PARIS, Dec. When the train from
Nice arrived at Touton this morning the
officials of the railway station made dis
covery which created great deal of sensa-
tion. On going 10 the compartment set
apart for ladies, a woman Of about thirty
three Yeas AT age, whose name was subse-
quently found to be Zoe Marquet, was dis
covered in an unconscious state, lying alone
in the carriage, with her mouth gagged by
means of 8 napkin, her hands tied together
with a necktie, and her feet fastened
together by "a leather strap Restoratives
were applied, and she was eventually
brought TO consciousness. In reply to the
question of the authorities, she declared
tnat she was absolutely unable to give any
explanation as to how she came to be IN
such a condition. She stated she left Monte
Carlo by the midnight train for Marseilles,
intending to join her husband. who carried
on the business Of an epOthecary in the
neighboThood of Constantine. When she
entered the train she had the sum of 1000
francs in her pockets. This money
is now missing. She remem-
bered readidg letters aud papers until the
train reached Cannes, and after that she
has no recollection of anything and is I'M
able to offer any explanation as to how she
became unconscious. The police authorities
have taken the matter in hand and have
opened an inquiry with view to discover
ing whether hypnotism has been practiced
on her and robbery committed during the
time she was in state of Inconsistencies.

brides troussezu had been purchased, the
invitations to the wedding had been issued,
and the many friends OF the couple antici-
pated the coming event with all the ln-
terest young people feel in such occasions.
A day or two before the banns were to be
published the third and last time Pfeiffer
was missing, and at length the bride lect
betrothed had fed from her.
She became Ill and kept her bed for
several weeks. The affair was q nine days

ton. Young Pfeiffer went from Cleveland
to Chicago, where he obtained a situation
as bookkeeper He wrote a letter to Miss
Elwell. and regular correspondence began
between them, the young man making ex
plantations which we're satisfactory 10 her.
Last Sunday the congregation of the Church
Of the Holy Name was electrified TO hear,

tion OF the last banns for PfeifRer and Mis-

SAVED PLUcKY WIFE.

Eighu With a Burglar.

NORFOLK. VA, Dec 4-Surgeon " il!ism
A. Wheeler OF ths United States Marine
Eosoital service, 10 charge Of the marine
hospital, and ars. Wheeler were seriously
sRshed with razor in the hands OF negro
narSisr this evening. DR.. and Mrs.
WhseLer had just finished their
tes and on going into au-
other room found bur'y burglar
eaiHiiy looking through their effects. The
doc made rusl for him and in few
nom ats Goth ere rolling on the floor in a
desl,sraie struggle. DR.. Wheeler ives getting
the best Ct tn burglar, when the Desperate
drew razor and began slashing right and
left with terrible effect.
MRS. WHEELER TO TIE RESCUE.
Piucky Mrs. Wheeler. sesing the danger
III which her husband was placed in the
now unequal hgnt. rushed 10 the rescue,
aau she was so IA target for innumerable
siashes from the desperate burglar. Her
breast, arms and other portions OF her body
we're soon laid open in gaping wounds.
Faint through loss OF blood. and
weakening every moment, she did Not
Sc self-pOSseSSiOn, but rushing to her hus-
bands room secured his pistol and handed
1t TO him with an appeal 10 him to kill the
nan. By this time the negro had thrown
or the doctor and was trying to make his
escape. The doctor took tho pistol a d
tired two shots. one of which, the last, he
thinks, found its man.
THE NEGRO ESCAPES.
The negro, however, made his escape,
and up 20 the present time has not been
cap ured. though the police. who were at
once notified of the dastardly assault, say
that from the description they know him
well, and EXPECT soon TO have rim under
arrest. While the wounds of neither
the doctor or his brave wife are
OF dangerous character, the heavy winter
clothing which the weather of the last few
days has necessitated probably saved their
lives. DR.. Wheeler, indeed, owes his life to
q pockeebook which he had in one of his
trousers pockets. The negro made des-
perate lunge at the doctors groin, and if the
pocketbocb, which was of stout leather, had
not interviewed, the razor would have
severed an artery and death would have
resulted in few seconds. The clothing of
both is cut to ribbons. The noise of the
shots attracted the attention of the neigh
borhoUd, and assistance was soon secured,
medical attention summoned and both mad c
as comfortable as possible. The news of
the affair soon spread, aud many friends of
the doctor and his wife fastened to offer as
sistance and sympathy.
