The Body Of q Well Dressed Jewess
Found In q New York Cellar.
New York. Specialize partly de-
composed body of q well dressed woman
about twenty-five years old was found to-day
in the cellar of No. 8 Eldridge street. The
head was cut and bruised and tied up in q
cloth. A pair of gold rings was in the
ears. The murder was probably committed
some time ago. The body has been pre-
vented from decay by freezing. The whole
body was terribly bruised, as ii by kicks.
The nose and jaw are broken and the skull
fractured. Shreads of human skin
clinging to the finger nails in
dictate that the woman fought
hard for her life. The beginning Of a letter
was found in the woman's pocket. It con-
tanned the words February 16, 1890. My
dear Fred.p This was written in Hebrew.
The remainder Of the letter had been torn
of. The upper part Of the house was some
time ago occupied by Hebrew school. The
janitor was Isaac Jacobs, the man who, on
Feb. 16, shot and killed Hermann Rogo-
zinski, badly wounded Mrs. R~ogozinski,
shot at their son, and finally committed
suicide. Sacobs had a very bad reputation
in the neighborhood, and was said to have
had trouble with several women. The po-
lice think he was the murderer.

During the early days of the session Of the
Legislature Hess became q fr~equenter OF one,
of the houses Of iIl-fame on Missouri ave-
nue., and became enamorcd of one Of the
inmates. Hess went to the place night
after night, and even in the afternoon,
sometimes, when the roll was called, Hess
would be away in the company of the
.sanlsel of easy virtue. The girl is known
as frankie, and described as being any
thing but q beauty, being cross-eyed

kind on account Of her intelligence and
agreeable disposition and yivacious nature.

Wild and in a drunken frenzy took poison.
He was in q room at the Locke hotel, where
an intimate friend discovered his condition.

worked all night over the sick man, and

An Aggravation.

Charles R. Thorne, the elder, was
always a great traveller, and in their
early days his. three boys Travelled
with him. The family went all over
the world. Once they were coming
to America from China on q Pacific
Mail steamer, and the ice on board
ship practically gave out. What
could be saved was carefully put
aside for the sick people aboard and
the well passengers were compelled to
drink the brackish. warm water on
hand. Any one of them would have
given $40 for a swig of cold water.
One night when the cabin was full
Charlie Thorne left his ~stateroom
with covered tin pail. Pretty soon
he walked back through the cabin:
He had filed his pail with the warm
water, put tumbler inside and COW
cred it up The rafting of the tum-
bier suggested ice, and the parched
tongue of the passengers hung out
further than ever at the sound.
"Where did you get the ice?" asked
aparticularly miserable party. "It's
for q sick friend of NINE" he said,
and he disappeared in his stateroom.
During the evening he made four Of
these trips through the crowded cab
in, and when he finally quit che de-
ception he had made at least twenty
men willing to commit murder for 8
glass Of water.-Chicago Herald.

The Perrin trial wa resumed to-day
with Perrin still on the stand. "A good bit
Of testimony was given that Is familiar to
the public. The first thing that Is Of im-
poftance was when Perrin testified that
since July, 1881, the statements to the state
treasurer and to the public had been raised
by $4,000 by Reynolds to increase the
volume OF business both ways. The
defense then attempted to show up
the character Of Reynolds; that he was in
the habit Of letting lewd women In the
bank after hours and keeping them there
over night, but the Judge decided the evil
dence was immatcrial. Perrin stated on
cross-examination that he had met Good
land at Eagle river or Watersmeet as Good
land claimed he had. Perrin showed how
his account stood all the time he was in the
bank. The prize fight deal was brought up,
but nothing could be got out of

whereabouts on the night Of
Sept. 20 and gave the names of several par
ties who were accustomed to accompany
him there. Said he had a box at the Alca-
Ear and was there when Reynolds came in

said she saw him about 10 o'clock at the en-

Ceiver.
WASHINGTON. Special Telegram,
Representative Wilson to-day received q
letter from Assistant Commissioners Stone,
of the general land Office, in relation to the
final proof Of John T. Naff for land inetha
Spokane Falls, Wash, district. Naff made
proof two years ago before a clerk of court
and transmitted his papers and $500 for
payment Of the land to M. G. Barney, then
The money was never turned over
to the government, and Naff never got his
receipt. Barney became q defaulter and
was removed. Naf's papers remained in
the Spokane Falls land Office. The assistant
commissioner says he will have an examine
ton made Of Naf's case, and if his proof
is sufficient direct patent to issue. He
holds that although the government has not
received the money for the land, Barney
was q duly authorized agent of the govern
ment and the settler must not suffer by fanlt
OF the governments agent. The govern
ment must proceed against Barney's bonds
men to recover. 1t will be the first case on
record where patent will issue before the
money is turned over to the government.
Philones McDougall's claim is in the same
condition as Naff's and will receive the same
action. Paul d. Henry Of Seattle, WASH,
Is in Washington on business before the
land Office. He represents parties who have
offered filings on certain lands in Washing
ton which have been denied by the general
land office and the case is now before the
secretary Of the interior.

Modern Babylon.

1t is usual for travellers to dwell on
the utter desolation of Babylon,
and to paint it's site as q strip Of
desert especially woe-begone and I'M
fertile. But the gentlemen who
dwell upon this aspect of the place
could not have seen itin early spring.
The date groves and gardens along
the Euphrates are then things Of
beauty in their fresh spring verdure,
and the plain itself is laid down with
crops. Irrigation canals cross it
here and there, and give trouble to
the horsemen. No grass grows up
on the mounds, and there are patches
of the level white with the inter
which is to be found here as in other
parts of Mesopotamia; but the sui.
face OF the soil is on the whole green
and pleasant to the eye. The glad
waters of the river flow in the bright
morning sunshine with palm and
mulberry hanging over it's banks,
drinking in sap and life.
The great city which counted it's
population by millions and filed
the world with a renown not yet for
gotten, has disappeared under the
dust of twenty centuries; but nature
is as fresh and iocund as when Baby
Ion was still unbuilt. Birds sing
overhead in the pleasant spring air;
butterflies futter about in search of
flowers; balmy odors regale the
sense. 1t is therefore difficult to feel
as one perhaps ought for a great
capital which once numbered the
ground. Nature does not mourn
for it, and it is hard to be sad at the
bidding Of sentiment when bright
spring hides itsgrayes.-Noah's Sun

row was brought about by the treas
nrer OF the plantation, who put on
loo much STYLE to suit the people, and
who was overload oflegal circumlocu-
lion. One Of the four voters states
the ease as follows:
AT our last election, In March,
each man voted for himself, and on
the sixth ballot q gentleman OF the
same name as the late treasurer,
being in a hurry to get in his vote,
neglected to put in q distinguishing
initial letter, thus giving his oppo-
nent two votes and the election. The
man thus accideutly elected has never
given satisfaction, however. He has
used too much red tape about his
office, refusing to pay q boy 10 cents
bounty on a crow because he didn't
kill ten at one shot.
"Wehave been waiting q long time
for an opportunity to GUST him from
his Office, and a, few days ago it came.
His boy, alad Of 10 years, set a mink
trap on Bear Pond brook. and this
was more than we could stand. 1t

treasurer and gave him his choice OF
resigning or being excomnpunicated.
He promptly resigned, and turned

a new treasurer, and this time a good,

about him, was unanimously elected.
1t had been agreed in caucus before
hand that the lucky individual, who.
everi it might be, should give each vo.

the new treasurer stood up to his
bargain like q little man. He doesn't
use the weed himself, so the corrup-
ton found was limited to Is cents.

to put on too many airs, the meeting
