SMALL MUTINY IN JAMAICA.
A Sergeant in the English Army Resists
Arrest and Is Killed.


Arrest and Is Killed.
HALIFAX. n. s., Sept. S.-The sensation
of the hour in military circles mere is the
disclosure of the details of the recent mu-
tiny in the first battalion West India regi-
ment at Jamaica, by which an exhibition
OF want of discipline and decentralization
was made manifest in the regiment. The
facts brought out show that Sergeant
White. with a guard of ten men, had charge
of a fort on Apostles island. and had, it
was complained. insulted the sergeant
major. Being charged with in subordina-
ton, he refused to submit. Captain Nor
ris, with an escort, proceeded to the fort
to capture him, but the men refused to
make the arrest, on the ground that they
were afraid that White. who was armed
with Winchester rife and ffty-six
rounds of ammunition, would shoot
them. Captain Morris passionately
said he would go alone. White refused to
submit and Captain Morris obtained an
other detachment of armed men. who laid
siege to the fort. At dusk large number
of bullets were exchanged, White appar-
emily receiving assistance from the men
under him in the battery, who by this time
would appear to have become open mutt
neers. Corporal Allen, of the party under
Morris, was shot
Finally Sergeant White was killed by
bullet from the rife of Sergeant-Maior
Hodgkinson, the man on whose account
the White trouble originated. The ser
geant having fallen, no further resistance
was made. A court-martiai was held in
the cases of Whites sympathizers, but its
result has not yet transpired. White had
claimed that he had been overworked and
could get no redress.

LONDON, Sept. 5.-Marie Roze. who is
about to sue Harry Mapleson for divorce, is
now in Scotland. Her sister was greatly
shocked when she heard that Maplesoa, in
his letter, had said that he and Marie were
never married, notwithstanding they have
children. Marie's sister says there would
be no trouble in proving that legal mar
riage took place. The sister admitted the
separation between Mapleson and Roze,
which, she said, was due to lapse on
Henry's part which Marie could not over
look, though she had shown spirit of
mercy on previous occasions. She left his
house of her own volition, probably never
to return to it She had put the case in the
hands of her legal advisers, and meant to
appeal to British jury for the relief the
law allows in such cases

A PARIS RACING SCANDAL.
Einstein, Owner of Rhodante Is Unjustly
Punished-A Jockey,s Testimony.

PARIS, Sept. S.-The racing scandal.
which resulted in the disqualification of
the owner of Rhodante, Charles Einstein,
whose colors were the stars and stripes for
two years in France and Belgium, and the
putting on foot for life of Joe Barker, the
crack French steeplechase jockey in Bel
GUM, France and England, warning him
off the turf at all meetings under the
Jockey Club rules, has assumed new
phase.
Barker has made sworn confession and
upon this, an action for libel will be taken
into the courts. In the document Barker
says:

DENEE, THE DEMON.
Famous Seattle Convict Tries to
Break His Neck.
HE USES A ROTTEN ROPE
Taking Advantage of Liberty, While
Sick, He Again Attempts Suicide
He is Undoubtedly Insane.

WALLA WALLA, Sept. S.-David Denee,
the noted convict from Seattle, who has
endeavored to commit suicide ever since
he was incarcerated in the penitentiary,
made another attempt Sunday. but with
out success. About 10 O'Clock Sunday
morning Acting Warden McClurg ordered
that three prisoners who were on the sick
list and needed open air exercise, be al
lowed to walk in the penitentiary yard.
Among the convicts was Denee, who had
so often threatened to take his own life or
that of the guards and prisoners.
After walking about the yard for some
time Denee proceeded to horizontal exer-
cising bar, which had been placed in the
yard for the benefit of the prisoners, and
proceeded to go through the usual evolu-
tons. The guards and prisoners thought
nothing strange of this, as it was the usual
practice.
Suddenly Denee vaulted to the top and
for some fine stood erect upon the bar,
motionless and straight. Then he shot
down feet foremost, throwing his hands
out and away from the bar. There was a
sudden jerking of the body as it hung for a
second between the pole and the round,
and then it fell backward to the ground.
By this time the guards had arrived at
the pole and discovered that Denee had
made another attempt at se.f-destruction.
Around his neck was strip of blanket
twisted into rope, and hanging dangling
from the bar was another piece of the same
kind. The rope was too weak, and the
force of the fall had snapped it asunder
There is little doubt that the force of the
fall would have broken Denee's neck had
the rope held together. As it was he was
not injured, and when questioned was very
reticent and spoke in dazed manner, as
if he had not figured on making mistake
this time. Two blue streaks on each side
of his neck are left to tell the tale of his
misadventure.
From the penitentiary physician your
correspondent learns that Denee is afflicted
with acute typhoid fever, and much sick
ness has caused dementia. A day or two
since medicine was prescribed for him, but
instead of taking dose of the fluid as di-
rected, Denee swallowed the whole bottle,
which act would have resulted in death had
not the warden forced down his throat a
liberal quantity of salt and water. There
is very little doubt that Denee is insane
This seems to be the opinion of several of
the attendants at the penitentiary who
have watched his actions closely. He is
determined upon suicide, and this is the
third or fourth attempt that he has made
since his incarceration, besides several
times trying to murder his guards.

twenty-five flyers in the paddocks, and the

THE NATIVE SONS AND DAUGHTERS.

San Francisco Streets Crowded With
Visitors-The Second Day.
SAN FRANCISCO. Sept. s.-The second day
of the celebration of the Native Sons
opened duly enough above, but the cele-
brants all turned out at an early hour and
the streets were crowded. The arch across
Market street had at last been completed.
Most of the retail stores were thronged all
day, and all sorts of vehicles were to be
seen on the avenue leading to the principal
pleasure resorts and drives. Golden Gate
park was crowded with turnouts, gaily
decorated, and the bride paths swarmed
with foot passengers.
* The headquarters at the Baldwin pre-
sented an animated sight, although there
were hundreds of members out on the bay
to witness the aquatic sports. A number
OF stragglers from interior parlors arrived
and number of parlors also put IN an ap-
pearance. The Native Daughters had a
busy time at their headquarters. Daugh-
tiers from the interior arrived in large num-
bers during the day, and were taken in by
competent managers.
Outside their headquarters the boys
were busy entertaining the parlors and
providing for the wants of their guests,
and had all they could attend to.

head marched through the streets and

Collapse of California Athletic Club.
San Francisco Alta.

The California Athletic Club. which had
It's origin in disreputable dive on Dupont
street, which was the resort of thieves,
opium fiends and drunken brawlers, is in
sore distress over a depleted treasury.
Ever since the brutal fight in neighboring
club-room, in which Harry Mcbride was
pounded 70 death for the edification of an
audience OF prize-ring patrons, the threat
ening attitude OF the police has kept re-
spectacle citizens from visiting the club
rooms and also prevented the usual
monthly prize-fght being given. By reason
OF these circumstances the gilded rooms of
the California Club have been almost de-
serted, except by the professional prize
hghter, who lounges about waiting for an
invitation to drink or possibly arrange a
match. 1t is well known that for weeks
past the lovers of brutal exhibitions who
direct the California Clubs affairs have
been doing herculean service to avert the
impending storm of financial disaster.
The club is heavily in debt, the members
are not paying their dues. and the concern
promises shortly to collapse. The board
OF directors have held several meetings to
devise means to pay outstanding debts,
but the outlook is not promising.

The Ex-Pugilist Meets His First Critical
Audience in New York.
NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The threatened as
sault by John L. Sullivan upon the drama
was made yesterday afternoon at Niblo's
Garden. and was repeated in the evening
The pugilist played part in the new mel
odrama Honest Hearts and Willing
Hands," and did it about as badly as
could have been expected. The matinee
audience was about half-sized, but at night
the house was crowded. Neither assem-
blage was disposed to consider the prize
lighters acting seriously.
Not only did the parquet people laugh at
him, but the smallest boys in the gallery,
away up beyond the reach OF his fists,
joined in the ridicule. His dramatic sea-
son. therefore, may depend for length on
his abstinence from anger as we'll as from
alcohol. He got through his first days
work as an actor without stepping over the
footlights and knocking out disrespectfuI

She seemed to feel better and safer as soon
as she was out of his arms, while he, with
nothing to hang on to, slouched few steps
across the stage with true Bowery lurch,
such as comedians are so fond of mimick-
ing, and then stood stock still with fixed
meaningless face, suggesting paresis, and
which may have come of stage fright.
OF course he had no eiocutionarv skill

third had him in blacksmith shop with

his head easily with the broad palm. and
while an expression that was almost human
came into his face, said hoarsely. Let me
think. The proposition struck the audi
ence as funny one, and the heartless
laughter was loud and long. But Sullivan
did not smile. John was falsely accused of
murder. and Tim compelled him, against
his brave inclination, TO hide for awhile.
1t was in this act that the pugiIist did his
best as player. 1t was not very good, but
it was vigorous, and when the curtain fell
there was almost sincere recall. In the
fourth act he had meeting with his sweet
heart, but the interview was only dozen
words long. His set-to with Lannon in the
last act was the only natural thing he did.
