The Pttfful Story of Mrs. Carrie BERG
and Four Children.

Mrs. Carrie Berg, a widow and the mother Of
fouI children one OF whom she buried on FRI
day, was arraigned before Justice Goetting in
the Gates avenue police court Brooklyn, Sat-
urday on . charge of burglary. She keeps Q
little candy and cake store Cd Atlantic avenue
near Morse street and lives in wretched quar-.
tiers in the rear. A year ago her husband com.
mitted suicide because of has inability 10 obtain
work, and since that time the widow has had Q
hard struggle TO support herself and her four
little ones. Two hours before she was arrested
on Friday she followed her child to the grave,
and when she was taken TO the station house
she left the others destitute OF food.
The burglary for which Mrs. Berg was sp-
pretended was committed on MONDAY at the
residence Of Mrs. Barbara Altcnberg 1874 Bar
hey street. During the family's absence from
home the house was entered and some bingham
and dresses and u few pieces of jewelry, valued
IN ali at 80, was taken. The police were mott
lied, and on Friday Patrolman Hardy noticed
q piece OF gingham hanging in Mrs. Bergs win
dow. He entered and had asked only q few
questions when MIRA Berg broke down and
confessed her guilt She was locked up over
night and held for the grand Jury. She told
Justice Goetting that she went to Mira Alten-
berg's on Monday TO collect bill owed 70 her
by Mrs. Altenberg's mother, ana, finding no
one at home, she took what she thought was
worth about the amount of her claim Her
pitiful family history excited the courts COM
passion, but there was nothing to do but 10 hold
her. Friends have agreed 20 care or the nm
fortunate woman's children

TILLMAN FAR AHEAD.
He VIII Have Things All His Own
Way in Wednesd ay's Convention.

Wednesday next the convention called to de-
eide whether the South Carolina state officers
will be nominated by primary or convention
will meet in Columbia A dispatch from that
city says: The bitter canvass has been made ON
this issue. The strsightouts have contested
every inch Of ground, and the result ID that
thirty out Of thirty-four coundes will send Till
man delegates pledged against the primary.
1t is the cleanest sweep ever made where there
has been any opposition. The action of this
body. however, is watched with the deepest
interest. 1t Is probable that the TiIlman fac
ton, having everything in their own hands,
will nominate their ticket and save themselves
the expense of holding another convention.
1t this is done those opposed to Tillmsn will
consider that his faction 10 clearly out of the
democratic party and will act accordingly. In
the face of the apparent overwhelming ma
jority of the Tillman side work is being vigor-
ously pushed by his opponents and very inter-
esting aud important developments are ex-
pected within the next few days The con-
vention will probably be q very stormy one
and may result in trouble. Tllman has prom
ised to appear before the body and ask that
they grant the primary, - the straightouts
urge.

reasons for his vote, in which he says;
Earnestly desiring the object OF this bill,
expected to vote for IL, but upon examination
/ became persuaded that 70 get il that way was
indeed not to get il at all, and, st the same
time, il was TO do irrepsrable injury 10 our

HE ALEXANDRA CESsUs.-There IL q gem
eral dissatisfaction here with the census re-
turns OF the city and an impression that many
persons living within city limits have been
LETT uncounted- There seems 20 be no reason,
however, 10 doubt the approximate accuracy OF
the count. Ii is a fact tina very much of the
Increase OF the city since 1860 has been caused
by the influx of colored people. who came here
as 'contrabands" and were left by the tide OF
war IN Cabins at petersburg" 'Lynchburg"
&c.. as the assemblage OF tenements were
called. Thus in ls1o the census showed total
increase IN Alexandria OF 2.S65, but, in fact,
the white population had decreased 659 while
the colorcd population had increased 3,O2a
Since that period there has been decrease in
the colOred population and an increase in
white, as shown by the successive censuses
taken for school purposes. he change in the
wards since the war Is shown in the following

A Paris Anarchist, in His Confession, De-
scribes the Murder.
PARIS, Dec. 13.-The statement OF the
Anarchist Delabruyere that he assisted
Padleski, the supposed murderer OF General
Seliverskoff, to escape, largely engrosses the
attention of both the police and the public.
The project of police and the public prose-
curor held an extended conference to-day as
to the advisability of arresting Delabruyere
until the accuracy Of his story could be
tested.
According to Delabruyere's letter to LIE
Clair. Padleski confessed to him that he
had killed General Seliverskoff on the spur
of ths moment, after he had had a long con-
versation with the General. The General
had trie.i to pump him regarding the ire-
quenters of Bernhoff's house, where Pal
leski was employed, and had concluded bv
proposing that Padleski act as spy. This.
proposition he resented by shooting the
General, and had escaped as his victim fell
on his desk. face downward.
Three nights later woman visited Del
abruyere and implored him to assist Pad
leski in leaving the country. Delabruyere
says be assented, on the ground that it was
a political crime. He relates how he dis
guised the fugitive by changing the color
of his complexion and hair, and afterward
accompanied him to Trieste. Delabruyere
assigns as further motive for his action
that he desired to show that French re-
porters were not behind American and
British newspaper men in journalistic en-
terprise.

Summer Drinks.

The Lancet, alter remarking on the serious
results which the prevalent habits of eating
and drinking have on Europeans resident in
India, shows that highly carbonized ma
terials are very deleterious in hot climates.
The custom of the moguls is referred to as
offering fitting example. Their drinks
consisted in milk, sweetened waters or
sherbets prepared from sub-acid fruits. such
as lemons, tamarinds, pomegranites, etc..
favored with rose or other essences. 1t is
shown that the Oriental races suffer from
few of the diseases which are common to
the copious meat-eGting, wine-drinking
Europeans. For hot day light vegetable
diet is recommended, with a spare quantity
of meat ,ood and an abundance OF cooling,
non-alcohoic drinks. Ice is regarded rs a
necessity, and coffee, tea and cocoa should
take the place of whisky and soda. The
arated waters, prepared from pure and
wholesome ingredients, with the admixture
of pure fruit fla ,orings, are regarded with
favor as summer drinks.
