The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1889-07-17

THE democratic papers are now after
Pension Commissioner Tanner in full
cry, and if their assertions are worthy
of credit his resignation will be asked
for at an early day. Because, forsooth,
Mr.. Tanners Interpretation of the pen
sion laws is from the standpoint Of
fair-minded friend of the soldier and
and the soldiers widow and orphans,
the democrats insist that he is a howl
ing failure. But the probabilities are
that they are only in the beginning of
their SORROWS, for, if we read Alright the
signs of the times, the Fifty-tirst con
gress will give them some pension leg
islation compared with which Tanners
rulings will be orthodox democracy.

Reported.
HARRISBURG, PA, Feb. 11.-Superin-
tendent Higbee of the states orphan
school has received an official report of
the condition of the boys at the McAllis-
terville soldiers orphans school. DIR.

mitted the report, describes the pecu-
llarities of the disease with which
the pupils are afflicted and
adds that mental disturbance was
the only symptom. There was no phys
zeal ailments and there are but three
cases in school. There is ITO discrimina-
ton as to age, temperament or condition
of health. The physician says: ''There
are two cases which show symptoms
of cholera or st. Vitus dance, yet
these have had no mental disturb
anee. No girls are affected. The trou-
BILE is nervous affection resembling in
some respects chorea. Cause cannot be
arrived at, as the sanitary condition of
the school is as good as 1t ever has been,
and studies of the whole school have been
relaxed since the outbreak of fever we
had in the fall. From present indica-
tions [ do not think the trouble will be of
long duration.

The Litigant in the MeLennan County Land
Contest, Passes Away
Special to the Gazette.
GALVESTON, TEX, Feb. 11.-Judge
Simon Mussina died this evening at st.
Mary's infirmary, after an illness of ten
days, in his eighty fourth year. He was
a native of Philadelphia and emigrated to
Texas in 1886, shortly after she had
achieved her independence In 1897 he
located at Matagorda and published
paper which supported Hous-
toms administration. Upon the
cessation of hostilities between
the United States and Mexico, he re-
moved TO Brownsville and began the pub
LEGATION of paper there. For the past
forty years of his life he has been en-
gagged in an expensive litigation for the
recovery of eleven leagues of land located
IN McLennan county, which was granted
to Tomas De lie Vega by the Mexican
government while Texas was Mexican
province. This grant now contains a
population of over 10 900 people and is of
great value The litigation has occupied
the attention of all the courts, both
Federal and state, besides the attention of
congress in the effort to impeach Judge
John c. Watson, Unized States judge of
this district before the civil war and upon
which Houston delivered a remarkable
speech in the senate while a member of
that body The war put an end
TO the impeachment proceedings and
to the litigation for while.
However, as soon as peace was declared
Judge Mussina had the case reinstated
and has been pushing It with varying sue
cess ever since. Once in afiuent ciTcum-
stances he impoverished himself in pro-
longed litigation and will receive sepul-
ture at the hands of friends. AS a man,
he was remarkable for the vigor and
brilliancy of his intellect, his persistency
of purpose and kindly nature.

Wife Murderer.
LONDON, Feb. IA dispatch from
Dundee says the murderer of the woman
whose mutilated remains were found in a
chest there to-day IS W. H. Bury, nus
band of the woman Bury was resi-
dent of Whiteehapel, London, and his
antecedents, which have been traced,
suggest that he Is probably Jack the
Ripper and that he is subject to fits of an
unconscious murder mania. a post NOR
tenn examination held on the body of the
Dundee victim proved the woman had
first been strangIed and her body had
been mutilated, the abdomen being
ripped open and the legs and arms
twisted and broken. Bury says he left
Whitechapel three weeks ago. He refuses
TO say why he left Whitechapel and ac
knowledges that he had no business re-
quiIing his attention in Dundee. He
saws he and his wife drank heavily
last night before retiring and that
he does not know how he got To bed.
Upon awakening, he says, he found his
wife lying upon the floor with a rope
around her neck. Actuated by sudden
impulse for which he cannot account, he
seized knife and slashed the body.
Upon reason returning he became
alarmed and hastily crushed tine body into
the chest in which it was found, thinking
to make his escape He found, how
ever, that he could not leave his wife 5
remains, and he finally decided to in
form the police.
The theory of the police officials is that
Bury IS wife knew of the facts connecting
him with the East End atrocities, and
that she took him to Dundee in the hope
of preventing recurrence of the crimes.

i Se,r Tria1 Granted.

ATLANTA, GA, Feb. 1.-THE supreme
court to-day granted new trial to Tom
Voolfolk, convicted of the murder of his
father, step-mother and six brothers and
sisters. The scene of the crime was near
Macon, and Voolfolk was branded as the
most notable criminal of modern times.
The ground on which the new trial
was granted is alleged error of
the court below in the admission
of hearsay testimony. Justice Simmons
who delivered the, decision referred to the
demonstration in the courtroom at
Macon during the trial of the case when
the crowd cried: 'sHang him, hang
him. y The justice also censured the
court below for not taking summary
means for the punishment of those who
raised the cries.
