How a Jewish Family was Rescued
 From Servitude in Siberia.
 BOSTON, Oct. 4.-Benl Sintzki, his wife and his son Moses, arrived here Friday on the Warren steamer Kansas. The family gave party on May 2S in their home at Trabe, Russia, in honor of the thirteenth birthday of Moses, who under Jewish GUS toms, had reached mans estate. Private parties being contrary to Russian laws the local police demanded large sum of hush money, which could not be given. The family without trial were started for Siberia. On the way the officer in com mand of the guard made a proposal to Sintzkis daughter, agreeing to release the whole family if she would submit. She was willing to sacrifice herself, but her father forbade her doing so. To make her yield she was strung up by the arms and the pain and fright caused her death. A section of nihilists heard of this outrage, succeeded in drugging their soldiers and executing the captain. The csptives were rescued and were assisted across the Prus- sian frontier. They were put aboard & vessel bound to Hull, Eng, whence they came to America.

TIRED oFn1s YOUNG WIFE.

Aged MT. Burr Tried matrtmany and
 Found That He Had Made a Mis-
 take.
 IMMIGRATION, N. Y., Oct. 4.-Nelson G.. Burr, seventy-two years old, was granted decree of divorce yesterday from his young wife, May A., who was a Miss Evans. He is wealthy philanthrophist residing in Binghamton, and was first brought into public notice some years ago bya gigantic matrimonial scheme, in which steamship was to be chartered for a grand European excursion, consisting only of couples on the verge of matrimony.
 One couple was to be united each day during the voyage. MT. Burr is also mu- sician, being the composer of the "Thun- der storm" About two years ago he be- came acquainted with Miss Evans, who was struggling to obtain 8 place on the operatic stage.
 Hesdissuaded her from this object, pro- posed marriage, and, notwithstanding the discrepancy in age, they were united and took up their residence in his handsome apartments. For time all went well, then MT. Burr began to Complain of un- due extravaganza on the part of his wife, and notified various merchants to refrain in future from giving her credit on his &C., count.
 He also found fault with the entertain ments extended by her to various dramatic troupes which visited the city, finally bringing suit for divorce through his counsel, Downs & Smith. Mrs. Burr brought counter suit through her sttor- ney.
 At the examination before Judge Arms much sensational testimony was taken, Mir. Burr producing two witnesses who testified to the fact that Mrs. Burr had asked them about the best method to dis pose of old Burr in order to gethis money. Charges of infidelity were also introduced
 MT. Burr says that he first met his wife at dentists in his block. She then con- fded in him her desire to become an act ress. He assured her of his willingness to aid her in any manner possible, but after ward endeavored to dissuade her, offering her instead place as housekeeper. She objected, saying that this would cause scandal and he then proposed marriage.
 They were welded after few weeks acquaintance. His wife, however, devel- oped tendency to indolence and began to again long for the stage. Since the divorce proceedings were commenced she has visit ed New York and will, it Is said, go on the operatic stage

MIR. DOwLING,s TROUBLE.

A Fair Havenerss Arrest and His
 Remonstrance.
 There was @ crowd on the sidewalk in front of Treat & Shepard's music store on Chapel street on Saturday evening lis- tening to the performance of g pianist inside. When Officer Daley ordered the crowd to move on most of them did SO. The music resulted in the arrest of George Bowling, a respected citizen who resides on Exchange street. He was taken to the police office, where Mir. Belden of Thomp- son & Belden gave bonds for his appear ance this morning.
 MT. Bowling claims that his arrest was unwarranted, as when he was arrested @ majority of the persons who formed the crowd had dispersed, consequently the side walk was not obstructed. MT. Bowling also stated that when told by the officer to move on he moved to the edge of the sidewalk in order to make room for per sons passing. MT. Bowling claims that he is quiet peacsable and inoffensive and that the officer should have more discre- tion than he manifested when he arrest ed him.

VIENNA, Oct. 4.-Count Emerioh Ester hay has been found drowned in the Danube, near Pressburg. He fell with his carriage, horses and driver over dam IS feet high. The driver, lad of seven teen years, escaped alive.He says the count compelled him to drive across a field leading to the river, in spite of his protests; but the fact that trunk known to have been fastened in the carriage when it started was found loose on the river bank, and partly rifed, points to robbery with the connivance of the coachman. The count leaves an immense fortune which he had hoarded during miserable life

Close of the League Season-Boston III
 the Champions.
 NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-The National league championship race for 1891 ended yesterday. In some quarters there is joy, in others nothing but sadness. The Bos- tons are champions. When the season opened each team had bright hopes of winning the pennant. AS time progressed it was seen that the pace W as too fast for some of them and they dropped back beaten. AS predicted before the season opened, the race narrowed down to a fight between the New Yorks, Chicagos and Boston.
 New York, as usual, made very poor start. The team did not strike its gait until May 19, and then just in twenty y-one days it climbed from seventh place to the leadership. From June II to July 1 in | elusive New York held first place by a varying lead, amounting one time to eighty-eight points. All through July New York and Chicago alternately led the pro- cession, but Chicago finally triumphed, and soon after Boston also passed New York l in the race. The feature of the season was Boston's plueky uphill spurt, winning the championship at the eleventh hour. Brooklyn finishes seventh and Pittsburg last. The record follows:
