A JEALOUS WOMAN
Attempts Her Lovers Life, and Then shoots
herself, With Probably Fatal Effects.


JAMESTOWN, o., May 9-Not since the
Humler tragedy have our citizens been so
excited and worked up as they were yester-
day evening over the sad intelligence that
one of the fsirest and most intelligent ladies
OF this vicinity, Miss Flora Johnson, had de-
hberately shot herself with an old army
musket. accomplishing this by tieing her
handkerchief around the trigger. forming a
loop, into which she placed her foot, causing
the gun to be discharged into her left breast,
Just above the nipple.
The cause of the sad affair is said to be a
case of affection centered upon a young man
James Zeiner. late of this city, but now a
resident of Bowersville five miles south of
he1e II seems the young lady was i'll great
distress of mind, and in the morning left
her home and went to Bowersville to see
Zeiner, and while in conversation with him
asked him to marry her. He turned on his
heel and was leaving her, when she called
him to come back, which he did, and W hen
within few feet OF her she drew a revolver
out of her pocket and shot him, the ball
passing through his clothes and entering his
side, but not far enough to prove fatal.
Zeiner then rushed at her and grasped the
weapon just as she was il the act of again
firing it, thereby saving his life.
She pleaded piteOusly for him to return
the revolver that she might kill herself.
Soon after she left the young man and the
villsge for her home, and, going out of her
way, she passed through field in which was
a large pool where she stopped and gazed
for some time, evidently contemplating sui
eide by drowning but which, doubtless, was
prevented by her seeing two gentlemen near
by watching her. From there she went
home, and quickly taking the musket from
the rack deliberately placed it in the position
described and discharged it.
When questioned as to the cause her feeble
answer was that she had no desire to live,
and that she thought from the position oil
the gun there could be no doubt of the re-
suit. She regretted the act only on account
of her sufferings, which can last but a few
hours, as recovery is impossible.
Miss Johnson was a talented young lady,
the daughter of Robert Johnson, one of our
wealthy farmers.

Meeting of Anarchists.

ST. Louis, May 9.-The Anarchists of this
city. who number about 100 held a meeting
to-day and after INDUCING in several of their
usual incendiary speeches, adopted resolu-
tions charging the police of Chicago with
trampIing on the freedom of the press, steal
ing the property of the workingmen's
papers and with manslaughter; indorsing
the action of their brothers in Chicago,
denounciDg the police of that city for
killing defenseless workingmen, unlawfully
breaking up their meetings and confscating
their papers, and their intention OF emulat-
ing their brothers in Chicago and to uphold
the red flag as the standard OF freedom,
equality and brotherhood.
The Socialists held a meeting at which
some resolutions of a very much miller
character. however were passed, the
chief point Of which was the attributing
the militia by the Governors Of Illinois and
Wisconsin.
ST. LoUIs, MSy "a Baltimore Nd spe-
cial says that General Master Workman Pow
. DERBY, of the Knights of Labor, acting under
the authority vested In him by the General
Executive Board, has issued a call to the va
rious assemblies of the Order for special
session of the General Assembly, to be held
Ii. Cleveland O., on Tuesday, May 25 The
causes leading to the calling OF the session
are gwen as follows:
]. The rapidly increasing membership OF the
Order requires changes in the laws which the Gen
eral Executive Board has no authority to make.
2. The laws in relation to the government of
boycotting are wholly inadequate to compel ODE
dience On the part of assemblies that believe in
boycotting for every ofense, whether great or
small.
3. The laws in relation to strikes de not give
the General Executive Board power TO interfere in
such matters until after the strike has been inau-
gurated.
ties with trade societies, aud an effort is being
made to create a rupture between these societies
and the knights of Labor.

ALEXANDER SULLIVAN.
HE views in Relation TO the Recent Chicago
Riot.


New YoEK, May fine Herald this morn
ing prints an interesting interview with Alex
and,r Sullivan OF Chicago. In commenting
on The editorial OF the London papers on the
Chicago riots. Mr.. Sullivan sgid: 4 have
lead the report with much interest, and
some things said by the London press are
quite remarkable. The Globe missed the
truth when il compared the Irish with the
alien anarchists of Chicago. The people in
Ireland who are struggling for self-govern-
ment, peace and proper remuneration for la
Dor, are natives of Ireland, while the violent
rioters who have caused the outbreak in Chi.
cago are not citizens OF this country. They
can only be called aliens who are in utter
ignorance, not only of our institutions, but
also in q great measure of our langulg
Many of them have not been in the country
for any length of time, and can not speak
word of English. They have no organ
in the English language. They have
come here, the victims of some fancied or
real grievances in their own land, where the
remedies they believed in we've the torch, the
dagger and the barricaden
Were any laboring men among the riot
ers?'
Most certainly not. The meeting held
q
meeting. The intellectual workiDgmen of
this country know that violence is not an
American remedy. They also know that the
workinemen of to day may tomorrow be the
employer, next year the capitalist. The
change, they also KNOW, is brought about by
industry, sobriety and peace. The laws of
the country provide ample remedy for every
known grievance. and the people have the
power TO provide additional remedies as new
grievances arise"
lis there danger of 4 repetition OF the out
break "
About all there is of the strength of the
Anarchists has already come to the surface.
They will not increase in number, for they
are loa;hed by the industrious, intelligent
and law abiding working people of Chi
cago."
"Do you Lnow Inspector Bonfeld, Mr.. Sui
livan?''
II know him thoroughly well. In fact he
is my client, ana | am defending him IN two
cases for damages charging him with using
unnecessary severity in dealing with
strikers last year. He Is one
OF the fravest and best police
fficeIs in the United States. 1t is aosurd TO
say that he has any hostility TO wOrkingmen.
He is a wOrkingman himself, and probably
does more work per day all the year around
than the men who are aSsailing him. l am
in sympathy with the tight-hOur movement
aud hope to see it succeed. The proposed re-
duCtion of time could and should be dis
cussed like any other humane proposition
and without any i'll will between employer
and employee. Please say for me-" added
Mr. Sullivan. that the comments of the
English press rebound upon themselves.
The 81. James Gazette speaks of the insti-
gators of the trouble as aliens. That is ex-
actly the trouble in Ireland. Let them make
the-sam remarks about the aliens who are
trying to ruin Ireland, and then the case
viii be put in its true light.

bridge. President Eliot and the Harvard
professors are there oftener than at any other
house. Mrs. Mosher's most intimate friend
is Mrs. J. G. Thorpe, daughter of the poet
LODgfellow.
Tt is whispered that the leaders of Boston
culture have determined to rebuke the aris-
tocracy OF the politicians and the plutocrats
at Washington, and that Mr. and Mrs. Doug
lass will receive marked ovations here pre-
vious to their departure for Europe early in
June. There is al-eady secured an audience
of large size and good quality for the Doug
lass lecture on John Brown" to be given in

incensed at his marriage to white woman.

of the Birmingham Coal Company and one
each of Brown Il Sons and Sneathen Il Will

Bloody Fight over a Keg of Beer.

CHICAGO, May s,-A special dispatch from Des
Moines. iowa, says: "The first blood shed over
the attempted enforcement of the new prohibit
tory law occurred in les Moines yesterday. A
constable named Pierce repaired to South Des
Moines with a warrant to search the premises of
Nym Wyatt, who runs billiard hall. His efforts
were rewarded by the discovery of a small keg of
beer in the cellar which he seized and carried to
the floor above. Here Mrs. Wyatt took hold of
the keg and attempted to recover posses
sion of it, when Pierce drew heavy revolver on
her Harry Lloyd. employed upon the premises,
struck down his arm. The two men thereupen
became engaged IN struggle, which
did not end until they had tumbled out
of doors and rolled down an embankment the
officer alighting on top, when he put his pistol
against LlOyd's body and fired. following this up
with terrible blow on the head with the revolver.
The ball struck a rib and glanced, following 1t
around nearly to the spine, where it lodged and
was extracted. The wound is probably fatal.
After the shooting Pierce hastily retreated to Des
Moines. where he was arrested and placed in jail.
Great excitement followed, and large crowd sur
rounded the courthouse and freely talked of
lynehing. Forty armed men guarded the jail all
night and the militia were kept under arms. 1t Is
thought that Pierce is slightly demented. He has
made many enemies by his methods OF searching
private houses and other places for liquor.
