TIGHTENING THE MOOSE.

Burke. the Cronln Suspect, Identified as
the Man Who Occupied the Carlson Cot
tage, in Which the Doctor Met His
Death.
CHICAGO, Aug. 13-Mr and Mrs. Carlson
were brought 10 the Jail yesterday morning
and conducted 70 the door Of Burke's cell.
When the old couple paused at the cell door
Burke looked inquiringly at them, and II he
felt surprise or any other emotion he did not
manifest IT. The Carlsons took a good look
at the prisoner, neither party TO the identi-
hcation uttering word. The Carlsons were
then taken TO the States Attorneys ofice,
where they both declared positively that
the man whom they had Just seen in the
Jail was Frank Williams,n their tenant Of
last spring.
This identification evideatly settles the
question as TO what part in the murder was
taken by Burke. He was one OF the "Will-
iamses." Pat Cooney was the other, and
these two, with Dan Coughlin, are picked
out by the State as the actual murderers Of

The Two Venerable CisrGymen Who

The Two Venerable Clergymen Who
Quarreled at Chess.
The late Bishop PinlIney, that amiable
Episcopal churchman who was known pret-
ty well over the country, was a most de-
voted and enthusiastic chess-player, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph. He would sit
up all night ct the game II not interrupted.
His reputation for charity and amiability
is well known in church circles. He was
regarded as the most amiable Of men whose
profession is meelinoss. But therewas one
man, o minister Of his own church, with
whom he could not play chess without quar-
reling. Yet this man was one Of the best
chess-players in his diocese, and the rivalry
between them was constantly bringing
them face 10 face across the board. One
night there was an assemblage OF Episcopal
clergy at the Bishops house. Awed by the
presence OF tho Bishop, the younger men
were on their bost behavior, and the even
ing was passing of US monotonously as the
most orthodox could desire. Some ono pro-
posed chess. In few minutes they wero
paired on, the Bishop being pittod against
his chief rival. However enthusiastic the
rest OF the company may have got, they were
mild and polite in tacir disputations out Of
respect for the Bishop.
Presently In one corner Of the room was
heard the Bishops voice:
'You touched IT. sir; you must movep
"But did not" roplisi his opponent
"You did, insisted the Bishop.
II say did notp tt4 Wa
II say you didw ehtt ftftf
81 must emphatically eenyit sir.p
At each contradiction the voices grew
louder. Tho men we-o glarilg at each
other across the squares, and the Bishops
face was red with anger. f
''If, sir, that is the way you play, sir,
Am doner' he cried, and tho chessmen
ratified on the floor. His eccles!astic oppo-
nent gathered them up and put them in the
hre. For few minutes they glEred at
each other, and the clergy assembled looked
on in horror. Suddenly the absurdity Of
the situation struck them both. The Bishop
burst out Laughing a. the childishness Of
their quarrel, and their hands came to.

enough OF the contents exposed to satisfy
US two fellows that it was an exceedingly
handsome night-gown fol lady. The fabric
was very fine, and the lace upon the front
would have made any woman's mouth water
with envy. Our curiosity satiRted. the paper
was readjusted and the package laid back
on the shelf. My clerk was engaged TO be
married, his fancee living down In Indian
