A Victim OF VltrioI.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, March 1a.--Dr.
George NJ. Cox, United States Pension Ex-
aminer at Springfield, Missouri, induced
Miss Ef1ie Ellis, the mistress of Fenton
Cox, his son, to enter carriage with him
and when she was seated he struck her over
the head with bottle of vitriol, breaking
the vessel and smearing her face and head
with the acid.
Her screams attracted the attention of
the police who released her from the fren-
zied physician, but not until her eyes were
burned out and her handsome features de-
stroyed by the powerful vitriol, which
burned in the gashes made 5y the broken
glass. The agony of the woman was in
tense and she now lies at the point of
death.
FELTON, Cox met Effie at Wisconsin wa
tering place last summer and brought her
to Springfield, and since has pursued a
course OF debauchery and ruin. The Doc
tor by legal means broke up n variety show
which his boy had started with Efiie as the
leading lady, and drove her out of the town,
but the boy followed her to st. Louis and
continued his reckless course, in six weeks
throwing away 3, coo on her and disgracing
himself in other ways. Before meeting with
her he had been promising lad, and his
sudden ruin distracted his parents and drove
his father to this terrible crime.

Judge Gresham's Decision.

CHICAGO, March 14.-Judge Gres-
Wabash case. He said the Wabash
as common carrier, although in The GUS
tody of the court, and as such was bound to
afford equal facilities in the interchange of
traffic to all connecting railway lines. But,
he continued, no more need be said on the
question as the receiver has rescinded his
instructions which Disseminated against
the petitioner, and has no purpose nor de-
sire to deny the petitioner any of its legal
rights.
AS to the complaint of the petitioner that
the Brotherhood of Engineers and Chief
Arthur had interfered to prevent the Wabash
from handling Burlington freight theJudge
said: 1.-THE receiver makes no such COM
plant. On the contrary, he declares that
the Brotherhood had done nothing of the
kind. Itdid not appear that the engineers
had at any time offered any interference
with the Wabash railway. Should they do
so, the court would protect the receiver of
the v abash. The employees of the Wabash
could not be compelled to continue in its
employ If they did not choose to do so but
they could be punished for any conspiracy
to injure its business"
In conclusion the Court said: at is
proper to state, however, in justice to the
Wabash engineers that they do not desire
to maintain an attitude in defiance to the
law and that they are now willing to aid
the receiver in. the lawful and successful
administration of his trust. The receivers
answer renders 1t unnecessary for the
Court to do more than direct that the Pc
tition shall remain on file for future action
should there be any occasion for it"

Hit 1t Both Ways,

Arkansaw Traveller
Matthew Steffens is Chicago po-
liceman who has had streak of luck
Many day, when the mercury ran
low. has Matthew shivered on State
and Harrison streets and contemplated
the unhappiness of the policeman S
lot. One cold night last month an
idea flashed forth upon his inner con-
seriousness and grew upon hun as he
trod the ice along this weary beat, i'm
pelliDg him almost against his will to
WOO the tickle goddess Fortune.
And SO he took two dollars of his
hard earned wealth and bought two
tickets, each but Il tenth coupon. in
the lottery whose monthly drawings
are overseen by those two ex-COnfeder-
ate warriors, Beauregard and Early.
And when on the 7th of February the
drawing occurred, it transpired that
Matthew'S presentiment was n tip
from his good angel, for one of his
tickets was tenth of No. 71,575,
which drew the first capital prize of
$3.50, 900, while the other drew tenth
Of a prize of 800. The latter wasn't
much but it showed the fellows luck.
A Traveller reporter dropped in AT
the Harrison st. station day or two
ago just for the sake Of seeing how
such lucky man might look, but
Steffens was gone. He had got his
$4,000, bought saloon on State ST.,
and taken train to the Hot Springs
Of Arkansaw to thaw out the cold that
had accumulated during the recent
blizzard. Clerk Daniel Hogan was
on hand, and said he saw the $4,000
when 1t came, on February 18th, all in
$500 bills in a Southern Express envel-
ope, from the Louisiana State Lottery.
Mr.. Steffens will return to Chicago
In a few days, when his many friends
will have chance to congratulate him
at his saloon. No. 3s5 State street. He
is now on leave of absence, but upon
his return he will send in his resigna-
ton as police officer, and with such a
comfortable little fortune as has thus

house sometimes, but her visits were
flying ones.
She was still in love with Paul, and
could not bear to be long away from
him.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Ravenswood also
went to see Ellie, but she was too, con
scious of the deficiencies in her little
establishment, when compared to theirs
to- press them to remain, for where the
L'Estrange's had hundreds her parents
had thousands.
Still, her home was pretty and taste
full in the extreme, and the young wife
was contented with her lot in life.
Paul earned good income, and
lived up to it; he saved nothing, going
to the utmost limit of his means.
He was essentially an ease loving
man, and to wish a thing with him was
to have it.
He was perfectly happy in his pres
ent, and troubled himself nothing about
his future.
He was a favorite with the public, a
proficient with his craft, admired as
good fellow among men, and adored as
perfectly delightful by women.

posal | shall go over there to see
him Immediately after lunch"
Now this suited Ellie exactly, for it
was her intention, as soon as her father
had started, to slip out and meet Paul
L'Estrange, but she thought it would
sound well to demur.
81 wouldn't trouble about it if l were
you, dad. I'm not really in love with
him, although rs you pointed out to
me, it would have been a good match,
and it would have been pleasant for
you to have talked of your daughter,
Lady Cranburn-eh, father?"
"My dear, shall do so yet. If there
has been any misunderstanding l shall
be able to set it right. l conclude you
will accept him if he proposes to youp"
Certainly, papa, if he does," she
said readily.
But Lord Cranburn never did propose
again.
Mr.. Ravenswood carried his intention
into execution.
He went over to see his lordship, but
could make nothing of him.
All the information on the subject
he could elicit was that he had thought
the matter over deeply, and that, much
as he had admired and liked Miss
Ravenswood, he felt that she was too
young for him; and that, after seeing
her at the picnic the day before, he was
sure that she would not be suited to the
somewhat dull life he could offer her.
Mr.. Ravenswood answered him with
calm politeness, and the men parted;
but the merchant was simply furious
at what he deemed Lord Cranburn's
want of honor.
"He shall darken my doors no moreH'
cried the irate father.
And he kept his word.
