STRANGE CURIOSITY.
Martin Burke's Memorable Trip
to Chicago.

Chicago, August 5.-A special from
Fargo, Oak, says: Martin Burke will
probably never forget his trip through
Manitoba and Dakota. Atevcry station
where the train stopped, there was a
crowd waiting to catch glimpse of him.
At Grafton there were at least three hun
drcd men, most of them apparently Irish
men, who boarded the sleeper and de-
mandcd admittance. Many were persist
cnt in their demand to get into the car,
telling Lieutenant Ross that if they could
catch glimpse of the prisoner they
would kill him with as little hcstancy as
they would a rat.
"pr. Cronin" said one of them was a
cousin of mine, and would avcnge his
death if could only get IA chance" AS
he spoke, he drew Il revolver from his
pocket, and pcercd into the smokingcom-
partmcnt of the car where Burke was
with two officers; but before he had
time to distinguish faces, Lieutenant
Ross hustled him off the platform, and
his place was taken by a curious Dako-
tan. Burke heard the strangers dcnun-
citation and threats, but he was as cool
as it he had been safe behind the bars of
sheriff MatsOn's jail.
Il might as well I've shot in Dakota as
to he shot in Chicago" he said, when he
heard the threats. notwithstanding
this he was, it is asserted, badly fright
Cncd.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, August 5.-Burkc,
the Crunin, suspect, arrived at this city
in charge of Chief Hubbard, OF Chicago,
at Goo Il. M, to-day. After the rest of
the passengers had alightcd the train
was run back into the yard, and the
Burke party quietly transferred to a
Milwaukee car, and attached to the Mil
waukcc train which pulled out at 7,15
Il. III. Burke was very carefully guarded
and no one was permitted to interview,
or even sec him. The report that he was
chained to the floor of the caris generally
regarded as a canard.

tlcman, and an electrical expert with but
few equals.
The new superintendent, Mr.. John Z.
Arthur, is gentleman well known in
this city, and TIE CITIZEN congrHtulatcS
him upon his election by the board OF di-
rcctors to the office made vacant by Capt.
Barnard's resignation. Under Mr..
Arthur's supcrintcndcncy the railway

LIVERPOOL, August Sat the trial of
Mrs. Maybrick for the murder of her hus-
band to-day, the examination of wit
ncSScs tor the defence was continued.
DR.. MacNamara, cx-President ofthe Irish
College of Surgeons, testified that in his
opinion Maybrick' S death was due to
gaStrO-cntcritis and not to arsenic. DR..
Paul, psychological examiner in the Veto
ria University, declared that il would take
months to eliminate arsenic from the sys-
tenn il it were taken over twice. He also
thought the symptoms in the case of May
brick accorded with those of gastro-en-
tcrits. A chemist testified that ladies
often purchased fly papers for use as a
cosmetic. hair dresser said that ar
scnic was frequently used by ladies to
improve the complexion.
Mr.. Poole, cx-mayor of Liverpool, said
that in March last, Maybrick had told him
that he took poisonous medicines habit
uaIly. This concluded the evidence, and
Mrs. MaybriCk then read her statement
In this she explained the presence of fly
papers in the house by saying that she
had bought them for use as cosmetics.
For many years she had used cosmetic
prescribed by DR.. Grigg, of Brooklyn,
which contained arsenic. She had his
last prescription, and wishing to make
a substitute had soaked the fly papers in
cldcr-llOwcr water and Lavender water,
and had covered the vessel holding the
mixture with plate and towel to cX-
cIudc air. Continuing, Mrs. Maybrick
said, con the night of May -, after the
nurse in attendance upon my husband
had given him some meat juice, went
and sat by his bed. He complained of
being very sick and depressed, and i'm
plOrcd me to give him a powder. Earlier
in the day he made similar request, and
had declined to administer the powder.
But that evening was Ovcrwrought,
terribly anxious, and miScrably unhappy.
His distress unncrvcd me; and aS he said
the powder was harmless, and | could
put il in hlS food, ! consented to mix ii
with some meat Juice which | gave to
him. After taking it, the deceased fell
asleep and appeared better on weakening
was not anxious to administer the
powder. Afterwards placed the bottle
containing the meat Juice on a wash
stand where it remained until Michael
Maybrick, my brothcr-in-law, took pos
session of it. The day before my hus-
band died, made full confession to
him of the fearful wrong had done him,
and received forgiveness" This state
mcnt caused a sensation in the court
room.

A Young Lady and Her Escort
Killed by Lightning.

News reached the city yesterday of the
horrible death Of Miss Addic A. Reid and
Mr.. J. A. Trolinger Sunday evening, at
Catawba, station on the Western
North Carolina railroad, midway be
tween Newton and Statcsvillc. The par
tiCuarS of the affair AZ nearly rs could
be asccrtained, are as follows: Mr..
Trolingcr had accompanied Miss Reid to
her home from church, and was seated iii
the parlOr engaged i'll conversation with
her when storm came up, accompanied
by vivid flashes of lightning and loud
pcals of thunder, rapidly increasing i'll
sharpness and frequency While the
storm was raging at its height, flash
of lightning struck the house, tore away
the chimney and instantly killed the lady
and her escort. Miss Reds clothing
caught on fire and in the attempt to ex-
tinguiSh the flames, Mr.. Jones, who
had rushed into the parlor almost imme-
diatcIy after the flash, was severely
burned about the head and arms. The
unfortunate and lamcntablc occurrence
has cast quite Il shadow over the COM
munity in which the victims of elemental
fury were such prominent and highly
respected members. The remains of Miss
Reid and Mr. Trollngcr will be INFERRED

SAN Francisco, August 5.-A special
from Spokane Falls to the Examiner
says: A fire broke out in lodginghouse
on Railroad avenue at 5 o'clock ycster-
day afternoon, and is rapidly spreading
and now burning fcrcely. The fire seems
to be hevond control of the frcmen and
it is thought the entire business portion
OF the city will be burned. Already two
blocks Of business houses have been de-
strOycd.
PORTLAND, Oregon, August 5.-All con-
ncction with Spokane Falls was lost at
I o'clock last night All that is known
is that the Northern Pacific depot and
two blocks north had then burned, and
the Pacific hotel and another block were
in flames. The vino was tanning the
fire towards the business portion of the
city. Inquiries for information are com
ing from all directions. Everything is
being done that is possible towards get
ting connection.
HELENA, Mont, August Slater i'll
formation showed that forty business
blocks had fallen a prey to the flames.
1t was definitely ascertaincd that the
Northern Pacific depot and all the pub
lie buildings in the city were carried
away in the general havoc. The first
estimate received, placed the loss at $50, =
600, 900. Spokane was one of the most
prominent of the many new cities in the
infant State of Washington, situated on
The line of the Northern Pacific railroad,
close to the Occur dc Alcnc mining region.

public cdiliccS nad also been recently

The business district of Spokane was in
a strip between the Northern Pacific
railroad track and Spokane river. This
strip was five squares across, and cX-

from S25,OOO to $l25,OOO. Ten bank

the district described. The estimate of a
loss of $50, 900 600 is believed here to be

THE Abbey lNN, |
Mclrosc, July %, 1889. !

NlClIOSC, july -, lNNJ.
We mentioned yesterday some of the
creature comforts OF Scotland which
struck us with peculiar force, and now
must note another, although we fear it
will secure us the criticism of some good
friends at home, among them our cs-
tccmcd brother Rankin, but we are too
near to dear Jennie to hesitate to speak
the truth, and say that VIC have exceed
ingIv enjoyed the Scotch whiskcy, and
the way in which it is served.
After walking, riding, sight seeing,
eating, travelling and siXpcnCing steadily
from ) Il. M, we thought we felt the
need of a quoting nightcap at midnight
and upon asking our landlady if we
could have a drop of whiskcy, she of
course said first, Beg PARDON" which
they all say as a formula to secure The
pleasure of Il repetition of our dulcct
tones, which being accomplished to our
satisfaction, we are not shown to any
bar with men drinking and treating all
around us. AS far as we have seen such
Il thing is unknown; but she asks, will
YOU have it in the drawing room or in
your chamber and on our reply, "Marv
take the gentleman a glass of whiskcy,' -
and Il sweet little laSsic, with most be
witching cap oflacc, brings to our door
on silver waiter an exquisite little dc
cantcr holding lust enough, not drop
more, a tumblcr and pitcher of water
and this is the way we Scotch take
ours.
Let us assure YOU, however, that it
was not the effect of this drink that
caused us to intimate, as our last letter
did, that the tones of the Abbey bell
reached Edinburgh. A part of that cpis-
tie was written as we walked its streets,
and part ON the rough and jolting train
which brought us here, which accounts
for its rurnbling character. No, the effect
OF thy Scotch drink on us is undcniably
good, and we will hold in still higher cS-
teen our relative who used to prepare
for st. Andrews day bv ordering a good
supply of "Rcal old Monongahcla Scotch
whiskcv," only we will consent to leave
out the Monongahcli
A glance at Yesterdays manuscript rC-
minds us that we arc inviting YOU to en-
ter with us the good castle of Edinburgh,
across its old draw-bridgc, and through
the portals where we touch the very
hinges which supported its mighty gates,
and look up into the dark slit, into
which the pondcruus portcullis was
drawn, in readiness to drop at mo-
mcnt's warning.
Over thci entrance we notice the Ma
tional Arms, apparently very ancient
and two sleeping hounds, the emblem of
the Marquis of Gordon, who was COVER
nor of the castle in 16SS, and in passing
