A BABE IN THE WOODS.
The Almost Miraculous Rescue of Missing
Child.

Child.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.J
NEW HAVEN, June 9.-An extraordinary
case of babes in the woods is reported from the
charcoal district on Salisbury mountain, near
Jeails village. Four miles from the settlement,
in the thickest of the mountain woods, is an
encampment of charcoal burners, among them
bein,. Andrew Fowler. On Thursday two little
children of Fowlers wandered from the pater-
nal hut The oldest one was readily found,
but the other, child of years,
became frightened and strayed so far away as
to become lost All attempts to discover it
were futile, and when the storm of Friday and
Saturday set in it was not doubted that the
little one would die from exposure. The ex-
citement among the farmers became intense
and a searching party was organized, compTis-
ing 1S5 men, who, with flaming torches and
lanterns, secured the woods for miles around
1t was not until o'clock on Saturday after
noon that their search was rewarded. Then
the child was found in secluded spot in a
messy glen, where it had fallen. The little
thing was with out stockings, shoes or hat and
had been out in the woods for three DAYS and
two nights, crawling here and there, without
any protection from the pitiless storm which
ragged almost necessarily.
Strange to say, the child was apparently un-
harmed and did not appear TO be much the
worse from its thrilling and hazardous adven-
ture. During the search number of men be.
came lost in the forest and it was some time
before all were accounted for by rollcall. The
hardy fellows then ranged themselves in line
and such was the desire to see the tough little
specimen of humanity that had suffered so
many hardships that the child after being fed.
was wrapped in blanket and passed along the
line to be looked at 1t was greeted with
hearty cheers.

SIOUX SLOW TO SIGN.
They Hesitate Before Opening Their Res.
ervations to White Settlers.

ROSEBUD AGENCY, OAK, June 9.-The
Sioux Commissioners have rested to-day,
but feel very much encouraged over the re-
suit Of Yesterdays work, and are hopeful
that by Tuesday night or Wednesday, at
least, they will have the required 1,O5O
voters necessary to make a majority of
the Indians at the agency. The redskins have
spent the day discussing the provisions of the
bill, and it Is evident that those in favor of
signing are doing good work among their more
obstinate brethren. The breeds are nearly
all favorable to the bill and desire to dispose of
the lands asked therein and settle
down and get the benefit of the
very liberal provision made for them
by Congress- In a speech at the Council
last night halfbreed told the Indians that
thev were too slow and should make up their
minds at once. This aroused the ire of the red
men, who object to be hurried, and there were
low cries of Kill him." xiii him." For
time it looked as if violence would be at
tempted, but order was finally restored.
Some of the Indians want the commissioners
TO call grand council of all the Indians on the
various reservations, and say they could then
all counsel together and make up their minds.
This the commissioners explained, they could
not do, as they were under orders to visit each
agency, and must obey the Great Fathers
word. So far 453 signatures have been secured,
not quite half enough at this agency. A fail
ure here means failure at the other agencies,
and the commission will use every art of
suasion known to induce the Indians to sign.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
NEW YORK, June 9.-Florence Nc
Carthy, of 216 West Twenty-seventh street,
who works in Carey s. Moons steel factory,
received S3S On May % as his fortnight's wages.
He was paid with aS20note, "a $40 note and three
silver dollars. When Florence reached home
he gave his aged mother $40 note. She
straightway went to Mrs, Catharine O'Dea, who
keeps grocery at 2l9 in the same street,
where Mrs. Mccarthy has been in the habit of
running up fortnightly bills. Mrs. Mccarthy
paid her bill, which amounted to a little over
Sc and received something more than Sl3 in
change. On Friday afternoon, when the
bakers man came to collect his bill from Mrs
O'Dea, she handed him $40 note; he handed
back the note, laughing, and asked her if she
expected him to turn in a Confederate note to
his employers.
Mrs. O'Dea said that this was the note that
she had got from Mrs. Mccarthy. She sent her
son with the note to Mrs. Mccarthy. Mrs Nc
Carthy had not noticed the note particularly
She knew nothing about Confederate money
She thought that very likely it was this
Confederate note that she had given to Mrs.
O'Dea, but Florence said that he knew better
He declared that the bill he had given his
mother was the one he had received from his
employer and was genuine, and he advised
Patrick not to try to bluff him.

POISONED WATER.

One of the leading surgeons in the Army,
made the following characteristic remarki
"Water kills more soldiers than bullets" His
meaning was, that soldiers who drank impure
water, died by disease in greater numbers than
those killed by bullets. The surgeon was right.
Impure water. especially at this season. is a ter
rible cause of sickness and death. But the pub
lie say, what shall we do? There is but one sen.
sible thing to do, and that is to purify the
water by mixing it with something that de-
stroys all poison or disease-breeding germs, and
nothing does this like pure whiskey. But it
may be asked, where can / obtain pure
whiskey? Professor Henry A. Mott says the
purity of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is abso-
lutte, and should commend it to the highest
public favor" There are hundreds of families
that are drinking water constantly, and are
kept in perfect health by simply mixing little
of Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey in each glass they
drink. 1t is simple and sure preventive OF
Summer diseases and germ poisons, and is IN
dorsed by the best people in the land.

reason to call Kelly up to the stand and re-
marked:

must is pretty strong. You are an old horse-
man yourself and you come down and win with
the colt; cannot he has not been worked SUI
ficienr."
The "Geeser's invitation was not accepted,
but it quieted Mr.. Martin.
Mr.. Temple also stated that "Uncle" John E.
Turner intends to take charge of stable Of
runners next fall What he intends to do with
his trOtting stable is not definitely known. Mr.,
Temple further gave information to the effect
that John Murphy, the famous driver, is dying,
and is not expected to live many days. Murphy
has had a long and honorable career. He was
never known to throw race and was Mr.. Bon
ner's private driver.

the wall Chippeway fell, throwing his rider
who, however, regained his seat. On the third
round Chippeway took the lead, but he was un-
able to maintain it, and retired.
On the last round Primaute and Royal Meath
fell, and Lord Chatham, who was in front, took
the wrong course, thus spelling his chance of

A SENSATIONAL SUIT,
Ex-senator snbIn Wants n Divorce From
His Wife on the Charge of Drunken-
ness-The Case Begun in a
Minnesota Court-Its
Probable Re-

suit.
ST. PAUL, June "a divorce case has
been begun in the district courtof Washing
ton county of the most sensational charac-
ter, both on account Of the national prom
inence OF the parties and from the shocking
facts which surround the proceedings in
whispers. This isno less than suit brought
by ex-senator D. M. Sabin against his wife,
The summons was served personally upon
Mrs. Sabin at Flushing, Long Island.
something over week ago, but the COM
plant has not yet been filed in court.
The charge made in the complaint is that
of habitual drunkenness, an allegation
which in itself will be most shocking to the
society OF Washington and other cities
where Mrs. Sabin has long been shining
light. 1t is asserted that Mrs. Sabin had
fo- some time previous to her marriage been
an invalid, and during that time became
addicted to the use of morphine. The habit,
it is claimed, has been INDUCED in to a
greater of less extent ever since, and in
later years she has added to it the
use of intoxicating liquors. 1t is
stated that during the absence
from home of Mr.. Sabin she occasionally
lndulged in liquors and drugs to excess.
At the close of Mr. Sabin's Senatorial ca
reer Mrs. Sabin was placed, at her own re-
quest, in the Asylum for Inebriates at
Flushing, yhere she is at the present time.
Socially, Mrs. Sabin is most fascinating
lady, and during Mr.. Sabin's Senatorial
career in Washington she gave weekly re-
ceptions, which were among the most popu-
lar given by any lady in that city, and
attended by the most distinguished people.
1t is doubtful whether the fault of which
she is charged in the complaint ever became
apparent to any of her Washington guests,
or came to the knowledge of her friends
there. Mr.. and Mrs. Sabin have no chill
dren of their own. The fact that suit is
commenced will be news to all, J. N.
Searles, of Saltwater, is Mr.. Sabin's attor-
ney. What course Mrs. Sabin will pursue
is not yet known, but it is believed she will
not resist the suit. She has still many
warm friends, and will be the subject Of
wide sympathy. The ex-senator also has
the sympathy of all who know him in this
most unfortunate affair.

-JoHNsTowN, June 9.-The suicide to-day Of

Private Young was subject to fits OF mental
alteration.
"Last fall, about apple-picking time" said
Mr.. Summel "he became possessed OF the
idea that there was man in the woods who in
tended to shoot him. To-day he attended the
religious service and when he came back he
said some one was going to hang him. He
stood on the bank there until after the steeple
of the church had been blown down. Five
minutes later we heard shot in his tent, just
back of Captain Nesbit's, and we found him
dead. The bullet had gone through his head
and out through the roof of the tent. He was
quite cheerful when we left home, and was
very anxious to come. suppose the surround

of the Vamrod. 1t looks as though Young had
put the gun to his head, and used the ramrod
to pull the trigger. for it lay beside him. He
had been complaining of feeling unwell, and
yesterday relieved him of guard duty IN the
afternoon. but learned that he volunteered to
guard the town last night. He had been suf-
fering from constipation, and told him to get
some medicine from the surgeon. 1t was in his
pocket untouched to-day. He had delusion
that he had lost all his friends. His brother
told me how he cured him last fall, and had
