reporter bid hIm good even ing, which salutation was politely returned, The reporter then asked him whether he had any relatives or friends in this city, when be arrived, and several other minor que tlons, until he had got the young man lnto,a talk, ing humor. He then gave the reporter the following account Of himself
 He stated that his right name was not Perkins, but only on assumed name; his father was very wealthy grain dealer in Chicago, ard had always treated him well until he fell in love with the daughter nf large shoe manufacturer, whom hIs father most bitterly. hated.

To this tue young lady consented, and on the 20ih of last month she met him by appointment aud the young couple took the train for Arl- zona. His object in coming to Arizona was because d friend Of his lived here or was last heard from in Tombstone.

She then retired to her room and dressed for the stret, when the reporter in charge of the couple hunted up a justice ol the peace, and they were made man and wife.
