AT A RECENT meeting of the New England
Meteorological Society in Boston there was an
interesting discussion of the characteristics of
the climate of New England. Dr. W. D. Hodges
read a paper concerning the summer tempera-
ture of certain towns on the Massachusetts
coast, embracing line of stations of observa-
ton extending from the New Hanlshire line to
Block Island. The substance of the paper was
| that there is marked difference in the mean
| sout sides of the peninsula. On the northern
side the average summer temperature of the air
| is 69', and that OF the water 70 lower; on the
| south side the average is GO, with the water
| but Il cooler. The fauna and fora of the

states that different condition of affairs pre-

the summer than the more favored places on

MADE MAD BY MISFORTUNE.
Pitiable Plight Of Citizen of St.
IOuiS

ST. LOUIS. Oct. 15.-John Brennan, of
1913 Pennsylvania avenue, is confined in
st. Vincent insane hospital, having been
made maniac by the misfortunes of
his family. His wife suddenly became
insane ten days ago and ran away, talk
ing her seven children. At Wheeling,
w. Va, she leaped from the cars and
ran to the hills. She was afterwards
found, and, with the children, was put
in charge of Mrs. Brennan's mother at
Clarksburg, w. Va. The latter last
night wired Chief Harrington that Mrs.
Brennan and the children were safe,
and that Mrs. Brennan was much I'M
proved mentally, with hopes of recov-
cry. She asked the chief to tell the
news to the distracted husband. Officers
learned from friends, however. that Mr..
Brennan's mind gave way two DAYS
ago. and that he had become a raving
maniac. He had broken up all the fur
nlture In the house. and it took several
men to disarm him and prevent him
from committing suicide or murder.

to the case of Mrs. BrannOn, of that
city,who jumped from a train at Clarks-
burg. this state, one day last week and
took to the woods, enormously states
that the woman has been found. Sew
eral hundred men have been searching
the country about Clarksburg daily
since the occurrence, but are unable
to find the slightest trace of her. The
whole case is shrouded in mystery. A
dispatch was received from st. Louis
signed by the woman's husband, saying
he would come on and take charge of
the seven helpless children that she
left on the train when she made the
mad leap, and the st. Louis dispatch re-
ferred to, saying that Brannon is in
sane. deepens the mystery. The wonl-
ans brother. from near Philadelphia.

THREE LIVES SNUFFED OUT.
Perth Amboy Excited Over a
Double Suicide and Murder

Perth Amboy Excited Over a
Double Suicide and Murder.
PERTH AMBoY, N. j., Oct. 15.-The
residents of Perth Amboy are Mortified
over double suicide, and supposed
murder which occurred here to-day.
For some time past Gader Show
dasch and his wife have
lived most unhappily together,
QuarrelS being frequent on account of,
the husband charging the wife with in
fidelity. The accusation seems to have
been utterly groundless, and Mrs. Show
dash resented it bitterly. Yesterday he
reproached his wife again with her inf
deity, and the quarrel that followed
between them was more than
usually bitter. After Showdash left
his home to go work this morning his
wife soaked the heads of quantity of
matches in water and swallowed the
poisoned liquid. Her means attracted
the attention of the neighbors, and
medical aid was summoned, but all
effort to save the woman's life was UNI
availing, and she died in great agony.
When ShOwdasch reached his house
his wife was dead. Stricken
with remorse at the awful
result of their quarrel, he procured re.
volver and shot and killed himself.
During the excitement produced by the
tragedy the young babe of the couple
was forgotten, but when the people in
the house had recovered from their first
terror the child was sought for. To
their horror it also was found to be
dead. and. although it is not yet known.
positively, it is supposed that the
mother, before she killed herself. adj
ministered some of the poison to her.

A Crazy Chicagoan Creates a SEN
sation on a Thoroughfare.
CHICAGO, Oct. 15.-Last evening as
Michigan avenue was thronged with
people coming from and going to the
Illinois Central trains, man of power
full physique came dashing through the
crowd, hat in hand, his long hair stream
ing in the lake breeze and his eyes glar-
ing. Striking at one and clutching at
another of the passers-by, he almost
cleared the street as he proceeded.
Women and children rushed screaming
into the middle of the street and men
edged away to give him all the room he
wanted. He leaped upon those he met
like an infuriated beast, and after strik-
Ing several persons he at last came
upon lack Knight. With the ferocity
OF tiger he leaped at Knights
throat, fastening upon his powerful
clutch, drove his fingers through the
skin, Embedding them in the muscles of,
the helpless mans throat. He threw
Knight to the pavement and bounced
upon him. when number of the more
courageous of the spectators came to the
rescue. Four or five officers soon par
ticipated in the fray and at last the
lunatic was got into wagon. which
came from the central station.and taken
to the detention hospital, where he con-
tinued to rave furiOusly all night. From
notebook in his pocket. it was learned
that his mans is John Hedlund, a Swede,
and carpenter by trade. He labors
under the delusion that some one is
after him and he Is bent on killing
everybody.

QUARRELED ON RELIGION.
A Chicago Policeman Fatally Shot
by Brother Officer.

CHICAGO, Oct. Is. - Police Officer
JuDge. of the Stanton avenue station,
was shot and fatally wounded by a
brother officer at o'clock this morning.
1t appears that Junge got into an argu-
ment with Officer Tom Madden about
religion, and Madden accused Junge of
belonging to the organization known as
the American Progressive union, or the
United Order of Deputies. One word
brought On another, until Junge struck
at Madden with his club, when the lat
ter drew his revolver and shot Junge
in the left side, about two inches
above The heart. The injured
man was conveyed to the station
and a physician called, who pro-
nounced his condition as hopeless.
The two men have been enemies for
some time: Several weeks ago Madden
accused Junge of being member of
the Order of Deputies (Which is sup
posed to be an anti-Cathoiic body, and
a wOrdy war enSused. Since then
Junge has sought to get even for the
epithets applied to him by Madden at
time, and has several times reported
him to his superior officer tor eutering
saloons in uniform, contrary to regula-
tions. 1t was one of these reports which
angered him last night, and he went out
i'll search of Junge, with the result al
ready given. After the shooting Mad
den disappeared and has not yet been
arrested.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Is. - Assistant
Secretary Bussey has reversed the ad-
verse action OF the pension Office in the
case of Ira Hollingsworth, late of Com
pany E, 14Sth Indiana volunteers.
1t appears from the record that in June,
1865, as the complainant and several
comrades were OIL their way to creek
to battle, they saw two soldiers in a
quarrel, one having the other down and
pounding INN with rock. The claim
ant interfered, and having separated
them proceeded in his way to the creek.
He had gone but short distance when
the soldier who was the aggressor
threw rock at claimant, striking him
behind the left ear. He was insensible
from the blow from Saturday until the
following Wednesday, and has never
fully recovered from the injury. He
has ever since been a constant sufferer
from dizziness and deafness of the left
ear. The assistant secretary holds that
the injury was received while in line
of duty and is therefore pensionable.

A railroad war can be looked for dur

Shore lines have announced a cut on
east-bound passenger rates. The SEQ
has made an average reduction of $3.50
to a number of Eastern points, owing to
a number of Chicago lines doing bust
ness with scalpers, who sell tickets to
Chicago at 81 reduction. The Western
States Passenger ASSOCIATION have tried
to stop the sale of tickets by brokers,
but with little result. A general cut in
rates will probably be made by the COM
