William II. Crane, the comedian. ar
rived nt the Union Square Hotel on Sun
day morning, and while ne stopped at the
office to get his letters Mrs Crane went
up to the rooms overlooking Union
Square, which he'd been assigned them, in
company with one Of the hall boys. On
opening the door she saw large bird
stending directly il the middle OF the
floor. Her instantaneous conclusion was
that the bird Was stuffed, hut at the same
instant that this conclusion had been
reached she cav the bird move it's head,
which was al the end OF very long neck.
Ibid it move, Christ" she asked, turn
ing to the bell boy.
~ guess it did, num-" was the reply.
Ills it's ii wound up, then2" Mrs.
Crane asked again.

very stolid y.
And alive 1t was, cure enough. II wac
o very lively specimen OF O crane, bird
whose outlines hava been made very
familiar TO the public because of repro
ductive sketches on pitAetio draperies.
When the bird began to aquawk after g
very inharmonious fashion, Mrs. Crane
had II bundled very incontinently out of
the room. After its departure she found
q note on the table. This note was sd-
dressed to the comedian, and was signed

Some time how earnestly Mr.. Crane had

this is one of tho seddest yet sweetest

One of the Men Wanted for the
Cr0nin Murder ian n Wisconsin
PTisDn.
DoDGEyILLE, Wis, Dec. 12.--Dsvelop-
ments yesterday seem to leave no doubt
that Oooney, ''the Fox, one OF the men
wanted for the Oronin murder, is now in
iai in this city. The man was captured
here by the sheriff about o meath ago,
on suspicion of burglary, and resisted
arrest, displaying a revolver. Ea refused
10 give any account OF himself, saying
they could call him John cones, and he
was aentenced to four months for carry
ing concealed weapons.
The prisoner is u middle,nged man, ep-
parently intelligent and remarkable
reader OF human nature. His habit of
concealing himself in the cell when any
one entered tbs Jail aroused suspicion,
and his determination to conceal his
identity caused the sheriff to send to Obi
csgo for the photograph OF Coonsy. Tue
picture came aud was shown to him and
he said without single moments
thought, "That 10 Oooney."
He says il he has to 60 to Chicago he
wants the sheriff here to take him. lie
is smooth-shaven now and the contour of
his lower lip, the shape and appearances
Of his head and eyes, are exactly Ike the
picture. Since he saw the picture OF
Oooney and knows that he is supposed Of
being the man, he seems to yield to that
conclusion and has ceased his efforts at
concsalment. Tae sheriff is in GORE
spondence with the Chicago authorities.

after midnight, and verdict rendered
that death was caused ia each case by
suifocation in q jam resulting from q
panic prsoipitsted by false alarm OF

insufficient number Of exits, and the mar

ia entirely unsafe for any public gather

proper measures 10 prevent any public

will be buried tomorrow.
