ERIC WAS EUCHRED.
A Unique Attachment Levied on
His Official Pay.

Eric Olsen, clerk of a committee in
the house, was very sad man yester-
day. The cause of his sadness was the
disappearance of ten brand new S5 bills,
which vanished from before his eyes in
a manner which savored of legerde-
main. Erie has been drawing the nice
little sum of 50 per day during the seS-
sion of the legislature for services
rendered. Every ten days he has
always carefully brushed his hair and
walked into the office of the state treas
urer in the capitol, and seizing pen
has placed his signature upon the pay
rolls, receiving from the assistant
day afternoon Eric Dethought himself
of his salary and outlined box party
fer the Metropolitan. He walked into
the treasurer'S office, greeted the Off
clals with smile and placed his sigma
ture on the pay rolls. Assistant Treas
urer IverSon counted out fifty simoleonS
upon the desk. and as Eric was about
to take possession of Uncle Sans
specimens of engraving a massive
hand slid from behind the desk, and
hey. presto! the money was gone.
Here, that is my money" said Eric,
as he glared at the stalwart stranger
who stood with the notes in his hand.
81 guess not.f was the reply, ''unless
you can tell me where the flies go in
winter" But Eric was dumfounded
when the stranger opened his coat and
displayed the star of deputy sheriff of
Ramsey county, at the same time giving
Eric certain legal documents.
1t was case of attachment for an old
board bill due by Olson to Mrs. Eliza
beth Marcy for S303.75 for himself, and
for two friends $3.50, incurred when in
1887 and 1888 he was running the Labor
Echo in st. Paul and bowling for the
ScalpS of the capitalist and monopolist.
and posing as the champion of the weak
and oppressed. Mrs. Marcy claims that
Eric and his friends bankrupted her and
she had t, gle up her house. BY the
aid of Attorney Henry Johns she yester-
day secured an attachment, and will be
$50 in pocket owing to the shrewdneSs
of the deputy sheriff.
Eric was very mad, but as Eddie Foy.

was not in the city to tell him where the
flies go i'll winter. he was unable to re-
cover his fifty from the sheriff.

DENVER, Dec, 1l.-For the first time since
the beginning of the trial OF her husband for
the poisoning of Mrs Bnnahy Mrs DR.
Graves appeared in court Her presence had
decided effect in enlivening the spirits Of
the accused. The prosecution resumed their
case by calling Professor j. A. Sewell, the
chemist expert. He examined tho contents
of the bottle from which Mrs. Barnaby
drank and found that 2 + per cent. Of the
liquid therein was white arsenic.
Judge Macon, ~ counaelfo thelaccuaed
eaused q sensation at this point by pouring
some Of the liquid out Of the bottle into D
glass and drinking OF H. s'Humph,n ejAcu-
lated the lawyer as he turned the liquid
over TO the jury for inspection Aftar the
twelve men had smelled 81 The poison the
glass WAS banded TO DR. Graves, who shifted
il several times and then remarked with a
laugh, mo whisky about that, sure
The district attorney then stated that the
prosecution desired to subject Mrs Worrell,
who drank the poisoned liquid with Mrs.
Barnaby, to a medical examination The

influences which cut OF Mrs Barnaby's ex-
istence are al present threatening to end the

behalf Of the prosecution. Professor Hnines
said that he WAS the chemist for Rush Medi-
cal college. He had made chemical nnlaly.
sis Of the liquid in the bottle
At this point the defense objected To his
testimony because there was no evidence
that the solution he tested was part of the
solution from which Mrs Barnahy drank,
and because they did not have a chemical
expert at the analysis. The court overruled
the objection, and Professor Haines testified
that the deadly solution in the bottle was
arsenite Of potassium, which ia q compound
formed by a union Of arsenic or carbonate.
or bi-earbonate Of potassium. The arsenic
used in this case was not the arsenic OF com
mon merchandise, but white arsenic which
is seldom sold except 10 the medical profes.

the preparation which caused Mrs. Barn.

knowledge Of drugs Professor Haines
stated that white arsenic of all varieties il
the most rapid and deadly ia pursuing its
fatal course.

cent. was made up of this poisonous drug
Two grains, he said, would be sufficient l.
cause death, and its poisonous effects would
be felt within thirty minutes after it hac
been taken into the system. There was ne
alcohol in the solution and no whisky haf
even been placed in the bottle The corl
was not stained with any substance but thl
poisonous contents Of the bottle
Upon cross-examination the witness etatet
that an ounce Of water boiled with thl

entirely have dissolved the drug and tha

avenue, the center Of a crowd Of newspaper
men and sensation hunters.
Suddenly the suspense was ended, and
"Here he comesl" went up from the crowd

stood giant feet 4 inches in height. mus
cular as IN athlete and bearded clear to the

and an imposing picture be made as he leis-
urely started up toward Third avenue.
When the officers approached Stokes showed
no disposition TO strike a blow He was vis-
