take the necessary steps before the SUI

while the new law explicitly says that no

His Last Close Shave.

New York Journal: A stout man in
buff-colored overalls climbed a ladder
which he had placed in front of the
store windows of No. 70 Bergen street,
Brooklyn, yesterday morning and with
one sweep of a paint brush obliterated
the lettering which had appeared on O
black sign with "A gilt border.
Several men and n couple of ladies
saw the painter wipe out the lettering.
From the language used by the men it
would appear that they would have been
most happy to have come in contact, il
only for u few minutes, with the indi-
vidual whose nam had graced that
sign.
johnson d'Aborc, Tonsorial parlors.
Special parlor for ladies'" This is
what the signboard had said. And the
place had gained some repute among
the fashionable people in that section.
The parlors were handsomely fitted
| up and the proprietor had plenty Of GUS
toners.
What caused the obliteration of the
Danish barber's name from the sign was
the fact that he had gone away leaving
behind him innumerable debts, IA dis
consulate wife, and taking with him q
pretty Swedish girl who was madly in
love with him.
A year g last July '.Professor'' Jake
Bigelow, who was then proprietor of
the tonsorial parlors, died, leaving a
pretty and plump little German widow,
who continued the business with the
financial assistance and custom of
Snapper" Garrison, the well-known
jockey. She eventually engaged john
son d. Adore to superintend the work.
Afterward she married him.
Having become proprietor Of the
place, D'Abore also became IA mar about
| town and in tho nnDpSn pf his pypupsinnQ
about the city he met Augusta Larson,
who kept the White Star laundry, at
| No. 472 Bergen street. She had "a good
business, and could afford to enjoy her
self. The shine of the Danes patent
feathers or his handsome whiskers
caught her fancy, and when he told her
he was u bachelor she accepted his add
yances.
He told her one day last week that he
had sold out his. business and was going
out west. She was disconsolate and he
pursuaded her that they might be happy
together if she would sell out and ac-
company him. This was putting her
love to the test, but she was equal to the
emergency.
For several days the Dane went
among his friends borrowing money.
lie managed TO collect about $500. He
got $50 Of this from plumber Thomas
Pitt and S43 from a poor Norwegian
domestic, who had lately received tho
money from the old country. In the
meantime Augusta sold out her laundry.
ON Saturday the pair left the city and
it is supposed that they are on their way
west together.
The departure of the Dane became
known Saturday evening and his wife
vent into Mysteries when told OF it. The
people TO whom he owed money put the
sheriffs into the tonsorial parlors on
Monday and the deserted wife doesn't
know how she will get them out.

CHICAGO LIVE STOCK.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-fSpecial Telegram to
the BEE. l-CATTLE-Business was unusually
slow, even for Saturday. The run was less
than the average, yet buyers seemed utterly
Indifferent, sitting in the shade of the ex-
change building exchanging ideas and specu-
lating on next weeks supply rather than look
ing over the stock on hand. or course, the
run last week was big and every buyer went
in for a big string and, again, the theory with
buyers is strong that receipts next week, on
account of the expiration Of contracts, will
be more than ordinarily heavy and that they
can get all they want and on days that suit
them. Some statesmen that had steers that
they fancied would not bring the money they
were worth considered it useless
to offer them, SO that the bulk
OF trading was in cows, bulls and
other odds and ends, all of which
sold about the same as heretofore. Yet steers
closed 100000 lower than last Monday.
There were no Texans on sale this morning.
A load or two of feeders were sold to go into
the country and the yard spectators bought
n few slight steers, which comprised about
all the transactions in the stockers and feeder
line. Steers 1850 to 1900 lbs, S4.2595.00; 1900

Severe Treatment of a Mormon Con
vert.

Philadelphia Ledger: The Mormon
missionaries who have zen trying to
''evangeliae" the county people in por-
tions of West Virginia have not met
with n cordial reception from many Of
the natives, nor have their occasional
converts become objects of popular ven
Grafton. "Among the districts in which
these missionaries have been at work"
says o special to the New York World,
sis that of Yellow Creek, in Calhoun
county. They made several converts,
when the people became indignant and
ran them out of the county. Several of
the converts remained after the mis-
~sionaries left and the citizens began to
threaten them with all sorts of VEN
geance. John w. Metz, one of the
converts, received several threatening
letters ordering him to leave. Metz, in
stead of leaving the neighborhood
rented another farm and was preparing
to move, when on the night before the
house he was to occupy was burned
down, and n letter tackled o the fence
in which the writer's threatened TO burn
every house he tried to occupy. Metz
was stubborn and determined TO remain
and secure another house, which was
also burned the night before he was to
move in it. He failed to get another
house for some time, the owners being
afraid their property would suffer, but
at last he succeeded, and was prepar-
ing to move again when that, too, was
burned, making in all three houses
within a few weeks. The officers APP
pear TO have no clue TO the perpetra-
tors, who now threaten Metz with death
if he does not leave. There were a
number of alleged Mormon converts in
the neighborhood, but they have all
been frightened of or ran out Of the
comfy. There does not appear to be a
disposition to run down the perpetra-
tors OF these outrages.o
