POOR TERESA HUxFoRD.

without n Homo or Friend She
Ended Her Life.
The death Of unfortunate Teresa Hulk
ford is still the leading topic of discus
sion, but no facts have been discovered
that would lead to the belief that there
was foul play. Nor has anything der
ogotory to the girls character been dis
covered, and the efforts to connect her
name with the orgies reported to have
taken place in Welton's barn, are cruel.
Residents of Cherry street who knew
the Turner family and Miss Huxford de-
clare that the girls demeanor was above
suspicion. She received no male callers,
was not a street walker and was we'll
liked by the neighbors. Alonzo Turner,
her uncle, is known to have accused the
girl Of wrong doings and there is reason
to believe that her life was not happy
one. When Turner left the girl and
went to Brooklyn, she tried to support
herself honestly but met with failure
everywhere.
Young, inexperienced and without
friends, there is scarcely doubt that on
the January day when she left the house
of Mr. Ennis to go she knew not where,
the girl went directly to the pond and
ended her earthly troubles.
Chief Of Police Egan is certain that
the girl was not of the class of street
She had often called at his house and in
all respects was a model of propriety.

found who are dissatisfied. T. O'Leary, Jr.,
one of the managers OF the Democratic cam

famous three Rs speech in favor of James G.
Blaine. that the victory Of Mr.. Gourley was
due to Doodle, Booze and Buns" in the lower
part of the city. and generally due to the per-

mutually discussed the situation, and MIR.

Finn. with his well-known modesty, disclaimed
all credit, saying he was not to be blamed for

worker. To this Mr.. O'Leary responded that
he would have liked few simple workers of
the same kind on the Democratic side of the
issue,
