pay the penalty of his crime by being
hanged next month. AT the hearing for
a new trial last week he told long story

mother and also of the horse and car

thought; he will be left there standing
and will starve to death" Being asked
why he had placed his brothers head in
the bottom of the buggy, he answered;
Because would not put my brothers
head into the bottom of a carriage. "
His delicacy in the latter case is only
equalled by that of the French criminal
who had murdered both his parents and
pleaded for leniency on the ground that
he was "a poor orphan -

Store Because of a Discovery.
Boston, Dec. 18.-Peter E. ellison,
who owns furniture store in this city,
is so fearful that there is an internal
machine among his stock of goods that
he has closed up his store for fear that

goods sold an odd looking box covered
with zinc. After the dynamiting of
Russell Sage's office ellison became sus-
picious of this box and caused it to be
examined by a druggist, who reported
that the box contained a small can,
with which four bottles were connected
by small tubes, the bottle being packed
in gun cotton. The druggist said that
the bottles appeared to contain nitro
glycerine.
In the box were also discovered sew
eral letters addressed to different per
sons in St. Petersburg, Berlin and Paris.
After the examination Gibson called
up IN the chief of police to remove the
box, but the chief refused, as also did
the chief of the fire department.. Gill
son has offered $40 to any one who will
remove the box, but so far there has APP
peared no one venturesome enough tic
earn the money.

Ostrander, who are confined in jail he re
on several indictments, charging tn g M
with embezzling the funds OF the Ul-
ster County Savings Institution.
Little change was noted in the ap-
pssrance of the prisoners when they
were brought into court. Their wives
sat beside them during the entire pro-
ceedings, and if looks go for anything,
their faces depicted greater anxiety than
those OF the prisoners sensational
episode occurred when the judge an-
bounced that the sure ties of Trumpbour
were not sufficient. His bride of but
few months gave way to her anguish in
bitter tears and, rising to her feet, i'm
plored the Judge in pitiful tones to be
merciful and release her hus band The
prisoner was very much affected by this
act of devotion on the part of his wife.
The examination to the sureties
lasted for several hours. Among those
accepted were three sisters and broth =
erin law OF Trumpbour. Objection
was made to Mrs. Martha G. Travers,
the mother-in-law, who wished to quail
ify in the sum of $1,000 The judge
asked that some one else be obtained to
go on the bond for the additional sum
of $l3. 900 necessary in place of Mrs.
Travers. This not being forthcoming,
the prisoner was returned to Jail.
Counselor Westbrook then made an
application to reduce Ostrand er's bail
from $40, 1000 to $50. 900. Judge Ed
wards ordered that this matter be taken
before some county judge and di smissed
the application.

toes of the dress reformers again. She
addressed an assemblage of them in
Chicago the other day, and in the
course of her remarks she took occasion
to remind the assembled sisters that,
while their reformed garments might be
very comfortable and very appropriate
for certain occasions, they were not
calculated to enhance the charms of the
fair sex. "When you go before a COM
paDy of men to seek their favor, discard
your dress reform garments and don
